Records of Strange People and Strange Events in the Old Mansion

Chapter 119 Block

Uncle Liu and Uncle Lu saw that Zhu Badger had left the ancestral hall and not returned, so they came to the front yard to look for her. They found that the door of the main house was closed, and the two small dogs and two pig badgers who were guarding them actually barked at them, preventing them from letting the two of them in. As he approached, he knew that something must have happened, and it was not a trivial matter, so he hurriedly returned to the ancestral hall.

As soon as I arrived at the door of Tian Laizi's house, I heard the barking and howling of thin dogs and pig badgers, as well as Huang Doujiang's scolding: "I've blinded your dog eyes and pig eyes. You just saw me shaking my head and wagging my tail." , why do you suddenly turn your back on me?"

Uncle Liu and Lu Bo heard Zhu Badger's reply: "Sister-in-law Huang, you were not a human just now, so my dog ​​and badger shook their heads and tails at you."

"What do you mean? You must explain it to me." Huang Doujiang's voice sounded aggressive. Sure enough, when Uncle Liu and Lu Bo walked to the Zhu Fan House and looked at the door of the ancestral hall, Huang Doujiang was standing in front of the threshold with his hands on his hips. . Since Huang Doujiang was standing facing the ancestral hall, Uncle Liu and Lu Bo could not see her face, but they could imagine her arrogance at this moment.

Ever since she came back with the weasel's urn for burial, Huang Doujiang has been staying at home, as if she was a different person before. At Qingming Festival, I went up to the mountains to pick tea leaves. But he always just picked tea leaves and never talked to his neighbors, not even to the day lily.

The villagers thought that the weasel died suddenly in an accident. It is understandable that Huang Doujiang was sad and unable to recover.

What happened today? Why is he suddenly resurrected with full health and starting to curse? The person scolding was none other than Zhu Badger. Scolding Zhu Badger at the entrance of the ancestral hall is not a small matter, it is a big matter, and there must be something fishy in it.

Uncle Liu and Lu Bo wanted to go over and ask, but Zhu Badger gestured to them from the opposite side, telling them not to go there, so they stood at the door of Zhu Shanzi's house and watched.

"Sister-in-law Huang, don't you understand what I mean? You, on the other hand, must explain to me clearly, why are you sneaking into the ancestral hall?" Zhu Badger spoke equally aggressively.

Huang Doujiang's hands on her hips were instead pointing at Zhu Badger, and she cursed Zhu Badger in a manly voice: "Eight Badger Immortals, who do you think you are? Is the ancestral hall just your family's ancestral hall? Can't I even pass by the ancestral hall?"

"Passing by the ancestral hall? If you just pass by the ancestral hall, my dogs and badgers won't send signals to me. Do you think it's okay if they shake their heads and tails at you? They are confusing you to see what you want to do next? What a pity. I came out too early." The three thin dogs and three pig badgers standing at Zhu Badger's feet glared at Huang Doujiang.

Huang Doujiang was not afraid and sneered twice: "Badger Immortals, it seems that you are really beasts and beasts and can communicate with them. Let me tell you, today is Okra's father's birthday, and my Okra will be back soon. , came back to celebrate her father’s birthday, and also came back with important figures from the province and county. They brought people from the theater troupe to perform in the ancestral hall for her father. "

"Don't even think about it. As long as I'm still alive, from today on, no outsiders will be able to enter the old house or the ancestral hall." Zhu Badger said and blew a loud whistle. The three thin dogs and three pig badgers standing at her feet simultaneously "ouched." "" and threw herself at Huangdoujiang. Huangdoujiang spread her legs and ran back to her home with a "Mom!" At the same time, in addition to the two thin dogs and two pig badgers that guarded the old house owner's house, the other four thin dogs and four pig badgers rushed to Zhu Badger's side and listened to Zhu Badger's instructions.

Zhu Badger greeted Uncle Liu and Lu Bo to enter the ancestral hall and closed the door of the ancestral hall. He led six of the eight thin dogs and six of the eight pig badgers to the back door of the old house.

