Stay away from beasts in the world of Siheyuan

The night was dim and although it was a bit late, one could still see a few people walking outside on the road.

Xu Changping returned to the courtyard in the cold wind, pushed open the half-open door and walked in.

Not knowing whether someone from someone's family had gone out to use the public toilet, he did not lock the door, but left it ajar and returned to the east courtyard.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw that the light in his living room was still on.

It seems that Yang Xiaoyue is still awake, probably waiting for him to come back.

Thinking of this possibility, Xu Changping couldn't help but smile.

dong dong dong...

After knocking on the door three times, Xu Changping heard a faint rustling sound from inside the room and said:

"I'm back."

Yang Xiaoyue didn't know when he fell asleep on the sofa, and in a daze she seemed to hear someone knocking on the door.

He suddenly turned over and sat up, and when he was about to ask who it was, he heard Xu Changping's voice.

She quickly put on her slippers, ran to the door and opened it, and said with misty eyes:

"Brother Xu, you're back."

"Well, why don't you go to the bedroom and sleep? Go to bed quickly. I'll stay at your house for the night."

Yang Xiaoyue was not very sober at first, but after hearing Xu Changping's words, she immediately shook her head and said:

"Brother Xu, I want to go home with you."

Seeing that she was awake, Xu Changping knew that she was also worried about things at home, so he didn't refuse.

Glancing at her pajamas, Xu Changping chuckled, then said in a suppressed voice:

"Okay, then put on your clothes before you come out."

"Well, wait for me."

After saying that, Yang Xiaoyue was afraid that Xu Changping would not wait for her, so she turned around in a hurry to put on her coat without even closing the door.

Seeing her like this, Xu Changping didn't say anything. He reached out to close the door, then leaned against the pillar at the door and waited.

In less than a minute, Yang Xiaoyue pushed the door open and walked out.

Xu Changping glanced at the coat she was wearing but hadn't put on yet, shook his head and laughed softly:

"Why are you in such a hurry? I won't run away."

"I'm just worried that you'll get anxious waiting."

Yang Xiaoyue pulled her clothes closer and said something to Xu Changping with a smile.

After Xu Changping and she came out, they locked the door directly, then turned to Yang Xiaoyue and said:

"Let's go and see what it is that scared our little princess so much that she can't sleep."

"Brother Xu, I just took a look and found nothing."

After hearing what Xu Changping said, Yang Xiaoyue hurriedly whispered her observations.

"It's okay, I'm just going to go over and take a look. If nothing works, you sisters can stay in my room from now on and I'll stay in this one."

As they were talking, the two of them walked to the next door.

Yang Xiaoyue walked forward, unlocked the door, pushed the door open, and was about to go in and turn on the light.

Seeing this, Xu Changping quickly reached out to stop her and said seriously:

"Don't go in yet."

"what happened?"

Yang Xiaoyue looked at Xu Changping in confusion, wanting to see what he was going to say.

"You've stayed for two nights and you don't feel anything. Let me go in and take a look first."

After Xu Changping finished speaking, he walked into the house.

After entering the house, he didn't turn on the lights, but walked straight towards the bedroom according to the layout he remembered.

Soon, he was standing behind the curtain that separated the bedroom from the living room.

After listening for a while and not noticing anything strange, he opened the curtain and walked in.

hiss~

Why does it feel a bit cold?

How could there be such a big temperature difference when there is only a curtain between the rooms?

Xu Changping immediately turned around, lifted the curtain, and walked back to the living room. This feeling became more obvious.

After confirming his feeling, Xu Changping turned around, lifted the curtain and walked in.

This time he didn't rush out, but stood inside the curtain and sensed carefully.

Unfortunately, after standing for a while, he felt that he had adapted to the temperature here, but he still couldn't sense where the problem was.

Yang Xiaoyue was standing outside the door and saw Xu Changping constantly lifting the curtain to go in and out, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Brother Xu, did you find anything?"

"Don't come in yet. I'll go out and talk to you later."

Not finding any problems, Xu Changping thought for a moment and simply pulled down the curtain separating the two rooms to see if there would be any changes in the room.

As he expected, the temperature in the entire room was consistent.

The curtain in his hand was obviously cool.

It seems that this is the source of Xiao Mi's fear. This cool feeling is really not good for children.

But Xiaomi is sensitive enough and she sensed it after just one night.

Xu Changping glanced around, calmly tightened the curtain, and walked out of the room.

"Brother Xu, what is this?"

Yang Xiaoyue looked at Xu Changping walking out with a curtain in his hand, with a puzzled look on her face.

There was no light in the room just now, so Xu Changping had no chance to see what was wrong with the curtain.

Arriving in the yard, Xu Changping raised the curtain in his hand and said to Yang Xiaoyue:

"I suspect the problem lies with this curtain. Where did you get this curtain?"

"Ah! Is there something wrong with this curtain?"

Yang Xiaoyue glanced at the curtain in surprise, then looked at Xu Changping with confusion and said:

"I forgot where I got it from, I just hung it up because it was big enough. What's wrong with this curtain?"

Yang Xiaoyue really couldn't remember where the curtain came from. It might have sneaked in when she went out to collect supplies.

"I don't know yet. I have to take it home and study it."

Xu Changping flipped through it casually, but couldn't make out anything interesting in the moonlight.

"Then study it. Tell me when you figure it out."

Looking at the watch, it was already very late. Yang Xiaoyue was very sleepy. She just wanted to sleep and had no intention of exploring.

"Then go to sleep first, I'll study it."

Seeing that she was really very sleepy, Xu Changping quickly asked her to go back to sleep.

Yang Xiaoyue suddenly thought of sleeping in Xu Changping's house and covering herself with the same quilt he had used before. She felt a little shy and said to him with an embarrassed look on her face:

"Brother Xu, I..."

"Don't worry, sleep well. The quilt on the kang is where Xiao Mi slept before."

When Xu Changping saw Yang Xiaoyue’s blushing cheeks, he immediately guessed what she was thinking and said with a smile.

"Okay then, I'm going to bed first."

Realizing that she had misunderstood, Yang Xiaoyue covered her burning cheeks, turned around and ran back to Xu Changping's house.

Yang Xiaoyue opened the door, entered the house, turned off the lights and got on the kang, all in one go.

Lying in the bed, holding her warm little baby, Yang Xiaoyue twisted herself into a big shrimp.

After tossing and turning for an unknown amount of time, she finally fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Changping and others went into the room and turned off the lights, then they re-entered the Yang family holding the curtain.
