Li Chaiyuan hung up the phone.
Lu Yi next to him asked with concern: "Something happened to the village owner?"
"His wife won't let him in."
Lu Yi looked solemn and said: "This is a big deal in our Northeast, especially in this weather, since I was a child, I have heard several cases where my husband came home and knocked on the door when he was drunk in winter, and his wife was angry and didn't open it.
"He's not that serious."
Lu Yi: "I still have to persuade you well."
"Hmm."
Leaving the store, Chase Li walked towards Grandma Liu's house.
Aunt Liu is not at home recently, it is too early at this time, breakfast in the canteen has not been served yet, Li Chaiyuan plans to go to the canteen to buy breakfast after walking with Ah Li in the playground later, and buy the old lady's share as well.
As a result, as soon as I walked to the door of the courtyard, before I could open the door, I smelled a fragrance.
In the yard, many small stoves were raised, and an old man with white hair and beard, with two elderly women and two young women, was busy quietly inside.
This is preparing to eat.
The ingredients were prepared in advance, but to ensure the texture, they brought them here and cooked them on the spot.
The old man was busy while supervising his two daughters-in-law and two granddaughters-in-law.
Seeing Li Chaiyuan come in, the old man was suspicious at first, then raised the spoon with his left hand and saluted with his right hand.
"Brother, who are you?"
"I'm from home."
The old man immediately turned off the engine, put down the guy in his hand, and saluted Li Chaiyuan seriously.
He performed the outer door ceremony of the Liu family, which means that the nominal Liu family does not pass on the art.
Seeing this, the four women next to them also stopped their work and saluted Li Chaiyuan.
Li Chaiyuan avoided the etiquette sideways and said: "The old lady said that there is no need for old etiquette at home."
"The old lady is considerate of the people below us, but we can't be ignorant of etiquette."
"You guys have worked hard."
"I dare not, it is our blessing to get the opportunity to serve the old lady."
Li Chaiyuan walked into the house.
The old man immediately urged his children and daughters-in-law to continue to work quickly.
His family opened a restaurant in Jinling, which is not famous in the ordinary market, because those who can book a table at his house are either rich or expensive.
This restaurant was the property of the Liu family in the early years, only entertaining the Liu family's own family and distinguished guests holding invitations from the Liu family.
After the decline of the Qin and Liu families, the old lady dispersed most of the two families' properties, and there were no known number of mansions donated to cultural relics protection units.
The same is true for this meal, but the old lady is too generous to take advantage of the shares, thinking about the past feelings of the door, it is really a direct delivery.
No one is a fool, and no one is born to like to serve others, but there is no way, the old lady has given too much, so much that they feel embarrassed not to continue to be the person they are.
Of course, the old man also knows that profit is second-class, and it is more important for some characters to be able to flatter the incense.
If he was allowed to choose, he would really like to continue to work with his father on the Liu family's kitchen like he did when he was a child.
Liu Yumei was combing Ah Li's hair, and when she saw Li Chaiyuan coming, she simply handed the comb to the young man:
"You come, I'll go up and let them be quiet."
"Okay, grandma."
Li Chaiyuan took the comb and helped Ah Li comb her hair.
In the mirror, a smile appeared on Ah Li's face.
Liu Yumei saw it and just smiled, she no longer tasted it.
She couldn't help but think of the old thing surnamed Li in Nantong, who always liked to muttering that she was a "philistine old lady".
That guy Li Sanjiang didn't seem to be muttering anything wrong.
To put it bluntly, the son-in-law's status and treatment in the woman's family are won by his own ability and ability.
This truth, even in the Dragon King's family, is not exempt from the world.
Liu Yumei went upstairs, and when she came down again, Li Chaiyuan had already combed Ah Li's hair.
Afterwards, the boy took Ahri's hand and went for a walk on the playground.
When they returned, breakfast began.
The main dishes are nothing more than porridge, noodles, and wontons, but each one is made with exquisite ingredients and is extremely careful.
It is no exaggeration to say that her cooking skills are much better than Aunt Liu's, after all, Aunt Liu is just her own, and she can't just be busy cooking around the clock.
