Since Widow Zhou asked my mother to wait, my mother had no choice but to wait. After all, she had something to ask for, and no matter how anxious she was, she had to show enough patience and sincerity.
After Widow Zhou said these words of "wait," she stopped talking. Instead, she closed her eyes. Her whole body was shocked again, and then she lay on the table. It took a long time to recover.
After resting for a few minutes, Widow Zhou walked to the bed. Regardless of my mother's surprised eyes, she pulled the quilt and wrapped it around her. Then she sat on the bed, her body still trembling slightly.
"Uh... Xiuyun... uh... could you please make... uh... a bowl of ginger soup... uh... bring it to me." When Widow Zhou said this, her teeth were chattering.
My mother responded and immediately went out to make ginger soup without asking any more questions.
This is the unique kindness and simplicity of mountain people. Although she is worried about her children, she can't bear to see Widow Zhou frozen like this. Besides, aren't others trying to help her
Pushing open the door and entering the kitchen, my mother found someone sitting in the kitchen. The sudden bump into her really startled her, who was already in shock.
As a result, if you look closely, isn't it the Zhou family's second daughter-in-law sitting in front of the big stove in the kitchen
"Why are you here? It's cold today, why don't you go to bed quickly?" After seeing the person clearly, my mother breathed a sigh of relief and said hello to Tuesday's daughter-in-law.
"I'm cooking the stove. I'm going to boil some water and make some ginger soup." Tuesday's daughter-in-law said in a normal tone while adding firewood to the stove.
"Making ginger soup? What a coincidence, I also help your sister-in-law make ginger soup." My mother was very surprised. She exclaimed while helping Tuesday's daughter-in-law add firewood to the stove.
"It's just for my sister-in-law. She used to drink a bowl of ginger soup after finishing her work. I guess she will want it this time too. Shouldn't I rush to make a bowl?"
"Haha, you sisters-in-law have such a good relationship." My mother said sincerely. If this were true, Tuesday's wife really didn't say anything to Widow Zhou.
"It's not easy for my sister-in-law. I feel that she is suffering." On Tuesday, the wife stood up and scooped out a ladle of water from the large water tank, and poured it into the hot pot with a 'slop' sound.
My mother didn't know what to say, so she simply stood up, picked up the kitchen knife, and helped her chop up the ginger on the chopping board.
The two of them were working silently in the kitchen, and soon a bowl of hot ginger soup was ready.
Then my mother carried the ginger soup in a coarse porcelain bowl and walked out of the kitchen carefully. Tuesday's daughter-in-law followed closely behind my mother. As soon as my mother stepped out of the kitchen, Tuesday's daughter-in-law sighed quietly behind my mother. .
"Sister Xiuyun, my sister-in-law is suffering."
This sentence again, my mother really didn’t know what to say, but what my wife said next on Tuesday really shocked my mother, and she almost spilled the ginger soup in her hand.
"Sometimes I really feel that my eldest brother has not left, and I don't know if it is good to pester my sister-in-law like this? My sister-in-law's health is getting worse and worse."
After saying these words, Tuesday's wife turned around and went back to the house. She probably had seen some situations too many times, and she felt that it was okay to say it to relieve her sullenness.
But what about my mother? He finally managed to steady the ginger soup in his hand. He stood there for a long time before he regained consciousness. Thinking about Widow Zhou's behavior in the west wing, and thinking about Tuesday's wife's words, she already believed it in her heart. Eight points.
Women are always more emotional. Compared to men, such things are scary to say, but they also touch a softer part of their hearts. If the couple didn't have a deep relationship, how could they still stay together despite the separation of yin and yang?
Thinking of this, my mother felt a little more sympathetic to Widow Zhou, and even her eyes softened. When she entered the gloomy west wing with ginger soup, she felt less afraid.
Holding the ginger soup, my mother fed Widow Zhou one mouthful at a time. Maybe her mood changed, and my mother's movements became a little softer. After feeding the ginger soup, my mother couldn't help but grab Widow Zhou's hand, thinking He tried to keep her warm, but when he grabbed her, he found that she was very cold.
Widow Zhou broke away from my mother's hand and shook her head. Her eyes clearly told my mother that it didn't matter, that she was willing.
My mother saw something, and Widow Zhou knew it. This time things happened in a hurry, and Widow Zhou didn't have to worry about anything when doing things. You must know that when she was doing business in the past, she was always alone. The one who gets into the house first.
If my mother didn’t see anything like this, Widow Zhou herself wouldn’t be able to believe it.
The two women, at this time, had some tacit exchanges at the same time.
Pointing to the stool, Widow Zhou motioned for my mother to sit over. She turned her head and started mumbling again on the bed. She was probably really discussing something important. Widow Zhou had a rich expression and spoke quickly. , and even some body movements.
My mother waited patiently. Because of what my daughter-in-law said on Tuesday, in my mother’s eyes, this scene looked like a couple discussing something. Unfortunately, they were not only thousands of miles apart. .
