Traveling through the barren years, picking up space, picking up food, drinking and picking up husba

Chapter 32 Haunted house, dare to live?

Like a trio, the Cen family called and cried.

Neighbors in the neighborhood stretched their necks out to watch the fun.

Qi Xiulan, Cen Zhaojuan's mother-in-law, groaned, "Mother, I, who have been looking forward to the sky and looking forward to the moon, finally have you here. I can't even eat, and I can't sleep well."

Old Madam Cen glanced at Qi Shi, it was the first time she looked at this mother-in-law.

He is taller and thinner than her, with small eyes and a smart face.

Judging from what she said before and after, I knew it was a meeting.

The front stopped her daughter from coming out.

Later, she said that she was so worried that she couldn't sleep.

Gee.

Old Madam Cen straightened her neck and said embarrassedly: "My mother, I have come all the way to trouble you."

"Tsk, the family doesn't talk about each other, come in quickly." The door opened, and the Cen family walked in one after another, and stopped in the courtyard.

I took a look inside and dared not go in. The concrete floor in the house was polished and shiny, and they were sure to get dirty with their dirty clothes.

Old Madam Cen smiled awkwardly: "Mother, let's just say it here, don't go in and cause harm, or you will have to be troubled and clean up again, and we are not comfortable."

Mrs. Qi didn't force her, and waved her hand: "Juanzi, hurry up, take out the bucket, and let your mother's family drink some water to moisten their throats first."

The Cen family filled themselves with water, took a breath, and then spoke: "Mother, to tell you the truth, our Dahe Village won't win, otherwise we wouldn't be able to leave home and come all the way here. It’s from my son, but I will never cause trouble for my in-laws.”

Cen Abao nodded his head sincerely.

"It's just that Xunsi Juanzi is here, it's easy for us to find a place, and we can't be kidnapped or anything."

"Hey, to put it bluntly, I just wanted to ask if there are any vacant houses in our village. We want to buy one." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Cen was also worried. house up.

Cen Abao's black eyes were wide open, and he became nervous, for fear that they would continue their escape.

Qi pondered: "There should be."

She used her arm to cuddle Zhuangliang: "Old man, go ask the village chief, what happened to the last house in our village?"

Zhuang Liang said, "What did you say?" A solemn expression appeared on his face.

This look made the Cen family look at each other, and their hearts beat like a drum: What's wrong, it's so mysterious, just looking at it makes people feel drummed.

"Come on, I'll ask the village chief." Zhuang Liang turned a few steps and looked at the village chief who was walking.

Cen Abao took a look and found that the old man he met at the door was the village chief.

"This is Ren Ren, the village head of our small fishing village." Zhuang Liang introduced: "The village head, these are our real relatives who escaped from the famine and are thinking about settling down here."

Village head Ren first twirled his longevity eyebrows with his fingers, and then twirled his beard: "Shuhu, but our village is full, where is there any spare room?"

The hearts of Cen's family members plummeted when they heard this.

Zhuang Liang patted the village chief on the shoulder: "The village chief forgets things a lot, isn't it, our house at the end of the village."

"Ah." The village head suddenly patted his head: "That room is empty, and the land is also big."

Then he looked at Cen's family: "It's enough to live, but... can they live?"

Just finished talking.

The Cen family yelled tacitly: "Yes! Yes!"

What time is this, what kind of donkey cart do you want?

Village head Ren picked out his ears, good guy, he almost shattered his eardrums: "Tsk, you don't know the situation, the house at the end of the village was a young man who eloped to our village with a young and handsome widow, carrying a The father and mother married the little widow and gave birth to a daughter. Later, the young man's mother came and had a dispute with the little widow. She threw the little widow's daughter to death and stabbed the little widow to death. The young man came back Later, when he saw that his daughter-in-law and daughter were dead, he killed his mother, and then hanged himself.”

The village chief touched his arm after finishing speaking: "It's unlucky, after this happened, no one in our village came forward, for fear of being killed by innocent souls or something."

The Cen family looked at each other with determination in their eyes: "Village chief, let's tell the truth, we have seen everything on the way of fleeing from famine, and we don't know how many times we have died. We are not afraid of dead people, we are afraid that we will change. become dead."

"We want this house, village chief, tell me the truth, how much money does this house cost?" When Mrs. Cen asked, she tried her best to control her trembling mouth.

The village chief thought about it: "Let's put it this way, the house is big, with eight houses, three yards, two firewood houses, and there are fields and a pool. It's decent. The guy bought it for 100 taels back then. But isn't this a special situation, and you are real relatives of the old dealer, so it's 50 taels, how about it?"

Granny Cen was moved as soon as she heard the introduction, she patted her legs and settled the table: "Success!"

Then he rubbed his hands together in embarrassment: "Village Chief, can I do it for you tomorrow?"

"to make."

Village head Ren walked away humming a tune with his hands behind his back.

Qi said: "I'm overjoyed, mother, this time I can put my heart in my stomach, and you have worked hard all the way, so I will prepare a few dishes, and don't take offense if the good ones are bad."

"Mother, I'll help you, don't tire you out." Mrs. Cen stretched out her hand.

"No, no, it'll be fine soon."

Before the dishes were ready, Mrs. Cen took out the marinated pheasants, hares, and wild meat and handed them to Mrs. Qi: "Mother, these are wild meats we hunted along the way. It's not a good thing, mother, don't dislike it."

Mrs. Qi was stunned. At a glance, it would cost twenty or thirty catties. You must know that in the countryside, you can't eat a few catties of meat all year round.

Cen Abao followed behind Mrs. Cen like a little tail: "Grandma, why didn't you give it when you first came in? Instead, give it now?"

The old lady Cen squatted down and wiped her dirty little face: "Just before you come in, your grandma Qi should be worried, whether to add this meat before cooking or not, how much for so many people?" , if this is added and we eat it, we don’t count it as giving it to others, isn’t it the same as letting someone cook it for us in disguise, and it’s sincerity to give it to us after the meal is cooked, don’t you know?”

This touched the little ferret's spiritual blind spot, eyes widened, and he gave a thumbs up: "Milk, atmosphere."

The cabbage stewed by the Qi family was warm and sweaty.

It was getting dark after eating, and Mrs. Cen didn't make it difficult for the Qi family: "Mother, there are so many of us, we can't live in the house, and we bother you to rest. In this way, we can make a bed in the courtyard, okay? We can deal with it all night. We'll be moving out tomorrow."

Mrs. Qi persuaded him for a long time to let him live in the house, but he couldn't live in the front yard either. What did the neighbors look like?

After thinking about it, he led them to the backyard.

At the order of the old lady Cen, Li Xiang and the others paved the meadow, and the Cen family lay side by side as if they were in the field, and waved to Cen Zhaojuan: "Go back to sleep, we sleep like this outside, it's cool , and spacious."

Hearing this, Cen Zhaojuan felt the pain of being gouged out, covered her mouth and ran out of the house crying, she wanted to talk to her mother-in-law.
