My very cool daughter-in-law

Sheng Xun took on a debt without knowing it, and it was suspected that it was a huge debt that even if paid in installments, the number of installments would be quite considerable.

He looked at Xiao Qiu's extremely serious face that day, and originally wanted to say something joking, but he wanted to tell Xiao Qiu that he just said it casually first. He would try his best to help out whatever wishes he wanted, and he would not just sit idly by... But he didn't say anything about it.

He couldn't tell.

Strangely, Sheng Xun had an indescribable feeling at that moment, as if somewhere in the dark, he subconsciously judged that what Xiao Qiu said was right.

His subconscious acquiesced before his rationality did exist that debt.

Xiaoqiu told him that he didn't need to pay back a lot right away, as long as he remembered to give each other a little bit every time, but when he had to give it away, at that moment, Sheng Xun felt that he even felt a debt in his heart.

He hadn't figured anything out yet, but he already felt ashamed of the ghost, as if his failure to keep his promise and forgetting about it were a particularly sorry fault.

The unreasonable sense of guilt reversed what Sheng Xun originally wanted to say, and made him throw away all the unproven, temporary assumptions and jokes.

He only said "yes" to Xiaoqiu's installment proposal.

——Putting myself directly into a debt.

"Isn't it brother?"

Outside the window is the bright sun under the "autumn tiger". Even the floor-to-ceiling glass windows are baked hot by the sun, grabbing the tail of summer and developing a high fever.

Fortunately, there is an air conditioner in the room. At noon, when it is exposed to the sun, except for the occasional takeaway rider who comes to pick up the order, generally no customers will come to the door.

Lao Luo listened to Sheng Xun's latest adventure in the baking workshop filled with the aroma of minced garlic, and he was dumbfounded: "You...you just agreed? Haven't figured out anything yet? How can I hear this? It looks like touching porcelain?"

This perennially fragrant store has almost become a fixed place for several people to meet. There is one thing that Sheng Xun only recently learned-it turns out that the reason why Lao Luo suddenly emerged among the students who submitted their resumes to various units , I chose to run a bakery workshop as an internship, not only because of my personal hobbies, but also because this shop is opened by his family.

The owner of the store is Uncle Luo. When the family saw him come here to go to university, they invested in a small shop in the nearby food street. If Lao Luo wanted to stay here after graduation, he would continue to develop his hobbies. If you want to go to the unit to work in a proper manner, then this bakery workshop will be directly handed over to him to operate, and let him become a regular clerk after graduation, and work as a small store manager next to the university town. An alternative route was arranged for him in advance.

Just because the store is his own, Lao Luo entertained Sheng Xun and the others without restraint.

Today, Sheng Xun was originally Chu Shi who contacted.First, Junior Brother Xiao Chu told him two days ago that the rhino horn sachet he ordered from the other party was finally ready and he needed to pick it up in person.

Secondly, Sheng Xun happened to have a question about dreams and wanted to ask the other party.

Chu Shi has a shift at the bakery workshop today, and Sheng Xun just happened to take a break from the internship unit, and he didn't need to go to work, so the two agreed that Sheng Xun would come to the workshop to meet Chu Shi.

It took only a quarter of an hour to walk from Xiangzhang Court to the food street. After lunch, Sheng Xun arrived at the gate of the workshop according to the agreed time.

He is a very punctual person, and he usually tells the time and time, and the time is exactly right.

Unexpectedly, when he entered the door, it was Lao Luo who stood behind the counter and greeted him.

Xiao Chu's younger brother who was supposed to take over the afternoon shift on time has not yet arrived, so Lao Luo temporarily covers Xiao Chu's shift.

Sheng Xun turned on his mobile phone, only to see the apology message hurriedly sent by Chu Shi, saying that he was delayed due to something on the road, and asked him to wait in the store.

Lao Luo couldn't be more free at noon. Seeing Sheng Xun looking for Xiao Chu alone, he guessed that something must have happened recently. Sheng Xun, who was waiting at Xiaofeng's table, finally couldn't help but said, "If you want to ask, just ask."

