Chapter 396: Painting (Two Chapters in One)

What happened in Jiang's village did not hide from Jiang Xiao, although Grandpa Jiang and Jiang Mingcheng said that Jiang Xiao was still young and didn't want these things to delay her, but because of Jiang Xiao's heart-to-heart stone, Jiang Xiao was not a child anymore, and Grandpa Jiang Tian still told her about it.

Knowing what happened, Jiang Xiao couldn't speak for a long time, she didn't expect things to develop into what they are now, let alone Aunt Jiang Qi and their family would become like this.

When Jiang Xiao returned to Jiangjia Village after school on Friday again, Jiangjia Village seemed to have returned to its former peace, and everyone lived as usual, as if nothing had changed.

But the rice in the field has bent its neck, and for so many days, no one has gone to harvest.

Jiang Xiao walked all the way and found that the people in the village only worked hard in the shops on the pedestrian street, and they selectively forgot about the rice in the field, and the villagers did not want to destroy or harvest.

Jiang Xiao's rice has all been harvested, and it has been dried for so many days, but these sun-dried grains are packed in sacks, locked in the warehouse, and not used to be beaten into rice.

Grandpa Jiang and the others were also frightened by Aunt Jiang Qi's family, especially when they saw Grandma Jiang and Zhou Xuelan, the eyes of the two big men were full of tears, and they didn't dare to tell them these things at all, so they could only endure it in their hearts.

Jiang Mingcheng has taken Zhou Xuelan back to the hospital to continue his recovery, and they plan to rent a house in the county to live.

Jiang Xiao understood that Jiang Mingcheng was evading, he didn't know how to face his wife and mother, looking at the bags of rice in the warehouse, looking at the rice drying in the yard, he had countless feelings in his heart, and finally took Zhou Xuelan back to the hospital as if he had escaped.

After Grandpa Jiang told him that day, he thought about it a lot, but when Grandpa Jiang Tian held a meeting to explain, he was still frightened.

Now the whole person is depressed, but fortunately, with Jiang Mei and Jiang Chuan's two little grandsons and granddaughters to accompany him and tease him, it can be regarded as gradually getting better.

"Grandpa, are these paddies just like that?"

Jiang Xiao walked out of the warehouse inside the house, which was already full of sun-dried rice, and the whole warehouse was filled with sunshine and the fragrance of rice.

Jiang Xiao had already found traces of rats, and these paddies must not be left like this anymore.

Listening to Jiang Xiao's words, Grandpa Jiang was stunned, his eyes didn't know where to look, and he sighed and said.

"Just leave it like that, what else can you do besides putting it away?"

Jiang Xiao frowned, looked around, and crossed the fence to see a golden rice field outside, the ears of rice had been bent extremely low, but there was still no one to harvest.

"Everyone selectively forgets about the things in the field, as if they didn't exist, when those months of labor didn't exist."

Seeing Jiang Xiao's doubts, Grandpa Jiang sighed and said.

There will be retribution for ruining them, and there will be retribution for receiving, so let them continue to grow in the ground.

That's what everyone in the village thinks.

"It won't go on like this." Jiang Xiao's brows frowned, she understood the psychology of the villagers in Jiangjia Village who wanted to be ostriches, but it was not a problem if they didn't solve it.

"I'll go talk to grandpa." Jiang Xiao put down his things and walked out quickly, walking towards Grandpa Jiang Tian's house.

"Eh, little." Behind him, Grandpa Jiang looked at Jiang Xiaoyuan's back and sighed.

"Grandpa, the rice in the village has to be harvested, otherwise it will be wasted."

Jiang Xiao came to Grandpa Jiang Tian's house and said to him anxiously.

Leaving the rice in the field and not harvesting is not a waste of food, and such a waste of food, not to mention the curse of the fairy, even they themselves will be punished.

A week passed, and Grandpa Jiang Tian seemed to be many years old, and he let out a long sigh, full of exhaustion.

"The people in the village can't make sense, they are afraid of fairies, and now they are living by covering their ears and stealing bells, pretending that all this does not exist."

Originally, they all thought that if they told the villagers all these things, they would unite and get along with each other to resist the fairy, but they never thought that it would become like this.

As soon as he thought of this, Grandpa Jiang Tian was heartbroken, if he knew this, it was better to continue to keep the people in the village in the dark and not tell them anything.

The cows are unwilling to drink water, they can't press and turn their heads, and the villagers are unwilling to harvest, so do they have to put knives on their necks and let them cut them?

