！

Ke Xing cleaned the three large tiled houses of the old house early in the morning, and the bedding was dismantled, washed, dried and installed in advance, and two pots of freshly budding camellia were specially moved from home to put in the hall and door, and then sat in the main house with satisfaction, watching TV while waiting for her mother, younger brother and little daughter to come back.

"Apricot, are you mistaken, I didn't pick up anyone at the station at the entrance of the village."

Ke Xing's husband, Shen Dakuan, hurriedly walked into the courtyard and shouted into the main house that was open to the sky.

His wife asked him to pick up his mother-in-law and brother-in-law at the station, but he ran away empty, and his phone was broken halfway through, so he had to go home to see if he remembered the wrong time.

"Can't be wrong! Or I'll call again. ”

Ke Xing asked her mother about when she would be able to get home, and her mother vaguely said that she might arrive at three or four o'clock in the afternoon. At that time, there happened to be a long-distance bus from the county seat.

Ke Xing naturally thought that her mother would take a long-distance bus home.

Mrs. Ke's old man's mobile phone rang twice, and at this time she had already looked at the big banyan tree at the intersection of the village. It is estimated that her daughter will ask her when she will be home, and she decides to surprise her daughter and son-in-law. Picked up the phone, a few words, meaning that I hung up the phone on the way to ask my daughter not to worry.

"Mom, why didn't you tell me my sister was home?"

"I'd love to!"

Old Lady Ke tapped her lips at her son, and a childlike naughty smile appeared on her face. Leaning on the car window and looking at the green vegetable fields on both sides of the village road, I told Doudou and Niuniu that white radishes and carrots were planted in the fields......

"Why are there so many turnips!"

Niuniu huddled beside her grandmother and stared curiously at the greens in the field.

"Because it's winter, you can only grow radishes in the field in winter......

Mrs. Ke patted her granddaughter's head with a smile, and turned her face to look at Doudou, who was still staring at the big dinosaur doll she was holding in her hand as she did when she set off.

He Zhi held the steering wheel, stared at the winding village road in front of her, and sweated in her palms.

Ke Yang remembered the news broadcast on the radio when he left Suicheng, a female corpse was found at the foot of the Suicheng Bridge, the deceased was about 29 years old, about 1.68 meters tall, wearing brand-name clothes, and murder was ruled out by the criminal police after preliminary interrogation......

Ke Yang suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, but he didn't dare to think about that woman.

Mrs. Ke pushed Ke Yang in the front row with her knee and motioned for Ke Yang to look at Doudou. If they get home after a while, the seven aunts and eight aunts see that they bring back a problem child, I don't know what gossip will come out.

"Doudou, we'll be to my uncle's hometown soon. Will Uncle take you to the woods to catch birds in a while? ”

Ke Yang drove away the uneasy thoughts in his mind, turned to Doudou and said with a smile.

"Don't talk about catching birds, Doudou is a child who loves animals and will not harm small animals. Take her to the field and pluck turnips. Doudou must like to pluck turnips, right? ”

He Zhi didn't dare to look back at Doudou, the village road was narrow, and there were more houses after entering the village, Ke Yang's house was in the innermost part of the village, and she was worried about whether the silver Daben could drive in.

At this time, Ke Yang's phone rang, and Xiao Nan said that Wu Tongzhou had appealed, and he was afraid that he would have to be sentenced again in the second instance.

"He still appeals?!"

Wu Tongzhou was given a light sentence He Zhi was already indignant in his heart, and now he heard that Wu Tongzhou still felt wronged and appealed, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement, if it wasn't for Ke Yang's quick hand to hit the steering wheel, he would definitely crash into the big tree in front of the yard.

"It's his right to appeal."

Ke Yang put down his phone, his expression looked a little unnatural, and said:

"Don't you think it's strange that Wu Tongzhou didn't hire a lawyer in the first instance, and now he has filed an appeal, and the board of directors of his father's company has hired a team of lawyers for him, and he seems to have planned everything a long time ago."

"That's weird!"

He Zhi found that Ke Yang's expression was wrong, but it was inconvenient to discuss on the way, Ke Yang stopped talking, and she fell silent.

"A big Mercedes-Benz has entered the village!"

I don't know whose child saw He Zhi's car in the yard and immediately shouted excitedly. Suddenly many children ran out of the surrounding houses.

They were all mischievous half-grown boys and fresh little girls, running behind He Zhi's car and shouting, as if they were calling the police to the whole village.

"Good fellow! Let's catch up with the devil and enter the village. ”

Without waiting for Ke Yang to open the window to let the children not run around the car and suddenly be in danger, Mrs. Ke opened the window first and shouted to the children:

"Let's go home and play first, and then come to Grandma Ke's house to play in the evening, and Grandma Ke will bring you something delicious."

"Grandma Ke!"

"Wow, what a grandmother."

"Niu Niu! Niu Niu is back too......"