The children and granddaughters-in-law came in one by one with small dishes and plates to put them down, which was a deliberate attempt by the old man to show their faces.
In the end, the old man bent down and stood quietly next to him, waiting for the needs of the people at the table.
The old lady is different from before, she has taken off the burden on her shoulders, and her life at home has become more busy than in the past, and people have become more easy-going.
She picked up the chopsticks, picked up a soup bag and sent it to Li Chaiyuan's bowl: "The Ma family's pastry skills are unique in the whole of Jinling, you can try it."
After Li Chaiyuan bit off one side, he sucked the soup, and nodded after eating one:
"Well, it's delicious."
The old man next to him was relieved and smiled.
Liu Yumei smiled and said: "Yes, the craftsmanship has not fallen behind."
The old man replied: "I don't dare to fall behind, I can't guarantee that the old lady will suddenly think of this bite again one day, if you can't taste the taste before, it will be my sin."
Liu Yumei casually grabbed a handful of golden melon seeds from her pocket and put them on the table.
"Distribute it to the daughters-in-law."
The old man hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Old lady, this is unacceptable, unacceptable."
Liu Yumei: "It seems that the family has a big business, and I don't look down on this."
"How dare you forget your roots, how dare you forget your roots, you will be struck by lightning." The old man immediately carefully picked up the golden melon seeds into his hand.
Purely by weight, these golden melon seeds are nothing, but each one is exquisitely shaped, and the craftsmanship price even exceeds the price of gold itself.
"We will wait outside, you can tell us at any time."
The old man knew etiquette, holding the golden melon seeds in both hands, and walked backwards out of the restaurant.
Liu Yumei took a sip of porridge and said: "I know you don't like this set of things, but I think Ah Ting also reminded him that he is low-key enough, but the battle is still higher."
Li Zhuiyuan smiled and said: "I can understand."
"If you like it, let him continue to deliver meals in the future, how about that?"
"I still prefer what Aunt Liu does, it feels like home."
"Hehe, actually, A Ting's cooking skills are also learned from others, and they used to specialize in the stove in my hometown, and his craftsmanship is the taste of my Liu family."
"I see."
"Alas, not only on the stove, but also the theater troupe, tailoring team, florist gardening, etc., were all domestically raised in the past, exclusively for their own use.
This was a common practice in the past, but now, it is no longer practical."
When the old lady said this, there was no loneliness in her tone, only reminiscence, as if she was telling the juniors stories about the past.
Li Chaiyuan asked: "Where is the third floor......"
The old lady said bluntly: "It was originally prepared for you, and after Ali Ting and the others come back from plowing, I will ask Ali to send those things back to the old house."
"I wrote down your love."
"Is there still the latter sentence?"
"No."
"You boy." Liu Yumei shook her head, "Sometimes I wonder, why did they leave me alone, they all died by themselves."
"Grandma......
"Later, I gradually figured out the taste, and the co-author felt that I had not escaped from low-level hobbies yet, so they left me to better guard the house.
There are some things they can't do on their own, but they know that I can do it, and I'm not a master who likes to be reasonable.
It's really urgent, the big deal is to pull everyone to die together, but I don't want to keep the bullshit rules and moral reputation of those Lao Shizi.
I'm afraid that because of this, those family sects are really a little afraid of our broken family, and they don't dare to really come to the door to eat the family, because they know that there is an old lady in this family who will go crazy if she is in a hurry."
Li Zhuiyuan smiled calmly and said: "I don't think there's anything wrong with you doing this."
Liu Yumei played: "This is not like what they would say."
Li Chaiyuan: "Because I believe you can control the scope and will not hurt the innocent when retaliating."
Liu Yumei sighed: "Oh, this taste is right again, it's boring."
"Grandma, I'm going back to Nantong today."
"School winter vacation is so fast?"
"There is a conflict at my friend's house, please let me deal with it."
"Conflict between husband and wife?"
"Hmm."
"It's interesting." Liu Yumei's eyes showed playfulness, "Please mediate the conflict between husband and wife?"
