On the first seven days, Li Xuan's father avoided going out early, and in his words, it was unlucky for the living to see the dead. Even if this woman is just a dead woman after marrying him, she is diligent and thrifty, in his heart, she is just a dead woman.

The lack of affection of men can be seen.

Li Xuan has some feelings for this stepmother compared to his affectionate father. Instead of avoiding it, he chose to wait at home.

The stepmother didn't go upstairs, she just stood downstairs, staring at the dark window.

Li Xuan leaned against the window and smoked, spitting out smoke rings when she saw her stepmother as a child.

In fact, it can't be said that it was seen, it can only be said that it was seen a vague shadow. She was still wearing the same clothes she wore when she went to be cremated, and she couldn't see her face clearly, and even her shadow was empty, but he knew that it was his stepmother who had returned.

He didn't bother to snuff out his cigarette, so he ran down in his slippers.

The stepmother's appearance is not terrible, just the same as when she was in the hospital room, her cheeks are sunken, and her face is a little pale. She looked at him and said in a sad tone he had never heard before, "I want to see my son, I just want to see my son." ”

"Mother, I'm sorry." Li Xuan felt a little uncomfortable: "The day you left, I called my brother, but he didn't want to come, and I had no way to force him." Of course, I could have dragged him in and tied him up, but I know that Mother you are certainly not willing to let me do that. ”

"I went back and they were still living in the old house. But I couldn't get in. The woman said in frustration: "There is a mirror hanging on the door, and the mirror is on fire, and it is so burning that I can't walk an inch." I heard his voice, and he was telling his father that he was going to bring his girlfriend back another day. I really want to meet that girl, and I hope he will be happy for the rest of his life. I'm not a good mother, I'm sorry for him, I'm really, really sorry for him. ”

"You've done your best, and you're more uncomfortable than anyone else when you leave him. It's not your fault, it's really not your fault. ”

"Xiao Xuan, promise my mother to take a good look at him on my behalf."

"Don't worry, I'll try my best to convince him, and I'll take him to see you."

The woman finally had a smile on her face, and she said, "Thank you, mother is very grateful to you." Xiao Xuan, live a good life and take good care of your father. When you find a girlfriend in the future, get married, and have children, don't forget to tell me about it. Mother is not good, mother can't wait for you to get married and have children, mother can't continue to take care of you. ”

"You've done enough and you're good enough. Don't worry, when I get married and have children, I will definitely take him to see you, and I will tell him that you are his grandmother, and you love him as much as I do. ”

The woman nodded, and the shadow dispersed like smoke.

Li Xuan stood in place for a while, and suddenly covered his face and cried like a child. He knew that he had lost his mother again, and from then on, he really didn't have a mother.

Xing Ruyi and the magpie stood around the corner, quietly watching all this.

"Have the three fires on Li Xuan's body been extinguished?" Xing Ruyi couldn't see the fire, but she knew that the magpie could see it.

The magpie shook his head: "It's not extinguished, it's a little different from the prediction of the bronze mirror." ”

"Why didn't his stepmother go upstairs, shouldn't she have been at home to see this soul night?"

Probably because his stepmother loved them very much, and was worried that going back would add bad luck to them, so he simply stood downstairs. Sister, let me tell you, there are very few ghosts like this. Most people are tired of their own obsessions, and they don't care what happens to the people who are alive, they just want to fulfill their unfulfilled wishes and meet the people they want to meet. ”

"She also has obsessions, and her obsessions are her biological son."

"It's normal." Magpie nodded: "If my sister remembers what happened to us before, she will definitely miss Xiao Gongzi and Xiao Miss." ”

"Little boy? Little Miss! ”

"That's right, they're all my sister's children, and they're very good-looking and beautiful." The magpie held his finger in his mouth: "I haven't seen them for a long time, and I don't know if they have grown taller or become cuter." ”

"My child ......" Although he couldn't remember the two children, Xing Ruyi felt that his heart suddenly became empty.

"Probably because of my sister's kindness, as well as the deep relationship between Li Xuan and his stepmother, what we worried about didn't happen. Well, everything ends perfectly. It's not too early, my sister should be sleepy, let's go back. ”

"Hmm." Xing Ruyi glanced at Li Xuan, who was still sobbing, and grabbed the magpie's arm and turned around.

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard a vicious curse, which seemed to appear out of nowhere, and her ears hurt a little from the noise. She stopped and looked around. This is an old-fashioned residential building, about seventy or eighty families live, at this time, most of the families have already entered the dream, but there are also a few windows with lights on.

