To Raise a Soul

On the second day of the new year, visit relatives.

Qiu Feiqian's natal family is also an old-fashioned businessman's family in City B. In the past, it even developed better than the Yin family, but because it has been too conservative and self-styled in the past 20 years, it has not kept pace with policy changes and seized opportunities, so slowly Just quit the position of the first step in the business district of City B, and now it is far inferior to the Yin family, which is developing better and better.

"I have two older brothers and one younger sister. The younger sister is married abroad, and will bring her family back to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year. Both older brothers are in City B. When you get to the place, you call someone when it's time to call. You just take the red envelopes, don’t worry about the extra ones, let’s just sit down and leave, and stay for a while.”

After setting off, Qiu Feiqian pulled Yu Zhen and began to give detailed instructions.

This time when going out, Yin Le sat in the co-pilot, and Qiu Feiqian sat in the back, next to Yu Zhen.

Yu Zhen saw that Qiu Feiqian was not in a high mood when he spoke, and there was no joy on his face. It didn't look like he was going to take his family back to his mother's house to meet his parents, but as if he was going to deal with an errand that he had to deal with, so he felt a little puzzled.

Why does it seem that... the relationship between Qiu Feiqian and her natal family is not very good?

The Chou family has no separate families, and they live in a much larger place than the Yin family. It is a three-row villa with a large yard. Security guards are even hired separately at the gate of the courtyard. They are much more particular than the Yin family.

"Just love these broken rules."

When the car entered the gate of the courtyard, Qiu Feiqian frowned and muttered, looking at the security guard's thin uniform with disapproving eyes.

Yu Zhen also looked over, and saw that the security guard was standing outside in winter, but he was wearing a nice but not warm uniform, his face and ears were red from the cold, and he frowned.

The Yin family has no security guards, only the nanny and the driver at home.

Qiu Feiqian is a very kind boss. As soon as the winter comes, she shifts shifts for the nannies and drivers so that they can sleep more in the morning. When the New Year comes, she personally books tickets for them, sending those who want to go home early for the New Year to their hometowns.

This is also surnamed Qiu, so why is the attitude towards the family employees so different? In winter, the security guards at the gate don't even wear thick clothes. The uniform looks good, but it doesn't keep warm at first glance.

[The Qiu family has four children, the above two sons were born to Mr. Qiu's first wife, and the mother and aunt Qiu Feiting were born to Mr. Qiu's second wife. Both wives died not long after giving birth to their children.Now that Mr. Qiu is getting old, he has retreated behind the scenes, and the boss is in charge of the house. 】

A cool voice sounded in his head, Yu Zhen looked away and looked sideways at Yin Yan.

"I'll enter the door in a while, follow me closely." Yin Yan said, taking advantage of his hand.

Qiu Feiqian was brought back to her senses by Yin Yan's voice, thinking of those two elder brothers who had lost their minds, she also told her: "Yes, follow Xiaoyan closely, if someone says something nasty to you, don't bother, don't bother." Take it to your heart, or just choke it back, don't worry, their mouths will not grow well."

"Hmph, my brother had an accident a while ago, and my uncle and uncle didn't even call our house...Mom, let's throw the presents in and leave. I don't want to see my cousins, they are annoying."

Yin Le couldn't help complaining, looking at the gate of the villa as if he was looking at some kind of scourge.

Mentioning this incident, Qiu Feiqian's expression was not very good-looking, but she quickly adjusted and persuaded: "Your grandfather has been getting worse and worse in recent years. Although he has done some stupid things in the past, it is you after all. Grandpa, I treat you well now, just bear with me, ah."

"It's not bad, just say a few words to be good with a smile... He also said that the elder brother is the star of the mourning family, and he can control the Feng Shui of the Chou family..." Yin Le murmured dissatisfied, but his voice finally quieted down, knowing that there was no escape, No more pointless complaints.

Yu Zhen heard a lot of information from these few words, and her impression of Qiu's family unconsciously fell below negative.

The elder brother who is not good to his sister, who says his grandson is the grandfather of Sangmen Xing, and the annoying cousin, how scary the picture will be when such a group of people get together.

