Chapter Twenty
The car stopped at a service station on the highway.
Uncle Chen got out of the car to check the condition of the car, and Ma Siyu took the opportunity to pull me out, saying he wanted to have something to eat.
In the fast food restaurant, I couldn't help but ask about Uncle Chen...
Ma Siyu said that Uncle Chen used to be a small business owner, and his life was pretty good.
But the company was not doing well three years ago and went bankrupt before he came to work for Ma's family. At first, Boss Ma valued his ability and asked him to take charge of one of his subsidiaries. But Uncle Chen didn't know what happened.
He suffered losses one after another. Later he was demoted to the head of the sales department. As a result, after one quarter, the performance dropped by 10%. When he went to the administrative department, he was ostracized and jointly targeted within half a month. In the end, Boss Ma couldn't bear to fire him.
He asked him to help drive and be a driver.
I was quite surprised: "Then he is really unlucky!"
By the way, Ma Siyu suddenly thought: "My dad said that his family suffered bad luck because they lent their house to people for weddings."
It’s better to take advantage of mourning than to take advantage of happiness! I nodded: “Has he been so unlucky since he borrowed the house?”
"Not only is it unlucky, there is also a death in the family!" Ma Siyu explained in detail...
Three years ago, Uncle Chen's mother taught in her hometown and was very friendly to the people in the town. That day, the neighbor's son was having a wedding, but it was winter and there was no room for the family, so he asked Uncle Chen's mother to borrow a house for the reception.
Relatives and friends.
As a teacher, I didn't believe in evil, so I lent it to a neighbor. Unexpectedly, the day after the wedding, Uncle Chen's brother's family of three got into a car accident, and no one survived.
After Uncle Chen learned the news, he returned to his hometown from Shangjing to take care of the funeral arrangements for his brother and his family of three.
During those seven days, Uncle Chen's company was suddenly involved in a design plagiarism scandal. They were jointly sued. As a result, the company went bankrupt after paying the compensation. The debt collectors found their hometown and violently collected money, causing Chen's mother to have a heart attack.
, also died.
Therefore, many people say that they used their homes to hold weddings, and their luck was taken away by others.
Uncle Chen didn't believe this before, but he recently heard from people in his hometown that the family who originally borrowed the house for the wedding went from being a poor household in the town to being the owner of a lumber factory in just three years.
This forced him to begin to be dubious about the idea of borrowing a house to borrow luck.
I suddenly realized that no wonder he asked me how to change my luck.
correct...
Ma Siyu suddenly stretched out his hand: "Give me your jade token to use!"
I handed it to her without asking any questions. I watched her string it up with a braided red rope, and then carefully put it on me.
"Since it is an amulet, you should take it with you!"
But when she looked at the unicorn on the jade plaque, she always thought: "It's so ugly, why not erase it and find someone to carve it again."
No need! I stuffed the amulet into my collar: "After all, it was left to me by Uncle Liu, so keep it as it is!"
Okay, but Ma Siyu emphasized: "You must not lose it!"
Don’t worry, I said casually: “I will definitely not lose this jade token!”
Who told you about the jade plaque? Her expression changed: "I'm talking about the braided rope...that was given to you by my mother."
Mother? I looked at her and was extremely speechless. I could only bury my head in eating in embarrassment.
This mess will probably not be over until I get to Beijing...
After we finished eating, Uncle Chen didn't come in, so Ma Siyu packed a portion for him.
When I got back to the car, I found him lying on the driver's seat, fast asleep, shouting indistinctly: "Mom, how can I help you?"
I cautiously went over and grabbed his hand. I could clearly feel the beating of his palm, which meant that a ghost was coming. The base of my thumb was also beating, which meant that someone who died suddenly was coming.
My heart skipped a beat, this was an internal ghost attracting external ghosts. How could Uncle Chen attract evil like this?
The moment he put down his hand...he suddenly woke up and shouted: "Mom!"
Seeing the cold sweat on Uncle Chen's forehead, I couldn't help but ask her: "Did you have a nightmare?"
Yes, Uncle Chen just thought it was: "A strange dream!"
I advised him: "Tell me about it, maybe it's a dream from a sinister person!"
Uncle Chen hesitated and said: "My mother has been dead for more than three years. I dreamed that she told me that someone was going to kill her and asked me to go to my hometown to save him. No matter how you think about it, this is impossible!"
"Then where is your hometown?" I guessed: "Should we have branched off before entering the tunnel just now?"
Uncle Chen was surprised: "Master, how do you know?"
The inner ghost attracts the outer ghost, and the inner ghost is naturally a close relative of Uncle Chen's family. He lets the outer ghost take the steering wheel and lead the way, and then he entrusts the dream at this point.
Even though it was just a guess, I still asked him: "Would you like to go to your hometown and have a look?"
Uncle Chen hesitated and looked at Ma Siyu.
Go! Ma Siyu also advised him: "I heard from my grandfather before that if the car suddenly stalls when passing near the tombstone of a relative, or the steering wheel cannot be gripped tightly, it means that the relative buried there wants you to stop the car and go in to see her. You don't think so."
I haven’t been back for years, so I’ll just go back and have a look.”
