Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

There must be a reason why those two little brats run around on the street with a bunch of copper coins in their pockets every day and haven't been stolen, robbed or abducted.

First of all, ignoring some things, the customs of the people here are still very simple.

Second, they have to be lucky.

Again, there should be an adult behind them to keep an eye on those sneaky hooligans.

Yu Meng was reluctant to let them run around, but these two children were stubborn and not obedient at all.

Instead of letting them think of other ways to make trouble, it is better to let nature take its course. They haven't done anything wrong anyway. It's just that Waiya has been spending a lot of money recently.

Just spend it. Most of it was her own money, and she could exchange it for quite a bit of food. If she relied on the little money he made from selling firewood, she would probably earn less than she does now.

Yu Meng is very open-minded. The reason why the Yu family is not rich is because they are too open-minded and unwilling to compromise themselves.

He was carrying a load of hidden firewood and following the two children, walking quickly and more closely than usual.

He knew the two children had already sold all their things, so what were they going to town for? Shopping?

The children were running happily without any worries. Yu Meng followed behind them with some concern, wanting to see what they were going to do.

It wasn't until he saw them running into the liquor store that Yu Meng's heart finally settled down.

This is like an old man hanging himself and seeking death.

Wouldn't it be nice to just have some fun on the road? Why do you have to do it in front of acquaintances? What if the child is sent back to the Liu family? What will happen to him?

Yu Meng could only hope that they were just going in to eat something and wouldn't be recognized, but when he thought about how they followed Pei Lao Da's wife...

"Oh..." Yu Meng squatted on the street and sighed.

Little Pei has already walked to the side of the eldest daughter Pei.

Pei Da Nu took a second look before recognizing her. She said in surprise, "Little sister?! It's really you. You've grown taller and your hair has grown longer. I almost didn't recognize you. Mother said she saw you following her, but I didn't believe it.

By the way, why are you here? Who is this? Are your parents here with you? "

She asked a long series of questions.

Pei Xiaohai shook his head: "Wai Ya and I came here together. I have something to tell you."

Pei Da Nu: ...

Waiya should be this little girl, right?

Pei Da Nu was overwhelmed: "How did you get here?"

"I came here on my legs."

I came here on my own and have something to say to her. Could it be that she has been wronged?

Pei's heart sank. In the past, she could have discussed this with her parents, but now the family was in such a mess that she really couldn't do anything...

Some familiar drinkers have already come here...

"This is not the place to talk. Follow me."

Pei Da Nu led them into the kitchen and into the backyard through a small door.

Qian Youji and Qian Youqing were staring at the mules pulling the cart. The two short and stocky little guys were both chubby and wore thick clothes, so it was difficult for them to move. If they were not careful, they would roll all over the ground.

When they saw Pei Da'nu, they called out for their mother and rushed over. Qian Youqing ran only two steps before he fell headfirst to the ground, knocking down his brother as well. The two little guys supported themselves on the ground with their hands and tried to stand up awkwardly.

Pei Danv and Xiaohong quickly picked them up, patted the dirt off their clothes, and comforted them.

They didn't cry, but their eyes rolled around, looking at Waiya and Pei Xiaohai with curiosity.

But they no longer remembered who Pei Xiaohai was. They glanced at Qian Youji and then looked away, pointing at the mule and saying, "Mom, Youji, ride the big horse."

Qian Youqing's gaze lingered a little longer, but he quickly retracted his gaze, clapping his hands in agreement with his brother: "Mom, Qing can ride a big horse too!"

It's vague, but still clear.

Pei Da Nv pressed down their hands that were reaching for the mule, handed them to Xiao Hong and the wet nurse, and said coaxingly, "Tell them to go back to the house and ride their rocking horses. Stay away from the mule and don't get kicked."

The two children were not very happy and kept muttering "no, no". They were probably not very satisfied with the arrangement, but they were still taken away.

Waiya quietly asked Pei Xiaohai: "What is a rocking horse?"

Pei Xiaohai was also confused: "I don't know."

It sounds like some kind of toy.

Normally, Pei Da Nv would let Pei Xiao Xiao play with the two children and tease them to call her aunt, but this time she said nothing, with a heavy heart, and led them into an empty room very seriously.

"Okay, little sister, there's no one else here, just talk to me if you have anything to say."

Pei Xiaohai glanced at Waiya and said, "Wait for me outside for a while."

"Okay!" Waiya agreed readily.

Pei Xiaohai: "Don't eavesdrop."

"Oh." Waiya went out with a gloomy face.

As soon as she left, Little Pei couldn't wait to tell Big Daughter Pei, "There's a ghost around Yu Li."

"Ah?!" This was completely different from what Pei Da Nv had thought. What surprised her even more was that Pei Xiaoli obviously knew what was going on and might even know the ghost because she explained it very clearly.

"That ghost wanted to pawn Yu Li's wife, but he froze to death after paying the money, and the deed was damaged. His wife and son went to ask for the money, but the Yu family refused and even beat them. He must be angry, so he's pestering her. I don't know if he'll hurt anyone else. You'd better talk to Aunt Pei and the others. Maybe if the Yu family returns the money, everything will be fine."

