Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 145: Lady Chai (plus more)
A curse?
When I heard these words, my eyes lit up and Auntie Zhuang asked, “Auntie, how did you know it was a curse? ”
Aunt Zhuang had not noticed my existence, so at this moment she weighed me in surprise, and even cursed with some unhappiness: "Ning, have you forgotten the rules in town? Who told you to bring back strangers? Who is he?”
Zhuangning glanced at me and explained without thinking: “He is my college president and takes care of me...” After that, he pretended to have a shy look.
Indeed, when Aunt Zhuang listened, her earlier vigilance suddenly dissipated, but she said with some joy: “Oh, is this your boyfriend? Me and your dad rushed a few times and it didn't work out, so we were secretly in love. ”
Then I looked up and down again and nodded with great satisfaction.
Is this how the legendary mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law?
New Moon, this is acting, you know!
Zhuangning glanced at his father and said worried: "Mom, when did this happen? You have other thoughts. Tell me what happened to my father. Let me be honest with you, this elder ancestor passed on some amazing talent, maybe he can help. ”
Perhaps because the status of 'associate son-in-law' boosted too much, Aunt Zhuang was no longer hostile to me. She sighed softly and said: “It's not because of the antiques. Heavy rain washed away the ancient tombs on the mountain the other day. The villagers went up the mountain to taobao. When they saw the tomb, they went in. In the wake of those heavy rains, everyone found a lot of good things, and your father took several pieces. ”
Zhuang Ning frowned and complained: "Mom, why don't you stop Daddy from doing this? ”
“Can I stop it?” Aunt Zhuang was unhappy: “Besides, your father didn't do it for you. How much is a square meter for a house in the city? You just got into work, you expect your salary, you can't afford to work for 10 years, your father also wants to help you share a little. If these treasures stolen from the grave are really worth 8,000 children, the pressure to sell the house is not that great. ”
Zhuangning's eyes became red after listening to it.
The farther I saw the topic, the more I rushed to ask, "Auntie, what was the curse you just said? ”
Aunt Zhuang glanced at me and said to Zhuang Ning: “Do you remember the chai maid who lives in our town? ”
“The one who's always nagging?” After Zhuangning received a positive response from Aunt Zhuang, she explained to me: “Madam Chai is an old resident of our town, has no children. She is said to have had a fever when she was a child and has had a broken brain. Since then, she has been a little nervous. She has always spoken to herself by herself and sometimes speaks scary things like ghosts. The town didn't like her and tried to avoid her on foot. ”
Aunt Zhuang went on to say, "That's her! When the men went to the burglar's grave, she was full of madness and said that there was a terrible curse hidden in the ancient tomb on the mountain, and once the curse came out, the whole black town had to die. ”
Zhuangning said with disdain: "Do you believe Madam Chai's words? She's crazy herself. ”
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.” Aunt Zhuang listened to Zhuang Ning and quickly covered her mouth, afraid to be heard by outsiders: “She tried so hard to stop the men from entering the mountain to find the tomb, but there were so many babies in front of her, who would listen to a crazy woman? By the time your dad got back with the baby, Madame Chai had hanged herself in a cardboard parlor outside town. ”
“Ah?” Zhuangning obviously didn't expect it to turn out like this, shocked and opened his mouth.
When I first came into Blackjacket, I saw a palace, and all of a sudden, a thin old lady hung herself on it, and her bright red tongue spit out the image of the elder.
Aunt Zhuang continued: “After Madam Chai's death, the men who entered the mountain began to suffer successive accidents, several consecutive deaths. People in town are scared. I only wrote a letter to you because I was afraid. I didn't expect this to end up on your father..."
Aunt Zhuang just said this, there was a fierce thunder outside, scared her head into Zhuangning's arms.
Zhuang Ning patted her back in peace: “Mom, don't be afraid, I'm back, everything's with me.” She finished, begging for a glance at me.
I nodded resolutely, saying that I would definitely take care of the strange things here.
The atmosphere became a little sad. At this moment, two young people broke in. Before the first person stood still, he shouted: “Aunt Zhuang, how is Uncle Zhuang? Munjin's dad can't do it! ”
“Ah?” Aunt Zhuang raised her head shockingly from Zhuangning's arms: “When did this happen? I went to see him only this morning, and he's alive. ”
“Just now. ”
The young man who came in immediately saw Zhuangning and shouted with surprise: "Ning, when did you get back? ”
Zhuang Ning nodded at his polite location: “Er-Hu, it's been a long time. I just got back too.” Smiled at another young man: “Dragon, you're here too. ”
A young man named Da Long noticed Zhuang Ning and I, some wary asked, “Who is he? ”
Without Zhuangning answering, Aunt Zhuang had already grabbed the introduction like a donation of treasure: “This is Xiaoning's boyfriend, working in the big city. ”
I couldn't help but turn a white eye deep inside, Aunt Zhuang must be the legendary pig teammate! Can you see that the attitude of these two young men towards Zhuang Ning is very vague. Didn't his introduction push me into the fire pit?
I had to bore my scalp and greet the two of them politely.
Dalong grinned at Zhuangning: “Who asked you to bring back strangers? Do you know the rules of the town? ”
Zhuang Ning frowned and was very unhappy: “This is my home, I don't care who I invite back. Don't forget, your father is the mayor of Blackjacket, not you! Even your father doesn't have the right to worry about my family...”
“You!” Dalong blushed.
Er-Hu hastily persuaded him: “Shut up, Xiao Ning hasn't come back in years. Why are you still fighting like when you were little? Da Long, don't forget the business. We're here to talk about Manjin's family situation. ”
Dalong looked at me with hatred and turned around and said to Aunt Zhuang: “Wen Jin's father is dead and the family is preparing for the aftermath. My father asked me to come and take a look at Uncle Zhuang's situation. ”
Aunt Zhuang listened to him and sat on the floor with a fright in her ass. She moaned and muttered: “Done, Wen is dead too. It's almost our turn..."
