[156] Undercurrents
When the three lepers arrived at the hospital, they were almost not beaten by their cousin-in-law. In the end, he was stopped by his cousin, who asked him what he was doing, and he took out the copper coin and transferred what Zhong Kui said to her like this.
The three lepers gave the copper coin to their cousin nervously, and wanted to inquire about the child's situation, but when they saw that their cousin's face was really gloomy, she was so frightened that she swallowed the words in her mouth and swallowed them back into her stomach. The grief-stricken cousin twisted the shiny copper coin in her hand, put it into her coat pocket in disbelief, didn't bother to take care of the three lepers, and went straight into the ward and closed the door with her backhand.
The three lepers, who were extremely guilty, looked up in frustration and glanced at the door of the ward without a trace of color, and walked out of the hospital door unhappy.
He thought as he walked, and the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out; My cousin and cousin-in-law are still young, and at most they will have a few more children, so why do they have to hate me? Besides; It is natural for a woman to give birth to a child, just like a piece of, why should she treat the child as precious as a baby?
Thinking of getting angry, I stomped my feet and took out my shoes. Along the way, he subconsciously put it into his coat pocket, and felt that the pocket was empty, and he suddenly remembered that he had given the copper coin to his cousin just a few minutes ago.
The three lepers froze; I gave the copper coin to my cousin just now, what about myself? Will some ghost come looking for you tonight? Thinking of ghosts, I can't help but fight a cold war.
It's all bad things about the dead baby, think of the baby. The baby's appearance is repeatedly overlapped into the mind, and the question must be the baby, what is the origin of the baby? Why did it suddenly disappear?
The three lepers suddenly found that they had become smarter, and he was very depressed and depressed a few minutes ago, but he suddenly came to his senses. Thinking comes alive; I'll have to go to the ghost hunter again and give me a life-saving copper coin.
Walking along the streets, too lazy to look at those familiar and unfamiliar faces. He trotted to the ghost hunting store, but what he didn't expect was that he was so tired from running from the hospital here that he couldn't find anyone, and even the shop was closed so that only the cracks of the wooden planks remained.
Unhappy, he walked past the ghost hunting store with his head down, and someone shouted: "Three lepers." The drooping head was raised lazily, and it was the boss of the paper shop Murong shouting.
The pestle was in place, her hands crossed into her sleeves, and Yan Yan looked at each other with a demeanor: "What?" ”
"Come here~ Come here." Boss Murong beckoned to him mysteriously.
Did you call Lao Tzu to give benefits in the past? He glanced at the other with his eyebrows downcast, wondering what his purpose was in calling him in the past. Pretending to be very embarrassed, he took a small step and said, "I'm busy, just say what you have to say!" ”
"Yo! Dead Laipi, what are you busy with, did the two or two horse pee corrode your brain? Boss Murong's wife flashed out, snorting melon seeds in one hand, with a mocking sneer on her face, and said with a knife in her mouth.
"Hi Hi! There's nothing busy, just because ......" He laughed dryly, and hurriedly braked when he got to his mouth. No matter how you say this, it's your own fault, and it's a family matter, and it can't be leaked, otherwise how can your nephew be a person in the future.
"Because of what? Call you to come and talk, the old lady has melon seeds here. This fat fat woman looked at him with a sly smile.
The three lepers looked at Boss Murong who was cleaning up the counter, and then glanced at the fat woman, who wanted to eat the melon seeds on the counter, so he changed his original intention. He walked a few steps and leaned over.
When I saw the melon seeds, I stretched out my hand and wanted to grab them.
When it was too late, the fat woman's sharp eyes were cold, and she stretched out her hand coldly, and slapped it on the back of the three lepers' hands.
He retracted his hand, and for a long time he felt a cramp in the back of his hand. Mu Ne glanced at the two of them, opened his mouth and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"Good boy, I called you here to thank you." Boss Murong said with a smile.
"What?"
"You're really corrupted by alcohol, yesterday you went to sue and it worked, didn't you see that the house was closed?" The fat woman smiled so much that the flesh on her face was piled up.
Truth; The three lepers think that this fat woman is not as good-looking as vanilla, but this fat woman is a powerful person on this street, and no one dares to provoke the lord.
"There are no two Jiao, there is no one with him." Boss Murong said sneeringly. His hands and feet still didn't stop, he cleaned up the counter one by one, and his mouth was not idle, and he continued to chatter: "Three lepers, if that shop goes out of business, his things can be transferred to me at a low price, you can be a middleman, and I will give you the corresponding remuneration." ”
The three lepers finally caught a small handful of melon seeds, sent one in their mouths, and flexibly pulled out the skin of the melon seeds with their tongues. Mei Zizi chewed the tender melon seeds, her eyes rolled slowly, and she pondered the boss's words.
"If it is done this time, it will not only be a matter of 20 yuan of remuneration, but your aunt wants to give you a daughter-in-law?" Boss Murong tempted.
"What do you think I'm going to do?" The three lepers suddenly became interested.
"His shop is closed anyway, it's a pity that those things are thrown away, you go and tell him, the whole store will be transferred to me, give him this number."
"What did my uncle pay me?"
"You are indispensable, the old lady sees pity and thinks about finding a daughter-in-law for you?" The fat woman threw him a very stingy smile.
Leaving from Boss Murong's shop, the three lepers lifted their spirits and walked towards the market.
The bazaar is noisy and bustling.
Those who traded carried a burlap bag in their hands, and the two bad old men who traded each stretched out a hand and groped for a long time in the burlap bag. From the constantly changing expressions of the two, it is not difficult to see that the two of them are trading in a burlap bag.
Melon seeds are very delicious, it was originally a woman's hobby, but the three leprosy just like it. I ate a handful at Boss Murong's shop just now, and accidentally teased out the gluttonous worms, so he didn't have anything else to do when he came to the market, just to buy melon seeds for two cents and go back.
A woman in front of her hugged a child and appeared in the crowd of people, and the eyes of the three lepers lit up. Isn't that the child the baby who was lost at my cousin's house? How could this baby who caused trouble be held by that woman?
didn't have time to taste the melon seeds that had just arrived, so he trotted and hurried to chase after the woman holding the child.
The eyes of the three lepers are focused on the woman holding the child, constantly drilling in the cracks of the pile, and at the moment he completely ignores the old, the young, the short, the fat, the thin, the male, the female. The women holding the children were stopped by him and threw him a sentence; "Neurotic" turned around and left.
Several women who were holding children were denied. Discouraged, he decided not to go to the baby anymore, and was ready to set out to do what Boss Murong had explained.
Just when he gave up this idea, it was strange that the woman holding the child appeared dozens of meters in front of him again.