Jiang Xiao's hand clenched his fist and hammered lightly, people's hearts were uncontrollable, no one thought that the people in the village would be like this after knowing the truth.

"To unlock the bell, you have to tie the bell, and we will wait until we find the fairy, or someone as powerful as her, to untie these curses."

Jiang Xiaosi thought about it, and finally said in a hoarse voice.

The villagers are reluctant to harvest the rice, so let her get it, invite some people, some tools don't cost much, and she makes money from her own videos, so there will be no curses.

"As for the rice in the field, I will pay someone to harvest it first, and I can't let so much grain rot in the field."

"This ......"

Grandpa Jiang Tian looked at Jiang Xiao with some surprise, he didn't expect her to make such a decision.

"Xiaoxiao, I'm so sorry for you..."Grandpa Jiang Tian looked at Jiang Xiao and said dryly.

Jiang Xiao hooked his lips, "It's okay, it's just a few small things, now we have to hurry up and think about how to solve the fairy's matter." ”

"Yes, yes, this matter needs to be resolved as soon as possible." Grandpa Jiang Tian nodded again and again, he didn't continue to be polite to Jiang Xiao, the grain in the field was to be harvested as soon as possible.

If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have the money and the power, he also felt like he had to solve all these problems.

"As for the matter of the fairy, Xiaoxiao, why don't you ask Xiao Xie to come over and talk about it?"

Grandpa Jiang Tian paid attention to Jiang Xiao's expression, afraid that she was still unhappy about what happened before.

To be honest, Grandpa Jiang Tian was also quite afraid of this young man who began to calculate as soon as he appeared, no matter how handsome he looked.

But it's about the fairy, this is no longer their family's business, discuss it with Xie Yi'an, and come up with a solution as soon as possible, and a few days ago, Xie Yi'an was guarding the vegetable field alone to record a video of the plants growing violently, and he didn't sleep all night, and Grandpa Jiang Tian's senses for him were better.

After all, it's just a child who is trying to save his family and his father.

Jiang Xiao's brows tightened, almost twisted into twist, and finally nodded.

In the past week, she has not communicated with Xie Yi'an, she went by herself, and she went back by herself, and she never saw Xie Yi'an at all.

Five days also made Jiang Xiao gradually calm down, not as angry as before, but he would not forgive him so easily.

After Grandpa Jiang Tian called Xie Yi'an over the phone, Jiang Xiao was cold the whole time and didn't look at him.

Xie Yi'an touched his nose and didn't make a sound, but he also silently poured water and handed something to Jiang Xiao from time to time, as if he was currying favor with her.

Jiang Xiaoleng snorted at this and did not react.

"Since Jiangjia Village has appeared in this great country, and my Xie family has also appeared, then there must be other people who have also been cursed by the fairy, we have no choice, maybe they have."

Xie Yi'an said this suggestion, which made Grandpa Jiang Tian can't help but nod.

Since the fairy doesn't belong to this world, she came from somewhere else, so they can't find her origin, so why don't they go to the other victims and discuss it together?

"We can also find help from other people, by the way, I heard that there are many temples in the city next door, maybe there are people who can help us!" Grandpa Jiang Tian touched his beard and thought about countermeasures.

However, this suggestion was rejected by Jiang Xiao, "Grandpa, most of these places are liars, so it's better not to believe it." ”

Those who have the ability are all hidden, and then concentrate on cultivation, only those who have no ability at all will go around to cheat money.

"This, okay......" Grandpa Jiang Tian thought for a moment and nodded reluctantly.

"As for finding other people, grandpa, people who have been cursed by fairies, will there be any characteristics?" Jiang Xiao asked Grandpa Jiang Tian.

For Xie Yi'an on the side, he ignored it.

"This ......" Grandpa Jiang Tian scratched his head and thought hard, the stories of fairies have been passed down from generation to generation, and it has been more than a hundred years now, how can he know what characteristics he can have.

Grandpa Jiang Tian turned his head to look at Xie Yi'an, Xie Yi'an also had a calm face, their ancestors met fairies, they could only say that they met in Pingshui, far less than they got along with Jiangjia Village, Jiangjia Village didn't leave anything, how could he have it in his family.

Xie Yi'an smiled wryly, "Among the things handed down by my family, there is a painting and a copper coin, and there is nothing else." ”

"The copper coin has been brought to me by me, and as for the portrait of the old ancestor, I will find a way to bring it out."

"Eh!" Grandpa Jiang Tian snapped and slapped his thigh, but he didn't care about the pain, and said immediately.

