The man seemed to be waiting for us, and he stood at the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I almost bumped into him.

I was startled, and when I looked closely, it was Xue Shouwen. At this time, he was standing in the middle of the courtyard, staring at me and the fat sea with a pair of eyes.

I wanted to sneak back into my room, pretend nothing had happened, and find a way to find out something from him the next day. I didn't expect to be blocked by others as soon as I came back.

"Big ...... Uncle, you haven't slept yet? I snorted for a long time and said a word.

Xue Shouwen nodded, "Didn't you sleep either?" Didn't I tell you not to go out? ”

"We ...... We wanted to go to the toilet but couldn't find ...... So...... "I don't really want Xue Shouwen to know our details, so I thought about saying a few nonsense words to fool the past."

But I don't think even children can deceive the nonsense I made up.

Xue Shouwen listened, shook his head and sighed, and asked, "What did you see?" ”

I knew I couldn't hide it, so I just spread it out.

"Uncle, we've seen what we should see. I saw the send-off team that went out of the village in the middle of the night, and I also saw Jin Po......"

Xue Shouwen's face changed, he glanced at me and Fat Dahai's faces a few times, and asked tentatively, "Then you...... He ......"

I stepped forward, grabbed Xue Shouwen's hand and said, "Uncle, it seems that you are an insider, my friend has fallen into the way, please help him." ”

Xue Shouwen was stunned for a moment and asked the reason.

I told Xue Shouwen what happened after we followed out of the village.

Xue Shouwen stomped his feet after listening: "You guys...... Let you not go out, you just won't listen. You are Quangui's friends, and Quangui has been telling me on the phone to let me take care of you. But you ......."

I waved my hand: "Uncle, I don't blame you for this. We're too curious, so let's save my friend first. ”

Xue Shouwen greeted us: "Let's talk about it first." ”

As he spoke, he opened the courtyard door, looked out, and closed the door again.

When we got inside, it was early in the morning, but I wasn't sleepy. But Fat Dahai dozed off twice from time to time, and his spirit was not very good.

"Uncle, is the fat man's situation out of body?"

Xue Shouwen smiled bitterly: "You think too highly of me, I have worked in this village for half my life, and I am a farmer who digs food in the soil, how can I understand what kind of soul I have?" ”

I thought about it, but I said that I was still too anxious, and the fat man had an accident, and I was a little sick and rushed to the doctor. If Xue Shouwen understands this, then Xue Quangui doesn't need to ask me to break that murderous mansion.

However, Xue Shouwen changed his words and said, "But I think he may have been caught by Jin Po." ”

"Caught by Jin Po? What's going on? ”

Xue Shouwen asked, "When you came, did you see something hanging on the big willow tree at the entrance of the village?" ”

I nodded and said with a wry smile, "Not only did I see it, but we also opened a red cloth pocket on it." ”

Xue Shouwen stomped his foot again: "I'll just say it." Alas, you're in big trouble...... That...... Can you just look at that thing? Blame me, blame me, I guess you're almost there, so I'll go out of the village to meet you

You guys. When I saw you in the car, I thought you had just arrived, but who knew you were already ...... I'll just go out a little early......"

"Isn't that a paper figure in the red cloth pocket? What is there to be afraid of, the customs of your place are really strange. Fat Dahai sat down and rested for a while, and his complexion recovered, and then he began to complain again.

Xue Shouwen said: "That's the custom of our place." That's Jin Po marrying her daughter...... You looked at the pocket, did you take the money in it? ”

I shook my head: "I didn't take it, we put it back after we saw it." ”

Xue Shouwen looked at the fat sea again: "What about you?" ”

"I ...... I didn't take ...... either" The fat man looked a little wrong, and said hesitantly.

Xue Shouwen asked again: "You really didn't take it?" ”

"I didn't ...... No...... the fat man's eyes were a little dilated, and he replied very simply.

My heart moved, and I walked over to rummage through the fat man's pocket.

The fat man wouldn't let me move, and after a few tears, a hundred dollars fell out of his pocket.