Lao Luo lost to his leisure.

He hurriedly brought a plate of freshly baked snacks and two cups of the new cheese and fruit drinks that were recently launched, and sat across from Sheng Xun—and then finished listening to the story of how his brother was suddenly in huge debts.

"No." Lao Luo wiped his face, and was even more shocked than Sheng Xun when he first heard that he owed money, "I really think this is like a pottery."

Brother Xun, who always suspected that they were too good, was given a trick by ghosts. Lao Luo then started to analyze with Sheng Xun with reason and evidence: "Look, the general routine of Pengci is to first carefully select the target, Then start targeted, and then forcibly rely on it. If you don’t achieve the other party’s goal, the other party will insist on not leaving? Brother, think about it carefully, is this completely in line with you?”

In Lao Luo's analysis, Sheng Xun didn't know anything yet, so he was picked up by the ghost and then followed by the ghost, and then he was confused again, and the ghost said that Sheng Xun owed the debt, and he couldn't pay it if he didn't pay it, and he wouldn't leave if he didn't pay it back.

According to his analysis, at first glance, Sheng Xun seems to be really caught in Xiaoqiu's routine, and Xiaoqiu's approach is really the same as that of Pengci.

But after hearing this, Sheng Xun's first reaction was not "returning from the lost way", but he smiled and said to Lao Luo: "I remember that you were afraid of him before, and I heard that he was there when you were looking for Qi Ling last time. I am very assured of his ability, and I trust him very much.”

"It's not the same thing." Lao Luo stirred up the ice cubes in the glass, sipped on the drink and spoke righteously, "I believe that the boss is strong, maybe the strong is the strong, and no matter how good he is, You can't touch porcelain even if you are strong? This one can't be done well, or it will become him. Anyway, he knows that no one can ask him to leave, so he just... that..."

When I said this, it seemed that I forgot the most suitable words to fill in the context for a while.

Under Sheng Xun's gaze, Lao Luo thought hard for a long time, and finally said: "——Just relying on your ability to use your strength?"

"..." Sheng Xun gave Lao Luo a kick under the table without changing his expression.

He kicked on the crossbar at the bottom of Lao Luo's chair, which is not the most suitable position for exerting force. After all, Lao Luo is also a good young man with a height of about 1.8 meters, but he was kicked on the chair and slipped backwards. Cut, almost turned his back on his back.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong!" Lao Luo, who had rescued himself urgently, said repeatedly, "I used the wrong words, I used the wrong words!"

Only then did Sheng Xun retract his leg, and he didn't intend to make another kick for the lying brother.

Lao Luo moved back the chair that had been kicked away by himself, and then held the dim sum with both hands like a tribute, and presented it to Sheng Xun, and sincerely asked him to forgive him for his nonsense.

"But having said that." Lao Luo said after successfully paying the tribute, "Really, big brother, please give me more food, really you will answer everything others say."

Why is it that the live Lei Feng in the human world is not enough, and the business has to be expanded to the ghost circle?

Lao Luo was really worried about Sheng Xun. When he watched Sheng Xun, he even felt that he was watching an atypical contemporary Tang Seng.

On the opposite side is a monster with profound skills and unclear intentions. He dug a big hole and waited for someone to come. In the end, the master still had his heart for good, so he entered the hole happily and neatly.

Sheng Xun knew Lao Luo's worry, this was his best friend in college, an undisputed good brother.

But even so, he couldn't fully tell the other party about his weird state of mind when he was responding to Xiaoqiu.

"I didn't agree to everything either." Sheng Xun could only say.

He squinted his eyes in the afternoon light and looked out of the window. On the table in front of him was a packing bag he had already packed, which contained today's freshly baked snacks that Lao Luo had just paid tribute to.

It was only after Sheng Xun subconsciously packed them that he realized that he packed them without even thinking about it. What he subconsciously thought was that these things should be brought back, and feeding them is also a ghost staying at home today.

"...I might just be a little obsessed with ghosts." Sheng Xun added, "The kind in the literal sense."

