"Yes, my ancestors worked long hours in the Chu family, I heard that the Chu family compound occupies half a town, and when the Qing Dynasty was not dead, the old man Chu was still a big official."

"And then?"

"Later, I heard that not long after Young Master Chu died, a fire broke out in the West Courtyard for some reason, and the Chu family has been defeated since then, and after the two elders of the Chu family followed a Taoist leader, they never came back."

After hearing this, I don't know why I was very melancholy in my heart, and sighed secretly.

Grandma cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table and sighed: "In life, what can he do if he is prosperous and rich?" In the end, it will be just a death, dust to dust, and dust to earth. ”

I took my mattress and went back to the cemetery to keep vigil, and slept until midnight, when I vaguely heard someone calling me.

When I opened my eyes, there was a thick fog at night, and there seemed to be a person standing, waving to me, and by the moonlight I could see clearly that it was the grandma who had dreamed the day before.

"Grandma, are you here again? I've uprooted the tree for you. ”

"Grandma came to thank you this time, Grandma can't repay it, this bead was given to you, it was given to me by the good-looking little brother in the spirit tomb, and it is useless for Grandma to keep it."

She floated over and handed me a golden bead, and when she looked at it again, Grandma was gone.

I stretched my waist until dawn, and a cat-eye-sized golden bead rolled out of my hand.

Thinking of yesterday's dream, I couldn't help but shudder, and subconsciously looked around, but there was no half a figure.

I held the bead above my head, and the morning light shined through the glass bead, exuding a dazzling light, which was very beautiful.

"It's a pretty thing." I laughed and rubbed dirt against my body and stuffed it into my pocket.

When I went back to lunch that day, I saw that my grandmother had made a lot of delicious food, so I thought about it and said, "Grandma, if you cook so much food at once, I won't be able to finish it, and it will go bad." ”

Grandma looked helpless: "It's not for you to eat, it's for Aunt Lin's little tiger in Xincun to eat." ”

"What's wrong with Little Huzi?"

"Xiaohuzi has a strange disease, and the family has no money to treat it, so he can only wait for death. It's the same age as you, pitiful. ”

Xiaohuzi and I studied together, but I didn't expect that he would be seriously ill after only one winter.

"Strange disease?" I pursed my lips and felt very uncomfortable: "It can be cured, right?" Grandmother? ”

"If you send it to the hospital, you can get better, but when you come back, it goes on again, and it can't be cured."

Grandma made the snack and handed it to me: "You can send it to Xiaohuzi quickly, and have a few words with Xiaohuzi." ”

"Hmm." I was afraid that the pancakes would be cold, so I put them tightly in my arms, and when I arrived at Xiaohuzi's house, I was shocked to find that my chest was burning a little painful.

Xiaohuzi is usually alive and kicking, but at this time he was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, his brows tightly locked.

Aunt Lin is just wiping her tears, she is only in her early forties, and her sideburns are all white.

I used all the methods, asked Yang Mingsi to do the method, and went to the hospital to see the disease, but I couldn't break the root.

Xiaohuzi woke up once in the middle of the game and talked to me for a while.

"Little daughter-in-law, I can't accompany you in the future, I may have answered that curse and am about to die."

I bit my lip desperately and wiped my tears, trembling so much that I couldn't say a word.

"You have to take good care of yourself in the future, and if you have the opportunity, you should continue to study. I've heard that the big city is beautiful, and I can't go there, but you're going to take my place and see it. ”

"You have to get better, let's study together, and go to the big city together."

Xiaohuzi was in a very bad spirit, he looked at me fixedly, and fell asleep in a daze after a while.

At that time, I had only one thought in my heart, I must let Xiaohuzi continue to live!

I walked for the night without telling my grandmother, and I rushed to the town, and it was dawn.

There was a pawnshop in the town, and I hesitated for a long time before I stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper, I want to be a thing." ”

The shopkeeper rolled his eyelids, glanced at me, and continued to dial the abacus in his hand, ignoring me.

I gritted my teeth and put the golden beads in my pocket into the small window: "This, is it worth it?" ”

"Huh?" The shopkeeper finally took a look, and at this look, his face suddenly changed, and he took the beads and looked at them again and again for a long time, and asked in surprise: "Girl, where did you come from?" ”

I made up my mind and said, "It's a treasure handed down from my ancestors, and the family is in a hurry to use the money, so I took it out." ”

"Really? It's indeed a baby, do you still have it at home? The shopkeeper asked with a greedy look on his face, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"No, no. How much can it be? ”

The shopkeeper raised a finger, and I didn't know the bottom of my heart, and asked, "How much is this?" ”

"A thousand!" As if he had given me a great favor, the shopkeeper counted the money from the drawer and said, "Look at your little girl, pitiful, add you another fifty." ”

This shopkeeper is well-known in the town for picking on the door, and if he hadn't been too upset and uneasy, he would never have added these fifty yuan.

I reached out and grabbed the beads in the palm of my hand: "I don't deserve!" ”

"Hey! What's wrong with it? I can tell you, as long as I can afford this price here, if you go anywhere else, no one will ask for it! ”

Listen to your nonsense! Seeing that I was leaving, the shopkeeper was in a hurry and hurriedly chased him out.

"Girl! Girl, come back, you say, how much do you pay?! ”

"Ten thousand!" In fact, I asked for a price randomly, thinking that he wouldn't make it too low if he didn't give it.

The shopkeeper thought about it, and responded happily: "10,000 is 10,000, deal!" Bring the beads. ”

"You give the money first!" I put the beads behind my back, and I always felt that I had lost money by selling them for 10,000 yuan.

"Hey~ I can't see that you have a lot of eyes."

When you meet a jackal who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, don't you have a lot of eyes?

I watched him count the money before giving it to the beads, and after taking the money, I hurried back to the village.

I trotted all the way back in the evening, wrapped the 10,000 yuan, put it outside Xiaohuzi's house, knocked on the door, heard someone open the door, and quickly hid in the grass on the side.

Seeing Aunt Lin take the money back, I was relieved.

On this day, I didn't see anyone, and I was inevitably scolded by my grandmother, and after scolding, I still took out the hot meal.

The next day, I heard that Aunt Lin took Xiaohu to the hospital to see a doctor, and I was happy for a long time.

In this way, Xiaohuzi's illness will definitely be cured, but ...... Seeing a doctor is so expensive now, what will happen to the money in the future?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Aunt Lin to have no money to treat it, so she took Xiaohuzi back.

I tried my best, that night with the lamp, I came to the small stone pool, and the grandmother said that the beads were given by the people in the tomb, and there must be something valuable in the tomb.

I knelt down with both knees bent and immediately kowtowed three times.

"Young Master Chu, Lingsheng didn't mean to offend you, nor did he want to take your things because he was greedy for money. It's a good friend of mine who is sick, very serious, very serious, and I want to save him.

As the saying goes, saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, I will definitely pray for Young Master Chu from time to time, and I hope you will be a good family in the next life. If you don't agree, please blow out the lamp in my hand. ”
