At twelve o'clock in the night, Tian Tao woke up.

She sat up and looked at the man lying beside her. The man's face was already plain, but as he got older, it became more and more ugly. His hair was greasy, and even in the dark, she could smell the smell of not bathing for many days. She stared at the man in disgust, thinking to herself, how she had survived all these years.

She is a beautiful girl, and she has a decent but decent job in this city, but that job can only make ends meet, and it will not allow her to fully integrate into the city, and make her completely become a person in this city.

She also looked for men who were better than him, but those men, when they heard the word "marriage", began to dodge their eyes, and even avoided her. She knew that her bad background was the main reason why they were discouraged.

The man lying next to her was introduced by the company's eldest sister, who is a local and his family is facing demolition. She had privately calculated the number. Money, not a lot, but enough to buy a suite in the city. As long as she has a house and a hukou, she can become a real city person, and she no longer has to curry favor with the landlord every month and send all the money she has earned so hard to into other people's pockets.

What's more, the man also has a stable job and earns almost twice as much as her. She inquired that the man's family structure was very simple, his father disappeared at an early age, his sister died of illness, and there was only one widow in the family. This is a good thing for her.

After the first meeting, she took a liking to him and sent a signal that she could move on. He really took the bait. During the time of falling in love, he was really good to her, so good that he would buy her what she wanted without thinking, what she hated, and the man would help her dispose of it without opening her mouth.

Before marriage, she also met her mother-in-law. A strong, capable old woman. The key is that she can still earn a lot of money every month. Tian Tao calculated that if all this money was in his own name, it would be a small fortune.

Then she learned more about the name, and she waited until the man bought the house and promised to write her name before she got married to the man. In the first year after marriage, both the man and the old lady treated her well, but from the second year, the old lady disliked her from time to time. I dislike her for spending money, and I dislike her for not adding a child to the family as soon as possible.

At first, the man still protected her, but gradually the two words she heard the most in her ears were: "That's my mother, what do you tell me to do?" My mom is so old, you can't let her, it's not easy for her to raise me. ”

In this world, who lives easily?

It's not easy for her, she also suffered a lot when she was a child, why didn't anyone say: "For the sake of Tian Tao who has suffered so much, treat Tian Tao well, so that she can live comfortably in the second half of her life." ”

It's all people, it's all women, why should she let her? She married him, and she was also very wronged, okay?

Finally, on the afternoon of the man's absence, the contradiction broke out!

Tian Tao was reluctant to remember what happened that day, and she took her eyes off the man's slightly ugly face. Turn on the phone, click on the familiar avatar, and there is really something she wants to hear in the dialog box.

Men's extramarital affairs are forced by women.

Women's extramarital affairs are also forced by men.

Yes, she found the man she liked, a young and handsome young man. He couldn't give her a stable life, but he gave her the love and care she wanted. A series of roses in the dialog box stained her eyes red, and she sweetly picked up her phone and walked into the living room.

"I hate it, I still give roses to people so late."

"You are the most beautiful red rose in my heart. My dear, I miss you, let's meet tomorrow. Shanshui people, room 303, I'll wait for you. ”

"I miss you too, wait for me!"

She typed the words quickly, but what came to mind was the scene of the love of the past.

The body began to become restless, and the cheeks became hot.

"I bought new clothes, do you want to see them?"

She sent a shy picture of the past, and there was no response for a long time.

She sent again: "Honey, are you asleep?" ”

A blood mark suddenly appeared in the dialog box, and she almost threw away what she was holding.

As the minutes ticked by, just as she couldn't help but want to send a video conversation, there was a sudden movement in the bedroom. She nervously covered her phone and looked up in the direction of the bedroom. She saw that the man sat up.

"What's wrong?" She asked, feeling a little empty.

"What are you doing? Why don't you sleep yet? The man sat still, and she let go of the hand that was holding her phone.

