When Zhang Ehu and his group of eight returned to the Meng Mansion, it was already daylight, Mrs. Zhang had already woken up and was eating breakfast, when she saw them coming back, she scolded them: "I didn't come back until dawn, you children are too playful!"

Zhang Xiuyuan was very happy to see his mother, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Mother, it's great that you're back home!"

Mrs. Zhang said strangely: "I've been at home and haven't gone out."

Bai Yingyang pulled Zhang Xiuyuan secretly, and said with a smile: "Mother, I played too late last night. Axiu was tired and slept in the carriage. I didn't expect to have a nightmare. I dreamed that we were too playful. You got very angry and scolded me." He gave us a meal and said that if we are disobedient, we will never be allowed to enter the house again.”

Mrs. Zhang took her daughter's hand and comforted her with a smile: "Silly boy, you are all my mother's darlings. My mother said that you are just concerned, so why don't you let me in?" Ladies and gentlemen, wash up.

Zhang Xiuyuan woke up in front of the Meng Mansion after leaving Huimeng Martial Arts Hall, and without knowing the reason, she asked Bai Yingyang what was going on in a low voice.

Bai Yingyang told her one by one what he saw and heard in Huimeng martial arts gym after he got lost with her last night, and what he talked with everyone in the martial arts gym, and finally said: "We were at the banquet last night, those servants were all ghosts, The Hu clan is a fox demon, and the empress we saw there is actually a transformation of the Hu clan."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiuyuan was startled and asked, "Is that Mrs. Bai also a ghost?"

Although Bai Yingyang was sure that Mrs. Bai was a ghost, she still refused to admit it. She shook her head and said, "I don't know either..."

Zhang Xiuyuan clasped his hands together and said: "Madam Bai is such a kind and kind person... I hope she is safe and well."

After washing, everyone sat down to have breakfast with Mrs. Zhang, Lu Jiu came in and said, "Ma'am, the Taoist priest is here."

Madam Zhang nodded and said, "Let him come in."

Lu Jiu responded, and when he was young, he led in an old man in blue with a long beard reaching his belly, and bowed to Madam Zhang with a whisk.

Mrs. Zhang returned the courtesy and said, "The Taoist priest doesn't need to be too polite." He invited him to sit down and have breakfast together.

Zhang Xiuyuan saw that the old Taoist in blue looked familiar, stepped forward and said, "Are you Taoist Fan?"

The blue-clothed old man smiled and said: "Little Miss Axiu has a good memory. The last time I saw you, you were only six years old."

Zhang Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Master Taoist, long time no see, why are you here today?"

Mrs. Zhang said: "The Taoist priest came last night. Yesterday was the Hungry Ghost Festival. I invited him to come to my house to do a ritual ceremony and accumulate some merit."

The others also saluted Fan Daochang and said hello.

Fan Daochang smiled at Bai Yingyang: "Little brother Xiaoyang, you have grown so big."

It was the first time Bai Yingyang heard someone call him that, and he was very surprised.

Fan Daochang laughed and said: "Brother Xiaoyang was only four or five years old at that time, probably he can't remember the poor way."

Zhang Ehu said: "Little white sheep, don't you recognize Daoist Fan? He took your name."

Bai Yingyang let out an "ah" and bowed to Taoist Fan again.

Fan Daochang helped him with a smile and said, "There is no need to be too polite."

When Bai Yingyang first arrived at the Zhang family, the Zhang family still lived in the old house in the western suburbs. At that time, he would cry at morning and at night, no matter how much the Zhangs and his wife teased him, it would never stop. , except for being weaker, there is nothing wrong with it.

Fan Daochang and Zhang Dahu are old friends, one day they went to meet friends at the mansion in the western suburbs, when they saw Bai Yingyang, they immediately turned pale with shock and said: "This child is yin, and he is easily haunted by spirits, if you don't care, there will be great disasters in the future." Immediately, "Day" With the word "Yingyang" next to it, he was named "Yingyang" to resist yin qi, and seeing that Zhang Ehu has a yang physique that is rare in a hundred years, he was told to accompany him day and night, and he must not be separated from Bai Yingyang.After this point, Bai Yingyang cried less.

