Tomb Keeper

Chapter 35
When I heard this, my heart moved a bit, because there was a driver named Diao in the newspaper office where I was, and he was transferred to some group company after working for two months.Of course he doesn't know me, but I remember him because of his surname, which reminds people of Diao Deyi in the old model opera, so when I heard someone calling him Master Diao in the newspaper office, I had an impression of him.

I wanted to ask what Master Diao looked like.But the words stopped, because if Ms. Yuan asked me if you knew him, I couldn't answer.So I changed my mind and said, since the family parked the car at home, why didn't you ask Master Diao to take you to visit the grave, so as to save you from taking the shuttle bus all the way.

She said, I don't need it.When I work in other people's homes, I never mention my child's affairs, and they don't know where the child is buried.You know the story of Mrs. Xianglin, her child was taken away by wolves, and she talked about the child all the time when she was working in other people's homes, but it made others disgusted and bored.I don't want to be Xianglin's sister-in-law, as long as the mother's pain and the child's pain are in my heart.

Next, I asked about the circumstances of the child's burial, hoping to find clues about why Yang Huzi was afraid of little ghosts.However, her answer was very simple, she only said that she had no relatives in the provincial capital, so she came alone for the child's burial.She said that there was a heavy fog on the mountain on the day of the burial, and it didn't clear until the morning.After she buried her child, she only had one feeling, that is, people are not too real from birth to death.

At this time, a long-distance bus has already driven to the entrance of the town.She got up quickly and said, I'm leaving.I watched her go farther and farther away. Suddenly, she turned around and yelled at me again. It seemed to mean thank you for taking care of her child’s grave. The wind blew away her voice.

On the way back to the cemetery, dusk gradually rose.From time to time, rushing farmers passed me from behind, and soon disappeared in front of me.I realized that I was walking slowly, that I was thinking something, but when I tried to say it, I felt like I had nothing to say.

By the time we got to the cemetery, it was already dark.I suddenly saw the leaves facing me standing on the road ahead.When I walked up to her, she asked preemptively, where have you been?I can't find you for dinner.I can only say, I went to Xihe Town.I want to buy a book to read when I have nothing to do at night, but after browsing the bookstore, I can't find a suitable book.Originally, the moment I saw her standing on the road, I wanted to tell her the truth about Ms. Yuan's visit to the tomb, because this matter had nothing to do with her, but only with Yang Huzi's fear of little ghosts.And when I first came to the cemetery, Ye Zi told me that among the people here, only Yang Huzi and Zhou Ma were abnormal, but my analysis later concluded that she was distracting my attention.Now that everyone is on alert, I decided I had to make some packages of my whereabouts as well.

After Ye Zi heard what I said, you are not going to buy books, are you?I must have gone to Zihua's place, and I ate dinner at her place, with meat and delicious wild vegetables, right?

I said, if you don’t believe what I say, you can think whatever you want.But, my stomach is still hungry, is there still my meal in the kitchen?

Then she returned to her normal tone and said, Mother Zhou saved all the food for you.I went out for a walk after eating, otherwise I would gain weight.

Out for a walk this far, I've never seen it before.It's just that I don't want to expose her thoughts. She came this way just to confirm whether I came back from Xihe Town.

The relationship between me and Ye Zi has been uncertain since I got here, and I can't understand which of us is responsible for it.It was late at night that day, and the relationship between Ye Zi and I had suddenly dissipated again.

At that time, I was about to go back to the house to rest. When I went upstairs, I saw Ye Zi standing at the turn of the stairs in the attic. She made a gesture to me to let me go upstairs.I think the reason why she gestures is that she is afraid of being heard by others.

I went into the attic and into her room.She sat down at the desk and remained silent.Suddenly, I saw tears streaming from her, so I hurriedly asked, what happened?
She said that Yang Huzi told me just now that he would transfer me to work at the company headquarters.I said I'm not going.He said that going to work in the city is much better than guarding the cemetery.I said I didn't like the city.He said, think again.But this matter is being discussed with the company. If the company agrees and issues a transfer order, you have to leave if you don't.

