Views:

Zhang Ergou said that the stone he brought back was given by an immortal, and he could "deliver a child" to the Zhang family, which made the Zhang family choose to believe Zhang Ergou after struggling for a while, because Zhang Ergou said "Being able to have a big fat boy" has completely touched the hearts of the Zhang family.

That day, Zhang Ergou really put the stone under his bed. In order to verify whether the stone was effective, Zhang Ergou's daughter-in-law also asked him to have sex with him, which made him feel that he finally raised his eyebrows. took a handful.

In a blink of an eye, a month has passed. During this month, Ergou was extremely uneasy, for fear that his nonsense about the stone would be exposed to the Zhang family, and then he would be expelled from the Zhang family; at this time, he hoped that he would Daughter-in-law can really get pregnant.

At the same time, during this month, Zhang Ergou was thinking about going under the bridge to hold the child every day. Every time he thought about it, he was sure that he was really a child when he was holding it, but why does a good child turn into a stone? , then there is only one answer, he encountered dirty things.

So during this period of strength, Zhang Ergou couldn't sleep well every day. He always got up in the middle of the night to see if the stone under the bed had turned into a child again. Fortunately, the stone was very quiet, and there was no strange change.

In the blink of an eye, a month passed, and Zhang Ergou's wife's "menstrual event" did not come, which made the Zhang family all get excited. Because this was a precursor to pregnancy, the Zhang family also treated Zhang Ergou a little better. The dog went to work in the field more diligently, and when he got home, he could have a warm meal with the Zhang family in a peaceful manner.

At this time, Zhang Ergou also believed his own nonsense. He felt that the stone he brought back was given to him by the gods to "deliver children" to the Zhang family.

After another month, Zhang Ergou's wife's "menstrual matter" still didn't come, so he went to the county town and invited a husband to go back. After the husband gave Ergou's wife's pulse, he smiled and said congratulations to the Zhang family: "Congratulations. You, Ling Qianjin is the happy vein."

Hearing Lang Zhong's words, the Zhang family immediately burst into laughter, and Ergou's father-in-law even gave Lang Zhong some extra money to give out red envelopes.

After confirming that Ergou's daughter-in-law is pregnant, Ergou's position in Zhang's family is completely stable, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law's attitude towards him is also swaying, and it is no longer useless to scold Ergou.

At this time, Ergou finally felt proud. Of course, he felt that what he should be grateful for was the stone he brought back from under the bridge, so he found a perfect place at home and gave the stone to him. They worshipped and gave the stone a name "ShiZiShi".

The Zhang family would naturally have no opinion on this, because Zhang Ergou said that the stone was given by an immortal, and it really worked.

So after the stone was enshrined, the Zhang family worshipped more diligently than Ergou.

The Zhang family spread the matter so much, and soon the whole Houping Village people knew about the "birth stone". Many people who wanted children in their families were even willing to pay for the Zhang family, hoping to make them Take the "birth stone" home and put it under the bed for a day.

When the Zhang family saw that they had money, they agreed, but in order to fear that the stone would be damaged, the Zhang family asked those who borrowed the stone to borrow it the first day and return it early the next day.

Of course, whether this stone is really effective, more people are still in a wait-and-see state, so there are only three people who borrowed the stone first.

After waiting for three months, all the three daughters-in-law of the family who borrowed the stone were pregnant with children, which made the matter of the Zhang family's "children stone" once again a sensation in Houtai Village, and even Qiantai and several nearby villages. everyone knows.

As a result, the people who came to Zhang's house every day to ask for "birthstones" began to become incessant, and even some dignitaries in the county town paid money to ask for it.

As there were more and more people, the Zhang family also became more and more greedy, and they began to ask for prices, which made ordinary people unable to ask for the "birth stone".

After that, there were fewer people who wanted to be born, but as long as they came to ask for it, they were all dignitaries, and each of them could make the Zhang family make a fortune. Since then, the Zhang family has also become a big family of the former and later generations of the platform. , The family bought land, hired long-term workers, and turned from a rich peasant into a big landlord.

And this year, the child of Ergou was finally born, and he was really a big fat boy.

The Zhang family is even happier now, and the two dogs can easily speak at the Zhang family. It stands to reason that the Zhang family should live a happy life, but no one thought that the good times would not last long, and the Zhang family would Strange things began to happen one after another, and these strange things disturbed the whole Zhang family.

When Wang Jialiang's father said this, You Xiaoqing pulled my hand beside him, obviously she was also fascinated by it, and I and I couldn't help but ask him what the strange thing was. He may have said something. With a dry mouth, I took a sip of water before continuing.

