He was wearing a black cotton-padded jacket, his hair was greasy and tacked up, and he looked particularly vicissitudes of life.
Seeing us coming downstairs, the cigarette held in his black and hard fingers fell directly to the ground.
Uncle Qian looked past his second uncle and looked into my eyes.
Lulu frowned and stood in front of me: "Aunt Lu, let's go eat."
Aunt Lu rubbed her hands in embarrassment, looked at Uncle Qian and then at Second Uncle, lowered her head and said, "Okay."
Lulu angrily pulled Aunt Lu away and I followed.
It was the second uncle who was talking to Uncle Qian from behind.
There was a distance between us, so I couldn't hear what they were saying. Lulu also chirped to Aunt Lu about what happened after we got here. Aunt Lu screamed in surprise and kept saying that I was lucky, I
It's even harder to hear.
We walked out of the gate of the community and were about to cross the road.
A man suddenly fell out of the hardware store next to the restaurant.
"You! You are ignorant! I will definitely be successful in the future! I will kill your store by then!"
I grabbed Aunt Lu's right hand and couldn't help but glance at that person.
That person turned out to be a young man who was in the same ward as us!
The white half sleeves on his body were dirty, his hair looked even more withered, and he was as thin as a praying mantis, sitting in front of the hardware store.
The proprietress of the hardware store came out, poured a basin of water on him, pinched his waist and scolded him: "Are you still Taishan? As a clerk, you still want to get a salary of 5,000 a month? I hired a clerk, not a lunatic!"
After saying this, the landlady went back to the store angrily.
There are many people on the road, and they are all talking about him now.
"No? A clerk wants a salary of five thousand?"
"It's a shame he dared to speak."
"Yes, are his hands of gold or his mouth of gold?"
"I don't know. Come on, the restaurant owner is coming out. Let's go queue up."
Others talked a lot, and the young man's face turned red and white, and finally he gritted his teeth and patted his butt and ran away.
Aunt Lu shook her head and clicked her tongue: "It's so cold, why is he wearing half sleeves?"
I remembered his puzzling behavior before and my second uncle's words not to provoke such people, so I took Aunt Lu's hand and said, "Don't worry about Aunt Lu, let's go eat."
"Why."
When Uncle Zhou saw us coming, he cooked a large table of delicious dishes for Aunt Lu. The restaurant was busy, so we ate in the rest room.
In fact, Lulu and I were both full, but Uncle Zhou was very good at cooking, so we still ate for a while.
During this time, the second uncle led Uncle Qian in.
The rest room is not big. After the second uncle and uncle Qian came in, there was no room.
Uncle Qian was leaning against the wall with a haggard look on his face, his face was dark and his beard was unkempt.
"Second brother, I know it was our fault before, but for the sake of fellow villagers, can you go back and help us?"
As soon as the second uncle opened his mouth, Lulu slammed her chopsticks on the table, stared at her eyes and said: "Village chief, why didn't you take care of your fellow villagers before? You also beat them with rotten vegetable leaves.
Nuan Ting, you even pushed Uncle Yun down, why didn’t you talk about our fellow countrymen before driving us away?”
Hiss... I pulled Lulu. Lulu has become more and more outspoken recently. She says whatever she wants.
Lulu shook off my hand: "Don't pull me, am I right?"
I looked at my second uncle again. He was sitting aside smoking and smiling, not talking.
Uncle Qian immediately blushed and started hesitating, unable to say a word.
I turned around and saw Aunt Lu put down her chopsticks: "Aunt Lu, are you full? There are still so many dishes."
Aunt Lu smiled and touched the back of my head: "Aunt Lu can't eat it."
I felt a little distressed when I saw Aunt Lu's kind look.
People in the village will get into trouble if they are troubled, but Aunt Lu is really good to my family, and I don’t want Aunt Lu to be troubled by ghosts too.
"Aunt Lu, is your house also haunted?" I asked in a low voice.
Aunt Lu paused, thought carefully, and suddenly said in surprise: "That's not true. During this time, every household is haunted in the middle of the night. I heard from everyone, but there has never been any trouble in my house."
For a moment, the second uncle, Lulu and I all raised our eyelids.
Why was it that everyone in the village was troubled but not Aunt Lu’s family?
Does that ghost know Aunt Lu?
I scratched the back of my head in confusion, turned to Uncle Qian and twitched my lower lip: "Uncle Qian, do you know what that ghost looks like?"
When Uncle Qian saw me talking to him, he immediately became excited and said hurriedly: "I invited several immortals before, and they said everything. Some said that the cemetery of the ancestors of the old Lin family was not good, and some said that they were brought back by people who went out to work.
There are also rumors that a rat turned into a spirit, and the most common theory is that it is haunted, but no one can say what it looks like specifically."
Lulu covered my mouth forcefully and gritted her teeth in my ear: "Why are you talking to him? Have you forgotten what he did to you and Uncle Yun?"
As soon as Lulu said that, I immediately remembered the day we were stopped at the entrance of the village. The rotten vegetable leaves hitting my body were like whips. The pain seemed to be engraved in my heart, and my mood became depressed.
I picked up a piece of shredded apple and put it in my mouth. The shredded apple was sweet but bitter in my mouth.
Aunt Lu sighed heavily and slapped her thigh twice: "You're doing evil! You're doing evil! Qian Laoliu, if you hadn't driven Guizhi away, this wouldn't have happened in our village! Let's talk about it.
It’s all your fault!”
"Yes, yes, blame me, but the villagers are innocent. You can blame me as much as you want. I just beg you, second brother, to go back and take a look!"
"Why are they innocent?" Lulu stood up suddenly. I saw her eyes were red and her body was shaking with anger. "Weren't they the ones who beat Nuanting with vegetable leaves? Weren't they the ones who pushed Uncle Yun down?
?Aren't they the ones who called Nuanting a monster?"
"Fortunately, Nuanting still has my second uncle and me, otherwise, she would become like neighbor 603!" Lulu suddenly burst into tears as she spoke.
My heart throbbed, and I hurriedly ran over and hugged Lulu's neck: "Lulu, don't cry."
Lulu leaned on my shoulder and cried while talking: "I just feel wronged for you."
I was so moved that I shed tears.
However, when I raised my eyelids, I saw Aunt Lu's worried eyes and her hands squeezing her coat.
Aunt Lu is kind to me, even if it is for Aunt Lu, I may have to go back and take a look.
I turned around and looked at my second uncle.
My second uncle happened to be looking at me too.
Seeing me turning around, my second uncle put out the cigarette in his hand, stood up and said with a serious and serious expression: "We can't go back."
Uncle Qian was stunned as if struck by lightning: "Second brother..."
The second uncle sighed, as if he had vomited out all the emotion and melancholy in his chest: "We, Miss Yun, are monsters. We won't go back for fear of scaring you."
Uncle Qian's two big black hands moved back and forth anxiously: "How could it be possible? Isn't this girl Yun a good girl? How can she be a monster! It was all my fault at first that I listened to that boy Li Long's words, and this is all my fault. Go back to me
I will make it clear to everyone that Girl Yun is just an ordinary child!"
