Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Old Lady with a Necklace
The red-bellied boy ran away with his buttocks, and I held the red line in my hand and smiled without saying a word.
After half an hour, the child boy has run away from my sight, and the red line is no longer stretched, and the ginseng doll has turned back into ginseng?
I was so excited that I walked forward while closing the red line.
Most of the red thread that was pulled out was withdrawn, and the thread suddenly straightened, and I secretly screamed in my heart: It's not good, the ginseng has become a doll and is about to run away?
I thought of this and quickly ran along the red line.
Turning a hill crossing, I saw the little boy at the end of the red line standing on the side peeing.
I took a deep breath, couldn't wait for him to turn into ginseng, and rushed forward and threw him underneath me.
This ginseng doll was suddenly pounced on by me, and I cried out with a frightened "wow"!
Oops, will you cry? It's a.
I was about to yell him to shut up, when I suddenly felt someone carrying the clothes on the back of my neck, which was so powerful that I was pulled up before I could turn around.
I stood up straight and looked back in horror, and there was a fat woman with a fat head and big ears standing behind me, and I was being picked up by one of her hands.
"What the are you doing? Bullying my baby? ”
The woman's eyes widened, her eyebrows raised angrily, and she didn't wait for me to speak.
Suddenly, I was slapped by her.
It's not that I'm a good man and doesn't fight with women, it's just that this fat girl doesn't look like a woman, with a waist as wide as a gas canister and arms as thick as the mouth of a bowl, this physique can fit me two.
I was slapped by her and my eyes were starry, and the ginseng doll saw that I was being reincarnated, so she quickly stood up and ran to the fat woman, calling for her mother as she ran.
Seeing this scene, I finally came to my senses, damn, I caught the wrong !!
After doing it for a long time, it's just a child under the mountain, and I treat other people's sons as ginseng dolls!
The fat girl pulled out the red thread needle tied to the child's red belly pocket, picked up the child and comforted him vigorously:
"Don't cry, don't cry, what's hurt?"
Far from stopping, the child cried more and more.
The fat girl saw that her son couldn't coax me, so she glared at me viciously and said:
"It's this person who bullied my family's fat dun, isn't it, my mother will beat him for you"
As he spoke, he walked towards me with the child in his arms.
Still going to fight?
I got up from the ground, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and apologized:
"Sister, I'm sorry, my ...... I'm sorry I misunderstood."
I was thinking about whether to run quickly, when I heard the greeting of the water lotus behind me:
"Brother Li, why are you here here?"
The water lotus came, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The fat girl frowned when she saw Shuilian and asked:
"What's the girl, do you know this?"
Shuilian walked over and looked at the child in the fat girl's arms, and then looked at the red needle and thread on the ground and seemed to understand.
Said with a smile:
"Sister Zhou, I'm sorry, my brother just came from the city, did he make a misunderstanding?"
When the fat girl heard this, she looked at me with contempt again, and whispered:
"It's really your brother, Shuilian, don't blame my sister for having a bad mouth, you are blind to such a brother in the stall."
After saying that, the fat girl glared at me again and went down the mountain.
Seeing the chubby girl walking away with the child in her arms, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This oolong is a bit big, and the loss is just a red thread needle, if it is a knife, I will really hurt other people's children.
Shuilian looked at me sweating, sneered, and said:
"Brother Li, why are you so funny, do you treat other people's fat dun as ginseng dolls?"
I was a bit stupid at this, so I nodded embarrassedly and headed up the hill.
Shuilian seemed to be interested in taking care of my face, and never mentioned this stubble along the way, just chatting with me in the east and west.
I wandered around the mountain until ten o'clock, not to mention the ginseng doll, and I didn't even see a ginseng beard.
I sat down to rest against a big tree and asked:
"Water lotus, this mountain is so deep, you are looking for it so aimlessly every day?"
Shuilian sat down next to me, wiped the sweat from her forehead and said:
"Well, I look for it every day, and I know that it's not easy to find hope, but even if I am asked to find it for another five or ten years, as long as I can find it, these efforts are not in vain, and they are worth it."
I looked at Shuilian's serious appearance when she spoke, which was very cute, and comforted her:
"Shuilian, really, even if you have this birthmark, you shouldn't be mistaken, in fact, you look good enough"
When the water lotus was praised by me, she smiled at that time, stood up and patted the dust on her body and said:
"Brother Li, you are really good at talking, I will give you stew meat to eat at noon today, let's go, let's go down the mountain"
I smiled and nodded, got up and went down the mountain with the water lotus.
Descending the mountain, we were walking home along the lake, and we were met by an old lady with a hunched back and a big red scarf wrapped around her neck.
I suddenly remembered that the night before on the highway, I saw Lao Wu talking to an old lady outside the car in a daze, I didn't see the old lady's appearance, but I can remember this red scarf clearly at first glance, it should be her.
Seeing the old lady, Shuilian greeted with a smile:
"Aunt Qiu, you're out"
The old lady with the red scarf smiled and nodded:
"Well, go to the field and see the seedlings"
After saying that, he glanced at me meaningfully.
