midnight snake language

Chapter 48
Yun Xiao glanced at me, got up and said to my mother: "Weiwei and I are married..."

I hurriedly interrupted him: "Let my mother forget about this scene!"

Yun Xiao was puzzled.

My mother was already rushing in front of me, I pulled Yun Xiao's hand hard: "Hurry up!"

Yun Xiao had no choice but to raise her hand, and my mother's figure stopped in place, and her expression was no longer as angry as before.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and heard Yun Xiao ask a little aggrieved: "Am I just so shameless?"

It took me a long time to comfort him. I was afraid that Yunxiao would emo again, so I quickly shook my head: "No, no, no, it has nothing to do with you, it's because of me."

My mother paid close attention to my studies. Once at a parent meeting, I heard that a classmate in our class had a puppy love and his grades dropped. She was afraid that the person was me, so she went home and questioned me for a long time.

It wasn't until I called the teacher to confirm that this matter had nothing to do with me, who was the oldest, that she breathed a sigh of relief and warned me that if I dared to abandon my studies and fall in love with a puppy, she would break my leg.

I know she won't really break my leg, but the psychological shadow has been left, and it won't go away for a while.

After hearing this, Yun Xiao suppressed her nervousness and asked, "Then have you ever been in love?"

Shouldn't you care about my frightened weak heart first?

The old monster's mind is full of the sour smell of love, I gave him a blank look: "No, are you satisfied?"

The corners of Yun Xiao's mouth curled up slightly, she pursed her lips and nodded.

……

We were lucky, because the number of tourists here increased, and a travel agency opened a special tour bus to and from the town, which happened to be able to take us back.

It was dark when we got home.My mother was not happy to cook, so she took me to a nearby noodle shop to make up for it.

Because I often come here to eat, the proprietress of the noodle shop is familiar with us, so she gave me an extra piece of deep-fried pork ribs, and asked mysteriously: "Weiwei, something strange happened in your family these days, do you know?"

Yun Xiao lives on my forehead, how can I not know?
I silently chewed on the big row without making a sound. The proprietress thought I didn’t know, and continued to tell a ghost story: “Your house has always made strange noises these days. Neighbors also said there was that sound coming from there."

Hey, the proprietress is talking about my home in town?
I wanted to ask clearly, but my mother interrupted her unhappily: "Cheng Jing, don't add fuel to the picture. We are not at home these days. If there is any movement at home, it must be a thief. Don't you know to call the police for us?"

"What's the use of calling the police? How much is that thing in your house worth?"

Our family is not so poor, right?

Seeing that my mother and I were in a bad mood, the proprietress smiled and said, "That's not what I meant, it's just this kind of thing. You guys have to be careful when you go home today."

The house in our town is a small two-story building with a store fronting the street on the first floor.If such a house is rented out alone, the monthly rent will be quite a lot. Logically speaking, it can fully support our family.

But our family has a bit of a back, as long as we want to rent out the store, something will happen.

At first, the owner who rented the shop suddenly went bankrupt. Later, during the renovation, the decoration worker fell on the ground and was injured. In the end, a customer even had a dispute with the shop assistant and almost died in the shop.

After we got there, it was rumored in the town that our shop was evil, and no one dared to rent our shop.

Now the first half of the first floor is a small shop opened by my dad himself, and the back is a small warehouse, kitchen and dining room.The second floor is the bedroom and bathroom of our family of three.

I haven't come back for a few days, and a thick layer of dust has accumulated in the house.

My mother went to open the window to ventilate, and complained: "Your dad really asked him to check the doors and windows before leaving, but the window on the first floor was so wide that he didn't know how to close it. Fortunately, it is our own backyard outside, and no one can see it."

Because the windows are open, there is no stale smell in the house.But I don't know if it's my illusion, I always feel that there is a strange smell.

"Mom, do you feel a fishy smell?" I asked.

"Hey, I threw a dead fish in the trash can before I went out, and I forgot to throw it out!" My mother hurriedly ran to the kitchen, and after a while she went out with a smelly trash bag.

But I can still smell the fishy smell, and it doesn't smell like dead fish.

There won't be another snake, will it?

I picked up the broom and checked all the places where snakes might be hiding, but found nothing, so I had to fetch water and clean the house first.

My mother is in charge of the upstairs and I clean the downstairs.

When I wiped the edge of the window sill, I found that the dust here was uneven, as if something had been dragged.

This is the window my dad forgot to close, so there won't be anything crawling in from the outside, right?
The backyard is small, and you can see the side at a glance. On the left is the dirt land, and a peach tree that only blooms but does not bear fruit is planted, and on the right is a concrete land, where some sundries are piled up.

There are weeds growing under the peach trees, and my dad would have weeded them after my grandma’s funeral.But now the weeds are in a mess, as if they have been trampled on by something.

Damn, there must be something taking advantage of no one in our house has been in the yard, just don't know if it has entered the house or not.

I checked the house again to make sure that there was no weird thing XZ in the dark before I dared to go back to my room to sleep.

The weather was hot, I turned on the air conditioner, and slept until midnight, feeling chilly. I dazedly touched the remote control to turn off the air conditioner. When I touched a cold arm, I woke up suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Yun Xiao's voice sounded above my head, and I recognized him, and I was relieved, and hugged him back into the air-conditioning quilt: "It's cold."

Yun Xiao's body began to warm up, I patted him gently: "You don't need to change your mind, I'll just turn off the air conditioner." When I looked up, I found that the air conditioner indicator light on the wall was not on, and realized that the air conditioner It was turned off by the timer I set.

Where did the coolness come from?

Yun Xiao guessed my thoughts and explained: "There is something outside."

There was a rustling sound outside the window, like the sound of scales rubbing against weeds, and then I heard a woman's voice.

The voice sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was at the moment, so I asked Yun Xiao in a low voice, "Who is outside?"

"I don't know." Yun Xiao didn't care about it at all, "Sleep, I'll watch over you."

The woman outside the window made a strange groan, and I was a little worried: "Is nothing wrong?"

"Nothing will happen." Yun Xiao supported her head with one hand, lay on my side, and gently stroked my face.I still have his mana in my left eye, and I can clearly see the hidden emotion in Yun Xiao's eyes.

In the middle of the night, I was really worried that something might happen, so I got up and walked to the window, raised a corner of the curtain, and planned to call the police to rescue people at any time.
