Midnight Forced Marriage
Chapter 222
Chapter 222
"What about you?" Xiaojia really pointed the "spearhead" at Chu Yue and me. Strictly speaking, she said to Chu Yue, "This gentleman looks like a graceful tree, with an extraordinary bearing, what is he doing? I I really can't figure it out."
"Ms. Xiaojia is over the award, I'm just a rent collector." Chu Yue opened his eyes and said nonsense, so that the draft was not scored [-]%.
"Ah, no wonder, he is a rich man." Madam Xiaojia clicked her tongue and looked at me again, "This little lady is blessed... Where do you live?"
"A small village in the north, on the mountain of Yinyang Village." Chu Yue said.
"Yinyang Village..." Mrs. Xiaojia suddenly showed a fascinated expression, as if she was trying to retrieve her dusty memory, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere."
"This name is very common in our area, because the surrounding villages like to practice spells, so they took many related names."
"That's right." Mrs. Xiaojia seemed to understand, and the expression on her face returned to the previous one, "Oh, look at me, I've been chatting with you for so long... eat quickly!"
Hey, no one wants to chat with you, you are the one who forced the chat, okay?You also specifically pick other men to chat with, are you chatting, or flirting?I couldn't help complaining in my heart. If Zhou Li's wife was here, I'm afraid she would jump on the table and point at him.
But I just nodded and continued to eat the bowl of porridge.
And during the chat between Mrs. Xiaojia and us, Grandma Zhou was out of the topic the whole time, and she didn't even seem to be in the same space as us.She just drank the porridge on her own, and when our conversation ended, she finished her meal slowly.
She still didn't speak, walked to the pot with an empty bowl and chopsticks, brushed it in the sink, put it there after brushing, and walked out the door.
My Chu Yue and Zhou Li's eyes followed her figure in unison, until her old and rickety body disappeared at the door, and they suddenly came back to their senses.
Mrs. Xiaojia is different from us. She doesn’t even look at Grandma Zhou, and she is eating happily, “Don’t look at it, Grandma Zhou has always been like that. She is a little deaf, and she doesn’t like to talk to people. But she has a heart. Very good, I have lived at the end of the village for so many years, and I have taken in many passers-by to live here, without receiving any money... Oh, you may not know that Grandma Zhou's wife is a local tyrant, but she has passed away."
Mrs. Xiaojia's eyes lit up when she was talking, and she continued, "After you finish eating, put the bowl over there and wash it in the sink, and just put the bowl aside. Grandma Zhou is going to rest now, stay for a while After you all finished eating, she came out to clean up the dishes. You can rest and go out, and you can come here to eat again at noon. "
"Ah, thank you so much!" Zhou Li smiled when she heard this, and rushed to eat the rest of the meal.
"Aha, let me show you something good!" Mrs. Xiaojia was enthusiastic again, she got up suddenly, went to the seat beside her, picked up a backpack with the same bohemian style, and walked back to the dining table Before, I put the bag on the table, and I didn't care about the soy sauce stains on the table, "It's rare that you are all here, Grandma Zhou is gone again, it's time for me to show off my baby!"
"What?" Zhou Li is a businessman, and he travels all over the world, so he must be on guard. When he saw an inexplicable bag in front of him, he moved his seat back for a moment.
To be honest, I was also very curious. Just as I was about to lean over to have a look, Chu Yue grabbed my waist and couldn't get through.I twisted and struggled secretly, his hands were like iron clamps, and I couldn't move.
"Mrs. Xiaojia, what is this?" Chu Yue's voice was steady, neither curious nor afraid, just a normal question, but it sounded like it made people want to open the bag and show him.
Mrs. Xiaojia smiled mysteriously, "I won't keep it secret, you see."

When the bag was opened and my three little things came into view, I panicked for a moment, thinking that... Xiaoyu appeared in front of me again, and it was... three.
three?
"Oh, this doll is..."
"This is not an ordinary doll. It's very powerful and can communicate with spirits." Mrs. Xiao Jia deliberately put on a straight face, pointing to the three little heads protruding from the bag with a serious and mysterious expression.
I rubbed my eyes and finally regained my sanity and thoughts.Some laugh at themselves for being timid, these dolls are also made very realistically, but they are just clay dolls, not Bai Xi, and they don't look like Xiaoyu at all.But what is rare is that the clay doll is made so human-like that the eyes, nose, mouth and ears don't look like they are made of mud.
Zhou Li seemed very interested, and took a closer look, "Mrs. Xiaojia, take them all out."
"Okay."
Mrs. Xiaojia took out one of them in purple and put it on the table.The body is exposed, as if the original shape has been exposed, except for the face, there is no other place that looks like a human being, and it is very small, the size of two palms, standing on the table like a decoration.
"Oh, my wife definitely doesn't like the things this little girl plays with, but you can put them here and play with my children in the future." Zhou Li looked at the doll and liked it very much, "Mrs. Xiaojia, how much does this sell for?" One money?"
"It's vulgar to mention money. My baby doesn't count that way." Even though Mrs. Xiaojia said something bad, she seemed to have offended her, but she still pushed the little boy in purple to Zhou Li, and turned around again. Looking at me and Chu Yue, "Would you like to take one for each of you and take it home to play. As Mr. Zhou said, you can leave it as a toy for the little ones in the future."
After Madam Xiaojia finished speaking, she took out the one in red and pushed it in front of us.
Chu Yue frowned, and took a closer look at the doll.I could see that he was detecting the spiritual power of this doll.After a while, he smiled disdainfully.
Obviously, Mrs. Xiaojia is lying!
"Didn't you say they can be psychic?" I opened my mouth, with a bad attitude, "Ms. Xiaojia, are there any ghost dolls that can be psychic for children to play with? Won't they collide with spirit bodies?" ?”
"Oh, oh!" Madam Xiaojia showed a mean gesture, and her laughter was more ambiguous than before. With that expression on her face all the time, she put the little boy in purple and red back into her bag, "Okay Well, I’m just kidding, this is an ordinary clay doll, 50 yuan a piece, do you want to buy it or not.”
"Ordinary doll?" I frowned, and looked back at Chu Yue, who smiled helplessly and nodded at me.
"The doll is a bit ordinary, but it's not bad." After Madam Xiaojia finished speaking, her haughty expression replaced the previous one, "However, my Madam Xiaojia has been around the world for many years, and dolls like this are also sold. There are thousands of them. Because what I sell is not dolls, but my special abilities.”
"What?" Zhou Li couldn't help calling out a little.
"I said, I have supernatural powers!" Madam Xiaojia emphasized again, and then she glanced at each of us with a slightly old and mysterious gaze, and said in a low voice, "I can see your past and present lives, It can also help you find forgotten memories."
"Huh?" I was startled, and hurriedly looked at Chu Yue, whose eyes stayed on Mrs. Xiao Jia's face, and did not respond to me.
