Chapter 81: Visiting the Wrong Grave
Chapter 81: Visiting the Wrong Grave
The next morning, Chen Xin and Wang Xingping rushed to their aunt Chen Yupei's house.
Chen Yupei has three homes, or three residences.
One is located in the downtown residential area, one is near the downtown business district, and one is located at the boundary between the suburbs and the city.
The apartment that Chen Xin and his friends are going to now is located in the residential area in the city center.
Although he lost his parents when he was reborn into this world, Chen Xin did not become a true orphan like other novel protagonists.
Relatives from both sides of his parents were generally very nice to him.
Although grandma was on Chen's mother's side, after Chen Xin's parents passed away, Chen's father's sister Chen Yupei would take care of the old lady from time to time.
On the one hand, this is a case of loving the whole person, Chen Yupei shared his love for his deceased brother with Chen Xin and Chen Xin's grandmother.
On the other hand, Chen Xin's grandparents died early, and neither Chen Yupei nor his father received much care from their parents.
After Chen Xin's parents got married, they visited each other frequently, and Chen Yupei also received long-lost care from Chen Xin's grandmother.
Of course, Chen Xin thinks the most important point is that Chen Yupei is not short of money.
Chen Yupei was first married to the suburbs of Mubei City.
With the compensation from his uncle's house demolition, Chen Yupei and his wife bought three houses in remote areas, planning to collect rent and live a good life.
As luck would have it, three years later there was another major development and the house became located in a prime location. After the demolition, the three houses were turned into a six-story building!
With such good fortune, Chen Yupei's life became even better and she lived the life of a landlady.
Afterwards, she relied on the rent from renting out her house and bought two houses in the urban area of Mubei City with loans before the housing prices skyrocketed.
Today, the price of the two apartments has tripled.
After that, Chen Yupei didn't want to struggle anymore, so he just lived a simple life with two apartments and a building.
So when Chen Yupei took Chen Xin's grandmother to live with him, her husband wouldn't say anything.
In addition, the old lady has a sharp tongue, and when she follows Chen Yupei to collect rent, she can always leave those tenants who want to default on rent speechless, so she is not a freeloader.
Nowadays, as long as the old lady accompanies Chen Yupei to collect rent, basically no tenant wants to say anything, and the old lady is no longer interested in this hobby of collecting rent.
The following stories about grandma were all heard by Chen Xin from Chen Yupei when they were chatting.
Chen Yupei even thought that the old lady wanted to go back to the village this time not because she wanted to go back and visit the whole place, but because there was no one here to argue with her anymore.
After arriving at Chen Yupei's home, Chen Xin felt the love from his aunt.
"The little three catties has grown into a big three catties. Boys grow fast. How long has it been since he changed so much?"
Chen Yupei said this and pushed Chen Xin in front of Mei Huixiang again.
"Aunt Mei, look at your grandson. Has he become more handsome?"
"grandmother."
Chen Xin shouted.
"Well, I have grown taller, but I haven't grown much in heart."
Mei Huixiang had a smile on her face, but her words were not very pleasant.
Hearing this, Chen Xin was also embarrassed.
When he was in school, Chen Xin would visit the old man once every week or two. But since he graduated from high school and entered summer vacation, he discovered that the world was different and he has never left home, let alone visit the old man.
It is normal to hear the old lady say this at this time.
"Grandma, I'm wrong. I'm here now."
Chen Xin walked over with a smile and held the old man's hand, then put a paper-cut substitute that had been processed, wrapped in yellow paper into a triangle and tied with a red rope in his hand.
"Grandma, this is the amulet I asked for. Just keep it with you if you are okay."
Mei Huixiang was stunned, but when she saw the amulet, she still couldn't keep a straight face.
Chen Yupei, who was standing by, immediately pretended to be unhappy after seeing this scene.
"Well, Sanjin, your aunt loves you for nothing!"
When Chen Xin saw Chen Yupei's expression, he immediately took out another similarly packaged substitute paper-cut and handed it over.
"How could I forget my aunt?"
Chen Yupei was holding Chen Xin's arm while holding the amulet given by Chen Xin with a smile on his face.
"You'd better be good, Sanjin. When school starts, I'll give you a laptop. It can be anything under 2 yuan. It won't be good to keep it in the dormitory if it's more expensive."
This time, not only was Chen Xin speechless after hearing this, but Wang Xingping next to him also didn't know where to start complaining so as to appear less of a country bumpkin.
It’s not good to keep a laptop that costs more than 20,000 yuan in the dormitory, so a laptop that costs 19,000 yuan will be fine?
"Aunt, my notebook is enough. I will find you when I really need to change it."
"That's good!"
As they were talking, Chen Yupei's husband Huang Deqi also came over.
"Chen Xin, where is your uncle's amulet?"
"Uncle, I know you don't believe this, so I didn't ask for it for you."
Huang Deqi's face froze.
It was during the meal that Chen Xin found out that his aunt’s two children had gone traveling.
After dinner, Chen Yupei wanted to take Chen Xin to the mall to buy some clothes.
Chen Xin refused on the grounds that he wanted to go home with his grandmother.
After all, it's already two o'clock in the afternoon. If I delay any longer, I might not be able to go home until night.
Unable to persuade Chen Xin, Chen Yupei had to send the old man and Chen Xin back to Wangjiagou together with her husband.
Wang Xingping did not follow, but just moved some daily necessities from his car to Chen Yupei's car.
"Sister Pei, these things are for my mother. You can take the special cigarettes, alcohol and tea and drink them yourselves!"
