You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?
Chapter 208 How did you come back? So fast!
The two people in the room began to twitch and spit out white foam, and their bodies gradually became stiff.
Su Chen lowered his eyes, took a deep breath of the cold morning air, and jumped off the roof.
He entered the house, picked up the girl and the old man, and carried them into the mountains.
Through the newly erected tombstone beside the grave, Su Chen saw the old man slowly emerging with a confused look on his face.
He smiled and turned away.
Before this, he not only calculated the miserable state of the girl after the old man passed away, but also calculated that after they committed suicide together, the idle men in the village would insult the corpse.
In order to possess the body, they even dumped the old man's body in the wilderness. The incident was not discovered until half a month later when the neighbors noticed that they had not left the house.
Master Zhang is right.
When it rains, it pours.
Unfortunate people often reach a dead end, but still cannot avoid misfortune.
Su Chen sighed and his figure gradually disappeared.
Liu Chunhua watched the flames in the stove leap up and down, and glanced disdainfully at Old Man Su, who was pressing his forehead: "Do you still dare to drink?"
Old Man Su said nothing. He scooped up some hot water and wiped his face. After he recovered, he asked, "Has Ah Chen not come back yet?"
Liu Chunhua sighed, "The kid came home last night and said he had something to do, but I don't know what it was. It's cold at night, and he refused to put on clothes when I asked him to. What if he catches a cold?"
Old Man Su paused and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Ah Chen knows what's going on."
After brushing his teeth, he picked up the lobster and said, "Oh, you seem a little reluctant to move."
"That's why I told you to send it over quickly and have them cook it right away. You can't keep this thing for too long, otherwise the meat will fall apart."
"I'll go over now."
Not long after Old Man Su left, Su Chen came back. Liu Chunhua stopped lighting the fire and smiled as she scooped hot water and served him egg custard.
"Achen, let's not go to the city today, okay?"
"You haven't slept all night, go inside and catch up."
After washing up, Su Chen ate the egg custard and smiled: "Mom, I don't need to sleep more. Besides, maybe no one will come to the stall for a whole day, so I can take a nap."
After finishing the egg custard in big mouthfuls, Su Chen went into the house to check on the little ones.
Little Ayun Yueyue and the others were still sleeping soundly.
Honghong woke up a little, turned her head with sleepy eyes and saw him, pouting her little mouth and stretching out her little hand: "Dad~"
Su Chen touched her head.
"Be good, let's sleep a little longer if you're tired. It's cold when you get up early."
He tucked in the quilt, watched Honghong close her eyes again, and walked out of the room with a smile.
Liu Chunhua obviously didn't agree with what he said: "Achen, please don't spoil Honghong too much. She is the eldest, how can she be lazy?"
"When I was a kid, I used to get up around five o'clock..."
"Mom, you couldn't even eat enough back then, did you?"
"Isn't it? You're lucky enough not to starve to death. You still want to eat your fill..."
As soon as Liu Chunhua mentioned the past, she immediately started complaining.
Su Chen was not impatient. He scooped some sweet potato porridge and listened patiently while drinking it.
Old Man Su came back in the cold wind and was disgusted when he heard it: "Why are you talking about all this nonsense so early in the morning? If you have time, you should go to the Cai family."
Liu Chunhua was puzzled: "What happened again? Is Ah Jun back?"
"No, it's the Lei family who's here. I saw a room full of people."
Liu Chunhua snorted softly, "A Xiu got pregnant and was beaten into a miscarriage. She almost lost her life. It would be strange if the Lei family didn't come. What should I do there? To watch the fun? No way!"
"If I really speak up for the Cai family, would I feel guilty?"
Having said that, when the aunt next door came to look for her, Liu Chunhua hesitated for a moment, but still followed her.
Su Chen was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile.
Needless to say, they must have been peacemakers in the past.
Divorce is not popular these days.
A Xiu almost died from domestic violence and miscarriage. Her family members would definitely come to support her, and it was expected that so many people would come.
But most likely it was not to take A Xiu away, but to get an explanation from here and promise to treat A Xiu well in the future.
Even though the Cai family was in the wrong, the Lei family was from another village after all. How could they easily agree to this? Wouldn't that make the people of Niuwei Village look like cowards?
