Chapter 12 The school tests the courage
Thinking about the bet with Zhang Qiang, I didn't eat much for dinner, so I hurriedly took a few bites, and lay on the bed staring at the clock on the wall in a daze......
My uncle saw that I didn't eat much, and bought me a lot of snacks in the small shop in the village after eating, and I was hungry when I was a child, and when I saw that there was delicious food, where could I still take care of the haunted school in other people's mouths, so I turned over from the bed directly, grabbed two bags of snacks and tore them open to eat.
Just as I was chewing vigorously, a female voice full of energy sounded in the dining hall: "Auntie, where is my little brother Yong?" ”
As soon as I heard it, I knew who it was, and my uncle jumped up from the bed, panicked and at a loss to know where to go.
I jumped out of bed barefoot and locked the door of my room as soon as I closed it inside.
My uncle saw that I was locked and knew that people outside couldn't get in, so he sat on his bed and felt a lot more relieved.
There are two single beds in my room, and when my uncle is not there, I live alone, and as long as my uncle comes back, he will rest in the same room with me.
My brother-in-law is also in his twenties and almost thirty years old, and the countryside is no more than the city, and he started a family earlier, and those like my brother-in-law who are good-looking, have ink in his stomach, and have a decent job in the city are all the objects of competition among the girls in the village.
My brother-in-law is no exception.
Since I can remember, there are not too many people who take the initiative to come to my uncle to protect the matchmaker, and even some girls who fall in love with my uncle directly skip the hurdle of matchmaking and let their parents come to my grandma and say it.
But for so many years, no girl has entered my brother-in-law's eyes.
My grandmother saw that he was getting older day by day, and felt that this problem was getting more and more tricky, and my mother once asked my brother-in-law privately if there was a good girl in the city, and my brother-in-law said no. Therefore, the uncle, who is quite popular with women, has become a big problem in the family.
The woman who suddenly appeared in this dining hall was one of my uncle's admirers.
It's still the craziest one.
Speaking of this woman's heroic deeds, don't blame my brother-in-law for panicking when he heard her voice.
I thought it should be my brother-in-law who let her see me when I went to the shop to buy snacks, and knew that my brother-in-law was at home, so I followed Baba.
After all, the shop belongs to hers, and her parents want my brother-in-law to be their son-in-law.
This woman is also known for her toughness in our small villages. My grandmother has never been very proud of her because of this, but later I saw that the girls of the right age in the village were married one by one, and my brother-in-law was indeed not young, so she simply turned a blind eye and let them go.
As she spoke, the woman had already walked to the door of my room, raised her hand and slammed the door, "Brother Xiaoyong, I'm Fenghua, you open the door for me." ”
I shook my head at my uncle, and neither of them paid attention to her.
The woman didn't leave, and the force of the knock on the door outside was heavy, and I was afraid that she would scrap my door if she came a few more times.
So I opened my voice and shouted, "My brother-in-law is not here." ”
"Hey, Su Ze, you don't have any hair and you still want to lie to me, just now my aunt said that Brother Xiaoyong is at home, you hurry up and open the door for me, otherwise I will stay here and not leave, see when you come out, we will spend a while."
As soon as I heard this, I was a little anxious, I still have to go to the school to find Zhang Qiang at night, how can I really be blocked by her at home and not go out, then don't I admit that I can't get close to Qiqi in the future?
Thinking of this, I glanced at my shirtless body and had an idea.
shouted at the top of his voice: "Aunt Fenghua, it's not that I won't open the door for you, it's really hot in the house, my brother-in-law will wipe my body, is it inappropriate for you to come in." ”
I thought, I've talked about it for a half-year-old child, no matter how cheeky this woman is, she should know how to be sensible and leave.
I don't know, I still think of people as simple.
When this woman heard me say this, she didn't seem to have a sense of embarrassment at all, but smiled and raised her voice to make fun of me, "Su Ze, can the aunt you take advantage of?" Your brother-in-law is a man after all, and he is not meticulous enough to do these tasks, so you open the door and your aunt will wipe it for you. ”
As soon as I heard this, I was speechless.
This woman's toughness is really not comparable to ordinary people.
But after thinking about it, this is my house, and my brother-in-law doesn't have much of her, so why is she so unruly at home like a mouse hiding a cat.
So I shouted at my throat in the house and told her to drive people away for me, saying that I had to do my homework and needed to be quiet.
Grandma also knew that my brother-in-law and I were annoying her, and besides, with her temperament, my grandma couldn't look past it, so she sent people out of the door along the slope I gave. Although this woman is spicy, she also knows that she wants to have an affair with my brother-in-law, and my grandma's support is indispensable.
As soon as she left, my brother-in-law was like a fish that had been released, and he took a few exaggerated breaths with his mouth open, and he was amused by me, so he asked him why he didn't marry a daughter-in-law.
In my memory, my uncle didn't answer me positively in the end.
Instead, he asked me a question.
He asked me, "Ozawa, if you don't meet the girl you like in the future, are you willing to marry any girl?" ”
At that time, I didn't have a deep understanding of love, so I couldn't give him any answers, but I think I would probably have the same choice as my uncle.
The living habits of people in the village and the city are different, and every household goes to bed early at night and wakes up early during the day, which is completely opposite to the style of staying up late or even playing all night in the city. My grandmother and mother cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and went back to their rooms to sleep, and my brother-in-law was shouted and threatened by the woman's rough voice and warned all night, and at this time he was also tired, so he also washed his feet and went to bed early.
I was the only one in the dark room, my eyes wide open, waiting to go out.
Just after half past nine, I put on my clothes in the dark, stuffed a flashlight into my sleeve, and tiptoed out the door.
The countryside was quiet at night, and the surrounding ground was pitch black, except for a few crickets, except for the rustle of leaves in the wind, and the creaking of shoes on the ground.
I hugged my arms, turned on the flashlight and walked forward, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable.
But when I thought of Zhang Qiang's contemptuous face, I still swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and strode forward, thinking that as long as I ran to that broken school in one go, I would win.
At the same time, I have been doing psychological construction for myself all the way, telling myself that there is nothing wrong and that there is no need to be afraid at all.
But when I think so, I am still afraid.
Especially walking on such a dark and uninhabited dirt road, I couldn't help but think of Zhang Qiangxiao's trembling words over and over again in my mind-
“…… That school is haunted! ”
“…… That school is haunted! ”
“…… Haunted! ”
I got to Qiqi Village in one breath, I don't know how much time it took me to come all the way, whether Zhang Qiang had rushed to that school now, I could only continue to move forward calmly.
Although I haven't been to the abandoned school in Zhang Qiang's mouth, he has told me the specific location, so even though it is the first time to go, I can find it.
Actually, it's quite funny, to say that usually, Zhang Qiang and I don't like each other.
But in such a night, I can't wait to see Zhang Qiang at the moment, I want to have a living person next to me, even if it is the annoying Zhang Qiang, but I don't know if Zhang Qiang is also like this now.
I strode towards the school with a heart that was beating wildly, hoping to end this meaningless experience as soon as possible.
Finally, in the distance, I saw a large square courtyard.
Hurriedly raised a flashlight to shine a random light, and the wall next to the gate was painted with red paint, but it was very old, and it was no longer clear from the wind and sun. A straight pole stood in the middle of the clearing, and I shook the top of the pole with a flashlight, and a tattered red rag was swaying in the wind, making a popping sound that made people tremble to listen to.
It looks like this should be the previous flag-raising stand.
I took the flashlight and changed the direction of the irradiation, and suddenly I was shocked, the flashlight was thrown to the ground by me, and it went out after a few rounds......
