Verse 267: Ah Lian

"How can I have such a good life!" The little girl who giggled immediately fell silent and sighed when she heard Mu Sheng's question.

"My name is Ah Lian, but I'm just an ordinary woman. Ah Lian said gloomily.

"My surname is Mu Youde, I just came here today, it's a pleasure to meet you. Mu Sheng said to Ah Lian with a smile.

"Are you mortal too?" asked Ah Lian, puzzled.

Mu Sheng nodded, and Ah Lian then asked, "Have you just arrived in Beiguo Village......?" At your age, if you were a mortal, wouldn't you have sent it a long time ago?"

Mu Sheng explained: "I also have a younger brother who is also a mortal, because he is too young to live independently, so he needs to come with me, so I have to come to Beiguo Village later. ”

"Oh, I see! Looks like your family is pretty good to you. Ah Lian nodded.

Mu Sheng smiled and couldn't say anything, and asked, "What's the matter with that crazy woman?"

"She's weird, it's pitiful. Ah Lian lifted the basket on her back and said.

"Do you want me to help you carry it?" Mu Sheng saw that the basket on Ah Lian's back was full of dry firewood and other things, and it was a little difficult to carry it.

"No, I'm used to it. Ah Lian raised her sleeves to wipe her sweat, and then said: "Grandma's surname is Huang, I heard my parents say that when I was young, Grandma was also one of the most beautiful women in our village, and later it was said that she got along with a monk who came to this village, and she didn't listen to her parents' advice and insisted on being with him, but how could a monk marry a mortal woman as his wife?"

Ah Lian said here and sighed: "At most, it is difficult to be a concubine, Grandma was with him and gave birth to three sons and a daughter for him, but fortunately, the children are not extraordinary, and the monks are very happy to take them out of the village to raise." I didn't think that my grandmother suddenly fell ill one year. I had already given birth to three children and my body was out of shape, this illness was even more haggard, completely lost her former demeanor, the monk began to use elixir treatment, and then saw that it was always not good, so he simply left and abandoned her in the village, Grandma Huang has been in the village for more than 30 years, and has become a crazy mother-in-law. ”

Mu Sheng asked, "Didn't Grandma Huang's children come to her?"

Ah Lian said angrily: "Why haven't you come to look for it, when Grandma got married, she came to the village to celebrate." But the daughter-in-law later learned that she was taken to the mortal village, and the mother-in-law was a mortal, and soon divorced. After that, none of the children came. Grandma Huang still doesn't know if she has grandchildren. But after this son came once, he thought Grandma crazy. ”

"Oh! Mu Sheng asked.

"Grandma was abandoned by the monks after a serious illness, and she became a little delirious, and a son was happy, thinking that there was a hope, at least there were children who cared about him, which in the end was just an empty joy, you say, how can you not be crazy?" Ah Lian sighed and said: "My mother said, this is the fate of our mortal women in Beiguo Village!"

Mu Sheng was silent for a while after hearing this, and then said for a long time: "Didn't Grandma think about leaving this village when she was young?"

Ah Lian raised her head, looked into the distance with her two eyes, and said faintly: "Who doesn't want to leave this ghost place, but what can we do? ”

"You see it's snowing, and the earth is dressed in white, and it's so beautiful. Ah Lian seemed unwilling to dwell on this issue any longer, and diverted the topic and pointed to the mountains and forests in the distance.

While the two were talking, the sky was unconsciously snowing, and at this moment it had been thinly spread on the ground, and the mountains and forests in the distance were also covered with a layer of white snow.

Mu Sheng was speechless, he only felt that his heart was extremely heavy, the life in Beiguo Village was much more difficult than that of himself in Qinghe Town, Shenzhou.

Ah Lian pointed to the courtyard of an adobe house in the mountains and said: "I'm going home, I see you don't go around when it's snowing, go back quickly, this mountain is high and the road is slippery, you are not familiar with the terrain, be careful of falling." ”

Mu Sheng smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm used to working at home, and I'm not so squeamish." ”

"Ah Lian, you're back, hurry up and go home, the whole family is waiting for the firewood you brought back!" As he was talking, Mu Sheng heard a female voice shouting to Ah Lian.

Following the prestige, I saw a woman standing outside the adobe house, coarse cloth clothes, an apron around her waist, and a child on her back, the child was about one or two years old, her face was red from the cold, the woman's face was haggard, her forehead lines were very heavy, her face was cracked and red because she did not rub antifreeze oil, and Mu Sheng looked like an old middle-aged woman.

"It's coming. Ah Lian opened her throat and responded.

"Your mother?" asked Mu Shengshun.

Ah Lian looked at Mu Sheng gloomily: "No, that's my sister, and she is only twenty years old this year." When he said this, there was a bit of unwillingness and pity in his eyes.

"Ah!?" Mu Sheng didn't expect that the woman in front of him was only twenty years old, this flower-like age, shouldn't it be the most gorgeous time to bloom?

Mu Sheng wanted to ask something more, but obviously Ah Lian didn't want to say anything anymore, waved goodbye to Mu Sheng, and quickly walked up the path to his adobe house. Soon he entered the house with his sister who was waiting outside the hospital.

After chatting with Ah Lian, Mu Sheng's mood became very heavy, and he didn't have the heart to continue to wander outside, so he lowered his head and thought silently and went back to the room.

After turning around like this, it was already dark, Mu Sheng pushed the door into the courtyard, and saw Yutaixin squatting in front of the house, looking at himself in a stunned manner with his hands and knees.

"Why is it squatting outside alone, it's dark, why don't you light the lamp?" Mu Sheng asked.

"It's boring to be alone in the house, it's snowing and it's bright outside, so I'm thinking I'm here waiting for you to come back. He stood up from the ground as he spoke.

"Are you hungry, do you want to eat something?" asked Mu Sheng.

Tan Taixin nodded, his two big eyes open, and he looked at Mu Sheng with a blank look.

Mu Sheng took the storage bag in his hand, and was about to rummage through it to see if there was anything to eat that could be given to Taixin, when he suddenly remembered that he was now in a state of no spiritual power, so he had to smile awkwardly: "I'm sorry, you look at my memory, I can't get you food." Only tomorrow I will come to the village and buy it for you. ”

When Tan Taixin heard Mu Sheng say this, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he said: "It's okay, it's okay, isn't it just that I haven't eaten a meal?"
