Chapter 8: Ghost Marriage 4. The truth behind the ghost groom
Wu Yu had experienced a strange ghost marriage and dreamed of a female ghost in the daytime. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. When he woke up, it was almost noon. He had just woken up and hadn't come back to his senses when the blue and white porcelain phone rang. Wu Yu looked the room and found that Yunyun was not there. He fumbled for his phone on the bed and saw that it was really Yunyun calling.
"You haven't gotten up yet?" Yunyun smiled sweetly on the other end.
"You just got up, where have you been?" Wu Yu's tone was clearly full of blame.
"I went to Xinluo and Niao Niao's school this morning. Now we are preparing to make lunch. I thought you must be hungry if you got up."
Wu Yu hummed.
"You should come to the school to eat today. It's their idea."
"this……"
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Come over here quickly. I have to get busy." Yunyun smiled and hung up the phone.
Wu Yu held the phone for a while, wondering how Yunyun could get so close to the two sisters Niao Niao so quickly, or maybe it was because Yunyun could talk to them more easily. Actually, this was not without benefits, at least the closer she was to them, the truth about the old house would slowly surface. Wu Yu thought about this, quickly put on his clothes, and after a while, he closed the door and went out.
Wu Yu arrived at Xinluo Dance School at an unhurried pace. Seeing the door was closed, he gently pushed it open. Suddenly, a beautiful piano sound came over. Wu Yu's heart was moved when he heard it. He felt that the piano sound was as gentle as water. At this time, only Niao Niao was playing the piano, while Xinluo and Yunyun were talking and laughing. After a while, they couldn't help laughing.
When they saw Wu Yu coming, they smiled at him, and Wu Yu smiled back. Niaoniao continued to play the guqin. Wu Yu felt that the sound of Niaoniao's playing was like the gurgling of a spring, or the singing of birds in a quiet forest, making him feel as if he was in nature.
After the song was over, Xinluo asked Wu Yu to sit down next to Yunyun. Wu Yu couldn't help but clap his hands. Niao Niao moved her delicate body and smiled at Wu Yu with a shy look on her face: "Excuse me."
"That's great! If Niao Niao goes to Guangzhou to perform, it will definitely attract a lot of attention."
"Guangzhou? I grew up in Wuzhen and have never been to other cities. But I heard that Guangzhou is a big city and the buildings there are beautifully built. Sister Yun also said so." There was a gentle beauty on Niao Niao's face.
Wu Yu wanted to continue talking, but Yunyun winked at him and said with a smile, "Let's talk while we eat."
Niao Niao smiled innocently and said, "Okay." Then she walked towards a small door in front. At this time, Xinluo had already brought out the dishes.
Wu Yu stood up and was about to go over to help when he heard a slight noise and saw a handsome figure walking in. Wu Yu was immediately surprised when he saw it was him. That person was none other than Su Wei - a person who looked very similar to Su Wei.
When Xinluo saw him, she called out, "Niao Niao, your students are here."
"Who is the naughty one?" Niaoniao slowly walked out with the dishes. Seeing that it was Su Wei, she laughed and scolded, "Sister, how could you fool him?"
Su Wei had already walked over and said with a smile: "Seeing you two sisters smiling like this, I know how deep your sisterly love is."
"Wei is right. No wonder my Niao Niao would watch..." Xinluo was halfway through his words when he was suddenly blocked by Niao Niao.
…
They laughed and joked for a while, then sat down around the table.
Wu Yu had been secretly watching Su Wei from the moment he came in until the meal, thinking only of yesterday's incident. But Su Wei seemed to be avoiding him on purpose, barely glancing at him. Wu Yu was not comfortable , and Su Wei didn't seem to have any intention of telling him the truth, so Wu Yu felt very uneasy during the meal.
After Su Wei came, Yunyun showed a look of surprise on her face, and her face turned pale and dark.
After the meal, Niao Niao smiled and said, "Su Wei wants to live in the town for a while, so he wants to live with us in the old house. This way, we will have more company in the future. First, we will have more people to talk to, and second, it won't be as boring as before."
After hearing this, Wu Yu and Yun Yun were secretly shocked.
Xinluo held up her little face and smiled, "I'm afraid I'll be lonely in the future."
Everyone understood Xinluo's meaning, and her face turned red, making her look as charming as a beautiful peach blossom .
Wu Yu and Yun Yun barely heard what was said next, as they were each thinking about their own things. About half an hour after the meal, Su Wei said he had something else to do and would see if he could move over in the evening, so he excused them and left.
Seeing this, Wu Yu asked Yunyun if she would go back to the old house. Yunyun said that she was learning dance with Niao Niao and Xinluo and would not be back until the evening. Wu Yu then waved to them and hurried out the door.
Wu Yu went out to the street and saw Su Wei walking back to the old house, so he ran up to him.
Su Wei heard footsteps and turned around to see that it was Wu Yu. He was not surprised at all and said with a smile, "Why don't you stay there for a while? First, you can look at the beauties and second, listen to the music."
Wu Yu didn't expect him to be so humorous, and said with a smile: "I had planned to do so, but then I remembered that there were some things I didn't understand, so I asked you."
"You mean the ghost wedding yesterday." Su Wei seemed to know in advance that he wanted to ask about this matter, and said very calmly.
Wu Yu was surprised, then nodded.
Su Wei was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Actually, I am a collector of folk customs. Over the years, I have been traveling all over the country to collect customs from all over the country. After coming to the ancient town, I heard that there was a ghost wedding in the ancient town, so I went to experience it yesterday and also to earn some income. But I didn't expect to see you there."
Wu Yu was half-believing and half-doubting what he said, but he couldn't understand why he led him there.
Su Wei suddenly had a strange look on his face. He looked at Wu Yu and murmured, "Yesterday was really strange. After I arrived at the village, I seemed to be bewitched by the ghost bride and lost consciousness."
Although Wu Yu didn't believe what he said, how could he explain the scene where he saw the ghost bride standing up from the coffin last night?
He still felt confused and wanted to continue asking, but Su Wei said he had to go out to get busy and left without looking back.
Looking at his back, he always felt that he looked like Su Wei. He wondered how there could be such a similar back in the world. On the other hand, he always felt that the ghost wedding yesterday was not as simple as he said. There must be something hidden behind it. Wu Yu felt that Su Wei's sudden appearance seemed to be related to Su Wei's death, but he couldn't figure out what it was. Or maybe it was just a coincidence.
