Chapter 14 The Widow Calls

Niu Xiaotian coughed twice in a hurry, interrupted the argument between the two, and said with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, please don't quarrel, I have something else to say."

The room fell into silence.

Niu Xiaotian drank a glass of wine unhurriedly, lit up a cigarette, and said in astonishing words: "Uncle Lin, your appearance indicates that you are destined to be a noble person. You will lose your official position this year, and you will be promoted next year, and it will get better and better every year."

Okay, I'll say happy birthday in advance."

"Really?" Lin Dahai's eyes widened.

"If I'm wrong, you can kick me out of Xingwang Village without any complaints."

After being stunned for a moment, Lin Dahai laughed loudly. He cleared away the gloom in his mind and pointed at Niu Xiaotian, "You brat, you are deliberately trying to show off. You are breathing heavily when you talk, and you will be fined for drinking!"

"Haha, it's been rumored in the village that Xiao Tian is very good and has a very accurate point of view." Jiang Liwan also laughed.

Next.

The dinner table became cheerful and full of laughter.

During this period, Jiang Liwan also wanted to read fortune tellers, but Niu Xiaotian tried to cover it up on the grounds that she was too drunk to tell her fortune.

Jiang Liwan has a secret!

Niu Xiaotian saw it, but couldn't tell anyone.

Dizzy from drinking, Niu Xiaotian and Heizi returned home under the moonlight.

He heated the kang and boiled water, and brewed a cup of high-grade jasmine given by Lin Dahai. The house was filled with the pleasant fragrance of tea.

After half a cup of tea, Niu Xiaotian took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket after the alcohol had subsided. After such a long time, the stamens of the moongrass in the bottle had wilted.

This substance needs to be soaked in clean water to dissolve the medicinal effects.

Purified water is not pure water, nor pure water, mineral water, etc., but a material in Taoism that can only be obtained after special treatment.

Place the table in the east and light three sticks of incense.

Take a small bowl of clean water, place it under the incense candle, and let it sit for a quarter of an hour.

Niu Xiaotian washed his hands, first bowed three times towards the desk, and then stretched his palms flat, vertically above the water bowl.

Close your eyes slightly.

The sky is spirited, the earth is spirited, the Supreme Lord will appear soon!

The above is nonsense. The real water purification mantra is: the sky creates water, and the earth makes up 60% of it. One and six are commanded, and the five behaviors are the basis. Now the wind is coming, and the filth is driven away by dust.

Niu Xiaotian concentrated on it, recited it silently three times, and then retracted his palm. Then he looked carefully at the bowl of water. There seemed to be a shallow layer of mist above the water.

That's the effect.

Get a wooden spoon, scoop up the clean water, pour it into the small medicine bottle, and cover it with a leather stopper.

It still needs to sit for three days.

In order to prevent Zhang Yongbiao from causing trouble, Niu Xiaotian simply placed the small medicine bottle in the swallow's nest under the eaves. Anyway, the old swallow had not been here for two years.

After finishing their work, Niu Xiaotian went to sleep on the kang, and soon fell asleep due to the strength of the wine.

Heizi wanted to follow, but was ruthlessly rejected, so he had to lie down in the yard reluctantly.

The ringtone of his cell phone woke up Niu Xiaotian, and he grabbed it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, who's there?"

Niu Xiaotian was having a sweet dream and asked angrily.

"Xiaotian, this is Yang Shuimei, are you lying in bed again?" A familiar female voice came from inside.

It's Widow Yang who called. She really can't speak. Does it have anything to do with you whether I can get up or not?

Niu Xiaotian rubbed his eyelids, the windows were covered with kraft paper, and the room was dark. He could barely make out the clock on the wall, which pointed to ten o'clock in the morning.

"You're up early, what's the matter?" Niu Xiaotian turned over.

"Tian'er, can you come to my natal village?" Widow Yang asked tentatively.

"It's so troublesome to talk, why are you going to do it?"

"Xiaotian, you are really capable. I want you to take a good look at it. Which of the babies in your belly is going to be stabbed a thousand times?" Widow Yang scolded.

