My very cool daughter-in-law

Huaihe was not called Huaihe before.

Originally, walnuts had no name.

That was many years ago. At that time, the world was strange and vast to him. He had the impression that "the outside world is very big", but his shelter was small, with only one side of the wooden box with the fragrance of heavy wood. so big.

The square box of heavy wood belonged to a little-known antique shop.

The shop is also small, and the containers with lackluster merchandise are even smaller.

Walnut, who had a new spiritual consciousness, stayed with his "home" in the small antique shop, and he regretted more than once why he didn't become a spirit from some kind of living thing, or at least a spirit with a more flexible body. .

Because in that case, he can leave the container, get out of the box, and take a look at the outside world that is very attractive to him.

—but he just couldn't.

Walnut, who has just begun to realize his intelligence, has a strong curiosity, and completely suppresses his poor mobility to release his curiosity.

He was worried every day in the antique shop.

When will I be able to move more powerfully, when will I be able to cultivate by leaps and bounds and have a human form... When will I be able to take a look at the outside world?

Walnut was worried. Every day on the container, he looked at the boss whose business was bleak, and he also worried for the boss.

When will this shop welcome a customer who will actually buy something, and when will the boss sell something smoothly?

No matter how bad it is--Walnut thought--it's okay for a customer to buy him.

Being able to be bought away is also a way to help him change to a new place!

As the days went by, Walnut didn't have much concept of time, but he also felt that he seemed to have been worrying for a long time without knowing it.

He was only concerned with worrying, thinking about a bunch of miscellaneous things every day, and didn't practice much in serious cultivation.

But maybe "worrying" can barely be regarded as a different kind of cultivation for a weapon spirit.

One night, Walnut actually found that he was stronger than before, and he was able to make greater movements.

Can I go out and have a look? !

Walnut was very excited, and almost immediately jumped out of the box with which he was dependent.

He rolled around on the container, and thought about it seriously—jumping directly from a five-story shelf, would there be a risk of cracking the core?

Just rolling with joy, thinking.

With a "click", I don't know what kind of mistake I made today, but the boss who opened the store again late at night pulled the door bolt and walked in.

...and then happened to witness the walnut roll before it had time to brake.

boss:"……"

Walnut tried to put on a serene appearance but was too late: "..."

The boss's eyes seemed to be popping out of their sockets, he had to be blind to see the scene just now, and he couldn't see the wooden box that was obviously opened from the inside.

In the indescribable silence that filled the room, someone suddenly laughed.

"Boss Xue, this is much more interesting than what you were going to show me."

It was a very young voice, coming from behind Boss Xue, whose eyes were bigger than a cow's.

It turned out that there was a slender young man standing behind Boss Xue. The night outside was thick, and the other party was dressed in black. When he was silent before, he could barely notice that there was a man standing outside in the night.

But soon, as the young man took a step forward, he walked into the range where the candlesticks in the room could barely shine.

The person's sense of existence suddenly became stronger.

The young man has a good appearance, his hair is so dark that it looks like it was dyed in the night outside, his eyebrows are handsome, his lips are full, and the light from the candlestick can't get past his tall nose, and it can only be cast on the side of him facing the light source With a little light, there was a boundary between light and shadow on his face.

He was dressed in black, and it was barely visible until he walked into the light, it seemed to be a uniform.

The metal buckles on the belt and collar and cuffs reflected the candlesticks, and there was also a faint cold light on the side of the waist hidden in the long coat.

"This, this..." Boss Xue managed to recover from his astonishment.

He seemed to respect and be afraid of the young man behind him, showing a low-key attitude that he had never seen on the boss since Walnut possessed spiritual intelligence.

"It's been a while since I received this thing." Boss Xue finally said a complete sentence when "this" was repeated for the third time, and he continued to walk in cautiously, "It was always good before, it looks like a very ordinary thing. Every day is quiet like the decorations, who would have thought that..."

Unexpectedly, afterward, the shock was still there, Boss Xue looked at the walnuts being packed on the container, and he was at a loss for words again.

