In Chifu's room.
She was holding her mobile phone, but she wasn't very good at operating it yet.
She had just registered something called WeChat with the help of Po Nu, and the only friends on her list were Wang Xilou and Feng Wuli.
Chifu was a little curious in her heart. She actually knew something about this mobile phone. After all, she had been wandering outside for decades and was not completely out of touch with society.
It’s just that she is not as receptive as Po Nu. Po Nu has no money because he is burdened with the curse of bad luck. She has no money because her brain is not very good.
Her wandering was more like that of an ascetic. She worked in a black factory, moved goods at a dock, joined a pyramid scheme, and was taken to a ravine by a prostitute.
She always has a serious look on her face every time, with an expression that says "I don't want to mess with you", and then she gets cheated out of nowhere. You don't have to worry about your personal safety, but you don't have any money left. In recent years, public security has gotten better and better, and the environment has also improved. With each passing day, no one lied to her anymore, and there were not many illegal factories. She went to work and no one wanted her, so she came back.
She was now looking at the message, "You have added Feng Wuli and you can start chatting now."
chat?
Why is she talking to him?
But here it showed that he wanted her to chat with him, so there was nothing she could do about it. She didn't want to talk to him, she just listened to what this thing said.
But what to say to him.
I have nothing to say to him!
The frown on Chifugi's cute face deepened. He held the phone with both hands and looked at the chat interface in deep thought.
After a long while, she used the handwriting input method to send a message.
Chifu: Good evening
For a minute or two, she concentrated on looking at the screen of her phone, but there was always only her message at the top.
"You're not scary at all." Po Nu sneered.
"Nonsense! What I said was so scary, you were scared to death by me!"
"It's a mess, it doesn't make sense, it's scary."
I don’t know why Po Nu and that stupid cat are so crazy tonight. They insist on crowding into her and Wanwan’s room. The two idiots and the cute Wanwan are telling scary stories, and they come one at a time.
Fortunately, the bed in this room is big enough. It was made by a pure carpenter. It is an antique bed and can sleep two people. It can also squeeze in two small animals.
It's a wooden bed made by Wang Sanxi.
That kid is also dead of old age.
Archagi flipped through his memory.
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy who was so hungry that he was dizzy was lying in front of the incense paper shop. The door of the incense paper shop opened, and the woman as gentle as the water of the Xiang River came out. It was early spring at that time.
Those who celebrate the Chinese New Year, don’t die in front of my house.
Zombies will also feel very unlucky.
The man suddenly got up, which startled her, and he started to practice Wing Chun, which he had just learned recently.
It turns out he’s not dead.
What are you talking about? Please speak louder. You can't even hear it.
Want something to eat?
There is nothing to eat at home, and the rice vat seems to be empty. How about this? I will give you some money and help me buy a bag of rice from Xu Ji in the east of the city.
Wang Xilou watched the little beggar walk away.
People in the neighborhood said that Xiao Wang has become a good old man again, why are you so kind-hearted? The little zombie laughed and said that it was okay, and his life was not easy.
She also thought that this little beggar would be like the others, take the money and run away never to come back again.
In the evening, she opened the door, and there was another young man lying in front of the door like in the morning.
Their postures were exactly the same as in the morning, with their arms stretched out facing the ground, as if they had expired from exhaustion.
Just a bag of rice next to me.
She crossed her chest and leaned against the door frame and shook her head. She felt that this person was stupid and didn't run away quickly after taking the money.
In the past five hundred years, Wang Xilou has indeed met many people, including ordinary people, practitioners, immortals, and monsters.
There are also people like Wang Sanxi who have been taken in by her for a period of time. Most of them will eventually leave the incense shop and become her alone again. Others ask her why she has been
Staying here, she just said she was waiting for someone.
Wang Sanxi has lived here for more than twenty years. That spring noon, he looked at himself in the mirror. His youthful appearance had long since faded. Now he was over forty years old, wrinkles appeared on his face, and his temples began to turn gray.
But when he looked at the woman in the yard, she was lying on a wicker chair, basking in the sun with her legs crossed and humming an ancient tune.
The woody flowers on the wall behind her swayed in the wind, her face was red from the sun, her eyelashes were trembling in the sunlight, and the mottled light of the jujube trees fell on her face, half of it was light, half of it was shadow, and her white and tender hands moved. Taking pictures of the wicker chairs was very comfortable.
Holy and beautiful, time has left no trace on her body.
"Sanxi, take out all those bacon and dry them. The sun is nice today."
He went to the kitchen, took out the bacon, hung it up, filled the water tank with water, chopped enough firewood for several days, and filled the rice tank with rice. The woman smiled and asked him what happened today.
