Chapter 50: The Golden Monkey is Playing Ghost
Chapter 50: The Golden Monkey is Playing Ghost
Lin Xiaodou didn't sleep well all night.
Last night she slept in the room for female educated youth in the educated youth compound.
About ten female educated youth slept on a large bunk bed, each covered with her own thin quilt.
It wasn't even 8pm yet and everyone was fast asleep.
Lin Xiaodou couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
She wasn't used to so many people sleeping in one bed.
When no one is around, she goes into her space and sleeps on a 3-meter-long soft bed.
She doesn't have the habit of going to bed early, and usually goes to bed at least until 11 o'clock at night.
For people of this generation, this time is considered a night owl.
Usually in the evening, she would read novels or watch movies in her space.
Last night, she was worried that someone would notice something unusual, so she didn’t enter the space physically. She only watched a movie in the space with her consciousness.
After watching it, I couldn't sleep even more.
The female educated youth sleeping next to her was snoring, probably because she was too tired from working during the day.
The snoring sound is like the whim of a train.
Sometimes the sound was loud, sometimes soft, and it made her ears numb.
Lin Xiaodou was too embarrassed to wake them up and could only endure it silently.
I finally made it until midnight and the snoring finally stopped.
Lin Xiaodou just breathed a sigh of relief.
Not far away, the sound of teeth crunching could be heard again.
OK! Here comes another one who is grinding his teeth.
In this way, with eyes half closed in a daze, I finally reached dawn.
At dawn, everyone woke up slowly and started a new day.
After washing up, Lin Xiaodou went to the team leader's house.
The captain and his wife were having breakfast.
As soon as she saw her, before the captain could say anything, his wife stood up with a smile:
"Oh, this must be Lin Zhiqing, I went to my mother's house yesterday and didn't see you.
When I saw it today, it really brightened my eyes!
You are so pretty, there is no other girl like you in this whole area."
When she came back from her mother's house last night, the captain's wife was so happy to see the egg cake on the table.
She likes sweets, but she hasn't eaten them for a long time.
Ever since the eldest son got married and joined the army, and the financial power was controlled by his daughter-in-law, he has never sent a penny home.
The family also has to support their young daughter to go to high school, so where is the spare money to buy food?
She had seen the fragrant egg cake at the supply and marketing cooperative before.
She was drooling but didn't dare to buy it because it was too expensive.
When I feel like craving something, I go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy half a pound of brown sugar to drink, and that happens once every few months.
Brown sugar costs 50 cents per pound, and half a pound costs 25 cents, and you need a sugar ticket, so you can't save it.
Not to mention egg cakes, one piece is required for one pound, and a bag is exactly one pound.
This Lin Zhiqing is really generous.
Looking at the pretty girl in front of her, the captain's wife liked her more and more.
If her own son hadn't been married, she would have wanted her to be her daughter-in-law.
"Lin Zhiqing, have you eaten yet? Come have something to eat at my house!"
The captain's wife had a round face and her eyes narrowed into slits when she smiled.
Looking at the potatoes and cold-mixed watercress on the table, Lin Xiaodou shook his head quickly:
"Thank you, Auntie. No, I've already eaten."
Even if you didn't eat it, you have to say you ate it.
It’s not easy for everyone these days, and we can’t just take advantage of others’ food.
But she couldn't eat these.
Especially the watercress, which is bitter and fishy, she really doesn't like to eat it.
The captain quickly finished the potato in his hand, gulped down a large bowl of cold water, stood up and said:
"Let's go. I'll take you to the wooden house in the back mountain. You can go and take a look at the situation first."
......
Half an hour later, at the back mountain.
Looking at the two-story wooden house in front of him, Lin Xiaodou was a little surprised.
She thought the wooden house, which had been empty for several years, would look a little shabby, but unexpectedly it looked quite good from the outside.
The entire wooden house is designed as a stilt house, suspended in mid-air and supported by four thick wooden sticks.
Its appearance has a natural wood tone, exuding a simple temperament.
There are layers of wooden steps on the ground leading to the door of the wooden house.
Lin Xiaodou raised his foot and prepared to go up.
The captain quickly stopped him and said, "Lin Zhiqing, are you sure you want to live here? Or should we move to another place?"
He was still a little worried.
After all, even a grown man like him is afraid of such a gloomy place.
Lin Zhiqing was a young female comrade, so she would probably be even more afraid.
I shouldn't have mentioned this place yesterday.
"It's okay." Lin Xiaodou continued, "I'll go in and take a look around first. You wait outside."
The captain: "Then go quickly and come back quickly. If you need anything, just let me know."
Lin Xiaodou: “Okay!”
Less than 10 minutes.
Lin Xiaodou walked out with a calm expression.
She smiled and said, "Captain, it seems like there's nothing special in there except that it's a little dark."
The captain looked puzzled, "Really?"
Lin Xiaodou: "No problem, you let us new educated youth take a day off yesterday, so I will clean here today.
Don't worry, I'm in good shape. Go back and I'll be back to work soon."
Hearing her vow so confidently, the captain had no choice but to believe it.
Every day before the villagers go to work, he has to arrange work on site and he really has to rush back.
The captain said: "Okay, you clean up first, I'll come back at noon to see if you need any help."
Lin Xiaodou refused directly: "Don't bother you, I can do it alone."
Seeing that she insisted, the captain had nothing to say.
After repeated instructions, he turned and left quickly.
As soon as the others left, Lin Xiaodou's face changed and he quickly ran up the stairs.
After entering the door, he locked it with a clang.
As soon as he turned around, he met a pair of round, glowing eyes on the ceiling of the house.
“Woo woo woo~ wah wah wah~”
The figure made strange noises again and moved back and forth on the roof beam.
Trying to scare Lin Xiaodou away in this way.
But the little guy didn't know that.
The girl in front of it can understand animal language.
"It turns out that the one playing tricks here is a little golden monkey."
Lin Xiaodou couldn't help but curl her lips and smile.
The golden monkey is a precious and rare wild animal in China.
Compared with other monkeys, golden monkeys look cute and adorable, and are very lovable.
It is said that the prototype of Sun Wukong in Journey to the West was the golden monkey.
Lin Xiaodou has loved stuffed animals since she was a child.
After obtaining a cute little jumping spider - Tiaotiao in Beijing, she has been thinking about finding a few companions for it.
Looking at the clever little golden monkey above his head, Lin Xiaodou decided to save it!
She summoned a bunch of bananas from space and tempted:
"Little guy, do you want to eat a banana?"
The little golden monkey on the beam paused, tilted its head and thought about it.
Then it jumped down and ran over to me in a hopping manner.
Lin Xiaodou handed over the banana with a smile.
But the little monkey refused to take the banana.
Instead, he grinned and spat into her hand.
Lin Xiaodou: .....
Hey! This little guy! You deserve a beating!
Lin Xiaodou rolled up his sleeves and started catching monkeys.
If she doesn't beat this monkey up twice, she will no longer be named Lin!
o(￣ヘ￣o＃)!