It happened so suddenly.I understand that this is the village chief's idea.In order for his son to be freed from the charm after three months, he initially wanted to ask the eminent monk of Mount Emei to drive away the ghost attached to Ye Zi. After I analyzed this matter, Yang Huzi must have been opposed by Yang Huzi.So, the village head made another move.This time, Yang Huzi didn't discuss with me, probably because he felt that this method was feasible and would not have much impact on the cemetery.

But Ye Zi's resolute attitude in refusing this matter, as well as the uncomfortable thought of leaving here reminded me of her life experience and the reason she came to the cemetery.Because if she hadn't shouldered the mission of serving ghosts and saving her father here, going to work in the city would make anyone happy.At this moment, I suddenly found the reason why the relationship between me and Ye Zi was uncertain.That's because I didn't completely dispel my suspicions about her.As long as a person doesn't trust another person, that person will be wary of you in turn.The reason is so simple, but I have never understood it.

Be honest and start with me.So, I told Ye Zi all about the village head's tricks on her.Ye Zi's eyes widened and he kept saying, what should I do?what to do?
I thought about it and said, there is a way.As far as I know when drinking with Yang Huzi, although he has no parents, he is a very filial person. This may be formed by the reaction force of his desire to be filial but unable.In this case, you might as well tell him the real reason why you are here to guard the grave, I think this will move him and make him cancel your decision to go to the city.As for what kind of tricks the village chief will give him in the future, we will deal with it when we see what we do.

There was joy on Ye Zi's face.She also told me frankly that the real reason why I came here to guard the tomb, the reason why I didn't tell anyone, was because I was afraid that others would say that I was feudal and superstitious.I told you that time because I realized that you have been doubting me.I know you are thinking in your heart, such a girl who has read many books, why is she guarding the tomb here?So, I have to tell you the real reason.Now, I will do as you said, but I don't know if Yang Huzi can understand.Also, I don't know if he can withstand the pressure put on him by the village head.

I said, take one step at a time.In fact, the root cause of this matter is the second brother Luo. Why do you think he is so obsessed with you?
Ye Zi said, I also feel strange about this.Maybe, the reason is in the previous life, no one will know.

I also said, there is nothing wrong with Second Brother Luo, why do you hate him so much?
She said that the reasons for hating or liking a person cannot be found in this life, and there is no way to do it.Also, during the three years I served the ghosts and gods here, according to the rules, I was not allowed to talk about love.

Talking to Ye Zi tonight has kept me in a faint excitement, because we have trusted each other and talked to each other.However, what she said at the end, "It is not allowed to talk about love within three years", made me fall into disappointment all of a sudden.Although she didn't say this to me, my disappointment showed how much I loved her.Yes, deep love, needless to say, from the time I first came here and held hands with her on the cemetery, this kind of seed has sprouted, until recently I saved her from the ball, if only the courage of the special forces And without the power of love, can I think of a wonderful way to cut off the power and save the scene in an instant?But at this moment, the word "no" she said lingered in my mind like a swarm of bees, making me a little dizzy.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.Both Ye Zi and I were shocked.Leaf asked, who?The answer outside the door said, I.It was my younger brother's voice.

Ye Zi opened the door, and the younger brother stood at the door and said, Yang Huzi asked you to go down for a while, he was still in the yard to enjoy the shade, and said he wanted to see you.

I noticed that the younger brother was not timid when he spoke for the first time, and he didn't blush when facing Ye Zi.I thought to myself, why did this kid grow up all of a sudden?Of course, his state doesn't make me happy, maybe I'm used to that timid little brother.

After the younger brother passed the message, he turned back and went downstairs.Ye Zi asked me nervously, what did he want me to do again?I said, maybe he has changed his mind, maybe he wants to continue persuading you, it's okay, just adapt to the circumstances after you go down.If he continues to persuade, you should follow the method I told you.

Ye Zi and I walked out of the door, and Ye Zi locked the door with a "click".The sound of the lock made me think that I had wanted to sneak into this room to check it out, but now that I think about it, I am not a friend enough.And I still think I am in love with her, did two people fall in love like this?Of course, this can't be all my fault, it's just that the graveyard is too dizzy.
