Chapter 8 Eye of Reincarnation
Although Zheng He's wife was talking to He Xiaoman in the howling cold wind, her characteristic shrewd expression of country women almost said "Come and ask me, I know everything" written on her face.
.
Okay, as you wish.
Faced with He Xiaoman's extremely curious questions, Zheng He's daughter-in-law naturally knew everything she wanted to say.
"I'm just telling you this. Don't tell anyone else, especially your fourth aunt. If word gets out, who will I become? Don't let others know!"
After the broadcast from the No. 1 loudspeaker of Huaishubao was completed, Zheng He's wife waved to He Xiaoman and returned home with satisfaction.
She just couldn't stand the arrogance of Zhang's fourth daughter-in-law. What's the big deal about opening several pork shops? Isn't she just a pig butcher?
The most important thing is, how can you deceive people like this? You know that your house is haunted and you lie to your mother and sisters to come back to live there, but they run far away.
Zhang Caihua is an honest man, but her daughter He Xiaoman is not easy to mess with. This time the old Zhang family has something to eat again, Zheng He's wife thought happily.
After hearing these rumors, He Xiaoman still walked to the town to buy coal as planned, and also bought a pile of construction waste wood sold by the relocated households in the town to make firewood, and then took the coal truck back to his place.
He Xiaoman's expression in the mansion didn't even calm down.
He Xiaoman never saw Yuan Dewang who was hired to look at the house. He was probably sent away by his fourth aunt. After all, he was a hired person and had to pay wages.
My good uncle and aunt can no longer use the word "immoral" to praise them.
At this time, my uncle's very efficient and proactive spending behavior finally found a more reasonable explanation.
The old house has been haunted since it was built from a Peking flat into a three-story building by my uncle.
It was just that at that time, various gossips about relocation and compensation were rampant. The whole village was fanatically dreaming of getting rich overnight. The fourth uncle and aunt were so greedy for profit that they kept this matter under wraps. People outside were stunned.
Don't know any news at all.
In fact, from that time on, they would be thrown out of the house every now and then. In the morning, they would often sleep in the warm morning light until they woke up naturally. Even the elderly grandmother was not spared.
He Xiaoman felt that the reason why her grandmother, who had always been in good health, fell ill without any warning was probably related to being often thrown out of the house and blown into the cold wind.
Then the wealthy developer suddenly contracted Shuanglong Temple to develop a scenic spot, Lihua Mountain became an abandoned child, grandma fell ill, and my uncle and aunt finally left the old house openly and openly under the pretext of moving to the hospital to take care of the elderly.
However, they did not give up completely at that time and spent a lot of money to hire Yuan Dewang, an old bachelor from the town, to help look after the house.
The Zhang family's old house is probably the most remote house in Huaishubao and has the largest yard. The fourth uncle, who had no profit and could not afford to stay early, took a fancy to the old house because it was particularly close to Lihua Mountain. There was a river in the front and a small hillside in the back, and there were ten more
Several Kubo peach trees that had already set fruit would definitely be chosen by the developer as a farmhouse-type hotel, so he reinforced the original Peking flat and quickly built two more floors on top.
However, after reinforcement, how could the foundation of the bungalow be able to withstand the weight of an extra two-story house out of thin air? In order to avoid the tragedy of cheating... blackmailing... making money and losing money, the second floor of He Xiaoman's mansion was almost entirely covered with
The wooden one can be made as thin as possible even if it is necessary to use earth and stone. The third layer is even more exaggerated. It is just a thick paper shell wrapped in plastic film on the second layer of roof and then some fake sand and cement.
He Xiaoman could knock down the house on the third floor with one kick.
Therefore, whenever my uncle mentioned this "three-story villa", the corner of He Xiaoman's mouth would always twitch uncontrollably. The fourth uncle and aunt knew well the principle of "as long as I am not embarrassed, it will always be others who are embarrassed."
Having to leave my mother in the countryside for the sake of business, my pitiful divorced sister gave her her beloved super luxurious villa with beautiful views of the mountains and rivers as a gift.
Yes, look how great you two are. When you give your mother a house, you also give her an unknown species that doesn’t allow the owner to live in the house.
Because the entire two-story house upstairs was full of people, and the only ones that could live in were the three old houses on the first floor. They lived in a three-story villa, but there was not even a utility room. He Xiaoman had to put the two tons
All the coal was unloaded into the yard.
After finding a fairly sharp sickle, He Xiaoman used his leather gloves to cut down the weeds and thorn vines that were half a man tall in the yard. This thing was a good material for starting a fire.
After cutting for three hours, He Xiaoman found that it was like a mountain. She could carry beer boxes for a whole day without a blister on her delicate hands. However, even with gloves on, her palms and fingers were still covered with big blisters.
Blisters big and small.
After stretching my aching waist, I saw that the originally deserted yard had been cleaned up. The gloomy feeling seemed to have faded away. At least at first glance, it had little to do with the haunted house.
At this moment, He Xiaoman felt a sense of accomplishment.
In the past, the fourth uncle and the others did not dare to disclose the hauntings in order to pay for the relocation, but He Xiaoman did not care about this.
You know, the Northeast was once the world of shamanism. When He Xiaoman was a child, there would occasionally be "skilled people" who didn't do well in the village to solve problems for the peasant brothers. Now these masters have risen again, and there are always people from ten miles and eight villages.
Then a few talented old fairies can solve these troubles.
When I was a child, I heard stories about tricking the wall, fox fairies and yellow immortals repaying favors, and stories about female ghosts spending ghost coins to buy milk powder for their children at night. He Xiaoman didn't listen too much. This is why she can do this when faced with tricking the wall.
The reason for calmness.
None of these evil things cannot be solved by the Immortal. If there are, it must be because the money is not in place or the Immortal has been exhausted.
When you have difficulties, sometimes you don’t necessarily need to find someone to help you.
If we can solve it ourselves, we will try not to cause trouble to the country.
After finishing her work, He Xiaoman suddenly felt that she needed to solve some people's livelihood problems. The place of reincarnation of grains was still in the southwest corner of the yard, so she ran over and killed it.
Everything is good in rural areas, but the problems of heating and toileting in the north are really incomparable with those in cities. (I’m talking about the majority here, don’t go looking for a sense of existence.)
Especially for a house like an old house with a very spacious yard, a trip to the toilet in winter can be as lethal as basking in the sun at the equator and suddenly being thrown to the North Pole.
He Xiaoman muttered that when he had money, he would either build a toilet in the house or build a fully enclosed hand-operated corridor in the yard like in ancient times.
Then she walked into the toilet built with wooden planks and red bricks. Because the toilet was covered with a cover that prevented the sun from reaching it, the cesspit was already frozen. A man had half his head exposed and stared at her eyes wide open without blinking.