The car had already turned into the garage following the guidance of the security guard. Yin Hexiang unfastened his seat belt and said, "Okay, it's only once a year. Let's just sit and go."

A security guard had already come over to help open the door, everyone tacitly shut up, got out of the car one after another, opened the trunk and asked the security guard to pick up the gift.

Everyone followed the security guard to the gate, and the security guard rang the doorbell for him, and it took half a minute before the door opened.

Yin Le couldn't help rolling his eyes. It took such a long time from entering the yard to parking the car to get the gift. He couldn't believe that the people in the house didn't know they were coming. Was the walkie-talkie on those security guards fake?

Really, there are so many dramas every year, it's annoying to death.

Just thinking about this, the door finally opened, and a middle-aged woman with slender eyebrows and long face and rather classic appearance appeared at the door. Seeing a warm smile that couldn't be faked on their faces, she greeted them loudly: "So it's Fei Qian is here, look at the wind outside, come in, come in, don't freeze the children... Hey, who is this?"

He said but did not move away, still blocking the door.

Yin Le took a look at her body blocking the door and looking at Yu Zhen's hypocritically curious eyes, and guessed that she would "unintentionally" block the door to reminisce about the old days, let the whole family outside in the cold wind to blow enough, and intentionally make a big fuss. She sneezed, and said at the top of her throat, "Auntie, can you let us enter the house first and then ask questions, the wind outside is so strong that it makes me sick, and it will be bad if I go in and infect my nephew later. "

"Xiao Le, why are you talking to your eldest aunt?" Yin Hexiang stopped expressingly, but raised his hand to help Qiu Feiqian wrap up the scarf. The intention of fearing that she would be frozen was very obvious, and then he showed an official politeness towards the woman. face, said: "Sister-in-law, happy new year."

Even if Si Ling didn't like Qiu Feiqian any more, and was jealous of her good life, she didn't dare to take Yin Hexiang's face lightly, so she hurriedly restrained her little calculations, smiled and responded to the happy new year, and moved away to attract people in .

From the moment the door of Qiu's house was opened, Yu Zhen felt inexplicably uncomfortable. After everyone entered the door, the uncomfortable feeling became more and more obvious. It was so obvious that he couldn't help frowning and grabbed Yin Yan's hand.

"Breathe slowly and calm down."

Yin Yan held his hand back, and strength surged in his hand.

A warm force came from the clasped hands, and Yu Zhen adjusted his breathing according to the force, and the uncomfortable feeling immediately improved a lot.

After entering the room, all the people in the room surrounded them. There were two middle-aged men, one tall and one short, and a middle-aged woman with a pretty face. Judging from the greetings between them, these people should be Qiu Feiqian's two friends. An older brother and second sister-in-law.

The relationship between Qiu Feiqian and her two elder brothers should not be very good, and she was very polite and distant when greeting her.

Compared with the attitude towards the younger sister, the attitude of the two elder brothers of the Qiu family is more enthusiastic when facing Yin Hexiang.

"Where are the children?" After sitting down, Qiu Feiqian asked casually.

"They're still asleep, it's early in the morning." Si Ling, the aunt who opened the door for them, replied, with the intention of accusing them of coming too early.

Qiu Feiqian pretended not to hear, seeing that the two elder brothers over there wanted to lead Yin Hexiang to the study room for a conversation, she hurriedly said, "Eldest brother and second brother, is Dad up yet? I heard that he was not feeling well a while ago. Did he see a doctor? What did the doctor say?" ?”

Qiu Feixiong, who is Qiu Feiqian's elder brother, stopped greeting her when he heard the words, turned his head to look at her, frowned and said, "So you still know that Dad's health is not good, everyone is in City B, why don't you know to come and take a look."

Yu Zhen was a little confused when he opened his mouth to accuse.

Qiu Feiqian is a guest, and now it's Chinese New Year, this brother's tone may be a little too bad.

"Xiaoyan had a car accident in Province H a while ago, and Feiqian and I stayed there for a while, so we didn't come over to visit him in person." Yin Hexiang answered the question in a reasonable and reasonable way, and he couldn't fault it at all.

