The Zhu family kept their distance, but they certainly wouldn't miss out on the excitement.
Old Mrs. Zhu was sitting on the ground, wailing and crying. Beside her lay a person with a basin covering their face; under the basin were cockroaches. Two large, muscular men stood nearby.
Based on what Grandma Zhu said, they quickly pieced together the truth.
It must have been that when Grandma Zhu opened the door, she accidentally bumped into someone and spilled all those cockroaches on them. As for the basin, it was probably also Grandma Zhu who covered it.
See? They've caused trouble. When the Zhu family wanted to repair the gate, they said they wanted it to open inwards, but they insisted on making it open outwards.
Every time they passed by the Zhu family's house, they had to be extra careful, afraid that they might accidentally get a facial massage.
After all these years, someone has finally fallen victim to it, so they have to take a good look at it.
As Jiang Zuoque lay there, he felt a sudden darkness engulf him, and his mouth was filled with something. Before he could even taste it, the overwhelming stench nearly made him faint.
After leaving his old home, he hadn't smelled anything that awful for over a decade or two. To put it simply, it was dozens of times more stench than his daily excrement.
Not only did it stink, but there was also something in his mouth. Just thinking about it made Jiang Zuoque wish he would never wake up.
Just when I was finally about to spit everything out of my mouth, a basin suddenly appeared.
With one swipe of the lid, everything that had come out went back into my mouth.
Jiang Zuoque had the courage the first time, but not the second time. His tongue, mouth, face, and upper body were all overwhelmed by the stench.
He lay there like that, without saying a word, when the person who bumped into him started crying and screaming.
Jiang Zuoque was so angry that his whole body trembled. Finally, with great effort, he raised his left hand.
"Ahhh"
Old Mrs. Zhu, who was focused on crying, was startled and screamed when Jiang Zuoque did this.
"It's come back to life."
The sound was louder than the previous cries, carried over a wider area, and reached more people, drawing even more people out.
Li Yiyi looked around and was surprised to see that the people who had been scattered a moment ago were now standing side by side.
They didn't even bother with the most basic disguises; their eyes were practically shining as they stared.
They've never seen a corpse come back to life. Who is it?
To be honest, Jiang Zuoque really did look like a zombie. Jiang Yi and Jiang Er, who were standing next to him, were so frightened that they immediately hugged each other.
"Mother, Mother, who has come back to life? Is it Xiaoqiang?"
Zhu Kou arrived late, but those who arrive late are always half the main character.
Sure enough, as soon as the words were spoken, Li Yiyi was the first to lose her temper. She was still a child, so it was normal for her to lose control.
[Laughing, hiccuping, I'm almost dying of laughter.]
[Mom and Dad, this is the first time I've ever heard of Xiaoqiang coming back to life.]
Look at the sap on the ground; the cockroach is definitely dead.
Even after all this, Zhu Kou still falsely accused him of being a zombie. I feel so sorry for Xiao Qiang.
After calming down, Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting came out to see what had happened. Upon hearing their daughter's thoughts, they too became curious.
Xiaoqiang came back to life.
They hadn't actually seen it either, but peeking through the crack in the door, they could see everything.
Their house is right next to the Zhu family's, so they definitely enjoy a super VIP seat for watching the drama unfold, with an excellent view and clear perspective.
"Pfft~"
Jiang Yuting smiled at just one glance.
Okay, she admits she enjoyed watching it. Jiang Zuoque deserved it.
Seeing the person struggling to get out of the basin, Jiang Yuting retreated behind the door, having witnessed the most exciting scene; the rest was explained by her daughter.
Li Laoda also stepped back. If his wife couldn't watch, he wouldn't watch either. It was more important to spend time with his wife. Besides, there was his daughter. If his daughter watched, it would be the same as if they had watched.
Li Yiyi: So I'm just another one of you gossiping enthusiasts.
"Pooh."
The last cockroach's corpse was vomited out, and the first thing Jiang Zuoque did was turn his head and vomit.
That was about it. Looking at myself again, I started vomiting again, three or four times in a row, even bringing up my dinner from the night before.
Finally, unable to vomit anything more, Jiang Zuoque was about to accept reality.
He, Jiang Zuoque, had just been buried under Xiaoqiang's head.
"Son, it's not a zombie!"
After watching for a while, Old Lady Zhu's soul finally returned. Thank goodness she didn't rise from the dead! Thank goodness she didn't rise from the dead!
"Mom, I knew it! How could Xiaoqiang come back to life?"
Zhu Kou's witty remark almost made Li Yiyi laugh again. What to do? She just loved Zhu Kou's honesty.
What's wrong with being stingy?
Even if you weren't stingy, you wouldn't be able to collect that many cockroaches, so how could you let Jiang Zuoque taste such a delicacy!
With Zhu Kou's words, Old Lady Zhu finally felt at ease. Her eyes darted around, and she returned to the ground, one hand still in Zhu Kou's grasp.
"My son, don't pull me back, just let your mother go!"
No, your son didn't poop; you were the one pulling on him.
[Zhu Kou, please step up and give me a hand!]
Your mother has tried so hard, how can you hold her back?
Her face remained calm, but her eyes betrayed her disappointment and frustration.
Sure enough, Lao Tie is Lao Tie. When Grandma Zhu said Zhu Kou was gold, she was exaggerating his talent.
Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting exchanged a glance, and they both said that their daughter would never disappoint them when it came to gossiping.
I didn't see it with my own eyes, but it felt even better than if I had.
"Mother, please don't go! What will happen to your son if you go?"
Although Zhu Kou didn't understand why, seeing Old Lady Zhu say she was leaving, he felt a pang of sadness and burst into tears without even pretending.
Genuine crying is more moving than fake crying; at least Grandma Zhu's performance was more realistic.
