Chapter 68 The old jealousy is overturned (second update)
next day
Early in the morning, it started to rain outside, not hard, just a gentle drizzle.
Because of the rain, the fortune-telling shop's business was not very good today, and not a single customer came yet.
On the second floor, Shu Yao was bored and played Landlords with Tao Da Tou and the half-blind man.
After playing more than ten games, Shu Yao relied on her super luck to completely crush the two of them.
The gluttonous man and the half-blind man lost in the end, with small white notes on their faces and bodies.
Footsteps came from the door, and the half-blind man looked towards the door through the second-floor window.
Pan Cui, who had just entered the door, was startled by his face covered with white notes. She patted her chest and cursed angrily: "Yue Zhenmin, what the hell are you doing? Are you pretending to be a ghost?"
The half-blind man tore off the small note on his face, rushed downstairs, approached her, and took the big basket she was carrying: "Cui Cui, why are you here so early in the morning? Do you miss me?"
Pan Cui spat at him: "Bah! You're so shameless. Jiaheng was discharged from the hospital today. I brought him here to express my gratitude to Master Shu."
Only then did the half-blind man notice Zhou Jiaheng standing behind Pan Cui: "Jiaheng is here too, come on, come on, sit inside. There is water and food here. See if there is anything you like. If not, I will go to the canteen to buy it."
"
Zhou Jiaheng knew that the half-blind man was his mother's ex-husband. His mother had been alone for most of her life. His biological father was a scumbag. In comparison, the half-blind man was barely reliable.
When something happened to him before, it was fortunate that the half-blind man was there.
Regarding the half-blind man's overt and covert overtures to Pan Cui, Zhou Jiaheng turned a blind eye and accepted him.
"Uncle Yue, don't bother me. I came here after breakfast and I'm not hungry yet."
Pan Cui also said: "Okay, we are not here to be guests. I made some food. Didn't you say that Master likes delicious food? Where is Master at the moment? I don't know if Master sees the food I made.
Don’t you like it?”
"I like it." Shu Yao walked down from the second floor. She had a good nose and smelled a scent early in the morning.
Also coming down was Taotiou. His nose was sharper and he could already smell the meat cakes in the basket.
Pan Cui saw her and beamed with joy: "Master, if you like it, it's fine. This is the meatloaf with pickled cabbage that I made myself. I've been running the stall for decades and I'm pretty good at it. If you like it, I'll make it every day in the future."
Fresh ones delivered.”
With that said, she grabbed her son again and said, "Jiaheng, the master is your savior. Why don't you thank the master quickly?"
Zhou Jiaheng originally thought that his savior would be an elderly Taoist priest with a celestial spirit, but he did not expect that he would be such a young and beautiful girl who looked about the same age as him.
His face turned slightly red and he lowered his head: "Master, thank you for your life-saving grace..."
Seeing that he was dull, Pan Cui said to him: "You usually talk more than anyone else. Why are you acting like a mute now? Why can't you just say thank you?"
Shu Yao didn't take it to heart. It was normal for human children to be shy.
"Aunt Pan, your meatloaf with pickles and vegetables tastes really good. I will accept this thank you gift. He is just a child, so don't talk about him." Shu Yao took a pancake in her hand and bit it.
She took a bite, it was fragrant and crispy, which made her very satisfied.
"Then I'll come often to give them to you in the future." Zhou Jiaheng blushed and glanced at Shu Yao secretly.
As soon as Xuan Li walked in, he saw a little kid with no hair on his face, showing his courtesy to Shu Yao.
"It's quite lively. Didn't I come just by chance?" Xuan Li's face darkened.
Shu Yao looked at him with a strange expression. It was no coincidence that he came to visit at a specific time.
"Who is this?" When Zhou Jiaheng saw Xuan Li, who surpassed him in appearance and temperament, his tone was slightly disappointed. His young heart that had just sprouted was soaked by the sudden heavy rain of Xuan Li.
.
"He is just an ordinary Taoist priest." Shu Yao said casually, but her tone was unknowingly intimate.
The 'ordinary' Taoist priest Xuan Li came over, walked up to her, touched her lips with his finger: "Why are you still so greedy?"
Shu Yao glared at him: "I'm just a glutton, and I didn't eat your food."
Xuan Li seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Don't move, there is a residue on the side of your mouth."
Shu Yao didn't move, she felt a little guilty, and she didn't seem to have eaten at all.
In the past, Daozu was responsible for most of Shu Yao's living expenses. She was responsible for picking up her younger brother, and Daozu was responsible for teaching and raising him.
When she thought that he had not fully recovered his memory, Shu Yao raised her chest and raised her head. She felt guilty, but she didn't feel guilty.
The intimacy between the two was natural, and Zhou Jiaheng's spring heart was uprooted under the heavy rain.
From the corner of Xuan Li's eye, he saw that the child opposite had stopped and his lips curled up silently.
"Who among you is a capable master?" A slightly sharp female voice sounded.
Everyone looked out the door. Pan Cui recognized the person and stepped forward: "Suju, why are you here?"
Qin Suju pushed her impatiently: "Where's the master? Don't you have a powerful master here?"
Shu Yao looked at him coldly: "I am, what's the matter with you?"
"You?" Qin Suju's eyes were filled with suspicion.
Shu Yao said straightforwardly: "If you have something to say, talk about it, if nothing else, get out of here."
Qin Suju was still hesitant: "You'd better be really capable, otherwise... hum!" She said harshly first, and then said, "Something happened in my family recently, you come with me to check it out, I always...
…”
Her face stiffened for a moment, "There is something wrong with someone in my family. I suspect that she is possessed by a monster. She has recently..."
"Wife." Before Qin Suju could finish her words, another person walked in from the door. He was tall and thin, and looked polite.
Qin Suju stopped talking for a moment and her body trembled.
The visitor is Qin Suju’s husband, Wei Huairen.
Wei Huairen came in and slapped her without saying a word: "What are you doing here?"
"I, I just came to take a look." Qin Suju covered her face and answered in a low voice.
"Go back with me." Wei Huairen's eyes were cold.
Qin Suju was obviously unwilling to leave: "I..."
Wei Huairen frowned: "Are you leaving?"
Looking at this posture, it seems that he wants to take action again.
Pan Cui looked at the pitiful Qin Suju and pulled her behind her: "Wei Huairen, Suju is your wife and she is not a prisoner. Why can't you go out for a walk?"
Wei Huairen looked at Pan Cui, with an inexplicable emotion flashing in his eyes, and his face became much better: "Sister Pan, Suju has not been feeling well recently. I want her to go back and take good care of her."
Pan Cui couldn't be nice and angry, and her tone was a bit harsh: "If you want her to be well taken care of, don't do anything to her."
"I understand." Wei Huairen said, grabbed Qin Suju and pulled her out of the door.
Seeing them leaving, Pan Cui sighed: "Oh, what a sin. Suju is a good woman, why did she end up with such a husband?"
