Three and a half women in four courtyards

Chapter 124

In front of the main house of the Hou Family Courtyard.

"Ang, what's the commotion outside?" Hou Zhang's voice came from the room.

"Sister-in-law, I invited a great dancing god. The god said, why did I get this yellow disease? It's just attracting ghosts. I have to drive the ghosts away, and the disease will be cured." Shun Liuhou said outside the window .

"Ang, this is not nonsense, we have a Baojiaxian in our family, where did the ghost come from!" Hou Zhang said.

"Oh, sister-in-law, you said that Dang Xian is not very useful now. You see, he can't keep our family safe!" Shun Liuhou said, "I know this Shen family from a poker player. Those who have learned from that Manchurian old Chama can be regarded as "Lafayette" people, so don't worry."

"Oh? Why are you playing cards again!" Hou Mingli said weakly.

"Ang, brother, look, I don't play Pai Gow, how can I know this Shen's family! Get well, brother." Shun Liuhou said, "In a moment, Shen's family is going to enter the house and walk around the edge of the kang, open the door. (Open it)."

The God's family invited by Shunliuhou is named Tang Guangen.He is wearing a brightly colored divine garment, with 22 string bells hanging around his waist, and holding a scratch drum in his hand, which makes a rattling noise when he walks.

After negotiating the price with Shunliuhou, Tang Guangen opened the Buddha's box, arranged the silk frame, put the table surround on the altar, lit the Dazi incense, and began to twist up and down.

He twisted and sang a divine song in Manchu:

"The merit of the ancestors,

The child firmly remembered.

I beseech my ancestors,
bless the children and grandchildren,

Bless the family..."

Tang Guangen went into the inner room singing and came to the kang, twisted on the edge of the kang and sang.

Sometimes he sang in Chinese, and he could still understand it, and sometimes he sang in Manchu, and everyone couldn't understand it.

"Oh? Is this Gaha?" Bao Yixian was a little surprised when he entered the door and saw the mysterious people in the compound.

"Oh, little sister-in-law, I'm asking God's family to cast out ghosts." Shunliuhou said, "My brother's whole body is yellow, he must have attracted ghosts, just chase them away."

"Oh? Don't take medicine, can I do it with this? Why do I feel like I'm in danger (dangerous, not sure)." Bao Yixian didn't believe it.

"Oh, not hanging, it's very dependable on the spoon (working hard). Besides, I would like to get medicine for my brother and others, but where can I get it!" Shun Liuhou said, "This god's family followed the old Chama to pay homage to Zuma. Yes, the magic power is boundless, and my brother and sister-in-law are guaranteed to recover from their illnesses."

Bao Yixian looked at Shun Liuhou suspiciously, and came to the window: "Ang, big sister, I brought you food. I left it at the door, you can take it back and eat."

"Oh, little sister-in-law, don't bother, we can't eat anymore, our stomachs are bloated." Hou Zhang said weakly inside.

"Uh, then you have to take some more, you will have strength." Bao Yixian said, "I have brought back the prescription from Mr. Zong, and I am picking up the medicine. If I get the medicine, I will bring it to you. You guys Be sure to stand up, the medicine is hard to find (find) now."

Yang Cuizhi took in the food at the door and shared some with Hou Mingli and Hou Zhang: "Oh, Dad, Mom, let's eat some."

"Oh, you eat some too." Hou Zhang looked at Yang Cuizhi distressedly, "Poor child, you will suffer with our old Hou's house."

Tang Guangen twisted for a while, saying that he was tired and hungry.

Shunliuhou hurriedly said: "Oh, then, God's family, you take a rest first, I'll let Diao Yingzi cook."

"Oh, no, I'll just eat their leftovers." As he spoke, he ate up all the food Bao Yixian sent, and also ate the unfinished food of Hou Zhangshi and Yang Cuizhi, "This year, don't waste it." Food, and vegetables with meat."

