husband from hell

Chapter 97
Cheng Ke and I are guests, out of etiquette, there is no reason to open the door on behalf of the host. Hearing this voice, I hurriedly stood up, got up and went into the house to find the old woman to open the door.

Entering the house, I saw that it was gloomy and damp, and the ground was still a rare muddy place. When I looked up, I could see the beams of the house directly. There was no furniture in the house, only an earth kang with a straw mat, and a few Broken chairs with missing arms and legs, everything looks like old goods from a long time ago.

There are three rooms in the inner room, and the main room is empty. I looked around and saw a gap in a cupboard, so I walked over. Looking at me, I buried my whole face in the palm of my hand, not knowing what I was doing.

Strange...how did it get into the cabinet?
I hurried over, touched the old woman on the shoulder, and said, "Grandma, someone is knocking on the door!"

As a result, when I touched it, the old woman's body trembled as if she was frightened. When I turned around subconsciously, my eyes widened immediately, and I saw that the old woman's mouth was full of red blood!

The blood was still dripping from the corner of the old woman's drooping mouth, which looked very terrifying!
I couldn't help but took a step back, and then saw the old woman's hand, which seemed to be holding something, but the old woman quickly covered the thing in her hand, wiped her mouth, and her complexion suddenly changed. .

I collected myself, apologized quickly, and pointed outside again, gesturing to knock on the door.

Then the old woman stood up slowly, pointed to her mouth with her hand, and waved her hand.

What does it mean?Could it be that you told me not to tell this matter?Or... did she tell me not to take her food seriously?

No matter what it means, the old lady saved Luo Weilan's life and took us here. She didn't ask the bottom line, but it should be respected. I nodded quickly to show that I understood. XZ got up with the thing in his hand, and went out slowly.

This smell... That's right, it's the familiar smell of blood.

I looked carefully at the ground and saw that there was also a little dried blood on the ground.

What did she eat?
Everyone has everyone's privacy. After thinking about it, I decided it's better not to meddle in other people's business. It's really not right to stay in the master bedroom and look around, so I picked up my feet and followed the old woman out. up.

At this time, the sound of knocking on the door continued, and it was a drum-like sound with a clear rhythm, as if the people outside the door were taking pleasure in knocking on the door.

Cheng Ke's dark peach eyes swept across the door, and cast them on my face, with an expression like watching the excitement.

Cheng Ke, what did he see?

At this time, Luo Weilan suddenly moved slowly, and I hurried over. The old lady opened the door at this moment, and said "Yiyi oh oh" to the outside of the door. Listening to the Attitude, as if driving away people.

Moreover, the voice became louder and louder, as if the old woman was unhappy to refuse some excessive demands from outsiders, and it started to feel like a dispute.

I raised my head to take a look, but Cheng Ke's cold and slender hand grabbed me and shook his head.Out of the corner of the eye, he glanced at the door, but saw a dark thing clinging to the ground, and it swiped past. It looked a bit like a black dog running past.

Only then did the old woman close the door again, her face looked a little complicated, and she gestured for a long time, which should mean that we should not take things outside to heart.

It is impossible for a dog to knock on the door.

I hurriedly nodded to express my understanding.

Looking at Luo Weilan, it turned out that he just snorted like a dream just now, and he didn't really wake up. I touched Luo Weilan's skin that hadn't been covered with those ointments, and felt that the temperature was similar to mine, and there should be no sign of a fever. Class, probably will be cured soon.

Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't know where, a mouse ran over, shook his head, climbed up the jujube tree, and gnawed at the bark of the jujube tree, and after a while, the mouse suddenly " "Boom", it actually fell directly from the jujube tree!
Eh?I was a little surprised, but the old lady walked over and pointed at the jujube tree, which should mean that the mouse had landed on the jujube tree, damn it.

Then, I took a broom and a dustpan, and took the mouse away.

Through the hazy moonlight, I can see that this mouse is a bit skinny.

It was as if he hadn't eaten for a long time. Although his whole body was slender, it was very shriveled.

Strange... how come the mice here are malnourished?

Moreover, it can be seen that the mouse, like the bottom of the wall in every house, has a small circle of green yin.

I became suspicious, this mouse, it is impossible, the death has something to do with the jujube tree.

