Chapter 47 Four Night Pearls

"Get up and go lift the imperial chair."

The disheveled head emerged from behind the umbrella at Wangxiang Terrace.

"Li Li, is it you?!"

Tang Qing took a closer look and saw that the disheveled head was not some ghost Aunt Li, but the real Li Li.

What's she doing with her hair disheveled? What's the snow-white paint on her face? Why is her mouth so red?

"Don't be afraid. I just washed my hair and put on a facial mask. The lipstick is a little faded."

Li Li wiped her mouth with a tissue as she spoke.

"No fear, no fear, oh, good, oh, good."

Tang Qing got up from the ground, and in order to prove to Li Li that she was not afraid, she kept slapping her butt with both hands, with a smile on her face.

"You'd better not laugh, lest I get scared."

Li Li turned around and walked towards the hall.

"Oh, okay."

Tang Qing followed closely into the hall, slapping himself with his hand as he walked.

Where is your memory? Your dead husband has told you no less than a hundred times that your smile is uglier than your tears. Why don’t you have a long memory?

It took a lot of effort for Li Li to have a good impression of me. How could I make this good impression go away by myself?

Alas, one smile can make a fortune, one smile can enchant a city, one smile can bring a hundred charms, one smile can wipe away grudges... As for me, one smile is annoying!

"You lift that side."

"Oh, okay."

When Tang Qing saw Li Li standing next to the Taishi's chair to greet her, he quickly put away his random thoughts and ran to the other side of the Taishi's chair.

"Huh? Why is it so heavy?"

"Oh, okay."

"What good?"

"Oh, it's not good, it's heavy."

Tang Qing hated himself again. If it weren't for a pair of hands holding the Grand Master's chair, he would have given himself another big slap in the face.

Li Li clearly said why the Taishi chair is so heavy, but I said yes. Do you want the Taishi chair to be heavier and exhaust her to death?

"Ouch, I can't lift it up, forget it!"

Li Li let go.

"Oh, okay."

Tang Qing also gave up.

This time I said "Oh, okay" correctly, the chair only moved two or three steps.

"You push it back to its original position."

Li Li turned around and went to the backyard.

"Oh, okay."

Tang Qing walked to the front of the Taishi's chair and prepared to push the Taishi's chair back to its original position according to Li Li's request.

"Hey, what is this?"

Tang Qing saw four shiny things on the original four legs of the Taishi chair.

"Ah?! It can't be the legendary Night Pearl, right?"

Tang Qing leaned over and took a look, and saw four large crystal-clear round beads embedded in the ground.

The four large round beads were shining brightly in the dim hall. They were red when viewed from the front, blue when viewed from the side, and purple when viewed from the other side.

It was already evening at this time, twilight was closing outside, and the light inside the hall was dim, and the four large round beads shone brighter and brighter.

"plum……"

Tang Qing wanted to call Li Li and ask her to come over and see what these four big round beads were? But as soon as he opened his mouth, he closed it again.

No, you can't be too reckless. Maybe Li Li knew about the existence of these four big round beads and deliberately tested me.

Yes, it is entirely possible to test me.

Aren't others talking about it? They said that I ran so actively to the Li family's old house because I must be trying to steal the treasures of the old house.

Bah, fuck you, auntie, am I, Tang Qing, that kind of person? Did you call me Master Jiujin for nothing?

Even if this Li family's old house has gold and silver, I, Tang Qing, don't care about it. What I, Tang Qing, care about is a feeling, a true feeling, a true feeling that Mr. Li thinks highly of my Master Jiujin!

Tang Qing silently pushed the Taishi chair to its original position, and then left, walking to the aisle and calling Li Li:

"Li Li, you can start."

"Here we come."

Li Li came to the hall, without makeup or clothes, clean and fresh.

"You carry Mr. Li's portrait outside to the viewing platform, and I will hold an umbrella for you."

Tang Qing stood beside the Eight Immortals table with a black umbrella in hand.

Li Li took the old man's portrait from the table and walked out of the hall. Tang Qing opened an umbrella to cover the portrait.

The older generation said that at this time, the souls of the dead are attached to their portraits and cannot see the light.

After arriving at the Wangxiang Terrace, Tang Qing instructed Li Li'an to place the portrait, light three sticks of incense and kowtow three times outside the gate of the old house. Then he placed the incense in the incense burner in front of the Wangxiang Terrace, and then turned back to pay homage to the Eight Immortals table.

