Chapter Fifty-Six: Coming from the Road (text)
After hearing this, Meng Changqing only nodded and said that he knew and went back, although he came back not long ago, but Grandpa Ye's love for Ye Weiting, he saw it in his eyes, if he said Ye Weiting's matter at this time, it is estimated that there will be a big gap with Grandpa Ye. has been with Meng Changqing for so long, and I haven't learned anything else, but I still know how to observe words and looks.
Meng Changqing's strong ability is obvious to everyone in the village, he asked me to slow down for a while and asked Xiaoxiao to send me back, it is estimated that he is afraid that he will go back, Ye Weiting will be wary. In addition, when he left, he also gave me the paulownia bracelet and the backpack to Xiaoxiao, so that she could help bring it back.
Others can't see anything, but I see something unpleasant, he is asking Xiaoxiao to protect me. In the past, whenever I went out, he asked me to take care of Xiaoxiao, but now he has changed objects.
Xiaoxiao and I walked side by side on the road for a while, Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped me, I thought something was wrong, so I asked her what was wrong.
She stopped and hesitated in her pocket for a long time, and finally took out a triangle formed by a folded talisman and handed it to me, and said intermittently: "This is the talisman that Master taught me to draw, don't take it apart and look at it." ”
I took this amulet and looked at Xiaoxiao and blinked a few times, what did she mean by suddenly giving me a talisman? I've been drawing this talisman for a long time, and it's not worth a lot of money on the street.
Could it be that she wants to sue me for being light and affectionate?
I didn't wait for me to think about it for a while, Xiaoxiao took the lead in front of her, I was afraid that she would wrestle at night, so she followed closely, and after following up, she suddenly remembered something, turned her head and said to me: "Master likes your bracelet, I have seen him in a daze several times." When you're done using it, return the bracelet to Master. ”
I could see it too, and after coming back for a while, I saw him put his hand on this bracelet several times. When I took this bracelet just now, I thought that Ming'er would find a time to return it to him.
When we got to the side of the house, Xiaoxiao asked me to follow her, and the sweet smile on her face was gone.
I found a problem, that is, she was extremely decisive and serious in dealing with problems, and even spoke like a machine, without the slightest emotion, and generally stated her views very straightforwardly, just like directly debunking He Dawei today.
I thought to myself, this is mostly due to Meng Changqing's character that does not allow her to do wrong things, and she is not as indecisive as ordinary people in dealing with problems.
We arrived at the door one after the other, and when we arrived, we didn't see Ye Weiting in the house, but saw a fat man in white.
Xiaoxiao and I stood in front of the door for less than a second, and then saw Ye Weiting walking out with a thermos cup, and shouted uncle in front of the fat man.
"Sister, is this your uncle?" I went into the house and asked.
Ye Weiting then introduced Xiaoxiao and me to each other.
This fat man in white is called Zhao Sansan, he is the younger brother of Ye Weiting's mother, and Ye Weiting's mother is called Zhao Ersan, they believe that cheap names are easy to support, so they gave a name casually, originally planned to be called Zhao Yi, Zhao 2, Zhao San, but this is too casual, so Ye Weiting's grandfather was added to the ranking at home, so there are names like Zhao 13, Zhao 23, and Zhao 33.
Xiaoxiao and I went in and called uncle, this Zhao Sansan looked at me and Xiaoxiao and squeezed the fat on their faces and smiled: "The Ye family has produced a few good talents." ”
Xiaoxiao then sued him, saying that she didn't believe Ye anymore and that her surname was now Mu. Zhao Sansan listened to it for a moment, shook his head and said: "This Mu Wantong is just foolish, her sons are dead, and there is no heir." ”
"Xiaoxiao changed her name to change her life." I helped explain.
