I winked at Da Jinya and the fat man, and then took Li Chunlai to a dumpling restaurant on the next street. This mutton dumpling restaurant is famous nearby. The owner and his wife are both loyal businessmen.
The dumplings are full of fillings and unique in flavor. Not only are they affordable, but the environment is also very clean.
It was almost noon, and it was almost time to eat. There were more and more people eating. I often come here to eat, and I am very familiar with the owner and his wife. After saying hello, the lady boss of the dumpling restaurant took us into the kitchen.
They set up a table for us in the warehouse, put chairs and dishes, and went out to do business.
This place is a private room where I conduct business. There is nothing else in the warehouse except bags of flour. Every time I finish my meal, I don’t let the shopkeeper give me change. It’s considered as the private room fee.
I said to Li Chun: Brother Chunlai, do you think this place is quiet enough? It’s time to show me that little flower shoe.
Li Chunlai had long been distracted by the smell of dumplings coming in from the outside. She turned a deaf ear to my words and couldn't wait to eat.
Seeing this, I had no choice but to smile bitterly. I pushed his arm and said, "Don't worry, the boss lady will bring it in for us when it's cooked. If you can sell this shoe for a good price, you'll eat the whole meatball every day."
Lamb dumplings are no problem either.
Li Chunlai came to his senses after being pushed by me. After listening to my words, he shook his head repeatedly: No, no, after I change the money, I have to marry an aunt and have a baby.
I smiled and said: You haven’t married a wife yet, and I haven’t either. Why worry about marrying a wife? When you get rich, you can marry Mizhi’s mother-in-law. Aren’t you people saying that Mizhi’s mother-in-law is Suide?
Well, tell me what’s good about Mizhi’s mother-in-law
Li Chunlai was no longer as restrained towards me as before. When I asked about it, he replied: Mizhi's mother-in-law is just like the red window grilles. If she can marry Mizhi's mother-in-law, she will be everything.
Toler.
While he was talking, the landlady brought in the steaming dumplings and two bottles of beer. Li Chunlai didn't care to talk anymore and put the dumplings into his mouth one by one at a reasonable price.
When I saw the way he was acting, the two kilograms of dumplings were not enough, so I quickly asked the landlady to cook another two kilograms. Then I poured some vinegar into the small plate in front of Li Chunlai and said to him: Brother Chunlai, this place is nearby.
We don’t have the sour soup dumplings that you people like to eat, so you can eat some of this together, this one has vinegar, and drink some beer.
Li Chunlai stuffed several dumplings into his mouth and just immersed himself in eating and drinking. He stopped talking. I waited until he had almost eaten before talking to him about the embroidered shoe.
Li Chunlai had already trusted me very much at this time, and took out the embroidered shoe from the worn leather bag to show me.
During this period of time, I have been exposed to antique antiques a lot, and I am already considered a semi-connoisseur. I took the embroidered shoe in my hand and looked at it. The front of the shoe was less than a handful, and the front end was as sharp as a bamboo shoot. It had a green satin base, and the top
Peony flowers are embroidered with blue, gold and red silk threads, and the soles are made of sandalwood. There is a sandwich in the middle, which can hold spices.
Judging from the appearance and embroidery patterns, they are from the Ming Dynasty. Not many women in Shaanxi have their small feet bound, and if they do, they are mostly from wealthy families, so the craftsmanship of these shoes is quite particular.
If the big gold tooth were here, he could smell the shoes with his nose and know the origin of the shoes. But I don't have such a clever method, so I can't be sure. Judging from the quality and workmanship, it doesn't seem to be a fake. This three-inch
Jinlian's embroidered fragrant-soled shoes are popular items and highly collectible.
I asked Li Chunlai where these shoes came from, and Li Chunlai didn't hide anything and told me exactly:
Their place has experienced nine droughts in ten years, and this year there is a severe drought. There is not a single rain star in the sky. The villagers have no choice but to secretly do some tricks.
Driving drought bone piles is also known as driving drought bones among the people. Before liberation, it was used by many people in the Central Plains. This custom is also found in remote areas of Henan, Shandong, and Shaanxi provinces.
