"Here, it's time to eat! Come and eat quickly, and then work again." It's lunch time again, Chunfeng and the eldest sister push the meals to the construction site.
"What are you eating today? Sister Chunfeng." The person who spoke was Master Feng's apprentice named Gao Quan. He was not tall and was a bit tanned due to working outdoors for a long time. He smiled with big white teeth and was very friendly.
"Today we eat white flour steamed buns, stir-fried Chinese cabbage with pork belly, stewed chicken with mushrooms, and shepherd's purse egg soup." Chunfeng returned with a smile.
"Oh, such a good meal, it's better than the food of a big family in the city." Gao Quan said happily when he heard about such a good meal.
"Thanks to everyone's hard work during this time, I will give you extra food today, and everyone has come to line up to eat." Chunfeng shouted again to those who were still working.
"Okay, there's extra food today. That's great. Working at Chunfeng's house is better than what we eat during the Chinese New Year. This is all thanks to Chunfeng." When they heard about the extra food, the others were also happy. They gathered around.
Chunfeng listened to everyone's compliments and remained silent. He only shared the dishes and distributed steamed buns with the eldest sister in a tacit understanding.
"If you don't have enough food, you can add more. The food will satisfy you!" Chunfeng added after everyone received the food.
"Oh, well, I'm afraid I'm going to gain weight when I finish my work this time." Everyone joked.
"Eat more. Only when you are full can you have the strength to work. I hope everyone will do more work for me!" Chunfeng also said jokingly.
In fact, the food provided by Chunfeng Family is really good. Even if there are no extra meals, the usual meat and vegetables are very good, because the vegetables, oil and water at Chunfeng Family are very good.
When Master Feng and his apprentice worked in the city or in the wealthy families in the town, they didn't have such meals. They were all meals with clear soup and little water, and only occasionally a little bit of minced meat.
The food at Chunfeng's house is quite generous and full of oil and water. Many people have actually gained a lot of weight over the past few months, but that's all for another day.
After eating enough, everyone had strength to work, so everyone at the Chunfeng family's construction site was busy and the project was progressing very quickly.
By the time the walls of Chunfeng's house were all erected and the corner of the house dug, it was already April, the weather was getting warmer, and it was the rice-planting season.
Since Uncle Qin was helping to build a house for Chunfeng's family, and Chunfeng lived with them, we simply did the work for both families together.
Chunfeng Niang stayed at home to cook, and everyone went to the fields to plant rice except Chun Sheng, who went to Mr. Liu's house to study.
The two families finished working on more than ten acres of land in a few days. This is the saying that there is strength in numbers.
The nights in late spring and early summer always carry the fragrance of flowers. In the quiet darkness, thousands of lights are like stars.
However, the lights in Dahe Village were as sparse as the morning stars, and a dark shadow evacuated toward an unfinished courtyard in the village.
Walking to the courtyard wall, the figure took out some unknown objects from somewhere and kept throwing them on the wall. After a while, he probably scattered them almost, and then the man put away the things in his hands. into darkness.
Early the next morning, Chunyu got up early and went to the fields to pick vegetables to make breakfast for the workers. He had just walked to the corner of his new house.
"Ah!" A shocking scream came, and Chunfeng Niang was so frightened that she dropped the spatula in her hand and ran out.
"Ah! What, what's going on?" Chunfeng Niang was also startled and asked Chunyu with some stuttering.
"Mom, I, I don't know, I saw it as soon as I came out!" Chunyu said with a trembling voice.
"What's wrong? Did something happen this early in the morning?" Chunfeng came out when he heard the cry and asked standing behind the eldest sister and mother.
"Chunfeng, look!" Chunyu and his colleagues Chunfeng Niang stepped aside and pointed to the wall behind.
Chunfeng frowned when he saw it, what's going on
I saw a terrifying ghost face painted on the whitewashed wall. I don’t know what the bright red thing was, flowing down the wall, making the ghost face even more terrifying.
Fortunately, it was broad daylight. It would be strange if someone who was timid at night didn't get scared to death! Chunfeng thought so in his heart.
"Mom, don't be afraid, I'll go take a look." Chunfeng said as he pulled his mother and eldest sister behind him.
"Feng'er..." Chunfeng Niang stopped talking.
"It's okay!" Chunfeng knew that her mother was worried about her, so she gave her mother an affirmative look in return.
Chunfeng stepped forward and dipped his index finger into the red liquid on the wall, twisted it with his hand, put it under his nose and smelled it, then clapped his hands and returned to Chunfeng Niang.
"It's okay, it's just cinnabar mixed with pig blood and painted on the wall. It's nothing to be afraid of." Chunfeng said the result of his inspection.
"But how come something like this appears on the wall of our house for no reason?" The eldest sister Chunyu asked still a little frightened.
"Maybe someone is jealous of our family and wants to cause trouble on purpose. Just let Master Feng and the others shovel it out and repaint it later!" Chunfeng said.
Chunfeng wondered who it could be and what did he want to do? It probably wasn't just for pranks. His intuition told Chunfeng that something would definitely happen next.
Facts have proved that Chunfeng's intuition was correct. As expected, the same painting appeared on the wall of Chunfeng's house the next morning.
At the same time, rumors began to spread in the village that the house built by the Chunfeng family had offended the land master and attracted evil spirits. That's why such terrible things appeared on the walls of his house.
For a while, the village was in an uproar, and people were talking about the unlucky things about the Chunfeng family's house. Some people even said that the Chunfeng family's house would affect other people in the village.
As the rumors spread, the rumors became more and more powerful. The people in the village looked at Chunfeng and his family more and more unkindly, and even the village chief couldn't stop them.
However, there are still some people who don't believe in the theory of evil beings. For example, Uncle Yang, Aunt Zhang and others have been defending Chunfeng and the others.
At this point, Chunfeng has finally seen through the purpose of the person behind the scenes, which is to make their family the public enemy of the whole village. It is probably best to drive their family out of the village!
This was a wishful thinking! He underestimated Chunfeng too much. This trick was not enough in Chunfeng's eyes.
Chunfeng knows that the other party has not achieved her goal yet and will definitely come again. She just needs to wait here and wait!
Sure enough, on the third night, two figures came timidly outside the courtyard wall of Chunfeng's house and started their "painting" project again.
When they were halfway through, Chunfeng led everyone in the room, including Master Feng and the others, out of the yard and quickly surrounded the two people.
Seeing that they were discovered, the two people dropped their things and tried to run away, but they were caught by Master Feng's apprentices.
"Hey, who was I at that time? It turned out to be the two of you. Why do you want to come to my house as a guest in the middle of the night? But my yard hasn't been built yet!" Chunfeng stared at the two captured people suspiciously.
