Chapter 174 The Big Liar is Coming
At dinner time.
Yan Xiaoyao quickly finished his meal, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said impatiently: "I'm going to the front to watch the show now, do you two want to come?"
Seeing his anxious look, Yu Li smiled and tapped his forehead with her finger.
"Haha, you! Why do you like to join in the fun so much? Forget it, just go and take a look by yourself. I don't want to squeeze in with a bunch of stinky men like you. You all stink of sweat."
Qin Jingru had originally wanted to go with Yan Xiaoyao to see what was going on. She was particularly curious about the differences between the rituals performed by the people in the city and those in the countryside.
But when he heard what Yu Li said, he immediately gave up the idea of joining in the fun.
Seeing Yan Xiaoyao looking at him, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Brother Xiaoyao, since Sister Yu Li is not going, then I will forget it. I will stay at home with her so that she won't be bored alone, and it's not convenient to take care of these two little guys. When you finish watching, come back and tell us about it."
Seeing that the two girls didn't want to join in the fun, Yan Xiaoyao didn't force them, and then ran out excitedly.
After arriving at the front yard.
I found out that the real owner hasn’t arrived yet!
At this time, the group of beasts in the yard were sitting together in groups of three or five, discussing heatedly.
Yan Xiaoyao usually had no interaction with these beasts, and now he was too lazy to join in the awkward conversation.
However, after standing alone in the yard for a while, Yan Xiaoyao felt a little bored and felt like an idiot. He looked around, trying to find Lou Xiao'e and chat with her to kill time.
But after looking around, he didn't see Lou Xiao'e. But come to think of it, it makes sense, this young lady doesn't seem to like people who join in the fun.
Afterwards, he had no choice but to run to the door and start chatting with Yan Bugui.
After handing Yan Bugui a cigarette, he smiled and joked, "Third Uncle, I heard that you specially invited a fortune teller tonight to look at the Feng Shui and make an interpretation. Is that true?"
Yan Bugui took the cigarette and was full of doubts: Doesn't Yan Xiaoyao usually stay at home after get off work? Why did he suddenly come out today?
After hearing this, I immediately understood that it must be Yu Li who told Yan Xiaoyao about this.
He was secretly annoyed and said: Oh, I actually forgot to tell Yu Li not to tell Yan Xiaoyao about this. After all, Yan Xiaoyao is not a quiet person now. If he reports it, it will be troublesome.
However, that's it.
And looking at Yan Xiaoyao's behavior, he probably just wanted to join in the fun and see something new.
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Hey, I'm just annoyed by everyone's annoyance! A few days ago, everyone came to my house and said that our yard has been uneasy recently, and they insisted that I help find a fortune teller to look at the feng shui and make an interpretation.
Well, as the third uncle in the courtyard, seeing that everyone is so eager to do so, I can only satisfy their wishes. "
Upon hearing Yan Bugui's nonsense, Yan Xiaoyao immediately sneered.
However, he was bored at the moment. He teased again, "Haha... Uncle San, you are wrong! You usually consider yourself a cultured person, how can you believe in these monsters and ghosts! You should have criticized them at that time!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Yan Bugui's face turned red with embarrassment. He could tell that Yan Xiaoyao was teasing him!
He immediately saluted towards Yan Xiaoyao and begged for mercy: "Oh, Xiaoyao! You'd better stop talking. I'm just in case!"
At this point, Yan Bugui glanced at Yi Zhonghai next to him and whispered, "I just saw that Lao Yi and Lao Liu were in trouble one after another, which was really scary! So I thought, who cares if the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat, so I just went with the flow."
Seeing Yan Bugui surrender so quickly, Yan Xiaoyao stopped teasing him and just asked with a smile: "Uncle, when will the Feng Shui master you found come? I have never seen a fortune teller before, so tonight I can open my eyes."
I thought to myself: If the fortune teller will take a while to come, I will go back and chat with Yu Li and Qin Jingru to kill time, and then come over to join in the fun when the fortune teller comes, so as to avoid staying here and starving with two old guys.
Seeing that Yan Xiaoyao stopped teasing him, Yan Bugui quickly said, "It's almost there, Blind Zhang should be on his way, and he'll be there soon."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xiaoyao immediately gave up the idea of going back.
