Chapter Forty-Three: Something Happens at Home
Longchang Town.
Compared with last year, this year's Longchang Town is still smooth, the crops in the field have a small harvest, every household has surplus grain, and after autumn, it naturally ushered in a cool weather.
At the entrance, a fence is set up, and behind the fence is a simple wooden house.
In the wooden house is a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard, named Wei Shuang, which is a rather poetic name, but Wei Shuang himself is five big and three thick, and his face is slightly wide-mouthed and fanged.
is also because of his appearance, Wei Shuang suffered a lot of losses in finding a daughter-in-law when he was young, but in recent years, Wei Shuang doesn't know if the peach blossoms are here, or because his body is particularly tough, there are also some widows in Longchang Town, or some swaggering women, who often shush Wei Shuang and ask for warmth, and invite Wei Shuang into the house from time to time to cook noodles for Wei Shuang.
Occasionally, there is some laborious crop work in the field, and some women who are in their thirties and above, the first thing that comes to mind is to ask Wei Shuang to help, and after coming and going, there are more rumors about Wei Shuang in the town, and some middle-aged men with families are suspected of being very envious of Wei Shuang in private.
Before I knew it, a carriage had arrived at the entrance.
Wei Shuang lay on the rocking chair on all fours, and after catching a glimpse of the old and young man and a yellow dog in the carriage out of the corner of his eye, he showed a surprised look.
"Long time no see." Chu Nan looked at Wei Shuang and said with a smile.
Chu Nan glanced at the fence, this is a very simple level, but as long as there is this man who is five big and three thick here, it is difficult for outsiders to enter it.
Wei Shuang took a closer look at the yellow dog Gengmeng, and then smiled at Chu Nan with a strange smile: "Anyway, he can be regarded as a person who went on a long trip, why didn't he come back with a beautiful daughter-in-law?" ”
"Or did you do a lot of work outside, and finally lifted your pants and didn't admit it?"
Chu Nan touched his forehead helplessly, he was still familiar with Wei Shuang, I really didn't know how cool he could be when he was thinking about these things.
"I have a pure temperament, you really think too much, I remember that before I left home, there were a lot of rumors about you in the town, and now this year and a half have passed, I don't know if some of the girls in the town have big bellies?" Chu Nan quipped.
Wei Shuang's face immediately darkened slightly, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm still a virgin." ”
Chu Nan laughed at it, but he didn't hear anything about it.
Wei Shuang glanced at the carriage again, and the fox asked, "There shouldn't be a woman hidden in the carriage, right?" ”
Chu Nan suddenly laughed angrily: "You are a person, you can't do without a woman in three sentences, the carriage is empty, don't you believe you go in and have a look?" ”
Wei Shuang hurriedly shook his head and said, "Just kidding, I can still trust you, after you leave, I often go to your house to fetch water and eat." ”
Subsequently, Wei Shuang opened the fence, and the carriage officially entered Longchang Town.
After Chu Nan got out of the car, he took out a hard golden scale from the space vessel and handed it to Wei Shuang, saying, "This thing is more ostentatious, but it can still be used as jewelry, a little heart." ”
This is the reverse scale on the Yellow River carp, according to Xiong Xiaomeng's little uncle, although this scale is not a high-class object, but if it is only used as a hidden weapon, it is also a good stream.
Wei Shuang took the scales and looked at the collar around the yellow dog's neck with a disgusted expression, and said, "Oh, I always thought you were a kind young man, but I didn't expect you to treat me like this." ”
Chu Nan was keenly aware of the subtle changes in Wei Shuang's eyes.
Slightly embarrassed, he said, "I also think something is wrong, so I have a gift for you." ”
Wei Shuang said impatiently: "If you have any bezoar dog treasure, take it out quickly." ”
Chu Nan opened the space vessel and took out a picture album that was difficult to describe, Chu Nan didn't dare to look at this album with his eyes.
Seeing this, Wei Shuang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he snatched the album and said with great emotion: "In this huge Longchang Town, the person who knows me best is a young man like you." ”
The content on the album is exactly the content that many single men have been thinking about for a long time, and some of the scales are shocking.
This album is also a small color given to Chu Nan by the owner after Chu Nan closed the case, which is said to have come from everyone's handwriting, but it is not very clear whether it is true or false.
At that time, Chu Nan didn't want it, but as a result, Lao Chen wanted to see the real face, and in desperation, Chu Nan had no choice but to ask for it, Chu Nan had never seen the content above, and Lao Chen was on that part of the road, holding this album in his hand almost day and night.
The older a man is, the more immodest he is, and the same is true for women.
Wei Shuang turned the page at random, holding back the dark refreshment in his heart, and the old god said to Chu Nan: "For your sake, I will tell you two news, one is good news and the other is bad news. ”
"It's news about your old house."
