Mother, I was so happy when I first saw you, you looked almost exactly like my sister, and your hands were so soft, not at all like the palms of a farmer who worked in the fields all year round. Your eyes always look at me with a gentle light, as if they can shine into my heart.

I am so attached to such tenderness, and after more than a hundred years, my miss for it deepens every day. So I told myself that if I could come out one day, I would find you and never be separated from you again.

My chance finally came, the boy knocked down the urn, and I took the opportunity to enter his body. He may be small, but he is your child, so I can enjoy your tenderness and affection in a grand manner. More importantly, with this shell, I can finally do what I've been looking forward to for more than a hundred years.

You must know what I want to do most, don't you? That's right, the person who imprisoned me for more than a hundred years and separated us from yin and yang, although he is dead, his children and grandchildren are still alive, because of the red jade soup, they live more freely than most people.

I, how can I let them go?

It's not hard to kill a person, but I don't want them to die too happily, and before I die, I let each of them taste the deepest fear in the world, especially Cui Yun.

This woman didn't have to die, because she was not from the Yan family. However, she did the most intolerable thing for me - she took possession of that man's heart and broke your heart.

Mother, it turns out that more than 100 years later, this world is also full of dirt. The hand that reached out to me that night, it slowly reached out to you and grabbed your neck.

Although you don't know anything about the two of them, you can feel the indifference and disdain for that man. I see you trying your best to please him, I see you reflect on yourself, I see you cry behind his back...... My heart is broken.

Of course I will hate you, the man I call my father, and the woman he dotes on, they are the thorns in my side, and I can't let go of them for a day if I don't pull them out.

So, on my birthday, I sneaked out, tricked Cui Yun into that room, and gouged out her eyes. Her distorted face before she died was not at all pretty, her eyes were gone, and the muscles on her face were so tense. By the way, I ripped off her neck, her nails fell off, and her clothes were covered in mud, so embarrassed that she was not even as good as a beggar.

Of course, the most surprising thing for me was that she actually had his flesh and blood, oh, that unlucky child, who was not even an adult when he died.

Speaking of this, Jia Yan took out a jade plaque from his bosom and stuffed it into Xiangzhen's hand, "Mother, this is our family's jade plaque, you gave it to me, but I almost lost it, and let that bad old man discover my secret," he laughed, "Fortunately, I started quickly, and I didn't give him a chance to tell my secret, I ...... Took his heart. ”

Xiangzhen pursed her lips and tried hard to suppress their trembling, but tears rolled disobediently from the corners of her eyes, down her neck and into her collar, soaking her chest cold.

Jia Yan turned his head, patted the back of Xiangzhen's hand, which was obviously trembling, and said softly, "Mother, don't be afraid, I will never treat you like this, you are a mother, a sister, and the person I have been waiting for for a hundred years, I will not harm you, let alone allow others to harm you." ”

He seemed a little sleepy, and after a long yawn, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and continued indistinctly, "There's another good news I forgot to tell you, that stinky man is also dead, I killed him, and now their family of three can be reunited below." ”

With that, he leaned his head on Xiangzhen's chest, closed his eyes gently, and in less than a moment, he actually breathed evenly and fell asleep. However, his thumb was pressed tightly on Xiangzhen's wrist to prevent her from escaping.

The carriage rolled on the gravel and began to jolt up and down again, and Jiayan's long eyelashes fluttered a few times, but the man still did not wake up.

Xiangzhen looked at Jiayan's pale little face, and suddenly began to pray in her heart that the car would run faster and harder, and it would be better to rush to the bottom of the cliff, so that their mother and son would be buried in those gravel and weeds, so that it would be a hundred.

Thinking like this, she suddenly felt a chill on her cheeks, and a string of tears slid down her slightly shrugging cheekbones to her lips, salty and astringent.

......

......

"Saido Village has arrived ......"

With the slightly tired voice of the coachman, the carriage shook back and forth twice, and came to a steady stop, Jiayan opened his eyes and sat up straight, "Mother, we are home." ”

***

Zhaitang Village is the same as Zhao Zimai saw in his dream, sitting in the north and facing south, built on a gentle slope, rising layer by layer, according to the situation. The streets and alleys are mostly paved with bluestone, gray stone, and purple stone slabs, and after a sudden rainstorm, the various colored stone slabs reflect a charming brilliance, as if inlaid with precious stones.

The dwelling is a water of four water to return to the hall layout, the first courtyard is often the main house, the courtyard is slightly open, the hall is more open, and the patio is connected inside and outside. The roof is paved with small green tiles and horse-head walls. The interior is mostly paved with stone slabs, bearing the weight with wooden beams, painted with carved beams, and the cornice is long, which is a typical local architectural style of Zhangtai.

"This village is quite particular about feng shui." Mu Xiaowu stood at the head of the village in the wind and looked around the surrounding mountains, "There is Qinglong Mountain on the left side of the village and Baihu Mountain on the right. As soon as the white tiger fell to the bottom, it was extremely tamed, it was the left green dragon with his head raised and the right white tiger with his head bowed. ”

"If there is a green dragon and a white tiger, should there be a Xuanwu Vermilion Bird?" Zhao Zimai saw that she was very familiar with feng shui, and her doubts rose again, so she asked quietly and wanted to lead her to say a few more words.

Mu Xiaowu didn't notice his thoughts, he only looked at the mountain peaks in the distance, and said with a smile, "The intersection of Qinglong Mountain and Baihu Mountain is Xuanwu, and the south slope beam of the mountain opposite the village is the Vermilion Bird. ”

Zhao Zimai raised his eyes and looked into the distance, only to see the green dragon and the white tiger stretching out their arms to hold Zhaitang Village in their arms, so that the village west of the village to avoid the cold and bear the yin and yang. The slope beam in the south of the mountain falls from the southwest Bijia Hill to the southeast, flattens to the opposite side of the village, and then falls sharply to the left in front of the village, confronts the Qinglong and encloses the village into a water outlet.

"This explanation is very transparent, even I, a layman, can understand it." After speaking, he glanced at her, and there seemed to be clouds and mist in his eyes.

"The mountains surrounding this village are embraced by the strong north-west winds, and enjoy the breeze. The so-called no wind flowers do not bloom, no wind and rain do not come, water is the source of all things. In the northwest of the village, there is the spring water of the twist ditch on the left, there is the river water of the yellow grass beam, the spring water of the Baoyu is planned on the right, the three waters converge from the northwest and enter, go straight to the south slope root homeopathic to the east, the arc around the village, is in response to the saying that 'the mountain is surrounded by water and must have gas'. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Zimai hurriedly asked.
