Chapter 32: Meng Po is not normal
After my daughter came back from vacation and told her in detail about her study and life abroad, I had an impulse to tell my wife not to worry, my daughter has a good academic performance abroad, she is an A in every class, and there is no problem in life.
Let my mother-in-law's family force me to go on a blind date, my heart is not a taste, and my heart is even more eager to see my wife.
But my daughter is a night owl, and I am afraid that I will miss something, so when my daughter returns to school abroad, I immediately find an excuse to go down to find my wife's ghost.
When she went down last time, Xiaomeng said that judging from Meng Po's reaction, she also felt that Meng Po should know something, but she didn't know no matter how she asked.
I'm going to focus on talking to Meng Po this time.
On the way to find Xiaomeng, I met an old ghost again.
I watched him spit out three smoke rings before approaching him, jokingly, "Kung Fu is good!"
Probably because someone found out that he had nothing to do, the old ghost was a little embarrassed to "hehe" twice, and said: "You came down to find your wife again! If you want me to say, don't be so dead-eyed, after so many years, if we are lonely ghosts like us who don't want to see and don't bother to reincarnate, there should have been news a long time ago, unless she has died again, turned into a wisp of green smoke or a pinch of dust." If you really have the heart, send her more food, clothes and flowers during the New Year's holidays, and ask for peace of mind, you have to ........"
"Don't say it, old ghost, you're not me, you can't understand my mood and feelings. I stopped the old ghost from continuing, and threw the remaining half of the pack of cigarettes to him: "There is no more, you can make do with this half pack." ”
When the old ghost saw me turn around and leave, he hurriedly stopped me: "Hey, don't be in a hurry to leave, I still have something important to tell you!"
I didn't want to waste time with him, and I was afraid that the "important matter" in his mouth was related to his wife, so I had to stop and turn my head and ask, "What's important?"
"The Li gangster I mentioned to you before, I heard that he doesn't change his bad habits and often goes to the top to cause trouble, I want to remind you that you have to be careful when you run down one trip after another. ”
I didn't understand what the old ghost was going to say, but the old ghost looked serious, but it wasn't about his wife, I didn't want to listen to him, I shook my hand a little impatiently, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, I know." ”
"Is your daughter back to school?" When she found Xiaomeng, she still looked unhappy, but it passed quickly.
"How do you know my daughter is back?"
"May I not know, I'm waiting for you at your doorstep almost every once in a while. ”
Xiaomeng knew that I hadn't entered her world, and I couldn't feel her getting into my pocket. She just complained a little, but it also made me sigh: Why can't my wife be like her every day at the door or into the house to see and sit?
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, you know I didn't mean to. Let's go, let's go to Meng Po!" I gently stroked Xiaomeng's shoulder to show comfort.
Meng Po was boiling soup in her shop at the head of the bridge.
Seeing two large iron pots on the figure-eight stove immediately reminded me of the scene of making tofu in my hometown for the New Year when I was a child.
"Granny Meng!" Xiao Meng walked in front of her, and Granny Meng was pouring a scoop of boiled soup into a large vat at the door, ready to help those who were allowed to be reincarnated forget the grievances and hatreds of their previous lives.
Meng Po raised her head and fixed her eyes on Xiao Meng for a few seconds, probably recognizing Xiao Meng coming, and said "Why is it here again" not very enthusiastic, and then turned around and continued to transfer Meng Po soup from the pot to the vat.
"Hello Granny Meng, I'm looking for you, my wife ......" I think Xiaomeng is a "nosy", and I may be more effective than Xiaomeng when I speak.
But before she finished speaking, she was scolded back by Meng Po, and she didn't even look at me, just glanced at Xiaomeng and said, "She said, I know you're looking for your wife." I also said, don't ask me, I don't know. ”
Even if you don't know, it's not so cold! What's more, Meng Po was also a person who cried over the Great Wall back then, she should be able to empathize with my current obsession?
I believe in Xiaomeng's judgment more, Meng Po should know something. But why is she so ruthless?
Sincerely, the gold and stone are open. I don't believe that Meng Pohui is really hard-hearted.
Regardless of whether Meng Po could listen to it or not, I motioned to Xiaomeng to pick up another gourd scoop next to her and help Meng Po scoop the soup together, and I went back and forth with Meng Po, saying: "Actually, Meng Po, I still learn from you this little bit of strength now, I grew up listening to the story of you crying down the Great Wall for your husband, and my current dedication is too far from what you were back then." You know, my wife and I have been about ten years, basically our hardest ten years, it can be said that from having nothing, to having a family, a house, a car, and children, all of this has just been straightened out and can live a little more comfortably, and my wife has not had time to enjoy the fruits of her efforts, she ......."
"Don't tell me this, here and there. I repeat, I don't know where your wife is, don't come to me in the future. ”
Meng Po seemed to be really angry, picked up a porcelain bowl and scooped a bowl of soup from the vat, walked to the bridge at the door, handed it to the person who came over, and watched the person who was about to be reincarnated reluctantly take Meng Po soup, while whispering: "A lifetime of love and hatred, the ups and downs of a lifetime of gains and losses will be forgotten with this bowl of soup." Those who are concerned in this life, those who hate in this life, are like strangers in the next life, and they don't know each other......"
It looks like a wife coaxed her daughter to drink Chinese medicine when she was a child: obediently, drink it quickly, and if you get sick after drinking, you can play with your children!
When I wanted to continue to talk to Meng Po, Meng Po pleaded not so much as an order: "Please stay away from me!"
Meng Po can also be regarded as a soul with identity, and she is in charge of the afterlife of these souls to a certain extent, and she would ask us to leave her in such a tone, Xiaomeng and I were a little dazed for a while.
"Granny Meng, then let's go first!" Xiao Meng glanced at me, took my hand and walked back quickly.
I was even more confused, and I didn't want to give up so hastily. Xiaomeng gave me a look and whispered, "Did you see it, Granny Meng is in tears, it is said that she will not shed tears." ”
"Did it arouse her mind?"
Xiaomeng shook her head slowly, indicating that she didn't know.
Although there is still nothing to gain from going down this time, there is still no news of his wife, on the way back, the more I think about it, the more I feel that Meng Po's behavior is a little abnormal, if she really doesn't know anything, she doesn't need to be so cold to us, and she looks so irritable when she sees us.
I think, next time I go down, I'll have to find Meng Po!
