Chapter 3 Daylilies
"Hello...... Is the boss there, please? ”
Ji Cheng looked at the visitor with some surprise, "Hello, I am." ”
Outside the window, the rain was frantically beating against the window under the action of the strong wind, and Ji Cheng did not expect that there would be customers coming to the door in this kind of weather. The visitor was a woman in her early forties, pale, with a coat and umbrella dripping incessantly. The woman was a little cramped, not knowing whether to step out of the standing carpet and into the store.
"If you don't mind, you can wipe it with a towel, it's clean." Ji Cheng moved the wheelchair and handed the woman a towel, "Just put the umbrella on the ground, and the coat can also be hung directly on the hook by the door." ”
"Thank you." The woman took off her coat, revealing the blue and white hospital gown underneath, "I heard that you can buy things here that grant your wishes. ”
Ji Cheng led the woman to sit down at the table and poured her another cup of hot water, "Are you going to heal?" I'm not a doctor. ”
"No, I'm not trying to heal." The woman smiled wryly, "I rolled down the stairs and was hospitalized. The head hit the steps, causing a moderate concussion and a blood clot pressing on the nerves. ”
"The blood clot in the skull can be surgically removed."
"The success rate is about 30%." The woman picked up the glass of water and took a sip, "So I don't want to be cured." ”
Ji Cheng's right eye narrowed involuntarily, "Then I don't quite understand what you mean by coming here." ”
"I got into an argument with my husband and was pushed down the stairs." The woman's eyes looked at her vague reflection in the water glass, "Five years ago, I was unexpectedly pregnant with my second child. About 6 weeks or so, I encountered a robbery on the road and almost had a miscarriage. On his way there, he was in a car accident and fractured the radius of his left hand and lost his job.
He is a very gentle person, but after that, he starts to become sensitive and irritable. That night, due to an urgent project the next day, one of my colleagues sent me home, and he saw it and thought that I had betrayed him because he had lost his job, so he started beating me, and the child was beaten until it was miscarried......
After that, he didn't do anything more, but he started restricting my travel, questioning me whenever I didn't get home on time, and smashing things and even self-harming if my answers didn't satisfy him. ”
Self-harm? Ji Cheng was a little surprised, "Then why don't you consider divorce?" ”
"A lot of people who are victims of domestic violence are asked this question." The woman smiled, full of sadness, "I don't know about anyone else, but I don't want a divorce." I could feel that he loved me. He himself regretted that he had lost our child, so he didn't touch me again every time he did, and every time he hugged me with a bloody hand and cried. ”
"None of this can hide the fact that he is a domestic violence." Ji Min's ten fingers crossed, his brows furrowed slightly, "I regret that I once caused you physical damage, so I used self-harm to oppress you on a psychological level, I think this is also a kind of domestic violence." Do your friends or loved ones know about this? What about your children? ”
"They don't know." The woman shook her head, "He's a good son, a good teacher, and even a good husband ...... usually."
"So, why are you here today?"
"I want to buy something so that if I die one day, he can forget about me." The words that came out of the woman's mouth were completely unexpected. She put down the cup in her hand and raised her eyes to look at Ji Ying, "I hope he can forget me and our son." Xian'er automatically found out that his father had done something to me for the first time, and she never forgave him again. Xian'er is an adult, and I think he can accept it......"
