Chapter 26 Breaking Down the Door
” Ghost Sister, it’s me, Erbao! I’ve come to see you, open the door!”
Gu Youyou’s face darkened. What a brat! She’d have to be crazy to open it.
“Maybe she’s asleep? I heard your Ghost Sister sleeps all the time!” the child beside her whispered.
Gu Erbao shook his head. “I just saw her walking outside with her cane. How could she be asleep so quickly? She’s definitely faking it.”
Gu Youyou: “…”
He knocked a few more times, and seeing no response, Gu Erbao pounded harder, much louder than before.
“Ghost Sister, open the door! Or I’ll kick it down!”
Gu Youyou: “…”
Gu Youyou wouldn’t be afraid of the old dark room in the Gu family, but this door to Jin Zijing’s house… these two brats might actually be able to kick it down.
Gu Youyou rolled her eyes and said indifferently, “I want to rest. You guys go play somewhere else.”
Gu Erbao was overjoyed and shouted, “See? I told you she wasn’t asleep! Don’t worry, this time I’ll definitely let you see our Ghost Sister. But don’t forget, if her hair is white, you’ll have to herd cattle for me for three days!”
The child retorted, “Hmph, my grandma said only grandmas have white hair. Your Ghost Sister just got married, how could her hair be white? I don’t believe it.”
“You won’t believe it, you’ll see in a bit.”
“Okay, I’ll see. And don’t forget, if her hair isn’t white, you’ll have to herd cattle for me for three days!”
“Alright, alright, pinky promise!”
So, Gu Youyou heard the two mischievous kids outside make a bet on her hair color and then agree to break down Jin Zijing’s door together. Good heavens!
Gu Youyou really wanted to curse. She was now experiencing what it felt like to be a rare animal.
A tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs, a phoenix fallen into the water is no better than a chicken. She really needed to get better as soon as possible, otherwise those two kids would bully her.
Now she just hoped Jin Zijing’s door wasn’t as dilapidated as it looked, and that it was sturdier, so the two kids wouldn’t actually kick it down.
The sound of kicking the door came, mixed with the cheers of the two brats, who were kicking it with great enthusiasm.
No way, once is never enough. There are so many kids in the village; what if this guy brings them here several times a day to see something unusual? Wouldn’t she be driven crazy by their noise?
If she couldn’t even handle a few kids, she might as well just die a pathetic death.
Gu Youyou stood up, leaning on her crutch, looked around the house, and saw a knife by the stove. She picked it up, and with her dry hair, stood coldly at the door.
Fine, kick it open, kick it open and scare you two brats to death!
As for how Gu Erbao determined she would have white hair, that’s a story. This was a time when the boy, taking advantage of his mother Huang Xiangwen bringing medicine to Gu Youyou, slipped into the backyard while Huang Xiangwen wasn’t looking and he secretly peeked through the door.
Gu Youyou’s hair was dry and yellow, and it was quite possible that her vision was blurred in the sunlight.
From then on, Gu Erbao thought he had obtained the first news about the “ghost sister” and boasted everywhere that his “ghost sister” had a head of white hair.
The two naughty children kicked and shoved for a while, and Jin Zijing’s dilapidated door finally met its glorious end.
Looking at the broken door hanging askew to one side, Gu Youyou thought to herself, tomorrow is her homecoming day, and Jin Zijing will definitely take her back to the Gu family, which means he’ll have to repair the door in the dark tonight.
