Chapter 104: Xiao Cui Goes Home

After more than ten days, my grandfather and Xiaocui finally arrived at the ground in Yanjin County.

The two of them walked for nearly a day and came to Sanwangzhuang, however, my grandfather did not enter the village, and took Xiaocui into a village near Sanwangzhuang, there is a private school in this village, and the private school is also the place where it was taught in ancient times.

Xiaocui was illiterate, so she asked my grandfather curiously, what did she do with the letter, what was written in it? My grandfather said, you will understand when you get to Sanwangzhuang.

In the evening, the two of them came to Sanwangzhuang, standing at the east end of the village, my grandfather raised his hand and pointed to the northwest corner of the village, and said to Xiaocui: "Xiaocui, our family is in that location, our father's name is Liu Yi, our mother's name is Cai Qingjun, you will inquire after you get there, everyone in the village knows our parents." ”

When Xiaocui heard my grandfather's words, she felt a little wrong, and asked my grandfather with a puzzled face: "Brother, aren't you going home with me?" ”

My grandfather shook his head with a wistful expression, "I'd better not go back yet." ”

"Why?" Xiaocui asked.

"No why, you'll know when you get home, I'm not going home now, it's because of that ghost monkey, it's still following us until now, I'm its enemy, if I go home now, it will definitely follow me home, my father is okay to say, what if I let that ghost monkey scare my mother?"

When Xiao Cui heard my grandfather say this, she seemed to think of the terrifying appearance of the ghost monkey, and her face immediately changed.

My grandfather continued: "You go home first, and when I catch the ghost monkey, I will definitely go home to find you, and then we will reunite as a family and live a good life...... By the way, when you get home, show the letter to my mother, and it is very clear that my parents are good people, and they will treat you like their own daughter. ”

When Xiaocui heard this, her eyes turned red, and she said in a hoarse voice: "Brother, then I won't go back, I will follow you wherever you go." ”

"How's that going to work?" My grandfather raised his hand and touched Xiaocui's head, thought for a while and said: "My parents are just such a son as me, now that they are older, and I am not by their side, you go back, you should do your filial piety for your brother, and take care of your parents for your brother, okay?" ”

"Hmm" Xiao Cui nodded fiercely when she heard my grandfather say this.

Xiao Cui took out the letter that my grandfather had given her from her arms, held it in her hand and looked at the strange village in front of her, and mustered up the courage to step in.

She didn't go far, she couldn't help but look back, and saw that the village was empty, my grandfather had already left, looking at the empty village, Xiaocui suddenly had a sense of fear of being abandoned, and tears couldn't help but fall.

Xiaocui took the letter to the northwest corner of Sanwangzhuang, and found a villager who had just opened his mouth to inquire about my great-grandfather, and the villager immediately warmly brought her to the door of my great-grandfather's house.

At this time, it was just time for dinner, my great-grandfather and grandmother Wang Xiaojin, and the three of them were sitting around the dining table eating, and the three of them were stunned when they saw Xiaocui at the door.

Xiaocui's appearance at this time is quite embarrassing, just imagine, she didn't change her clothes, she slept in the grass nest all day long, and the hair on her body and face was conceivable, and she was no different from asking for food.

The villager took Xiaocui to the door of my great-grandfather's house and went back, at this time, only Xiaocui was left timidly standing at the door, my great-grandfather thought she was a begger at first, so he hurriedly picked up two steamed buns from the dining table, walked to the door and handed them to her.

Xiao Cui looked at the white and tender steamed bun and swallowed her saliva, but instead of reaching out to take it, she handed the letter in her hand to my great-grandfather, and said in a low voice, "My brother asked me to give this letter to ...... To the mother. ”

Xiaocui's words, my great-grandfather's whole family looked inexplicable, my great-grandmother stood up from the chair, and asked softly: "Girl, who are you looking for, who do you want to send this letter to?" ”

Xiaocui glanced at my great-grandmother with a weak heart, "Give it to my mother......"

"Who is your mother, is it from our Sanwangzhuang?" My great-grandmother asked again.

Xiaocui looked at all three of them, and said timidly: "My father's name is Liu Yi, and my mother's name is Cai Qingjun......"

"What's your father's name?" Xiaocui's words almost caused my great-grandfather to drop the steamed bun in his hand to the ground, and he turned around and looked at my great-grandmother, this, when did there be such a big girl?

My great-grandmother felt that there was something strange in this, so she hurried up to Xiaocui and took the letter from her.

As soon as I opened it, before I could read the content, my great-grandmother's body shook, turned her head and said to my great-grandfather excitedly: "It's Bingshou, this is Bingshou's handwriting!" ”

As soon as Wang Xiaojin heard the letter from my grandfather, he hurriedly got up from the chair, rushed to my great-grandmother like a trot, and grabbed my great-grandmother's hand holding the letter, "Mother, is this a letter from Xianggong, what is written on it, is he okay, you can read it quickly, read it quickly." ”

Messire? Hearing this, Xiaocui raised her head and glanced at Wang Xiaojin suspiciously, and my grandmother found that her face changed slightly, and her eyes became very complicated.