"We also have a portrait of a fairy!"

Speaking of this, Grandpa Jiang Tian wanted to knock on his head, seeing that he was so confused that he even forgot such an important thing.

As he spoke, Grandpa Jiang Tian hurriedly got up and began to find out the portrait as he rummaged through the cabinets.

At this time, Xie Yi'an lifted the teapot and gave Jiang Xiao a cup of tea.

Looking at the emerald green tea on the table, Jiang Xiao's brows moved slightly, she thought of the super bitter and unpleasant tea she drank last week, and suddenly a bitter taste began to appear in her mouth.

As if sensing Jiang Xiao's thoughts, Xie Yi'an poured himself a glass with elegant movements, and said slowly.

"I often come to the old village chief these days, and I have brought my own tea set and tea leaves that I am used to drinking."

Jiang Xiao's eyes fell on the tea table, and sure enough, there were two teapots on it, one that looked like it had been used for many years, and the other was a simple and atmospheric small teapot.

Jiang Xiao's nose moved slightly, and sure enough, he smelled the sweet taste from the teacup in front of his desk, he hadn't drunk water yet, and he was in class and taking the bus, Jiang Xiao was already very thirsty.

She stretched out her hand and picked up the teacup on the table, and drank the tea in it, which was sweet and delicious, fragrant but not greasy, and it was really a good tea, a good chrysanthemum tea.

The corners of Jiang Xiao's mouth hooked, and his eyes still didn't look at Xie Yi'an, "Don't think that a cup of tea can be written off." ”

Xie Yi'an showed a relaxed smile on his face, lifted the teapot in front of him, and continued to pour Jiang Xiao a cup.

"Of course not, I am willing to be a cow and a horse to compensate you."

"Huh." Jiang Xiao moved the corners of his mouth.

At this time, Grandpa Jiang Tian took out a portrait that was very well wrapped and aged, and had a history of more than 100 years at a glance.

The portrait unfolded slowly, and in the yellowed paper, the woman was dressed in red, with red lips and teeth, and her facial features were so delicate and perfect that they could not be described, but it was an extremely cold expression, and her eyes were not very clear, with a sense of pity and contempt for all beings.

The layers of clothes on his body are like a burning flame, and he is covered with a red robe, and he wears a hair crown inlaid with various jewels on his head, which looks extraordinary.

Everyone can be shocked by this painting at a glance.

There are such good-looking and temperamental people in this world.

The painter's work is truly amazing.

"Listening to my grandfather's words, this painting can't paint one-ten-thousandth of the spirit of a fairy." Grandpa Jiang Tian's eyes were glued to the painting and he said slowly.

Jiang Xiao frowned and looked at the beautiful woman in the painting, she felt a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.

After all, such a woman with a delicate temperament and exquisite appearance will always have a profound impact, but Jiang Xiao just can't remember where she has seen it.

Xie Yi'an looked at the painting and nodded, "The painting handed down from my family is five points similar to the woman in this painting, they should be the same person." ”

After all, Xie Yi'an's painting was only orally painted by his Xie family's ancestors many years later, and the painting in Jiangjiacun was painted by a painter who had seen the fairy.

Saying that, Xie Yi'an immediately called his younger brother at home, and before the two brothers could say a few words, Xie Yi'an asked Xie Shaoyan to immediately take pictures of the family's paintings.

After a while, a few photos came to Xie Yi'an's mobile phone, and when he zoomed in, he was indeed a little similar.

However, it is still Grandpa Jiang Tian's painting that contains more charm, and it also exudes a lot of incense.

Jiang Xiao suddenly remembered that he had bumped into the picture of Grandpa Jiang Tian worshipping before, and at that time, Grandpa Jiang Tian was worshipping, was it this painting.

"Alas, every time there is a disaster in the village, I can't solve it, I can only ask the fairy to raise his noble hand, it seems that I think too much." Grandpa Jiang Tian looked at the woman in the portrait and chuckled, as if he was laughing at his own inadequacy.

Jiang Xiao looked at the painting and changed the topic.

"You see, the fairy in this painting is dressed in red, and she is wearing a gorgeous-looking headdress on her head, does she look like a bride?"

The headdress is cumbersome and complicated, and it is a pearl and a gemstone tassel, which looks very gorgeous.

"It's hard to say." Xie Yi'an looked at the painting and frowned, "We don't know the customs of her world, not every bride wears red." ”

"But such a conspicuous outfit must have made a deep impression on those people more than a hundred years ago, and we may be able to find an alliance from this."
