Chapter 35: The Haunted House is Warm
I glanced at the clear sky and saw that he was looking at me too, and I lowered my eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info This Zhang Liansheng is really getting more and more interesting.
"Lei Sheng, look at my aunt patronizing and talking to you, I didn't ask you if you had eaten, are you hungry? Auntie, I'll do it for you. ”
"No need, Aunt Li, we just ate in the shop."
"You've already been to the shop? Then did you see Zhang Liansheng? ”
I nodded, and Aunt Li admired, "You see, they are now big bosses, and they are one of the largest households in our county." The business is doing well, but it's not the same guy he used to be. ”
"Well, I see."
After greeting Aunt Li for a while, I said that I wanted to go back to the old house to see, and Aunt Li was going to Zhang Liansheng to ask for the key, but I stopped her. Said that he went out, and it was useless to look for it. Aunt Li said that then take the ladder wall over it, I can think about it.
The ladder was put away, and I just held on to both sides of the ladder, and before my feet could go up, Aunt Li grabbed me, "Child, why don't we go, what can we do if we really encounter a ghost outside?" ”
"Auntie, just relax, how can a ghost have such a big courage to come out and harm people in broad daylight? It's going to be fine. ”
Looking at the concern and nervousness on her face, I was really worried, not to mention how warm my heart was.
"Then, then you must be careful, I will wait here, and I must shout loudly if there is something, you know?"
Seeing that I nodded, Aunt Li put her hand down.
Originally, I just wanted to go by myself, and I didn't want to clear the empty donkey, so I followed.
The yard is still the same as when I left, but no one has been here for a long time, it lacks popularity, and there is a smell of dilapidation everywhere. The fallen leaves on the ground are soft and rustling when stepped on.
When I opened the door, it was covered with dust and cobwebs.
I looked around and it seemed that I couldn't live without tidying up. He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Clean up, I want to stay here for one night." ”
"Okay."
Clearance is always a man of action, and here he readily agreed, and the other side has already begun to find buckets and rags and start working.
I first found my father's tablet and wiped it clean, placed it, put incense on it, and bowed respectfully before I started cleaning.
I haven't worked since I was a kid. So at the beginning, it was okay, relying on the strength of such a body, I swept the yard roughly; When it came time to wipe and wipe the work, I felt that I was not working, but making trouble. Not only is it illegal, but he is also tired and has back pain.
Seeing that I couldn't get used to these rough jobs, the clear space let me rest. So I was embarrassed and relieved to sit back in my chair and watch him go about his work alone.
He worked hard, never getting tired, and smiled at me from time to time. Gradually, my eyelids fell together and I dozed off. I only remember that I seemed to say to him in a daze: "Senior brother, my family is your family, do it well." He was so happy that he worked harder.
When I woke up and looked at the spotless furniture that had been polished as good as new, I had the illusion that I had returned to the days when I had my dad three years ago.
The teapot on the table was hot, and I poured a cup, and it was actually brewed in the bait, which I couldn't believe it. I tried it and the temperature was just right. The color of the soup is pure, bright and transparent. I took a sip, the quality was high, exactly the same as what I drank when I was a child, but the taste was thicker.
I don't know where this clear space came from, but I really dare to soak it for me. Fortunately, if it is other tea, if it is put for three years, I am afraid that the whole pot of water will be poured out.
I was sipping it in my cup when a burst of aroma wafted into my nostrils. When I looked up, I saw that it was the clear space that walked in with food.
"It's time to eat." Clearance said as he put the meal away.
"Where did it come from?" I asked curiously.
"I asked for the materials from Aunt Li next door, and I made them myself."
"Yo, yes, you can cook? I don't even know. ”
I took a bite and it tasted good, so I nodded, "It's delicious." ”
Jingkong laughed when he heard it, "Eat more if it's delicious." ”
After eating, I touched my little belly with satisfaction, "Ha, it really feels like home, I want to live here and not leave." ”
"Then stay a few more days."
"Okay." I rolled my eyes and said to him, "Senior brother, aren't you afraid of hauntings when you live here?" ”
"With you, what am I afraid of?"
"Heh, you just believe me like that, then let's play ghost hunting today."
I was teasing him, but I didn't expect him to really say "um" very seriously.
After tidying up the dinner table, I inspected it inside and out, patted the empty shoulder, and said, "Well, good job." ”
The clear space is now bowed, "Thank you for complimenting." ”
I jumped on him, put my arms around his neck, and giggled. The clear space was crooked, and I held him upside down. I dishonestly climbed on his back and let him carry me around the yard twice before I let him go.
The two of them laughed for a while, and it was getting dark.
lit the candles, found a few mats, and sat in front of the tablet, "Senior brother, you are tired for a day, go and rest." ”
"Why don't you rest?"
"I'm going to be here with my father."
"I'm not sleepy, I'll sit with you for a while."
As he spoke, he pulled over a cushion and sat down.
If he is willing to accompany him, let him be. I closed my eyes and stopped talking.
After being silent for a while, Jingkong suddenly asked me: "Jingxin, what do you think about Zhang Liansheng?" ”
"What do you say?"
"I don't think it's credible, it's too bizarre, isn't it? But if it is fake, where did the two jars of gold and silver come from? ”
Jingkong was silent for a while, and asked tentatively, "It can't be stealing your house, right?" ”
I slowly opened my eyes, "yes, it's really weird. First my house was haunted, and then he became rich, which is really suspicious. I suspect that he found something in my house, and then found a fake Taoist priest out of nowhere to collude with him to rationalize this ill-gotten wealth in the name of a dream, so as to hide people's eyes. ”
At that time, I felt so guilty and blamed myself for my father's death, and I didn't have the heart to think about all this money. I've been autistic on the mountain for a year, and I've been practicing for two years, and I'm even more pure-hearted, except for thinking about my father, I haven't even thought about these mundane things. This time I came back, but there were many strange things, so why didn't I be suspicious?
"Don't you know how much money you have in your family and where you put it?"
"I was too young, carefree all day, just eating, drinking, playing, and thinking about nothing. Although my father is old, his body is very strong, and he doesn't even think about what to explain to me. ”
"So what are you going to do? Do you want to expose him? ”
The question of clearance really made me hesitate. yes, what do I want? Money is something outside my body for me, as long as that Zhang Liansheng didn't do anything wrong, why should I bother with him?
Thinking of this, I shook my head, "Forget it, let him go." ”
After thinking about it, he nodded.
