Corpse Retriever.

Chapter 262

As soon as Liu Yumei said this, she realized she was exposed.

He lowered his head and glanced at his granddaughter who was holding his hand.

The granddaughter, as usual, just silently helped her walk towards the bed. She didn't look up at her, and she didn't open her mouth to find out the truth of her words.

Liu Yumei felt relieved. She lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, and her cheeks felt slightly hot.

She had recovered, but she also remembered what happened a while ago.

Liu Yumei knew that she had a bad temper when she was young, but she never expected that she could be so ridiculous.

After looking at myself in the mirror, I realized how difficult it was for the old man to be so devoted to me back then.

Unfortunately, the old man is not lucky enough to enjoy the thoughtfulness that he realizes belatedly.

A'li moved the small stool again, intending to sit down and continue to "look after" her grandmother.

Liu Yumei raised her hand slightly and said, "Ah Li, grandma is fine now. Xiaoyuan is back. You can go play with Xiaoyuan."

She said this very naturally, as if the words "Men and women should not touch each other" and "How shameful" did not come from her own mouth at all.

And now, it's dark.

People are like this. The one who slaps yourself the hardest in the face is often your future self.

A'li put away the bench. Without any hesitation or play, she went to find Xiaoyuan to listen to a story.

Every time Li Zhuiyuan went to the river and came back, it was also the busiest time for A-Li.

Before going out, Ari pulled off the cloth covering the tablet, revealing the tablet inside.

The reason why they had deliberately covered the tablets was because they were afraid that young Liu Yumei would be upset when she saw them.

Walk out of the east room and close the door.

In the flower garden under the dam, Aunt Liu took a box of plaster and applied it on Uncle Qin's chest.

Miss Liu showed mercy when she attacked, using the flat surface of the sword instead of the tip, and what she showed no mercy was her force.

It was because Uncle Qin had a strong body. If Xiong Shan had been beaten twice like this, he would not have been able to pay his taxes for at least three months.

When A'li arrived at the second-floor terrace, Li Zhuiyuan had just finished taking a shower.

Both of them are in the growth stage. If they stay together all the time, they may not notice it, but when they meet again every once in a while, they can clearly feel the slight changes in each other.

The cuteness and innocence on A-li gradually faded away, and Li Zhuiyuan's face also became more angular.

When we really reminisce, neither of us can beat ourselves when we first met.

One is sitting in the house, with her embroidered shoes on the threshold, staring straight ahead, her eyes fixed;
One was sitting on the terrace, holding a book and turning the pages, his eyes looking down, reading with great interest.

But true beauty is never frozen, but a continuity that extends from the past to the present or from the present to the past, for example, growing up together.

The two men sat on rattan chairs and played chess. While losing the game, Li Zhuiyuan recounted his experience in the last round.

There are two key points. One is the tragic situation that I and others saw inside the Qixing Temple after we went there. That was the work of the old lady.

The other one is that Zhao Yi angrily rebuked the King of Fengdu and forced him to sacrifice two lazy dogs.

Mainly these two things are the most interesting, and the other thing is that Li Zhuiyuan is not willing to diverge too much between himself and the original body.

Just after I finished speaking, Aunt Liu's voice came:

"It's time for dinner!"

There were a lot of things to do and we were delayed, so dinner was much later than usual.

Liu Yumei didn't come out for dinner, and no one called her.

Everyone knows that the old lady is very considerate and needs some quiet time right now.

As for the excuse of having amnesia and not remembering anything, it is simply impossible to hide it from the person you want to hide it from.

Runsheng and Lin Shuyou each had a large copper basin with thick rice at the bottom and various vegetable toppings on top.

No matter how delicious the Sichuan and Chongqing cuisine is, after eating it for a long time, Runsheng began to miss Aunt Liu's cooking skills.

On Lin Shuyou's side, Tongzi and Runsheng were arguing with each other. Leaving aside other aspects, at least they could compete in terms of appetite. Even if they were too full, the two of them could share the pain of their bloated bellies.

The coarse incense was lit, and like pressing a timer, the two of them took chopsticks in their right hands and spoons in their left hands and began to devour the food.

Aunt Liu: "Don't worry, I made more soup. If it's not enough, I can make noodles for you later."

After dinner, Runsheng went to clean up the tables, chairs, dishes and bowls that had just been collected from the first floor. Every time after a meal, Runsheng would take the initiative to find something to do.

