The old fish head entered the main courtyard accompanied by Zhou Jiulang. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Nie Xiaofan, Pei Shizheng and Mrs. Zhou were sitting together at the banquet to listen to the scriptures.

The scriptures are being read by Ruan, and she is reading the Heart Sutra today, and there is a voice. Mrs. Zhou listened very carefully.

Seeing that the old fish head was coming, Mrs. Zhou raised her hand and interrupted Ruan. Nguyen put down the Heart Sutra lightly. Pick up a teacup on the side to moisten your throat. But he saw Zhou Jiulang and a hunchbacked old man walking in.

This old man was dressed in arrowroot, hunchbacked, and faintly fierce. Ruan's tea couldn't be drunk, and when he looked at Pei's, he was just as puzzled as her.

Just thinking about it, the old man knelt down for Mrs. Zhou.

The old fish head looked a little excited, the corners of his mouth twitched for a long time, and he tried his best not to cry. Nie Xiaofan saw it, this old fish head also has a sensual side?

"The old slave greets the eldest lady..."

The old fishhead's voice was rarely loud, and he knelt to the end as he spoke, and kowtowed three times firmly.

The yard was paved with stone bricks, and the old fish's head was banging, and Nie Xiaofan felt pain for him when he heard it.

Old Madam Zhou naturally couldn't see this, so she was busy helping people up. Tell him to sit and speak.

Although Mrs. Zhou is in good spirits, she is old, and some things can only be remembered after thinking about it for a long time, she asked: "I remember in a trance, you are not hunched on your back, what?"

The old fish head lowered his head in shame and said, "It's true that the hunchback is not born, it's just... The old slave is not angry. I can't straighten my waist for the rest of my life..."

When Old Madam Zhou heard him say this, her originally kind face turned cold.

Do you dare to love this person or are you inferior to yourself for the sake of being a slave? Could it be that I bought you by mistake back then?

Like such a person who doesn't know the importance of his life, Mrs. Zhou doesn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore. immediately instructed Nie Xiaofan: "He is old, don't arrange errands for him in the future." Let's be an old servant. ”

Nie Xiaofan said with a smile: "Xiaofan thinks so too, the old fish head wood carving is doing a good job." In the future, it would be good to let him concentrate on wood carving..."

As soon as Mrs. Zhou heard about the wood carving, her expression eased a little. He said to the old fish head: "You were going to kowtow to me more than 20 years ago, and now you are kowtowing too." Go back in peace. Catch Ming'er to carve a puppy for me. ”

After Mrs. Zhou finished speaking, her own maid stepped forward to reward the old fish with a purse. And send him out.

"This—" The old fish head stood up, holding the purse in his hand and feeling a little helpless. But it doesn't seem to want to go.

Nie Xiaofan frowned, if this old fish head has anything to say, in fact, it is okay to tell her or Zhou Jiulang in private, why bother to touch the nail here with the old lady?

Sure enough, Mrs. Zhou didn't want to talk to the old fish head anymore, so she lowered her eyebrows and drank tea. A grandmother beside her stepped forward and said, "The old lady likes to be quiet, why don't you send the old fish head out soon?"

The old fish head still looked at Mrs. Zhou and stopped talking. It seemed very difficult, but there was still no intention of giving up.

It's embarrassing... In front of all the masters, you can't drag the old fish head out directly...

Zhou Jiulang didn't know what the old fish head meant, so he said, "I'll send the old fish head out..."

Mrs. Zhou's face was pale, and Zhou Jiulang brought the old fish head to see her, which was a sign of respect for her grandmother. If Zhou Jiulang sends the old fish head out again, what will happen?

Pei Shi smiled: "The ninth brother has just arrived, and he doesn't say that he will talk to his grandmother for a while? ”

Zhou Jiulang pouted, he didn't come back. Ruan Shi looked at Nie Xiaofan, this was Nie Xiaofan's servant after all. Could it be that he is old and stupid?

Is this still in front of the old lady?

Nie Xiaofan thought that the old fish head had never been a troublemaker, was it really unspeakable?

Nie Xiaofan pretended to be concerned and smiled: "Auntie, you see, this old fish head can see you like this once in his life, he is so excited that he can't speak..."

When they laughed like this, everyone burst into laughter. The atmosphere is less awkward.

Everyone looked at the old fish head with a smile, and the old fish head was teased by Nie Xiaofan, but he was not embarrassed. On the contrary, as if he had been given a strong medicine, he made up his mind.

After all, he probably won't have the chance to see the eldest lady again in his life...

The old fish head mustered up his courage and took a step forward and bowed to the end: "Miss, the old slave has a few words that I want to tell you..."

When Mrs. Zhou saw him today, she just thought that she had bought this person, so she saw him to relieve her boredom. Now that he does not know how to lift, he is no longer interested. So he said: "There is no need to say goodbye, let's go down first..."

The people who served around Old Madam Zhou knew that the old lady had issued several eviction orders, and if she hadn't looked at Nie Xiaofan, she would have been thrown out by the guards a long time ago.

They hurriedly came to help the old fish head out, and the old fish head was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Miss, the old slave knows the story of the fox demon... Do you want to hear it?"

Everyone was slightly stunned, the old lady is not a person who likes to listen to stories...

Isn't this old man really stupid?

Dementia, right?

What else is the fox demon talking about?

A little girl whispered beside the old fish head: "I'm old, don't find guilt for myself..."

The little girl said and went to pull the placket of the old fish's head, who would have thought that at this time, the old lady suddenly said: "Fox demon?

Everyone was stunned again, especially Pei and Ruan, who didn't understand. When did the old lady like to listen to stories?

The old fish head nodded.

Old Madam Zhou immediately sneered and said, "Then I have to listen to the story of this demon." "She focused on this demon word... After speaking, he looked at his grandchildren and daughters-in-law and said, "Grandmother, listen to the fox demon, don't scare you young people." Let's go down first. ”

Several people looked at each other, but they did not dare to disobey, so they saluted together and retired. The old fishhead sat back in his place.

Pei and Ruan lived in the wing of the main courtyard, but since the old lady told them to go down, it was inconvenient for them to stay in the main courtyard, so they went to visit the garden together.

After a few people separated, Zhou Jiulang and Nie Xiaofan looked back at the Moon Pavilion together.

"I always thought there was something strange about the old fish head. Especially what the story of the fox demon. On the way, Zhou Jiulang talked about it again. A face full of confusion.

Nie Xiaofan said: "The old fish head is really strange. But what I'm wondering about is not the fox demon, but the ghost of the Nie family's ancestral house..."

"Ghosts?" Zhou Jiulang was even more puzzled, these descendants of the Nie family lived here, and it was said that it was because they were haunted.

And... Licheng Street is deserted. Are there really ghosts?

Nie Xiaofan told Zhou Jiulang what she knew about the haunting of the ancestral house and the murder case.

Zhou Jiulang couldn't digest it. "So, the murderer hasn't been caught yet?"

Nie Xiaofan nodded.

Zhou Jiulang couldn't help but gasp.

"I don't believe in any ghosts. The killer has not yet been caught. It's so..."

It's so unsettling...

Nie Xiaofan said again: "I asked some older servants, but they haven't heard of it. There is an aunt in the capital, and it is said that the haunting began when she was a child. In this way, it was more than 20 years ago, a little later than the time when the fox demon appeared. ... But I don't know exactly when. ”
