Chapter 099: Capricious
"Qingmei, you should know my heart, I can't allow you to be hurt and wronged, and now I can't tell you why I can't worship the ancestors of the Ji family. But ......"
"Don't but, you tell me, why, why, I want to know all about you. Your sister said, "Why didn't you wake up for a month, and the ancestors of your family were hanging in that house, so why can't I worship?" β
Ji Zimo looked at Su Qingmei's angry eyes, with a crying tone, and even more because of what she said just now, he broke out in a cold sweat. This season Shanshan is really not a fuel-efficient lamp. What does she want to do! Why did you tell Qingmei about this?
"No, Qingmei, listen to me, there's no such thing, it's all made up by her." Zimo tried his best to defend himself, but he didn't want to tell the matter of the Ji family's old house.
Su Qingmei stared at Ji Zimo with tears in his eyes. His eyes were hazy with tears, and his appearance was blurred, and she didn't want to say it, so she hid her face in front of him and ran away in a whimper.
Ji Zimo couldn't let Su Qingmei act alone, he was careless just now and didn't give Ji Shanshan a preventive shot in advance. This girl is really vindictive, when she was a child, she always used her grandmother as a cover to scare him, and when she grew up, she did the same, trying to embarrass him.
Ji Shanshan has always said that the Ji family favors Ji Zimo, and everything good is given to him, and all bad things are left to her.
Ji Zimo felt that her words were just the opposite, such as the old mansion, which was all in Ji Shanshan's name, and it was left to her by her grandfather. Then let people send him out, and stay outside for more than ten years.
This time he returned to the Ji family's old house, not what Ji Zimo meant, but he frequently received calls from his sister Ji Shanshan, so he came to think that he wanted to bring Qingmei back to have a look. By the way, she was asked to meet her in-laws, but unfortunately, her parents went to play when he came back.
In the darkness of the night, the mountain peaks are blurred, and the distance between heaven and earth is confused. Ji Zimo was afraid that Su Qingmei would get lost, so he looked for it in the direction she ran, and he shouted as he ran: "Qingmei." β
His shouts echoed in the empty valley, the wind was blowing, woo ~ woo ~ the echo of the wind in the valley was like the cry of a woman's mourning relatives. At first glance, it feels creepy. Ji Zimoyin quietly snorted, not daring to shout Su Qingmei loudly.
In the distance, a gray mist swept in, gradually thickening and curling in an enveloping shape. Delusionally, the fog is like a giant living beast, grinning and rushing towards the old mansion with its teeth and claws.
Su Qingmei didn't run far, she ran along the way she came. After a while, the old mansion appeared in sight, Ji Zimo hadn't chased after her, she couldn't help but glance back, except for the gray mist in her eyes, there was no trace of him.
Su Qingmei stood in place, wanting to wait for Ji Zimo to go back to the old mansion together.
"Sister-in-law, don't stay outside at night." Ji Shanshan is like a different person this time, with a quiet smile on her face, pulling her hair, wearing a slim black evening dress and light makeup. At this time, she is not at all like the unreasonable, unruly and willful eldest lady before, just like a young woman with thousands of manners.
Su Qingmei was even more stunned, and said in her heart that Ji Shanshan was really a rare beauty embryo in the world.
"Shanshan, I'm waiting for your brother."
"Brother is a native, you may not be afraid that he will be lost, let's go back and have dinner." Ji Shanshan affectionately grabbed Su Qingmei's arm, and still said softly with a smile.
Su Qingmei didn't believe what she saw in front of her, thinking how arrogant the eldest lady of the Ji family was before, this would be like a sister to her. Could it be that she is playing some tricks again! Or do you want to play tricks on yourself again?
Su Qingmei was guessing, and was forced into the old mansion by Ji Shanshan. As soon as the person entered, he suddenly heard a strange voice from outside, "Woo ~ Woo woo." β
"What is it?"
"Echoes of the valley."
The convection echo of the valley wind? Su Qingmei remembered the nightmare coldly, so he hurriedly asked Ji Shanshan what she meant when she said that she couldn't stay outside at night.
Ji Shanshan turned around and closed the door, let go of the hand holding Su Qingmei, hugged her elbows, frowned and said: "Halloween is coming, we live in the mountains and wilderness, although there are no beasts that want to eat people, we still have to be careful, there is a large unmanaged grave on the other side of the woods." β
"You mean there's a ghost?" Su Qingmei felt that the special similarity between the brothers and sisters of the Ji family was this, pretending to be a ghost and always telling some alarmist things, which made people very nervous.
Ji Shanshan nodded undeniably and said: "Yes, we have a legend here, on the occasion of Halloween, there is a white flickering lantern floating in the air, and if it floats there, it will be dead." β
Although he was prepared that the other party would tell some scary stories, Ji Shanshan still felt a chill crawling from his back to the back of his head.
The heavy sound of the wooden door came, Ji Shanshan quickly glanced at the door, and said to Su Qingmei in surprise: "My brother is back." β
Su Qingmei turned around and looked, sure enough, Ji Zimo was back.
Ji Zimo saw Su Qingmei standing with his sister, the two of them seemed to be saying something, and he asked casually, "What are you talking about?" He was afraid that Shanshan would talk nonsense in front of Qingmei and scare her was a trivial matter, if there were some things that she shouldn't know, it would be bad for her to know.
Ji Shanshan smiled and said to Ji Zimo seriously: "Don't worry, I didn't talk nonsense to my sister-in-law." β
Now, Su Qingmei has doubts that there will be two Ji Shanshan in this old mansion. Judging like two people, which one is the real her?