It was approaching noon, and the villagers who went to the mountains to pick tea leaves did not come back for lunch. The whole village was quiet, and the old house was even quieter. There was no sound in Zhu Fanzi's room who had been drinking "drink, drink, drink". I wonder if he was drunk and fell asleep? Or did the badgers lock their doors and not dare to complain anymore?

The red badger was too lazy to pay attention to them anymore. He sat on the back threshold and leaned against the door frame with his eyes half open and half closed to concentrate. Six thin dogs and six pig badgers were squatting neatly three outside and three inside the threshold, highly alert.

The weather in Lvbuo Village during the Qingming Festival is very changeable. Yesterday it was so hot that you could wear short-sleeves, but today it is so cold that you need to wear a cotton-padded jacket. It was sunny just now, but now it is covered with dark clouds and it looks like it will rain. Even if it rains heavily, the villagers who go to the mountains to pick tea leaves cannot come back. They put on their hats and raincoats and continue picking tea leaves, because the seasons wait for no one, and the growth of tea leaves waits for no one. Today it is still a bud, but tomorrow it will be a bud. It became a big green leaf and could not be made into tea in the cup.

Farming is when the weather goes well with the weather. Farming when the weather goes against the weather is not real farming. Without God’s care and test, there will be no joy of harvest and a healthy appetite. Vegetables grown in greenhouses can be harvested according to the seasons. Does it compare to vegetables grown in the open air? This is what Uncle Liu said, and Zhu Badger thinks it makes sense.

In a daze, Xin Quan and Pig Badger stood up at the same time and began to breathe. Zhu Badger quickly opened his eyes completely and saw a large group of people approaching from the direction of Taiping Pond along the wall. Zhu Badger motioned to Xi Quan and Zhu Badger. The badger remained calm and continued to relax with his eyes half-closed.

As the footsteps approached, Huang Okra's voice sounded in front of Zhu Badger: "Hey, Badger Eight Immortals, what are you doing sitting here?"

Zhu Badger pretended not to hear, closed his eyes completely and dozed off.

"Hey, you guys come here and pull her away." Huang Qiukui called.

A man asked Huang Qiukui: "Whose child is this? Why is he sitting on the doorstep at such an old age?" "A neighbor's child." Huang Qiukui answered.

Another man asked Huang Qiukui: "Is her family still very poor? This skinny person is wearing such shabby clothes. Could it be that she is sick or mentally abnormal?" Open her up." Huang Qiukui's voice sounded a little impatient.

There was a burst of fierce footsteps, followed by the barking of a thin dog and the howling of a pig and badger. The fierce footsteps turned into messy footsteps, and then the sounds of crying father and mother turned into panicked footsteps.

The panicked footsteps got farther and farther, and the barking of thin dogs and the howling of pigs and badgers stopped. After a while, Huang Okra's voice sounded from the other end of the wall: "Mother, mother, come out and pick me up."

Huang Okra's voice was obviously panicked, and her tongue was obviously knotted. Huang Doujiang's voice was even more panicked than Huang Okra's. She probably ran to the persimmon tree of her husband's squinting mother-in-law's house to respond to Huang Okra, but she just shouted: "Mom, there's nothing I can do..." and fled back to her home with a "Mom!" , Zhu Badger could imagine her embarrassment from the footsteps of her escaping home. She must have been chased by the two thin dogs and two pig badgers guarding the main house.

After a while, a sound of footsteps came from far away, and Zhu Badger recognized that the footsteps came from three men.

The three men did not walk directly in front of Zhu Badger, but paused for a while about four or five meters away from Zhu Badger, and then slowly approached Zhu Badger. But he did not really approach Zhu Badger. He was more than two meters away from Zhu Badger and successively said to Zhu Badger: "Are you the Eight Badger Immortals? We are people from the town. Get out of the way." "If you don't get out of the way, We have to take measures against you. "The people here today are all respectable people. Don't go your own way. You are also a cultured person."

There was a brief silence, but Zhu Badger didn't respond. They continued: "What do you mean? Your family doesn't own the old house." "I tell you, we can definitely arrest you and take you to the town." "We won't have any choice then. If you act recklessly, I might imprison you for a few years."

