Chapter 82: The Villa is Frightened
I turned off the engine of the car, just turned on the headlights, and quietly looked out the window at the weirdly luxurious villa. I couldn't stand Xiaomei's begging, so I had to promise to wait for him for a while, and if there was nothing wrong, I would go back to Lao Wang's house.
The lights in the villa came on, and after a while there was a commotion, even the occasional sound of things falling and breaking. I thought to myself, oh no, Xiaomei really quarreled with her husband. At this time, I think the wisest thing for me is to drive away from here quickly, after all, it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, not to mention that I am a stranger who met Xiaomei Pingshui, mixed in the quarrel between their husband and wife, and I don't know how much embarrassment and misunderstanding will occur!
I'm a person who doesn't like right and wrong, and I'm disgusted with the kind of programs on TV that mediate between the east and the west, and I feel upset when I look at it. It's just that I promised Xiaomei, and at this moment I slipped away immediately, she must hate me, and when I meet her in the future, how should I explain to her what happened tonight?
No matter, I have to go! Just as I had made up my mind and had just turned the key to start the car, the window glass was knocked hard a few times.
I had to roll down the window, and a gloomy man asked me in a muffled voice, "You just sent Xiaomei back?" β
I knew that something was wrong, but I couldn't deny it, so I just nodded my head. The man said with a straight face: "What is your relationship with her?" Please come down and explain the situation to my house to everyone. β
I suddenly became angry and yelled at the man, "What do you mean by that? Xiaomei is your wife, right? I met her on the highway and saw her standing helplessly on the side of the road, so I took her a ride home. In these years, I really can't do good deeds, but I have a good heart, why should I be blamed by you? β
A grumbling voice rang in my ears, it was Xiaomei's voice. She pleaded, "Brother Xiaomo, he is an ungrateful madman, you don't pay attention to him." Brother Xiaomo, for my sake, can you just come down and sit down? It won't take you a long time. β
The man was silent, and I couldn't stand Xiaomei's pleading, so I turned off the engine and got out of the car, and followed the couple into the villa.
Strange, why didn't you see another woman? Didn't Xiaomei say that her husband had a new love? I sat on the couch and looked around, bewildered, but I never saw the so-called intervener.
Mei made me a cup of tea and thanked me with tears in her eyes, while her man sat there silently smoking a cigarette. Xiaomei babbled a lot of things to me, and I realized at this time that her husband did not have an affair, but she listened to the rumors and misunderstood her husband.
I asked curiously, "So what did you guys just make a fuss about?" β
Xiaomei said embarrassedly: "It's my dead ghost man, he was very happy to see me come home suddenly." When I listened to his explanation that he didn't hook up with other women, I was also happy. It's just that when he heard that you were sending me home, he was cautious and thought that I had something to do with you, so he made a noise. β
After hearing this, I had to smile wryly and shake my head, and patiently told Xiaomei's husband about the situation on the road today. Xiaomei's husband listened to me suspiciously, and his face was slightly soothed. He suddenly got up and said to me, "Xiaomo, you sit down for a while, and I'll be back soon." If there is any misunderstanding, I will apologize to you. β
After Xiaomei's husband finished speaking, he went upstairs, leaving me to sit face-to-face with Xiaomei awkwardly. Not long after, Xiaomei's husband went downstairs again, but this time it was as if he was a different person, and said to me with a smile: "Brother Xiaomo, I'm really sorry, I misunderstood you." Here, I solemnly apologize to you and ask you to accept my forgiveness. β
I was amazed and couldn't understand why he had changed his face so quickly. Looking at my puzzled look, Xiaomei's husband said hesitantly: "I listened to your words just now, although I believed it a little, but I still couldn't solve my doubts, so I went upstairs and made a few phone calls and asked Xiaomei's colleagues who worked together, and they all replied that they had never seen you as a person." That's why I realized that you are really a kind person, and I misunderstood you, I'm sorry. β
It made me laugh and cry, but I felt relieved that I wouldn't get involved in such an awkward right and wrong. I looked at my watch and said to Xiaomei and his wife: "Then since everything is a misunderstanding, I will leave." β
Xiaomei's husband hurriedly said: "Brother Xiaomo, don't worry! You enthusiastically sent my Xiaomei home, and I was misunderstood, you leave now, I'm really sorry not to go. It's not early, how about having a late night snack with us and then leaving? That's all I can say. β
I smiled and said, "It's okay, it's good to figure out the misunderstanding, and I won't take it to heart." I don't have to have a late night snack, I'm not hungry, and there are people waiting for me to go back. β
Xiaomei's husband didn't stick to me, he pulled me enthusiastically and told Xiaomei to cook some noodles. In desperation, I had to agree to Xiaomei's husband's invitation, thinking that eating a bowl of noodles would not delay me for any time anyway.