Lin Shuyou was lying on his side on the bench, his belly on his back, his eyes bulging, and he was arguing with the boy.

Yin Meng went to the kitchen and brought out the longevity noodles prepared by Aunt Liu, which had three eggs in it.

This is to be sent to Tan Wenbin who lives in Big Beard's house.

Tan Wenbin asked Xiao Yingying to bring him a cake. There must be a celebration going on there tonight, but everyone tacitly agreed not to disturb them.

After finishing his work, Runsheng squatted in front of the doghouse.

Xiao Hei is now an adult. If he stands up and shows off his power, not only the dogs in the surrounding area, but even the adults will be scared.

These bones, these hairs, these muscles, Runsheng patted the dog's back hard.

An ordinary person would be bent over by the slap, but Xiao Hei enjoyed this force very much. He stretched out his claws, took the initiative to clamp Runsheng's wrist and pull it down, indicating that he should be hit a few more times, which would help to relax his muscles and promote blood circulation.

Runsheng: "Let's go for a walk."

Xiao Hei doesn't like to go out. Apart from eating and sleeping, he resists all exercise.

But it dared not disobey Runsheng's words, because Runsheng had taken care of it most of the time since it was young.

He stood up shakily and twisted his neck, making a crisp sound. Then he stretched out his paws, pressed his body down, and stretched.

Just going out for a walk, this guy's preparations are one set after another.

Runsheng held a "cigar" in his hand and said impatiently: "Let's go!"

Nowadays, dog leashes are rare even in cities, let alone in rural areas. However, rural areas have their own pet ecology, and any dog that bites or scratches people will be humanely killed.

A man and a dog were walking along the ridge of the field, through the rice fields. The evening breeze and moonlight were very peaceful.

Occasionally, domestic dogs would come out in groups of three or five at night to run around in their own territory. After sensing Xiao Hei's presence, they would immediately scatter and flee, and would never dare to approach to disturb him.

Just when Xiao Hei was immersed in this peaceful atmosphere, Run Sheng's next words made its dog hair stand up instantly.

"Xiao Hei, will you betray us in the future?"

Xiao Hei couldn't understand complicated human language. After all, he was just a lazy dog who drank tonics and donated blood regularly every day, but he could feel the emotions behind these words.

Runsheng was inspired by his experiences as he witnessed the betrayal of a monkey and a dog, and naturally thought of his own pets.

The little black horse crawled on the ground, shaking its tail wildly.

It knew that Runsheng would never kill it, but it was more afraid that Runsheng would set it free than killing it.

They are of good appearance and are raised extravagantly. When other dogs are in heat, many male dogs will gather on the dam, eagerly waiting to see their dogs.

It's the opposite here for Xiao Hei. Female dogs in heat will come to Li Sanjiang's dam on their own initiative, as if waiting to be favored.

However, Xiao Hei has never gone out. It seems to know what is the key to maintaining its current luxurious life, so it keeps itself clean.

According to the original plan, Xiao Hei had served enough three rounds of labor service and it was time to let it go free to pursue happiness in its life as a dog.

Runsheng also let it go and planned to buy a new five-black dog pup to take over, but it just refused to leave and had no intention of making way for its younger generation to be promoted.

Seeing Xiao Hei being so scared, Run Sheng felt that he was overthinking.

He reached out and touched Xiao Hei's head, and Xiao Hei licked Runsheng's fingers with his tongue flatteringly.

"Okay, go home."

Runsheng walked back, and Xiaohei, who was following behind him, straightened his neck, took a step forward, and looked around with his eyes, like a most loyal guard.

After returning home, it rarely went back to the doghouse to sleep at night. Instead, it lay on the dam to guard the house, and would bark "woof woof woof" at the slightest movement.

The noise woke Li Sanjiang up. When he got up to go to the toilet, he started to scold Xiao Hei below him:
"You idiot, why are you barking? Go to sleep."

This lazy dog has been in the family for years, but it's as if he hasn't been raised at all. When he suddenly starts barking, it really makes the owner uncomfortable.

In the room, Ah Li stood in front of the drawing table, holding a paintbrush, thinking for a long time.

She still couldn't figure out how to draw this wave of pictures. Xiaoyuan wouldn't like her real self to appear in the painting, but she couldn't possibly draw her own grandmother, let alone that lazy dog.

"Don't worry, think about it slowly." Li Zhuiyuan took A Li's hand, took her downstairs, and sent her back to the east room.