Chu Nan frowned slightly, the old mansion is a treasure of feng shui, Chu Nan's family has a small population, but there has been no direct robbery in the town over the years.
"What's the bad news?" Chu Nan asked.
Wei Shuang pretended to be serious and said: "The bad news is that your old mansion is now occupied, and it is a mess for you." ”
Chu Nan's heart immediately sank, and he asked again, "So what's the good news?" ”
Wei Shuang couldn't help but laugh and said, "The people who live in your old mansion are the Four Heavenly Kings. ”
Chu Nan: "......"
There are four heavenly kings in Longchang Town, and the four of them are brothers, but they are all delirious and often have crazy behaviors.
In the past, the four brothers were crammed into a dilapidated mud house, and they either relied on stealing chickens and dogs, or harassing neighbors and forcibly demanding food.
The names of these four heavenly kings are purely depreciative.
The people in the town felt very bad for these four brothers, not to mention that they were deeply disgusted, and they felt extremely bad luck when they saw these four brothers, but ah, these four brothers were very vindictive, and if anyone provoked these four brothers, they would either secretly set fire to the house in the middle of the night, or the latrine would be demolished.
It is said that once, in the middle of the night, a husband and wife were engaged in a matter of common sense, and the four brothers suddenly smashed a big transparent hole in the roof of the house, and there are many similar things.
Hate to hate, but you can't afford to provoke it.
Chu Nan had mixed feelings in his heart at the moment, and asked: "What happened here?" ”
Wei Shuang also looked at Chu Nan with a sympathetic expression, and said: "After you leave, the neighbors will go to your well to fetch water to eat according to the note you left, and the Four Heavenly Kings are also among them." ”
"It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, after the winter, first your relatives wanted to forcibly occupy your old house, and some neighbors received your affection, such as me, we spontaneously organized and poked the backbone of your relatives, and your relatives had to give up when they saw the general trend."
"But after the New Year, your relatives and the old Wu family in the town joined forces and directly entered your old house, intending to directly forcibly occupy it, and the neighbors were jealous of the old Wu family's obscenity, and they were also trying to find a way to break the situation for you."
"As a result, the Four Heavenly Kings found out about this, and they rushed directly into your old house, first beating your relatives, and then pressing all the people of the old Wu family to the ground and rubbing them."
"Don't you know, these four heavenly kings can be said to be good at fighting, four people together, there is really a bit of momentum that can shake thousands of troops, this is not the end, the four heavenly kings even killed the old Wu family in the middle of the night, injured a number of family members, and seemed to have demolished the ancestral hall of the old Wu family, and the people of the old Wu family also planned to kill the big king directly, but the town elder heard the wind and came, and on the grounds that the four heavenly kings were delirious, he turned this matter into a big thing, a small matter, and it was over."
Anyway, such a fuss killed the prestige of the old Wu family, and the neighbors didn't see the jokes of the old Wu family less during those days.
As soon as he heard this, Chu Nan's face was mixed with light and dark, and he didn't know how to say it for a while.
Wei Shuang said with a strange smile: "But one thing is for sure, your house is definitely full of holes at this time, and it is estimated that when you sleep at night, there are mice burrowing into the bed." ”
The living habits of the Four Heavenly Kings are not flattering.
Chu Nan's scalp tingled for a while when he heard this, and said, "Let's talk later, I'll go home and have a look first." ”
After that, Chu Nan, Lao Chen, and Huang Gou hurriedly got into the carriage and hurried home.
Half an hour later.
Chu Nan and Lao Chen drove the carriage to the door of the house, the main door opened, the corner of the door, the crack in the door, full of cobwebs, except for a path that was stepped on artificially, surrounded by weeds, overgrown weeds, almost buried people.
When I entered the courtyard, I saw that the smoke and vines were imaginary, but there was an indescribable stench in the air, like the smell of the thatched toilet mixed with the smell of foot sweat.
Chu Nan touched his forehead sadly.
Lao Chen on the side also pinched his nose, and when the two of them entered the inner courtyard and looked at it again, it was chaotic, and the smell of urine came to their nostrils, it was not a secret that the Four Heavenly Kings were everywhere, but it was still a little difficult to accept it for a while.
The beams, walls, and cobwebs are dense, and there is no doubt that there must be a miasma of smoke in the house.
Chu Nan couldn't cry or laugh for a while, speaking of which, the Four Heavenly Kings guarded the old mansion for themselves, and they couldn't lose their temper.
Suddenly, the yellow dog pricked up its ears.
Inside the room, four figures rushed out, the four of them were wearing black cloaks, tall figures, and there was a strange smell all over their bodies, Chu Nan and Lao Chen hurriedly retreated when they saw this.