"I got up to go to the toilet and walked to the living room feeling a little thirsty. Hurry up and go to sleep, you have to go to work tomorrow. ”

The man hummed softly, and then said sullenly, "I dreamed of my mother." She stood in front of my bed in the same dress she wore when she left, and asked me in a very strange voice if I wanted a hat. I asked her what hat she was, and she said green hat. ”

"Green hat!" Tian Tao pursed her lips: "Dreaming, anything strange can happen." Not to mention the green hat, even the ordinary black hat is not seen, you will wear it. Hurry up and go to sleep. I'll go back to the bathroom. ”

"Tian Tao, do you say my mother is blaming me? In the past, it was said that the grave was piled up with earth. After a while, the grave will be covered with grass, and it will look like a hat from a distance. But now this tomb is made of concrete, and like the houses in this city, there is no temperature at all. My mom, is she feeling cold? ”

"Don't think about it, it's weird and scary." Knowing that the man didn't think in that direction, Tian Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then I'll sleep." The man lay back on the collapse: "Another day, let's go see our mother." ”

"Okay, okay, you can do whatever you want." Tian Tao replied impatiently.

Inevitably, the man said some nonsense, Tian Tao held the mobile phone and went to the bathroom. As soon as I closed the door, a chill rushed up from the soles of my feet. Tian Tao couldn't help but shudder. She looked at her glasses, and they were blurry in the mirror, like someone had just taken a shower in the bathroom.

"It's disgusting, I don't remember to wipe the mirror every time I take a shower. And the water, I don't know how to clean it up. I know, I said that my mother-in-law had taken a bath, I didn't know, and I thought our bathroom was leaking. ”

Tian Tao somehow thought of the words he usually complained about in his mind. In fact, she also understands that the old man is thrifty, and when he reaches a certain age, he is a little confused about doing things. At first, she also patiently taught and cleaned up with all her heart, but later, she got annoyed and tired. She is also a woman, she also has to go to work, she is also tired when she comes home every day, she is not looking forward to being a princess, but she also does not want to be an old mother who is always busy.

Mother-in-law, it's not without the slightest benefit, but that little bit of benefit has long been worn out by life.

She sighed and sat down on the toilet seat. Turn on your phone, and the page is still stuck on the page where the dialog box is flashing.

"Honey, did you sleep or not? I'm telling you, if you ignore me, I won't see you tomorrow. ”

Click and send.

Suddenly I heard a "thump" in my ears. When I looked down, I saw a white, round thing at my feet. When I picked it up, I found that it was a peanut, but the surface of the peanut was coated with a layer of rough frosting.

"It must be the old lady." Tian Tao opened the trash can and threw the peanuts into it.

The old lady dotes on her son, and every time she buys something, she hides it, worried that she, as a daughter-in-law, will give her a share. Once, when she cleaned the toilet tank, she found a packet of walnuts wrapped in plastic paper. It's a pity that this is in the city, and if it's in the countryside where there are many rats, the water tank will be bitten nine times out of ten.

After staring at it for a long time, there was no new information in the WeChat dialog box, she stood up a little lost, came to the sink, and turned on the faucet. Tian Tao put the phone aside, bent down to wash it there, and at this time, an old man's face was slowly reflected in the mirror. The face was full of wrinkles, but the expression was blank.

She stared at Tian Tao who was bending down to wash her face through the mirror, as if she was about to come out of it. Her tongue hung on her lips, but her neck was crooked.

Just when the old man in the mirror slowly stretched out his hand and was about to grab Tian Tao, Tian Tao suddenly stood up. She grabbed the towel, wiped her face, and opened her eyes, only to be met with a face that terrified her.

Screaming, stalk in her throat, she could only helplessly open a pair of big eyes, watching the hand pass through the mirror and caress her face.

"Shanshui people, room 303. Tian Tao, why are you sorry for my son? ”

"Nope! I didn't! ”

"You lie, that afternoon, while we were tearing, I scratched your pocket. There's something out of your pocket, something that's only available in a hotel. Although I am old, but my eyes are not flowery, I recognize the above four words: landscape people. My son is so good to you, but you hide from him to steal men outside. I was going to question you, to show it to my son, but you snatched it from me like a shrew. As a result, you knocked me down and knocked my head on the cabinet. I, fainted. As a daughter-in-law, not only did you not save me, but instead strangled my neck with a rope. Tian Tao, it was you who made me what I am now, and it was you who turned me from a human to a ghost. ”

"I didn't, I didn't mean to. It's you, you forced me. You are old, and you should live your own life, not our daily life. Tian Tao also became ruthless: "I'm not afraid of you." When you are alive, I will not be afraid of you, and when you die, I will not be afraid of you. Yes, I'm dating someone, but you're forcing me to do that. Who told you to stir up the relationship between our husband and wife every day, and who told you to make your son more and more bad to me. ”
