Chapter 5 The Ubiquitous Paper Matchmaker

The woman listened to Xie Chen's words, and her face was a little ugly for a while.

"Sir, please don't joke if you don't buy it."

"If you are not a guest, we will not provide any services."

Xie Chen turned around and returned to the car, leaned into the car, and in a small box at the front of the car, he took out a card with the address.

"Take it."

Xie Chen threw the card to the woman in the shop.

"Red candles, window paper braziers."

"There is also a sedan chair and a golden hairpin, you have them ready for me."

"When the time comes, it will be delivered directly to this address, and I will pay you all the money at one time."

Hearing Xie Chen's commanding so arrogantly, the woman's originally cold expression regained enthusiasm.

"Yes sir."

"You go back and wait for a while, I'll arrange these items for you now."

Xie Chen nodded, turned around and raised his hand at the old steward on the side.

"Get in the car."

It wasn't until he returned to the passenger seat that Xie Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, he came out to get out of the dangerous ancient mansion first.

It's just that I didn't expect that the danger outside was not inferior to that of the ancient house.

This strange world is a step by step chess game, and if you make a wrong move, you have to give your life.

The old steward returned to the car and asked Xie Chen, "Uncle, will we go back now?" ”

Xie Chen's head grew at the thought of it, but he still nodded helplessly.

According to the time, there are still two and a half days before the candle night in the cave room.

It is estimated that there are not many hidden mysteries outside.

The focus of the next exploration needs to be all on the ancient mansion where there is no difference between the degree of exploration and zero.

The first thing to find out is which bride is the one who marries him and spends the night of candles in the cave room together?

Secondly, what was it that threatened his life on that night in the cave room?

Only by figuring out these can you have a chance to clear this quest.

But the dream is very full, and there are only two and a half days left in reality.

"That's a damn amount of work."

As soon as Xie Chen thought of this, he couldn't help but rub his temples that were faintly swollen and painful.

If you just figure out these things, it's not too difficult, but what I'm most afraid of is actually the accident that I don't know how many times I can survive this life.

The trigger conditions for the ability of pocket watches must be figured out as soon as possible.

While pondering these questions, the old steward had already driven the car back to the door of the house.

"Uncle, we're here."

It was the familiar voice that sounded in Xie Chen's ears again, pulling him back from his thoughts.

Xie Chen couldn't help but feel excited, and when he looked at the ancient mansion, the whole person was a little flustered.

I don't know why, it feels like someone has a knife to their throat.

Xie Chen just opened the car door and got out of the car, about to walk to the house.

Squeak.

But the door of the house opened by itself.

A figure stood in front of the gate, slender and plump, looking very attractive.

But Xie Chen's body was a little trembling at this time.

As soon as you come back, it's hellish difficulty!

The mother-in-law, who was wearing a white cheongsam, was leaning one hand on the door frame, looking at Xie Chen with cold eyes.

The old steward got out of the car slowly, and when he saw his mother-in-law, he bowed respectfully.

"Ma'am."

The mother-in-law pointed at Xie Chen with cold eyes and shouted.

"Fifth uncle! How did he end up here? ”

The old butler's cheeks visibly began to distort.

The skinny face, which was already skinny, actually began to regain a little fleshy feeling.

But the old steward's indifferent face was a little more flustered.

"Madam, I saw that Miss was pitiful, so I let him in, Miss was brought up by me since she was a child, she thinks of him so much, you can fulfill the two of them."

Xie Chen listened to the inconsequential conversation between the two of them, and only felt very strange.

Could it be that the current scene is back to when he and his fiancée were in love?

But why does this mother-in-law reject herself very much during the love period?

If you exclude yourself from being with your fiancée even during the love period, then there shouldn't be a wedding later.

Wrong! There must be an important clue that I missed.

It may even be related to how the wedding will be structured.

"Hurry up and let him get out of here!"

The mother-in-law's heart-rending screams directly brought Xie Chen back to reality.

The old steward also came over and patted Xie Chen's shoulder, and comforted helplessly: "Let's go first, young man, I told you that you shouldn't come." ”

Xie Chen exhaled and forced himself to calm down, and then said loudly to his mother-in-law, who was a little overemotional.

"Excited, do you think Lao Tzu wants to see you? What the hell is a place, Lao Tzu is not rare at all. ”

"Look at your decay."

Xie Chen cut off with disdain, and immediately turned around and ran outside the house after finishing his words.

The mother-in-law, who was leaning against the gate of the house, was stunned in place, looking at Xie Chen's back and feeling a little overwhelmed.

The old steward was also frightened by Xie Chen's words.

When did this kid speak so harshly?

After Xie Chen turned around and walked out of the inner courtyard of the ancient mansion, he leaned against the wall, for fear that he would expose his feet.

Joke.

Saying cruel things by yourself is just covering up his eyes and ears, where can he go?

But now there is a huge problem in front of you.