Ji Zimo saw that Su Qingmei didn't speak, hugged her and whispered, "I ran so fast just now, I didn't wrestle, right?" β
Su Qingmei shook his head, eager to ask him if he had heard a strange whining sound just now.
Ji Shanshan didn't seem to be able to wait for her to finish speaking, so she couldn't stop urging: "Wen Liang has laid out all the meals, and said that he will take you to pick up the wind and wash the dust." β
"Okay, let's eat." Ji Zimo liked Ji Shanshan very much when she appeared in front of Su Qingmei with such a posture. This is his good sister, the mood is better than anything, during the banquet, Ji Shanshan poured Ji Zimo full of wine, said some sorry words, and explained that she was in a bad mood before, irritable, and tyrannical tendencies, and she has been taking medicine according to the doctor's instructions, but it has not improved.
Ji Zimo asked Ji Shanshan if the doctor saw it.
Ji Shanshan said that her fiancΓ© Xu Wenliang found it, and every time he took the medicine, he personally took it back and watched her take it in person.
"Oh." Ji Zimo casually glanced at Xu Wenliang, Si Wenwen, who was interested in photography and hung a camera all day long.
Xu Wenliang noticed that Ji Zimo was looking at him and looking at his camera, so he explained: "I want to shoot some unnatural phenomena, I don't know if you are interested?" β
Unnatural phenomenon, Ji Zimo and Su Qingmei both understand, isn't it just ghosts and the like?
Ji Zimo said he was not interested. Seeing that Ji Shanshan kept serving Su Qingmei, he quipped: "Shanshan, don't destroy your sister-in-law's devilish figure." β
Ji Shanshan responded with a smile: "Brother, I think although my sister-in-law is beautiful, she is not plump. So you have to eat harder, and a plump woman will give you a lot of children. will have milk to eat. β
Ji Shanshan's words made Su Qingmei's face crimson, and she was so ashamed that she didn't want to.
After a meal, the distance between Ji Shanshan, Ji Zimo and Su Qingmei suddenly shortened a lot.
Ji Zimo took Su Qingmei to the room of the two of them.
Ji Shanshan is really careful, she knows what they need and what they don't need, everything is arranged properly.
The two were talking, and the topic revolved around Ji Zimo's parents going to play.
Su Qingmei asked in disbelief, "Did you really go to play?" The implication is that he seems to be very concerned about whether their departure will have anything to do with him.
Ji Zimo was also stunned by her unexpected rhetorical question, and he had always been a nail in the nail on the head when he spoke, and he also muttered for a long time: "Don't get me wrong, they are not hiding from you, it seems that they are really going to play." In fact, he didn't have the bottom in his own heart, once upon a time, his parents disappeared from his sight, as if after he went to settle in City A, that is, he woke up after a long sleep, and he didn't see his parents.
asked no one to know, Ji Shanshan was even more anxious to go to the house, and looked for it in despair.
There was a figure at the door, and before Ji Zimo had time to look, he flashed in and Ji Shanshan. Her indifferent expression was a bit like her brother.
"Brother, you really don't know about your parents? Or pretend to be innocent and try to trick someone's trust. β
Seeing Ji Shanshan's gloomy face, she spoke to Ji Zimo like this. Su Qingmei hurriedly said softly: "Shanshan, your brother is so tired from driving, he wants to rest, what do you have to say tomorrow?" β
"Oh, I forgot that you are still here, but you don't seem to be our Ji family, what qualifications does an outsider have to interject here?" Ji Shanshan's sharp questioning surprised Su Qingmei and made Ji Zimo angry.
Ji Shanshan, who was fine when she was eating just now, will be like a crazy woman who has come to find fault and stir up trouble.
Seeing Su Qingmei's injured expression, Ji Zimo moved his mouth and wanted to speak.
Ji Shanshan laughed and said: "Brother, our brother and sister haven't been together for a long time, I want to whisper to you, but I don't like outsiders here, you see?" β
Ji Zimo clenched his fists, eager to slap this girl's eloquent mouth. He roared almost in anger: "She's not an outsider, it's your sister-in-law." β
Ji Shanshan didn't stop because of Ji Zimo's roar and continued to force Su Qingmei to say, "Really? Since it is my own family, I should go to worship our ancestors! β
"She can't worship, and I don't worship either, why don't you blame me?"
"You're different, you're my brother after all, the roots of our Ji family, it's up to you to carry it forward in the future, right?" Ji Shanshan's words were sour.
"You ......"
Ji Zimo opened his mouth to say something, but as if he was afraid that Su Qingmei was here, he was in a hurry and slapped Ji Shanshan.
Seeing that because he didn't worship the ancestors of the Ji family, the brother and sister were tense and wanted to fight, and Su Qing's eyebrows were about to turn red.
Ji Shanshan tilted half of her face, walked up to Ji Zimo, and yelled at her: "Fight, if you don't fight, you will crawl on the ground." β
Ji Zimo couldn't bear it, and his chest rose and fell violently, at a very early stage. I heard someone tell him that he would not come back after leaving the old house. It's not because of Ji Shanshan this time, how can she clear her eyebrows like this?
"Ji Shanshan, what do you mean, you frequently called me back, and called me to make up for your birthday, and the gift is still in the car, you are like a madman now, crazy and afraid of people."
Ji Shanshan also shouted in a high-decibel voice: "Ji Zimo, tell you, this girl has never called you." β
"Not once?"
"Nope." Ji Shanshan's chest rose and fell, and she looked extremely angry.
During the quarrel between the two of them, Su Qingmei quietly left the bedroom, and in order to ask for a clean ear, she silently walked towards another aisle.
Ji Shanshan's capriciousness, Ji Zimo's concealment, and the unpredictability of the Ji family's old mansion, what secrets can't be made public?