Although my great-grandfather was not as excited as Wang Xiaojin at this time, my great-grandmother found that the two steamed buns in his hand kept trembling.

My great-grandmother looked at Xiaocui, then at Wang Xiaojin and my great-grandfather, took a deep breath, turned her gaze to the letter in her hand, and then read in her mouth: "Parents and adults are above, and unfilial children kneel and worship......"

The first half of my grandfather's letter is about himself, saying that he is very good now, so that my great-grandfather and great-grandmother don't have to worry, and the second half focuses on Xiaocui, saying that Xiaocui was saved by himself from Xiangma, and now that his parents are dead and homeless, he recognizes Xiaocui as his own sister, and hopes that his parents can treat him as a sister like their own daughter. At the end of the letter, my grandfather said that he still had something to do at this time, and when he was done, he would go home and ask his parents to ask Wang Xiaojin for his guilt.

After reading the letter, my great-grandmother burst into tears, and Wang Xiaojin cried with my great-grandmother, because looking at Xiaocui's appearance of asking for food, it is not difficult to imagine what my grandfather is like now.

When my great-grandfather saw my great-grandmother shed tears, he said unhappily, "What are you crying, this is his own doing." ”

Subsequently, the whole family got busy, taking dishes and chopsticks for Xiaocui, and boiling bath water, Wang Xiaojin also took out a few pieces of his clothes for Xiaocui to wear temporarily. Because Xiao Cui came in a hurry, there was no extra bed at home, so he made a bunk for Xiao Cui in the room where the sundries were placed. My great-grandfather said that I would find a carpenter in the village to make a bed for the child.

After a busy job, when it was time to beat the shift, my great-grandfather went out to play, and there were only three women left in the house, my great-grandmother Wang Xiaojin and Xiaocui.

At this time, Xiaocui ate and took a shower and changed into clean clothes, and my great-grandmother saw that this little girl was also very handsome, and she liked it very much.

Then, the three women sat together, and my great-grandmother asked Xiaocui, "How old is it?" Xiao Cui replied, "Fifteen." Then he asked her, "What's your surname?" said Xiao Cui, "your surname is Liu." My great-grandmother laughed when she heard this, and said, "It seems that this is fate." ”

Later, my great-grandmother asked Xiaocui why Bingshou refused to go home, where he had gone these days, and what he had done.

Xiaocui was reluctant to say it at first, because my grandfather had explained and didn't let her say so much, but she couldn't stand the repeated questions of my great-grandmother and Wang Xiaojin, and finally, Xiaocui told my great-grandmother and Wang Xiaojin everything she knew about my grandfather, 1510, including the fact that their grandfather was now being sought revenge by ghost monkeys on the street.

After listening to this, my great-grandmother's eyes turned red again, frowned lightly and sighed, and asked Xiaocui how the injury on my grandfather's body was now, Xiaocui said that it was all right, and my great-grandmother was relieved, and then got up from the chair and said to the two girls that she was tired and went back to the room to rest.

After my great-grandmother returned to the room, Wang Xiaojin dragged Xiaocui and asked me about the details of my grandfather's marriage with Shan Xue'er when he was in Xiangma Cottage, and asked Xiaocui how the relationship between my grandfather and Shan Xue'er was, what happened to the two of them, Xiaocui said, my grandfather didn't pay attention to Shan Xue'er at all, and the marriage was also forced by those people, Wang Xiaojin listened, so he put his mind at ease and went back to sleep with Xiaocui.

When my great-grandfather came home after the fight, my great-grandmother was waiting for him in the room, and my great-grandmother was not sleeping, but was fiddling with the clothes that my grandfather was wearing. Sister-in-law ||Pen |―The last ghost hunter

When my great-grandfather came home, my great-grandmother repeated what Xiaocui said to my great-grandfather.

After hearing this, my great-grandfather sighed, still the same sentence as before: "This child is not a housekeeper!" ”

Since the day of the fight, Liu Xiaocui has officially become a member of our family, calling my great-grandfather father, calling my great-grandmother mother, my great-grandfather and my great-grandmother, and treating her as her own daughter.

A few years later, my aunt reached the age of marriage, but she refused to marry, because my grandfather was still not at home at that time, so she said, when my brother comes back, I will remarry, and when my brother is not at home, I will stay by my father's side to do my filial piety for him.

When my great-grandfather and his wife heard her words, they were moved and helpless, and in their hearts, they inevitably blamed my grandfather again, as if every girl who had a relationship with him owed him a debt in her previous life, and she came to repay her debts in this life.

It wasn't until my grandfather got married again when he was forty years old that my aunt got married, and she was thirty-five years old that year.

My aunt is home at this time, so where did my grandfather go at this time? -The Last Ghost Hunter-