As soon as I opened the door, the old lady's voice came from inside the house:

"Ari, pour my sister a cup of tea."

Then, the room fell silent.

Ali smiled.

Li Zhuiyuan also laughed.

A'li went to pour the tea, added some hot water to the teapot, and then poured it into the cup. It was not very particular, but it was made by A'li after all, and the thought was there.

During the time when Liu Yumei was "Miss Liu", she often ordered her younger sister around.

Miss Liu herself was also puzzled. She felt that her younger sister was not careful enough in serving others and was not very good at reading people's expressions.

But Miss Liu just couldn't feel dissatisfied with her younger sister. Even if she just brought her a glass of plain water, Miss Liu could taste it as fragrant tea.

At this time, Liu Yumei sat up on the bed, took the teacup and took two sips.

"Xiaoyuan knows everything, right?"

Ali nodded.

Liu Yumei sighed: "Okay, I'm too lazy to pretend anymore. I've already lost face anyway."

Ali took the cup back and put it back in its place.

"Xiaoyuan is a good kid. Grandma can see that he treats you and others completely differently."

Ari began to take off her clothes and put on pajamas.

"But what grandma said counts. It was grandma who was hysterical and anxious. Xiaoyuan is talented and has a bright future. He can really rebuild the Qin and Liu families.

A'li, we are not seeking an arranged marriage, nor are we using you to bind him. No matter how poor we are, we are still the Dragon King's family, and we cannot do such a shameless thing.

If you don't like it, if you think it's not suitable, don't worry about grandma or your family, we can change people or never get married, anyway, your condition is getting better and better."

Ah Li changed into a white silk pajamas and brought Liu Yumei a cup of tea. "Grandma, are you thirsty?"

Ali shook his head.

Liu Yumei had no choice but to drink up the tea again.

Then, Ari poured another cup and handed it to her again.

Liu Yumei understood and looked at her granddaughter unhappily:
"Are you trying to stop grandma from talking? You girl, okay, it's grandma who talks too much."

Ali took the cup of water away, got on the bed and lay down.

Liu Yumei: "You, child, are more righteous than grandma when she was young, and you know what you want better. Unlike me, grandma, I obviously like him, but I deliberately kept him hanging for several years, thinking that it would be embarrassing to agree to him easily.

Thinking about it now, my grandmother feels a little regretful. If she had known that the future would be so short, why couldn’t she wipe her face away back then?

Grandma, I have been spoiled after all.

And we, Ahri, have suffered.”

Liu Yumei reached out to touch the palm-leaf fan on the bed. In the past, she would use the palm-leaf fan to gently fan her granddaughter before she went to bed.

My granddaughter slept little and was light, she resisted sleeping and had difficulty falling asleep. Every time she fanned herself, she would secretly wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Today, I couldn’t touch the palm-leaf fan.

There was a slight breeze beside me.

When I looked sideways, I saw Ah Li holding a palm-leaf fan and waving it gently in front of herself.

Liu Yumei's eyes turned red. She closed them to stop herself from crying and murmured:

"Grandma's life was worth it. She was always loved by people from the beginning to the end."

……

"Ayou, go call Deng Chen and tell him to come over now."

"Okay, Brother Xiaoyuan."

Late at night, Li Zhuiyuan and others came to Big Beard's house.

Deng Chenren has arrived and is sitting on the dam fiddling with his camera.

Tan Wenbin pushed his wheelchair over and explained, "Brother Xiaoyuan, I asked Deng Chen to come earlier because I wanted to take some more photos of the children."

After the separation, we commemorate the happy moment first, wearing a small crown, singing birthday songs, blowing out candles, picking up longevity noodles...

Apart from Deng Chen, even if we invite the best photographers, they can only take weird films.

Li Zhuiyuan took out a stack of formation decomposition diagrams and handed them to Lin Shuyou, asking him to distribute them to other people and set up the formation that would be used later.

Afterwards, Li Zhuiyuan turned around and went back to the peach forest. The old lady had recovered, but he still had to settle the matter with that person.

Lin Shuyou scratched his head. This was the first time he was a contractor and faced with these projects. He still didn't know how to allocate them to maximize efficiency.

"give it to me."

"Okay, Brother Bin."

Tan Wenbin took the drawings and began to assign tasks.

Soon, everyone who could move got busy, including Deng Chen.

Deng Chen was a little surprised when he received the drawings.

Tan Wenbin: "Why, you don't understand the formation?"

