  Chapter 71 Superstition

Wu Yue woke up from Zhang Cuicui's noise.

Seeing Wu Yue wake up, Zhang Cuicui said sourly: "People in the city just enjoy it. What time is it and they are still sleeping in."

I didn’t notice it before, but I saw Zhang Jindou’s appearance yesterday, and now looking at Zhang Cuicui, Wu Yue realized that Zhang Cuicui and Zhang Jindou’s brother and sister look somewhat similar. Both of them have a pair of thick lips and Cao Yufang’s small eyes.

Thinking of what happened last night, Wu Yue didn't want to see it again. Zhang Cuicui, who looked a bit like Zhang Jindou, went straight to the yard.

Seeing Zhang Chunlan washing vegetables by the well, she walked over directly: "Mom."

"Get up." Zhang Chunlan gave Wu Yue a place with the sink in her hand: "Come here and wash your face."

"Okay." Wu Yue nodded.

Seeing that Wu Yue was wearing yesterday's daytime clothes, Zhang Chunlan asked casually, "Why did you change into this clothes again?"

"I woke up from mosquito bites at night, sweating all over again, and fell asleep uncomfortable, so I changed my clothes." I knew her mother would ask, but fortunately she had already thought of the reason.

Zhang Chunlan has no doubts about Wu Yue's explanation.

"Da Fu, Da Fu." Before Cao Yufang entered the courtyard, her voice had already come in from the gate of the courtyard.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Dafu came out of the kitchen with an apron around his waist.

"Recently, don't go to the entrance of the village when it's dark."

"What happened?"

"Just now I went to pull weeds in the field, and I heard from Aunt Liu that several families living on the edge of the village could hear women crying at the entrance of the village at night, which is very miserable." Cao Yufang hurriedly said what she had heard. out.

Zhang Dafu's expression changed: "Is there another matter?"

"It's spread all over the village, so how can there be a fake?" Cao Yufang looked mysterious, with a trace of fear: "Grandma Danzi said that it is probably the ghost of the woman who was murdered on Huanshan Road last year. Because the murderer was not caught, it is now a ghost." It’s a terrible ghost, if anyone goes out of the village these days, if they run into each other, they won’t be able to come back.”

Grandma Danzi is a famous sorceress in these eight villages. If any child is frightened and cries at night, they will be hugged to her to see if they have been scared out of their souls, or have been entangled by some unclean things. Category.

What she said was believed by most people in the village, especially some women.

It's all related to ghosts and ghosts, Zhang Chunlan couldn't listen anymore: "Sister-in-law, it's all feudal superstition, now you have to believe in science, there are no ghosts, the crying last night, maybe it's the couple who quarreled, The girl ran out and cried."

Unexpectedly, her crying last night was spread like this.

Wu Yue sneered in her heart. She didn't know whether she should be thankful now, because these people were afraid of ghosts and didn't go out to check and avoided this incident. She should be blamed. The ignorance of these people almost made her another victim.

"It's easy to say." When Cao Yufang heard Zhang Chunlan say this, her face turned ugly: "You wiped your mouth after eating and went back to the city, far away from this matter. If something really happened to us, you Carry it?"

"Chunlan, this kind of thing is better to be believed than not to be believed." Zhang Dafu said solemnly: "When you go back, break off a branch from the peach tree at the door and take it with you. Don't bring any unclean things home. gone."

Peach branches are used to ward off evil spirits. In the countryside, if any family has children who are afraid of being entangled in 'dirty' things when they go out, they will bring them with them.
