"Come on, come on, wipe your tears, little girl, don't cry all the time!" The dean handed over a tissue.
Haitang didn't answer and asked stubbornly, "Where is my sister?"
The dean held his forehead and said to Shao Zilong and me, "Oh, did you see that, the little girl is the most difficult to deal with."
As he spoke, he looked us up and down again, "You two are a little embarrassed, where did that come from?"
"We are not sick. Is it normal for you to look angry?" Shao Zilong asked.
"That makes sense." The dean nodded, "Then what are you two doing here?"
"I heard from Haitang that your place is very nice. Come and visit." I said with a smile.
The dean frowned and said to Haitang, "Didn't I tell you not to mention things here to outsiders?"
"We are not outsiders." Shao Zilong said.
The dean let out a sigh, looked at the two of us in surprise, nodded, and said, "So that's the case. That's quite reasonable. It's rare."
He suddenly said two words "rare", which sounded very abrupt at first, but after thinking about it carefully, the other person should be talking about the fact that Haitang has someone of her own, which is rare.
"Then you have visited, what do you think?" the dean asked.
"It's okay, it's quite exciting." I commented.
The dean laughed, "Very exciting? I like this evaluation, but it's a pity that I have to retire."
As he spoke, he sat on the chair, stretched out, and stretched his muscles.
"I heard that you and Haitang's father had known each other before, and were quite familiar with each other?" I suddenly changed the subject.
"Who said that?" the dean asked doubtfully, and looked at Haitang again, "Is that what you said?"
However, he didn't wait for Haitang to answer, and nodded directly, "Yes, we are old acquaintances."
"Did you really know my dad before?"
Although Haitang had already had this idea, she was still a little surprised when she heard the other party admit it with her own ears.
"I know you, why don't you?" the dean said angrily, "This guy is my half-disciple, how can I not recognize him?"
"Apprentice?" Haitang's eyes widened.
Not to mention her, even Shao Zilong and I were quite surprised when we suddenly heard each other's words.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm a half-disciple. The point is not the apprentice, the point is the half!" the dean emphasized.
Haitang was confused, "What do you mean?"
The dean shook his head and said, "This kid was originally following behind me to beat me. Later, I saw that this kid was quite smart, so I taught him some things casually. Do you think he is considered half a disciple? No, Not even half of it!"
"Then...then you used to be my father's boss?" Haitang asked.
The dean couldn't help but burst out laughing, "If you want to say that, that's fine."
"Then why doesn't my father work for you anymore?" Haitang continued to ask.
When the dean heard this, the smile disappeared from his face and he snorted coldly, "There is something wrong with this kid's brain. He insists on following me to this ungrateful place to eat shit!"
"Why do you want to come here to eat... eat farts?" Haitang asked in confusion.
Shao Zilong and I were almost not happy when we heard it.
"Well..." the dean coughed with a weird look on his face, "If he hadn't been so bad and was taken care of, who would be willing to come here to eat shit?"
"Who took care of you?" Shao Zilong asked after him.
The dean glared at him and said, "Young man, can you please speak more tactfully? Can you not poke someone's lung tube? It's an old thing, it doesn't matter if you don't mention it, don't mention it!"
"So you're always being driven here and become the director of a lunatic asylum?" I asked.
"Still poking!" the dean said angrily, "You young people are so shameless!"
"Who drove you here?" I continued to ask.
The dean had a gloomy look on his face, "Can we still chat? If we can't, get out of here!"
"Where is my sister?" Haitang started to ask again.
The dean held his forehead and said, "Little ancestor, can you stop talking about it? I owe you father and daughter? One by one, they are looking for trouble!"
"What happened to Haitang's parents?" I was interrupted.
"You ask me, how do I know?" The dean rolled his eyes, then frowned and yelled at the left and right, "What are you still doing here? Get off!"
The four nurses in white had been standing there with their heads lowered since they entered the room, as motionless as four candlesticks. At this moment, they heard the dean scold them and finally moved.
The four people put the candles on the table, and then one by one, they filed out of the room, walked through the corridor, and disappeared into the darkness.
"Do you still need to ask?" The dean glanced at Haitang and said angrily, "This kid took advantage of me not paying attention and got together with her mother, and soon her belly got bigger. What do you think we can do?"
At this point, it is actually quite clear.
Haitang's father is a migrant and knows the secrets of Shimen Village, but he accidentally met Haitang's mother, got married and had a daughter.
This also confirms our previous speculation.
"So you are also responsible for guarding Shimen Village?" I asked.
"What Shimen Village, Guimen Village?" The dean rolled his eyes, "I only care about this three-acre land, what does the rest have to do with me, a retired old man?"
"Then you should know what's going on in Shimen Village, right?" I continued to ask.
The other party glanced at us, shook his head and said, "You young people just don't understand the truth. Don't you know that curiosity killed the cat? Why do you know so much?"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe our cats are more ferocious?" Shao Zilong said with a smile.
The dean laughed, "Back then, the young man and his wife thought they were special. But what happened? Didn't they both drown in the river?"
Shao Zilong and I looked at Haitang hurriedly.
I had actually wanted to ask about this just now, but because of Haitang's feelings, I didn't ask directly. I didn't expect that the other party would tell her the truth.
"Don't cry!" the dean scolded with a stern face.
Haitang's face was pale, but she really didn't cry. She was stunned for a long time and asked, "Uncle Dean, my parents... what happened to them?"
Hearing Haitang call him "Uncle Dean", the other party was slightly startled, his fierce expression suddenly softened, and he was silent for a while.
"Since you have brought trouble to Shimen Village, you should know something, right?" the dean asked slowly, but he did not wait for our answer, and continued, "That poor village is just a pig farm. field."
"Since it's a pig farm, can the pigs you raise in it allow you to escape at will? Either they stay in the pig pen or they are slaughtered. Is that right?"
Neither Shao Zilong nor I answered the call.
It was obvious that the dean knew a lot of things. Although it sounded unpleasant, it was the real situation in Shimen Village.
