Chapter 47: The Three Crows
"She can't see me?" I muttered in surprise, looking down at my transparent hands, relieved.
"Come to think of it, I'm dreaming, but... The dream was all too real. I smiled wryly.
The woman walked slowly towards Shenjia Village with a procrastination of steps.
For the first time, I could feel so clearly that it was a dream.
Everything is so real, yet so unreal.
Since it's a dream, then I have to take a good look at what message this dream wants to convey to me.
Keeping up with the woman's pace, I stared at her and muttered.
Her face was covered with dust and dregs, but it didn't affect her features in the slightest.
She's beautiful. It's just messy muddy hair, ragged clothes, she either suffers or goes crazy.
And the main thing. It's just that she's walking too slowly.
This made me impatient.
"Forget it, let's go to this Shenjia Village first." I looked up at the village gate, and I couldn't help but feel familiar.
Shenjia Village?
Duan Zhengxuan seems to have said that he took me away in Shenjia Village, and my name is Shen Sin.
My surname is Shen very well understood, but this sin?
I wondered why Duan Zhengxuan would give me such a name.
Under the entrance of the village. There is a chair with a puff fan on the chair.
In every village, there used to be a village guard, and if the village keeper was not there, something big must have happened in the village.
"Crows? This does not bode well. I frowned, looked at the three crows standing on the doorpost at the entrance of the village, and had a bad feeling in my heart.
"Let's take a look at the village." I walked in.
Within two steps of entering the village, I saw two villagers talking and laughing towards a new house.
"Don't say it, Shen Chun's daughter-in-law is married well, that big ass will definitely be able to have children!"
"Haha, let's go to Spring's house to see if it's born, if it's not a son, then it's fun!"
Shen Spring?
Why is there still a name like this, wait for another iron egg, and Wangcai will be even more ridiculous.
In today's countryside, the names are cooler than the other, what kind of heavenly policy, pure sheep, eight shows, which is not shocking and crying ghosts and gods!
What kind of spring is this? It must have been named decades ago.
Although there were some complaints in his heart, he still followed the two to a two-story brick house that had just been built.
In the open space in front of this brick house, a large number of men, women, and children have long been enclosed, and they are all discussing one thing.
That's the man sitting in front of the door, with a nervous face.
His scarred hands rubbed against each other. I was so nervous that I even started to sweat on my forehead.
"It's been more than an hour, hasn't it?"
"yes, I don't know if it's a man or a woman!"
"I see that Shen Chun's mother-in-law likes to eat sour dates when she is pregnant, a sour and spicy girl, she must be a son!"
"Then I will congratulate the spring in advance and add another boy to our Shenjia Village!"
Shen Chun listened to the congratulations of the people around him, and forced a smile on his face, but his face was not very good-looking.
His face was pale, and his lips were a little black.
"Spring, are you making this nervous? It's not you kid who gives birth! An older man who was somewhat similar to Shen Chun came over and patted him on the shoulder and smiled.
I still don't understand his dialect.
Shen Chun smiled reluctantly: "Second uncle, I'm panicking." ”
"Panic. Didn't you give birth to a daughter, and you're afraid that you won't be able to raise a boy? The second uncle smiled, patted Shen Chunchun's shoulder and said, "How can you accompany your wife when you are so nervous, I'll bring Xiao Ran over to make you relaxed." ”
"Second uncle, don't need..."
Before Shen Chun finished speaking, the second uncle got up and patted him on the shoulder, turned around and left.
Shen Chun smiled bitterly and could only let him leave.
Shortly after leaving, a baby's cry came from the room.
I was standing not far away, somehow filled with tension in my heart.
"Born, born!"
"Finally gave birth, I bet five cents, this child must be a son!"
"I'm betting on my son too!"
"There's no one to press her daughter at all! What a gamble! ”
It's not just the surrounding villagers who are excited. And Shen Spring.
He stood up, agitated at the door.
The door opened, and a midwife walked out.
