Hell App - Chapter 87
Chapter Eighty Seven
In front of the farmhouse.
An old lady who was fairly tough was sitting on Mazhazi, squinting her eyes and basking in the sun.
Her expression was full of joy, but the wrinkles on her face indicated that she was no longer young.
A yellow turban covered most of her silver hair, and she bit the dried sweet potato in her hand one after another. Seeing two faceless young people approaching to talk to her, she was not stingy, grabbing two sticks at will and handing them to the two people, beckoning them to eat as they please.
Ye Shangyu took the dried sweet potatoes and put them directly in his pockets, not planning to eat them at all.
Bai Yan is not as cautious as she is, and feels that the food that the ghost cooks for them is also not worse than that of an old lady. He took a bite of dried sweet potatoes, sweet and delicious.
He finished eating in twos and threes, and when he saw it, the old lady gave him another one. Bai Yan also shamelessly took it. There was no embarrassment at all. It can be said to be very shameless.
While Bai Yan was eating dried sweet potatoes, Ye Shangyu said, “Old man, do you know Dongzi?”
“Tongzi? This is a boy from our village. Do you know him?”
“Well, we met a boy in the graveyard yesterday. He sang a strange nursery rhyme saying that the Dongzi family had been killed. It sounds scary. Isn’t it true?”
The old lady chuckled her mouth and swallowed the sweet potatoes: “Of course it’s not true. Dongzi’s family is fine. They have all gone to the city to enjoy their luck. Dongzi’s father and Dongzi’s mom have found jobs in the city. The young and old moved into the city, how could it be the same as what he said.”
“Then why does he sing like this?” After thinking about it, Ye Shangyu also took out the dried sweet potato and gnawed little by little like a little hamster.
The old lady was very happy to see that the girl also started to eat dried sweet potatoes.
Therefore, she was more talkative, and sighed: “It’s also pitiful to say that the boy you saw at the grave should be Tie Zhu.”
“Tie Zhu’s parents died a long time ago, and they don’t have any relatives. Tie Zhu grew up eating a hundred food, and he would give him something to eat, so he lived in such a foolish manner.
Tie Zhu doesn’t have a grandma, no one cares about him, he doesn’t go to school, he runs in the wild all day, and slowly he gets a little crazy. Recently, he is full of nonsense. Don’t be frightened by him. ”
Seeing the two men were silent, the old lady sighed and said again: “Tie Zhu is a good boy, don’t blame him. If you have parents, he won’t be like this. Now all the able people in the village go I went to work in the city, and all that was left was old bones. Taking care of my grandson would be very difficult, and I really don’t have the energy to take care of one more.”
The two nodded to express understanding, and chatted for a while, before Bai Yan suddenly said, “Grandma, do you have a grandson?”
“It’s vacation. Cats are playing on the kang at home on Saturdays and Sundays. I’ll call it out for you to see.”
I remembered that my grandson would play with her mobile phone as soon as she got up from the kang in the morning. The old lady frowned and shouted in full anger: “Grandson, come out to meet the guests, don’t climb the kang and play with the mobile phone! You have been playing for a day! ”
“Milk, the morning hasn’t passed yet!” A boy inside said: “After five days of school, I’m exhausted, so let me play for a while!”
“What are you playing, you don’t even listen to grandma’s words. Dog eggs! Come out for me!”
“puff–”
Upon hearing the name Goudan, Bai Yan couldn’t help laughing.
Inside, a stupid boy wore cotton shoes and walked out with blushing face, yelling: “Milk, don’t call me a dog egg!”
Seeing the grandson coming out, the old lady made a big deal and gave Bai Yan a dried sweet potato. “This is my grandson. He doesn’t learn well all day, and he stares at the phone all day long.
Usually, his academic performance counts down the whole class, and at the end of the semester, he is criticized and named by his teacher. Doing nothing at home, just watching his grandpa go to the ground, he will not help. Even the girl next door, Lan Lan, will help the family with work, and she doesn’t know how to learn from your sister Lan Lan…”
“Milk!” The boy interrupted her angrily: “Xu Lanfang is also two years older than me, and she used to play mobile phones, playing much better than me, so why should I learn from her?”
The old lady stuffed a dried sweet potato into the boy’s mouth, and said, “Didn’t she start to work recently? You can’t just stare at someone who is good to learn? Lanlan, if grandma’s body is dysfunctional, she can immediately help the family. Work, it’s just you. If your grandma and grandpa suddenly fail, can you take care of your studies with your family?”
“…” The boy was speechless, or maybe he was chewing dried sweet potatoes so he didn’t have time to speak.
However, the boy did not speak, but Bai Yan had something to say.
He took the stubbornness and said with deep feelings: “Grandma, you are too right! Boys should be responsible! When my dog egg and I were so big, my dad died a long time ago, and my mother was the only one to support the family. I see me Mom worked so hard, so she took the initiative to take on all the housework at home. Of course, my academic performance has not fallen, and I am always among the top few in the class.
Grandma, let me tell you something in my heart. It’s better for boys to have some hardship. Children can’t be spoiled. Sometimes when they are too accustomed to children, they will become idiots who don’t know how to learn…”
Before Bai Yan’s words were finished, Ye Shangyu’s action of biting the dried sweet potatoes suddenly stopped.