There will inevitably be some tug-of-war.
Old Man Su picked up his hookah again, took a few puffs, and then said to Su Chen, "You didn't know you came home late yesterday. Ah Jun is really a piece of shit. What did you say when he went down the mountain to the town to borrow money from his cousin at night?"
"They said Ah Xiu fell and had a miscarriage and needed to be sent to the city for treatment. I borrowed five hundred! Five hundred!"
"He went south to work for half a year earlier, and they thought he'd bring back a thousand yuan. It would have been fine if he didn't get a penny, but I heard he even owed money. This time he took another five hundred yuan, and his mother is crying her heart out."
After a pause, Old Man Su managed to utter, "Even more of a bastard than you were before!"
Su Chen: "..."
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Dad, tell Uncle Liang not to send anyone to look for him. If he can't find him, it will be a waste of effort."
Old Man Su was stunned: "Is it because he couldn't find it before the New Year or..."
"At least ten years."
"……what?"
Old Man Su stopped puffing on his water pipe and hesitated for a long time. He stood up and wrapped his coat tightly around him. "I, I'm going to go talk to your Uncle Liang."
As he stepped out of the door, Su Chen heard him muttering, "A Xiu doesn't even have children. It's enough to delay for ten years. Hurry up and divorce her and let her remarry..."
After Su Chen finished his porridge, he gently closed the door, picked up the cloth bag and went to the city.
"Good morning, Uncle Yu."
Old Yu was stunned for a moment and waved his hand: "Good morning."
When they arrived at the hardware store, Su Chen saw that the door was not open yet, so he went around to the back door and moved out the tables and chairs.
Before I could put it down firmly, Wang Haitao arrived.
Su Chen: “!!!”
Fortunately, this guy was holding yellow paper and a collection of talismans, and he spread them out and started painting.
Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief and asked cautiously, "Have you... eaten?"
"have eaten."
That’s fine, let’s paint until noon.
Better ignore me.
Su Chen sat down leisurely and took out the bowl.
After drawing a few talismans to calm himself down, just as he was about to start thinking about how to add a stable channel to the anchor point, Zhang Qian came hurriedly.
"Friend Su, I have something I would like to ask you for help."
Su Chen: “???”
"Master Zhang, isn't this... a formal apprenticeship?"
After all, in his opinion, Dong Rongjin's kowtow three times and then becoming his disciple was a bit too rough.
"No," Zhang Qian sighed, "I came to Cuicheng and I'm unfamiliar with the place. A familiar boss sent two people to protect me."
Su Chen nodded: "Well, what's wrong?"
"The boss had some problems. You know I'm from southern Zhejiang, and it takes seven or eight hours to get back by car. Distant water can't quench a nearby fire, so I thought..."
Su Chen stood up and said, "Master Zhang, let's go to the store."
Zhang Qian uttered two "eh" sounds and hurriedly followed him in.
Su Chen didn't even know Cuicheng very well, let alone southern Zhejiang. The first time he left the Ghost Road, he went directly to northern Zhejiang. Fortunately, Zhang Qian was quite familiar with that area. After three or four attempts, he finally arrived at the destination.
"Fellow Daoist Su, thank you so much."
At the gate of the villa, Zhang Qian expressed his gratitude again and again.
Su Chen looked around.
The weather in southern Zhejiang is much colder than in Cuicheng. It actually snowed here. There was a thin layer of snow on the ground, and the surroundings were covered in silver.
Quite beautiful.
Just as he was about to leave, someone hurried out: "Master Zhang?! How did you get back? So quickly! Who is this..."
Su Chen: "..."
It seems that it is not easy to walk.
Sure enough, the next moment, his right hand was warmly grasped: "Are you Master Zhang's apprentice? Come on, it's cold outside, let's go in quickly."
Su Chen looked at Zhang Qian, who shrugged with a helpless smile.
Instead, that person told Zhang Qian about his daughter.
"We've tied Weiwei's hands and feet up, stuffed her mouth with cloth, and bandaged her wounds, but her eyes are still terrifying, as if she wants to swallow her hands. Master Zhang, what on earth is wrong with Weiwei?"
