Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 5513 Spreading the Falsehood
We were all from the same village, so Ping'er couldn't turn around alone, so she came here together.

One of the women saw Ping'er, pulled her back and asked in a low voice, "Ping'er, did you and Zhou Sheng hear anything during the quiet last night?"

Ping'er was stunned by the question, and shook her head blankly: "No, I went to bed after dinner last night, and only heard a few firecrackers at night in a daze."

"Apart from the sound of firecrackers, did you hear anything else?" the woman asked again.

Ping'er became more and more at a loss.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Ma'am, if you know anything, just tell us straight away, don't play charades, let alone ask Ping'er, you can tell she doesn't know."

The woman dropped Ping'er and turned to Yang Ruoqing, "I heard from the person in charge of the Nian last night that the rest of our village is quiet at night. When I passed by Huo Sheng's house, I heard Here comes the ringing."

"What's the noise?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

The woman in front of her glanced around, her eyes widened, but her voice became more and more depressed: "The sound of the trumpet and suona."

"Ah?" Yang Ruoqing was a little confused, and couldn't help but look at Ping'er.

Ping'er also shook her head blankly.

Yang Ruoqing turned her questioning gaze to Wang Cuilian next to her.

Wang Cuilian said: "...the kind of sound that can only be heard at funerals..."

Yang Ruoqing's eyes widened a little, and she looked at the woman who spoke before, "Ma'am, did they hear correctly? It's so windy at night, they even beat the gong themselves!"

The woman waved her hand: "No matter how strong the wind is, it is impossible to mishear it. It is the sound of the trumpet and suona. It is said that it comes from the collapsed room of Huo Sheng's house."

"The first time they passed near Huo Sheng's house, they heard the sound of horns and suona; the second time they passed by, it was the cry of a woman; the third time, it was the sound of children laughing; and the fourth time, it was the sound of a man. The sound of talking..."

"By the way, the Russians, Zhou Sheng's house is not far from Huo Sheng's house, you really didn't hear anything?"

Ping'er had long been frightened by their words so that her face turned pale. When she heard the question, she suddenly came to her senses, shivering and shaking her head again and again.

"no no……"

Yang Ruoqing stood beside Ping'er and held Ping'er's hand tightly as a comfort, but she said to the previous woman: "Ma'am, what you said is too intimidating, let's go first, you guys Let's talk."

Seeing that Yang Ruoqing didn't believe it, the woman still held her back, "Qing'er, you young people don't believe in those things, and don't take them seriously. Let me tell you, where there is movement in the quiet night, next year It must be bad, I heard last year that there was movement at Huo Sheng's house on the night of the quiet night, no, this year Huo Sheng's mother-in-law and two children are gone, there is another movement this year, maybe next year... hey!"

The woman let go of her hand, shook her head, and stopped talking.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, did not argue with them, and took Ping'er away.

After leaving the yard, a gust of cold wind blew towards her face, and Ping'er shivered.

"Qing'er, is it true what the two old ladies said earlier? There are noses and eyes, I feel chills all over my body..."

Yang Ruoqing said: "Living in the village, don't you hear these false rumors less often? No matter how true or false he is, we don't have to take it to heart. We should fix it as we please."

There are many things that science cannot explain, and no one knows whether they exist or not, so what if they exist?So what if it doesn't exist?In front of those mysterious natural forces, people are always as weak as ants.

Although the sun had not completely set, Ping'er had to pass in front of Huo Sheng's house on her way home.

Worried that Ping'er was afraid, Yang Ruoqing sent Ping'er directly to the door of the house before leaving.

When she came back, Yang Ruoqing deliberately slowed down when she passed by the door of Huo Sheng's house, and looked at Huo Sheng's house a few more times.

The house that collapsed is now flat, and the remaining two houses have been repaired. The courtyard door is closed, and the courtyard is in a mess. The snow covered the courtyard before, because many people came to help for the funeral, and it continues to hinder walking. Was shoveled to both sides and slipped out of the middle of a road.

Fragrance paper, dead leaves, firecracker shells, and black shoe prints were mixed together, and the yard was sticky and dirty.

The wind swept across the yard, and the half-open door of the main room was rattled by the wind.

No one came out to fix the door. Inside and out, it was said that the festive atmosphere of the New Year was not even the slightest bit angry.

Yang Ruoqing sighed deeply, turned and left.

……

In the evening, everyone in Lao Yang's family, except Lao Yangtou, and Yongqing's daughter-in-law Mo, who had been locked in the house, all came to Yang Huazhou's house for dinner.

Tan's legs were already able to walk, and with the support of the third girl, she walked all the way from the old house to the entrance of the village.

On the way, some women from the same village came to say hello: "Old lady, is your leg okay?"

Tan's mouth pulled a strange smile: "If my legs are not good, can I stand steadily? Am I blind or are you blind?"

A one-sentence answer made the other party unable to answer.

The third girl had no choice but to apologize to the other party, and apologized with her eyes.

When the third girl helped Mrs. Tan walk away, the woman behind her came back to her senses, and said to the people beside her: "Why does this old lady stab someone like an old hedgehog when she catches someone? I didn't ask anything bad."

The person next to him said with a smile: "This old lady always talks like this, thanks to the good temper of her children and grandchildren."

The woman said again: "I was paralyzed before, but I am standing up again at this age, what a weird old man!"

The person next to him said: "Isn't it? Look at this man's energy and spirit. It seems that he can live for another ten years or so."

"By the way, is she going to the third family or the fifth family at the entrance of the village?"

"It should be the third son's family. This old lady never waits to see the fifth daughter-in-law..."

As soon as the words were finished, the third girl was seen walking past the gate of Yang Huazhong's house with Tan's feet, and went straight to Yang Huazhou's house in front.

"Ah, it's a slap in the face. She is going to the fifth room. The fifth room will marry a daughter-in-law tomorrow. The old lady is going to congratulate her? But doesn't she want to see the fifth wife and Dabao? That Dabao is not the fifth wife. The old lady is the most particular about this..."

"The whole family of gossips!"

Tan, who was walking on the main road, suddenly stopped, turned around and yelled towards the pond at the entrance of the village.

The few women who were chatting together were stunned because Mrs. Tan was facing their direction.

And there was no one around, only a few of them were gossiping, could it be that this old lady has dog ears and can hear all this?

Mrs. Tan suddenly turned around and walked a few steps closer to the pond. She put her hands on her hips and cursed at the women: "Who do I care about, whom to see, who to congratulate, who to pay attention to, it's none of your business? Shameless , chewing endlessly on the back, don’t force my old lady to bring a stool to your house to watch the new year!”

The women were so frightened that they oiled the soles of their feet and slipped away.
