"Oh, Mr. Li is going out, I want to prepare a meal for you at noon today?"

When the innkeeper saw that Li Chengjing was about to go out, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

After all, he is a businessman, and in addition to being exquisite, he is also very good at being a person.

Not to mention Li Chengjing's check-in, it was handled by the shopkeeper of Huangyuecheng's largest Mi firm, and on the first day of check-in, he was invited to a banquet by the county master.

Even if I don't know what Li Chengjing is, the shopkeeper also knows that this is definitely a real guest.

After getting along in the past few days, although he hasn't chatted much, he can also see that Li Cheng is respectful, and when he talks to him, he has a sense of coercion from a superior person.

It is even more so that the shopkeeper does not dare to slack off.

Li Chengjing stopped and said with a smile: "If there are more shopkeepers, you don't need to prepare today, and you may not come back at noon." ”

"Okay!"

After a casual polite sentence, Li Chengjing walked out of the inn and saw the shopkeeper Liao, who had been waiting for a long time, waiting on the street with a carriage.

Li Chengjing said with a smile: "Why do you need Shopkeeper Liao to come in person for this little thing, just send someone to inform you!" ”

The shopkeeper Liao hurriedly smiled and said: "Mr. has a life-saving grace for Liao, Liao has nothing to repay, he can only do some work on these little things, if even this gentleman is not willing to let Liao do it, then Liao's conscience is uneasy!" ”

Li Chengjing nodded helplessly and got into the carriage.

It has been five days since Mi Qing's last banquet.

Although it exceeded the promise of Shopkeeper Liao that he could find it within three days when he patted his chest, the matter was finally done.

Li Chengjing naturally can't blame the other party for things that exceed the time, after all, even the county government took five days to find that person, if he changes his life and is not familiar with himself, he doesn't know how long it will take.

Although Li Chengjing doesn't care about spending more time, maybe it's better to hurry up.

The carriage quickly left Huangyue City, and walked all the way for almost an hour before stopping in a village.

When I lifted the curtain, I saw the door of a fairly spacious house.

Liao shopkeeper introduced: "The person Mr. asked me to find is the former owner of this family, but the other party has died of illness five years ago, it is said that after the death of the other party's wife, this person has been depressed all day long, and others say that he is lovesick and chased his wife." This house was also purchased by the other party later, Xu was afraid of seeing things and thinking about people, so he changed his residence and moved out of the city, and it took us some twists and turns to find it. ”

Li Chengjing nodded, arched his hand and said, "There is a shopkeeper of Lao Liao!" ”

"You're welcome, sir!"

"And who is this family now?"

Shopkeeper Liao hurriedly said: "This is Zhou Tao, Zhou Yuanwai's nephew lives." After Zhou Tao's wife left, she did not continue the string and had no heirs. Later, before Zhou Tao died, he left all the family property to his nephew. ”

Seeing that Li Chengjing said that he knew, the shopkeeper Liao did not wait for Li Chengjing to come forward and knock on the door, so he immediately stepped forward to do it for him.

After a short and powerful knock on the door, a young man with a haggard look opened the door for a long time, and when he saw the shopkeeper Liao, he immediately smiled and said, "Ah, it turned out to be the shopkeeper Liao, I didn't expect you to come so soon!" ”

Shopkeeper Liao came to say hello in advance, and he knew that person.

Shopkeeper Liao introduced with a smile: "Zhou Jian, this is what I said earlier, the deceased of your uncle Zhou Tao, this time I came here to pay tribute." ”

"Sir, this is Zhou Tao's nephew! What are you looking at, sir? ”

At this time, the shopkeeper Liao found that Li Chengjing did not look at them, but stood outside the carriage and looked at the entrance of the village.

The village is not large, with only about 30 households, and the dirt roads in the village can be seen at a glance.

And Li Chengjing was looking at the entrance of the village.

Hearing calling himself, Li Chengjing turned around and smiled: "It's nothing? Under Li Chengjing, I have seen Brother Zhou! ”

Where did that person dare to slack off, and hurriedly returned the salute: "Xiucai Zhou Inspection, I've seen Mr. Li!" I heard that my uncle's old friend came to pay respects, and the students were ready, just waiting for Mr. to move. ”

"No hurry!" Li Chengjing waved his hand, and then said: "It's not a secret, I am actually not Zhou Tao's old friend, but entrusted by his old friend to come, but I didn't expect Zhou Yuanwai to have passed away." ”

Zhou Jian was stunned for a moment, and then he didn't pay much attention to it, and said in his heart: "No wonder, I said that my uncle is more than forty years old, counting the past five years, it is also nearly fifty, how can there be such a young old friend." I see. ”

Zhou Jian had a sudden expression of realization on his face, and said, "It's okay, it's actually not bad!" In any case, it was rude to entertain guests outside the door, and I also invited Mr. Li and Shopkeeper Liao to move to the house. ”

As Zhou checked into Zhou's house, Liao's shopkeeper also carried a food box for sacrifice and worship.

Compared with the surrounding farmers, the Zhou family is an extremely luxurious rich family, and it is a three-entry house.

When they arrived at the living room and sat down, there was a handsome woman with a woman's hair in a bun serving tea for Li Chengjing and Liao's shopkeeper.

"This is an insider, and the lack of a family member at home is a snub to the distinguished guest!" Zhou Jian hurriedly introduced.

Li Chengjing and Shopkeeper Liao hurriedly thanked him.

"There's Mrs. Lao Zhou!"

Mrs. Zhou smiled lightly, and after generously returning the salute, she withdrew.