The candlelight was dim and the fragrance was lingering. Li Li was sitting on the Taishi's chair, and Tang Qing was sitting on a small wooden stool at the bottom. The two were silent, each thinking about their own thoughts.

Tang Qing didn't know what Li Li was thinking, but she was undecided, hesitant, and uneasy in her heart.

I want to ask Li Li if she is pregnant? But is it appropriate to ask in such a situation?

Master Li's soul is still there, can I cause trouble for him?

Tonight was the last time he took a look at his relatives in the world. It was rare for Li Li to agree with Master Li.

During Mr. Li's lifetime, Li Li was scolded as an illegitimate daughter, and she vowed not to step foot in the Li family's old house. Everyone in Yancheng knew this.

When Mr. Li was on his deathbed, it was not easy for Li Li to be able to go to his bedside to bid him farewell.

"You add three more sticks of incense, and I'll heat up the dishes."

Tang Qing saw that the three sticks of fragrance on the incense burner on the Eight Immortals Table were almost burned out, so he reminded Li Li.

Li Li stood up, first walked to the Eight Immortals table, lit three sticks of incense, and put it on. Then, she went to the Wangxiang Terrace in the yard and lit three more sticks of incense and stuck it on.

"It's ready to eat."

Tang Qing greeted Li Li in the kitchen.

The small kitchen table has the same twelve dishes as the Eight Immortals table outside, except that the Eight Immortals table uses large plates and the small dining table uses small plates.

"Is the food delicious? Eat more, we will stay up all night tonight."

Tang Qing saw that Li Li was silent and had nothing to say.

Li Li didn't respond, just minding her own meal.

Tang Qing didn't dare to speak again if he wanted to.

Tang Qing was most frightened when Li Li was silent, and it was the same at school.

The students were most afraid of Li Li being silent. Even the class teacher was afraid of Li Li who was silent.

Because if you provoke her at this time, her burst of energy will be enough to destroy you.

I guess the food Tang Qing cooked was to Li Li's taste. She finished a large bowl of fried rice cakes at noon, and at night she ate a lot of each bowl of food, as well as two small bowls of rice.

Although Li Li went to the backyard without saying a word after dinner, Tang Qing was still very happy.

She is always worried that the food she cooks is not to Li Li's taste. She is a frequent visitor to a big hotel. Does she like the home-cooked food I cook?

Li Liquan only ate a little of the previous four "Q" dinners. Tang Qing thought she had done a bad job and felt very disappointed.

Li Li ate so much tonight, Tang Qing was really happy.

Don't be happy!

How can I be happy about Mr. Li's "May 7th"?

Tang Qing tidied up the kitchen happily, and before going to the hall, he picked up the stainless steel kitchen knife and took a look at his face to see if there was a smile.

Hey, have you forgotten that your smile is uglier than crying?

No problem, feel free to be happy. The happier you are, the more sad people will think you are.

What are you thinking about? Tonight is Mr. Li's "Five Seven". Are you bored or not, thinking about these things? Are you so happy that Li Li eats well? If she eats them all, you will be so excited that you can't sleep for three days and three nights?

There is no need to stay awake for three days and three nights. I can't doze off tonight under any circumstances. Otherwise, if Li Li hears my snoring, I will be embarrassed and thrown into my grandma's house.

"Oh my god!"

While Tang Qing was thinking wildly with a kitchen knife in his hand, Li Li heard a panicked shout from the front yard.

"how?"

Tang Qing ran out of the kitchen with a kitchen knife in hand and rushed to the front yard.

Li Li was seen standing in front of the gazebo, covering her chest with her hands, her face pale, and her body trembling.

"What's the matter?"

Tang Qing quickly came to Li Li's side.

"That, that, there."

Li Li stretched out her hand and pointed tremblingly at the door.

"snake?!"

Tang Qing looked in the direction where Li Li's hand was pointing, and saw a big snake wagging its tail and crawling into the old house.

Probably after hearing the voices of Li Li and Tang Qing, the big snake stopped moving forward and stood at the gate with its head raised.

"what to do?"

Li Li's body involuntarily moved closer to Tang Qing.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

Tang Qing felt a surge of heroism in his heart, and his whole body was filled with heroic spirit.

"Drive it away quickly."

Li Li leaned closer to Tang Qing, almost pressing her entire body against Tang Qing's body.