The boss originally wanted to reach out to clean up his walnut messed-up container, but he raised his hand, and after halfway out, he suddenly remembered that all the mess here was evidence that the walnut had just been "haunted".

Boss Xue: "..."

After witnessing the utensils turning into spirits with my own eyes, and seeing the scene where the other party was "haunted" in my shop, I really felt a lot of psychological pressure when I wanted to reach out and touch the objects again.

Boss Xue stopped there without stretching his hands, which was extremely embarrassing.

Footsteps sounded behind him.

Walnut saw that it was the young man who was the first to laugh and walked a few steps forward, and also arrived in front of the container.

The reaction of the other party and the boss formed two extremes, as if they were not afraid of ghosts at all, they approached the container generously and raised their hands towards the shelf.

Until his body lightened, and the field of vision on the fifth floor of the container that he was used to seeing suddenly jumped up again, Walnut Fang realized that the bold young man who was treated with courtesy by the boss picked him up directly!

It felt a bit strange being held in someone's hand, Walnut couldn't help but wanted to roll a little bit.

He guessed that he had indeed gone.

Because the young man laughed again and said, "It's not bad, I don't need anyone to worry about it, I can rely on my own efforts."

With Walnut's short experience back then, of course he couldn't tell that what the young man said was more of a joke.

He really felt that he had been praised, and he immediately looked at this person more pleasingly than the boss, and unilaterally declared that this was the most favorable human being in his nuclear life.

The next moment, the young man said something that made Walnut even happier.

He heard the other party say: "The thing that was ordered before, plus this, Boss Xue, let's make a price."

This human being wants to buy him!

Walnut doesn't have much knowledge, and there is little to think about.

He suddenly realized that he could change places, and all eyes were filled with joy, and he thought about changing places.

On the other side, Boss Xue has turned pale since he saw the young man reaching out to Walnut, as if he wanted to stop him but dared not.

The young man Haoxuan took the walnut, and it seemed that nothing serious happened. He breathed a sigh of relief, and then he had time to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Are you sure you want to take this walnut with you?" Boss Xue said after wiping off his sweat, and he confirmed to the youth.

The young man's answer was to look at Boss Xue, who raised his eyebrows vaguely, expressing with his expression: "Do you still need to ask?"

Boss Xue then said something about the source of walnuts.

He said that he also collected the walnuts from someone else. The person who sold them was in a bad situation. He first paid off all the large items that could be pawned, and finally started to take all these small items because of financial difficulties. Come out and disperse to different firms to try your luck.

The seller was in need of money, Boss Xue's small shop has been in sluggish business all year round, but he still has a good eye for picking goods. It can be seen that this pair of walnuts is in good condition, and he has already made a profit without deliberately lowering the price.

In the end, Boss Xue logically bought walnuts at a very good price, and added a real top-grade product to his small shop... But he never expected that walnuts could become fine.

Boss Xue said a lot back and forth, as if he didn't want to make a quick move.

Walnut was still a little anxious when he heard it, because he was willing to follow the youth.

It was also later that the walnut was bought by the young man. Together with the other party's original order from Boss Xue, it became the biggest deal in this small antique shop in the past two years.

He told the young man how anxious he was the night he was bought.

After the young man listened, he stretched out his hand to knock on his forehead—or his whole body, anyway, he was only that big—and knocked.

"He's terribly afraid of you, so how could he not want to sell you to me?" The young man said leisurely, "He talked so much with me, it's just that the scene has to be in place, he can't show fear, let alone show He wished he could get rid of you, a hot potato, and leave you to me."

"I'm a walnut, not a potato." A little bit of big walnut proved himself first, "I won't burn my hands either."

His serious tone made people laugh.

The young man didn't explain to Walnut that "hot potato" was just an exaggerated metaphor, because once he said that, he might have to explain to Walnut why human beings like to exaggerate, and what else is a metaphor.

He looked down at the walnuts on the table, but his thoughts drifted away for a moment, and he felt that the other party's serious and unfocused appearance really resembled someone.

