Chapter 8 Scraping
Lou Manyue tinkered in the kitchen of the village chief’s house for a while. After packing up the pickled jar, she originally planned to stop and go back, but now it is already past one o’clock in the morning.
On the quiet night, except for the occasional barking of dogs, the whole village fell asleep. The building, which came out of the village chief's kitchen, suddenly heard a voice from the room on the left.
It's not very big, but Lou Manyue has mental power now, so she can still hear something vaguely. Maybe it's still a little far away, and it's not very clear about the content.
Lou Manyue walked gently to the windowsill of the room. There was not much light inside. He probably had a flashlight spoke in the quilt or had those soybean oil lamps lit.
"Old man..., the little girl Lou Manyue is really dead. Will the eldest son be able to take over her job in the factory tomorrow?" The old woman's voice trembled.
"Are you sure she is dead?" The sinister voice was the voice of the village chief Lou Yuan.
Lou Manyue confirmed that this was the room of the village chief and his wife. He took out a black cloth from the space to cover himself, and lay down under the window and eavesdropped.
"I went to her house in the evening. My body was cold and cold. I had more intakes and less air. When I went there in the evening, there would be a sound of ghosts crying there." Li Dani's trembling voice appeared again.
"Nonshuo, I haven't really seen anyone die. Don't draw conclusions so quickly. You go and hang out again tomorrow morning." The village chief Lou made the original decision.
"No..., her yard is too scary, I won't go." Li Dani murmured in fear.
"You must go and confirm whether she is dead." Village chief Lou Yuan said viciously.
"We have to announce in the village that they terminated the engagement. Baoguo cannot bear the bad reputation. Baoguo will go to college in the future." Li Dani was a little proud of her words.
"Okay, tomorrow you go and confirm that she is dead, I will announce it in the village." Lou Yuan looked at Li Dani in an unknown way, nodded and said.
Lou Manyue was squatting outside and eavesdropping. She grinded her back teeth and penetrated her mental power into the room. These two immortals were really good at calculating. The fiancé who was overwhelmed there went to the factory to take over her job. Here she announced the cancellation of the engagement in the village and not let her son bear the reputation of defeating others. It was really easy to calculating.
Lou Manyue's mental power spread to the whole room. There were some money and tickets in the kang cabinet on the earthen kang. Lou Manyue looked at it and found that there were more than 300 yuan of large-scale cash, some scattered tooth tickets, as well as some cloth tickets, industrial coupons, towel tickets, soap tickets, etc. These were all the benefits the original owner received in the factory.
When he returned to the village, he was cheated by Li Dani. Even the bicycle tickets, sewing air tickets, and radio tickets that the original owner helped to exchange last month were also included.
Li Dani is like a mouse, and she must be more than this place where money is hidden. Lou Manyue swept the cabinets in the room, mouse holes, etc.
There was no money hidden in the cabinet, even the mouse hole had more than 200 yuan in cash, which was all great unity. It was also rolled with oil paper and wrapped with a layer of rag to hide it there.
It is summer now that there is no fire kang, and even the sleeping earthen kang is hidden under the money, tickets, a pair of Lou Manyue and his son's engagement at that time, a jade pendant, a gold bracelet, a paper with a village seal, and a wedding letter with a commune seal.
