But at this time, she regretted that there was no chance to turn things around, and no one else in the Shen family would let this happen.
Everyone worked together to pack their things, put them on the carriage together with their belongings, and sent them out of Shen's house before they went back to rest.
Xie Yingying could only face her future alone. She returned to her home, which was not rich and could even be said to be abject, and her good days had come to an end.
In the main room of the Su family, Su Chen woke up suddenly at night, sat up from the kang, and screamed. Ling Yun and Su Youting hurriedly got up to check on Chen.
Ling Yun hugged her body from behind and was still shaking. Her eyes were unconsciously looking towards the yard outside and she asked her mother-in-law, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?"
Su Youting was also anxious, "Mom, what's wrong with you? What are you looking at outside?"
When Su Chen saw something, she yelled again, hid in Ling Yun's arms and closed her eyes, "Really, that thing is really in the yard, and it's in the same place as in the dream!"
Ling Yun seemed to understand something. After all, she had just had a dream about someone coming to deliver something. She glanced at Su Youting and asked him to go to the yard and take a look.
Su Youting actually had the same dream, but he had seen the person in the dream before, so he didn't panic too much. He strode to the yard, picked up the thing that suddenly appeared, and put it aside.
"I dreamed that a group of children, one older, and a group of naked children brought a coffin lid and said they were giving gifts. Does this mean that I am about to die?"
Su Chen calmed down a little and pulled Ling Yun to talk about the strange dream just now.
Ling Yun hugged her mother-in-law's shoulders and comforted her, "Mom, you think too much. You will die soon. With me here, you can live a long life. The one just now was the little mountain god Duan Jiabao, who was leading his men. The child soldier came to give us a thank you gift."
Ling Yun didn't expect that his mother-in-law had the same dream and was so frightened. Just now Duan Jiabao said that the lid of his coffin was a locust tree that had been struck by lightning, which was a good thing to ward off evil spirits. No wonder he was very scared that day when he encountered the old fox on the mountain. Surely, the old fox couldn't dig through the lid of his coffin.
Now, in order to thank Ling Yun, he sent them the coffin lid and made a dream to meet and say hello to this family.
He didn't expect to scare the old lady.
Ling Yun could only shake his head and smile bitterly as he had already run away with his men.
When she heard that Duan Jiabao was here, Su Chen's mood improved a lot, "We built a mountain temple, why are we delivering coffin boards in the middle of the night?"
Ling Yun explained, "Mother, you didn't listen carefully to what he said. The coffin board is a treasure. It can be used to ward off evil spirits and exorcise evil spirits. It is a rare good thing to deal with evil spirits."
Su Youting came in and heard this, "Is it that powerful?"
"Of course, let's put it this way, if I had this wooden sword made of thunder-split wood in my hand that night, I would have been able to take care of the old fox!"
When I started talking, I just wanted to change the topic and distract my mother so that I don't have to be so scared. When I heard Ling Yun say this, I immediately took over the job, "It's so precious, then I will cut a wooden sword for you tomorrow."
Ling Yun now had a smile on his face, "Don't waste the remaining materials. Carve a "nothing" sign for our house and Uncle Lin's house. Don't throw away the scraps of wood, mix them with ashes and use them to build the wall."
Seeing that Su Chen no longer looked frightened, Su Youting calmed down and said, "Okay, I understand."
Ling Yun accompanied Su Chen to sleep in this room. Su Youting couldn't sleep anymore, so he started working at night, playing with the coffin lid.
Not long after dawn, he had already gone out to borrow the bullock cart. Knowing that Ling Yun was going to the city to do business today, he had unconsciously regarded Ling Yun and the family as one, and sometimes he would naturally put aside her words. In the heart.
Not only was the wooden sword ready, the ox cart was also ready to leave.
As soon as Ling Yun got up, he saw the carefully polished wooden sword with patterns carved on the handle. It was placed in the yard with two "nothing" cards. The bullock cart at the door was already in place, but Su Youting himself was missing.
The man in the courtyard went to Lin's house early in the morning to open fire. Huzi heard that they were going to the city again today, so he clamored to follow them. One of them came with two, but in the end, one of them went to make breakfast and brought them back. Three people helped with the meal.
Naturally, breakfast is the fate of a clean bowl. There is still work to do at home today.
Su Chen stayed at home to take care of her, while Su Youting drove the bullock cart towards Anyun City with Lingyun's young wife and three boys who had to get on the cart.
You don't need to ask too much when you go into the city. The big house that looks shabby and unpopular. The place where everyone walks around is the house that is said to be very haunted.
There was a piece of red paper pasted on the door. A lot of the paint had been washed away by the rain. From a distance, it looked like blood was dripping down.
There are a few words written on it, Jiwu is for sale, the price is one hundred taels!
It’s really rare to buy a house like this, just write the price directly on it.
In the town, the houses for sale are either managed by dental shops, or they are directly handed over to the county clerk to handle them on their behalf, and a certain fee can be left at that time.
After asking several nearby dental shops, they all said that he didn't dare to get involved in such a house. Su Youting went straight to the county government office and asked a familiar clerk about the situation. Even if he wanted to buy it, he had to find the owner to do it. Only after completing the formalities and obtaining the title deed can it be completed.
When the clerk heard that Su Youting's wife wanted to buy the house, he quickly persuaded her, "Brother Su, you can't touch this bargain. This house sounds cheap for a hundred taels, but it's like a hot potato in your hand, and you can't even shake it off. Your family is not a big family. With this money, you might as well build a big yard in the village. You can’t build anything you want with a hundred taels, but this house is haunted.”
They also had good intentions, fearing that Su Youting would regret it if he didn't know the situation. How could he have thought that Ling Yun came here because he liked this haunted thing and was well prepared. She came to the city with the wooden sword she just got. .
Before, she had to work hard to touch this house, but now that she has the Thunder Splitting Wooden Sword, she is confident and sure of it.
Su Youting took out the one hundred taels of silver notes given by Ling Yun and went through the formalities without hesitation. The clerk was still worried that they would regret not getting the money back afterwards, so he said kindly, "Brother Su, let's get to know each other. I also have some rights." , if you want to give it a try, don't change the name on the house deed in the Yamen file first. I'll give you the old house deed first. After you see the house, if you want to change it, come to me."
If the owner is not here, the scribe can indeed do this. As long as the file is not changed, no one can know that someone has given money to this house. When the time comes, if Su Youting wants to refund the money, he can make the decision. If the bottom file of the file is changed, He said it wouldn't matter.
Su Youting did not hesitate and directly put another fifty-tael silver ingot on the table. This was the fee required by the yamen for handling the change of owner of the house. It was 10% of the total price of the house, half for the buyer and the seller.
Naturally, they had to pay a fee of 50 taels for a house worth 100 taels, and said, "Just change the owner of the house deed to avoid future troubles."
He is not stupid. The price of this house is definitely more than one hundred taels. If the young daughter-in-law takes the trouble to clean up the house and no one buys it, then all the water in the bamboo basket will be in vain.
The clerk couldn't resist him, so he could only go through the formalities as quickly as possible and hand over the newly replaced house deed to Su Youting.
