Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 308 Landing in Tanzhou
Yesterday I was still yelling that "a broken home is worth ten thousand yuan", and this morning I was making a fuss about moving. My mother's attitude changed 180 degrees, which made me a little confused, so I hurriedly stopped my mother and said what's wrong, Taking the wrong medicine?

Mother put on a tiger face and said, did anyone say that about your old lady?Go, go, you son of a bitch.

Although she reprimanded her like this, she was not angry, and went into the house with a bag. I stopped Ma Yi'ao, and I still didn't understand what was going on. How did you convince her?

Ma Yi'ao laughed, patted himself on the face, and said that it mainly depends on temperament.

I gave him a "bah" and said that my mother is not interested in a little boy like you, even if you betray your lust, you can't figure it out, what's going on, tell me quickly.

Ma Yi'ao stopped hiding from me, and said that when your mother was talking to you about this matter yesterday, she said something repeatedly, do you still remember?

I'm a little confused, what are you talking about?

Ma Yi'ao said: "Hey, no wonder you can't handle your mother, look at your carelessness - 'a broken family is worth ten thousand', remember this sentence?"

I just came back to my senses, but I was still puzzled, saying that even if this is the case, so what, what did you do?
Ma Yi'ao said: "I went to the city in the middle of the night yesterday. Early in the morning, I made an appointment with someone and brought out 20 yuan. Then I met your mother at the butcher shop at the entrance of the village, and I handed over the bag containing 20 yuan to you. After marrying your mother, I promised her that after the move, I will save another 80 yuan for her—a broken house is worth tens of thousands, and I will give you 100 million yuan. Your mother just agreed without thinking..."

Uh……

I've thought about many possibilities, but I never imagined that Ma Yi'ao would use such a simple and rude method to beat my mother back.

Friends today may think it is exaggerated, but you have to think about it. In 2000, the house price in the urban area of ​​Yanjing, the imperial capital, was only about 1800. If it was Tanzhou, the capital of Xianghu Province, hey, the ordinary house price It is estimated to be a few hundred, at most one or two thousand—or how can I say that my mother is nagging me about lending Erpang this guy 1 yuan.

Because money at that time was really valuable.

With 100 million in hand, the richest man in Song City dare not say, at least in our area, there are only a handful of them.

My mother is a little vain and likes to brag, but her brain is absolutely flexible. Seeing Ma Yi'ao handing out the real money, she put aside all her previous thoughts except fearing that he would go back on his word.

After I heard him finish speaking, I couldn't help but take a breath and said that you are really willing.

Ma Yi'ao shrugged his shoulders and said that the money he got back from Bao Yasu was half of you and half of me. The wool came from the sheep, and it was just a generosity to others.

I said that even though I said that, I still... thank you very much.

Ma Yi'ao laughed and said, why does it sound so wrong to me when you say that?It's alright, alright, don't be hypocritical here, there are so many things in your house, although many things can be kept here, there are still some things that need you to sort out.

I nodded, didn't say anything more, and went back to help tidy up.

Our family is mainly based on my mother's will. Apart from doing some farm work, my father also plays chess, researches recipes, and basically has no ideas.

So my mother figured it out, and it was all right.

But when it comes to moving, there is indeed a lot to sort out.

I saw my mother spread out this and that, and she was a little anxious, so I asked them to pack up some important documents and the like, and just bring a few clothes with them.

Before coming here, Ma Yi'ao and I had already discussed that if we moved too far away, our parents' local accent would be hard to change, and we would be very uncomfortable, and if we moved closer, we might be exposed.

So the best way is to move to Tanzhou, the provincial capital. For my parents, moving from the countryside to the provincial capital is already a big leap, and they are willing to go out of the province, but for me , as long as Huang Quanyin is not allowed to find them, anything is fine.

Ma Yi'ao has a friend in Tanzhou. When we go there, we can live with him first, and then we can buy a house and settle down directly.

Money is the guts of a man, with money, many things can be achieved.

No matter how hard I try to dissuade them, there are still a lot of things in the end. I pick and choose, and in the end there are still six big boxes full, and there are big and small bags, which is a headache to look at.

When it was noon, my mother set up lunch first, and I went to wake up Suzaku. The little girl really loved to sleep, and when I woke her up, her eyes were red and her face was unhappy.

This is getting up gas.

I woke her up, told her to wash up quickly, and then went to the third uncle's house, asked him to come over for dinner, and chatted with him about helping to move.

When I arrived, the third uncle was carrying a hoe and had just returned from farm work. He was very surprised to hear what I said. Why did he keep moving away without making any noise?Haven't heard of it?

The third uncle knew something about me, so in front of him, I didn't hide too much. I told him that I had some enemies, and those people acted indiscriminately. I was afraid that they would find my hometown to take revenge, so I told him Have to arrange it in advance.

Uncle San said, where are you going?