"Why can't Boss Xue show his fear to you, and why does he really want to get rid of me?" Walnut continued to ask, he said strangely, paused for a moment, and then returned to the front, as if he finally realized There is also a question here, "Also, why is he afraid of me?"

Walnut said naively: "Didn't he take it back personally, and have I been with him in the store all the time?"

The young man was brought back to his senses by this repeated question.

He looked at the innocent walnut, and stretched out his hand again.

Walnut thought he was going to be knocked again, but the beautiful hand just reached out, stopped in front of him, and the human raised a finger.

"Let me answer your last question first." The young man said, "Many people in this world firmly believe that they are not my race, and their hearts must be different, so no matter how long you have been with them before, it doesn't matter whether you really have bad intentions or not. In their eyes, if you are an anomaly and a different kind, then you are already worthy of fear in their hearts, and they don't care about other things, they just want to stay away from you immediately and push you away."

"...It may also be more ruthless to get rid of you."

Walnut is innocent and ignorant, he is still learning many things in this world.

But out of a kind of spiritual instinct, he noticed that the later the young man said, the more emotional he became.

It's as if... the other party is not only talking to him, but also thinks of something else, or even someone, so the words are also faintly angry for the other party.

"But you are not afraid of me," Walnut said.

"Hmm." The condensation between the youth's brows weakened a bit.

He thought about it, and boasted confidently: "I'm relatively rare."

In Walnut's large blank cognition, he wrote down "such a person is rare".

He rolled around on the table twice, hoping that the young man would not forget that there were still unanswered questions.

Of course the youth did not forget.

The other party's previously upraised finger put down and pressed the walnut that was messed up, and continued: "As for why Boss Xue has to say something on the scene, you can't act like he is scared-this also involves complicated human nature, little walnut."

Walnut seems to understand what the young man said later, but he can only roughly understand it. Once Boss Xue is obviously afraid and sells things to the young man, in the eyes of interested people, this will become an "evil thing" that the other party is eager to sell and can't wait. The act of making a move to someone else.

In addition, the young man's status is higher than that of Boss Xue, and he is someone that Boss Xue can't afford to provoke. Naturally, Boss Xue must try his best to do things well, so as not to leave any excuses for others.

"Human beings are so complicated." Walnut sighed after trying to figure out the cause and effect.

As a human being, the young man is a part of mankind, but he nodded his head in agreement with these words.

But he later said: "It's also because you are too simple."

The simple walnut may be because he is too simple, so he always has endless questions.

Walnut hadn't been quiet under the hands of others for a long time, and he had a new question, and asked the young man again: "Then since I am an evil and bad thing in the eyes of others, you bought me from Boss Xue, and you still heard a lot about it. If you still insist on buying it after accumulating bad things, won’t others say that you deliberately bought a bad thing back? Aren’t you afraid to leave a story for others?”

Most of the time when Walnut sees the young man, the other party is the same as the uniform he is wearing, a tall and straight person with regular walking and sitting.

But Walnut has talked a lot with the other party, and he knows that the young man is also relaxed and lazy in private.

For example, at this moment, the other party stretched out on the large mahogany high-back chair.

"What am I afraid of?" the young man said lazily, "They dare not tell me in front of me, and they can only talk, and Boss Xue is not the only one who can't provoke me."

That is a kind of pride based on complete confidence.

Walnut found that he wanted to applaud this inexplicably.

He just felt that he had a very good new master who was not afraid of anything and was willing to talk to him.

Who knows the next second, the young man glanced at the western clock in the corner and stood up.

"It's getting late." The young man said, "I won't continue chatting with you today. I'll take you out tomorrow to meet someone. I'll tell you to keep silent until you can speak."

Walnut obediently agreed.It wasn't until the next day that I realized something was wrong.

Incredible!Only a few days after the high-quality master got his hands, he will be changed hands again!

The author has something to say: Huaihe: It wasn’t until this chapter that I finally felt that I was indeed the protagonist ghost of this unit