Yin Le interjected at the right time: "Mom specially asked someone to buy a lot of supplements for grandpa. How about them? Are those supplements useful? Some of them were picked out for grandpa by my elder brother on the hospital bed."

There was a brief silence in the air. Yu Zhen had never seen such an atmosphere of going back to her mother's house, so she silently leaned against Yin Yan.

"Xiaoyan had a car accident? What's going on? It's not serious. Oh, my second uncle and I went to other provinces on a business trip a while ago, so we didn't hear about it." Second aunt Ye Mei broke the silence and looked at him with concern. Yin Yan, as if he had just noticed Yu Zhen sitting next to him, asked, "Hey, this is..."

"I love people."

Yin Yan opened his mouth, led Yu Zhen to stand up, introduced the two uncles and aunts one by one with a calm face, and then signaled Yu Zhen to call someone.

Yu Zhen obediently opened her mouth to call out, her eyes swept over several people, and she paused slightly on her uncle Qiu Feixiong, then politely looked away and smiled politely.

"Love?" Qiu Feixiong frowned again, looked critically at Yu Zhen, and said in a strange tone: "A man?"

"Where's Han Ya? Xiaoyan, you child was still clamoring for her not to marry." The eldest aunt said in a joking tone, and then laughed to herself, very abruptly.

Qiu Feiqian's expression collapsed, she stretched out her hand and pulled Yu Zhen back to sit beside her, and said lightly: "My Xiaoyan can't bear a beauty like Han Ya, by the way, didn't Jun Wen also like Han Ya in the past? , anyway, he is now divorced and single again, why not let me help you set up a relationship?"

Qiu Junwen, the eldest son of Qiu Feixiong and Si Ling, is 30 years old, divorced twice, and a legitimate child was not born, but he had an illegitimate child with a young model. Back then, when Yin Yan liked Han Ya the most , He also chased after Han Ya, for which he divorced his second wife, and was slapped by his second wife in public, which made a big joke.

Si Ling's laughter stopped, his expression obviously became ugly, and he said: "My Jun Wen doesn't like that kind of disaster that affects whoever gets hurt."

"That's right, then some people are just unlucky, and they have harmed several good girls." Qiu Feiqian confronted each other, and didn't intend to save face for Yu Zhen after the other party made Yu Zhen look bad.

Usually she was run on, and for the sake of her surname Qiu, she didn't care too much.Now that it's the first time for my son to officially bring his lover to the door, but the other party comes so ignorantly, then don't blame her for being rude!

"Okay! What does the New Year's Eve look like!"

Qiu Feixiong saw that his wife was deflated, and waved his hands with a dark face, and called the nanny to sort out some red envelopes, and motioned the nanny to pass them to Yu Zhen.

"No need." Yin Yan refused, standing in front of Yu Zhen's side and half blocking him, without sitting down, said: "The red envelope is too big, and our pockets are shallow, so we can't fit it. You talk slowly, I will take Yu Zhen and Xiao Let's go see grandpa."

After speaking, he bent down and took Yu Zhen's hand to pull him up, and at the same time motioned to Yin Le, regardless of whether Qiu Feixiong and the others replied or whether they were embarrassed, he led them straight to the floor where the old man lived.

The nanny stood in the middle holding the red envelope, looked at Yu Zhen and the others who were walking away, and at Qiu Feixiong, not knowing what to do.

"Go down! The tea is cold, bring a pot instead."

After being ridiculed by the junior, Qiu Feixiong couldn't hold back his face, and opened his mouth with a dark face. Looking at Qiu Feiqian, he couldn't help but dislike Yin Yan's tutor, but Qiu Feiqian got up and took out his mobile phone, and said, "Fei Ting should be here soon, I Go give her a call."

The children and their wives have all left, but Yin Hexiang seemed to have no idea. He took a sip of the cold tea, nodded and said, "Well, this tea is indeed cold. They say that the New Year is going to be a good time, big brother and second brother, you are sloppy Already."

Being ridiculed again, Qiu Feixiong held his breath even more, and it was hard to choke back at Yin Hexiang, causing the veins on his forehead to pop.