I'm not sure, let's leave first, and I need your help to deal with anything - but if a stranger comes to inquire, you just don't know anything.

The third uncle saw that I was serious, nodded, and said yes, yes.

At noon that day, Uncle San and I had dinner at home. During the meal, my parents explained a lot of things to him, such as the allocated land, and asked him to help sublet it out at that time. In addition, the keys of the house were also handed over to him. And some explanations at home and so on.

These are nothing in my opinion, but my parents attach great importance to them, and even such things as gift money and favors, my mother specially opened the account books and explained them seriously.

Seeing my mother talking seriously with my third uncle, I felt a little sad.

After all, this is where she and my father have lived for most of their lives. Even if there is a large sum of money, it is really difficult for them to let her leave suddenly and cannot come back for a short time, nor can they have any contact. Some cruelty.

In the end, it's me who is the son, who is really too capable of causing trouble.

Fortunately, the third uncle has always done things properly. My mother trusts him very much, and she is finally relieved to hear that he has responded one by one.

After the meal, I borrowed my third uncle's pickup truck and took my parents to the homes of my grandparents and grandmothers, as well as the homes of several close relatives.

But for them, it is another way of saying that I am well-off in the southern province, and I want to take them there to live for a while.

With the money given by Ma Yi'ao, my mother became more generous. She usually picks and chooses, but now she gives money without blinking an eye, and she is very cautious, not easily opening her mouth.

After such a busy day, night fell, and we left the hometown where I had lived for 18 years in my third uncle's pickup truck.

We stayed in Songcheng overnight that day, and the next day I forced a sum of money to my third uncle, then rented a car and rushed to Tanzhou.

Ma Yi'ao's friend is in the Tianxin Pavilion area of ​​Tanzhou. The house is a self-built house with six floors facing the street. The first floor is rented out to shops, the second floor is independent, and the third floor is rented out. If there are vacant rooms, it can be regarded as Can settle down.

This man is also a practitioner, named Guo Dali, whose ancestral home is Shandong. His grandparents went south with Liu Deng's army, and finally stayed in Tanzhou.

I don't know what he does exactly, but he called Ma Yi'ao his senior brother, and he was very generous. Not only did he invite us to the best restaurant nearby for dinner that day, and he would clean up the dust for us, but he also promised me that my parents How long do you want to live?

Having said that, other people's houses are not as good as my own. The second day after I settled down, my mother took me to see the house.

In Tanzhou around 2000, although there were commercial houses, there were not many. Fortunately, there were not many people who were willing to buy houses and consume them, so it was not impossible to have no houses to buy.

I went shopping with my mother for three days, and probably decided on three places, one is near the city hall, it is a newly built civil servants’ quarter, a third-year house, no takeaway, or after Guo Dali learned that we were going to buy a house, he relied on the relationship I found it; one is a row of newly built villas on the riverside near Central South University, the price is quite expensive, and it is said that they are for foreign businessmen; the other is near Osmanthus Park, which is also a relatively high-end new-style community ——It is said that there is an elevator.

The villa was first rejected by the mother, and then the civil servants' community and the sweet-scented osmanthus park. The mother was very entangled and didn't know which one to choose.

Finally, when she asked for my opinion, I told her directly that yes, or I would have bought them all.

At first, my mother disagreed, but after discussing it with my father, I didn't know what to do, so it was decided.

I found out later that it was bought for my marriage.

In the following time, there are still many trivial matters. Fortunately, Ma Yi'ao's friend, Lao Guo, is very enthusiastic. He also has many friends in Tanzhou, so he has saved a lot of time.

I was grateful in my heart, but at the same time I had some scruples, so I asked Ma Yi'ao, is your friend reliable?
Ma Yi'ao told me that Lao Guo is actually a part of the government, and he has no connection with the rivers and lakes at all, so he is absolutely fine.

At that time, when I bought a house, I didn’t need any decoration, just scrape it clean and put some tiles on it. The civil servant’s complex where my parents lived was well-equipped, and I bought some furniture and I was ready to move in.

I was busy and stayed in Tanzhou for more than a month. Ma Yi'ao took the time to go back to Mangshan, but Suzaku stayed.

Only then did my mother confirm that this girl who was as beautiful as a female star on TV was actually a couple with me.

This incident made her so excited that she couldn't fall asleep the whole night, and the next day she dragged me and questioned her, which made me dizzy.

In mid-September, Ma Yi'ao came back from Mangshan Mountain, found me, pulled me aside, and said in a low voice, "I have an invitation here, do you want to go?"

what?
What did I say invitation?At this time, shouldn't we find a place to shrink back, hide our strength and bide our time, where should we go?

Ma Yi'ao took it out and said, "The Hengtang old demon's 65th birthday."

I say no.

Ma Yi'ao said again: "I heard that she was preparing for a martial arts contest to recruit relatives that day..."
