Chapter 8 I Can Catch Ghosts



Grandma Zhang and her grandson, who were at home, heard the loud noise outside. They came out to take a look and were immediately startled by the car at their doorstep.

Just as Grandma Zhang was startled, she saw her granddaughter getting out of the car and immediately called out, "Meng'er, what's this?"

"Sister." As soon as Zhang Tao saw Zhang Meng getting out of the car, he immediately ran to her excitedly and hugged her legs tightly with his hands.

Zhang Meng touched her brother's head, then looked at her grandmother who looked surprised and explained with a smile, "Grandma, they are here to find me, don't be afraid."

Just as Zhang Meng finished saying this, another person got out of the car. It was the man sitting in the back seat with Zhang Meng.

He Jincheng walked over to the frightened Grandma Zhang with a smile and explained, "Hello, Aunt Zhang, I'm He Jincheng, and I'm here to look for your granddaughter."

"Hello, hello." Grandma Zhang greeted the other person with a bit of stuttering.

Zhang Meng looked around. Since He Jincheng was driving a car, many people in the village had come to her house to watch the fun.

"Uncle He, can we go inside and talk?" Zhang Meng said, looking around.

He Jincheng saw her like this and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, let's go inside and talk."

The group quickly entered the Zhang family. Although there were only three people in the Zhang family, including Grandma Zhang and her grandchildren, Zhang Meng was able to do both men's and women's work very well because she had lost her parents when she was young.

For example, if the tables, chairs, and stools in this house are broken, she will repair them herself.

So when He Jincheng came in, he saw that all the tables, chairs and stools in the main house of the Zhang family were good.

"Grandma, Uncle He is coming to our house. Let's take out the tea I bought last time and make some for him, okay?"

Zhang Meng now intends to get Grandma Zhang away.

Without giving it much thought, Grandma Zhang nodded immediately and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."

As for the remaining Zhang Tao, Zhang Meng was not worried. The little guy was still young and could not understand what they were saying at all.

He Jincheng glanced at Grandma Zhang as she left, then said, "Comrade Zhang, I've already explained my purpose in the car. I hope you can help me."

Zhang Meng pursed her lips, looking at her brother who was eating the cakes brought by He Jincheng, and thought about the person who could get on He Jincheng's car. He must be a powerful person in the county. If she could get acquainted with such a person, it would be a very beneficial backer for her and her family in the future.

"Uncle He, I can help you with the matter you just mentioned."

As soon as she said this, He Jincheng immediately showed a happy smile on his face.

"Then can we set off now? To be honest, my family is in chaos right now." Speaking of the things happening at home, He Jincheng now has a worried look on his face.

"Okay, we'll leave soon. I'll tell my grandma first. I'm afraid she'll worry about me."

"That's as it should be. That's as it should be."

When Zhang Meng came out, she did not go to the kitchen to find Grandma Zhang, but went to the utility room.

"Zhang Yu, are you there?" I don't know what's wrong with this guy lately. He often appears to be nowhere to be found, and I don't know where he has been hanging out recently.

"Yes, I just fell asleep and you woke me up." After a while, Zhang Meng heard a ghost yawn from a corner.

As soon as she stopped yawning, a figure appeared in front of her.

Looking at Zhang Yu, whose face was originally very pale and now had dark circles under his eyes, he asked, "Where have you been fooling around? How did you become like this?"

Zhang Yu waved his hand. "You don't know this. I recently met a ghost boy. He came from the next hill. He said there was a scary thing there that made him afraid to stay there any longer. I was curious so I followed him over to take a look."

"So what's the result?" Seeing that she stopped talking, Zhang Meng asked curiously.

Zhang Yu, who had an expressionless face, suddenly chuckled and closed the distance between them with a whoosh. His expression was sinister, "Guess who I saw there?"

"Who did you see?" Zhang Meng asked curiously.

Zhang Yu chuckled again, "The man who helped you last time, I didn't expect him to be a soldier. Now he's directing people to dig something. You don't know, the scary thing my ghost brother mentioned is right where that man is digging."

"So he really is a soldier."

Zhang Meng thought of the man who helped her last time. She had always wanted to thank him. If he hadn't helped her last time, she didn't know what would have happened. And the book he gave her really helped her a lot.

Ever since she started practicing that thing, she found that she could do everything very quickly and her strength increased a lot.

Zhang Yu yawned again, and finally remembered to ask her why she was looking for him, "By the way, what do you want to see me for?"

Zhang Meng slapped her head and said, "Oh, I was so busy talking to you that I almost forgot about the real thing. The high-ranking official from the county you mentioned came to see me, and I promised to go over and help him. Can you come with me?"

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Okay, you take the umbrella and I'll hide under it and go with you."

After agreeing on this matter, Zhang Meng walked out and passed by the kitchen before going in to explain it to Grandma Zhang.

"What, you want to go to the county town with that guy?"

When Grandma Zhang heard that her granddaughter was going to the county town, her face was full of worry.

Zhang Meng saw her grandmother's uneasiness and immediately walked over to her and shook her hand. "Grandma, don't be afraid. I really do know Uncle He. He won't hurt me."

Grandma Zhang still looked frightened. "Meng'er, you have to be good. Don't agree to do anything you shouldn't do. Although our family is poor, we don't need you to make any sacrifices, understand?"

Although what Grandma Zhang said was not very clear, Zhang Meng could already hear that her grandmother suspected that she had agreed to some kind of transaction between a man and a woman with He Jincheng.

"Grandma, what are you thinking? I really went there to help Uncle He." Zhang Meng looked at the grandma with a helpless look on his face.

I didn't expect that she, a grandmother who looks quite old, would have such avant-garde ideas.

Grandma Zhang looked at her granddaughter's serious face and was suddenly startled. "Is it really not what Grandma thought?"

Zhang Meng burst out laughing this time, "Really not, I went over to help."

An embarrassed look flashed across Grandma Zhang's face. "As a girl, how can you help a powerful man like him?"

Zhang Meng opened her mouth, then suddenly curled up slightly. She leaned over to Grandma Zhang's ear and whispered, "I can catch ghosts."
