1341. Spiritual Embryo or Ghostly Embryo
.Just like the paintings my brother makes, it follows a stream of consciousness. If my brother is a soul painter, then he's a soul craftsman.My brother's eyes were wide with astonishment, this scarecr...Originally, this ultrasound picture belonged to a "disciple" of Uncle Mo.
He claimed to be a disciple, but in reality, he was just a subordinate of Mo Shu, helping him travel between towns and villages to collect goods.
Finding things that are very old is not easy. Things that are too old are basically impossible to find, but items from the last hundred or two years are not so difficult.
It means spending years on the road, constantly traveling and living a nomadic lifestyle. They'd move from one district to another, meticulously searching for treasures in every old goods market they could find.
If you find something, contact Uncle Mo. Uncle Mo will come to assess and purchase it, then resell it for a profit. Afterward, he will share some of the earnings with this "disciple" as compensation for their effort.
To say that this year I earned just 20 to 30 thousand yuan, although it was hard work, for an ordinary person, it is also a business with no capital investment, and I can also learn and accumulate experience.
This disciple recently found a problem when he went home to pay respects to his ancestors during the Ghost Festival - it seemed like he could grab sheep on top of his head.
My brother was taken aback and asked, “Green”
Mo Shu smacked his lips and said, "More than just green, this belly is so big it can't be hidden, completely green."
"How long has he been gone" my brother pressed.
"He's been out buying goods since after the New Year, for half a year now," said Uncle Mo.
"That's normal if it was planted during the Chinese New Year! Every year, our village is full of new life during the Lunar New Year. Everyone who lives outside comes back, and with nothing to do, they just play mahjong, visit relatives, and make babies." My brother glanced at the ultrasound report.
Uncle Mo whispered, “Isn't this just a checkup Once you check it out, you'll find the problem. According to the diagnosis, she's seven months pregnant, but the timing doesn't add up.”
My brother stroked his chin and smiled, "Looking at it this way, this brother does seem to have a bit of a green glow... You wouldn't want me to comfort him, would you Well, if you want to get through life, you have to tolerate having a little green on your head."
"I wouldn't dare ask you two for this kind of thing!" Mo Shu glared. "It's just that a few days after the inspection..."
I listened carefully and learned that this man with grass on his head, his family is very traditional. They said they were going to see a village doctor to check the sex of the baby. If it's a boy, they will keep it, but if it's a girl, they will abort it.
As a mother, I hate to hear the most disrespectful words about life.
But all people in the world are different, and everyone has their own thoughts and karma. There's no way to control that.
"...discovered that the fetus was still."
I suddenly heard Uncle Mo say that, and immediately asked, "What do you mean by 'no movement'"
"He's... dead." Mo Shu mouthed.
"That's not the most outrageous part. The most outrageous part is that this pregnant woman said the baby was still moving, even kicking her. She refused to go to the hospital, afraid of being induced—she’s so big now, she’s afraid they might both die, or that she'll never be able to have children again." Uncle Mo said.
And in the countryside, if pushed too far, not only would it be a scandal exposed, but also fear that this pregnant woman might take her own life… My disciple thought about just enduring it. He decided to stay home for the next six months, watching and seeing who the real father was, and whether the child could be born.
Uncle Mo furrowed his brows deeply and said, "A few days ago, he called me late at night, saying he heard his wife making strange noises in her room, thinking there was an adulterer. He grabbed a wooden stick and went to check, but when he pushed open the door, he got goosebumps. There was only his wife sleeping inside, with her legs wide apart and trembling all over!"
My skin crawled, and I rubbed my arms.
"He's a bit superstitious, afraid he might have angered some spirits, so he came to me. As soon as I heard it could be a ghost child—" Uncle Mo turned his gaze to me.
I have goosebumps.
Come ask this person who has carried a "phantom pregnancy" for advice, shall we
People in my circle who've heard about me, I bet most of them, just like Uncle Mo, think my ghost husband is some powerful spirit.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
We're too lazy to explain it, and we don't need to.
"Uncle Mo, this ghost fetus isn't something you can get pregnant with just by wanting to," my brother chuckled, tapping the tea table. "This might be because the child in her womb disappeared and attracted some evil spirit to possess her."
"So you experts in this field are, Miss Qiao. Little Qiao is still the proxy head of the Shen family and a special advisor, how impressive! I'm just an old man messing with gadgets, I had no choice but to ask you guys over. This trouble fee—"
"Alright, alright, no need to talk about money." My brother waved his hand.
"Uncle Mo also said a little awkwardly: 'I know you guys are definitely not short of money now, but this is the rule. In this circle, there's no such thing as doing favors for people without asking for anything in return! This is too much, I don't have that much money either. Too little, and it would diminish the status of the head of the Shen family and the head of the Mu family..."
"Okay, okay, I get it. Am I setting the price" My brother smiled and held up two fingers.
"Two, two million" Mo Shu dared not confirm.
I almost spilled my teacup. This Mo Shu is so extravagant, right His expectations are sky-high, he thinks it's two million to treat us! And he just blurted it out like that.
My brother couldn't help but laugh: "Uncle Mo, how much did you get compensated for the demolition You're so lavish!"
"Then how much is this Twenty thousand isn't very much, is it..." Uncle Mo couldn't guess.
"Two thousand, just reimburse me for the round-trip gas money," my brother said with a grin.
Uncle Mo shook his head and said, "Young Master Mu, don't joke around. How could two thousand pieces possibly be enough to treat the both of you If word got out, wouldn't it be a sign of lowering your status..."
"We don't have much status," my brother said lightly. "Money, we're not short on now either. Taking on the commission is just picking up some work... Three and a half years ago, our New Year's Eve dinner was only a few hundred yuan. On the first day of the new year, you gave us a commission worth 100,000 yuan, which solved our urgent needs. This can be considered fate."
Uncle Mo was so touched that he couldn't speak. He patted my brother on the shoulder, lowering his status and randomly acknowledging him as a brother, saying: "That's why I said Mu younger brother has promise! You have a big heart! A broad mind! Now that you have status and position, you still remember us ordinary people. Your character is top-notch! If you weren't married, I would marry several of my daughters to you!"
"Pfft......!!!" My brother spit out his tea.
Uncle Mo was obviously joking, but it still gave us a fright. It even made his daughter, who was serving the dishes, blush and scold her father for talking nonsense.
When we boarded the bus with our data, I couldn't help but glance at my brother.
After becoming a father, this young master Mu still has that sunny disposition, plus a faint air of world-weariness. Combined with his mischievous and teasing nature...
Well, well, attracting bees and butterflies.
"Xiao Qiao, what's with that look..." My brother asked.
"No, no ~~seeing you through thousands of sails~~ still a boy...."
"Huh!" My brother mumbled while adjusting the navigation, "You've gotten all fancy and pretentious after training with Jiang Qiyun... Have you double-checked that you brought everything"
I lowered my head to rummage through my bag. It wasn't anything special looking, but it was packed with essentials for survival.
The newly added summoning scroll seems to have changed a bit, I took it out and had a look.
"What's wrong" my brother asked.
"This spirit summoning paper... It seemed like there were words on it just now... Now they're gone." I'm a little confused about how this thing works.
"Before, Qiyee wasn't giving out the summoning talismans for playing around in Nanyu, right He said it was for serious business. Could a task just appear on the surface" My brother guessed.
Well, I nodded. Young Master Mu is indeed very clever.g, there's no way I could be bait, right"Shen Qingrui frowned and muttered, “Being pregnant is amazing, isn't it”“…You can just try getting pregnant and see for yourself.” I rolled my eyes. “Come on,...
