Chapter 608 Don't Go, Tonight is Hungry Ghost Festival
On the night of the Ghost Festival, Gu Nuoer was watched closely by Gu Yihan and Concubine Qiao and was not allowed to leave the palace.
People in Daqi believe that on the night of the Ghost Festival, their departed relatives will return to the world again.
It would be bad if you accidentally bump into a ghost friend while wandering around the street and be followed home.
After the sun goes down and turns into night, it's a good time for ghosts to take to the streets.
Even gambling houses and brothels that usually do business around the clock will be closed on this day.
Afraid of attracting something bad.
The little one was in the palace, and Ye Siming was bored, so he stayed in the house.
During the dinner, when he was eating with Bai Yi and his wife, Mrs. Bai was suddenly startled and dropped her chopsticks.
"Ms. sir, no, I forgot to buy the paper money. It's all Wen Fuling's fault. I completely forgot about it."
As she talked, Mrs. Bai, who wanted to be strong like that, actually wanted to cry.
"What should we do? Rongrong can't have no money to spend, otherwise other ghosts will bully her. The child is already small..."
Bai Yi hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks to comfort her: "Madam, don't worry, I will go to the street in a moment. There is a shop for general business at the west and east end, which is probably still open."
Mrs. Bai wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Today is special. No one will open the door. I'm afraid it's already closed. Besides, it's already dark and it's not safe. You don't want to go."
Bai Yi frowned: "How can this be done? It's just a paper money purchase. It's very fast. Besides, I'm a grown man, so I'm afraid of gods and ghosts. I'm not afraid of slanted shadows when I'm upright."
Mrs. Bai patted him gently: "There is a god in your head, so don't talk nonsense."
While the couple was mumbling sadly, Ye Siming looked like he was full and put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"I'll go and buy."
Bai Yi and his wife raised their heads, somewhat surprised.
Ye Siming's eyes were indifferent, and when the candlelight in the sutra hall illuminated his eyes, his dark pupils appeared faint.
"I'll go on horseback. It won't take long to come back and forth."
After saying that, he stood up directly, asked the servant to bring him a riding whip, and asked the servant to lead the horse.
Bai Yi and his wife chased them out of the hall: "Si Ming, it's better not to go. Tonight is the Ghost Festival."
Ye Siming sneered: "What happened to the Ghost Festival?"
"There is a ghost!" Mrs. Bai said in a fuss.
Ye Siming held the reins and quickly turned onto his horse. His movements were neat and his robe drew a black arc.
He raised his eyebrows high: "Am I still afraid of this?"
There is nothing I have not seen in the Shura realm.
Bai Yi was a little worried: "Otherwise, I'll go with you. You've never been to Xidong Street, and it's still a bit far."
"I know where it is. There is a shop that makes good snacks. I went there once to buy snacks for Gu Nuoer."
Bai Yi was speechless.
What about this thing?
After Ye Siming said this, he stopped chatting with the two of them, raised his whip, and left.
His figure stepped through the night fog and disappeared at the end of the road after a while.
The autumn night was already cold, but now there was a faint cold wind blowing, and there was not a single star in the sky, which was very dark.
Mrs. Bai stood at the door worriedly, and the two lanterns under the eaves were swaying in the wind.
Bai Yi shook his wife's hand: "Let's go back to the house and wait. Si Ming is young and energetic, so he won't encounter unclean things by chance."
Mrs. Bai turned around and punched him: "You don't feel bad, but I still feel bad! Go move a bench, I will wait for him in the concierge. Although he has never called me mother, I have long regarded him as my biological son.
Treat, how can a mother not worry when her son goes out?"
Bai Yi couldn't resist her, so he had to bring two benches and the couple waited together.
In fact, according to his military thinking, all gods and ghosts are things that people with a guilty conscience are afraid of.
Si Mingxing was sitting upright, how could he meet him?
