Chapter 161

Green and Bai Meiyu returned to the living room.

Everyone else was there, but Afan, who had gone to the bathroom, had not returned yet.

"That's strange, I didn't see him in the bathroom."

Green stepped over the threshold and looked around, saying.

"You went together, and you didn't see him, let alone us. If we did, we would have seen a ghost."

Aqiang laughed and replied.

"It's better not to see him."

Green also laughed, found a seat and sat down to answer.

"Are we just going to wait for him like this?"

Aruo asked.

"We don't have to wait."

Bai Meiyu said.

"Then should we go look for him now?"

Aruo asked.

"If you want to look for him, go find him. I just came back."

Bai Meiyu shook her head.

Aruo looked at the others.

"I just came back too."

Green said.

"I don't want to go, and I feel like someone is outside."

Ah Qiang said.

"I don't plan to go either. Why would I do such a dangerous thing for a stranger? If you can come back, then come back. If you can't, then that's fate. If you interfere with other people's fate without permission, you're courting death."

Ah Zhuang shook his head.

He was a middle-aged man in his 40s, broad and fat, tall and strong, and wearing very thick shoes, but when he walked, he swayed a bit like a duck, as if the shoes were not suitable.

"I don't want to go either."

Ah Mei shook her head.

Ah Mei was a middle-aged woman in her 40s, with a belly that was bigger than a man's, and her thighs were so thick that it was hard to tell whether she was pregnant or just fat. She was a little shorter than Ah Zhuang.

They were a couple and lived in the same room.

Amo shook his head.

Next to the room that Azhuang and Amei had chosen before, there lived a single man, in his 20s, almost 30, with some muscles and tall, but not fat or strong.

He didn't speak and was always silent. He looked a little thin and depressed, unless you looked at the skin exposed outside his clothes. From the ups and downs of his skin, you could tell that he was indeed strong.

But it was hard to say how much strength he had.

Aru opened his mouth and wanted to say something to persuade others to go out with him to look for someone, but before he could say anything, someone really came to the door.

Matchmaker Su came over with the servants.

"Come with me."

Matchmaker Su waved to them.

"Where are we going?"

Aqiang asked.

"Go and take care of the bride. There were originally two maids, but somehow they jumped in and died. The bodies haven't been taken out yet. Even if they were taken out, they can't be used. So I had to find you."

Matchmaker Su shook her head and answered disdainfully while

cracking melon seeds. Matchmaker Su wrapped the shells of the melon seeds in a handkerchief. If there were too many, she would stuff them in her pocket, shake the handkerchief, and continue to use it. Matchmaker

Su walked in front with her huge figure. When she crossed the threshold, she twisted her waist, like a water snake as thick as a doorpost, wrapped in a layer of red cloth, which looked quite funny, but with a weird feeling.

Aruo shuddered.

Matchmaker Sue and the servants escorted Green and his group to the door of a small red room as if they were sending consignments.

The door of the room was a long covered corridor. Sitting here, you would not be exposed to the rain, but you would be exposed to the wind. It was very breathable, but also very cold. There were many chairs.

"These chairs are for you to sit on. Sit here. Arrange them in any order and go in one by one. Bring in the food that our kitchen has just prepared for the bride.

If the bride wants to eat, you should bring it to her mouth and don't let her move. Otherwise, her makeup will be ruined, something will fall off her body, her clothes will be ruined, and her shoes will be dirty.

We have finally put together a set of things for the bride. If any of you dare to steal anything, we will never punish you. "Let you go.

If the bride doesn't want to eat, you can ask her, put the food in your hands on the table, and let the next person in. The bride may like or dislike something, which is normal.

But if you dare to knock things over, we will still deal with you."

Sue the matchmaker yawned and clapped her hands. The servants, all holding things in their hands, walked to the Greens who had already sat down, and motioned them to pick a plate and take it out.

"I've finished what I want to say. If you have any questions, just ask the servants next to you. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Sue the matchmaker waved her hand, turned around and left. She was so fast that the people behind her didn't even have time to shout.

"Why are you running so fast? If there is really nothing wrong with the bride, why would the matchmaker run? If there is really nothing wrong with the bride, the matchmaker is the bride's benefactor, the one who brought the bride together.

Even if the bride doesn't appreciate it, she won't do it."

Ah Zhuang shook his head and said.

"Seeing the matchmaker running so fast, I'm afraid there is some injustice that we don't know about."

Ah Ruo said.

"Is there? It's just like that. We can't protect ourselves, so who cares about others."