Looking at these two couples, my mother remembered that she and my father also had a deep relationship. She wondered if one of them would make this choice if one of them left first. Thinking about it, my mother actually shed tears.
This is something only my mother can do. If it were my father who was as crazy as he was, I would probably only have a weird and terrifying feeling.
Just when my mother was feeling sad and pregnant, Widow Zhou also stopped her chirping, her body shook violently, she opened her eyes again, threw off her quilt, and sat down across the table from my mother. .
This time Widow Zhou didn't say any nonsense, she opened her mouth and said to my mother: "I am Zhou Da."
Although she had been mentally prepared for Zhou Da to stay here, my mother was still so frightened when she suddenly heard Widow Zhou say that she was Zhou Da. She stood up immediately and sat down again after a long time.
Could this be a ghost? My mother, who had never left the countryside, didn't know much about anything else, but she had heard a lot about ghosts and ghosts, and she still had some knowledge about ghosts.
But the Widow Zhou in front of me, no, I should say it’s Mrs. Zhou, didn’t have the slightest intention to talk nonsense with my mother. She said straight to the point: “I don’t know what happened to your baby. As soon as you brought him in, I saw him following you. You have a group of very fierce comrades, do you understand what they are?"
Upon hearing this, my mother turned pale with fright. This one was scary enough. What should I do if there are a group of them
When I thought about being haunted by a group of ghosts day and night, and when I thought about a group of ghosts living in my house day and night, my mother felt like she was going crazy. She suddenly lost her idea. Then she started shouting with a trembling voice: "Old man!" Chen, Lao Chen..."
At this time, she needs the man in the family to make an idea.
Who would have thought that as soon as her voice fell, Zhou Da in front of her said loudly: "Don't shout, men have strong yang energy, and I can't bear the collision."
Fortunately, my dad was in Tuesday's room at this time, and he probably didn't hear my mom's voice, which was muted due to trembling.
However, after Zhou Da shouted, my mother finally regained her composure and was no longer so afraid of Zhou Da. She couldn't stand the collision of the man's yang energy. It seemed that ghosts were not omnipotent.
To put it another way, there is hope for my son.
Seeing that my mother was quiet, Zhou Da continued without waiting for my mother to ask questions: "Don't blame me. I have been in the world for so long and I am already very weak. I knew this when you came in with your son in your arms." It’s not easy, I didn’t want to get into trouble. But I couldn’t help my mother-in-law begging me.”
At this point, Zhou Da sighed and muttered: "It's useless to ask me to accumulate virtue. It's useless for me and Yuehong to accumulate more virtue."
Zhou Da's statement is actually quite miserable, but after my mother heard about a group of ghosts, she didn't bother to delve into the matter of Zhou Da and Widow Zhou. She only wanted Zhou Da to continue talking and make it clear.
She believed that if there was really no other way, Widow Zhou and his wife would not mutter for so long, and they would look like they had something to say to themselves.
I have to believe that my mother has completely calmed down by this time, so she has such analytical ability. Therefore, never underestimate women’s wisdom and greater adaptability to adversity than men.
As expected, Zhou Da was very satisfied with my mother's calmness at this time, and continued talking to himself: "They threatened me. I originally wanted to help your son look at Tianling Gai to see if there was any death energy, but after a look, They bared their teeth and threatened me. They were lonely wild ghosts with a lot of resentment on their bodies. Those who stayed in the world were different from me. Not to mention a group of them. Even if I met one of them, I would have to go around. Let’s go. So, I have no choice.”
"What are we going to do?" After hearing this, my mother finally asked. What Zhou Da said about her son was so cruel, how could my mother endure it
"Listen to me." Zhou Da waved his hand, and then continued: "Ghost eyes are different from human eyes. I don't have any great abilities, but I can still see a person's destiny clearly. For example, if a person has It's a good thing, there must be a red light on his heavenly spirit cover. I have seen such people from a distance and have to hide. If a person does not receive blessings or disasters, there will be nothing on the heavenly spirit cover. If a person has misfortune, It must be gray energy. If it is black energy, it is death energy. If you don't die, you will be seriously ill. I said, I just want to do my duty to help your son see if there is death energy, and then put something around him. I'll just tell you about his situation. But I can't see your son. He feels very hazy. I want you to hold him over and take a closer look, but I'm threatened again. When I look at your son, I see his head. It’s a little bit yellow, but I really can’t understand this.”
Zhou Da finished all this in one breath, explaining the situation clearly to my mother. But I had no choice but to listen to what he said. He had no solution at all, so my mother's question was in vain.
"Then that's all my son has?" My mother couldn't help but feel sad. Originally, she believed that Zhou Da had a solution, but the cruel reality made her dare not have such illusions.
But she was unwilling to give in. The strong unwillingness made my mother ask one more question.
"This..." A look of hesitation appeared on Widow Zhou's face, which was obviously Zhou Da's hesitation.
When my mother saw that there was something going on, she immediately looked at Zhou Da with eyes full of pleading and hope.