Mrs. Ke stretched out her hand and shook it, but the children refused to leave one by one when they listened to her, and ran with the silver until they reached the door of the Ke family's old mansion.

Hearing the noise of the children from a distance, Ke Xing thought that something big had happened in the village and asked her husband to go out to have a look.

Seeing a silver Daben stop at the gate of the courtyard, and the mother-in-law walked out of the car, Liu Dakuan was so shocked that he opened his mouth and forgot to call his daughter-in-law to come out and see.

While her son was taking the luggage, Mrs. Ke opened the bag and grabbed a handful of fruits in small packages of Suicheng's specialties and distributed them to the children. The children refused to leave when they got the delicious food, and found that Ke Yang's eyes were staring at him with a serious face, and they suddenly scattered like birds and beasts.

In the evening, the news that Ke Yang had returned with his new daughter-in-law in a Mercedes-Benz spread throughout the village. At dinnertime, all the seven aunts and eight aunts who lived in neighboring villages and counties came.

Thinking of the desertion of the family when his father died, Ke Yang deeply understood the ancient and modern famous sentences at this moment:

"The poor are on the streets, no one asks, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and the last few sentences are unbelievable, but look at the wine in the feast, and persuade the rich first with a cup."

The relatives who came brought their own food and drinks, and the dinner table, which originally only had five dishes and one soup, quickly became unstable, and another table was opened for the women to sit separately. Of course, Mrs. Ke sat at the main table like a moon held by the stars.

After a few glasses of wine, Mrs. Ke talked more.

The son is excellent, and he married an even better wife, and now there is nothing wrong with returning home in fine clothes and being looked down upon by relatives. There are always ups and downs in fate, and it's time for her to raise her eyebrows.

Facing her daughter's in-laws and policemen's wine, Mrs. Ke put down her wine glass.

"Why do you kiss my mother, don't you think my family's wine is bad?"

felt that everyone was staring at him, and Liu Laohan was worried that Mrs. Ke really didn't give him face and refused to drink with him.

Because his son is a single seedling, Liu Laohan has been looking forward to his daughter-in-law giving birth to a grandson. As a result, Ke Xing gave birth to three daughters in a row, and he felt that he couldn't raise his head in the village, and he felt that if he broke the incense of the Liu family, he would be sorry for his ancestors.

He discussed with his wife to ask his son to persuade his daughter-in-law to send his little daughter Niuniu away, and if he made persistent efforts, he might be able to have a grandson. The daughter-in-law gave Niuniu to her mother's family to raise, but Liu Laohan pretended not to know. Today, seeing that his little granddaughter is lively and cute, and she is raised so well by her mother, he is grateful and indescribable, and he wants to toast Mrs. Ke with a glass of wine, which can be regarded as a gesture of affection.

"It's because your wine is so good, I don't dare to drink it!"

I won't give face to my father-in-law today!

Mrs. Ke picked up the wine glass and turned around to clink glasses with Ke Yang's aunt, and said congratulations on her marriage to her daughter-in-law while drinking.

Ke Yang's aunt looked at He Zhi and looked at him more and more, the more envious and jealous she became, and she couldn't stop asking Mrs. Ke when she would hold another wedding for Ke Yang in the village.

"The exchange of favors also allows everyone to return the favors. Young people look down on the turtles in the countryside, and the old sister shouldn't dislike our poor relatives of the turtles! ”

Everyone followed suit. Ke Yang took the opportunity to sneak out of the door and make a mobile phone call in the yard.

The ladies all stretched their necks and scrambled to ask Mrs. Ke how many apartments Ke Yang had bought in the city, could she let her children go over and arrange a job, and in the future, she didn't want to find a good daughter-in-law like He Zhi, as long as she could marry a girl in the city......

"Well...... That ......"

Mrs. Ke blushed and began to pretend to be drunk, feeling that this pose had become difficult to ride.

He Zhi was surrounded by the women's pile in a calm water, and after eating a few dishes, she politely left the table.

Doudou fell asleep in bed after entering the house. More than two hours have passed, and He Zhi is worried that Doudou will be hungry, so she wants to go over and take a look before taking the food in.

It was a little dark in the house, and He Zhi didn't touch the switch of the light by the door, and couldn't find where to turn on the light for a while. I had no choice but to walk towards the shadowy bed.

Suddenly she saw a dark figure sitting next to the bed, and she was so frightened that she almost screamed. She hurriedly covered her mouth and tentatively shouted "Doudou".

The man sitting on the edge of the bed did not move. I could still vaguely see that the black shadow sitting on the edge of the bed was Doudou, and He Zhi reached out and put it on the black shadow's shoulder.

"Doudou, when did you get up?"

The hand on the black shadow's shoulder felt a coldness, as if it was on an ice cave, and He Zhi reflexively retracted his hand. At this moment, the black shadow lowered its head and raised it.