Ah Mei touched the plums on the table and threw them into her mouth, touched her fat belly, and laughed.

Ah Ruo was said to have bad words by several people, and now he was a little unhappy. He simply turned his head away, stopped looking at people, and stopped talking, and the scene became quiet.

"Who will go first?"

Ah Qiang asked.

"This one."

The servant stretched out his hand and pointed at Green.

Green nodded, stood up, and walked over with the plate in his hand.

"How do I know if the bride wants to eat or not?"

Green asked standing at the door.

"Open the plate first, then bring it to the bride. If the bride nods, feed the food on the plate to the bride. If the bride does not move or shakes her head, put the food on the table."

The servant who opened the door answered in a low voice.

After opening the door and watching him go in, the servant closed the door behind him.

The room was dark, with only a red candle and a white candle lit on the table. The candles emitted a faint light, and the flames were only the size of beans. If you were not close, you would still feel the room was cold.

You have to be careful when passing by, because it seems that if you take a little bigger steps, you will bring a gust of wind and blow out the two flames.

The bride sat motionless on the bed at the back of the room. The bed was rectangular, taking up the entire empty space from left to right, and there was a bedspread on top, dividing it into two parts. The bedspread

was red on the outside and white on the inside.

The white part looked very low quality, slightly yellowish in color, as if it had been used for a long time. The red part was new and thin, and seemed very expensive at first glance, but seemed very fragile when you looked closely.

Behind the bride was a long red cotton quilt.

Because it was partially blocked and the light was not good here, it was not clear, but Green could vaguely see some golden threads in it.

If Green was not mistaken, the quilt in front of him and the handkerchief in the hand of Su the matchmaker outside the door were exactly the same.

If the people getting married are rich, they can give a gift to everyone who comes here to work, and unify the format, then there is no problem, but it is pitch black in here, and they don't even light candles.

It doesn't look like they are rich at all.

If the people getting married are poor, then Su the matchmaker is a little special.

Green walked over with the plate.

He slightly opened the lid of the plate and tried to see the bride's face under the bride's veil.

But the veil was thick, heavy, large, opaque, and very long.

He couldn't see anything no matter how hard he looked, especially since it was so dark here. He felt that he would go blind if he stayed any longer, so he gave up this plan.

Because the bride hadn't reacted at all during this period, Green thought that she didn't plan to eat, so he closed the lid and wanted to take the plate away.

But the bride suddenly nodded slightly, and Green was sure that he was not mistaken, because the lid on the bride's head was still moving.

The bride sat there with her back straight the whole time, and there was not a single wrinkle on her clothes.

Green slowly opened the lid, and the things in the bag squirmed and flew out.

In the plate were some newly born cockroaches and some big cockroaches with wings. The small cockroaches couldn't fly yet, but the big cockroaches could already hit Green's face.

The distance between Green and the big cockroaches was only a fist, and he didn't shout out on the spot, which showed that he had a good mental quality.

The bride leaned forward slightly and began to remind him to feed her quickly.

Green knew he couldn't delay any longer.

He couldn't find any tableware for a while, whether it was chopsticks, spoons, knives, or forks. At

this moment, he suddenly wished that he could get something in the living room before.

There seemed to be something in the living room that could be used to eat.

But it was too late to think about this now.

He crushed the food in the plate with the lid in his hand, scooped up the food with the lid, and slowly handed it to the bride.

The bride was not picky, and slowly opened her mouth to eat everything on the lid.

Green's hand was under the lid, but he could feel a wet and fishy smell coming from under the bride's lid.

He could even feel the forked tongue like a snake slowly moving across the back of his hand.

Then there was a burning pain on the back of his hand, as if the part that was touched had lost its surface flesh.

He endured the pain, dragged the plate, held up the lid, and fed a small half of the food in his hand into the bride's mouth. The bride stood up, shook her head slightly, and then did not move.

It looked like she had eaten enough.

Green put the plate on the table, loosened the lid on the plate, turned around and left.

The door opened with a push.

When he stepped over the threshold and walked out, the back of the hand that had just held the lid began to peel off, and large chunks of skin fell off, revealing the red blood inside.

Although he raised his hand, he couldn't stop the bleeding, and the blood still fell to the ground, dripping all the way.

Therefore, the people sitting outside saw his hand and smelled the blood. They were even more shocked that he could walk out alive after bleeding. They all suspected that he was actually a ghost.

"How did you get out?"

Amei asked.

"I came out after I finished my work."

Green said.