She looked at Bai Yan with an indescribable gaze, and her heart was filled with inconceivability. If I remember correctly, when I checked your family information, your father was fine!
When did your dad die?
I do not know how!
Ye Shangyu secretly said in his heart that the dog couldn’t change eating shit, and he didn’t expose him on the face.
On the other side, the boy’s face was also full of humiliation, and his face turned red when he heard the words of a “dog egg”.
Although he is still in elementary school, he is not stupid. He can see that this man is clearly on purpose!
Are you embarrassed to arrange me after eating my food?
Hearing that Bai Yan is still brainwashing his grandma, letting grandma discipline him severely and confiscate his mobile phone so as not to turn him into a idiot.
The boy was so angry that his head was smoking, he stretched out his hand to grab the dried sweet potatoes in Bai Yan’s hand, but he stretched out his hand… he couldn’t reach it.
Bai Yan quickly threw the dried sweet potato into his mouth, and naturally touched another piece from the old lady’s hand.
When the old lady was not paying attention, Bai Yan showed the boy a provocative smile, making the boy even more angry.
Seeing that Bai Yan was about to cry the boy, Ye Shangyu secretly kicked him.
Thinking of what the two were here to do this time, Bai Yan really curbed a little, closed his mouth obediently, and finally remembered that they were going to do business.
Bai Yan had already made the boy out of anger, and Ye Shangyu felt that he could not be counted on, so he asked Bai Yan to chat with the old lady, and it took a lot of effort to coax the boy.
When the relationship with the boy was settled, Ye Shangyu tentatively said: “You just said that Xu Lanfang also likes to play with mobile phones. What was she like before?”
“Her grandma suddenly became dysfunctional a few months ago, and she started to work. She used to like to play mobile phones very much, and her academic performance was about the same as mine…” The boy mumbled: “My grandma is fine. I don’t want to follow her!”
“What does she usually like to play on mobile phones?” Ye Shangyu said in a persuasive way: “Does she like to watch scary things? For example, haunted stories and movies.”
“She likes to read novels and watch videos… By the way, she also likes to watch slow-hands, especially to watch the short videos recorded inside.” The boy recalled: “The haunted things, she likes to watch supernatural shorts in slow-hands, anyway. I don’t like to watch it, it’s scary, and it’s not interesting at all.”
Hearing that Xu Lanfang really has the habit of watching supernatural videos, Ye Shangyu’s eyes lit up, thinking that he had discovered something.
So she hurriedly asked: “Do you know that she usually watches those supernatural short films? Who is her favorite anchor?”
“I don’t know…” The boy looked dazed: “I don’t like watching.”
“Then do you know what her screen name is? What is her slow account name?”
“Uh, her screen name is usually Guess who I am. I didn’t pay attention to it, but it should be called this too.”
After asking a few more words, knowing that the boy really couldn’t ask anything, Ye Shangyu let him go and chatted with him casually.
On the other side, Bai Yan talked with the old lady for a long time and got some gains.
Just like Gina and the others asked, the old lady also insisted that no one was missing in the village.
However, Bai Yan has gained a lot of inspiration from the experience of Dongzi’s family, so he changed his conversation, not asking who was missing, but who had left the village recently.
Sure enough, just like Dongzi’s family, a large number of villagers and families in the village have moved out of the village in the past few months, and they have all gone to the city to enjoy the happiness.
Although Bai Yan doesn’t know what the world is like, but to live in the city is to enjoy the blessing. Presumably, the conditions in the city must be much better than in the countryside.
According to the “left-behind children” village described by the anchor Bai Cui, generally speaking, the rent in the city is high and the price of goods is high. Therefore, it is the adults who go to the city to work. Going to school is cheap and the cost of living is also low.
However, a family of several moved to the city, and even the land and old house are ignored. Unless all the villagers win the lottery, otherwise the family will be dragged along. Only the husband and wife will not be able to afford the family. The cost of the city.
Bai Yan thought about it carefully and knew that these people who went to the city were the missing persons mentioned in the post.
Talking to this family separately, Bai Yan and Ye Shangyu had their own gains.
While talking, a dirty boy came over holding the ball.
Although the old lady is old, her eyes are quite good.
Seeing the boy from a distance, the old lady called out loudly: “Tie Zhu, come and eat dried sweet potatoes!”
The boy’s ears holding the ball were also very alert. When he heard something to eat, he ran over like the wind, and didn’t even want the ball.
Seeing that he was going to grab the dried sweet potatoes with her dirty little hands, the old lady pulled out a handkerchief from her trouser pocket and wiped it clean for the boy. Then she put the dried sweet potatoes in his hands: “Wash your hands before you can eat them. Mud will get sick if you eat it.”
The boy nodded indiscriminately, grabbed the dried sweet potato and stuffed it in his mouth, wondering if he remembered it.
After swallowing the dried sweet potatoes, the boy picked up the ball, patted it, and began to sing the nursery rhyme he made up again.
The old lady frowned when she heard that the boy had cursed Dongzi’s family.
She opened her mouth to tell the boy to stop singing, but before she said anything, the boy suddenly shut up.
He looked at an old man who came over with a smirk, he looked at the old man, then looked back at the old lady and the dog, his eyes were full of envy.
Soon, he suddenly picked up the ball, ran away in a hurry, and disappeared into the trail in the blink of an eye.