"Don't come near me." Chu Nan said with a little disgust.
The boss of the Four Heavenly Kings had a scruffy beard, looked at Chu Nan with dull eyes, and said with a smile: "You are finally back." ”
The second child was full of flesh and said with a sinister smile: "This house is ours." ”
The third child is tall and burly, with a Chinese face, if it weren't for the three scars on his face, if he dressed up a little, he would really be a handsome man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
The third half bowed, made a grimace at Chu Nan, stuck out his tongue and said, "The second child is wrong, the house is not ours, but ours." ”
"No, it's ours, it's not right, it's not ours."
A few words were inarticulate, and the third child shook his head extremely depressed.
The fourth child was skinny, his face was full of dirt, and he shouted: "You are back, it is good for you to come back, when you come back, you will cook for us, wash our clothes, find us a daughter-in-law, and if you are disobedient, you will be cleaned up." ”
After finishing speaking, he also waved his fist at Chu Nan in the air.
Chu Nan was extraordinarily calm, and when he thought that these four heavenly kings could cure the strange problems of the old Wu family, he was still a little in awe in his heart.
If there was a fight, Chu Nan would really not be able to beat these four people.
However, after the yellow dog bared its fangs and barked twice, the Four Heavenly Kings were suddenly frightened and retreated, revealing a frightened look on their faces.
"Big brother, don't come here."
"Take care of your dog."
"You must not bite us, or we will fight with you."
The Four Heavenly Kings were stunned, and their eyes were full of fear.
Chu Nan glanced at Lao Chen suspiciously, in Chu Nan's memory, the Four Heavenly Kings often did things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, and they killed other people's watchdogs and ate meat several times.
Now, I am so afraid of the yellow dog.
Measured by common sense, the Four Heavenly Kings were delirious and couldn't see that the yellow dog was a golden beast.
Chu Nan had a plan for a while, and said to the yellow dog: "Give them a ruthless one!" ”
Wangwang......
The yellow dog responded immediately, and the roar stirred the entire courtyard, and even made a gesture of culling forward, this time it really frightened the four heavenly kings.
Immediately frightened, the four of them curled up on the ground and shivered, and the third child was even foaming at the mouth, and he was really going to faint.
Seeing this, Chu Nan's heart was full of surprise.
Hurriedly said to the yellow dog: "Come back, don't scare people." ”
After the yellow dog roared, he returned to Chu Nan's side with great satisfaction.
The Four Heavenly Kings were slightly relieved when they saw the yellow dog retreat, but their faces were still terrified.
Chu Nan thought about it for a while, and asked thoughtfully, "Are you disobedient?" ”
The Four Heavenly Kings immediately nodded their heads like chickens pecking rice, and said in unison: "We are obedient, we will do whatever you tell us to do, we will really be obedient." ”
Chu Nan was ecstatic in his heart, the yellow dog really made a great contribution this time.
Otherwise, he really didn't know how to face these four heavenly kings with amazing combat power.
Chu Nan subconsciously ordered: "Hurry up, clean up the house for me, otherwise I will close the door and let the dog go, inside and out, big and small, all the big and small places will be cleaned up for me!" ”
As soon as the Four Heavenly Kings heard this, they were in place in an instant, sweeping the floor, pulling weeds, what should they do.
Chu Nan pinched his nose again and said, "Let's go back to the carriage for a while first, and then we'll come back after they have cleaned up." ”
Lao Chen nodded slightly, and the yellow dog Gengmeng suddenly swelled at this moment, and followed Chu Nan in a small gesture of inviting merit and reward.
After returning to the carriage, Lao Chen and Chu Nan took out dry food and meat pieces and ate them.
"Or take them in?" Lao Chen suddenly spoke.
Chu Nan understood what Lao Chen meant, it was true that the Four Heavenly Kings were delirious, but it was also true that their combat power was not bad, and they were really good at taking care of the home.
After thinking about it, he said, "After they finished cleaning, we had to clean many places again, such as beds and bedding, and we had to wash them again. ”
"After doing this, I'm going to send them back to their old house."
"If their house collapses, I will pay for them to build a new house, and if they are short of food, I will give them food."
"Reasonably, they all kept their home for me."
"I've got to say something."
"Even if you are a fool, you have human rights, and you have your own life and attitude, I can't take advantage of their mental incompleteness and let them become our servants, this is not right."
After hearing this, Lao Chen said helplessly: "What if they pester you in the future?" ”
Chu Nan also thought about this matter, and responded: "If you are so jealous of Geng Meng, you shouldn't be able to pester me." ”
"If they really pester me, I can also take advantage of their mental defects to return them to their own places and let them fend for themselves."
After hearing this, Lao Chen showed a relieved smile and said, "This is also a safe method. ”
"Forget it, we'll talk about it later."
