Although I still didn't understand what it meant, He Xiner was so frightened that it felt like it was not a good thing.
"Second Aunt, let me tell Xin'er."
"Okay, I'll clean up the inner room quickly, otherwise your mother will be very annoyed."
Without saying a word, Wang hurriedly opened the cotton curtain and went to work.
"Second Aunt is taking care of things, so let's go back to the kitchen and prepare the meal."
The two of them were standing at the door of the main room. Ye Xusheng felt that it was inconvenient to talk, so he took He Xiner's little hand and took them directly back to the backyard.
"Come over to the stove and warm yourself."
After entering the kitchen, Ye Xusheng rushed He Xiner to the stove...
"Cousin, what do you mean by what my mother said?"
He Xiner crossed her arms and rubbed them, looking at Ye Xusheng with eager eyes, with a look of confusion and inexplicable uneasiness.
Seeing her like this, Ye Xusheng quickly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Xin'er, you forgot about this because of amnesia. This is the custom of our Qingzhou Prefecture..."
Um?
Which kind?
Still waiting to hear the next part, what does the cousin mean by being hesitant to speak?
"Cousin, you'd better finish your speech happily. If you say half of it and leave half of it, I'm even more afraid."
He Xiner wrinkled her little face and pouted her little mouth, pretending to look pitiful, but in fact she was very childish~
Not as inexplicably uneasy as before.
Ye Xusheng looked amused, patted her on the head and said, "Visiting to the grave under the New Year's Day is different from visiting the grave during the Qingming Festival. There are no memorial items, only a stick of incense, a few pieces of money to burn, and then the ancestors are invited home to celebrate the New Year..."
…”
"ah……"
He Xiner was really shocked by this weird custom. She exclaimed with a white face, and then hugged Ye Xusheng's arm. Her whole body was trembling with fear, and she cried in a hoarse voice, "Brother, I'm afraid...
…”
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay, that's just a way of saying it. Where do ghosts come from in the world?"
He meant to comfort her at first, but Ye Xusheng found that after saying this, the little girl was shaking even more.
"Don't be afraid, Xin'er, I've been here like this in the past years, and everything has been fine..."
The kitchen door opened from the outside, and Mrs. Wang came in carrying two ceramic basins.
"What's wrong with Xin'er?"
"No, it's okay, it's just that I didn't pay attention when I spoke just now, and I'm a little scared~"
He Xiner let go of her cousin's arm in embarrassment and touched her nose awkwardly, while Ye Xusheng looked at her worriedly before taking the thing in Wang's hand.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay. My ancestors didn't mind it even if they heard it. They know you like to play. It's just that you are celebrating the Chinese New Year, so you should be more careful with what you say."
Is her mother trying to comfort her?
What does it mean that the ancestors didn’t take it seriously after hearing it?
These words made He Xiner's heart tremble. Why did it feel like there were countless 'people' around her looking at her? Ouch, she was even more scared, okay?
Next, when cleaning up the food and so on, He Xiner never left Ye Xusheng's side. The two of them were about to become conjoined twins.
She didn't know why, but He Xiner felt at ease only if she stayed close to her cousin. Whenever she was three steps away from her cousin, she would feel a creepy feeling, and her scalp would tingle.
Well, it must be that the eldest cousin has strong yang energy, and those 'ancestors' dare not get close to him.
Ah, mother!
Why is she thinking about this? It's almost scaring herself to death!
Knowing that she was afraid, Ye Xusheng not only stayed close to her, but also whistled to call out Dabai who was hiding in the west courtyard and was lazing around.
He Xiner was very surprised. When did the cousin and Dabai have such a tacit understanding?
Dabai was also surprised. Even from such a distance, he could hear his cousin's whistle, and he rushed over quickly. It was really amazing!
"Dear darling, don't you love me now? My sister is so scared that you don't come to protect her, wuwu..." This chapter has been completed!