Li Chun came to his village and used all kinds of tricks to pray for rain. There was a blind man in the village who knew how to tell fortunes. The blind man said that this was caused by the drought demon, and that it would rain only if the drought demon was struck.
Everyone asked him where there was a drought demon. The blind man calculated it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. At this time, a sheep herder said that when he was herding sheep, he saw a green child in the long-abandoned cemetery at the east end of the village.
I entered an unowned coffin. I don’t know who the coffin belonged to. No one in the village has buried anyone in that cemetery for a long time. Moreover, for some reason, this broken coffin has not been buried yet.
When the blind man who knew fortune telling heard this, he insisted that the drought demon was hiding in this coffin. After the villagers discussed it, they were ready to open the coffin to see if there was any drought demon.
The village chief disagreed and said that the blind man was talking nonsense. The blind man also lost his temper and made a bet with the village chief. If the drought demon was not found in the ownerless coffin, the blind man's son would be given to the village chief in the future.
Sheep that have been kept at home for a year.
As a result, the villagers all arrived at the deserted grave to the east. No one could tell where the coffin came from, and few people came to this cemetery. Since it was nameless and ownerless, it saved a lot of trouble, everyone.
Just go ahead and lift the lid of the coffin.
As soon as the coffin lid was opened, there was only a fishy smell, like the smell produced by a large pile of smelly fish after being exposed to the sun. It was as unpleasant as possible.
A few bold ones and those who were not afraid of death pinched their noses and moved forward. They were shocked when they looked inside. There was a female corpse lying in the coffin. The clothes and accessories on her body were very well preserved, and they were all like new ones.
The corpse is the same, but looking at the clothes, it is definitely not from modern times. This is an ancient corpse.
Although the clothes were as good as new, the body had dried up and its muscles and skin were like dead tree bark.
Just above the female corpse, squatting was a little monster covered with green fur. It was naked and only about seven inches long. Moreover, the little green-haired monkey was still alive and curled up into a ball to sleep.
After listening to what the villagers said, the blind man insisted that this little green-haired monster was the Drought Demon. He must kill it immediately and then whip it with a whip, and it must be fast, otherwise it will disappear at night.
It's hard to find.
Some brave villagers caught the green-haired little monster outside the coffin, beat it to death with a hammer, and then whipped it with a whip. The strange thing was that the monster didn't bleed.
A lot of black gas came out, and finally it was beaten to pieces. No more black gas came out, and then it was burned to ashes with a fire.
It was already dusk, and the villagers asked the blind man what to do with the female body in the coffin. The blind man said that if he kept it, it would cause disaster sooner or later, so it would be better to let others burn it as soon as possible. No one should take the contents inside.
At first, everyone was a little hesitant. After all, the corpse in the coffin was not from modern times, and there were many gold and silver ornaments. It would be a pity to burn it.
While the villagers were still hesitating, the dark clouds in the sky were getting thicker, and there was a faint sound of thunder. It seemed that it would rain heavily soon. Everyone cheered and their words to the blind man changed from doubtful to believing in them.
.
Since the blind man said that the coffin must be burned, it must be burned. In the end, the village chief decided to let Li Chunlai stay and light a fire to burn the coffin. Li Chunlai was a coward. He usually did whatever the village chief asked him to do. Although he was afraid at this time, he had no choice but to do it.
Leave the scalp intact.
In order to burn the coffin before it rained, he hurriedly brought a few bundles of dry firewood, piled them randomly under the coffin, lit a fire, and burned it.
Li Chunlai squatted aside and stared. He was a poor bachelor. He was almost forty and still had no money to marry his mother-in-law. At this time, he was thinking about the gold and silver in the coffin and couldn't help but feel a little moved. Unfortunately, he didn't dare to take it just now. Now the fire has already
It's burned, and I can't get it even if I want to. I don't know if it's worth it if it's burnt.
Li Chunlai was feeling extremely sorry when suddenly a white light flashed, three or four thunder exploded in the sky, and heavy rain poured down, immediately extinguishing the half-burned flames.