Somehow, I was chilled by this old lady's glance.
The old lady didn't stop, and soon passed us.
I looked back at me suspiciously, and asked Shuilian:
"Shuilian, it's so hot this day, what is this old lady doing with a wool scarf?"
Water Lotus smiled:
"She is the old lady Qiu who I mentioned to you, telling me about ginseng dolls, she has been wearing a red scarf since I was a child, and it is said that no one in the village has seen her neck"
Seeing me staring at the old lady's figure in a daze, Shui Lian continued:
"About Mrs. Qiu, there are still many legends in our village, do you want to hear them?"
I turned my head and replied:
"Tell me, I like to hear this kind of rural legend the most."
Shui Lian glanced around, and found that there were no outsiders, so she approached me and whispered:
"There is a saying in our village that Mrs. Qiu's neck is more than one meter long, and she usually wraps her neck several times and then covers it with a red scarf."
When I heard this, I was stunned.
"A meter-long neck?"
Seeing my surprised look, Shuilian leaned back and said:
"Oh, you are still serious, that is, everyone sees that Mrs. Qiu never works, but the crops grow are best jealous of her nonsense."
I sneered and continued to walk with the water lotus.
"But Mrs. Qiu does have two problems, whoever in our village has a headache and brain fever, or has some evil spirits, they all go to her for medical treatment."
After Shui Lian finished speaking, she continued:
"By the way, Mrs. Qiu likes to raise geese the most, and the geese she raises are as close as her own children, if you usually see geese in the village, don't provoke them, you know?"
Shuilian's words are a bit worth me, I'm such a big person, how can I find trouble with geese?
"Hmm," I reluctantly agreed.
After arriving at the old house, Shuilian took the bowl with the steamed buns in the morning and went home.
When I entered the house, I lay on the bed tiredly, thinking that if I went back to tell Xiaoliu and Maruki that I had gone up the mountain to find a ginseng doll all morning, I would have to laugh off their big teeth.
Lying down for a while, I suddenly felt bored, I got up again and cleaned up the house, Lao Wu threw me here for refuge, and I don't know when I can take me back, although I am not a clean person, but the house can not be too dirty.
I washed a few rags, started cleaning, and in the afternoon, I wiped down the whole room and the kitchen.
When I was done, I stood at the door and stared at the Westinghouse in a daze, do you want to clean this room?
When Lao Wu was leaving, he told me that he must not enter this room, and asked him why he only prevaricated that it was a message left by his ancestors.
I thought about throwing the rag away, and if I didn't let it in, I wouldn't enter, I didn't care too much, and I wasn't interested in the gold bars in this house.
After that, I went to the lake to do my laundry.
In the evening, Shuilian came to bring me dinner again, but when I finished eating and took the rice bowl, I left, saying that I still had work at home, and told me to get up early tomorrow morning, and led me up the mountain to find ginseng dolls.
I laughed and said yes.
Anyway, being idle is idle, so it's time to wander.
After the water lotus left, it began to thunder and rain after a while, so I closed the doors and windows, lit a candle and lay on the bed playing mobile games.
The thunderstorm tonight is really big, and the crackling outside is non-stop, and Lao Wu's old house is really a cheat, and such a big crack in the wall is raining into the house.
I didn't bother to care about it, I was still engrossed in pressing the phone, playing and playing, and suddenly I remembered the voice of a little girl next to me:
"Uncle, what are you playing? Is it fun? ”
I was startled and turned my head to see a little girl in red standing by my bedside staring at me.
This little girl has big eyes and double eyelids and combs two small braids, which is very sweet and cute.
I looked at the closed door in amazement and asked:
"Little sister, when did you come in?"
The little girl blinked and said:
"It's raining outside, I'm hiding from the rain, I've been in for a long time, what are you playing, is it fun?"
I looked at the clothes that the little girl was wearing, and sure enough, there were many traces of rain wetting, and I breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"It's a cell phone, it's for calling, I'll show you"
With that, I handed the phone to the little girl.
The little girl excitedly took the phone and kept pressing it.
"Little sister, it's a big night, why are you out there alone, do your parents know?"
The little girl looked down and pressed her phone, and said:
"I know, I ran out to play, and I'll be back in a while."
"Well, it's late, let's go back after playing for a while, I'm willing to play and come to me during the day tomorrow to lend you another game"
The little girl didn't speak, and the more she lowered her head, the more she pressed it, the more energetic she became.
After about ten minutes, I saw that the wind and rain outside had lightened, so I snatched the mobile phone from the little girl's hand and said:
"Sister, the rain is light, I'll send you home, your parents will be in a hurry"
When the little girl saw that the phone was taken back by me, she nodded in disappointment and said:
"Then I'll go back, I'll play again tomorrow"
After saying that, the little girl turned her head and opened the door and walked out, it was so late, and it was raining, I was afraid that she would not be safe, so I quickly got out of bed and put on shoes to send her.
The little girl had just pushed the door out with her front foot, and I followed closely with my back foot, which lasted only five seconds. But the moment I opened the door, I was confused.
The little girl is gone!!