Brother Xiao Chu came early rather than coincidentally, almost stepping on Sheng Xun's voice, his figure appeared outside the store in a hurry, his whole body was like a small fireball soaked in the sun, rushing into the store from outside the glass door with a whole body of heat, As soon as he entered the door, he just heard Lao Luo let out a long sigh.

"What are you talking about?" Chu Shi was confused by Lao Luo's long sigh.

He was carrying his usual small schoolbag, and the sweat on his forehead stuck the hair on his forehead.

Lao Luo had just finished worrying about Sheng Xun, when he looked up and saw the appearance of his junior, he turned his head and took the tissue box and water cup on the table: "Okay, stop talking when you're panting like this, hurry up and drink some water—you Did you come running?"

Chu Shi really ran over.

He was delayed on the other side for a long time, and Sheng Xun had to wait in the store for a long time even if he hurried too fast, so when he got off the subway, he was very anxious, so he ran all the way to the gate of the workshop, fearing that Sheng Xun would continue to wait for a long time.

"Senior, I'm sorry." Chu Shi poured himself half a bottle of ice water and managed to catch his breath. The first thing he said was to apologize to Sheng Xun, "I really didn't expect it would take so long."

Wiping sweat and pouring water so that the neckline was wet, the few pieces of paper Lao Luo drew for Chu Shi before were not enough.

Sheng Xun signaled that he didn't mind, so he took a few more tissues from the box and handed them to the sweaty junior: "I should send you a message, you don't have to hurry."

"That won't work." Chu Shi shook his head, and found that his sweat-drenched bangs had lost their sag, so he simply grabbed the hair on his forehead and stroked it upwards, not caring that he turned into a chicken coop, "I've already let you You've been waiting for a long time, if you don't hurry up, I won't be able to make it through myself."

"Are you not at school this morning?" Sheng Xun asked casually.

He still remembered that Chu Shi didn't go home during the summer vacation, but lived in the school dormitory.

Chu Shi had already sat down on the empty chair that Lao Luo had opened for him, and was lowering his head to organize his backpack, wanting to find out the rhino horn sachet that Sheng Xun had been waiting for for a long time.

Hearing this question, he looked up from his bag with an angry look on his face.

"I was there." Chu Shi also said with resentment, "A phone call called me away at [-] o'clock in the morning. It was originally agreed that I would meet at a designated place and leave after a few words. , I did the math and thought I could come back in time before agreeing."

As a result, Chu Shi rushed to the subway and bus, but the person who asked to meet was directly an hour late.

It was almost noon before the other party arrived late.

"Isn't this too deceitful?" Lao Luo couldn't help saying, "If I were you, I'd wait for half an hour, and if the other side didn't give me a valid reason, I'd rant and leave."

Chu Shi sighed: "It would be great if I could just leave."

Junior Junior Chu was full of complaints and helplessness, his baby face collapsed.

Under the questioning gazes of Sheng Xun and Lao Luo, he doesn't seem to be used to talking about his private affairs to others, but because he is already very familiar with Lao Luo and Sheng Xun, they can be regarded as friends now, and what happened not long ago The thing is really annoying.

He hesitated for a while, then continued: "But it just doesn't work, the other party is barely my elder."

Sheng Xun: "Barely?"

It is very common to be unable to refuse the request of the elders, and it is reasonable to have to wait for things due to seniority.

But Chu Shi said that the opposite person was barely considered an elder, and he even said the word "elder" in a tone of reluctance, which was unusual.

"Barely." Chu Shi repeated these two words with affirmation, and he quickly curled his lips.

Then, he introduced his complicated family relationship to the two seniors as concisely as possible.

"I and the other party are relatives who have a kinship relationship but hardly communicate with each other on a daily basis." Chu Shi said, "It's not the more common kind of no contact between the two families. It is said that it was from my great-grandfather's generation... and it is said that it was from the great-grandfather's generation." Since the last generation, the two sides have had quite a big conflict. At the worst time, the situation was the same as fire and water, and they couldn't coexist at all. So my great-grandfather and the others took the initiative to leave, and we even changed our surname. From my great-grandfather's generation At the beginning, the surname was Chu, and the surname was changed to show the determination to return from the bridge to the bridge, and return to the road from the road."