"Sloppy, sloppy, He Xiang, don't be offended, hurry up and change the pot of hot tea." The second uncle Qiu Feijun acted as a peacemaker, and while calling the nanny to change the tea, he signaled his wife to take the sister-in-law Si Ling away, and then changed the subject , Lead the content of the conversation toward business.

Someone gave him the steps, and Qiu Feixiong's expression gradually improved, and he also chatted about business, but his brother put on airs for too long, and his words inevitably had the meaning of "pointing out the country".

After getting old, Mr. Qiu loved to be clean, and lived alone in a large master bedroom in the corner of the first floor of the villa. He was usually taken care of by a nanny, and he didn't like to trouble his children.

Yu Zhen followed Yin Yan, listening to Yin Le's complaints to the enemy's family, sensing the looming evil spirit and Yin energy in the air, frowning slightly.

There must be ghosts in the house of the Chou family, not just one, and there is a lot of resentment, but he is not sure where those ghosts are. The aura of the Chou family is too strange, which interferes with his induction.

He probably knew that there would be guests coming to the door today. The door of Mr. Qiu's room was wide open, and there were still people guarding the door. When he saw Yin Yan bringing someone over, he immediately greeted him, and at the same time he did not forget to loudly remind the old man in the room.

"It's Xiaoyan and Xiaole who are here."

The old man, who was too weak and could only stay in bed, saw the three people coming in, and immediately greeted them warmly, and asked the nanny to set out the refreshments and fruits that he had prepared early, and let them eat them.

"Grandpa, how is your health recently? Last time you were unwell and didn't come to visit, your grandson is not filial." Yin Yan said politely after taking his seat.

The old man quickly waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, you young people have to be busy with your career, I understand. This child must be Xiao Zhen, and it is just like what Fei Qian said, she is a beautiful child. Here, live a good life with Yin Yan in the future. "

"Thank you grandpa."

Yu Zhen took the red envelope, feeling a little surprised.

After listening to Yin Le's previous complaints, he thought that Mr. Qiu's attitude towards them might not be very good, but now it seems that they are not bad.

"Grandpa, where is my red envelope! I want it too!" Yin Le leaned forward and deliberately reached out to ask for the red envelope, acting like a child willful.

Old Man Qiu was so amused by his appearance, he smiled and reprimanded him, and cheerfully gave him a red envelope, his spirit seemed much better than before.

The old man is not in good health and needs to rest more. The three of them left after talking with each other.

Immediately after going out, the smile on Yin Le's face disappeared. He sighed a long time and said sullenly, "I used to think he was hateful, but now I look at him and feel pitiful."

Yu Zhen became more and more confused, and Yin Yan explained: "Grandpa is a bit demented, and he can't remember many things in the past. From his current perception, he is a kind old man who loves his children and grandchildren."

"Gentle old man, huh...he doesn't remember all the bad things, we are the only ones who remember it, it would be great if I can also lose my memory." Yin Le sighed, as if such an act made him feel uncomfortable.

It was only then that Yu Zhen understood what Qiu Feiqian meant by "It's good for you now" in the car. This "now" should refer to the old man after he lost his memory.Before the old man lost his memory, Yin Le and Yin Yan were probably not liked by the old man.

When the three returned to the main living room, Qiu Feiqian's younger sister Qiu Feiting had already brought her family over.

Qiu Feiting and Qiu Feiqian were three years apart. In the second year after Qiu Feiqian married Yin Hexiang, Qiu Feiting ignored the objections of her father and elder brother, ran away from the house without asking for a dowry, and married her current husband empty-handed.

Her husband is a foreigner, and he was her classmate for a while when she was studying abroad.Her husband's parents are both doctors, and their family background is good, but they must be much worse than the Qiu family back then, so Mr. Qiu was very resistant to this marriage at the beginning, and even almost arranged her to a family of old friends.

After "running away", she only kept in touch with her sister Qiu Feiqian. It was not until the old man Qiu began to lose his memory in recent years that he gradually resumed contact with her family.