The old lady really couldn't imagine this scene.
If this child used to be like a seven-orifice exquisite heart, it wouldn't be a problem.
But she had already seen that at some point, this child no longer maintained a cheerful and bright attitude towards anyone.
"It's the Bai family's business."
"Oh, it's about that kid?"
"Hmm."
"Do you need to go for a trip? Seeing that the New Year is approaching, let that kid send a message over there, let Ali bring a gift during the New Year, and go to their town again."
"I'm afraid he doesn't want to."
"Yo, is this really feeling?"
"It should be."
"That kid is also an interesting fool."
"The main thing is that he can't get in now, and he can't send a message even if he wants to."
"Then you can send someone to run."
"Most of my people are lying down now."
Liu Yumei looked at the house, and the two in the family were not at home now.
Li Chaiyuan: "Anyway, I have no money now, so I'll run by myself."
"I know what you mean, you really take that kid as a friend, but the one who can make you look at him will not be an ordinary person, that kid should also be angry."
"I didn't think so much."
"Only by planting willows unintentionally can you create shade."
After the meal, Li Chaiyuan and Ah Li entered the study, and he told Ah Li about his experience and his guesses about Wei Zhengdao.
After listening, Ah Li picked up the paintbrush and casually traced a few strokes on a piece of white paper, this is a draft.
On the draft, a teenager stood there, with the shadow of an adult behind him.
"I think it's very good, so I chose this design."
Ah Li nodded, looking around the draft drawing, the difficulty of this painting was how to deal with this large piece of blank space.
It is not impossible to highlight the artistic conception, but if it is used as a record, it still needs to be filled with enough details.
"I will come back after I finish dealing with Nantong. If it is delayed for a long time, I may not come back, when the time comes, I beg the old lady to take you back to Nantong, and we will celebrate the New Year together?"
Although Li Chaiyuan usually did not take classes according to the class schedule, he still took a lot of college courses.
However, it was near the end of the year, and many classes were over, especially the classes of the professors he liked, which basically had no class time.
In this case, it is of little significance to continue to stay in school, and he does not have to go to the final exam.
Because of Luo Gong's relationship, the school is very tolerant of him, but it may not be ruled out that he will have to represent the school in some competitions next semester.
Ah Li smiled, and she agreed.
In the past, she had long been accustomed to where the boy was and where her home was.
When Li Chaiyuan walked out of the yard, he saw the old man leading his children and daughters-in-law to move ingredients for noon.
"Brother, what do you want to eat at noon?"
"You don't have to worry about me, just prepare it according to the old lady's preferences, I want to go out and won't eat at home in the near future."
"Brother is a person who does big things, you are busy."
After Li Chaiyuan left by mistake, the old man turned around, bent over and said to the young man's back:
"Qinhuai Songxiang Building, when will my brother have free time, please come in and drink tea, and I will take the cubs to show my filial piety to my brother."
"I wrote it down."
After Li Chase walked away, the old man straightened his waist.
The children and granddaughters-in-law looked at each other, the old man was the person in charge of the family, with skills and status, and the rice was still in his hands, so he had a very high status at home on weekdays, and he looked unsmiling.
Since coming here today, the old man seems to have changed as a different person, if only he was so respectful to the old lady, after all, it was a master-servant relationship before liberation, can he be so servile to this young man?
The old man touched his beard, and he naturally saw the puzzlement in the eyes of his children and granddaughters-in-law, but he didn't bother to explain.
The old lady had breakfast, and there were only three people on the table, one was the old lady's granddaughter, and the other was the young man.
Such a person, not to mention that he has had incense in the past, even if it doesn't matter, he has to work hard to serve well.
How many people in the world are busy all their lives, just for a few taels of silver, but such a character, even if it is just a little bit flowing between your fingers, as long as you catch it, I am afraid you will be able to have a safe house immediately.
"Keep your brother's appearance in your heart, one day my brother really comes, even if I am no longer here at that time, you have to accompany your man and serve me well."
The daughters-in-law immediately said yes.