"Since then, there has been no contact between the two sides for 70 to [-] years, and they have been completely divided into two families. No one can see that the two families are actually related."

The family separation and surname change fall in the ears of Sheng Xun and Lao Luo, two young people who grew up in modern happy families, just like things that only happen in novels and film and television dramas.

No one expected that there was such a complicated entanglement behind the baby-faced elementary school boy, just like no one could have imagined that he was a mystic master hidden among ordinary college students.

"Since we haven't seen each other for so many years, why did we contact you again?" Sheng Xun asked.

After Chu Shi finished speaking for a long time, he drank two more sips of water before saying, "I'm actually not sure about the specific reason, because there are many things that the elders don't understand very well, and they seem to prefer me to focus on studying first, at least After graduating from university, I will get involved in family affairs."

But as a member of the family, Chu's room was scattered, and he still got a lot of things from the occasional conversations that the elders forgot to avoid carefully.

The two families that had broken off diplomatic relations for decades have reconnected in the past 20 years. It seems that there are some problems with the self-proclaimed "family", and they can't deal with it by themselves, so they are finally willing to give up their status and become the "family" that they consider to be "the family". The surname of Chu from a foreign family” asked for help.

It's just that this so-called family is probably used to keeping their own wealth, and even asking for help seems to be a charity, as if they are willing to contact the "foreign family" who has changed their surname.As a result, the two families still got along very unhappy, and they didn't have a good face when they met, but for some reason, even though the Chu family felt that there was something wrong with the other party, they still reached out frequently to help each other when it came to the problem of trapping the other party, and never said anything. To ignore.

"Yes." When Lao Luo heard this, he suddenly hooked Sheng Xun's shoulders half a table away, pushed Sheng Xun in front of his junior and said, "Let me first unilaterally announce that Brother Xun is a non-staff member of your family. You are exactly the same spirit of being willing to help others even though you are at a disadvantage, and it would be impossible for him not to settle in your house."

Sheng Xun calmly pushed Lao Luo's arm that was forcibly hooked away, and straightened his body that was tilted by the other party's drag.

He asked in Xiao Chu's slightly stunned eyes: "You were suddenly very busy a while ago, and you said that there were some things at home. Is it because of the same problem?"

Chu Shi was obviously curious about Lao Luo saying that Sheng Xun should settle in his house, but he answered the question honestly first, nodded and said: "Yes, I still don't know the specific question. Both families seem to have consciously avoided the junior."

However, Xiao Chu also mentioned that there is a particularly interesting thing-the elders of the two families do not like each other, and they are particularly prone to quarrels when communicating, so when they come and go, they often need to pass the message through the younger generation.

Like giving each other a secret signal, they asked the juniors to bring to each other's home information such as "the wedge is loose", "hit once", "unsatisfactory" and how much material is needed.

"Sometimes, if there are some physical materials that need to be handed over." Chu Shi added, "We will also let our juniors pick them up and forward them."

As he spoke, he patted his backpack, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't taken out the rhino horn sachet that he should have given to Sheng Xun long ago, and that he had accidentally babbled about a lot of family affairs , completely deviates from the original intention of just introducing briefly and concisely.

Realizing this, Xiao Chu's face immediately turned a little red, as if the heat from the sun before had gone and returned.

"I'm sorry. Did I get carried away when I said it all at once?" He showed a little embarrassment on his face, carefully observing the expressions of Sheng Xun and Lao Luo, "Because there is usually no place to say these words to others, so I couldn't hold it back .”

"It's ok."

Both Sheng Xun and Lao Luo shook their heads at Chu Shi.

To be honest, what Chu Shi said is very unusual, not only does it not sound boring, but it also has the same interestingness as a legend.

But no matter how interesting it sounded, Sheng Xun and the others didn't comment too much or ask deeper questions after knowing that this was the younger brother's family affair.