Deng Chen: "The one who understands the formation best is the pig."

That pig was the most ambitious and capable among the five of them, so strong that he destroyed himself.

Deng Chen immediately said, "But this blueprint is very simple. Just follow it. I can do it."

"Well, let's do it."

"it is good."

"Oh, by the way, there is something I want to ask you."

"You asked."

"What are you going to do with this body and this identity?"

"Normally, I would give his parents alimony. This time, I plan to sell the photo studio and all the money I've earned over the years to his parents, which can be regarded as putting an end to this karma."

When the two-headed snake used Deng Chen's corpse to revive, Deng Chen was already dead, so it actually did not owe Deng Chen anything.

"Did you leave a suicide note?"

"left behind."

Tan Wenbin looked at Xiao Yingying and said to her, "Carry Benben upstairs to rest."

Xiao Yingying picked up Benben from the crib. Benben waved his hands. He knew that he was about to leave and was reluctant to leave those two ghost brothers.

The two ghost babies also started crying.

The children started crying one after another, and soon the rhythm started to pick up, and they started crying louder and louder.

Tan Wenbin: "Brother Xiaoyuan is here."

In an instant, the child stopped crying!

Benben was carried upstairs by Xiao Yingying. When passing the stairs, he saw Xiong Shan and Lihua lying by the window.

The two knew that there was an "activity" tonight and it was not convenient for them to come out, but driven by curiosity, they still wanted to take a look secretly.

Seeing the little yellow warbler coming up with the child in her arms, the two of them simply smiled and greeted her.

"Rest."

"You went to bed so early today."

I almost said, the child in your arms is so handsome and adorable.

Lin Shuyou had just adjusted a formation flag when the mobile phone tied around his waist rang.

"Brother Bin, Zhou Yunyun is calling."

"Oh."

Tan Wenbin took the phone, Lin Shuyou pushed Tan Wenbin to a corner of the dam, and then walked back to continue planting flags.

The call was connected and there was a bit of noise on the other end.

These days, if you want to make a phone call, you have to queue up downstairs of the girls’ dormitory. If you want to talk more without anyone urging you, you have to wait until very late.

"Hey."

"Miss me?"

"Well, I missed you."

Ever since Tan Wenbin came back from the sea off Zhoushan last time, Zhou Yunyun has been having nightmares about Tan Wenbin. In recent nightmares, Tan Wenbin's miserable condition has become more and more severe.

Tan Wenbin also felt very guilty. His condition, which was even more dead than death, would somehow make those who cared about him lose their minds.

But he didn't die completely and was still hanging on. So this torture would continue unless Zhou Yunyun no longer had him in her heart.

In a sense, this can be regarded as a sincerity tester between lovers, but in this world, there are probably not many couples who dare to use this. After all, when one party's sincerity is tested, the other party will be worse than death.

"I'll be back tomorrow."

"Return to Jinling?"

"Nantong."

"Then I'll take a leave and come back to Nantong to see you."

"No, I'll go to Jinling to find you. You have to study hard and try to get a scholarship. I'll have to rely on you to support me in the future. I've already bought a car and a house, and I'm counting on you to make money after you graduate."

"Are you really okay?"

"It's okay, dear. I'll go back to Nantong tomorrow and come to see you the day after tomorrow. I'll stay with you for a few more days, and accompany you to class, shopping, eating, and sleeping."

"I don't need you to accompany me to sleep, and you can't enter our dormitory."

"Woman, are you questioning my ability to deal with the dorm aunt?"

"You really are... I don't know how to describe you."

At this time, Tan Wenbin sensed that the two children had floated to his side, and they both put their ears to the mobile phone, listening to Zhou Yunyun's voice.

"Yunyun, I have two lovely children on my construction site. They have been with me these days. They are very cute and I like to play with them when I get off work."

"Really? Did you bring a camera? Did you take any pictures?"

"The camera is broken."

"I didn't expect you would like children."

"I didn't expect that either."

"That would be really cute."

"That's right. I also taught them to recite ancient poems, memorize words, and do arithmetic."

"How old are they? You are so mean."

At this time, the two children began to talk "ya ya".

"Yunyun, listen, they are greeting you. I'll ask them to perform a show for you and recite an ancient poem."

Tan Wenbin let go of the mobile phone, and the two children held the mobile phone and floated in the air.

Next, Zhou Yunyun's voice continued to be heard from the mobile phone:

"Is the signal bad where you are? There's only noise on my phone..."
