Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 222 The truth about the haunting

"No, why should they be the only ones who can do it? When Lin Gu comes back next time, I have to go to his house to find him. I have to make this money too."

"That's right. We are from the same village. Why should we favor one over the other? If we count back a few generations, my family and the clan leader's family are relatives."

"We're going to cut bamboo too. Didn't you hear us just now? Lin Gu was wondering why so many people came today. I think the extra ones were inserted secretly by them. Since they inserted it, we'll do the same. When the time comes, we'll have done it. I don't believe that Lin Gu won't take it back."

"Okay, let's all go chop!"

"..."

Someone agrees.

Everyone went home to get axes.

So much so that in the afternoon, the entire Jiangjia Village became unusually quiet.

There were almost no people in the houses or in the fields.

They all gathered at the foot of the mountain, cutting bamboo and carrying it back home in batches.

After an hour, at least one tenth of the bamboo in the huge bamboo forest had been cut down.

now.

The Jiang family had just seen off the last guest.

After cleaning up the shop.

They closed the doors to the front and back yards and got on the ox cart.

However, they did not return home.

Instead, go to the next door Decoration Street.

Zhang Jinlan was holding her granddaughter, and a bird was lying on Jiang Fubao's arm.

It's Phoenix.

"Mrs. Fan, you are so pitiful. Your husband was frightened and their family is ruined. Now that we know what the ghost crying in the shop is about, I must tell them. We can't let them be kept in the dark for the rest of their lives. What if Shopkeeper Yu finds out that there is no ghost in the backyard and his madness is cured? Then we will have done a good deed."

Zhang Jinlan and Fan Wanyue get along well.

She, who doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs, this is the first time she has meddled in other people's affairs.

The ox cart stopped at the entrance of Tianqing Lane.

Zhang Jinlan asked the others to sit on the ox cart and wait, and she went in carrying her granddaughter.

The phoenix did not fly away, but lay obediently on Jiang Fubao's arm.

Because Jiang Fubao bribed it with two pieces of watermelon.

"Boom boom boom——"

"Mrs. Fan, it's me, Zhang. Are you home? Open the door—"

Zhang Jinlan knocked on the Yu family’s door.

Waited for a while.

Fan Wanyue came to open the door.

"Hey? Shopkeeper Zhang? Why are you here? Is there something wrong with the shop?" she asked anxiously.

There was still fear and guilt on his face.

If selling the shop caused the death of Manager Zhang's family, she would never be able to rest in peace for the rest of her life.

I should have known to tear down the shop instead of selling it and harming people.

Fan Wanyue regretted it.

"No, no, don't worry. I came here this time because I have something to tell you. Can I come in and talk?"

Seeing that she had misunderstood, Zhang Jinlan quickly explained.

There are other people in the alley, so it’s not appropriate to talk about these things at the door.

"Ah? Okay, then come in."

Fan Wanyue was stunned for a moment.

He made way and invited the grandparents and grandchildren in.

"I wonder what brings you here in such a hurry? Is there something wrong with the shop? It's okay. If you don't want to buy it anymore, I can return your money and we can just pretend that we never made a deal."

Fan Wanyue is kind-hearted.

She got up and wanted to go into the house to get the silver.

But Zhang Jinlan grabbed him.

"Mrs. Fan, don't be anxious. Please listen to me. I found that there is no ghost in the shop. It's all a misunderstanding. However, I'm afraid you won't believe me. So, can you bring Manager Yu here? I'll talk to you later." Zhang Jinlan looked at the mynah bird lying obediently on her granddaughter's arm, and whispered to Fan Wanyue.

"Misunderstanding? What do you mean? Where is the misunderstanding?"

Fan Wanyue's eyes suddenly widened and she asked in disbelief.

Because he was too shocked, his breathing became rapid, causing his lips to tremble slightly.

"Let's bring Manager Yu here first."

Zhang Jinlan patted the back of her hand.

Signal her not to get too excited.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Fan Wanyue staggered out the door and almost tripped over her long skirt.

After waiting for less than five minutes, she came with Yu Xingwang.

The last time the grandparents and grandchildren saw him, he was acting crazy, but this time he was unusually quiet.

However, his lifeless eyes revealed that he was abnormal.

"Today, my granddaughter found this mynah bird on the persimmon tree of the shop. I didn't expect it to be able to speak human language, especially imitating the cries of women and children. It sounds very similar. It's okay during the day, but it must be very creepy at night. I'm afraid the rumors of ghosts are related to this bird. Fenghuang, cry for them to hear."

After Zhang Jinlan finished speaking, Fenghuang ignored her.

It was not until Jiang Fubao spoke that it barked a few times out of courtesy.

"Whoa whoa-"

"woo woo woo woo--"

The sound of crying echoed in the main room.

Yu Xingwang, who had been quiet at first, suddenly went crazy.

"Ghost, there is a ghost, a ghost came to my house, what should I do, it ran out of the shop, run, my wife, run, take my son and daughter-in-law and run--"

He held his head, squatted on the ground, and trembled with fear.

But he was actually concerned about his family, who were most important to him.

"Manager Yu, don't be afraid. There are no ghosts. Where do ghosts come from in this world? They are all fake. I'm afraid that the ghost crying sound you heard in the shop before was made by this bird. Listen carefully. Do the two sounds look similar?"

As soon as Zhang Jinlan finished speaking, Jiang Fubao signaled the phoenix to continue calling.

"Whoa whoa-"

"Uuuuuuuuuu——"

"Yes, that's the sound. It's the sound of a ghost. No, why is it a bird singing and not a ghost? There is no ghost?"

Yu Xingwang raised his head tremblingly and saw that the terrifying scream was actually made by a bird.

His pupils dilated and contracted.

He stood up suddenly.

He rushed to Jiang Fubao and stared at the phoenix carefully.

"Yes, there are no ghosts, they are all fake, Shopkeeper Yu, you should wake up, there is nothing to be afraid of, they are just birds chirping, where are the ghosts? As the saying goes, don't believe rumors. A sentence passed on by ten people will become another meaning. When you bought that shop, you knew that the backyard might be haunted.

So when I heard the bird call, I really thought there was a ghost. Shopkeeper Yu, you should cherish your family and stop being crazy. Look at Madam Fan, she worries about you every day. At the age of forty, she actually has white hair. Alas, I feel sorry for her, so I closed the shop and hurried over to tell you about this."

After Zhang Jinlan finished her explanation, she sighed.

she knows.

I'm afraid that Shopkeeper Yu's madness was caused by being frightened.

If he knew the truth of the matter, perhaps his madness would be cured.

You have to give it a try.

After all, Mrs. Fan is kind-hearted and a good person, and her family got such a great deal by buying this shop.

Tell them the truth.

Only then can Zhang Jinlan feel at ease.

She looked at Yu Xingwang who was standing there in a daze.

He looked at Fan Wanyue who was crying again.

No more words were spoken.
