Network New Liao Zhai

Chapter 85

Xiao Ou followed Xu Feng step by step, only to hear the rustling of his feet stepping on the dead leaves, and the sound of unknown birds in the woods.

Xu Feng said it was an owl.

I got goosebumps listening to it.

Suddenly, something shot out of the woods, fluffy dashed past Xiao Ou's feet, she screamed in fright, and ran over to grab Xu Feng's arm.

Xu Feng scanned it with his flashlight, "Don't be afraid of a wild cat."

Sure enough, a few cat calls were heard in the distance.

Xiao Ou was trembling, "Brother Xu, you said that in such a remote, far away place, how come there are still people living here?"

"Who knows? Maybe people just want the air here to be good and quiet."

In fact, he was also curious about what kind of person lived on the 28th.

Xu Feng: "The government said before that it would renovate this place, but it has not been implemented. It involves so many villas, and no one wants to take over."

"Isn't there no one? Just take it apart..."

"Just because no one lives in it doesn't mean that there is no real estate. As soon as it is said that it needs to be renovated, those homeowners will appear at once, waiting for the lion to speak!"

"What?"

"The demolition has to be compensated!"

"Brother Xu, do you still know these things?"

"Understand a little bit. Sigh, look, it should be the front."

With Xu Feng's flashlight, Xiao Ou vaguely saw the front door of the villa.

The high fence, with the power grid on it, can't see the inside at all. Is this to prevent thieves?

The thick old-fashioned iron door was tightly closed. There was a small door and a small window on the iron door.

Xiaoou feels that this is a villa and how it is like a prison.

Xu Feng asked, "Is it here?"

Xiao Ou is not sure: "It should be?"

Xu Feng looked at the doorbell next to him, and reached out to ring it.

After a while, there were footsteps, the street lights above the gate turned on, the window on the small gate opened, and a man looked at the two of them, "Who are you looking for?"

Xiaoou: "I'm Tan Afang's daughter. She works as a nanny here. I brought her medicine."

"Where's the medicine? Get it!"

Xiaoou: "You see, it's not easy for me to come all the way. Let me see my mother and say a few words, okay?"

The person in the door glanced at Xiao Ou and Xu Feng, and closed the window after saying a word.

"Hey! Why is he like this!" Xiao Ou looked at Xu Feng.

"Don't worry, he may have gone to call your mother."

Soon footsteps were heard.

Obviously not alone this time.

The window on the small door opened again.A woman's face was exposed.

"Mother."

"Xiaoou, why are you here so late?"

"Mom, I've brought you medicine." Xiao Ou lifted the plastic bag in his hand.

Xiaoou's mother turned her head and didn't know what to say to the people inside. The door opened, and Xiaoou's mother came out and hugged Xiaoou.

"Silly child, it's so late? It's such a long way, aren't you afraid? Mom is not in a hurry to use 1. You can come during the day."

"Mom, I'm not alone. With Big Brother Xu accompanying me, I'm not afraid."

Only then did Tan Afang see Xu Feng next to him. "Brother Xu? Who is he?"

Xiaoou looks at Xu Feng, yes!Still don't know who he is?What do you say, boss friend?

Xu Feng: "Xiaoou's mother, I'm Xiaoou's colleague. We both work in a cafe. The boss asked me to send Xiaoou here. She said that it was too far away for Xiaoou to be unsafe."

Xu Feng felt that saying this would reassure Xiaoou's mother.

"Yeah! Is that so? Your boss is really nice."

"Yes, Mom, the boss asked Big Brother Xu to send me here. Our boss is really a good person."

"That's good. You can rest assured to have such a good boss and mother."

Xiao Ou asked quietly: "Mom, how are you doing here? How is the master treating you? Didn't you embarrass you?"

If the host family embarrassed her mother, she would want her mother to stop working here and go back to Jiangcheng, where she could earn less money and not be angry.

"I'm fine here, I just take care of my wife, cook, and do laundry. It's very relaxing."

"Ma'am, is that the old lady?"

She heard that the old lady of the rich family was very bad-tempered.

"No, it's a very young lady, more than 20 years old."