After a while, Xiaomei carried three bowls of steaming noodles on a tray and placed them on the table. After Xiaomei put down the noodles, she sat down silently. Her husband said with a calm face: "Xiaomei, Brother Xiaomo is so kind to send you home, don't you invite him to eat a bowl of hot noodles!" β
Xiaomei showed a strange look on her face, as if she wanted to say something and stopped. Seeing that Xiaomei was silent, Xiaomei's husband said to me: "Brother Xiaomo, this woman is just not sensible, don't worry about it." Come, let's have a bite together, and then we won't delay you going home. β
Seeing Xiaomei's cold appearance, I felt quite embarrassed, but at this point, I could only sit at the table according to Xiaomei's husband's wishes, thinking about taking a bite and leaving this embarrassing place quickly.
Xiaomei hesitated for a moment and put a pair of chopsticks in front of me. Xiaomei's husband picked up the bowl and said to me warmly: "Brother Xiaomo, you're welcome, there's nothing to entertain at home, just a bowl of noodles to express our hearts." β
He sucked a few noodles, and Xiaomei also took a bite silently. Xiaomei raised her head, looked at me strangely and said, "Brother Xiaomo, what's the matter, isn't it your appetite?" Hurry up and eat! β
When I said this to him, I couldn't help but blush and feel extremely embarrassed. I hurriedly picked up the bowl and was about to pick noodles to eat, but I heard Xiaomei say, "Brother Xiaomo, if you think I'm not doing well, don't eat it!" β
Xiaomei's husband immediately changed his face and scolded Xiaomei: "What do you mean by this? People have sent you home from afar, do you treat your benefactor with such an attitude? Brother Xiaomo, don't mind, hurry up and eat! β
Now I'm even more embarrassed, I don't take a bite again, it seems that I think Xiaomei's craftsmanship is not good. I smiled at them and said, "Don't quarrel with you husband and wife, I actually love noodles." It's just that it's not early, and I have to say goodbye after eating this bowl. β
Xiaomei's husband showed a smiling face, stopped the chopsticks in his hand, and looked at me with a smile. At a glance of my eyes, I saw that Xiaomei was also paying attention to me with a complicated expression.
I awkwardly picked up a few noodles in the middle of the gaze of the two of them, and when I was about to deliver them to my mouth, I suddenly felt sick and almost threw up.
I was surprised to find that the chopsticks were no longer chopsticks, but two thin white bones, and the noodles on the chopsticks seemed to be alive, entangled and wriggling. I was horrified, and when I looked down at the bowl, there was a large swarm of earthworms wriggling in the bowl, just like the chopsticks.
I screamed in fright, and the chopsticks fell on the table, and the earthworms also fell on the table. Xiaomei's face was nervous for a while, and she opened her mouth to speak, but her husband forced her husband back with a fierce look.
Xiaomei's husband immediately put on a smiling face and said, "Brother Xiaomo, what's wrong with you?" Alas, the chopsticks are all gone, Xiaomei, you hurry up and find a new pair of chopsticks for Brother Xiaomo. β
I looked at the noodles in front of me again, and strangely enough, it was indeed a bowl of noodles, not some earthworm. Am I really dazzled?
Xiaomei hesitated and handed me another pair of chopsticks, and when I just took them, I suddenly felt a tearing pain in my forehead. It was a feeling I had never felt before, like a pair of invisible hands were peeling the skin off my forehead. What surprised me even more was that although I didn't bow my head at all in the face of Xiaomei and her, I seemed to see my own internal organs.
In the dantian, a stream of heat gushed out, and I clearly saw a golden lotus flower slowly blooming there. The little golden lotus swirled and rose inside me, and I could even feel it coming to my forehead.
I was surprised to see that the golden lotus burst out with a powerful golden light, shining through my forehead and heading straight for the bowl of noodles in front of me.
In the golden light, I saw the bowl of noodles in front of me, and I couldn't help but be frightened. I read that right, that bowl of noodles was really not noodles, but earthworms entangled. The pair of chopsticks in my hand were really two tiny white bones, and even the bowl containing the 'noodles' turned out to be a white skull with half of the skull cut off.
I was so frightened that I threw the two bones in my hand so far that I almost kicked the table over, jumped up from my chair and took a few steps back. The sight in front of me frightened me even more, the villa and the tables and chairs in front of me seemed to be all papier-mΓ’chΓ©, and I couldn't help but think of the paper library burned to him by the relatives of the deceased when someone died.
I only heard Xiaomei's husband say gloomily: "Brother Xiaomo, what's wrong with you?" β
I glanced at him in horror and almost fainted. Xiaomei's husband in front of him was not what he looked like just now, but skinny and skinny, looking like a sick ghost. His eyes were sunken, and on his bony hands were a few unknown white disgusting bugs.
