The old man of Ming said, that place is called porcelain alley, located in the most prosperous part of the city, out of the alley 200 steps, is the most lively Hongyun Street in the city, the street is lined with shops, not only lively during the day, that is, at night, the shop beats the foreign, there will be all kinds of small stalls, eat, play, everything.

But the scene that Minghui saw was very different.

Hongyun Street in broad daylight, there is no figure, the shops on both sides of the street, the doors are closed, for some reason, the signboards are covered with black cloth, which is even more ghostly, more like a ghost market than the ghost market in the capital.

It's no wonder that Wang An drove a mule cart and passed twice at the entrance of Hongyun Street, but he was not sure that this was the bustling downtown in the mouth of Master Mingda.

Walking along the T-shaped street in the middle of Hongyun Street, it is the porcelain alley, which is at least popular compared with Hongyun Street.

Two old ladies sat at the mouth of the alley basking in the sun, and when they saw a mule cart stopped, the two old ladies came to their senses, walked over with crutches, trembling slightly.

"What are you doing here?" The old lady in blue asked.

Wang An thought that the old ladies were idle and had nothing to watch the excitement, he touched the mustache he had just pasted today, and said with a smile: "Old man, we will live here in the future, we are neighbors." ”

Although the old lady in blue is old, she obviously has a good ear, and when she heard this, she sighed and said, "It turns out that you are newly moved, and you also sell coffins?" ”

What? Selling coffins?

Wang An was stunned and said embarrassedly: "We don't sell coffins." ”

"Don't sell coffins? That's selling paper, alas, it's not easy to do a single paper business, my nephew is a monument carved in Quyang, and he also wants to open a shop, or you can do business together. The old lady in blue looked like a warm-hearted person, and she became a middle-aged person while talking.

Wang An's head was a few times bigger, and he didn't want to explain more, so he said with a smile: "Then I'll go back and talk to the owner, you are always busy, you are always busy." ”

He thought that the two old ladies would walk away with this, but he was wrong!

As soon as Wang An put down the footstool, Xiao Lang jumped out first, he stretched out his little hand, first helped the old woman get out of the car, and then helped his sister down from the car, the two old ladies got close, not to mention how close, Xiao Lang could even smell the leeks in their mouths.

"Is this your grandmother? What's that, is it your sister or your sister? The old lady in green asked.

Xiaolang is young, and his sweet little milk voice says: "This is my milk, this is my sister." ”

As soon as Xiaolang's words fell, the old lady who looked kind and kind spoke: "Two old sisters, my surname is Hua, these are my two grandchildren, the eldest is a granddaughter, called Huahua, and the younger is a grandson, whose name is Peanut." ”

The two old ladies looked at the old lady in front of them, ouch, this old lady is blessed at first glance, she looks white, and there is a mole in the center of her eyebrows, ouch, look at this mole, just like that Guanyin, this is called Guanyin mole, good-looking, really good-looking.

Look at these two children again, they are all white and clean, that is, they are thin, none of them are fat, well, this is not good, they are not blessed at first glance.

The two old ladies were instantly in a good mood.

"Old sister, I heard that your house is a paper shop? Is the shop rented? The old lady in blue instantly came to her senses again.

Granny Hua sighed: "Old sister, you have also seen that we are old and young, and we haven't even entered the house, so how can we bother to do business." ”

Only then did the old lady in blue remember that this family lived here.

"Hey, you just bought a house? I haven't heard of any of us selling houses here. ”

Granny Hua is very patient: "It's not new, I've been buying it for many years, and I haven't come to live." ”

"Ouch, it's the innermost one, I know, I know, that one has been locked, where are you from, why don't you live in the city?" The old lady in blue began to get to the bottom of it.

Granny Hua told her that her son wanted to come to Mancheng to do business when he was young, so he bought this house, and then something happened, so he didn't come, and he followed his son around to do business all these years, and now he is old, his body is not as good as before, and his grandson and granddaughter are also older, and he thinks that there is still an empty house in the city, so he wants to come and live for a few days.

The two old ladies understood that the son of the family was a businessman, and even if he was not a businessman, he was also the kind of profiteer who changed places with a rake.

If you don't live in a fixed place, you will also have to affect the old lady.

In short, it is definitely not as good as their son.

The two old ladies were a little more enthusiastic, and Granny Hua was also a talkative, Wang An took the two children to move things inside, and the three old ladies stood at the mouth of the alley and chatted about family life.

These two old ladies, one surnamed Fang, the other surnamed Yuan, yes, they are not only neighbors, but also cousins, they have been good since they were young, and ten years ago, the two families made an appointment to buy a house in Porcelain Hutong together.

As for why it's called Porcelain Hutong, that's a long story.

In the past, there lived a merchant who sold porcelain, and the whole alley except for the innermost, that is, the house of Hua Po, the other houses were his, some lived in people, and some released goods, therefore, no one remembered the previous name of this alley, and they were all called here Porcelain Hutong, and later the Yamen simply changed the name here to Porcelain Hutong.

Ten years ago, their family moved to the capital, no one could buy all these houses at once, so they had to open them and sell them, although they sold cheaply, but they couldn't sell them all, and there is still a yard, which is next to the courtyard of the flower mother-in-law, ten years, and has not been able to sell.

Speaking of feng shui, Granny Hua hurriedly asked: "When I bought this house back then, I said that it was lively here, why is it not like that at all today?" Old sister, tell me quickly, why is the feng shui here bad? ”

The two old ladies are even more interested, and you and I will explain this matter clearly.

It turned out that fifteen or sixteen years ago, this place was haunted, and it was the courtyard that had not been sold for ten years, and there was originally a lot of porcelain in that courtyard, and there was an old man who was responsible for taking care of these porcelain.

One day in the middle of the night, the old man ran out of the yard in the middle of the night and knocked on the gate of the owner's yard, shouting as he knocked: "Murder, murder!" ”

The proprietor was woken up by him, and hurriedly got up, and took people to the courtyard to check, but there was not even a figure, but the old man was convinced, he saw the murder, and he said that when he got up at night, he saw someone on the wall.

The wall head that the old man said is the wall in the middle of this courtyard and the courtyard next door, the walls of the two courtyards are next to each other, and there is a wall gap in the middle that only allows one person to pass sideways.

Next door is the courtyard of Granny Hua's house, although it has been sold, but no one has lived in it, the old man said, he saw someone climbing the wall, and was about to ask, but suddenly there was a silver light, poof, it shot into the man's chest, and the man fell off the wall.

But the proprietor took people and searched all over his yard, but he didn't see the person the old man said.