Zhu Badger still didn't open his eyes, let alone speak, and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

After a while, a man with heavy footsteps approached Zhu Badger. Zhu Badger could feel that he was still a man. This man deliberately stepped very hard.

The man coughed a few times before speaking, and then said slowly: "Girl, are you deaf or mute? I tell you clearly that you have been suspected of obstructing official duties and we can detain you."

Zhu Badger still didn't open his eyes or speak.

The man shouted: "Come here, kill these dogs and beasts first."

A burst of chaotic footsteps went straight to Zhu Badger's ears, and Zhu Badger stood up with a "boo" sound.

"Who dares?" Zhu Badger shouted louder than the man, her big black eyes glaring at the people who rushed towards her.

The man spoke: "Are you neither deaf nor mute? We have already reminded you and warned you. It is you who are arrogant and lawless. It is no wonder that we are executed!"

Following the man's "execute" call, a dozen burly men in black suits rushed over with sticks to beat the thin dogs and pig badgers. Zhu Badger took a few steps forward and said loudly: "If you can, beat me to death first."

"Oh, you are quite brave. Why are you still standing there? Arrest her first." The man saw a dozen strong men standing in front of Zhu Badger and did not dare to make a move, so he shouted loudly. Zhu Badger didn't wait for a dozen burly men to take action, and asked the man sternly: "What is your surname and name? What is your position? Who in the world gives you such majesty in broad daylight?"

"You?" When the man heard Zhu Badger ask this, he was stunned for a moment, but immediately asked Zhu Badger: "What qualifications do you have to ask me like this?"

"I ask you as an ordinary citizen, as an ordinary villager in Donkeybu Village, and even more in the name of the people." Zhu Badger was calm and composed.

The man was silent for a while and said, "We don't actually want to do anything to you? As Boss Huang's friends, we just advise you to give in."

"Boss Huang's friend? As your friend, didn't she tell you? The old house does not allow any outsiders to enter. I will naturally give way to her if she enters alone." Zhu Badger replied.

The man turned back to a tall man and said, "Go and ask Boss Huang to come over."

Soon Huang Okra came to Zhu Badger, raised her eyebrows and asked Zhu Badger: "What? Don't you dare to stop me?"

"Of course I won't stop you when you go home. Please come in." Zhu Badger stepped aside.

Huang Qiukui walked into the old house with her head held high, but she immediately realized something was wrong. When she looked back, she saw Zhu Badger sitting on the threshold again. She blocked all those people from the door. She wanted to come over to question Zhu Badger, but a thin dog came over and grabbed her by the mouth. She didn't dare to move her pants, so she had to ask Zhu Badger in a flattering tone: "Fairy, what do you want?"

"What do I want? Go back and ask your mother." Zhu Badger did not look back.

Just when Huang Qiukui was about to ask again, Huang Doujiang ran out of the house in a hurry, but did not dare to get too close to Huang Qiukui. She stood in front of Zhu Fanzi's house and said to Huang Qiukui: "She said that from today on, no outsiders can enter the old house or the ancestral hall."

"The Eight Badger Immortals? What right do you have to prevent outsiders from entering the old house and entering the ancestral hall?" Huang Qiukui asked, looking at Zhu Badger's back.

Zhu Badger ignored Huang Qiukui, but said to the people standing in front of her: "Everyone, I know that you are all people with status, so it is necessary to tell you the truth to prevent you from making mistakes, and to prevent some people from knowing the law and breaking the law. Ruined his bright future.”

"Badger Immortals, don't be alarmist. Everyone, don't listen to her nonsense, she is crazy." Huang Okra forgot that a small dog was holding her trouser legs. As soon as she cursed "crazy", the small dog grabbed her. The legs of her pants dragged her several steps, scaring her so much that she kept shouting "Oh my god!" Huang Doujiang, who was standing at the door of Zhu Fanzi's house, responded repeatedly but did not dare to take more than half a step.

"Girl, you'd better let your dog let Boss Huang go. It's not a good idea to kill someone." The man's attitude obviously changed.