Two mothers-in-law and two fiancées, which one is normal?

I thought that according to the rules, the mother-in-law who would instruct herself to buy wedding items was probably normal.

But what if the mother-in-law who was originally normal was the one who objected to being with her daughter?

Then it's hard to say.

After he left, his mother-in-law and the housekeeper also returned to the ancient mansion, and Xie Chen also began to hold his breath.

He now had one more thing to confirm.

With the pace of progressing little by little, Xie Chen sneaked through the inner courtyard of the house step by step.

Under the cover of the flower bed, Xie Chen squatted and walked quickly, and after a while, he came to the side of the ancient house.

Bang knock.

As a voice sounded, Xie Chen's heart also hangs, and he immediately pasted his entire body to the wall of the ancient mansion.

A maid took a bag of unknown things, and walked straight out of the courtyard gate.

Xie Chen's brows furrowed, he had a complete view, and the bag was not a lot at all.

"It doesn't look like garbage, but what's in that bag?"

After thinking about it for a moment, Xie Chen still decided to move to follow.

You can put this matter at hand for a while, and there is no rush for the time being.

It's another familiar process.

The cat leaned over the flower bed, staring at the movement of the ancient mansion and running fast towards the gate of the courtyard.

Xie Chen turned around, and his body followed back to the wall outside the courtyard.

It's just that the maidservant girl before is almost at the corner of the street.

"Running so fast?"

From the time I just made the decision to keep up, it is estimated that it will not even take half a minute.

What is it that makes her so anxious?

"I'm going to see what happens today."

Xie Chen's body was cat, and he quickly followed.

The maidservant didn't notice that there was a person behind her for the time being, but just walked forward in a hurry, and even her appearance was a little stunned.

Xie Chen followed all the way until the corner before immediately stopping his body.

The maidservant stood not far away, dropping the bag in her hand with one hand, and a touch of scarlet came out of it, which made Xie Chen stare with his eyes open.

A piece of paper floated out of the bag, followed by a burst of laughter.

Hee-hee-hee.

Xie Chen even felt that the temperature around him had dropped by several degrees, and all that was transmitted to his brain was cold information.

The piece of paper began to swell and grow, and then a head was pinched out of its own mind.

Xie Chen's mouth opened wide in a daze, isn't this the paper matchmaker she has seen several times before?

How could it come out of the old house?

Could it be that the most crucial factor in this copy is that it is right?

Xie Chen shook his head and pinched his cheek fiercely, for fear that he would be hallucinated by others again.

Only this time, a sharp pain followed.

"This ...... Is it true? ”

If there is a paper matchmaker in the ancient house.

Isn't it possible for a mother-in-law to be it?

In addition, the pre-wedding shop and the white shop are linked to it, and the next few details, Xie Chen didn't even dare to think about it.

How can this make people play...

A proper dead end.

Xie Chen continued to stare at the paper matchmaker who appeared, wanting to see where it would go next.

I saw the paper matchmaker hanging up the contents of the bag with one hand and throwing it into the air.

A scarlet sheet fell, covering it completely.

In the next second, the paper matchmaker also disappeared out of thin air.

Along with the scarlet sheets, they disappeared without a trace.

The maidservant girl who came out of the ancient mansion, after the paper matchmaker disappeared, also staggered and lay on the ground, her whole body was soft, as if she had no strength.

Xie Chen still stood in place and did not act rashly, after all, he was not sure for the time being, whether the paper matchmaker had completely disappeared.

The scene has been deadlocked, and Xie Chen is also embarrassed.

After struggling for a while, Xie Chen gritted his teeth and prepared to go out to see how the maid was.

It's just that when he just took a step, the woman woke up in a daze, and then stood up with a confused face.

He just looked around blankly, as if he didn't know why he was here.

"It's weird......"

The maidservant scratched her head and stood up, dusting herself off.

"She's this?"

When Xie Chen saw her posture, that blank feeling didn't look like a fake.

This made Xie Chen panic for a while.

If this is the case, then the speculation just now will have to be completely nullified.

The paper matchmaker is not this maidservant, and it is definitely impossible to be a mother-in-law.

Judging from the various behaviors from just now to now, this is more like manipulating what this servant girl is doing.

Thinking of the scene of the invitation to himself before, it seems that after entering the inner courtyard, the paper matchmaker did not attack him.

It is even more solid, the paper matchmaker actually does not dare to appear in the ancient house.

This made Xie Chen breathe a sigh of relief, so that he didn't have to worry about the people in the house being this ghost thing.

Then there is still a possibility of clearing the customs.

But the next problem is that the paper matchmaker was brought out of the ancient mansion by the maidservant.

What is it doing in the old house?

What about the scarlet sheets that disappeared just now?

Just as Xie Chen was complaining about this new puzzle, the maid also followed.

It's about to turn a corner.

Xie Chen was stunned for a moment, just this road, but there is no place to hide.

If she sees this, will she be scolded again?