Xing Ruyi squinted, and she saw a woman walking around with a child in one of the windows, and she could faintly hear her husband's complaints.

He said: "The quarrel is dead, the quarrel is dead, this child cries and cries all day long, crying so much that people can't even sleep." And you, the mother can't even coax a child, you say you can do something. ”

"Scumbag!" Xing Ruyi scolded and moved his gaze to another window with a light on. In my ears, I heard another voice.

That voice, with its own vicissitudes, seemed to see through life and death: "Mom, can I sleep?" I'm really sleepy, I can't even see the exercises clearly. ”

"What to sleep, the college entrance examination is coming soon, you don't do the questions well, can you be admitted to Tsinghua University, can you be admitted to Peking University? If you can't get into a prestigious university, you'll have to be a useless taxi driver like your dead dad. Come on, come on, this is the milk that my mother prepared for you, drink it and continue to do the question, and let's go to sleep after finishing this page. ”

Xing Ruyi shook her head, she didn't know how to blame such parents, because most parents are like this, they have worked hard all their lives, and they all think that their children can change their fate. As everyone knows, some things are predestined long before the child is born. For example, status, class, and privilege.

"What is my sister looking at?"

"I can seem to see what's going on in those windows, and I can hear some very small sounds." Xing Ruyi said suspiciously. "Is there something wrong with my eyes and my ears?"

"It's normal, my sister used to be able to do this." The magpie didn't think there was anything to it, "Maybe, in a few days, my sister will be as powerful as before." ”

"Was I very good before?"

"It's amazing, it's a very good kind." The magpie yawned: "Sister let's go, what is there to see and hear in this old yard." ”

Xing Ruyi's gaze swept over the other window, but he didn't listen to the voice inside.

After she and the magpie left, the noise in the window grew louder and louder, waking up the sleeping couple next door.

"Old thing, you are an old immortal, dragging people down every day. Say, "I owe you nothing, I owe you this family?" I'm so tired from work every day, and when I get home, I have to serve you old thing, eat and drink. Do you think I did evil in my last life, or how could I be unlucky enough to marry into your family? Xu Chunmei cursed fiercely while cleaning up the futon that had just been messed up for her mother-in-law who was paralyzed in bed.

Xu Chunmei's mother-in-law has been paralyzed in bed for three years, and she accidentally twisted her foot and fell to the ground while dancing in the square. fell out of place, and smashed his hip bone in one fell swoop. From that day on, she collapsed in bed. The pain made her scream day and night, and the old lady, who was originally beautiful and pretty, learned to deliberately pull feces and urine on the bed, and even deliberately smeared it everywhere with her hands. She wanted to die, but she couldn't. Xu Chunmei also wanted her to die, but she couldn't die.

So, the paralyzed mother-in-law and daughter-in-law tortured each other like this for three years.

"Old immortal, I warn you, I warn you one last time, I have freshly washed and changed this sheet and bedding, and if you want to pee on, pull it into that hole. If you dare to get me on the bed again, I'll kill you, believe it or not? ”

Xu Chunmei pulled up the sheets viciously, and the old lady looked at her and made a "ahhhhh

In the second year after being paralyzed, the old lady was speechless. The doctor said she had aphasia, but it was unclear why.

Xu Chunmei knew that her warning was useless, but she couldn't hold back if she didn't warn. She ignored the old lady's incoherent ah-ah, but tiredly beat her arm, picked up the cold white porridge on the table next to her, and forced it into her mother-in-law's mouth with a spoon.

"Eat, give me something to eat, if you dare to spit it out, I'll hit you with an ear scraper."

The old lady shook her head desperately, and Xu Chunmei tried her best to feed hard, "Bang! The bowl fell to the ground, and the white porridge was scattered all over the ground.

Xu Chunmei looked at the white porridge scattered on the ground, and then looked at the futon that was covered with feces and urine thrown aside, smelling the unpleasant smell in the air, her eyes were red.

"Old immortal thing, I think you are tired and crooked!" Xu Chunmei pounced forward and choked the old lady's neck hard. The old lady burst into tears uncomfortably, but there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"What to do, this day is not stopping. Xu Chunmei, Xu Chunmei, you come out for me, what's going on in this house? It's not telling you to serve our mother well, are you lazy, are you letting her get and pee on your body again. I'm telling you, if you don't serve our mother well, I'll divorce you. Did you hear about the divorce? ”

Holding the old lady's hand and slowly letting go, Xu Chunmei glanced indifferently and tilted her head to the side, and even the old lady who was dripping saliva and white saliva walked out.

She looked at the man and said, "I heard it, won't I get a divorce?" Okay, when. ”
