In terms of courage and experience, my great-great-grandfather was much more courageous than that silly and bold person. However, being bold did not mean that you could do things recklessly without any sense of fear. My great-great-grandfather didn't want to see that happen to him. Although he was a ghost hunter and had some kind of evil-warding item on him, when the evil aura reached a certain level, no matter who you were or what kind of evil-warding item you had, it wouldn't work. In such a situation, it was best to come when the sun was clear and the yang qi was sufficient.
Let me repeat once again that we ghost hunters are humans too. We often walk by the river. If we are not careful, we might get our shoes wet one day. In fact, the saying " stay away from ghosts and gods " was very reasonable. If it weren't for the people who provoked the dirty things asking us for help and we couldn't bear to see them suffer, ghosts would be willing to take risks alone and deal with these things all day long. It could be said that when I encounter places that feel strange, I usually take a detour. Who would want to provoke this thing for no reason? Here, I would like to advise those who want to find something to do all day and want to see what these things look like. Stay away from these things. If you really encounter them or see them, it will be too late for you to cry.
My great-great-grandfather carried the lantern and returned to the chair outside the hall. At this time, the incense used to measure time had already burned half, which was half a day. In another half an hour, which was another hour, it would be the fourth watch.
At this moment, the entire Cai Residence was completely silent. There was no sound at all. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. My great-great-grandfather placed the lantern and the wooden clapper beside the chair and sat back down to watch the incense burn.
Until dawn, there were no more cries, beatings, or strange things coming from the Cai residence. According to my estimations, my great-great-grandfather's shout scared Zhang Jiang's ghost quite badly. In fact, some of these things were even more timid than humans. Sometimes, when they encountered them, you could scare them away with a few roars or curses. At least, they would not dare to come back and cause trouble for a short period of time. However, it was still the same sentence. If it was possible to not provoke these things, it was best not to provoke them.
Early in the morning, after breakfast, my great-great-grandfather was too sleepy to take it. On the way from Sanwang Village to Kaifeng, he had not stopped for a moment. He was tired from the journey and had not had time to rest. Now, he had to keep his eyes open for an entire night. Even a man made of iron could not take it.
The breakfast was quite sumptuous, but my great-great-grandfather didn't eat much and didn't say much. He just greeted his father-in-law and mother-in-law, which was almost like paying his respects. He also said hello to my great-grandmother and touched my great-great-grandfather's little face. Then, with a troubled look, he returned to Xiang Lou to sleep.
At this time, a new day had begun in the Cai residence. Many people took advantage of the free time to whisper to each other and quietly discuss what had happened last night. It was only later that my great-great-grandfather found out that almost two-thirds of the people in the Cai Residence had heard his voice that night. However, this was not surprising. Thinking about it, there were indeed not many people who could sleep soundly in such an environment.
My great-great-grandfather slept until noon. When it was time for dinner, my great-great-grandmother came over to wake him up. My great-great-grandmother said that she would drink less during dinner later and tell him if there was anything after dinner.
The lunch was quite sumptuous. Although this was a critical period for the Cai Residence, they still treated their son-in-law with respect. This lunch is a welcome dinner for my great-great-grandfather. The Cai family is quite complete. Cai Wenye's two sons, who are my great-great-grandmother's two brothers, my great-great-grandmother's sister-in-law, uncle, aunt, nephew, niece, and so on. The whole family, old and young, are all present. In addition to the relatives of the Cai family, there was also a table in the yamen.
The more people there were, the more people clinked glasses with my great-great-grandfather. After the meal, my great-great-grandfather thought about what my great-great-grandmother had told him to drink less. In the end, he still drank too much and drank two jars of old wine. " Of course, everyone knows that the alcohol content was low in the past. Drinking two jars of old wine is basically equivalent to drinking two bundles of beer now. However, this isn't considered a small amount. Even if my great-great-grandfather's alcohol tolerance isn't shallow, he still drinks until he's dizzy.
When the banquet was over, my great-great-grandfather wobbled back to the Fragrance Building to sleep. My great-grandmother handed my great-grandfather to Xiao Xiang to take care of, and she followed my great-great-grandfather to the Fragrance Building. My great-great-grandfather was lying on the bed. She sat by the bed and told my great-great-grandfather about the servant girl, Xiao Lan.
It was said that drinking would cause trouble, and this was true. My great-great-grandfather had originally planned to go to the garden well to take a look after lunch, but now it seemed that he couldn't. Drinking would delay matters. Even the greatest saint would be a fool if he drank too much. It was already very good that my great-great-grandfather knew to go back to his room to sleep after drinking too much.
At this moment, my great-great-grandfather was half-lying and half-sitting on the bed with drunk eyes. My great-great-grandmother moved a round stool and sat by the bed. A servant girl brought a bowl of hangover soup. My great-great-grandmother used a spoon to feed my great-great-grandfather.
I don't know what herb was used to make this hangover soup. After my great-great-grandfather drank it, he sobered up quite a bit. Then, he apologized to my great-great-grandmother with a face full of shame, saying that he didn't listen to my great-great-grandmother and shouldn't have drunk so much wine during dinner.
My great-great-grandmother was also quite understanding. Besides, women in ancient times paid attention to the three obedience and four virtues. Men like my great-great-grandfather who apologized to his wife after drinking too much were very rare back then.
My great-great-grandmother smiled and told my great-great-father that it was okay. She just had to drink less in the future. Drinking too much was not good for her health.
After that, my great-great-grandmother told my great-great-grandfather about Xiaolan. After my great-great-grandmother brought my great-grandfather back to her mother's house, she heard the servant girl Xiao Xiang tell her about these things intermittently.
When Xiaolan was seventeen, which was the year my great-great-grandfather and great-grandmother got married, Cai Wenye personally promised to set Xiaolan free. Moreover, as long as Xiaolan wanted to get married, the Cai family would prepare a generous dowry for her.
Ever since that day, Xiao Lan had been secretly looking for someone she liked. Xiao Lan's parents were both dead, and her uncle and aunt had sold her to the Cai residence. Her uncle and aunt had cut off all ties with her, and it could be said that she had no relatives at this time. It was unrealistic for her to ask her relatives outside the residence to find a husband for her. Moreover, she often did not leave the residence, and there were no acquaintances outside the residence. She could only find her own lover in the Cai residence.