I grabbed the money and asked, "Didn't I tell you to put it back?" You still took the money? ”

"This ...... This is the money I left over to buy a kitchen knife. "The fat man still doesn't admit it.

Xue Shouwen walked over, grabbed the money, and unfolded it under the lamp for me to see. I saw that the money was densely filled with runes. We were in poor light under the trees and didn't see any of these things. Apparently this is not ordinary money, but it has been cursed.

I yelled at the fat sea: "Dead fatty, you let me down too much." ”

Fat Dahai knew that he couldn't hide it now, and said to me: "Boss, I'll put all that change back." It's just this one, I want to mail it back to my mother, so that I can buy a few more bottles of medicine...... Sorry ......"

I patted Fat Dahai on the shoulder: "Fatty, tell me when you don't have money in the future, don't do this." ”

The fat man nodded. I asked Xue Shouwen again: "Uncle, what will happen if you take this money?" ”

Xue Shouwen glanced at the fat sea and said, "It is estimated that he will be selected as the son-in-law of the golden woman......

"What's that?" Fat Dahai was stunned, stood up from the stool, and asked, "What about ...... That minx...... Are you kidding? ”

Xue Shouwen sneered twice: "How can I have time to joke with you." It's true......"

I thought about it for a moment, and when we heard the sound of blowing and blowing last night, we really wondered if someone was marrying a wife. Now that I hear Xue Shouwen say this, it's really like that. Why do you send your relatives at night, because it is a secret marriage.

But when I thought about it again, something was still wrong, so I asked, "No, uncle." Isn't Jin Po's daughter Qiaomei? She is not dead, how can she be worthy of a secret marriage? ”

When I thought about it at this time, the third uncle seemed to have told me about the secret marriage, which can be regarded as a custom.

Underworld marriage, also known as underworld marriage, is to find a spouse for the dead. Some boys and girls die before they get married. The old people would think that if they didn't marry him, his ghost would make trouble and disturb the house. Therefore, we must hold a secret marriage ceremony for him, and find a suitable secret marriage partner to achieve him

When the souls of men become husband and wife, it is better to bury them together, so as not to have lonely graves in the fields of the male and female families.

Because in the family, the appearance of a lonely grave will affect the prosperity of the descendants of the family, and this influence may involve several generations.

Xue Shouwen waved his hand: "I don't understand any of this." I only know that it is rumored in the village that the reason why Qiao Mei is crazy is because of that marriage and later Jin Po's interference. So Jin Po wants to match Qiao Mei with another Lang Jun, and she also wants to cure Qiao Mei's madness. In fact, Jin Po is in our village and has a high prestige. Almost every family in our family has a child delivered by her hand, so when something happens to her family, we are all anxious. As you can see, the people in our village escorted the family out of the village, and it was also the villagers' spontaneous initiative. ”

I glanced at Xue Shouwen and asked, "I asked you yesterday, what does that Qiao Mei mean by shouting in her mouth, one or two, and two more, you didn't answer me at the time, you know the details, right?" ”

Xue Shouwen nodded: "That's it." Since you asked, this little fat man had an accident again, I'll tell you. How to deal with this matter, you can see and do it yourself, right? I just mentioned that the red cloth bag hanging on the big willow tree was put by the golden woman. It is said that when a destined offspring passes through there, they will be attracted by the red cloth pocket. There is Qiaomei's dowry money, as well as her birthday and paper figures, whoever opens it and receives the dowry money will be registered. In fact, before you, there have been several juniors who have been recruited......"

I was stunned for a moment and asked, "What does it mean to be hit?" Since you have to continue to look for it, then you can't say that those descendants have not been able to match the secret marriage? ”

Xue Shouwen nodded: "It seems that Qiao Mei didn't fall in love." ”

"What happened to those descendants?"

Xue Shouwen glanced at me, stopped talking, and finally made up his mind and pointed in the direction of the back mountain: "They ...... It's all buried in the back mountain......"