"Oh? Oh, you can't eat this." Bao Yixian saw Tang Guangen eating leftovers.

"Oh? What's the matter? It's such a small shop (stingy, stingy), isn't it just ordering leftovers." Tang Guangen said, "There is some meat in it, so you can't bear it?"

"Ang, that's not what I mean, I'm afraid I'll pass the disease on to you."

"Ang, I'm a god, how can I be afraid of such a small problem!"

Bao Yixian frowned when he heard this.

Tang Guangen and Shunliuhou were supposed to dance for three full days, but at noon (morning) on ​​the third day, Tang Guangen couldn't stand it anymore.

"Oh, oh, I can't do it, I'm too tired!" Tang Guangen came out from the back room, scratched his body and chattered, and then sat down on the threshold.

"Om? What's the matter, Shenjia?" Shunliuhou asked.

"Oh? Oh, God's family, why are your face, your eyes, and your hands all yellow?" Bao Yixian suddenly noticed that Tang Guangen's whole body had also turned yellow.

Tang Guangen went into the room and looked in the mirror, he was also shocked: "Oh? This ghost is too powerful, I guess it is a fierce ghost, I am not good enough, I can't handle him, let's go!"

He came out to pack up his things, turned around and went out.

"Oh, Shenjia, the dance is not over yet." Shun Liuhou followed.

"Ang, jump again, I will die if I jump again." Tang Guangen said and walked out of the gate.

The main house of the Congjia compound.

After Bao Yixian put Cong Suhua and Cong Sumiao to sleep, he also lay on the kang to watch the moon outside.

The moonlight swayed through the window paper and sprinkled some frost on the window.

This frost is more or less cold.

It is already the second month of the lunar calendar, and Hou Mingli and Hou Zhang's patients have survived for more than a month. Without medicines, they can only rely on their bodies to bear it.

She remembered Leleli's words during the day: "Ang, boss, I didn't even go into the street of Liangzhufu, let alone buy medicine."

It seems that the county seat has been sealed off, and the country people are not allowed to enter the city, fearing that the plague will be brought into the streets.

Liangchuifu was the only place where medicine could be obtained.

She originally thought that the Japanese devils controlled the distribution of medicines, and medicines could not be bought in the normal market, so there should be goods in the black market, right?Even if you spend a lot of money, you must get the medicine.

But he let Leleli enter the city twice in a row, but he couldn't get any medicine, which made people more and more anxious.

If it goes on like this, the members of the Hou family may not make it to the end.

Thinking of this, Bao Yixian burst into tears.

Against the backdrop of the moonlight, the teardrops shone with a glimmer of light.

She thought of her hastily fleeing from the Jiuquan Lianhua Moon Mountain, and the scene when she first arrived at the camp of Xiadi.

Since then, Hou Zhang's family has always been her closest people, and they have come to help in many things.

Especially Hou Zhang, the two are as close as sisters, they talk about everything, and they are the only confidants in this camp.

She couldn't imagine that once Hou Zhang's accident happened, whether she could bear this harsh reality in her heart.

She was confused, thinking of Wu Laqin and Beiji for a while, and thinking of the Fourth Emperor, who was half asleep and half awake in a daze.

Suddenly, Bao Yixian heard footsteps in front of the window: "Oh? Who?!" She sat up abruptly.Look at the window, the moonlight is still there, glowing with a touch of white.

Is there a beard?She looked at Cong Suhua and Cong Sumiao, the two children slept soundly.

Bao Yixian quietly put on his clothes, went to the window, licked a small hole in the window paper with his tongue, and looked out through the small hole.

It was quiet outside, no suspicious targets were found, only the moonlight wandering unscrupulously between the sky and the earth.

The beards are only dispatched on dark and windy nights, and such moonlit nights don't seem to be suitable for them.

She got up and rechecked the latch, which felt secure.

He leaned on the crack of the door and looked out, and there was still no movement, so he went to the kang without worry, and fell asleep in a daze.