This Zhao Sansan was called by Grandpa Ye, because Ye Weiting was wronged here, and now He Fei ran away again, they naturally wanted someone to come over there to ask for an explanation, Ye Weiting's parents were unwilling to take care of Ye Weiting's affairs anymore, but they really couldn't rest assured that their daughter was there, so they brought Ye Weiting's uncle who worked in the city over.
We were originally here to inquire about Ye Weiting, but now that her uncle is here, we naturally can't say anything, don't let them think that our Ye family is bullying Ye Weiting.
The four of us chatted here for a while, Meng Changqing and Grandpa Ye also came back later, Zhao Sansan and Grandpa Ye didn't have anything special to say, this Zhao Sansan saw Meng Changqing's special enthusiasm, he had already heard of Meng Changqing, but he had never had the opportunity to meet, and said that he would have a few drinks with Meng Changqing in the evening, and by the way, he would learn Taoism.
I was puzzled when I heard it, and I thought that such a fat man with a fat head and big ears can do Taoism? When you catch a ghost, you probably can't move, and you can't be killed by a ghost immediately.
Grandpa Ye said with a gloomy face when he heard this: "Zhao Laosan, hurry up and pull it down, who doesn't know your deceptive methods, Master Meng, this is a real skill, just like you, you still learn from others, first reduce your two-finger-thick fat." ”
Grandpa Ye spoke really viciously, and he didn't restrain his language at all because Zhao Sansan was Ye Weiting's uncle, Zhao Sansan was a man with a wide heart and a fat body, and after hearing this, he smiled and said to Meng Changqing: "Uncle Ye still resents me for showing him the matter of the pit that time." ”
After that, this Zhao fat man talked to Meng Changqing about how he showed Grandpa Ye the feng shui of the toilet.
At that time, he chose an address to build a thatched toilet for Grandpa Ye's house, saying that it was built in that place and would definitely prosper the family, but on the first day after it was built, Grandpa Ye fell from the thatched pit, fortunately there was no fecal water in it at that time, otherwise Grandpa Ye would not let him enter the house when he saw him now.
We originally came to test Ye Weiting, but this fat man didn't feel sleepy at all, as if he deliberately prevented us from talking to Ye Weiting.
Speaking of about twelve o'clock, Ye Weiting went to sleep, this Zhao fat man said that everyone went to sleep, he may be unintentional, but in my opinion, it is indeed a little suspicious, from the moment we came in, he stopped us from talking to Ye Weiting.
When I got up to sleep, I stared at the talisman I had just hung up and asked, "What kind of talisman are you, show me?" ”
I thought about it, and handed it to him, during which Xiaoxiao kept glancing at me, I didn't notice it at the time, and after handing it to him, Xiaoxiao got up with a red face and said, "Master, uncle, Grandpa Ye, I went to sleep." ”
She said hello to everyone, but she didn't greet me, I looked at her back, and thought to myself, what is this girl angry with me?
Zhao Fat Man looked at the amulet and gave it back to me, didn't say anything, got up and asked Grandpa Ye to lead him to sleep, and when he left, Hang Erlang sang: "Feet on feet, feet on the ground, blackboards on both sides, two slopes on both sides, two rivers on both feet, shoot and ah, read I am not allowed to scold, see you and scold, see the sky you and be angry, see you and evil, see me and rejoice in the afternoon." ”
"What shit are you howling?" Grandpa Ye scolded Zhao Fat.
His voice sounded full of oil and water, a little tired, I sighed after listening to it, and then asked Meng Changqing when we went to bed.
After Meng Changqing listened to Zhao Fatzi's singing, he asked me to hand him the talisman and read it, and immediately coughed a few times after reading it, and hurriedly put away the talisman.
I asked him what was wrong, but he looked at me and said, "Ye Hai, do you know what are the most important things for a man?" ”
I was stunned, Meng Changqing is trying to tell me a big truth? It's not his style!
"Career, love." I replied casually.
"Wrong, responsibility, dignity."