Her face is not very good-looking, my heart... I also pinched it.
"Grandma, is it raw, is it born?" Shen Chun, who was not very good at speaking, was so excited that he stammered a little.
The midwife hesitated for a moment, sighed, and said, "She left a son." ”
"Son!?" Shen Chun trembled with excitement, but he seemed to hear something. Immediately ran towards the house.
My heart thumped and I entered the house with Shen Chun.
There was also a midwife inside, looking at Shen Chun with a regretful expression.
I understand what the midwife said, she left you a son.
"No, no, no..." Shen Chun's expression was painful, he couldn't speak, he only knew how to say no.
Somehow, a line of tears flowed from my left eye.
"What's the matter, does this dream still feel me?" I shook my head and immediately turned and walked away.
The moment I went out, I saw three crows standing in the treetops next to me.
And after the crowd. There was the madwoman who had just walked along.
I frowned, the crow was psychic, symbolizing doom, and the three crows gathered together. It is even more of a fierce appearance.
When I looked up at the crow, and then at the mad woman again, I saw that the mad woman was gone!
What's going on?
I'm dreaming, but she's not. How did it disappear in the blink of an eye?
"Spring! Spring is not good! ”
The second uncle's anxious voice sounded, and he ran over in a panic and waved towards Shen Chun.
Shen Chun came out dejected at this time, and before he could speak, the second uncle said, "Spring!" Go and see Xiao Ran! She fell into your well! ”
"What!" Shen Chun exclaimed and immediately ran towards the backyard.
Seeing the lively villagers, they immediately ran towards the backyard at this moment.
"Three crows will bring calamity, no, it is a harbinger of calamity." I looked up at the three crows and whispered, "Only now, I can't hear you." ”
Subsequently, I also followed the steps of Shen Chun and the others and ran to the backyard.
Today can be described as a disaster for Shen Chun's family.
When I got to the backyard, Shen Ran, who fell into the well, had already been salvaged.
She had already choked her breath at this point, and her body was swelling in the water like a bulging balloon.
"Tut-tut. What bad things did Shen Chun do! ”
"Yes, if you don't do bad things, will the women in the family die?"
"And you see, Shen Ran's corpse is as swollen as a ball, even if he soaks in water for a month, it won't become like this!"
"This is the jealousy of the heavens, this Shen Spring has provoked the anger of the heavens!"
"Wouldn't it? Shen Chun is honest, and Shen Ran, this little girl, is also obedient and sensible... Do you think it could be Shen Chun's newborn son? ”
"It's possible that Shen Chun's family has a broom star. As soon as he was born, he killed his mother and cursed his sister! ”
"What is possible! I just saw a crow in the treetops, and it must be that child who brought the calamity! ”
"In the future, we will stay away from Shen Chun! lest we too be cursed! ”
The whispers of the villagers made Shen Chun, who was collecting Shen Ran's body, open his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"Shut up, see what's going on, get out of here! Gossip here again, believe it or not, I'm throwing you all into the well! The second uncle stood up at this time and scolded angrily.
The expressions on everyone's faces were obviously extremely afraid of the second uncle, so they could only babble in their mouths and walk away.
After a while, only Shen Chun and the second uncle were left in the backyard.
"Their words, don't take it to heart, after dealing with these things, you come into the city with me, this year happens to be the millennium, and there are many opportunities in the city." The second uncle sighed and comforted Shen Chun.
Shen Chun smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My wife is dead, my daughter is dead, what's the point of making money or not." ”
"And my eloquence is not good, when I enter the city, I will only be embarrassed by the second uncle." Shen Chun smiled bitterly.
The second uncle didn't speak again, but continued to follow Shen Chun and continued to roll Shen Ran up with a straw mat.
"Millennium? Is this man talking about the millennium? Wasn't that the year I was born? I exclaimed in my heart, my pupils fluttering!
"Suffered!" I chuckled in my heart, the secret way is not good.