Li Chengjing said straight to the point: "Although Zhou Yuanwai is still gone, he still found it." My contemporary friend has a good life to pay tribute. It's just that there are some small things I want to ask, and I ask Brother Zhou to tell me. ”

Zhou Jian nodded and said with a smile: "Sir, excuse me." ”

"I don't know what Zhou Yuanwai's appearance was when he died, and when he was buried, he was wearing his favorite clothes......

Zhou Jian was stunned, what was the problem, and at the same time, he was a little annoyed in his heart.

But he glanced at the shopkeeper Liao on the side.

In the end, he held back the anger in his heart, and said with some sadness: "My uncle has been depressed every day since my aunt died, and his appearance has gradually lost weight. Although I have seen many doctors, but are helpless, when he died, the body has been less than 100 catties, described as withered, it is really painful for me and other descendants, when he was buried, it is natural for us to prepare a good shroud, is embroidered with gourd pattern of the best black shroud......"

Zhou Jian focused on the longevity clothes purchased for Zhou Tao, the location of the coffin and the cemetery, and secretly told Li Chengjing and the shopkeeper Liao that he was not a wicked person who usurped his uncle's inheritance, and he would not treat his uncle badly, and he was perfect in human etiquette.

Shopkeeper Liao looked embarrassed, and he didn't expect that Li Chengjing would ask such a rude question.

However, the Mi family business bank is not only the largest business house in Huangyue City, but also the county magistrate of Huangyue City is also a member of the Mi clan.

Even if Zhou Jian is angry, he can only endure it.

Then he followed Zhou Jian to Zhou Tao's grave and paid a simple tribute.

Out of courtesy, Zhou Jian still has to receive Li Chengjing.

While waiting for the meal, Li Chengjing said: "I'm walking around the village at will, you don't have to come along!" ”

Shopkeeper Liao nodded in agreement and chatted with Zhou Jian.

Li Chengjing walked out of Zhou's house and walked towards the entrance of the village by himself.

There is an old locust tree at the entrance of the village, which is not luxuriant, but it also has its own shade, and there are several large stones with smooth surfaces below.

There was an old man who was dressed in a thick coat embroidered with gourds on a black background, sitting under a tree, his eyes always looking into the distance.

Even when Li Chengjing approached, he didn't seem to notice it.

Li Chengjing sat on a stone beside him and followed his gaze into the distance.

At this time, I heard him muttering in a low voice: "Why haven't you come back, why haven't you come back!" ”

There was a sense of grief and sadness in his voice.

Li Chengjing sighed, since the ugly girl turned into a Gu Yu bird and was killed, she was destined to be scattered, and she didn't even have the opportunity to be reincarnated.

He looked at the old man and said, "The old man is gone, so why bother with it." There is a cycle of life and death, even if you wait, when you go to Yin Si and are reincarnated, a bowl of Meng Po soup, what mountains and sea vows, and affection have all come to naught. What's the point of you waiting? ”

But the old man didn't pay attention to Li Chengjing at all, he still stared blankly into the distance, and still kept saying why he hadn't come back.

Ask what is the situation in the world, and the straight teach people to live and die!

Li Chengjing never believed in love, but seeing the old man's appearance, Li Chengjing suddenly believed it.

Whether it is the ugly girl's almost obsessive maternal love, or the old man's almost obsessive waiting, they all tell Li Chengjing that there is love in this world!

"Zhou Tao, don't wait. What's the use of your lien on that? It's been five years, and ordinary ghosts have long been washed into ashes by the wind of heaven and earth, and you can still hold on because you secretly grabbed your nephew's yang energy to hold on until now. You have to know that if you do this, it is harmful to yin and morality, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the people you are waiting for, and you have to think about your own nephew! ”

Hearing Li Chengjing call out his name, the old man was shocked and looked at Li Chengjing in surprise.

"You can see me!"

Seeing that the other party finally responded, Li Chengjing smiled and nodded.

Then he said, "Your wife has already gone to the underworld, so you don't have to wait any longer." It's better to go to Chenghuang quickly, and go down early to find her! ”

"My wife? My wife is long dead, how did you meet her? The old man looked suspicious.

Li Chengjing was also a little surprised to see that he didn't look like that kind of nightmare ghost, and he had such a clear way of thinking.

So he said: "Three years ago, I met her soul by chance, and I was grateful that she was a sentient ghost, and she once did me a favor, so I promised her to come to you and give you some help within my ability." It's a pity that you are dead, people can't be resurrected after death, I can only wake you up, don't let you wait for your wife to come back! ”

After hearing this, the old man's expression suddenly became excited, his whole body trembled, he knelt on the ground with a puff, and shouted: "Immortal, you must be an immortal, I need help, I need help, please favor the immortal, help me, help me!" ”

As he spoke, he kept kowtowing.

Li Chengjing sighed and said in his heart: "Could it be that there are other unfulfilled wishes?" ”

Thinking of his promise to the ugly girl, Li Chengjing said: "Get up and say, if you can do it, I will help you!" ”

The old man was overjoyed, but he still knelt and said, "Please help me find my lover, just look at her and look at her again, and I will die without regrets!" ”

Li Chengjing was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "But your wife has already gone to the underworld, so you will naturally be able to see her when you go down!" ”

The old man was also stunned and said, "I didn't say it was my wife!" My most cherished love, she's still alive! ”

Li Chengjing: ???

Suddenly, Li Chengjing had the urge to slap the other party to death, and after half a day together, Bai was moved!

Some people died, but not completely......