After that, Meng Changqing told me a lot of things about responsibility and the like, I listened and nodded one after another, I haven't seen it for a few years, I didn't expect Meng Changqing to have this function.
After he finished speaking, he returned the amulet to me, patted me on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "You must treat the girl well in the future, and besides, don't mess with that fat man." ”
I was confused and asked him what he meant, Meng Changqing pursed his lips and thought for a while and said, "You are not a talisman at all, but a talisman on the road, which is used for courtship." ”
I listened to the round mouth, this gift is too heavy, no wonder Meng Changqing gave me the responsibility for so long just now.
"Is there anything wrong with that fat man?"
"Charms and charms, ordinary charms have to be used with spells, this road is extremely rare, very few people use this now, but he can sing the spell of this charm at once, I think it should not be a liar who walks the rivers and lakes, you better not mess with him, and don't move Ye Weiting for the time being."
After I answered, I entered the house with Meng Changqing.
Xiaoxiao slept with Ye Weiting, Grandpa Ye slept with Zhao Fatzi, I slept with Meng Changqing, and with Meng Changqing here, they didn't dare to do anything.
After sleeping for a long time, Ye Weiting's child suddenly cried, at first it was fine, but then the more he cried, the more fierce he became, we were all woken up, thinking that something was wrong and went over to take a look.
As soon as I entered the house, Meng Changqing retreated with a red face and dragged me out.
Ye Weiting is breastfeeding the child at this time, Meng Changqing is a monk Taoist, and he probably hasn't even touched a girl's hand in his life, and when he saw this, he blushed like a kiwi.
After that, Grandpa Ye asked Ye Weiting outside the door if the child was hungry, and Ye Weiting then came out and said that she didn't know what was going on, the child had been crying for more than half an hour, and the milk had been fed, but she couldn't stop crying.
When Ye Weiting spoke, I looked at Xiaoxiao, this girl was wearing a pajama at this time, and her face was very red, and she had a fight with Meng Changqing.
I thought it was funny when I saw the two of them, and I didn't dare to joke with Meng Changqing, for fear that he would whip me, so I went to Xiaoxiao and raised my eyebrows and said, "You have to feed it in the future, why are you shy." ”
After speaking, Xiaoxiao turned me around and walked next to Meng Changqing.
Seeing that the child was crying, Zhao Fatzi stepped forward to take the child in Ye Weiting's hand and said that he would let his uncle and grandfather hug him, hugged him and looked at it for a while and said: "The child is frightened, you have to give him a surprise, otherwise you will have to toss at night." ”
Children frightened in the countryside is very common, the dead in the countryside are buried, some are not buried in the position, some are angry before life are easy to become ghosts, although these ghosts do not have much humanity, but most of them still like babies, see the baby on the front teasing, sometimes to the state of forgetfulness, when leaving the baby's soul unconsciously hooked away, this is called frightened, frightened is to take back the baby's soul.
Grandpa Ye also felt that this was the case, and he was shocked that people in the countryside would need his loved ones to guard by the bedside, and at this time, there should be a person shouting the baby's name in the land temple next to the house, and asked if he had come back.
The startled man patted the bed and replied that he had returned, and that was the answer nine times.
It's very simple, nothing is required, they just let me wait at the land temple next to the house and help shout a few words.
I waited for about a minute or so at the Land Temple, and I guess they were all ready, before I shouted, "He Li, have you come back?" ”
After shouting, there was a sound of patting on the side of the bed in the room, and then Zhao Fat replied greasyly, "I'm back." ”
After repeating it a few times, it suddenly stopped when it was the sixth time, because at this moment he saw He Fei holding a baby soul in his hand and walking towards the side room.
The purpose of the method is to use the shouts to warn those who have taken away the soul of the baby, telling them that the soul of the baby is gone, and the person is dead. Most of them like babies, and when they hear the shouts, they will send the baby's soul back, I thought it was some lonely ghost, but I didn't expect that it was his father He Fei who hooked the baby's soul.