Niu Xiaotian's eyes widened and he asked in great surprise: "Are you mistaken? Why don't you even know who the child is?"

"I really don't know. After I came back, I was scolded miserably by my mother. Xiaotian, I am a pitiful person! If you don't help me, I will have no choice but to drown myself in the river, killing two people. At this time next year, do you remember to give me something to my sister?"

Put some incense and burn some paper money. You will suffer the consequences while you are alive, and no one will care about you when you die. Uh-huh-huh..."

Widow Yang's crying sound came from the mobile phone. It was unpleasant, like a cat meowing.

Niu Xiaotian was nagging her so much, Widow Yang was life-saving and fierce, no one's saliva could drown her out!

"How much can you give me?" Niu Xiaotian asked.

"Why are you asking for money? I'm a widow, so how can I have any money?"

“No need to talk if you don’t have money.”

"Then, two hundred." Widow Yang struggled to squeeze out a number through her teeth.

"Too little, it will take a whole day." Niu Xiaotian refused.

"Otherwise, you can use the things in my house as you like. I don't want to go back anyway. I'll lose all my face." Widow Yang discussed.

We are also desperate!

Niu Xiaotian finally agreed and would not care about her scolding him.

After getting dressed and getting off the kang, I opened my backpack, which contained the bagged cooked food and two large hams I bought before going up the mountain.

After soaking a pack of instant noodles, Niu Xiaotian tore open the ham and took one out of the room.

The yard was empty, and Heizi was nowhere to be seen.

A bastard who cheats people out of food and drinks. Does it mean that his family is poor and he has joined someone else?

"Heizi! Heizi!"

Niu Xiaotian shouted twice at the top of his lungs, and suddenly he saw a black shadow jumping out from the corner of the wall. The one who was shaking his head and wagging his tail was none other than Heizi.

Throwing the ham, Heizi jumped up to catch it and ran away to taste the delicious food.

Niu Xiaotian walked to the corner with square steps, and then he discovered that there was a small mound of earth. Heizi had actually dug a deep hole. It was round and vaguely visible, and it was covered with clean thatch.

"Hey, you're good at digging holes. We're about to catch up with the groundhog."

Niu Xiaotian was happy. At night, Heizi was hidden inside, and most people couldn't find it.

Find a shovel and lift the pile of soil to the corner of the wall. This way, the dog hole becomes more secret.

He was going to Sanwan Village soon and didn't know when he would be back. Niu Xiaotian thought about it and still felt that it was not safe to leave Heizi at home.

He didn't want to see Heizi become dog meat on other people's tables when he came back.

After returning to the house and finishing the instant noodles, Niu Xiaotian wiped his mouth and locked the door, greeted Heizi and left the house.

Without transportation, traveling was awkward, so Niu Xiaotian decided to buy a second-hand motorcycle, which could be regarded as adding a fixed asset.

When I arrived at the only car repair shop in the village, the shopkeeper Li Fuguang was repairing a women's battery car with his eyes squinting while holding a cigarette in his mouth.

"Shopkeeper Li, I don't want to sell that bicycle."

As Niu Xiaotian spoke, he took out five dollars from his pocket. Li Fuguang immediately became angry, "Xiaotian, if you don't do things like this, how can you go back after selling it?"

"Nowadays, you can get a refund within seven days if you buy something online. It's only been one night."

"No, no! Don't be ridiculous. I have already dismantled your old bicycle and sent it to the blacksmith as scrap metal." Li Fuguang shook his head like a rattle, and squinted his eyes guiltily as he said, "Xiaotian, your

I really can’t make any money selling this broken bicycle, I’ll lose money even if I sell it as scrap!”

"Uncle Fu Guang, if you say that, I have to ask you to find out. That car was sold as scrap and couldn't even be sold for five yuan? Who would believe it?"

"It was sold together with other scraps. I can't remember exactly. Come on, I'll give you another five yuan!"

Haha! Niu Xiaotian burst into laughter, "Uncle Fu Guang, you really don't take teasing! I came here this time to see if you have a small motorcycle that you can ride? I'll buy it with money."