Before I had time to think about it, the moonlight was already covered by clouds, and with a gust of cold wind, tick-tock, it was going to rain!
These days when I came to Xichuan, it seems that I have been passing through all kinds of rainy days.

Since it's raining, of course we can't just let Luo Weilan lie outside, the old lady also gestured for us to carry Luo Weilan into the house.

I wanted to help, but Cheng Ke shook his head and said in a low voice, "Remember, if I can do it, I won't let you do it."

Simple words, but like a heavy promise, suddenly fell on my heart.

After entering the house, the old woman led Cheng Ke into the guest room, and after Luo Weilan settled down, the rain outside was getting heavier.

The old lady held up an umbrella and went out to collect things.

"This rainy season seems impossible to pass, maybe it really alarmed the five-legged toad god." I sighed: "The shop owner said that it never rained in autumn in Xichuan before."

Cheng Ke glanced at me, and said thoughtfully: "The owner of the shop said some nonsense, you really believe it."

"I can't take a joke, I will take everything seriously."

"I know," Cheng Ke said, "Fortunately, I never like to joke."

I sat next to Luo Weilan, looked at Luo Weilan's sleeping face, laughed a few times, picked up a topic at random, and said, "Actually... Luo Weilan really looks a bit like you, with such a nose, Such eyes..."

"Even if it's like...there is only one me in the world." Cheng Ke looked at me with big peach blossom eyes, "There is only one you."

I thought of many things, but didn't know what to say, so I nodded first: "You're right."

"Actually, there are some things and some guesses, it's better to say them out." Cheng Ke put my hands in his palms and said solemnly, "Isn't it?"

"I don't have any guesses." I said hastily, "I've been satisfied along the way."

"It's up to you..." Cheng Ke stretched out his hand and embraced me in his cold arms: "But, if you have something on your mind, I will feel sorry for you."

I knew what he meant, and leaning my head against his heartless chest, I wanted to cry inexplicably.

The longer the time, the more he didn't want to let go. He was like a swamp, stuck in it, and couldn't get out.

"That longevity..." I pursed my lips: "What kind of strange thing is it? If there is no such thing in the world, would it be better..."

"Longevity will always find it," Cheng Ke said: "When the time comes, where else will I go to seal it? I only listen to you. I still want to take you back to the restaurant in Xuanyindi to eat the food that can emerge from the bottom of the bowl. out of the face of the rose."

I remembered that bowl of noodles... It seemed that the rose that appeared only once indicated that I belonged to Cheng Ke, but Cheng Ke did not necessarily belong to me.

Calamus... who are you?

The sound of rain outside made me suddenly think of the day when the rain hit the hydrangeas. How can I lean against Cheng Ke like this and listen to the night rain?

One more time, one more time, the smell of sandalwood vaguely lingers in the nose, his embrace is the most stable place in the world, I am already very happy to be surrounded by him, isn't it?
Cheng Ke's perfectly shaped chin rested on my head, and said softly: "Not only the rain, not only the stars, I can also show you all the romantic events you want-as long as you want."

"Okay." I smiled: "Anything is fine."

I am willing, how could I not want to?As long as the person you want to accompany in your heart is really me.

I don't know when, I leaned into his arms and fell asleep.

In a daze, I felt a very soft thing sticking to my lips. I tasted it lightly, as if I was afraid of disturbing my eyes.

This feeling is cool and fragrant.

I didn't open my eyes.

So be it, so be it...

But in my sleep, I suddenly heard the sound of "Kach... Kacha...".

I opened my eyes and looked outside, only to see the old woman standing in the yard in the rain, picking dates?

Cheng Ke didn't sleep, just watched quietly from behind the window sill, turned his head and saw me, and frowned handsomely: "Did you wake up?"

I rubbed my eyes and said, "It's okay."

He also climbed up the window sill.

I saw the old woman picking the dates while humming something that seemed to be a happy song. After picking the dates, she took out a small box, dug up the soil under the date tree, and put the contents in the small box , and buried it under the roots of the tree like fertilizing.

My eyes, now looking at the things in the dark night, are actually very bright. It is an indescribable feeling. I can see clearly that the box of the old woman is exactly the egg in Luo Weilan's body during the day. the one.

Then, the old woman removed a stone under the jujube tree, and there was a small jar hidden under the stone. The old woman was pouring all the basket of dates into the small jar, and murmured: "I'm hungry... I'm hungry……"