The child in Ergou's family had the first seven days left, and the child cried very much, which was not surprising to the Zhang family. It's normal for a child to cry, but on the seventh day, the child stopped crying and began to cry every day. He laughed loudly, and the sound of laughter was very strange, not like a newborn baby at all, but like a seven or eight-year-old child.

The Zhang family was afraid that something would happen to the child, so they asked Langzhong to show it. The Langzhong told the Zhang family that the child was fine and healthy, and the Zhang family was relieved. They thought that the child might just like to laugh by nature. As for laughing People's voices differ from person to person, and it's likely that their own children's voices are special.

Although the Zhang family tried to comfort themselves in this way, they still worried a lot about their children. In this kind of anxiety, Ergou's child was full moon. These days they also named the child "Zhang Shisheng". The meaning of ' is also clear at a glance, indicating that this child was obtained because of the "birth stone".

On the day of the full moon, the Zhang family held the full moon wine, invited a lot of villagers, and also invited the poor parents of Ergou. I have to mention Ergou's unfilial piety here. He is on the Zhang family's side. Being rich, it’s okay to talk, but I never thought of helping my parents, and even Ergou kept making excuses and embarrassing himself at the Full Moon Wine. Halfway through the meal, I left with tears in my eyes.

Before leaving, Ergou's father said to him: "Ergou, the family is poor, your mother and I can't give you a good life, I know you hate us in your heart, but you must know that we I've got the best of the family for you..."

Ergou's father wanted to say more, but was pulled away by Ergou's mother.

At the end of the full moon wine that day, Ergou drank a lot. After waiting for the relatives to disperse, Ergou wandered back to the room. At this time, his wife and children fell asleep, and he was still half-drunk and half-awake. Thinking of the words my father said to him when he left.

At this time, Ergou heard someone crying in the room where the "Birth Stone" was enshrined in his house, and the voice sounded familiar, but who it was, Ergou couldn't remember for a while. People are generally more courageous, so Ergou wandered out the door and went to the room.

In the yard, the cry became more and more real, and Ergou finally heard who was crying, so he subconsciously shouted: "Mother!"

The voice in the room ignored him, but continued to cry, and the more he cried, the more sad he became. At this time, Ergou was also infected by the cry, and he couldn't help but remember when his father carried him into the river to fish and climb the tree when he was a child. Dig out the bird's nest for him, and give him the delicious food first...

Thinking of these two dogs, he suddenly cried, and he said to the crying in the room: "Mother, it's my son who is not filial. I shouldn't treat you and Dad like that today. I was wrong, don't cry!"

Ergou cried to himself, and didn't think about why "his mother" appeared in this house. It was already late at night, and Ergou's wine was blowing in a cool breeze, and so was his brain. getting darker.

Ergou staggered a few steps to the door, then pushed open the door and knelt in front of his mother to admit his mistake and apologize, but as soon as he opened the door, the crying stopped abruptly!

In the pitch-dark room, I couldn't see half a person, let alone crying, it was hard to hear even the sound of a mouse now.

Suddenly Ergou shuddered, and his drowsy brain was slightly awake. What happened to the cry just now? Ergou was asking himself in his heart, he looked around, there was nothing else except the darkness where he could not see his fingers, and he even felt that he couldn't even see the position of the door of the room.

He fell into complete darkness.

Ergou was frightened by this situation, so he hurriedly shouted "Help", and at this moment, he felt that someone was pulling at the corner of his clothes, he looked in that direction, but it was only pitch black, let alone others, He couldn't even see his own body.

This made Ergou even more frightened. He fled in the dark. After the group, he felt that something fell from a height and hit him on the head, so he fainted.

When Ergou was in a coma, Ergou had a dream. He dreamed that there were many children around him crying and laughing for a while, but he couldn't see any child's face clearly, let alone remember the appearance of any child.

When Ergou woke up, he was lying on the bed in his room, his daughter-in-law was breastfeeding the child next to him, and the child kept looking at Ergou with a "haha" smile.

Ergou felt a little pain in the head, only to find a red belt wrapped around his head when he wiped his head, Ergou's daughter-in-law saw that he was awake and said, "Why did you go to that room when you were drunk yesterday? Fortunately, there is nothing wrong, I wrapped it for you on your head, and the belt is clean, I just washed it a few days ago."

Was smashed by a "birth stone"

Ergou was muttering in his heart, could it be that he really drank too much yesterday, and all that was his hallucination after being drunk
