In the evening, dark clouds were thick.

The sky was originally clear, but it looked gloomy.

It seems like it's going to rain.

Tang Shishi was still sleeping.

It seems, constantly having nightmares.

Chu Xiaoye sat next to her, accompanying her while cultivating.

When it's getting dark.

Tang Shishi finally woke up.

She opened her hazy eyes and looked at the figure sitting on the edge of the bed.

After a while, Fang came to his senses.

Outside.

In the small courtyard, Chu Xiaoya was talking to her grandmother.

The two of them were like a pair of old foxes and little foxes, talking to each other and whispering.

Old Man Chu sat not far away, speechless.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew.

There seemed to be a few drops of rain falling on the sky.

Old Man Chu stood up, walked out of the small courtyard, and looked to the west where the sun was setting.

The sky there, made up by black clouds, like a giant beast crawling in the sky, was slowly crawling over, gradually filling the entire sky.

"How can you say that if the sky changes, the sky will change. In the weather forecast, it is clearly reported that it is a sunny day. ”

The old man's face was full of doubts, and suddenly he heard a strange noise overhead.

When I looked up, it was a bronze mirror that hung above the gate all the year round, and it shook a few times under the blowing of the evening breeze.

This bronze mirror has been around for a long time.

As for what it will do, he doesn't know exactly what it is.

I only heard that it can ward off evil spirits and drive away yin.

As for the truth or falsehood, who will believe it?

However, most of the villagers' homes have a side.

And above the beams of their halls, there was another side, facing the doorway.

It's an ordinary copper mirror.

Even if it's given to the rags for free, people don't bother to ask for it.

Chen seemed to have finished discussing something with Chu Xiaoya, and was very happy, and called out to him: "Old man, it's time to cook, kill a chicken at night, and make up for Xiaoye and Xiaoshi." ”

"Make-up?"

Old Man Chu turned around and looked at her with a funny expression.

What is this old woman thinking, can he not know?

"Good Ratcha. ”

Anyway, it's all for his grandson, he doesn't dare to talk much, just honestly go and kill chickens and fill firewood.

Chu Xiaoya helped pick the vegetables and said, "Grandma, I haven't finished the chicken soup at noon." My brother and Xiaoshi don't seem to like it. ”

Chen brushed the pot in the kitchen and said, "Then wait until they get up tomorrow morning to eat, or eat when they are hungry in the middle of the night." Your brother is thin, he must make up for it, otherwise, the little girl will dislike him. ”

Chu Xiaoye seemed to understand and said, "Grandma, why do I think you have something to say?"

"Ahem!"

Old Man Chu, who was about to catch chickens, hurriedly coughed, glared at the kitchen, and said, "Old woman, don't talk nonsense, be careful to teach Xiaoya badly, your son will come back to you to settle accounts." ”

Chen smiled bitterly and said, "I hope he comes back to settle accounts with me, he is busy with this and that all day long, and it's not too far, he hasn't come back for more than half a year, right?"

Old Man Chu was silent for a while, not daring to say more.

Chu Xiaoya was a little embarrassed and said, "Grandma, my dad ......"

Chen smiled: "It's okay, I know that your family is under a lot of pressure and you still owe more than 100,000 yuan." Men, you have to be responsible, your sister has not yet married, your brother has not married a daughter-in-law, and you will need money in the future, your father, work hard. ”

Chu Xiaoya picked the vegetables and said with a low expression: "Grandma, I will graduate from high school in the future and I don't want to go to college, it's so expensive." ”

Chen sighed and did not speak.

At this time, Chu Xiaoye walked out of the house and hurriedly said, "Xiaoya, what are you talking nonsense? You see that I am in college, how can you not go to college?"

Chu Xiaoya glanced at him and said, "Brother, are you awake, where is Xiaoshi?"

Tang Shishi walked out with a red face and said, "Xiaoya, in the future, we will go to the same university, I ...... I'll ask my dad to help you pay for your tuition. ”

Chu Xiaoya smiled and said, "Your father still owes so much money to the bank, take care of yourself first." ”

Chu Xiaoye walked in front of her and said, "Xiaoya, you don't have to worry about the tuition, my tuition is paid by my grandparents." I know, your family has helped a bit, too. In the future, my brother will cover the tuition fees for you to go to college, and I guarantee that you will go to a good university. Just study hard and don't think about it all day. Even if the family owes a lot of money, as long as you can get in, it is absolutely impossible not to let you go. I'm sure my aunt and uncle thought the same way. ”

Chen said in the kitchen: "Yes, Xiaoya, your brother is right, as long as you can be admitted, even if we borrow money, we will let you go to school." ”

Chu Xiaoya lowered her head to pick vegetables and didn't say anything.

Chu Xiaoye looked at her expression, and said secretly in her heart: It seems that you have to think of a way as soon as possible to make some money openly, at least let them see that it is reasonable and they will not worry.

Why don't you grab Mia's hotel or Alice's restaurant?

Of course, as long as he said a word, they would definitely offer it with both hands.

You will even buy one get one free and give it to your body.

"Brother, are you comfortable sleeping?"

Chu Xiaoya looked at him, meaning something authentic.

Tang Shishi squatted next to her, helping her pick vegetables, her head lowered, and her face was as red as an apple.

Chu Xiaoye ignored her, raised his head, and looked at the black cloud in the sky.

At this time, the black clouds have filled the entire sky.

So, at the beginning of the night, it was as dark as the middle of the night.

Dinner was made quickly.

The lights were on in the hall, and it was as bright as day.

The family gathered around the table and began to eat.

Chu Xiaoya personally filled two bowls of fragrant chicken soup, put them in front of Chu Xiaoye and Tang Shishi, and said with a smile: "Drink more, three bowls per person, whoever doesn't finish drinking is not allowed to eat." ”

Tang Shishi looked at the delicious soup full of chicken fat in front of her, and said with a look of embarrassment: "Xiaoya, I can't finish drinking." ”

Chu Xiaoya snorted: "If you can't finish drinking, I'll let you sleep alone tonight." There are mosquitoes, cockroaches, rats, and maybe ghosts. ”

Tang Shishi was frightened and immediately picked up the bowl and drank it.

Old Man Chu glared at him and reprimanded: "Xiaoya, don't talk nonsense! ghosts or something, don't mention it again." ”

The elderly seem to be very taboo about these.

Chu Xiaoya stuck out her tongue and didn't dare to say any more.

The house is bright, but the outside is dark.

At this time, the night outside was already dark, and I couldn't see my fingers.

Above the night sky, there were no stars and no moon.

Only the black clouds that covered the entire sky rolled silently like thick smoke.

Outside the small courtyard.

It's pitch black.

Suddenly, a cloudy wind blew.

The bronze mirror hanging on the door began to sway from side to side again, making a "creaking" sound.

The dusty mirror, like a calm lake with stones thrown into, suddenly flashed and rippled in circles.

On the blurred mirror, a black shadow suddenly appeared!

Immediately, the black shadow grew bigger and clearer, and suddenly it seemed to be attached to the mirror!

It's a big white and gloomy face!

"Click-"

Above the mirror, a crack suddenly appeared!