The old man looked at the old lady's yard in front of him, it was inconvenient to have a seizure here, let alone make noise, but he had made up his mind that after going back, he had to let his children and grandchildren take their daughters-in-law and kneel in front of him, and he would give a stern advice.
One by one, the incense in the temple is frequently supplied on weekdays, and they do not hesitate to pay any price for the first incense, thinking about the future of their children and grandchildren, thinking that they are free from illness and disaster, but how can it be useful to worship the real dragon in this world by worshiping the mud wax statue?
"Remember, it's still the same as in the morning, just work and don't talk, keep your mouths shut, don't talk about those right and wrong, whoever has gone wrong with me in the past few days, I will remove you from your name in the will!"
He knew how idle these daughters-in-law were on weekdays, and they could chatter non-stop, but don't really talk about what is going on at home, so that the old lady would think that she was coercing her into cooking and asking for retribution.
Some things can be given to you by superiors, but you cannot take the initiative to ask for them.
Hearing the will, the daughters-in-law nodded immediately, this time nodding much harder than before.
However, what the old man didn't expect was that as soon as they entered the yard, they saw the old lady walking out of the house, sitting on a stone bench in the yard, and pointing to the back room:
"Go, get some melon seed fruit plates and accompany me to talk about right and wrong."
The daughters-in-law first looked at each other, and then looked at the old man collectively.
The old man hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't go quickly, chat with the old lady to relieve boredom, don't you usually have a broken mouth, this is not useful."
The melon seed fruit plate was taken out, and seeing that the daughters-in-law couldn't let go, Liu Yumei said while knocking on the melon seeds:
"Let go, talk about some of the twists and turns at home, I love to listen, whoever says more will say it well, I will let the pony's will add weight to you."
When the old man heard this, he smiled first, and then quickly waved his hand and urged:
"Quick, take out your housekeeping skills and chew the root of your tongue for me."
inside the house.
Ah Li walked up to the second floor and came to the room where Liu Yumei usually stayed.
She opened the cabinet, took out an envelope from it, and went downstairs to her study.
In front of the desk, there is a blank drawing paper.
The girl sat down and opened the envelope, which contained a thick stack of photos, all tragic and bloody and terrifying.
Ah Li looked at them one by one, took out photos from time to time, and gestured at the corner of the scroll.
Of course, she was not afraid of the tragic scene above, after all, what she had witnessed since she was a child was an infinitely more terrifying picture than the one on this photo.
But she is serious about her own picture book frame creation.
She felt that the scenes in these photos were very suitable for painting on this painting, just filling in the large area of blank space.
However, it is not appropriate to simply follow the picture in the photo.
You have to cut out the people from the photos and let them reappear in the painting more harmoniously and neatly, so that the overall composition will look good.
When the girl was thinking about the layout of one photo at a time, the fog in her "dream" began to become thicker and thicker and recede more and more.
……
Shop basement.
As soon as he heard Brother Xiaoyuan say that he was going back to Nantong, Tan Wenbin couldn't help but laugh and said:
"Haha, my brother Liang knows the taste of marrow!"
After a pause, Tan Wenbin joked again:
"Do you still remember when we made a treaty and said that we would come once a few years? It is the Bai family lady who co-authored this treaty to protect."
Yin Meng glared at Tan Wenbin and said: "How can you be so sour?"
Tan Wenbin said indifferently: "I didn't say it to my face, what's wrong with the cricket behind my back."
Lin Shuyou, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, said: "I'll go back with Brother Xiaoyuan."
Tan Wenbin raised three fingers at Lin Shuyou and asked: "How many are this?"
Lin Shuyou: "Three."
Tan Wenbin: "Give you another chance."
Lin Shuyou: "Four!"
Tan Wenbin: "You fart, your eyes haven't recovered yet, you asked Brother Xiaoyuan to be a blind staff for you?"
Runsheng is still in a coma, and even if he wakes up, he will have to be paralyzed for a long time and can't get out of bed.
Yin Meng said: "Actually, I can accompany Brother Xiaoyuan now, but Brother Xiaoyuan asked me to stay and take care of your injuries, otherwise, I will talk to Brother Xiaoyuan again?"