Zhu Badger ignored Huang Qiukui. She knew that Xi Quan was just scaring her, and faced those people calmly and said: "Everyone, the old house belongs to the cultural heritage site, and is now being declared for national security. In the past few days, the cultural relics experts who have come down from the top are in our old house. The house is counting cultural relics day and night. It is at a critical moment, so outsiders are not allowed to enter. I hope you can understand. "

"Oh, that's it. Boss Huang, you should make it clear to us." The man was about to turn around and leave.

Huang Qiukui shouted hurriedly: "Don't leave, don't leave, don't listen to her nonsense, she is completely crazy, there is no such thing, there is no such thing."

"There's no such thing?" "What's that going on?" Uncle Liu and Lu Bo appeared next to Zhu Badger with fluttering long robes, completely ignoring Huang Okra's existence.

When the man saw Uncle Liu and Lu Bo, he smiled and said, "Who are these two old men?"

"Are we that old?" "We should still be very young, right?" Uncle Liu and Lu Bo did not answer directly, but Haha flew up to the back door of the old house and stroked the drapes on both sides. .

This time, not only did the man turn pale with fright, but all the people present took several steps back unconsciously.

"I didn't know that the immortal was here. I offended you so much. Please forgive me." The man reacted and raised his head to bow to Uncle Liu and Lu Bo with his fists in hand.

Uncle Liu and Lu Bo laughed loudly. After laughing for a while, they said in unison: "Fairy? It's the fairy you offended."

"Yes, yes, hello, Fairy. It's only our fault that we didn't know. We apologize to you." The man turned to Zhu Badger and clasped his fists in a bow.

Zhu Badger smiled faintly and said: "I am a deaf mute woman with nothing to offend. If you really want to apologize, you should invite your adult to come over."

"You? How do you know there are adults?" The man looked at Zhu Badger with wide eyes and doubts for a while, then loudly asked Huang Qiukui: "Boss Huang, you are also a respectable person, why don't you understand the rules and are not strict with your mouth?"

"I, I, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't say anything. I just sent someone to inform my mother that people from the province and county were coming. I didn't say anything else. I didn't say anything more. This is the rule. I still understand, how could I just tell anyone about the adults' visit?"

"Hey, Huang Okra, didn't you say that?" Zhu Badger turned back and smiled at Huang Okra.

"Badger Badger, are you cheating on me? I will never go around you again today." Huang Qiukui was furious and wanted to rush over to beat the badger, but a thin dog tightly held her pants in its mouth, and she was isolated in the old house again. Inside the back door of the house, it is difficult to sing with a single palm.

Zhu Badger turned around and said to the man: "If you adults can't see the light, you'd better go back quickly. It's going to rain heavily today. Of course, before you go back, I have to explain the situation clearly. Hey, I came here just now. Are the three people who are scaring me from the town? You should listen carefully and see if you arrest me and lock me up in the town for a few days, or if I go to the top and sue you, let you go home and plant sweet potatoes."

Seeing the three people in the town looking at each other, not wanting to be angry but not being angry, Zhu Badger continued: "You said that the old house is not owned by our family, so what right do I have to deny you entry? I am telling you clearly here that the old house is still It is really owned by our family, and I am the sole owner of the old house, as evidenced by the land deed.”

"I'm sorry, Ms. Zhu Badger, they don't understand the situation and are very offended. Let's take our leave." The man turned around and wanted to leave.

Zhu Badger went over and stopped the man: "Stop, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Didn't you remind us that it's going to rain heavily and tell us to go back quickly?" The man looked very anxious.

Zhu Badger smiled and said: "Did your master send you a message to leave quickly? But I haven't made the situation clear yet, so you can't leave."

"Ms. Zhu Badger, I'm aware of the situation. Please give way." The man wanted to push Zhu Badger away.

Zhu Badger stood still and asked the man sternly: "You already know the situation? Are you really clear? Do you know why the three of them dared to say such things just now? Do you know why Huang Okra invited you?" You must speak clearly today, otherwise no one will be able to leave.”
