Chapter 192: Tassels
Looking at the time, it was not yet four o'clock in the morning, and the whole village was dark at this time, and everyone was asleep.
The night in the countryside is always much colder than the night in the city, and the night breeze is very cold, so Wang Yingying wore a relatively thin windbreaker, feeling a little cold in the cold wind, and stretched out her arms to hug herself.
Taking off her coat and covering her body, Wang Yingying had not slept since this morning, and drove for more than three hours to accompany him to this remote rural area, which still did not make any complaints.
Reaching out and touching her head, holding her into his arms, Shangguan Ruixin sighed softly, it seems that they have to wait until dawn before they can act, after all, now that the light is blind, there is no news at all.
"We're resting here now, and we'll wait until dawn to get out for news. Shangguan Ruixin touched her head, took her hand and walked into the house, which made them feel strange that the door was not locked, which means that Shangguan's mother may have been in a hurry when she left, so she only had time to lock the door outside the courtyard.
However, there is another situation, that is, when she left, she did not think that she could not come back, and only locked the outside door, and did not care about the inside door.
After entering the door, the two did not turn on the lights, Shangguan Ruixin turned on the flashlight to irradiate the situation inside, and found that the house was cleaned very clean, and it was certain that someone lived here, but whether the person who lived in it was his mother or not was another question.
Looking at this familiar and unfamiliar place, Shangguan Ruixin had a lot of flavors in his heart, and he never came back when he finally moved out of here with his mother, he originally thought that he had forgotten about this place after all, but now standing in this place, he realized that many things could not be forgotten at all, but were buried deep in memory.
The things in front of me evoked scenes in the memory, the layout of the home was so familiar, there was a piece of clothing placed on the old sofa, Shangguan Ruixin felt a little familiar, picked it up and looked at it, and immediately remembered that this was his father's clothes.
But he clearly remembered that when his father died, his mother had already lost everything related to him, even the photos were burned, let alone clothes.
But this is indeed his father's clothes, Shangguan Ruixin remembers very clearly, this is what his father wore when he left home that day, picked him up, and kissed him on the forehead.
"Wait for Abba to come back. ”
These were the last words his father said to him, but after that day he never returned, and soon after his mother moved out of the place with him.
I thought that my mother had sold the house here, but I didn't expect it to be kept until now, and the things inside are still so neatly placed.
Shangguan Ruixin finally felt that something was wrong, he was still young before, and he didn't have the heart to think about what was wrong, or if something was abnormal, he never suspected his father's death.
But now that I think about it, since my father died, my mother began to move with him, and they changed places one after another, and my mother never let him see anything about my father, and he was afraid that his mother would be sad, so he never took the initiative to mention it.
But looking back now, it seems that it was something he deliberately did if he didn't want him to forget his father's existence.
Shangguan Ruixin put down the dress, sat on the sofa and thought about it, if he didn't guess wrong, this dress belonged to his father's relics, and it was the reason why his mother came back.
opened the room where he used to sleep, and to Shangguan Ruixin's surprise, his room was also cleaned up very cleanly, and there was no one living in it for more than ten years.
Shangguan Ruixin took out the quilt and spread it on the bed, there was no hot water at home, and because of the cold weather, Shangguan Ruixin and Wang Yingying washed their faces and curled up on the same bed.
Wang Yingying nestled in his arms, but the two of them did not feel sleepy, Shangguan Ruixin always felt a sense of unease, as if something was about to happen.
"Hao, are you really sure that your house has not been inhabited for more than ten years, but I don't look like it. Wang Yingying said softly.
Shangguan Ruixin's face changed in secret, it really doesn't look like no one has lived in it for more than ten years, although there are weeds outside, but those grasses definitely don't look like they have grown for more than ten years, could it be that after he went to work in Dongshi, did his mother come back?
turned over, pulled the quilt up a little, and tightly covered the woman next to her, Shangguan Ruixin left a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Hurry up and go to bed, you have to wake up early tomorrow, maybe there will be no time to rest tomorrow. ”
"Hmm. Wang Yingying found a comfortable position and stopped making a sound.
In the relationship between the body, Shangguan Ruixin felt that his whole head was groggy, and he fell asleep after a while.
A rooster crow in the early morning woke him up from his dream, got out of bed, opened the window and looked out, the sky was gray and not yet bright, but he vaguely heard someone talking outside the door.