When talking about this here before, Li Zhuiyuan bluntly said that this time he wanted to go home alone.
First, this wave has just passed, and the limit has been advanced twice in a row, unless he takes the initiative to catch the evil spirit again, no matter what, the next wave will not come over soon.
Moreover, there is a person under the peach tree in Nantong, which is relatively safe.
Tan Wenbin shook his head: "If you don't stay, Brother Xiaoyuan is not very worried about our injuries."
Lin Shuyou: "But Brother Xiaoyuan has no one around him, and it is not suitable."
Tan Wenbin: "It's really inappropriate, but who told us not to do it now......"
"Beep...... Beep beep...... Beep ......"
The pager rang.
Tan Wenbin looked at the pager and said with a smile: "Well, it's better to come early, it's better to come early, and the hands will be delivered to the door by themselves."
……
Xiong Shan lost a lot of weight, wearing the same clothes as before, and when the wind blew, he swayed a little.
Lihua gained a lot of weight, not only her face became rounder, but even her chest became more bulging than before.
Both of them were dressed plainly and squatted by the flower bed at the school gate.
Lihua turned sideways, borrowed her husband's body to block it, and breastfed the child.
The people who came in and out were all college students, and everyone looked away from looking here with great quality.
Xiong Shan took out a pipe from his pocket and began to stuff tobacco into it.
Lihua bumped into him lightly and reminded: "Be patient, don't have a smell on your body later."
Xiong Shan nodded and put away his pipe.
He is old.
This is the first feeling when Li Chaiyuan walked to the school gate and saw Xiong Shan.
When I first saw him, Xiong Shan was still full of recklessness, and there was a kind of arrogance of the second child.
This anger has actually been dispersed in the Peach Blossom Village incident, and now, it is completely impossible to find.
This means that he has lit the lamp for the second time.
Admitting defeat is also accepting fate.
Once people accept their fate, they will naturally become depressed.
Things that used to be more serious have now been looked away, and things that used to be angry have now learned to be indifferent.
A similar feeling can be seen in Uncle Qin by Li Chase.
When Uncle Qin walked the river back then, he shouldered the hope of the revival of the Qin family, and he must have been fierce and enterprising, and his momentum was strong.
Therefore, many river walkers cannot accept failure, they would rather die than let go of that breath.
This is especially true of the duel between the river walkers of the Dragon King family of the past dynasties, which has caused blood debts from generation to generation.
Moreover, looking at the mental state of Xiong Shan and his wife who were completely let go, thinking about it, the revenge against those three families should have been carried out very thoroughly.
The three families of Lao Tianmen, who lost the core members of the family, could not stop the reckless couple's revenge at all.
The couple contacted Tan Wenbin according to the agreement after taking revenge.
Li Chaiyuan walked out of the school gate, Xiong Shan and Lihua saw it, immediately got up to greet him, and was about to salute, but was stopped by Li Chaiyuan:
"Don't stick to these, I'll take you back to Nantong."
"Okay, okay." Xiong Shan nodded hurriedly.
Lihua was a little flattered, but she didn't expect that it was Li Chaiyuan who personally received and settled them.
The car Tan Wenbin called for himself was already waiting in front, it was a taxi.
The driver's name is Liu Changping, and he knows Tan Wenbin, and it is said that because Tan Wenbin got in his car, he met his little nurse partner.
The price of a contracted operation vehicle is naturally not low, but more money and less money are secondary, mainly because the driver must be down-to-earth and reliable.
Tan Wenbin, as the captain of the Dragon King, shouted and arranged these things, which was his duty.
The taxi driver can chat, and Xiong Shan is even more knowledgeable, and the two quickly chatted very lively.
Li Chaiyuan didn't interject much, most of the time he just looked at the scenery quietly, thinking about Baijia Town.
This time back to his hometown, not only because of the personal relationship between himself and Xue Liangliang, but also because he was worried that if something really happened to Baijiazhen, it might lead to the decay of the situation.
As a Nantong corpse Li, I have to go back and take a look.
Liu Changping: "This kid is so good, he doesn't cry or make trouble."