After saying that, Wang Xingping said hello to Mei Huixiang and Chen Xin, and drove away without even trying to stop him.
Speechless all the way.
When Chen Xin arrived at Wangjiagou, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
Chen Yupei and his wife did not stay long. They left within five minutes of dropping off the two people.
"Come on, I still have to clean your room."
The old lady went into the room and Chen Xin started moving things into the room.
After working until 7:30 in the evening, Chen Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the stool at the door to eat the rice with gravy made by the old lady.
As for the old lady, she ate a little and then started chatting with an acquaintance who was passing by at the door.
Chen Xin was also happy to eat with gossip. "You're back, how long will you stay this time?"
"Ten days or half a month, maybe he won't leave."
"That's a good relationship. Without you, I can't even talk clearly."
Listening to her old friend's words, Mei Huixiang showed a happy smile on her face.
"Is there anything going on in the village recently?"
"It's okay. What could possibly happen? Does it count as a problem if my family runs a B&B?"
"Oh, that's good!"
Mei Huixiang rarely praised him, maybe it was because she had just returned and was still feeling fresh, so her sharp tongue had not yet become strong.
Wang Qin was obviously very happy to hear Mei Huixiang's praise.
"It's okay, it's okay. By the way, speaking of things... there is indeed one."
"what?"
"The child of the Guifen family is back. What's his name... Wang Feiang? Yes, Wang Feiang! A few days after he came back, he took the offerings to the ancestral mountain to worship."
Hearing this, Mei Huixiang was puzzled.
"Isn't this normal? People who come back from outside are worshipping their ancestors. What's there to say?"
"It's not over yet, why rush?"
Wang Qin glared at Mei Huixiang and continued:
"Wang Feiang just worshipped, but he insisted that he came back to worship his ancestors because he made money outside. In the end... he was exposed! What do you think? He lost money in business outside and wanted to come back to worship his ancestors to change his luck!"
"That's fine, but do you know what the funniest thing is...hahaha!"
Before Wang Qin could say anything, she started laughing.
"Wang Feiang hasn't been back for a long time, so he worshipped the ancestral mountain of Wangjia Village as the ancestral mountain of our Wangjiagou."
Mei Huixiang also widened her eyes when she heard this.
“Can this be wrong?”
"Haha, yes, who would have thought that when he came back and told everyone about it, everyone laughed. But guess what happened?"
Wang Qin put away her smile and asked mysteriously, "But can Mei Huixiang be spoiled?"
"I won't guess. If you don't tell me, I'll go talk to other people!"
Saying that, he was about to leave.
"You are so...I say, I say!"
Helplessly, Wang Qin spoke.
"After Wang Feiang realized that he had made a mistake, he felt sorry for the sacrifices, so he ran back and took the sacrifices away, and went to worship the Wang family's ancestral mountain!"
"He got sick when he came back, mumbling that he saw a ghost, and has been lying in bed at home for several days now."
"It's obvious that the ancestors of the Wang Family's ancestral mountain are unhappy that Wang Feiang took their sacrifices, so they are deliberately making trouble for him!"
Wang Qin said this conclusion with certainty.
"You mean the Guifen family's child...saw a ghost?"
Chen Xin, who had already finished his meal and was about to go back for another bowl, sat back down abruptly and looked at Mei Huixiang and the others while holding his empty bowl.
If you say this, then he is not hungry anymore!
"real or fake?"
Mei Huixiang obviously didn't believe it.
How come she had only been away for a short time and the topic of conversation in the village had become so high-class?
In the past, people would mostly talk about which girl was 28 and still unmarried, or which boy married a tall girl with blond hair, blue eyes and white skin, or how many people a certain B&B had hosted and how much money it had made.
But now?
"Why did I lie to you!"
Wang Qin felt a little embarrassed when Mei Huixiang looked at her like that.
"But I don't think it's anyone from the Wang family who's got him. He was just frightened and shocked. He just needs to drink two doses of medicine."
Then Wang Qin told Wang Feiang the details of what happened that day.
It turned out that it was a rainy morning, and there was a lot of fog in the mountains. In addition to the rain, Wang Feiang went to worship his ancestors early in the morning without the fog dissipating.
I didn't recognize the road because I had been away for so long, and it was foggy, so it was normal that I made mistakes in the worship.
As for why he fell ill afterwards, it is unknown, after all, no one went with Wang Feiang.
After listening to everything, Chen Xin felt a little more serious.
If he didn't know the other side of this world, he might have thought that Wang Qin's subsequent explanation was the truth.
But now, he is more inclined to the first statement.
"There are supernatural incidents even in the village..."
But whether it is true or not, you still have to go and see it to find out.
It would be fine if he didn't have the ability, but now that he has the ability to solve it, he naturally can't tolerate supernatural events happening in the place where his grandmother is.
When Chen Xin was thinking this, Mei Huixiang spoke.
"Come on, let's go and see what's going on."
As she spoke, Mei Huixiang took two items from the pile of things Wang Xingping bought at home and walked out.
Wang Qin naturally wanted to go to Wang Feiang's house to take a look before, after all, she had only heard about it from others.
But if people who have nothing to do with it go to Wang Fei'ang, isn't that just seeing a joke?
But now it’s different, now they have the final say!
With excitement, the two of them walked together.
Chen Xin looked at what his grandmother was holding.
"I really spend a lot of money just to get first-hand gossip when chatting!"
As he said this, he put down the bowl and chased after him.
"Grandma, this thing is heavy, I'll carry it for you!"
"Hey, this is Chen Xin, right? He's grown so big..."
