Zhang Meng felt a little embarrassed by what he said, and laughed, "I am a woman, but I am more interested in these things."
After being embarrassed for a while, she soon focused her attention back on the haunted place and immediately pulled the fat man to question him again.
In the end, the fat man was defeated by the woman in front of him who was not afraid of ghosts, and he quickly told her everything about how the place was haunted.
"That's what's happening. People who come here to eat, once they sit down to eat, become like a different person after a while. They keep eating and eating, which is almost scary. Do you know? Not long ago, a patient's family member came here. They didn't know us, but soon after they sat down here, they ordered food from five or six tables and ate it. Their stomachs were so bloated that they had to be knocked unconscious by people from the hospital and carried out before they saved their lives." The fat man slapped the table in front of him as he talked about the exciting part.
"It does sound a bit scary." However, Zhang Meng had some understanding of this ghost.
The obese man looked around at the deserted surroundings and said, "Is that so? So I advise you not to eat here. Go eat outside. Be careful that you too might be haunted by a ghost."
Zhang Meng immediately smiled at him, "No, I want to eat here, and I also want to meet this ghost here."
The fat man was so scared that his jaw almost dropped. After supporting it, he quickly said, "Comrade, you didn't understand what I said, did you? I said there are ghosts here, you'd better leave quickly."
Zhang Meng tilted her head and looked at him, "That's not right, there are ghosts here, why aren't you afraid?"
The obese man gave a bitter smile. "I'm afraid, but the ghost won't touch me because I have to feed it every day. Have you seen my figure? A month ago, I was a very slim and handsome young man, but now, I've eaten too much and become like a pig. My wife is making a fuss about going back to her parents' home every day because she hates me for being as fat as a pig."
After hearing what he said, Zhang Meng patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "By the way, I've told you so much, but I still don't know your name. What's your last name?"
The obese man, with a face that looked uglier than tears, replied, "My last name is Han, and everyone calls me Han Xiaosheng."
"So it's Comrade Han. Comrade Han, let's make a deal. I'll help you get rid of that ghost here, and you can lend me your cafeteria for a while. My husband is staying in this hospital, and I need to get him some nutritious food to nourish his body. I'd like to borrow your cafeteria to cook for him. What do you think? Is it a deal?"
The fat man immediately looked at her with suspicion, "You are not kidding me, are you? How can a woman like you catch a ghost?"
Zhang Meng, who was originally smiling at him, immediately stopped smiling when she heard his doubting her words. "What do you mean? You look down on us women, don't you? Have you forgotten Chairman M once said that women hold up half the sky? I'm telling you, you're being disrespectful to Chairman M, don't you understand?"
The fat man turned pale with fear and immediately begged Zhang Meng for mercy, "My dear aunt, please be kind and keep your voice down. I apologize to you, please don't say anything. If anyone hears you say this, I will be dragged out and reprimanded."
Zhang Meng also remembered that this era still had strict rules on such things, and immediately shut up embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I was too angry at the moment and forgot."
The obese man breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Zhang Meng seriously again, confirming with her again and again, "Can you really do it? Are you not lying to me?"
Zhang Meng immediately stood up straight and took out a piece of talisman paper. "See? I drew this talisman paper myself. I'm telling you the truth, I'm a fortune teller."
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Xiaosheng, who had been skeptical of her just now, immediately stared at her with surprised eyes, "You are a witch!"
He lowered his voice and looked around.
Zhang Meng looked at him like this, suppressed her laughter, and nodded. Han Xiaosheng immediately held her hand, his eyes full of excitement, "That's great, I finally found a fortune teller. I've been looking for her for a long time and couldn't find one."
That excited look, as if he had found a long-lost relative, made Zhang Meng a little embarrassed for a while.
"Okay, can we talk about it after the problem is solved? First, tell me how to find the hungry ghost!" Yes, she guessed that the thing lying here was a hungry ghost.
"Hungry ghost!" Han Yisheng smiled bitterly when he thought about how he looked like this. "Isn't he a hungry ghost? Otherwise, why would he eat food on my body every day?"
Seeing him lamenting about Chunqiu again, Zhang Meng rolled her eyes and quickly interrupted his sadness, "Okay, don't be sad for now, let's catch that hungry ghost quickly. I came out while my man was asleep, and he will wake up soon."
Han Yisheng couldn't help but look at her face again.
Zhang Meng's hair stood on end at the sight of him. He quickly looked around himself a few times and asked anxiously, "What are you looking at? Is that the hungry ghost?"
Seeing her so scared, Han Yisheng narrowed his eyes and became suspicious again, "Why are you so scared? Are you a witch?"
Zhang Meng was so angry that she reached out and hit him on the head. "How do you want me to prove that you believe I'm a witch? And if you don't believe me, then I won't catch ghosts here anymore. I'll go borrow land somewhere else."