"Sister Tan, don't delay too long." The male voice in the door spoke.

"Okay, I'll go in right now."

He said to Xiaoou again, "Go back! Mom will visit you when she is free."

He said to Xu Feng again, "Thank you, Xiao Xu, for causing you trouble."

Then he took the plastic bag in Xiao Ou's hand and turned around and went in.

The door closed, followed by the window.

Finally, the street lights were turned off.

The surroundings were plunged into darkness again.

Xu Feng held up the flashlight, "Let's go."

Xiaoou: "Brother Xu, do you feel weird that a young lady would like to live in a kind of place?"

Xu Feng: "This kind of place? What kind of place? Very good! A big villa."

Xiaoou: "Go, it's eerie and terrifying, like a prison. Who wants to live here? Why does it feel like I'm visiting a prison when I come to deliver medicine to my mother."

"Visitors? Hehe! Kind of like that."

The two talked all the way, and the villa was quickly left behind.

-

Tan Afang held the plastic bag, full of joy, and was very happy that her daughter brought her medicine.

Uncle Li, the gatekeeper, always had a straight face. Except for telling her: You can't do this, you can't do that, and he likes to ignore other questions. Today, he came to ask her to meet her daughter, and said, "Your daughter is filial."

Some people are happier to praise their daughter than to praise herself.

Tan Afang walked through the garden in the middle and walked towards the main building through the fountain. She and her wife lived in the main building, the wife lived upstairs, and she lived in the nanny room downstairs.

She wants to hurry back and put the plaster on, sleep, and it will be much better tomorrow.

The pain has been terrible these two days. She is afraid that it will affect her work. When the host is not satisfied, she will resign. Where can she find such a good job.

This villa is quite big, but there are only three people.The janitor, Uncle Li, himself, and his wife.

The work is also easy. It is said that it is to take care of the wife's daily life, that is, cooking, washing clothes, and cleaning. These tasks are too easy.And every few days, someone brings vegetables and fruit daily necessities up, and she doesn't need to buy them at all.

It's still a long way from the nearest town, and it's not realistic for her to go out to buy.

She cherishes this job very much, and has ignored the conditions that the host family put forward, such as not being able to go out casually.She has nowhere to go if she is a foreigner.

If it weren't for her old troubles, she wouldn't call her daughter. Speaking of making calls, it's really strange. In such a big villa, those phones are all decorations, and none of them can get through.Only the janitor Uncle Li's hut has a telephone, which is the only tool for the villa to communicate with the outside world.Tan Afang begged Uncle Li before she got permission to call her daughter to deliver medicine.

Tan Afang walked into the hall of the main building with brisk steps. There was a faint light in the living room. It was a wall lamp that she turned on when Uncle Li came to call her. She didn't want to disturb the lady upstairs.

The husband who hired her once instructed: Madam is in poor health and needs to rest.

She has been here for almost a month. The wife rarely goes downstairs, and even eats upstairs. Every time she sends the prepared meals to the living room upstairs, she will clean up after the wife finishes eating.Madam rarely spoke, and she never took the initiative to ask her to go upstairs.

She has only met his wife a few times, she is very young, more than 20 years old, and she is a good match for her husband.

The husband is about more than 30 years old. He doesn't live here. He comes here every few days. When he comes, he goes upstairs. I don't know what to say to his wife. Every time the husband comes, he asks her to stay with the concierge.When the husband came, he was fine, with no expression on his face. When he left, he was very angry and told them loudly: "Take care of Madam, and don't let her go out."

Tan Afang thinks: In fact, the husband is too worried, and the wife does not go downstairs, let alone go out.

What a strange place, what some strange people.

Tan Afang quietly entered the living room, ready to turn off the wall lamp, and then went back to her room. Just when her hand touched the switch button, a voice sounded above her head: "You are back."

The sudden sound startled her.

　A new month has begun.

　　Yu Xin will continue to work hard to code words and dedicate the story to everyone.Although it is not very beautiful, it is not bad to be used as a pastime after a meal!Just like eating a big meal, occasionally eating a snack is also the joy of life.

　　I hope you will continue to support us as always!Thanks!
