Chapter 158: Old Lady Xie Wan
I thought it would be enough to come back that day, but I didn't think there would be anything more exaggerated.
"You mean that Xie Heng not only has to come back that day, but he also has to fly back the next night?" I asked incredulously.
"Not the next night." Xie Wan took over the conversation, and said in a somewhat cold voice, "It's a plane at six o'clock in the morning the next day. In his words, the day he took the leave was on his birthday."
"Miss Ma, I want to ask if you all work outside the home like this? Even if the holiday rest is unstable, you have to work overtime in the middle of the night. Have you sold yourself to work?" Xie Wan, as a member of the older generation, asked very incomprehensibly.
"Old lady, in fact, your term is called 996 in our modern terms, but I think Mr. Xie's state should have reached 007." I said bluntly.
After all, 996 families still have one day off a week.
But does Xie Heng have it?
"It's really not, Ah Heng works all year round according to his working state, and he is more than 007 007." Wang Chengyu said truthfully.
For the two of us, Xie Wan, as a member of the older generation, couldn't understand it at all. He didn't interject rashly.
However, Lin Yi finally couldn't listen to it anymore and interrupted, "You didn't tell him that this legend of bad luck is not just talking. Is he really going to die because of it?"
"That's it, Boss Lin." Mentioning this, Wang Chengyu said with a bitter face: "How dare I not say such a big thing repeatedly, and not only me, but even the old lady said it. But Ah Heng didn't believe it. He said that this is feudal superstition and dross, and it is all a trick to fool people and deceive people, and it should have been abandoned a long time ago. And said......"
"Okay, Mr. Wang, don't talk about it." I interrupted Wang Chengyu's words: "Mr. Xie doesn't believe in yin and yang, I know, you have said it before. We won't go into too much detail now."
After all, what Lin Yi and I did was yin.
Xie Yu, the ancestor of the Xie family, a hundred-year-old ghost is directly attached to the Baihuai comb at this moment.
It is a lie to say that we are the dregs of the times.
Who can be happy about this?
Seeing that my face was displeased, Wang Chengyu closed his mouth very interestingly.
I continued, "As a person in the new era, Xie Heng can understand that he doesn't believe or pay attention to these things. But didn't he personally experience the death of the sons of the Xie family? Isn't it strange that everyone has an accident after the age of twenty-seven?"
No matter how atheist you are, you have a saying.
"This ......" Wang Chengyu, who was still knowing everything just now, was a little eager to say at the moment.
"Mr. Wang?" I looked at Wang Chengyu and said bluntly.
Is there anything that can't be said about this?
Lin Yi, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Old lady, Mr. Wang, it's not that we want to break the casserole and ask to the end, but this matter is related to Xie Heng's life. So we can't let go of any clues."
"I understand." Xie Wan nodded with an old head, and then said in a quiet voice, "Actually, this is not something that cannot be said. It's just that it may be a little difficult for Xiao Wang to speak."
"Oh? Why?" I asked.
Having said that, if I hide it, it seems that I don't care about this business.
"Because since the elders, my Xie family's lineage has been passed on in a single line. It's not just that there are boys and not girls, but that there is only one child in each generation." After a pause, Xie Wan smiled and said, "Of course, this may also be because the Xie family can only live to be about twenty-seven years old, which is too short, so it will be like this."
I really didn't expect that.
If it is said that Xie Heng's predecessor of the previous generation, that is, Xie Heng's father only lived to be twenty-seven years old.
Then he really doesn't have any impression of his own father, and he doesn't have any uncles and aunts, so he has heard and experienced these two words personally, and it seems that he really doesn't need them.
"I'm sorry, old lady, I was presumptuous." Thinking about this, I finally knew why Wang Chengyu stopped talking.
The Xie family encountered such a terrifying curse of bad luck
That's it, the lineage is still withered to this point.
It's a bit hard to talk about.
"It doesn't matter." Who would have thought that Xie Wan didn't care, but smiled and waved his hand: "In fact, many people will think that the matter of yin and yang is so mysterious and outrageous. But I don't think a dead person is a living person before he dies. So if you peel back the cocoon like this and don't let go of any possibility, I think it's much better than doing a few pretentious rituals."
Heh, she would even praise me and Lin Yi?
Hearing Mrs. Xie's words, I couldn't help but raise my eyes to look at her, and then said, "The old lady is too awarded, we just do what we should do."
Who would have thought I wasn't ready to climb up?
Unexpectedly, Xie Wan was helped up by the subordinates beside her: "Mr. Lin, Miss Ma, I'm really sorry for the old age, you can ask Steward Qiu for the rest." He knows everything about the Xie family."
"Okay. The old lady walks slowly." Seeing that I hadn't come back to my senses yet, Lin Yi took the lead in taking over the conversation for me.
What's the situation, just after boasting, he left again?
"Why are you stunned, the old lady gives you some sunshine and you will be brilliant?" Lin Yi saw that I was still in place, touched my arm lightly and said, "Hurry up and work."
The words are not rough.
After hearing Lin Yi's matter, I nodded knowingly, and then, the two of us directly set our eyes on Steward Qiu who was left behind.
He was also very knowledgeable, and immediately said, "Mr. Lin, Miss Ma, if there is anything you want to ask, just ask. Old slave, I must know everything, and I have to say everything."
I have to say, in such a quaint super mansion in my hometown.
Hearing the voice of Steward Qiu, the old slave, I really have the illusion of dreaming back to the door of the Hui sect mansion a hundred years ago.
But I still have to do what I feel like I should do.
It's just that Lin Yi and I, including Xie Yu, asked all the questions that should be asked and what should not be asked.
Unfortunately, there has been no substantial gain.
Steward Qiu really knows everything, but what he knows is not useful to us.
In the end, it was Lin Yi who spoke: "That's it, Steward Qiu, let's go and take a look around the old mansion by ourselves, right?"
"That's all right, right?" After a pause, Lin Yi added again.
"Of course not." Steward Qiu hurried, nodded and smiled, "Mr. Lin, Miss Ma, I know you have a way to find the way. But some parts of the old mansion are still being renovated, and there are changes from before. Why don't I send two of my subordinates to follow you, so that I can lead you in the way when you need it?"
"Okay." I nodded immediately.
Xie Yu said before that he was familiar with the Xie family's old mansion.
But in the end, after a hundred years, the place has not changed, and there are still small discrepancies.
After seeing me nodding, Steward Qiu immediately arranged for two subordinates, a man and a woman.
Wang Chengyu left the old house and returned to the city first.
Wang Chengyu is not the protagonist this time, so his departure has no effect. And under the guidance of the Qiu family, we seriously visited the Xie family's old house again.