Then, he leaned against the gate, smoking a cigarette boredly while looking at Yi Zhonghai's new look curiously.
However, the more Yan Xiaoyao looked at him, the more he felt that if Yi Zhonghai was dressed in ancient costume, wore a one-eyed eye patch, and held a 40-meter-long machete in his hand, he would be about 80% similar to the bandit leader who robbed people on the road in TV dramas.
At this time, Yi Zhonghai's scalp was numbing because of Yan Xiaoyao's stare.
When Yan Xiaoyao came over just now, Yi Zhonghai also saw him. But seeing that he was only talking to Yan Bugui and ignored him, he didn't take it to heart.
In fact, Yi Zhonghai also wished that Yan Xiaoyao would stay away from him.
When he was in the hospital before, he always had an inexplicable feeling in his heart telling him that the accident he had was more or less related to Yan Xiaoyao.
Otherwise, this was just too much of a coincidence. With Yan Xiaoyao's personality, why would he suddenly come to apologize to me? And not long after he apologized, something happened to me.
Seeing this, Yan Xiaoyao was staring at him in confusion again.
Suddenly, Yi Zhonghai felt unwell and felt that something strange was going to happen again.
He quickly turned sideways to avoid Yan Xiaoyao's gaze.
I kept complaining in my heart: Why hasn't the blind man come yet? If he could come quickly and finish the ritual, I would feel more at ease.
Perhaps Yi Zhonghai’s prayer was heard by Blind Zhang.
Blind Zhang was carrying the big package from yesterday and was near the courtyard again. He walked to the alley he had walked to yesterday and looked outside.
Seeing Yan Bugui and Yi Zhonghai standing at the door, he immediately straightened his clothes and walked over with his head held high.
When Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui saw Blind Zhang, they rushed over like dogs seeing shit. Yan Bugui even took the package from his hand very enthusiastically.
Yi Zhonghai saw him coming and hurriedly urged him, "Blind Zhang, Old Yan and I have been standing at the door waiting for you for a long time. Why did you come just now?"
Upon hearing this, Blind Zhang spread his hands and said helplessly, "Ah, I wanted to come earlier too! But I don't know what happened today. On the way here just now, I ran into several waves of people from the Street Office and the Joint Defense Team.
My package contained some things that were not allowed to be seen in public, so I had to hide all the way, which is why I arrived late."
When Yan Bugui heard this, he immediately asked nervously, "Blind Zhang, you didn't get discovered by them on the road just now, did you? Don't let them find you later, that would be bad."
Blind Zhang waved his hands and said, "Don't worry! I'm already an old hand. I don't know how many times I've encountered this kind of thing. I was definitely not discovered just now."
When Yi Zhonghai saw that the real culprit had arrived, he wished that Blind Zhang would perform a ritual right away to take away all those unclean things.
Seeing that Yan Bugui was still talking nonsense with Blind Zhang, he hurriedly urged, "Okay, Old Yan, stop talking nonsense and let Blind Zhang go in and perform the ritual!
It’s getting late, so hurry up and finish it and rest early. Otherwise, if you are late, you will be discovered by the street office and the joint defense team. "
When Yan Bugui heard this, he immediately slapped his forehead.
Yeah, it's already this late, why am I still talking about these irrelevant things! Then, he dragged Blind Zhang to the yard.
He also said, "Old Yi, you are right. We should focus on the business and do the ritual quickly."
After dinner, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui carried the octagonal table where they usually held all-staff meetings to the yard.
At this moment, after the two men led Blind Zhang in, Yan Bugui pointed at the Eight Immortals Table with a proud look on his face and said, "How is it? This is the table where several uncles in our yard sit when they have meetings. It should be okay to use this table to perform rituals, right?"
Upon hearing this, Blind Zhang rolled his eyes.
I thought: Bah, what's so great about a broken eight-immortal table! Besides, you are just some of the managers in the courtyard, not high officials, what is there to be proud of!
However, seeing Yan Bugui and Yi Zhonghai looking so proud.
Blind Zhang also cooperated and flattered: "Yes, yes, you are well prepared. Very good, don't worry! Tonight I will definitely use my fifty years of skills to help you get things done smoothly. I guarantee that you can sleep well tonight."