"Sister, I want to start a family."
Wang Xilou was stunned for a moment, then Shuer smiled and said: That's it.
He brought that woman to Wang Xilou. She was a divorced girl in her thirties. When the woman met Wang Xilou, she didn't know that her man behaved like a junior in front of this teenage girl. But I still respectfully call her sister.
Wang Xilou asked him what his plans were. The man said he planned to go north to try his luck, so he gave him a sum of money and watched the two of them leave.
Later, more than thirty years later, an old man with half-glow in the evening scene opened the door of the incense paper shop with trembling eyes.
The scene after the door opened was the way back and the way back that he had been dreaming about.
He looked at the woman lying on a wicker chair in the yard, basking in the sun with her legs crossed. This place had never changed.
It's just that the young man who was lying on the ground with his eyes dimmed from hunger is now gray-haired.
What would a seventy-year-old man call a girl of sixteen or seventeen? granddaughter? Or a great-grandson?
"Sister, I'm back." The octogenarian old man said to the twenty-eight-year-old girl in the yard.
Oh, it’s Sanxi!
Come back to live? It’s not impossible, I haven’t seen you for many years, thirty years, yes, yes!
I? I haven’t waited yet, ha, I’ve been waiting for hundreds of years anyway.
Is the business doing big? So powerful? Come and get some money for me to spend.
Who are you kidding me? I am so poor that I am just basking in the sun.
By the way, I’m going to go out for a while. I’m going to become an immortal soon, haha.
…
The number of people sunbathing in the yard changed from one to two, then from two to one, and finally there was no more. The wood scented flowers bloomed and then failed. The next year, the backyard door was opened again, and Wang Xilou looked embarrassed. Come back outside.
"Sanxi, I'm starving. Go out and buy me a bowl of Yangchun noodles."
Wang Xilou opened the door, and there was bright sunshine in the yard. The jujube branches were lush and swaying in the wind. The leaves and flowers fell all over the ground and no one cleaned them. Weeds grew in the gaps between the stone bricks and had been deserted for some time.
I heard that he died of old age without any illness or disaster.
Blessed, blessed.
…
"Your story is not scary at all, not as scary as mine!"
"You have shrunk under Wanwan's butt. Don't scratch Wanwan's tail."
Po Nu rolled his eyes at the stupid cat and looked at Wanwan: "We're here, Wanwan, come on, come on, come on."
"Huh? But Wanwan doesn't know how to tell stories."
The little fox was very embarrassed, and his toes curled up nervously under the quilt. The story of an adventure on a snowy night in a mountain village that Po Nu had just told was too scary.
"It's okay, Silly Cat can talk about that mess just now, you can do whatever you want."
"I don't like you anymore, I don't want you to sleep in my arms tonight!"
They sat on the bedside, each holding a corner of the quilt.
Po Nu had her legs crossed, Wanwan stood upright and hugged her knees. Yeji, who was originally a beautiful girl with long black hair and straight legs, sat on the side hugging her knees. She turned back into a small child because she was too scared just now.
The cat shrank behind Wanwan.
Wanwan pulled Yeji out from under her tail, held her in her arms, smoothed her hair with her little hands, and said timidly: "Wanwan, let me tell you a less scary story, about a little bear and a little fox. "
"Wait a minute." Ye Ji suddenly interrupted: "I want to go back and bring my polar bear doll over."
Po Nu looked indifferent: "You can go."
"Go get it for me."
"???" Po Nu was confused: "Why? Aren't you going to go by yourself?"
"It's too dark outside. A little one like me will be captured by the snow monster!"
"...There is no snow monster to catch you." That was the horror story she just made up.
Ye Ji lay on Wanwan's lap and said firmly: "Yes, we have seen it. There is a terrible snow monster in the living room."
"I'm speechless, you cat."
Po Nu cursed and went out to help her get the polar bear doll.
Because it was cold outside, she only went to the next room. When she came back, she was completely air-conditioned. She threw the doll to Ye Ji and snuck into the bed, ready to listen to Wanwan's story.
Chifu who was on the side felt that the three of them were very noisy at first, and frowned, wanting to drive them back to bed, but when he saw the lovely Wanwan was there, he listened in.
Listening, she also went over to participate in their activities.
The little girls chatted for most of the night, and what Po Nu talked about was very scary, such as white-tailed dogs that eat children, catching yellow ghosts, and so on. Yeji is just making things up out of the blue and is not scary at all.
Wanwan also wanted to tell scary stories, but they all came out as cute as fairy tales. After she told them, she saw that the other three were not afraid, and she felt very frustrated.