Like Qiu Feiqian, Qiu Feiting is also a sharp-tempered person, even more aggressive than Qiu Feiqian, because when she is abroad, she only visits her father when she comes back, and has no mutual interests. Therefore, she will say something to her two brothers and sister-in-law who like to "point out" her, Not soft at all.

Si Ling and Ye Mei often suffered from her, and they were not willing to provoke her, so after she came, the atmosphere of the enemy family became more harmonious, and no one said those ignorant bad things anymore.

"This is Xiaozhen? Come, let my aunt have a look."

As soon as Qiu Feiting saw them coming back, she immediately shifted her gaze to Yu Zhen who was walking beside Yin Yan, and waved with a smile. Yes, I like boys who are good-looking and gentle. They are not like the one in my family. They are exactly like his father, who looks like a bear. I heard that you can also make perfume. Is this what my sister wears now? I always Come and smell it."

Yu Zhen couldn't resist her enthusiasm, took the red envelope and called auntie, then nodded, and said, "If you like it, I'll make one for you when I go back."

"That's really great, it saves me and my sister from fighting."

Qiu Feiqian patted her with a smile when she heard the words, completely ignoring Si Ling and Ye Mei who were sitting on the other side without embarrassment, looked at Yin Yan and asked, "I have seen Grandpa, how is it?"

"The spirit is good. We were afraid of disturbing grandpa's rest, so we only said a few words before coming out."

Qiu Feiqian nodded, greeted Yin Hexiang who was still being pestered by the two Qiu Feixiong brothers, and motioned for him to come over and visit the old man with Qiu Feiting and his wife.

Qiu Feixiong was in the middle of a conversation, and was a little unhappy when he was interrupted, but he knew that the old man was definitely going to see him, so he also got up and wanted to go with them.

In a blink of an eye, the people in the living room all left together, Yin Le looked back and forth between the standing still elder brother and Yu Zhen who was hesitant to follow him, took a step back and fell on the sofa, and said, "Sit down Sit down, there is only so much space in Grandpa's room, let's not take up space."

Hearing this, Yu Zhen just sat down, raised his eyes and saw a figure of a child flashing by at the corner, he was stunned, and was about to call the nanny to see if there was a child running down from the family, when he was pressed by Yin Yan stop.

"It's an infant spirit."

Yin Yan tilted his head and explained in his ear, preventing him from getting up.

Infant spirit?

Yu Zhen was shocked, and looked at the corner just now, but she didn't see any children again, and her body slowly tensed up.

Among the stories his grandfather told him, there was one that impressed him the most and also scared him the most, and that was the baby spirit.

Infant spirits, as the name suggests, are the spirit bodies of babies who were not born or died shortly after birth.In the story grandpa told, most of the infant spirits are ignorant and pure-hearted, as long as they are saved well, they can re-enter reincarnation.

But there are also a very small number of baby spirits who are particularly evil and full of resentment. They can follow their blood to find their biological parents, linger and entangle them, and bring bad luck and disasters to their biological parents.This type of baby spirit is usually the spirit body formed after the death of an abnormally dead baby, and ordinary supernatural powers are of no use to them.

No wonder the enemy's aura is so strange. Once the infant spirit is formed, its power will be much stronger than ordinary ghosts, and if it inhabits a blood-related family, it can also affect the family's luck and feng shui.

Yu Zhen felt a little chilly in his heart. Judging from the evil and yin qi he sensed before, the baby spirit of the Chou family must have existed for a long time, and it became very strong by absorbing the yang qi or life span of his biological parents.

"Yo, isn't this my cousin who is going to die for a woman, why is he holding a man's hand? This is because he knows that he is too useless to deal with a woman, so his self-esteem has been hurt, and he spent money to buy a man to play with? "

A yin and yang male voice sounded from the stairs, and the words were full of malice. Yu Zhen's heart sank when he heard the words, and when he looked up, his heart sank even more.

Behind the man who was still wearing pajamas at the stairs, a female ghost with a vague face was hugging his neck and crouching behind him. The evil spirit was swirling around her body, wrapping the man completely inside.

He unconsciously grasped Yin Yan's hand that had just been held, his expression became solemn.