Shangguan Ruixin immediately cheered up 12 points of spirit and pulled Wang Yingying up from the bed, Wang Yingying's hazy sleepy eyes After seeing his cautious appearance, the whole person was shocked and immediately woke up.
"Shh
Shangguan Ruixin made a quiet gesture to her, and the two hurriedly packed up the sheets, put on their clothes, and tiptoed into the courtyard to listen, but found that the conversation outside the courtyard around them was very soft, but they heard it very clearly in the quiet morning.
"Are you sure the old woman left her things in the house?" said one of them.
There was a sound of the lock shaking at the door, "Whether we are at home or not, we have to look for it first, that old woman is not easy to do under the protection of the villagers now, but the things must be in hand, otherwise the two of us don't have to go back." ”
"Then hurry up and do it before dawn. Another voice continued.
Shangguan Ruixin and Wang Yingying glanced at each other, and they both saw surprise from each other's expressions, seeing that the lock in the courtyard would not last long, if it was discovered, it would inevitably be a vicious battle, no matter who the other party was, now is not the best time to fight.
What to do?
Wang Yingying's lips moved, and Shangguan Ruixin could understand her lips.
Immediately he remembered something, and pulled Wang Yingying to the side of the courtyard, Wang Yingying, but there was a tall tree at the back of the courtyard, the branches and leaves on the tree were luxuriant, and the leaves were swaying slightly in the wind.
"I'll lift you up, and they'll not find us in the trees. Shangguan Ruixin said.
Regardless of Wang Yingying's disagreement, then squatted down, Wang Yingying did not hesitate, stepped on his back and climbed up the tree, and after waiting for the tree, Wang Yingying knew that Shangguan Ruixinzhi chose to hide in the tree for no reason, from this tree you can see the window of the house.
As soon as they went up the tree, the door in the courtyard was pushed open, and the sound was unusually loud in the silent night, but Shangguan Ruixin and their house were at the head of the village, and no one seemed to find out.
Two men, one tall and one short, crept in, holding two flashlights in their hands, shining east and west, and walked to the door at once.
"Isn't it a little strange why this door is not closed?" said the tall man strangely.
The short man pushed the door open, and said indifferently, "Maybe it may be that the woman was in too much hurry when she left, and she didn't have time to lock it, the doors in the courtyard are locked from the outside, and no one can live tomorrow, hurry in to find something, if it is dawn and someone finds out, it will not be good." ”
The two of them pushed the door in and rummaged through the cabinets in the house, the sky was not yet bright, and Shangguan Ruixin and they didn't see if the other party had found anything.
However, it can be seen from the conversation between the two people that the woman they are talking about is Shangguan's mother, that is to say, Shangguan Ruixin's mother is still safe, and the other party has not yet got what she wants.
However, from now on, Shangguan Ruixin can already be sure that there is really something in his mother's hands that has attracted some people, and as for whether these people have anything to do with his father's affairs, this is not yet certain.
"What should we do now?" Wang Yingying also saw that things were not simple, and said with some hesitation.
What to do?
Shangguan Ruixin showed a sneer on his face, since he entered their house, then don't think about going out safely, no matter what you find, don't think about taking it away.
"Let's go out first and wait for them outside. Shangguan Ruixin said indifferently.
The two of them climbed out of the hole they had come in last night, and now they were especially glad that they hadn't parked the car directly outside last night, otherwise, the other party would have found them.
Pulling out a wooden stick from the side and stepping on it with his foot, he found that it was quite tough, and Shangguan Ruixin showed a cruel smile on his face.
After lowering his head and saying a few words to Wang Yingying, the two of them continued to hide in the dark, waiting for the arrival of their prey.
After rummaging around the house, the two men found that there was nothing they wanted, and went out depressed.
"I'll tell you that something important can't be kept at home, so what now, do you want to find an opportunity to hijack a woman?" said the tall man.
The short man thought for a moment and did not answer.
The two men skillfully closed the door in the courtyard, and then locked the lock.
"We have to think about this matter in the long run, as long as we can't be caught by the villagers, otherwise if they call the police, we won't be able to eat and walk around. The short man thought for a moment and replied.
"But—" Before the tall man could speak, he was hit with a stick in the back, and the whole person immediately fell.
"But what, huh, what's wrong with you?" the short man noticed that something was wrong, and wanted to run, but before he could start running, something had already tripped him under his feet, and the whole man was picked up on the ground.