Pei Da Nv had seen children being able to see ghosts before, but she had always felt that it was not real and had ignored it intentionally or unintentionally. Now that she heard her sister talk about it again, she finally realized and began to face up to her sister's unusualness.

Yu Lao Mo's death was mysterious, and she had heard a lot of rumors...

"How do you know so much?"

Pei Xiaohai was a good person and told everything: "The ghost is Mu Shuanglin from Puluo Village. When he rented his wife out, his family didn't know, so he asked me to tell his wife and son."

"So that's how it is... Then why did you go when he asked you to?"

"He spent ten taels of silver, all the money in his family. It would be a shame not to go. His wife and son are still living in a shack. They don't even have money to buy a coffin or cotton clothes. They have to leave clothes for the dead. It's really pitiful."

Pei Xiaohai felt that they definitely needed the money, and besides, Mu Shuanglin's appearance at the time made it difficult to refuse him.

It sounds miserable, but...

"Little sister, if any ghosts come looking for you in the future, you must ignore them, okay? Humans and ghosts are on different paths, and this is not something you can control. It might even get you into trouble."

Pei Da Nu is not a person without sympathy, but there are differences between close and distant relatives. She cannot get herself into trouble just to help others.

"Don't tell anyone about this. If the Yu family hears about it, they will definitely blame you for being nosy."

It's possible that Yu Lao Mo's death would be blamed on her.

Little Pei listened, seemingly understanding: "Then what about Mu Shuanglin who is still with Li?"

Pei Da Nu bit her lip.

This matter is really difficult to handle. Her father was deceived by the Yu family and brought the girl back home. Now he is in high spirits. He has already spent so much money on Yu Li and is hoping that she will give birth to a son. It is obviously impossible to ask him to send the girl back.

Mother is speechless...

"Wait a minute. There are a lot of people here these days, and the merchants are very generous. Some dishes are taken off the table before they are even touched. I will ask mother to bring them back for your fourth sister and the others. They will be here soon, judging by the time.

Isn't that ghost following Yu Li? Later, you secretly tell the ghost that I have paid the money and will definitely send it to his wife and children, asking him to reincarnate as soon as possible and stop bothering him. Be polite and don't make him angry, okay?

Forget it, don't tell me, I'll tell you, bring him to this room and wait for me, I'll lead my mother away and come over."

Pei Xiaohai: "Of course, I can, but Mu Shuanglin doesn't go near the liquor store. I have to go find him on the street."

"Why?" Pei Da Nu was puzzled.

But Pei Xiaohai didn't know either: "Anyway, the first two times I saw him, he was waiting far away on the road. Maybe he was tired."

This sounds unreliable.

Pei Dayu thought to herself: Maybe... there is something here that it is afraid of?

For example...those guests?

"Little sister, do you want to go play with Youji and Youqing for a while?"

"go."

They hadn't seen each other for a long time. Pei Xiaohai took Waiya with him, but they really didn't remember her. They were riding on two wooden horses, which they called rocking horses, rocking back and forth.

They wanted the mule outside more than the child.

Qian Youqing got tired of playing, so he climbed down from the top and went to the little boy Pei who was squatting at the door. He pointed at the mule and said, "Look, a big horse."

Pei Xiaohai ignored him and said to himself, "Qing wants to ride."

As he spoke, his finger went into his mouth and he sucked it vigorously, looking stupid. When Pei Xiaohai still ignored him, he went to find Xiaohong and the wet nurse.

I still want to ride horses.

That was a mule, not a horse at all, and he was not Cheng Tianbao who only wanted to play with Pei Xiaohai, but Qian Youqing who had many people around him.

Little Pei looked back at the room and saw Waiya sneaking up to the rocking horse, trying to put his big self on the small horse.

She fell down and the copper coins flew out of her arms. Qian Youji's eyes lit up and he quickly rushed over to pick them up, using all four limbs.

Waiya: My money!

"Master, the ground is dirty!"

Before Waiya could beat him, Qian Youji was picked up by the wet nurse, but the copper coin was still tightly held in his hand.

The nurse didn't dare to pry his hand away, so she took out a few copper coins from her sleeve and said, "Little girl, this is for you."

Waiya took it and stopped playing with the rocking horse. She quickly left the room and whispered in Pei's ear with great joy, "She gave too much."

It doesn’t matter if it’s a lot. They obviously don’t care, and Waiya obviously won’t return it.

This was a happy occasion for everyone, Qian Youji was also happy, he ordered the wet nurse to hold him and go hide the money.

He said, "Go to the treasure cave."

Wet nurse: "Okay, let's go to our young master's treasure cave."

Pei Xiaohai held his chin with his hand and frowned.

What is that?

The holes they saw most often were holes in the walls, rat holes in corners, and holes in clothes.

Treasure Cave...

cut!

None of them wanted to bother with these two young masters.