After breakfast, Fan Daochang talked to everyone again, and then he left, and everyone sent him out of the door together.

Zhang Xiuyuan looked at Daoist Fan's back and said with a smile, "Fortunately, Daoist Fan is here, otherwise the little white sheep would not be the little white sheep."

Meng Lianpeng said, "Why?"

Zhang Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Before the Taoist priest named the little white sheep, he originally had another name, which was chosen by my brother."

Meng Lianpeng smiled and said, "What name did you choose?"

When Bai Yingyang first arrived at Zhang's house, Zhang Ehu suddenly had a younger brother, and he was so happy that he hugged him around to show off, and even named him himself, but he didn't have a drop of ink in his stomach, so he casually called him "Bai Sanhu" ".

Wen Yufu also heard this name for the first time, put his arms around Bai Yingyang's shoulders, and said seriously: "This name is very good, 'Little White Tiger' is more prestigious than 'Little White Sheep'." After finishing speaking, he couldn't hold back, lol.

Zhang Ehu smiled and said: "That's right. Daddy is Zhang Dahu, I am Zhang Erhu, and Little Baiyang is the younger brother. Naturally, he is called Bai Sanhu, and Axiu is called Zhang Humei."

Zhang Xiuyuan paused and said coquettishly, "Oh, it doesn't sound good!"

Everyone bent over laughing, and Mrs. Zhang couldn't help laughing.

Several people stayed up all night, talking and laughing for a while, all felt sleepy, so they went back to their rooms to rest.

When Zhang Ehu woke up, it was dusk, and he sat up and stared blankly at the quiet room. Meng Cuiqiao's belongings were all there, but he didn't know where he was going.Since Meng Cuiqiao left, whenever Zhang Ehu thought of him, he used wine to relieve his worries, so there were a bunch of wine jars on the floor beside his bed, and now he felt lonely again, and he didn't want to eat dinner, so he reached out to grab a jar and started drinking.

Wen Yufu knocked on the door of his room with the food box in hand, saw that he was holding a wine jar in his hand, and said, "Cousin, you're drinking again."

Zhang Ehu didn't answer, took out a note from the kit, looked at it in a daze.

Wen Yufu stretched his neck to look at it and said: "Flowers want to follow each other in the moon and moon, and meet each other so close to the end of the world."

This is exactly the signature that Meng Cuiqiao asked for in the Temple of the Red Lady. Zhang Ehu was furious because he left, and he was so angry that he stomped the signature to pieces. Fortunately, Bai Yingyang knew that he was agitated for a while, and he would regret it later. In desperation, he picked up the fragments, carefully pasted them again with paste, and handed them back to him. Now Zhang Ehu looks at this signature for a long time every day, thinking about others when he sees things.

Wen Yufu said: "Cousin, do you really miss your cousin so much?"

Zhang Ehu let out a long sigh.

Wen Yufu didn't believe it: "At Huimeng Martial Arts Hall, I saw you staring at Immortal Miaoyun's female apprentice without blinking. If you only remember your cousin, how could you stare at other girls?"

Zhang Ehu glanced at him, shook his head, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Fu'er, you should hurry up and marry a wife. I miss your cousin all day long, and the Wen family won't spread out."

Wen Yufu blushed immediately, and said anxiously: "My aunt saw that you were sleeping all the time, so she didn't ask you to come over for dinner, but let me bring you the food after I finish eating." Putting the food box in her hand on the table, she turned around and walked away. Walk.

Zhang Ehu stopped him and said, "Why did you bring it here, little white sheep?"

Wen Yufu turned around and made a face at him and said, "Little Baiyang went to have a romantic relationship with his cousin after having dinner, how can I have the time to take care of you, a drunk!"