Lihua: "That's not right, my son is good when he is young."
It was as if he heard someone mention him, and the child let out a "giggle" laugh.
In the car, except for Li Chaiyuan, everyone else laughed.
It's hard for anyone to refuse a child who is so good at adapting to the situation and cooperating.
Li Chaiyuan also noticed that there was a sealing aura on the child's body, and Xiong Shan followed his advice and sealed the child's spiritual sense.
The car arrived at the boundary of Nantong and came to Shinan Town.
Li Chaiyuan raised his hand to signal Liu Changping and continued north to Shigang Town, where there are many shops.
Walking into the clothing store, Li Chaiyuan began to choose clothes, he chose to buy quickly, because he remembered the size of his grandfather's body, and he could put it directly on in his mind according to the style of clothes in the store, whether it fit or not, at a glance.
It's not the first time I've returned to my hometown from Jinling, Tan Wenbin came back alone with Zhou Yunyun last time, so there is no need to bring Jinling specialties anymore.
I chose two formal clothes for my grandfather and two more pairs of shoes.
Thanks to Yin Meng not being here, otherwise she would have been able to witness what was called real bargaining.
Li Chase didn't care about this money, but it didn't mean that he liked to be taken advantage of by the boss, and the boss still scolded him when he was looking back on himself in the store.
Mainly, the clothing market in this era is exaggerated, and the price tag is like a joke.
Inexperienced stunned young people only cut in half, and experienced people erase the last "0" first and then cut in half.
The store owner also knows that you want to bargain, so he deliberately writes the label price high, which not only raises his profit margin, but also satisfies the emotional value needs of customers to bargain.
However, according to the study of physiognomy, Li Chaiyuan can see the purchase price after a few conversations, and then directly say the purchase price and add a little hard money.
Because he said so accurately, the shopkeeper was stunned, embarrassed to perform "Oh, this price is too low, it can't catch up with me to get the price", just thinking that this child's family is also in the service trade business, and even wants to have a relationship.
Xiong Shan and Lihua followed the teenager to buy clothes throughout the whole process, and this scene had a huge impact on them.
The future Dragon King, buy clothes in person, and bargain?
If this is said, people in the rivers and lakes will never believe it.
Li Chaiyuan believed, and Li Lan would not believe it either.
In fact, he still rejects doing these things in his bones, but it is in the overcoming stage.
After experiencing the dream ghost incident, Li Chaiyuan felt that his condition had been further stabilized.
After buying clothes and shoes, Li Chaiyuan went to buy some tobacco and alcohol that his grandfather usually liked.
When Li Chaiyuan walked out of the department store door with his things, he stood on the steps, facing the sunlight outside, and couldn't help but feel a little dizzy in his mind.
He is still not suitable for this kind of thing, but he is going to do it.
Li Chaiyuan thought about whether to buy a set of clothes for Li Weihan and Cui Guiying, but the result of thinking was that he couldn't buy it.
Although it is a bit heartless to say this, the fact is that he can overcome the pain of buying things for his grandfather.
But when I bought something for my grandparents and handed them the gifts, their happy expressions came to mind, and I started to sweat.
If he acts the whole time, it really doesn't matter, the problem is that he tries not to act as much as possible now.
In fact, he can also try to overcome this pain.
It's just that in the eyes of the grandfather, all his money is given by him, and if he uses his money to buy things for others, even if the grandfather doesn't say it, he will feel uncomfortable.
However, since this layer is considered, it is not appropriate not to buy it.
Li Lan knows how to pay a fixed living expense every month and send gifts during the New Year's holidays, although her secretary must be responsible for arranging it.
Li Chaiyuan pursed his lips, then went back to his grandfather's house first, then asked his grandfather's permission, and then went to buy clothes for his grandparents.
If the order changes, the grandfather will not have any grudges in his heart, but will only feel that he is sensible and filial.
Anyway, things have to go through their own hands, and this pain must be experienced by themselves, and they cannot avoid it.
Sitting in the car, Li Chaiyuan lowered his head and stretched out his hand to knead his eyebrows.