What Chifu told her were all the people she had met in the past few decades. She had seen all the miserable people with her own eyes. They were not necessarily terrible. However, Wanwan and Yeji had great empathy, especially the little fox. After hearing this, They all wiped away tears, and Chifu quickly comforted them.
Just like the little sisters who were junior high school students spent the night at a classmate's house for the first time, they talked endlessly, and then they fell asleep at some point. The four little girls huddled into the same bed, and Wanwan and Chifu slept in a decent manner. Yeji and Ponu hugged each other face to face. Ponu held Yeji's long legs between his legs and pushed them up to her crotch. There was a cold winter wind outside and the quilt was warm inside.
…
The next day, when Feng Wuli woke up, it was already six o'clock. Wang Xilou must have gotten up early to go buy groceries for the first time of the day. He opened his eyes and suddenly woke up, because there was someone standing next to the bed.
"What...are you going to do?"
"This thing is broken." Chifugi frowned and handed him the phone.
"Broken? I just bought it yesterday, why is it broken?"
Feng Wuli sat up and took it over to look at it. There was still 40% battery left when the screen was turned on.
It’s not like the battery is out.
"It's not broken." His hair was still messy and he handed it back.
"Is it not broken?" Chifugi took it and said hesitantly, "But I can't even hear from you."
"..."
Feng Wuli couldn't bear to lie to her, but seeing her frowning and thinking seriously about why she couldn't receive any messages from him, he really couldn't say that he didn't send her any messages at all.
"Let me see if the settings are not adjusted properly."
Chifu handed him the phone again and stood by the bed to watch him do it. Feng Wuli pressed something unknown before returning the phone to her, and then took out his own phone and said to try it out.
She sent several good evening messages last night. Feng Wuli read them but was too lazy to reply.
He edited a "Good morning" and sent it.
"Have you received it?"
"received."
"Just get it." He thought for a moment and then said matter-of-factly: "I'll just tell you why you ignored me when I sent you a message last night."
"Well, me too, I didn't receive any reply from you last night."
She still had a cold face, looking at the screen of her mobile phone and saying "good morning", the corners of her mouth wanted to raise several times, but she stopped.
In the end, he just said coldly: "You haven't gotten up yet, what time is it already?"
Fengwu
Only then did Li go out.
Po Nu just happened to come out of the room rubbing his eyes and yawning. When he saw Feng Wuli, his eyes lit up and he wanted to go over and show off, but was pulled away by Chi Fu.
Feng Wuli went to brush his teeth and wash his face. Wanwan, who had just finished brushing her teeth and put on her school uniform, also woke up.
"Good morning Wanwan."
"Good morning, Mr. Feng Wuli."
"Where's Yeji?"
"Lady Ye Ji is still sleeping."
"Hurry up and brush your teeth and get ready for school."
"Okay"
Wanwan was not tall enough, so she had to stand on a small stool with her bare feet to look in the mirror. She wore down under her blue and white school uniform jacket, which made her look bulging. After Feng Wuli washed her face, she wiped her hands with her tail.
Wanwan was about to explode!
"Lord Feng Wuli!"
She hugged her tail, raised her head with a puffy face, and the look of her hair exploding was particularly interesting.
"Let me tie your hair."
"Um?"
"I'll give you two little balls, they're very cute."
"Ah, I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Feng Wuli!"
She cocked her ears and looked in the mirror to brush her teeth. Feng Wuli stood behind her and combed her hair. , it seems that she made breakfast today.
"Master Feng Wuli, Wanwan's toothpaste is out." Hers is children's toothpaste, a small tube, strawberry flavored.
"Well, let's use Wang Xilou and me first."
"Okay."
Wanwan happily took Feng Wuli's mint toothpaste, but when she brushed her teeth, her whole body felt bad. The coolness of the mint made her mouth feel like ice.
She looked up at Feng Wuli bitterly, and Feng Wuli nodded to her: "This is what it's like to be an adult."
The taste of adults was so terrible that Wanwan didn't even dare to think that if she used such toothpaste every day that made her throat feel cold, her little strawberry-flavored toothpaste would be better. This time, she would buy the cantaloupe-flavored one.
"Isn't the hair cute?"
Wanwan looked at herself in the mirror and hesitated to speak. When Feng Wuli asked again whether she was cute or not, she bit her lower lip and nodded saying cute.
Chifu was already calling the two of them impatiently from below.
"Go put on your shoes." Feng Wuli rubbed his little head.
"Wanwan, go right now!"
Feng Wuli grabbed her tail, Wanwan stirred up her spirit, and instinctively protected her tail. She ran away with her short legs so fast that she was too eager to get angry.