In the darkness, the face raised by the black shadow was white and miserable, a pair of closed eyes suddenly widened, and two gloomy gazes shot at He Zhi, who was so frightened that she couldn't help but scream "ah" anymore.

She wanted to run out, but her whole body seemed to be stuck with nails and couldn't move, and she had to face the two gloomy stares staring at her, so she could only close her eyes tightly, trying to exorcise the demons in the darkness.

Hearing the screams coming from the bedroom, Ke Yang rushed in from the courtyard and turned on the lights in the center of the room.

"What happened?"

Seeing He Zhi standing beside the bed, looking frightened, Ke Yang hurriedly stepped forward and hugged He Zhi.

"I didn't ...... Maybe I'm scared of myself. ”

Under the light, He Zhi calmed down and turned her head to look at the bed, where Doudou was lying on her back, sleeping soundly with a dinosaur doll in her hand.

"Nothing."

Seeing that relatives were pouring in, He Zhi felt a little embarrassed. The first time he came to the door, he caused chaos for Ke Yang's mother and son.

"He Zhi, did you see something just now?"

Ke Xinghu looked at He Zhi suspiciously, and then asked.

He Zhi was silent. She did see it, but what was she going to say. If she says that she sees a terrible face and eyes, others don't think that she, a young lady from the city, likes to make a fuss and attract attention.

"Definitely saw something unclean."

Ke Yang's second aunt added affirmatively:

"Your old house has been empty for more than a year, even if Ke Xing comes to clean it occasionally, maybe some lonely ghost will be used as a comfortable nest for ......."

"Don't talk nonsense! What age is it still engaged in superstition. ”

Ke Yang's second uncle pulled his daughter-in-law and didn't want to create any more panic. The other women who wanted to interject did not dare to speak again, and everyone dispersed immediately, and then picked up the wine glass, which was already less interested just now, and after a while, they all said goodbye to Mrs. Ke.

"In the next few days, I will take my daughter-in-law to your house to recognize the door, and prepare some tea when the time comes."

Everyone knows the meaning of Mrs. Ke's words, and there are some things that cannot be done in front of everyone. Etiquette is light and courteous, and it is also necessary to be close and distant.

Mrs. Ke sent her relatives to He Zhi's house.

He Zhi and Ke Yang were sitting on the edge of the bed and talking, when they saw Mrs. Ke coming in, both of them stood up.

"I got drunk and went back to the house to rest. You two go to bed early, too. Your sister and your brother-in-law sleep in that room, and you two will sleep in this room. There is exactly a big bed here. ”

Mrs. Ke is not confused, her son sleeps alone in He Zhi's villa, and now that she is home, her son should also get up and take the initiative to sleep with He Zhi. You can't always be passive in front of women, most women still like men who are a bit domineering.

After Mrs. Ke finished speaking, she went to the hall to talk to her daughter and son-in-law, so that they didn't have to clean up anymore and rest early.

"Are you feeling better now?"

Ke Yang held He Zhi's hand, Ke Zhi didn't move, raised his eyes and looked at the sleeping Doudou. Her mood was not completely calm, and the picture she had just seen was too weird. She knew it wasn't a hallucination. The bone-chilling coldness of her tentacles was absolutely real, and until now her palms hadn't warmed up.

"Do you believe in souls?"

"I believe there is cause and effect."

Ke Yang held He Zhi's cold hand with both hands, and gradually felt the warmth of He Zhi's hand.

"Doudou slept too long......"

After the fear, He Zhi realized that Doudou was abnormal.

She reached out and tried it under Doudou's nose, Doudou's breathing was even, his face was ruddy, and his red lips were like rouge. I touched Doudou's forehead again, and his body temperature was normal, not like he was in a fever coma.

He Zhi was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but Ke Yang suddenly hugged Doudou.

"What are you doing?"

"Something is wrong with Doudou!"

Ke Yang held Doudou head down in his hand and asked He Zhi to knock Doudou's back. Although He Zhi didn't know why Ke Yang did this, she was now used to listening to Ke Yang's command, and reached out to make an empty fist and knocked on Doudou's back.

Beanie made a roaring train in his throat, squirted out a mouthful of fishy liquid, and then burst into tears.

"Doudou doesn't cry, Doudou doesn't cry......"

He Zhi took Doudou and stroked her back and comforted.

"Doudou is fine now. You can take a shower in the bathroom, I'll boil some wormwood water to soak your feet, you don't have to think about anything now. I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

Ke Yang said and went out.

Listening to Ke Yang's footsteps, He Zhi's heart became nervous again, and she hugged Doudou to catch up with Ke Yang. Only by Ke Yang's side can she feel at ease.

The firewood in the stove crackled, and the light of the fire made Ke Yang's face red. He Zhi packed up the rice bowl that Doudou had eaten, turned to look at Ke Yang, and the cold feeling was finally gone.
