Chapter 84: Zheng Yaqi
"Who are you?" Li Ergou said bluntly.
The girl held the big black cat and was full of death. She also called her grandfather the son-in-law. Her true identity was already determined in her heart.
Now I deliberately asked again, just to delay time and observe more.
After all, it was the first time he had seen a person who practiced the ghost realm today.
"My name is Zheng Yaqi, I am from the Zheng family in Luocheng. When I heard that my son-in-law died, I came to see him off." Zheng Yaqi said with a smile.
"Well, a woman's mouth, a lie!" After hearing her words, Li Ergou immediately sneered and whispered in his heart.
Zheng Yaqi had a sweet smile and looked extremely sincere. If the big black cat in her arms had not come to the mourning hall twice, Li Ergou would have believed what she said.
"Yes, this is your son-in-law's house and your eldest niece. If you have any questions, come in."
When Li Ergou was thinking about how to reject this girl, Uncle San suddenly said.
Li Ergou was very puzzled about this and asked Uncle San in a low voice: "Uncle San, aren't you going to lead a wolf into the house like this?"
Unexpectedly, Uncle San didn't care.
"Ergou, the visitor is a guest. Don't forget that your grandma is still trapped in the Zheng family in Luocheng. What's more, you don't want the big black cat to make trouble again at night, right?" Uncle San glanced at Li Ergou and explained.
Li Ergou nodded, feeling that what Uncle San said was not unreasonable, so he stopped him.
After Zheng Yaqi entered the house, she first greeted Uncle San and Li Ergou's mother, then walked to the coffin and began to burn incense and worship her grandfather.
However, as soon as she inserted the incense into the incense burner, her grandfather's coffin began to shake violently again, as if she was trembling all over when she was angry.
"Uncle San, this...?"
Li Ergou looked at Uncle San with a puzzled look. He really couldn't figure it out, just toast to incense. Why did grandpa's coffin react so much?
The scene of the coffin shaking was seen by other villagers who came in to help. They were scared to death for a moment and thought they were haunted, so they almost escaped from the yard.
"This is your grandfather protesting. I don't welcome this girl named Zheng Anqi!"
Before the third uncle could explain, the fat man took the lead in speaking.
After saying that, he took out another spiritual talisman, put it on the lid of the coffin, and bowed respectfully to grandpa's coffin, saying, "Old man, don't worry, we have read the suicide note. Brother Ergou and I will do our best to do what we have told you."
It's strange that the coffin only contains clothes, but after the fat man said this, it instantly became quiet.
Li Ergou knew that the fat man was just drunk and didn't mean to drink. He obviously said that he had just said it to Zheng Yaqi.
Li Ergou has seen the role of the spirit-suppressing talisman before. Even if he doesn't say anything, he can play a role as long as he sticks it on the coffin.
"Speak quickly, girl, what is your purpose for coming here? Didn't you see that, even the old man started protesting?"
Sure enough, the fat man changed his mind and asked Zheng Anqi.
However, the fat man obviously underestimated Zheng Anqi's psychological quality, and the vibration of the coffin did not affect her at all.
"I'm here to see my son-in-law off, so how could I have other purposes?"
While speaking, Zheng Yaqi had finished worshipping. She stood up and smiled at the fat man, looking harmless.
"So, is it the reason why you sent a big black cat to the mourning hall twice in a row?" the fat man asked back.
As soon as the fat man finished speaking, Li Ergou and Uncle San also looked at Zheng Yaqi, wanting to hear how she would explain.
"Oh, you're wrong about me. I've been sleeping heavily. I don't know what Xiao Hei did."
Zheng Yaqi widened her eyes and said seriously, looking a little aggrieved.
"Uh, this..."
The fat man was choked in an instant and speechless, even Li Ergou was speechless.
Zheng Yaqi is really thick-skinned and doesn't even blink when she tells a lie.
Grandpa Shenhu's corpse only happened two days ago. The Zheng family in Luocheng is far away in the Central Plains. Even if it takes the high-speed rail, it takes six or seven hours to get to Luocheng.
How could Zheng Yaqi know in advance that something might happen to my grandfather?
I'm afraid that her real purpose in coming to Wolong Village was also related to the hair left by her grandmother.
But since Zheng Yaqi refused to admit it, Li Ergou and the others couldn't do anything to her.
"Sister Yaqi, since you call grandpa my son-in-law, you should call me cousin by seniority. I just want to know why my grandma didn't come with you?"
After thinking about it, Li Ergou asked.
Grandma is the key to rescuing grandpa, and Li Ergou also wants to get some useful information from Zheng Yaqi.
But Zheng Yaqi seemed to have expected it, and she still kept talking.
"My aunt has something to do at home and can't get away, so she sent me as a representative." Zheng Yaqi looked at Li Ergou curiously and said.
After hearing what she said, Li Ergou didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zheng Yaqi is obviously only in her 20s, but she is eccentric and has a very calm mind and cannot find any flaws in what she says.
However, Li Ergou still sneered at her lies that had no technical content.
I'm afraid that her grandmother is in the Zheng family in Luocheng, and it is fake if she has something to do, but it is true if she is restricted from freedom.
Otherwise, Li Ergou's grandmother would not have been home for nearly 30 years.
Li Ergou was fine, but Uncle San and Fatty were a little dark-faced, especially the fat man. Looking at Zheng Yaqi's eyes, it was like seeing an enemy.
But this is understandable. The fat man was hit with a stone from the back of his head yesterday. According to his description, the thief was wearing a white T-shirt and was thin and very consistent with Zheng Yaqi's image.
This situation is difficult to make people not doubt it.
"Okay, then you can rest first and chat when we finish our business."
Seeing that he couldn't get any information, Li Ergou stopped talking. He looked at Uncle San and then began to continue to work on other things.
There are still five days left before grandpa’s funeral, and Li Ergou doesn’t believe that Zheng Yaqi will not leave any flaws.
You know, there are three people on their side who take turns to watch. As long as Zheng Yaqi takes action, it will be difficult not to be discovered.
However, the final result disappointed Li Ergou a little.
During the following night watch, everything was very calm. Zheng Yaqi rested on time every day, went to bed early and got up early.
Sometimes, even Li Ergou couldn't help but start to wonder if they were wrongly blamed Zheng Yaqi.
This tranquility lasted until the seventh night, which was grandpa’s first seventh day.
Because we knew that there were only clothes in the coffin and there was no grandpa's body, and the funeral time was coming the next day, everyone relaxed their vigilance.
In the second half of the night, the days of fatigue made Li Ergou unable to help but start fighting with his eyelids, and finally fell asleep.
It was not until the chickens crowed that Li Ergou opened his eyes, and then he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