He found that thinking about the gift-giving relationship of these relatives was more difficult than thinking about dealing with the waves of the river.
Liu Changping started the car and drove back to Shinan Town and entered Siyuan Village.
The road in the village has been widened, and the original stone road has now become a two-way cement road, and the road from the village road to the grandfather's house has also been rebuilt.
Xiong Shan and Lihua came here with an extremely excited and apprehensive pilgrimage.
Seeing that the car really drove into a house in the village, both of them showed astonishment in their eyes, and after the astonishment, they became even more solemn.
This is the real foundation, not hidden deeply, but calm and natural.
If it really is some kind of ancestral house secret realm, it will be inferior.
Li Zhuyuan got out of the car, a little strange, and couldn't hear the shout from the grandfather.
Before he came back, Tan Wenbin called Aunt Zhang's canteen, and the great-grandfather knew that when he came back today, he would definitely be waiting for him at home.
On the first floor, Xiao Yingying was sitting inside coloring the paper figure.
Since she came, Li Sanjiang's paper business has been extremely prosperous, because the paper figures here are more real and delicate.
Xiao Yingying put down her brush, turned her head, and looked over.
Her attention was immediately attracted by Xiong Shan and Lihua.
The couple recognized it at a glance, it was a dead end!
Even though he has been lit up twice and withdrawn from the world, he is still walking in the rivers and lakes in the past, and his instinctive reaction is still there.
Xiao Yingying also looked stunned, stood up, quickly retreated to the corner, then dodged, climbed upwards, and came to the upper corner.
Li Zhuyuan asked: "Where is my grandfather?"
Xiong Shan and Li Hua immediately restrained their breath and looked sarcastic on their faces.
Xiao Yingying also got down from the beam, returned to the previous bench and sat down, picked up the paintbrush, and replied while continuing to color the paper man:
"Drunk, asleep."
Li Chaiyuan went up to the second floor, Xiong Shan and Lihua stayed downstairs, and Liu Changping squatted on the dam and smoked.
Pushing open the bedroom door, Li Chaiyuan saw Li Sanjiang lying on the bed snoring loudly.
Although snoring while sleeping is not a good thing, listening to this breathy snoring sound, the grandfather's body is still very strong.
Walked to the bed and helped the grandfather cover the quilt.
The grandfather opened his drunken hazy eyes and smiled at Li Zhuiyuan: "Xiaoyuanhou~"
Then, he tilted his head and fell asleep again, probably thinking that he was drunk and dreaming.
Li Chaiyuan walked out of his grandfather's bedroom and came to the next door, which was his bedroom.
The door was open, and Li Chaiyuan saw Xue Liangliang sitting on a chair, holding liquor in his left hand and a wine glass in his right hand, still pouring himself and drinking here.
"Xiaoyuan, you are finally back, Xiaoyuan!"
Xue Liangliang was obviously drunk, and when he saw Li Chaiyuan coming back, he put down the wine bottle and wine glass, stood up, and then felt that the world was spinning and he couldn't stand steadily.
Xue Liangliang staggered to the edge of the bed, fell on the bed with a "pop", and fell asleep directly on his stomach.
There was no way, Li Chaiyuan could only help him cover the quilt as well.
After answering Xue Liangliang's call for help, Li Chaiyuan promised him that he would come back and asked him to wait for him at his grandfather's house first.
Who would have thought that when the grandfather saw Xue Liangliang coming, he would have a drink with him at noon.
The more you drink, the more you drink, the more you drink, and Xue Liangliang has just been hurt by love, so the two of them drank so high.
Okay, let's do it for now.
Li Chaiyuan went downstairs, pointed to the child in Lihua's arms, and pointed to Xiao Yingying.
"Leave the child to her."
Lihua swallowed her saliva, what, give the child to die?
If you let it go, who dares to say such a thing in front of you, then you will definitely think that this person is crazy, and then twist his head by the way!
But since it was Li Chaiyuan who spoke, Lihua had to comply.
Seeing that his wife was moving slowly, Xiong Shan pushed her and urged: "Hurry up, what are you doing, I'm going to get down to business."
