vaguely.

On and off.

A moment followed by another.

Li Xibao tossed and turned, fell asleep and woke up, woke up and fell asleep again.

It wasn't until dawn the next morning that she opened her eyes in a daze, kicked the quilt, and sat up.

"Xi Bao, Xi Bao, come out for dinner." Outside, there was the sound of Sun Cuihua knocking on the door.

"Oh, here we come." Li Xibao lacked interest, lost his appetite, and staggered out the door.

"Hey, Xi Bao, why do you have such big dark circles?" Sun Cuihua cried out when she saw her.

"Ah... dark circles..." Li Xibao rubbed his eyes, "I didn't sleep well."

"Me too." Li Dahu also came out, and sat down on the edge of the stool with a plop, almost falling into a squatting position.

"Hey, mother, I'm startled."

"Dahu, why are you like this?"

Li Xibao opened his eyes and looked at Li Dahu. He also had two big dark eye circles, like a giant panda.

"Two tigers, three tigers, come out quickly."

It doesn't matter if it comes out, the four tigers of the Li family have panda eyes.

Even Xiao Chong is the same.

"You guys are..." Sun Cuihua was startled when she saw it, and hurriedly found Li Dashan.

Sun Cuihua and Li Dashan are very good.

Li Sanhu was the least courageous, he rubbed his eyes and was about to cry, "Last night was so scary, did you hear that, I heard a woman crying, she kept crying, Sihu and I huddled under the quilt and didn't dare to move, in the middle of the night None fell asleep."

"You heard that too?" Li Xibao was surprised.

"You heard that too?"

"Where's Brother Chong?" Everyone looked at Xiao Chong.

Xiao Chong nodded and sighed: "I heard it too, intermittently, like crying."

"Why didn't we hear it?" Sun Cuihua turned her head and asked Li Dashan, "Did you hear it?"

"Me neither." Li Dashan scratched the back of his head, "I slept soundly this night."

"That's weird." Xiao Chong frowned, "How could this be?"

"I don't know if it's some kind of bird singing at night?" Li Xibao asked.

Xiao Chong shook his head, "Not like."

Ask the master and the waiter again, but they also didn't hear it.

It's getting late, and I have to eat anyway, after all, Xiao Chong still has to go to school.

It can't delay Xiao Chong's study because of this incident.

Li Xibao quickly said: "Forget it, maybe there is something wrong with someone else's house, let's have dinner first, and see if there are any other voices tonight."

The family ate together.

There was still no customer in the store.

Xiao Chong went to study.

Sitting at the counter, Li Xibao yawned and completed the task Master Tang had left for her.

Li Sanhu timidly followed Li Xibao.

"Third brother, can you stop dangling in front of me?"

"What am I doing here, I have nothing to do."

"If you have nothing to do, you can go back to the house and write. After a few days, Dad will not be busy, so he will find a school for us to study."

"I don't want to go back to the house." Hearing this, Li Sanhu became frightened again, "There is a female ghost in the house."

"Nonsense, who told you?"

"I heard it. Mother was inquiring outside. They said that there is a female ghost crying here at night."

Ha ha, also a female ghost.

She, Li Xibao, is still the little princess of the koi world, afraid of her being a female ghost?

Moreover.

She didn't think there was a female ghost here.

She smashed a chestnut on Li Sanhu's head.

"Xi Bao, why did you hit me?"

"You idiot, I can't hit you yet. Who told you to be a coward."

"I'm not a coward!"

"I said you are what you are!"

"Xi Bao!"

"Come on, hit me."

Li Xibao and Li Sanhu started fighting.You chased me for a while and I chased you for a while, and I had a great time.

Once you play, you forget about your troubles.

After noon, Chen Xisheng and Mrs. Chen arrived. The two families officially bought and sold the store, and the Li family got the deed.

By evening.

Xiao Chong returned home after school.

The family went back to bed after dinner.

The moonlight outside was dim, and the night was not cold, Li Xibao lay on the bed thinking that he must have a good sleep today to restore his complexion.

I don't know how long I slept, but I heard a whining sound again.

"Here again!" Li Xibao couldn't bear it anymore, and threw off the quilt.

The whining sound seemed to be coming from behind, but Li Xibao was never afraid of this.I lit the lamp and went out to knock on Xiao Chong's house next door.

"Brother Chong, it's me."

"Xi Bao?" Xiao Chong was putting on his clothes and seemed to have just gotten up.

"Are you going to see it too?" Li Xibao asked.

"Well, this sound is too weird. But since there is a sound, there must be a place for the sound!"

"I will go with you."

"Ok!"

Two people went outside.

The night was dark and dark.

"Xi Bao, hold my hand tightly."

"Ah."

"Xi Bao, are you afraid?"

"I'm not afraid."

Li Xibao followed Xiao Chong around the yard, but he couldn't hear the weird voice again.

"Xi Bao, don't move."

Xiao Cong suddenly lay on the ground and listened carefully.

"Brother Chong, did you hear anything?"

"Shh..."

Xiao Chong changed his position and listened again.

In this way, after Xiao Chong listened to eight directions in a row, he suddenly looked towards the westernmost side of the yard.

The backyard is in the shape of a courtyard house, the main building is the storefront of a restaurant, the back door is opened, and the east and west side rooms are opened.

Because the Li family only had such a house in the county, the elders lived in an orderly manner, with the elders living in the east wing and the younger living in the west wing.

The west ear room is where Li Xibao and the others live.

At this time, Xiao Chong was looking at these rooms with a vigilant expression on his face.

"I have to go up and have a look." Xiao Chong said to Li Xibao.

"I'll come with you."

Xiao Chong jumped up to the roof a few times, and stretched out his hand to pull Li Xibao up too.

It is very shady and cool here, and there is a smell of ripe plum fruit.

The plum trees of the Kong family here are tall and dense, and many branches are on the roof of the Li family.

"I want to go down and have a look."

Xiao Chong climbed up the tree along the branches, and Li Xibao followed closely behind him.

Li Xibao is now used to playing with a group of brothers, and he no longer talks about climbing up and down.

In this way they reached the courtyard of the Kong family.

The yard was quiet, and there was nothing at first stop.

But once you listen carefully, you will hear the whining sound.

……

Early the next morning.

The sunshine of early summer covers the whole land.

It also enveloped the entire Confucian courtyard.

Madam Kong got up as usual and picked up the dust and fallen leaves with a broom.

After sweeping the door, she opened it.

I saw a large number of people already standing at the gate.

They were Li Dashan's family, Chen Xisheng and his wife, and even the government servants also arrived.

"What's the matter with you?" Mrs. Kong smiled, "Mrs. Li, did something happen today?"

"Don't you know what happened?" Sun Cuihua looked at Mrs. Kong's kind face again, and just wanted to sneer.