"So what exactly did you sell her to?" Ji Xiaoran frowned, holding the pottery piece in her hand and looking at Ji Ying, "Can I understand that what you sold made her give up her life?" ”
Ji Cheng looked at the full of resentment on the face of the seven-point statue in front of him, raised his hand and patted her head, "I don't want to be abused by your mother." While boiling the anti-raw incense, a tube of her blood and a daylily stamen were added to the jade cauldron. When she dies, her blood directs her soul to the incense pills. The Anti-Soul Tree can seal her soul for a month, and if you light the incense pill within a month, you will be able to see her remnant soul; After a month, the incense pill will be invalidated, and the soul will naturally dissipate. ”
"Daylilies are used to erase memories? Daylily doesn't have such an effect, does it? ”
Ji Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Can you be dissatisfied with all the food you think about?" I also did not erase his memory. It's not easy for people to meet and fall in love, and that's all the treasures of life. Autumn daylilies do have the effect of forgetting worries. The stamens blend into the incense, and the blood is used as a guide, which can make him forget the unpleasant memories between the two. ”
"This situation is a self-contained memory, scattered mandarin ducks." Ji Xiaoran sighed, stood up after packing up the pottery shards and incense ashes, and knocked on his waist, "This person, just let him continue to lie on his stomach like this?" ”
"Lie on your stomach." Ji Ying shrugged his shoulders and took the things from Ji Xiaoran's hand, "The memory of his arrival in the store will also be forgotten as an unpleasant memory." When the time passed, he would only feel that he was too tired to fall asleep in the piano room. ”
Ji Xiaoran pursed her lips and dragged the wheelchair hard to turn around, Ji Cheng was caught off guard and tilted her body, looked at her daughter who still had a trace of dissatisfaction on her face, and said helplessly, "What kind of tantrum are you doing?" ”
"Nope." Ji Xiaoran didn't look at the person who spoke, and pushed the wheelchair to the door.
It was pitch black outside the door, and all the light in the piano room was swallowed up by darkness. Ji Xiaoran pushed the wheelchair in, but when the front wheel of the wheelchair passed through the door frame, it appeared directly in the antique store. When the two of them saw the people in the store who were looking at them with their chests and hands, they both involuntarily straightened their waists.
"What are you two doing again?"
Ji Xiaoran smelled the anger revealed in the flat voice, and immediately ran to the woman, forcibly reached in with one hand and grabbed the woman's arm, and pointed directly at Ji Ying with the other hand, "Mom, Dad said you would abuse him!" ”
"Oh?" Zhao Ziqing's word ended with a smile, but falling into Ji Ying's ears made him feel cold down his spine.
"That's obviously fun, how can it be said to be domestic violence?!" Ji Cheng was stimulated by a strong desire to survive and subconsciously spoke, without being irritable, "What do you know about your little family?" ”
Ji Xiaoran snorted disdainfully, twisted his little head, and threw Ji Ying a tsundere ponytail.
"Did you just go to clean up the aftermath again?" Zhao Ziqing knows very well what her own man is.
"Nothing! Just let Xiao Ran accompany me to get something. In order to confirm himself, Ji Cheng immediately went out of the broken pottery furnace, "Someone else borrowed my pottery stove, I wanted to get it today, and it turned out that the guy was broken!" I didn't even bother him! ”
"Really?" This sounded like she was saying it to Ji Cheng, but Zhao Ziqing's eyes fell on the daughter beside her, and she nodded quickly in fright.
"Okay." Zhao Ziqing believed the words of these two people, "Don't make trouble, let me find out about my family when the time comes, then I will kill my relatives in righteousness." Looking at Ji Ying, who was busy nodding, Zhao Ziqing snorted coldly, "Also, don't take Xiao Ran with you for everything." ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
Seeing Ji Cheng reassure, Zhao Ziqing nodded with satisfaction, withdrew his hand from Ji Xiaoran's arms, and walked in the direction of Ji Negative, "What are you going to eat tonight?" ”
"Lao Liu came here in the morning and sent a chicken." Ji Cheng turned his wheelchair and got out of the way into the back room, "You can stir-fry chili fried chicken, or coconut chicken, and there are two coconuts at home." ”
Seeing his daughter-in-law enter the kitchen, Ji Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and glared fiercely at Ji Xiaoran, who had just relaxed, "Girl, betray me?" ”
"Dead friends don't die poor. Besides, didn't you say that it was fun? Ji Xiaoran grinned, "By the way, what price did that aunt pay?" ”
Ji Cheng put on a pair of arrogance that did not match her age, and the words she said made Ji Xiaoran's teeth itch, "You will never guess the price." ”
