After walking for about an hour, they came to a fenced yard, the crooked fence door was hidden, the two glanced at each other, Ouyang Jing took the lead in pushing the door open, and before the two walked in, there was a crazy dog barking inside, and following the sound, I saw a yellow lean dog howling at the two under the eaves.

Ouyang Jing screamed and threw herself into Yi Xuan's arms for protection, Yi Xuan smiled and patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, "It's just a dog, it's okay if you stand still." ”

"Who?" asked a trembling old voice in the room, and the yellow dog heard the voice and glanced back at the room, wagging his tail, turned his head to the two and continued to bark loudly, as if to warn the two: Don't go forward, go forward, and I'm welcome.

"Ah Huang. The old man's voice was a little doting reproach.

When the yellow dog heard this, he no longer howled, but still watched the two men who walked into the yard vigilantly.

Yixuan looked at the house in front of him, the yard was muddy, and there were a few chickens strolling on the ground, some of them stretched their heads from time to time and "clucked" twice, and some walked a few steps on the ground and pecked twice on the ground with their sharp beaks, which was leisurely and enviable.

The exterior walls of the house in front of him were made of mud and stones, the roof was covered with black tiles, and under the eaves hung dried corn and red peppers, etc., and the crooked wooden door was open.

After waiting for a while, an old woman groped her way out of the room and asked, "Who?"

The yellow dog wagged his tail and walked to the old woman's feet, barked softly, and then walked to a bench that was too dark and bright to see the color under the eaves, and watched intently as the old woman held the wall with both hands and groped across the high threshold, and then groped and tentatively sat on the stool, the ground was uneven and the stool was unstable on all fours, and the old woman moved the stool a few places to sit down steadily, and then did not forget to touch the yellow dog's head gratefully.

Yixuan's eyes were filled with mist, and she opened her mouth and shouted: "Grandma, I'm ......"

"Huanhuan, is that you? You're back. The old woman suddenly stood up excitedly and walked over to Yixuan, who made a sound, forgetting that she was sitting under the eaves, and there was a bump between the eaves and the courtyard dam, and if she stepped on the air, she was about to fall.

Yixuan and Ouyang Jing stepped forward to help her at the same time, in the end, Ouyang Jing moved faster, and supported her body when the old grandmother fell to the ground, and then Yixuan also held her arm, choked and shouted again: "Grandma." ”

Ignoring Ouyang Jing's puzzled eyes and the look of wanting to speak.

The old grandmother trembled, stretched out her hands that were cracked and rough like the bark of an old tree, and gently stroked Yixuan's head, face, and body, and muddy tears flowed from her empty and dull eyes.

"Huanhuan, where have you been in the past two years? Grandma worries about you every day, and her eyes are blind from crying. ”

"I ...... , I went on a business trip abroad, and I was in a hurry, and I didn't have time to tell you. Yixuan decided to recognize Qu Huan's grandmother in a moment, and in a hurry she came up with this flawed reason.

Fortunately, the grandmother doesn't understand the outside world, and she has always said and believed in her granddaughter Qu Huan.

helped grandma into the house, and sat down at the square table in the middle of the house, which also couldn't see the primary color, there was no window, only the light coming in from the door, so the light in the room was dim, thinking that grandma was blind, Yixuan also knew it.

The yellow dog saw that his grandmother was so affectionate to the two, so he sensibly went out of the yard to wander around, and was bored to chase the chickens and dig up the soil.

Yixuan accompanied her grandmother to cry and laugh, and the two often talked about the scene of parting for two years, of course, Yixuan's parting details all relied on her quick and free imagination, fortunately, Grandma Qu had never walked out of the village in her life, and she was easy to coax.

Ouyang Jing had nothing to do, and walked around the house by herself.

Ouyang Jing looked around, probably clear the structure of the room, behind this hall is the kitchen and the room where the miscellaneous items are piled up, there is a bedroom on the left and right sides of the hall, all the furnishings in the room are very simple, the furniture is the kind of rough furniture that has been used for many years, but all the items are neat and clean.

Ouyang Jing walked into a bedroom, only to find that there were a few rare books in this room on an old long desk, and the drawers of the desk were all in the kind of situation that could not be pushed back after being opened. There was a notebook with a plastic cover in the drawer, and she flipped through it, and it was full of study notes, some of which looked like meeting minutes, and when she looked at the worn paper, she knew that these records must have been a long time ago.

Ouyang Jing was about to close the book and go out, but saw the corner of the fold under the notebook, and subconsciously opened the fold of the scroll, on which were scribbled a few big words: They were going to kill her??? a few question marks in the back pierced the paper because of too much force, and then a big × crossed out this sentence, and there were two words under this sentence that were crossed out one by one, and they couldn't be seen clearly at all.

Ouyang Jing looked at the few fragments of handwriting in shock, and a kind of nervousness and uneasiness rose in his heart to get a glimpse of the truth of the conspiracy.

I took a few deep breaths and tried to calm my emotions.

She carefully tore the piece of paper off the notebook, carefully identified the two crossed out words against the window with plastic sheeting, and finally confirmed that the two crossed out words were: Shu Yue.

Regarding Yi Xuan's past, from Yi Xuan's vague and flickering words, she only knew that she had nothing after she was disfigured in a car accident, and the rest she just had some guesses, the only thing she clearly knew was that Shu Yixuan's former name was Shu Yue, and at this time, she saw Shu Yue's name in a completely unfamiliar environment from a book left by a strange girl she had never met, and she was really frightened.

From the information provided by Yi Xuan when she asked her to inquire about Qu Huan, it can be seen that Yi Xuan really doesn't know this person named Qu Huan, but now she saw Shu Yue's name at the house of Qu Huan's grandmother who had just met, how could Ouyang Jing not be shocked?

And just now Yixuan did not hesitate to admit that she was Qu Huan's business in front of Grandma Qu, which made her believe that this Qu Huan and Yixuan had some inextricable relationship, but these things that Yixuan didn't want her to know, so she restrained her curiosity and didn't want to know.

Put away too many doubts in her heart, and when she walked to the hall, she already looked as usual.

At this time, Yixuan was persuading her grandmother to move in with her, but her grandmother firmly disagreed, saying that she was used to being free in the countryside and was not used to living in the city.

Yixuan was silent and no longer persuaded.

She knew that for an elderly person like Grandma Qu, the kind of neighborhood relationship in the modern city that lived next to each other for more than ten years would make her unaccustomed, and the crowded cars and people when she went out made her feel even more uneasy, and she resisted that kind of life from the bottom of her bones.
