Chapter 19 The Ominous Man

"Dad, are you allergic?" Bai Banxia walked over.

"Daughter, you, you..." Bai Tian's expression was distorted with fear, and he grabbed his clothes to cover himself.

Bai Banxia held his hand and said, "The allergy is quite serious and needs to be treated, but it is not a serious illness. What are you hiding?"

"You don't understand!" Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Bai Tian squatted down slumped, covered his head and sounded muffled, as if he was crying.

Bai Banxia also squatted next to him without urging him, waiting for him to calm down a little before talking.

After a while, Bai Tian sniffed and said: "I haven't been able to get out of the sun since I was a child. Once I get in the sun, I get a rash on my head and face at night, which hurts and itches so much. Why can't serious people see the sun anymore?"

Evil things and ghosts are afraid of the sun."

"This is all a mess, you are allergic to ultraviolet rays." Bai Banxia has black lines on her head. The ancients were really superstitious.

"Daughter, you don't understand. In the early years, there was a person like this in Xiashui Village. They said she was an unlucky person. Later, she was sent to the Madman Tower by the government." Bai Tian sighed, "Your grandparents told me not to let anyone

People know that even your uncle and the others didn't tell me, just because they were afraid that I would be arrested by the government."

Farmers often mentioned the Madman Tower when scaring children, for example: if they cry at night, they will attract the monsters from the Madman Tower, and if they don't eat well, they will be sent to the Madman Tower.

In fact, the Madman's Tower is a place where crazy people are kept, but it is also a place where people who are considered unlucky are placed.

"What kind of ominous person is he? He's just allergic to ultraviolet rays. He's really ignorant." Bai Banxia was a little angry, but she thought how miserable the person who was taken to the Madman Tower was. Being regarded as an ominous person, her family was afraid of the future life.

It's also very difficult.

"What is ultraviolet light?" Bai Tian asked puzzledly.

Uh...this is not easy to explain.

Bai Banxia thought for a while and said: "It's the things in the sun. Many people will peel off after being exposed to the sun. In fact, it is the same as your allergies. Dad, don't worry, I will prescribe medicine for you and it will be relieved soon.

When the time comes, just make sure to cover your face and hands when you go out."

Bai Tian waved his hands hurriedly, "No, no, won't others know that I am an evil person?"

The superstition of the ancients cannot be changed overnight, and it cannot be reversed by her Bai Banxia with a few words, so this problem cannot be exposed.

"Then when I give you some sunscreen, you can apply it on your skin before going out, and then reapply it every few hours, and you won't be afraid anymore."

Bai Tian's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Bai Banxia nodded, "My mother and I will set up the stall these days, and we can come and help when my father gets better."

This time Bai Tian didn't object and said happily: "Okay, okay, I will do whatever you ask me to do. Dad is actually not lazy."

"I understand, I understand." Bai Banxia laughed.

It's a pity that she doesn't have any medicine at present, so she can only find some heat-clearing and anti-inflammatory herbs from the sun, and let her father soak it in water and rub it.

She will go to Dr. Xu tomorrow morning to buy some other medicinal materials. First, she will prepare a medicinal soup for her father to prepare, and then think of a way to apply it on it.

Probably because he was in a good mood, or maybe the herbal medicine had some effect, Bai Tian felt much better, and the two of them quickly went back to the house to continue resting.

The window of another room was slightly open, and a person behind the window had a panoramic view of everything...

Early the next morning, before Bai Banxia had slept enough, she was woken up by yelling and cursing in the yard.

"Who stole my chicken? It's a heart-breaking thing!" The old lady was furious and took a fire stick and knocked on the door from house to house. "Why are you sleeping? Who stole the chicken?"

It turned out that the old lady got up early in the morning and went to the kitchen to take a look. Half of the chicken left yesterday was missing. She rummaged through the kitchen but couldn't find it. She immediately realized that the chicken had been stolen.

Bai Banxia reluctantly got up, and as soon as she left the house, she saw that the old lady was already searching the house with a fire stick.

Who would steal that half chicken and hide it in his own house? Unless he is stupid.

Sure enough, the old lady searched around but couldn't find it. However, when she saw Zhang Lingzhi still holding the basket of eggs, she became even more angry.

"Do you think you can lay an egg by holding an egg? You can't sleep for a long time even if you have thin eyelids. Can you give birth to a son by sleeping on it?" The old lady pointed at Zhang Lingzhi and cursed, almost poking her head with her finger.

Already.

Bai Tian hurriedly went to help the old lady, "Mom, don't get so angry. Let's find the chicken quickly. If we are too late, we might be eaten by others."

His words diverted the old lady's attention very well, and the old lady trotted all the way to the backyard to rummage.

The old man also got up and said, "See if there is a burglar in the house?"

Uncle Baishan was always steady. He looked at the courtyard door and then the courtyard wall and said, "There should be no intruders."

"I think it's a thief. Which one of you stole it!" The old lady gasped in anger. Bai Tian went over to give her a pat on the back and persuaded her not to be so angry.

"Whoever is greedy is the one who gets it." Erbo Baishui said angrily, his pair of squinty eyes even glanced in Zhang Lingzhi's direction.

Yes, Zhang Lingzhi secretly took a bite while cooking, and the old lady saw it and scolded her for several days.

As expected, the old lady looked at Zhang Lingzhi, glared at her and asked, "Are you greedy again?"

Bai Banxia was not happy now and said, "We caught the chicken. If we really want to eat it secretly, why should we give it to our family?"

"Maybe you just want to take it out to gain a good reputation, and then steal half of it at night so that no one can find it on you." Bai Shui sneered, "Or maybe you caught more than one, and you ate and drank enough outside.

Bring a small one back to show filial piety."

Yayadi, Bai Banxia suddenly wanted to roll up her sleeves and hit someone.

"It's so easy what you said. You should go and catch a few for us to see." Bai Banxia raised his eyebrows, "My father and I worked so hard to catch a pheasant, but you still called it

You are a sinner, I don’t know if my second uncle is suspicious by nature and always thinks the worst of others, or is he jealous that we honor our grandparents and is deliberately looking for trouble?"

"You girl are sharp-tongued now, and you have no respect for your elders at all. Let's see which girl in the village is like you." Bai Shui couldn't say anything more, so he used his identity as an elder to suppress Bai Banxia.

Bai Banxia sneered, "That second uncle is always yin and yang, which affects the harmony of the family. Who has an elder like you in the village?"

"Okay, forget it if you can't find it. Let's have breakfast and go to work." The old man saw that the neighbors next door were alarmed. He looked into the Bai family yard and felt a little embarrassed.

"Eat whatever you want, don't eat anything this morning." The old lady lost her temper and simply turned around and locked the kitchen door.

"Why bother?" The old man shook his head in disapproval, but this time the old lady was really angry, and it was useless for anyone to say anything.

Bai Banxia was also very angry. She caught the pheasant to honor the elderly. How could someone have the nerve to steal?

As for who someone is, she already knows it in her mind.

So she showed a sweet smile and said to the old lady: "Grandma, don't be angry, I have a way to find out who it is."
