Chapter 14: The Man Who Was Captured by the Devil
Snow fell all day and night.
The backyard of the Xu family has been covered in a blanket of white snow, about two inches thick.
Xu San held a large bamboo broom and struggled to pull the snow.
The work of clearing the snow is really tiring, the key is that the guy style is not good, the broom can't be cleaned, and there is a sabotage.
Tian Xue sat on the pony, snorting melon seeds, while happily watching Xu San sweep the snow, and from time to time threw the melon seed skin on the ground.
"Don't look at it, why don't you come over to help!"
"I'm a wounded!"
"Even if you are a wounded and don't work, then don't destroy it, won't you throw a bunch of melon seed skins?"
"I'm paying for it, I'm willing, or you'll pay it back?"
Tian Xue stretched out her little hand, a debt collector's face.
"Don't pay it back! That's what you gave me! ”
"Hmph, liar!"
It is rare to see Xu San's deflated appearance, Tian Xue is very happy, she has not been born in Xu San's house since she was in trouble.
It's not a reminder of the gall, or the liver hurts from being angry.
But fortunately, although Xu San didn't hold the door with a yin damage on his mouth, his hands and feet were still honest, even if he changed the dressing on his feet, he deliberately avoided it.
Sweating, Xu San finally finished sweeping the snow and built a snowman by the way.
However, when building the snowman, Tian Xue still helped a lot, although she limped with a stick, she looked much more agile than at the beginning.
The wall rattled, and Xu San whispered to Tian Xue, who was still playing with the snowman: "Hide quickly, don't let my daughter-in-law see it." ”
Tian Xue glared at him fiercely, and didn't speak, knowing that she was now a person who couldn't see the light, so she limped into the house by holding on to the wall.
Xiao Meizi's thin figure appeared on the wall, waving her little hand vigorously: "Uncle Xu San, what are you doing?" I just heard what seemed to be someone else's voice. ”
"You heard it wrong, it was a dog barking."
"Wow, what a big snowman, can I go down and play?" Seeing the big snowman in the yard, the little girl suddenly became playful.
"Have you asked your mother?"
"I didn't ask, my mother has something to do with you!"
"Your mother?"
Xu San was puzzled, Ma Cui next door was a widow, and she usually paid attention to her reputation, and she usually wouldn't look for her puppet army for no reason.
"Yes, my mother and another aunt."
There is another one, Xu San can't help but think crookedly.
"What's the matter?"
"I don't know."
"Okay, you wait, I'll go over."
Saying that, Xu San also brought a new ladder, put it on the wall, and faced the little girl.
The little girl pointed to a room in her backyard: "My mother is in the house." ”
"Okay, then I'll go down here."
"Hmm,"
Xu San followed the wall, climbed over the courtyard wall, and then followed the little girl's ladder to the Ma family's courtyard.
"Let's go, this way."
Without waiting for Xu San to take a closer look at the small courtyard, the little girl took Xu San's hand and walked into the house.
The layout of Ma Cuilan's house is not the same as Xu San's house, one room, very large.
As soon as you enter the door, it is a hallway, a table of eight immortals and a few chairs, it is very simple, it seems that it is the place where the mother and the two eat every day.
On the left-hand side should be the master bedroom, and there is a faint cry coming from inside, but it doesn't seem to be Ma Cuilan.
On the right-hand side are two rooms, one is the kitchen, and the other is not visible.
"Who else is inside?"
"It's Aunt Chu Lian, it's my mother's fellow countryman."
Without thinking much about it, Xu San pushed the door directly and went in, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Ma Cuilan and a woman in a gray coarse cloth jacket sitting by the stove talking.
The woman in the flower jacket had some flowers on her face, and she looked like she had just cried.
"Xu.... Brother, how did you get here? Ma Cuilan got up and greeted, "Come, let's make the kang first, it's warm on the kang." ”
The woman in the flower jacket should be the Chu Lian that the little girl said, and she seems to be very familiar with Ma Cuilan.
Xu San didn't take off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the edge of the kang, took out a cigarette and lit it by himself, and then said in a raised and unserious tone: "Didn't you ask Xiaomeizi to call me, sister-in-law?" ”
The reason why Xu San was abnormal was because she didn't know this Chu Lian and didn't know what she was doing, so he had to show what a normal puppet army should be.
Ma Cuilan was stunned at first when she saw Xu San behaving like this, but then she understood the general idea: "Just now, our sister and the two said that they wanted to ask the third master for a favor, but they didn't say that they would go to you, but I didn't expect Xiaomeizi to make her own opinion." As he spoke, he glared at the little girl fiercely, and said sharply: "Go!" Play in the yard, adults talk, don't eavesdrop on the wall! ”
was reprimanded by her mother, the little girl was very aggrieved, and left the house with tears in her eyes.
Taking a deep puff of the cigarette and talking about the ashes on the ground, Xu San said weakly: "Say, what's the matter." ”
After that, he began to look at Chu Lian unscrupulously.
"Three.... The third master.... I.... I...."
Chu Lian is not as good as Ma Cuilan, and when she saw Xu San who was so behaving, she couldn't say anything about it.
Ma Cuilan sighed lightly and grabbed her hand, "Let's let my sister talk about it." ”
"That's right, the sister of the Zhou family came to me this time for the sake of his man."
"Oh, it's his man who can't do it, and he wants me to help?" Xu San replied with a smile.
Xu San's words were full of flirtatious flavor, and this time the woman surnamed Zhou was even more frightened, and she almost rushed out of the door, but in the end she was pulled back by Ma Cuilan, "Sister, it's okay." ”
Ma Cuilan turned her head and glared at Xu San fiercely, meaning that if you pretend to be enough, don't really scare people out.
Xu San made a helpless expression and motioned to continue.
"The sister of the Zhou family came to me this time to ask me to find an acquaintance and see if I could find out the news of his man."
Xu San raised his eyebrows, it is not easy to find missing people these days.
"Be specific."
"The man in his family was taken away by the devil two nights ago, and he never came back, and there was no news. The sister of the Zhou family just married in Ping'an County, and she was not familiar with the place, so she found me to help. ”
"Oh, I can't see it, I'm still a newlywed daughter-in-law, how old is I?" Xu San couldn't help but tease again.
This time, Chu Lian was not afraid just now, but knelt in front of Xu San with a resolute face.
"18, third master, I'm 18, please, you must help me, I already have his child in my belly. This if, if...."
Before she finished speaking, Chu Lian cried excitedly.
She is no longer afraid of Xu San, or that he can't take care of so much now, he just wants to find his husband.
Damn, damn it, it's all made by devils!
Xu San scolded secretly, and hurriedly jumped off the kang and reached out to help, "Sister, don't be like this, it's not good if you move the fetus, I'll try to find out for you." ”
"Thank you so much, Third Master." Zhou Lian said that she was about to kowtow again.
Xu San hurriedly pulled her up with both arms, "Don't worry about it first, otherwise you will have a tire." ”
"Hmm." Chu Lian agreed and returned to the original stool, and then looked at Xu San expectantly.