He saw more clearly.
Silly daughter-in-law, are you still afraid that someone will hit your son's idea? Isn't this desirable!
Lihua came to understand and put the child on the stool next to Xiao Yingying.
Xiao Yingying didn't even look at it, and continued to focus on coloring the paper figure seriously.
Li Chaiyuan immediately motioned for Liu Changping to drive, carrying himself and Xiong Shan and his wife to the bearded man's house.
The four of them had lunch on the road, and they didn't have time to eat, so they weren't hungry.
In addition, if you want to place Xiong Shan and his wife here with the grandfather, the grandfather will not have any problems here, he will only be happy that he has two more down-to-earth and capable mules.
But this land temple cannot be left unworshipped.
The two of them had just withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, and it would take time for their habits and instincts to fade away.
After the four of them left in the car, Xiao Yingying put down the paintbrush in her hand.
She turned her head to look at the child beside her.
The child was sucking his finger and grinning at her.
Xiao Yingying stretched out her hand to pick up the child, and then slowly shook it in her arms.
The child smiled even more happily, and then habitually reached out to grab Xiao Yingying's chest, this was to eat grandma.
Xiao Yingying could only grab the child's hand over and over again and put it back, but the child persevered, and Xiao Yingying could only keep dealing with him.
In the end, Xiao Yingying was angry, her eyes widened, her normally white face turned blue in an instant, her hair began to grow longer, and wet water vapor filled out.
The child was stunned for a moment, and then laughed even louder, thinking that he was playing with him.
Xiao Yingying's body fell, her face and hair all recovered, she looked at him helplessly, and then continued to shake.
Liu Changping stayed next to the car and smoked, while Li Chaiyuan led Xiong Shan and his wife to the bearded man's dam to face the peach forest.
Li Chaiyuan: "There is a senior buried here."
Xiong Shan and his wife immediately began to salute, but they innocently asked whether the buried senior was dead or alive.
Because if they were dead, there was no need to bring them here on purpose.
There was silence in the peach grove.
Li Zhuyuan reminded: "After you live here, take some time to make a sacrifice here, and then during the New Year's holidays or when you have nothing to do, you can also come to burn paper and worship.
Because it is there, it can protect the safety of the house."
Xiong Shan and Lihua: "I will remember."
Although he didn't say it directly, he was able to make the Dragon King family say "It's not strange to be polite to many people", which shows that the weight buried below will never be lower than that general.
Perhaps, the so-called seniors buried here are not people at all, but a terrifying beast guarding the house!
Li Chaiyuan: "Let's go, go to the river."
Liu Changping drove and followed the young man's guidance to the riverside road.
After arriving at the destination, Li Chaiyuan motioned for Liu Changping to drive the car farther away, Liu Changping was very curious, but still did it.
Li Zhuiyuan took Xiong Shan and Lihua to the river, and it was close to dusk, and the river began to crash against the shore in waves, splashing white foam one by one.
Once, it was here that Li Chaiyuan witnessed Uncle Qin take off his clothes and jump into the river.
At that time, I could only stay on the shore and guard my clothes.
Now, revisiting the old place, I really feel that things are wrong.
I remember that at the beginning, I also set up a small offering table at home with Brother Liangliang, just to settle the cause and effect with a certain lady of the Bai family, and begged her not to entangle her.
But this time, there was no offering table, no candles were lit, and no offerings were made.
Li Chaiyuan took out a piece of yellow paper in front of him, and the yellow paper spontaneously ignited.
The young man said in a deep voice:
"Bai family, come out and see me immediately!"
After saying this, he threw out the yellow paper, which floated into the river and did not go out, but quickly sank to the bottom, and even on the shore, he could see the bright light that continued to diverge and fall.
After a while, bubbles gushed out from the river, and then continued to rise, standing up like a fountain, and gradually it could be seen that there seemed to be a woman wearing a red wedding dress and a phoenix crown on her head.
"I was entrusted by someone to come to inquire about something, Xue Liangliang, why can't you come down?"
"Just because of the slave family, I am pregnant."
