After breakfast, I walked out of the house and was greeted by a cool air. （.）

Stepping on the creaking and crunching snow under her feet, Xi Yao was in a relaxed mood.

All the way to the old lady's yard, just in time for the girls to clean up the breakfast table.

"How did you get here so early?" The old lady was holding the Buddha beads in her hand, ticking and ticking.

"Well, I heard that Dr. Qing from the Jishi Medical Center was going to come to the house to treat her mother at noon today, so the granddaughter thought about coming to greet the old lady earlier, and then went to her mother's yard to accompany her, in case there was anything to prepare, and those subordinates were not attentive."

The old lady nodded, "Your sister is gone, and now the responsibility of filial piety falls on you." White-haired people send black-haired people, what a cruel thing, your mother doesn't know the news yet, and she is the best one to live through. ”

"But I miss my sister all day long, but I can't see it, I always hide it like this, and I don't know how long I will 'keep my mother' in the dark."

"I know your love for your mother, and it's hard for you, I see all the things that their mother and daughter did to you before, and I can not take these things to heart, you girl is the most sensible."

Xi Yao replied with a smile, "My own family, it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps, as a junior, these are what granddaughters should do, and they also stay by the old lady's side for a long time, see what the old lady does, how to say, granddaughters learn by themselves." So, in the final analysis, it's still the old lady, and the teaching is good. ”

"You girl, not only sensible, but also the most coaxing person."

In the past few days, because of the sudden death of Gao Gaolan, the old lady has been sullen, even if she is not favored by Su Ri, how to say, she is also a granddaughter who has grown up watching since childhood.

If you are not cold, it will be gone, and strangers will be concerned, not to mention the old lady who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

Mother Liu has always seen it in her eyes, and she also knows the old lady's mood, but she can't tell the old lady's thoughts.

Now that the eldest lady can amuse the old lady with just a few words, Liu's mother's heart has calmed down a little. I can't help but admire the eldest lady, no matter how difficult she is to settle the situation of the old lady, as soon as the eldest lady comes, she will definitely not be able to convince the old lady in a few words.

"I'm also idle in the yard, it snowed so hard last night, it's really beautiful, I'll go with you, let's see your mother together."

"It's rare that the old lady is in such a good mood, and the granddaughter is better than obeying her fate."

Every time the old lady goes out of the yard, she has to follow a lot of girls and mothers, and today is no exception, because it has just snowed heavily, and the road is slippery on snowy days outside, so Mother Liu specially ordered to bring a few more girls to follow the old lady.

When I came to Wang's courtyard, a few girls in the outer courtyard were sprinkling and sweeping, and the path covered by snow had been swept out, which could accommodate three people to walk together. （.）

Seeing the old lady and the eldest lady coming from a distance, several girls stopped their movements at the same time, and stood aside respectfully.

"Madame, how is it this morning?" When passing by the two girls, Xi Yao asked.

The girls looked at each other, and then they all lowered their heads, "Old lady, eldest lady, since Mrs. was sick, the things in the house were only taken care of by Mother Zhao, and we little girls didn't dare to come forward, so ......"

"That's it, it's all useless, Ying'er, let's go in." The old lady was a little displeased, and was helped to go to the house first.

Xi Yao hurriedly followed, deliberately grabbed the old lady's arm, and walked side by side with her.

In fact, even she didn't realize that after getting along for such a long time, she had invisibly become an old lady as her own relative.

At present, although she deliberately found the old lady to be a witness to the cause of Wang's death, she was still afraid that the old lady would be frightened, so she subconsciously stayed by the old lady's side in case any accidents happened.

The door creaked open, and the room was cold, no warmer than outside.

Half of the 'door' was opened, the girl knocked twice, but she didn't hear any movement in the house, the old lady and Xi Yao glanced at each other, and at the same time stepped into the house.

In contrast to the snow-white sky reflected by the snow outside, the room was slightly dim and quiet, as if there was no one.

As soon as the grandfather and grandson entered the big 'door' of the outer room, they were so frightened by the scene in front of them that they 'gasped'.

The old lady reacted the fastest, and after taking two steps back, she said coldly to the girl who hadn't followed up at the 'door', "Give me all the exit!" ”

As soon as the girls followed the 'door', before they could react to what was happening, they heard the old lady's cold voice and hurriedly lowered their heads and retreated.

For a while, there were only two people left in the room, Xi Yao and the old lady.

Xi Yao held the old lady's arm tightly and looked nervously in the direction of the beam in front of her, "Mother Zhao, it's Mother Zhao." ”

There, at this moment, there was a man hanging high in the air, his head hanging in a rope, hanging in mid-air, motionless.

What the grandparents and grandchildren saw was the back of the man, even so, through the person's dress, they could still vaguely judge that this person was Zhao's mother.

The old lady nodded, and patted the back of Xi Yao's hand, "Child, did it scare you?" ”

Xi Yao shook her head, with a few tears in her eyes. It looked like he was clearly frightened.

"Follow Grandmother, go in and see your mother." As he spoke, he strode inside.

The place where Zhao's mother was hanging was on the beam of the inner room, not far from her was the location of the 'bed'.

On the 'bed', under the light purple 'color' satin bedding, Wang was lying calmly, her face was a little pale, and like Zhao's mother, she was motionless.

Walking to the interval between the inner room and the outer room, the old lady motioned for Xi Yao to stand still, entered the inner room by herself, walked to the edge of the 'bed' couch, and went directly to explore Wang's snort with her hands, and her index and middle fingers probed under Wang's nose for a long time, and finally sighed and withdrew her hand, "It's useless." ”

Xi Yao stood in the center of the inner and outer compartments, listened to the old lady's words, and sat down on the ground, "Mother? This...... How so? It's not that Dr. Qing will enter the house at noon today, and my mother was fine yesterday......"

"Third young master, the old lady has ordered, no one is allowed to go in."

"How dare you stop me? Don't want to die? ”

At the entrance of the 'door', the sound of Gao Wei'an arguing with the girls gradually became clear, Xi Yao woke up in her heart, and still sat on the ground and did not get up.

The old lady had already walked out, and was welcoming Gao Wei'an into the 'door', and as soon as she came in, she saw the stiff body of Zhao's mother on the roof of the shed, and the crab roe crisp in her hand fell to the bottom in an instant under the action of gravity.

"Old lady, what's going on?" Looking at the old lady in a daze, Gao Wei'an's expression was a little unnatural.