Zhang Ehu sighed again, feeling more and more lonely, he didn't eat, and drank all the more than ten jars of wine by the bedside, he had slept for a day during the day, and now he didn't feel sleepy, so he went straight out of the west chamber In the courtyard, take a walk around the buildings of the Meng Mansion.

When Zhang Ehu thought about Mengcui Bridge, he would just take a walk around the house besides drinking. In just two months, he walked around the Meng Mansion hundreds of times. He knows exactly what Mu looks like.

Walking and walking, I came to the northwest corner of the back of the house, where there are a few osmanthus trees planted, and the night breeze blows the fragrance of osmanthus, which adds to the feeling of nostalgia!

At this moment, thick smoke suddenly rose from the courtyard not far to the south. Zhang Ehu recognized that it was the other courtyard of the Meng family ancestral hall.He ran over quickly, but saw that the gate of the ancestral hall was closed, and a man in white was sitting on the stone steps in the courtyard, who was using a yin and yang basin to burn ghost objects, and thick smoke was floating from the basin.

Zhang Ehu recognized Bai Yingyang at a glance, walked over and said, "Why are you burning brook money here?"

Bai Yingyang said: "I wanted to burn it in the ancestral hall, but the door is locked."

Zhang Ehu said: "Uncle Cen has the key, why don't you ask him for it?" Uncle Cen is a servant hired by Meng Cuiqiao to look at the house, and he is also the manager of the Meng residence.

Bai Yingyang said: "He knows that when I enter the ancestral hall, I must find someone to wait on me. I just want to quietly burn some brook money."

Zhang Ehu said: "Who are you burning it for?"

Bai Yingyang said: "Madam Bai."

Zhang Ehu said: "Who is Mrs. Bai?"

Bai Yingyang said: "It's the Mrs. Bai who led me to the Huimeng Martial Arts Hall." Now, I will meet Mrs. Bai in Liulin last night, talk with her and the content, and see the coffin dead in the main hall. After talking about it in detail, at the end, the voice became choked up, and tears flowed down.

Zhang Ehu wondered: "Why are you crying so well?"

Bai Yingyang cried: "I suspect... Mrs. Bai is my mother... the dead in the coffin... is my father..."

Zhang Ehu was taken aback, dumbfounded, and asked after a long while, "You...what did you say?"

Bai Yingyang cried: "I saw Mrs. Bai last night... I thought she was very kind, as if she was someone very close to me... Mrs. Hu said that she mistook me for her son... so I called her Niang Niang and gave her Kowtow... At that time, I... was very natural, as if I was supposed to kowtow to her..."

Zhang Ehu was puzzled and said, "Have you thought it through?"

Bai Yingyang didn't answer, his eyes drifted into the distance.

Zhang Ehu followed his gaze, and saw a huge pagoda tree to the east of the back seat of the Meng Mansion, half of which had been newly cut down, it was the one he saw in front of the Huimeng Martial Arts Hall last night A giant locust tree.

The back door of the Meng Mansion is in Huaihua Lane, only a few steps away from the main entrance of Huimeng Martial Arts Hall.

Bai Yingyang looked at Juhuai, and murmured to himself: "I have always misunderstood, thinking that I was abandoned by my family... I didn't expect that I was killed by the wicked, I escaped and lost my way, and I don't remember how to go home..."

Zhang Ehu also burned some ghost papers, and suddenly said: "The owner of Huangfu Hall said that they only moved here a few years ago. If Madam Ruobai is really your mother, she lured you there because she wanted to lure you home... Could it be Huimeng Martial Arts Hall used to be your home?"

Bai Yingyang said: "Most likely..."

Zhang Ehu held his hand and said: "In this case, let's go to the government office to check the household registration documents. If it is true or not, we will know immediately. Maybe you have other relatives in Meilong County."

Bai Yingyang's heart moved, he wiped away his tears and nodded repeatedly.