Sheng Xun vaguely felt that Chu Shi should be a rather curious person, and that the other party would piece together information from the scattered words and phrases of the elders. Patiently meeting and running errands is mostly to collect clues and try to find connections from them.

But of course, he only thought about this part of the guess in his heart, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with curiosity.

After listening to what Xiao Chu was willing to say, Sheng Xun refilled a glass of water for the other party who had been talking for a long time, and he changed the topic back to today's original topic.

This time without other factors interfering, Chu Shi quickly found out from the small schoolbag what he wanted to give Sheng Xun.

"With this batch of sachets, it won't be a problem for you to maintain a visible state for three years." Chu Shi assured Sheng Xun when handing over the things.

Maybe he and Sheng Xun really have some kind of "good old man" in common. Before Sheng Xun entrusted him to find more rhino horn sachets, when he mentioned the high price of rhino horn incense to Sheng Xun, he looked forward to Ai Ai.

At this time, he had already worked hard to find the sachet for Sheng Xun. It was of sufficient quantity and high quality, but Chu Shi was too embarrassed to mention the money.

However, the reminder to receive the money into account still lights up on his mobile phone as scheduled.

Sheng Xun saw the wandering of the elementary school boy at a glance. He was a little funny, and directly searched for the other party's mobile phone number in Alipay, and followed the phone to Alipay.

Transfer and payment are completed in one go.

Thanks to modern technology.

"Thank you senior!" Chu Shi reflexively said.

Sheng Xun choked on this preemptive reverse thank you: "I should thank you."

Chu Shi belatedly said "Oh".

He found that what he said was indeed not quite right, and he was a little embarrassed.

In order not to make the scene embarrassing, Sheng Xun put away the sachet, quickly switched to the next topic freely, and finally chatted with Chu Shi about Xiaoqiu's dream.

After Xiao Chu listened, he seemed to think for a moment, and when he looked up again, his eyes were complicated.

He said to Sheng Xun in a very roundabout way: "Senior, have you ever thought that the person he dreamed of might be both you and not you?"

What Chu Shi wanted to imply was the past and present.He was afraid that if he said it directly, it would sound ridiculous and unbelievable.

Who would have thought that Sheng Xun's realm had already been upgraded after experiencing these incidents one after another.

"You want to say that the person in his dream may be my previous life." Sheng Xun directly stated the words.

He raised his hand and rubbed between his brows: "I've considered this angle myself, but I just think it lacks a little evidence."

Chu Shi was holding his own large cup, hesitant to speak with a full face.

For things like past life and present life, unless you have a clear eye, or you get the chance to retrieve your memory by accident, how can you find evidence to prove that you are really yourself?

Junior Junior Chu couldn't offer any good ways to find evidence for a while, the only thing he could do was to silently vote for the option of "Past Life Memories".

Fortunately, Sheng Xun just wanted to chat with someone knowledgeable, and he didn't have the expectation that Chu Shi would be able to transform into Doraemon Room on the spot and immediately answer questions perfectly.

To be able to obtain a new past life ticket is considered a reward for him.

He sat in the air-conditioned store for a while, watching the sunlight gradually reduce its power, gradually becoming less scorching than at noon.

Sheng Xun got up and was about to say hello to the two of them and go home, but before he left, Chu Shi seemed to remember something again, and hurriedly called him: "Senior, wait."

Sheng Xun stopped.

He saw Chu Shi open the small schoolbag and rummaged through it for a while, and then the other party took something out of it, and handed him a thick envelope-like item.

Chu Shi searched in a hurry. When he took out the envelope, he almost pulled out the things next to him and dropped them on the ground.

Fortunately, the things that were almost implicated were quickly stuffed back by the quick-eyed hands, and Chu Shi also muttered: "It's so dangerous, just throw away the things that are going to be handed over to the family."

"What is this?" Sheng Xun watched in a hurry.

"I almost forgot to give you this." Chu Shi handed the envelope to him again, and said, "It's a commission for you."
