Chapter 55 Legend
"Ada also said this. It was an old bachelor from Kinmen Village who ate Wong Tai Sin's meat, and later took Wong Tai Sin's skin to sell at the market."
"As soon as he rushed home from the market, he died at the door of his house. His belly was as bulging as a ball. Ida said that Wong Tai Sin was still alive and cast a spell in his belly."
Liu Nier also followed suit.
"Ah? Really?"
Xizi's little face suddenly turned pale.
"Of course it's true! Later, Wong Tai Sin ate all the heart, lungs and intestines of the old bachelor and crawled out of his throat. From then on, no one in Kinmen Village dared to mess with Wong Tai Sin."
Liu Nier said seriously.
"Well, that's it. My grandpa said the same thing. It's scary."
Xiaomori also nodded seriously, indicating that Liu Nier was right.
Xizi was even more scared now.
The little girl's innocent and ignorant eyes were filled with deep fear.
However, children like to listen to these bizarre stories the most. The more scared they are, the more they like to listen, and the more they want to understand more.
"Well, I'll ask Liu Tiedan on Monday to see if this is the case in their village."
Xizi said with a trembling voice.
"Liu Tiedan doesn't know what he does. He only cries and makes reports to the teacher. I don't like to play with him."
Liu Nier pursed her lips and snorted, her expression particularly unhappy.
Then he said to Xizi: "Xizi, don't play with him either. If you want to hear Huang Taixian's story, just go back and ask Grandpa Sangui. Grandpa Sangui often goes to Kinmen Village to do carpentry work, and he knows everything about Kinmen Village."
"
"Okay, then I will go back and ask Grandpa this noon, instead of asking Liu Tiedan."
Xizi nodded honestly, listening to Liu Nier's words.
Chen Ling looked on and wanted to laugh.
These little kids are at the age when they are innocent and simple. One day they have conflicts and never interact with each other, but the next day they are as good as brothers or sisters.
Carefree, no worries.
As for the legend of the weasel that Liu Nier and Komori told him, he didn't take it to heart at all.
This thing is just a vengeful guy. If it were really as mysterious as he said, wouldn't weasels rule the world?
"Aling, come and help me move the cabinet."
At this time, Wang Susu's voice came from the room.
"Hey, here we come!"
Chen Ling hurriedly responded and walked into the room.
The three little dolls also jumped up and down behind.
"Aunt Susu, what are you doing?"
Seeing Wang Susu standing in front of the wardrobe on a stool, Xizi couldn't help but asked curiously.
"The weather is getting warm, and my aunt was going to dry the bedding, but she accidentally dropped something on the wardrobe into the gap between the wardrobe and the wall behind it."
Wang Susu got off the stool and touched Xizi's little head.
"What did you say to your uncle Fugui just now? I heard Liu Nier yelling. Did you get criticized at school again?"
"No, I have been very obedient this week."
Liu Nier suddenly shouted loudly, "I was telling Uncle Fugui about Wong Tai Sin..."
Then Liu Nier told the story again.
Wang Susu laughed after hearing this: "You guys, it's the adults in the family who are trying to scare you..."
"I've also heard about that man in Kinmen Village. It wasn't Wong Tai Sin who took revenge on him. It was him who stole raw wheat from other people's fields. He ate too much and was swollen to death by the wheat grains."
"Ah? That's it!"
"Then why did he eat raw wheat? Why did he eat it without cooking it?"
The little dolls asked curiously.
“Because we were poor at that time, and the famine had just passed, and everyone had little food at home. If you took other people’s wheat back home secretly, you would be beaten to death if you were found, so you ate in the fields before going back.
.”
"It's because he was hungry, otherwise why did he eat weasels before?"
Wang Susu explained.
After hearing these words, the little kids nodded ignorantly. Although they didn't understand much about famine, they felt that what Wang Susu said made sense.
"After listening to what you said, Susu, then I know who he is."
"This old bachelor has made a lot of jokes before. The most famous one was when he encouraged people to do good deeds and strive to be an unsung hero many years ago. He got excited after hearing this. In order to become an unsung hero, he got up at two or three o'clock in the night.
All the unripe corn in the field was thrown away, and there was a whole three acres of corn, which made the owner so angry that he beat him half to death."
At this time, Chen Ling moved the wardrobe, packed up the fallen things, and then spoke.
"I know the unsung hero is Lei Feng. Learn from Lei Feng. There is a festival in his honor on the calendar."
Liu Nier raised her hands and shouted loudly.
"A festival commemorating Lei Feng? Is it on the calendar? Why didn't I know?"
Wang Susu was confused after hearing this.
Chen Ling was also stunned, but he quickly reacted and couldn't help laughing: "You're right if you don't know. That's Frost's Descent on the calendar. This kid Liu Ni'er has just been in school for a few days and hasn't even written a word yet."
Do you understand?"
Wang Susu was stunned for a while, and it took her a while to realize what she was doing. She laughed so hard that tears came out.
"Liu Nier, you are really..."
There are endless jokes from later generations, and everyone is very funny.
But now there are not so many bells and whistles, and a single mistake in reading can make Wang Susu laugh until her stomach hurts.
Liu Nier failed to show off, and when she saw Wang Susu laughing like this, she scratched her head and laughed silly.
…
"Sell the chicks, sell the chicks, exchange the old hens for chicks~~~"
At this time, a long-throated shout came from outside the wall, coming from far away.
"Hey, is this the chicken seller here? Come on, let's go out and have a look..."
When Chen Ling heard this, he called Wang Susu to go out.
The number of chickens at home has been reduced by weasels, so it’s time to add more.
When I went out, I saw an old man wearing a straw hat carrying two very flat baskets on a pole and walking towards the street of the village.
"Uncle, how do you sell the chickens?"
Chen Ling shouted.
"An old hen can be exchanged for thirteen chicks, and you can buy them for two cents each."
The old man came over carrying a pole and opened the lid of the basket.
Suddenly, one or two hundred chickens, some fluffy, some yellow, some black, started squawking.
Liu Nier and the other children hurriedly gathered around, stretching their necks and looking at it with smiles.
"Grandpa, what kind of chicken is this? Why is it different from the chicks my mother hatched?"
"They are all grass chickens, what's the difference?"
The old man grinned and stretched out his hand to block the two chicks that wanted to jump out.
Then he raised his head and said to Chen Ling: "I am from Taoshugou. I come to your village every spring to sell chickens. You can buy them with confidence. If you die, I will replace them."
Kinmen Village and Taoshugou are the two villages closest to Chenwangzhuang.
Kinmen Village is in the north and Taoshugou is in the south. These two villages are not big and have no schools. Many children in the village come to Chenwangzhuang to attend primary school.
Therefore, people from the three villages come and go quite a lot on weekdays.
"Okay, pick twenty for me first."
As long as there is a cave, Chen Ling is not afraid of raising chickens to death.
Then he asked Wang Susu: "Twenty will do?"
"Okay, we can't raise more than that."
Wang Susu nodded obediently and smiled lightly at him.
When the old man saw it, he said cheerfully: "You two are a good couple, you look like you can live a good life."
"Now go out and take a look. It's rare to see a man who has two or three babies at home and can still talk to his wife in a nice voice. You baby girl is a lucky one."
After Wang Susu heard this, she suddenly blushed and hurriedly waved her hands.
