Siheyuan: A blessed place to start

Xiao Weiguo guessed that the old lady was most likely drunk, but how could she drink alone during such a festival?

The sunlight outside shone into the room, and a figure was lying motionless on the cold ground, which was really creepy to look at.

"Brother Xiao, something's not right! How about we retreat?"

Chen Dapao is very brave when doing other things, but he becomes timid when it comes to real action.

The little hands nervously tugged at Xiao Weiguo's clothes, definitely holding him back.

Xiao Weiguo glanced around calmly and saw some peanuts on the table. It seemed that the old lady was eating peanuts with wine, and the more she drank, the more she had!

When he leaned over to take a look, the people behind him subconsciously took a step back. It was not because they were timid, but because they were really scared.

Not only was there a strange smell in the room, but it also had an eerie feeling.

The old lady's face was pale at this time, so he pushed her with his hand, and she became limp and was fine.

Just as everyone was holding their breath and looking forward to it, Xiao Weiguo suddenly shouted in her ear, "Hey, it's dawn, old lady!"

After that roar, the people behind him were completely frightened.

But the old lady moved miraculously...

"Oh my god, she's moving! She's moving!"

"What are you waiting for, Brother Xiao? Run!"

Chen Dapao ran away, and under his leadership, only three people were left in the room, Xiao Weiguo, Yi Zhonghai and the person involved.

Old Yi's face turned pale as he watched the old lady open her eyes in a daze. Her movements were so abrupt, as if she was performing in slow motion.

He stretched in a cramped state for a while, then slowly sat up.

"Hey, what are you doing with this! Zhong Hai is here too!"

The old lady should be so hypocritical. When she saw Xiao Weiguo for the first time, she looked disgusted, but when she turned to face Lao Yi, she was smiling from ear to ear.

Xiao Weiguo clapped his hands and cleaned the dust off his body, saying that it was a good thing that he didn't dislike the dirty and messy room.

"Old lady, if it weren't for me, you would have been half buried in the pit pushed by Old Yi, waiting for the cash! There's no need to thank me, I have always been kind-hearted. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Amen!"

As he said that, Xiao Weiguo glanced at Lao Yi, then walked out with big strides with his hands behind his back. As soon as he went out, he took a deep breath of air.

To be honest, the old lady's house is not much better than the Jia family's.

Seeing that the old lady was alive again, Yi Zhonghai became completely dull. He stared at the old lady with dull eyes, his expression full of regret.

"Zhong Hai, what's wrong with you?"

The old lady saw that he had something to hide, so she tried to comfort him, but who would have thought that Yi Zhonghai would be so upset that he could not even cry.

"My dear ancestor, what are you doing? Ah..."

As Yi Zhonghai sighed to the sky, the old lady was completely confused. She rubbed her eyes helplessly and tried to sit up, but perhaps she was numb from lying down, and her legs and feet were not very flexible at the moment.

Then he waved towards Yi Zhonghai, indicating that he should come over and help.

But Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he felt dizzy. If he hadn't been afraid that others would see him treating the old man badly, he would have wanted to just shake his hand and leave.

Although the old lady was old, she had a very sensitive nose, like an old naughty boy. When Yi Zhonghai got a little closer, she sniffed hard and smelled a strange odor.

So he glared at Lao Yi and said, "You haven't showered in the past few days. You smell so bad! Wen Ling is the same. I don't know how to wash your clothes."

The deaf old lady only had a nose for breathing and her eyes were unclear. Her words made Yi Zhonghai so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

"Old lady, please stop scolding me. What on earth is wrong with you? Why do you lie on the ground in the middle of the night? You are acting like a ghost. You scared all the children in the yard."

Old Yi slapped his thigh and said helplessly, while the old lady looked confused.

"Hey, didn't I just drink a little before going to bed last night? I slept a little too long, so I scared you guys?"

Drink it?

Yi Zhonghai recalled in confusion that when he first arrived at the old lady's house and kicked open the door last night, he did hear the sound of glass bottles clanging behind the door. Could it be a wine bottle?

But if you are drunk, just lie down and sleep. Why are you shouting for no reason?

"So you were frightened by the earthquake, so you shouted that way?"

The older woman became more confused as she listened, her eyes widened, "What? An earthquake?"

Yi Zhonghai slapped his head and felt like his heart was about to explode.

This is not just drinking a little bit of wine, he is clearly an alcoholic!

Well, not only did I lose a group of people and cause a huge misunderstanding, but if the situation outside hadn’t been tense at this moment, the fact that I wet my pants would have spread outside the city.

But who can I blame for this? It's all my fault for being careless last night and being scared by the sudden earthquake.

Even after a night, the house still smelled of wine lees.

"Come on, old lady, let me help you rest. No matter what, I hope you are okay."

Yi Zhonghai did a very good job on the surface. Even though he was completely embarrassed, he still helped the old lady to lie on the kang to rest.

The old lady's misunderstanding was resolved. The first few people who arrived at the front line last night were silently wiping the sweat from their faces, wanting to explain but unable to make sense.

Only a few of them could have turned an old lady who was sleeping soundly on the ground into a corpse.

"Uncle, this is also your fault. We, the younger generation, have not experienced as much as you have. We don't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, but you are different. You are a uncle! You didn't notice this, so it's normal for us to be short-sighted."

"That's right. If this gets out, people will laugh their heads off. Just pretend I didn't go there last night."

Chen Dapao was also a face-conscious person. He was half responsible for this huge misunderstanding, along with Da Liu. The two of them got together and made the matter sound more and more mysterious, to the point that everyone believed that the old lady had suddenly passed away.

"Uncle, this matter..."

"Okay, let's stop wasting time on this. We can't go home now, and there's no news from the company. We have to think about what to do quickly, otherwise we'll have to feed mosquitoes all night long."

Liu Haizhong was genuinely concerned about everyone. Because of the old lady's big mistake last night, everyone was nervous and didn't think there was anything wrong with sleeping outdoors.

But who can stand having to stay outside all night?

"I heard that someone in the front yard has returned home. Let's go home tonight too. What are you afraid of? The house didn't collapse despite the huge earthquake last night, so there shouldn't be any problems today!"

Liu Cixin was talking nonchalantly, but the next second the reality came to him!

If you say that you can feel the tremors at night, perhaps the level is not that strong. After all, when it is late at night and everyone is asleep, you can notice the slightest movement.

But it was broad daylight now and I could feel the ground shaking. If this continued, who would dare to go home and sleep?
