The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 252 Fear
Besides, I really don't want to bear my mother's anger.
Just find an excuse to shut her up.
By the way, my second brother must have been there before, and he came back empty-handed. Otherwise, why would he go again by himself? It’s normal that he didn’t bring back anything once or twice.
He lowered his eyes slightly and tried hard to think of how to deal with the situation. He raised his brows and tried hard to make himself look aggrieved.
"Mom, I really went there just now, but I was scared by you and didn't realize that you were talking about this."
The old lady looked at the eldest brother with a bit of doubt. Was he really lying to her?
He still hadn't calmed down and his tone was unfriendly.
"Now that you finally realized what was going on, tell me, what happened? Why didn't you take it back?"
The eldest brother thought about it and thought about what excuse he should come up with. He couldn't say that the head of the village didn't give it to him, because his mother, who was a big mouth, would definitely spread the news everywhere, and he would suffer the consequences in the end.
He stuttered and finally said, "There's no one at the head of the village..."
The old lady wanted to get furious, but she suddenly realized that if she continued to be tough, the eldest brother would definitely not tell the truth.
His previous irritable look was replaced by a friendly and kind face.
I tried hard to smooth out the wrinkles on my face caused by the passing of time, trying to make them look smoother.
There was a slight smile on his lips, and his tone of voice became much gentler, but such expressions were too rare and looked a little stiff.
"Tell me the truth, you didn't go, and you are here making excuses to me."
"Don't be afraid. I can't do anything by lying here. It's like I can eat you up."
Little did he know that this situation was even more terrifying in the eyes of the eldest child, who was worse than his mother yelling and screaming at the top of her lungs, throwing things in a rage.
The words have been spoken and cannot be changed easily. I am really uneasy about my mother's behavior. If I tell the truth, I don't know if I will still be alive.
She pinched the corner of her clothes nervously and swallowed, "I didn't lie to you, why don't you believe me? There's really no one at their house."
The old lady's expression suddenly changed. She was so tired from pretending to be like that just now. She felt most comfortable in her normal state.
"Where have the headman and his family been? They haven't come back yet, which is really a waste of time," he glared at the eldest brother, "I'll trust you this time."
The eldest brother breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his mother was no longer pretending. Fortunately, she believed in him.
According to what she said, my second brother should have used the same reason, but what he said should be true, and I really did run into it by accident.
This matter is equivalent to being resolved. I don't have to make another trip. My mother probably won't dare to go directly to Li Zheng to confront him face to face. I can have peace for a while.
But what my mother said is right. It would be better if we could grow some vegetables that can be harvested quickly, just in case.
Don’t think too much about it for now. After coming back from the fortune teller, I always feel a little uncomfortable. After all, my mother has lived for so many years and is very experienced. If I ask her, maybe she can help me.
He sat sideways casually in a corner of the kang, "Mom, I just passed by the third brother's house and saw something strange."
The old lady had wanted him to help the second son with the work. Now he was full of energy and didn't look half-dead at all. It was a good time for him to go to the fields.
It's really annoying that someone just sits on the kang without my consent.
However, what exactly was the strange thing that the boss was talking about? It immediately aroused my interest. I finally had someone to talk to, so I couldn't let him go.
"Tell me quickly."
My eyes suddenly lit up. Finally, someone was talking to me.
"That man was burning paper money under a tree near Lao San's house. I saw that the paper money he was holding was different from the ones I had seen before."
The old lady was obviously interested. She stretched her neck forward, wishing she could get into the eldest brother's mouth. "How is it different?"
As he spoke, he gestured, "It's much smaller than normal. I asked him where it came from."
The old lady became more and more interested as she listened. If people couldn't use so much paper money, they would have to ask him to come. That would be a good show. "What did he say?"
The eldest brother pointed in the direction with his mouth and said, "I cut it myself from the scraps of paper money I got from the fortune teller. I don't want any money. Do you think this kind of paper money can be used?"
The old lady couldn't help laughing and tears flowed uncontrollably. She hadn't been so happy in a long time.
When the eldest brother saw his mother like this, he was very nervous, wondering if she had violated any taboo.
Just when I was feeling anxious, I heard words that I didn't want to hear.
"I don't know if it works well, but if it doesn't, it will be terrible if he gets entangled by the people below. I don't know who gave him this dirty trick."
I felt daunted at first. I worked so hard for so long but got nothing in return. Not only did I have to live in fear, I prayed silently that he would not come to find me.
The old lady was extremely happy. She didn't expect there would be such a fool who would seek small gains but suffer big losses.
"You have to pay a price to get something from a witch for free, so even if I am poor like your mother, I will never owe her money."
The boss was a little dazed. It turned out that taking advantage of others was not okay. No wonder he always felt uncomfortable all over. But he didn't want to go back. What should he do?
I wanted to confirm it, but I was afraid, so I finally asked tremblingly.
"Mom, what do you think the price will be?"
The old lady didn't pay much attention to the other party's performance, and sneered in her heart at her eldest son for not understanding such a thing.
"It's nothing more than lifespan, fortune and the like. Who knows, there might be some unexpected events in the future, and it's possible that I will have to pay off this debt."
The eldest brother felt that he could no longer stay in this place. He felt increasingly colder, his hands were a little stiff, his face was numb, and his breathing was rapid. He would never take advantage of the fortune-teller again.
Seeing that the boss didn't continue talking, I finally asked the question in my mind.
"Hey~ Who is that person you are talking about?"
The boss was so frightened that his brain almost stopped working. He paused for a moment before realizing what it meant.
"Oh, they are not from our village. They must be relatives coming to visit."
There is no doubt at all. No matter how simple your thinking is, it is impossible that the person is from the village. People usually go around her house when passing by. Who would dare to take advantage of her?
"This guy was very good at picking the right time. He had to go when the third brother's family was having a wedding. He was lucky not to get beaten up."
The eldest brother's face became paler and paler, and he almost fainted. The old lady finally felt that something was wrong.
After taking a closer look, he was a little unsure, "That person isn't you, is he?"
He immediately waved his hands to deny, "No, how could it be me."
"I don't think it could be you."
He slammed his hand on the kang suddenly, frightening the eldest brother so much that he jumped up on the spot.
"Oh, right, I get angry just thinking about this. Just now two young men cursed me to death at the door of our house, but I cursed them back."
