Chapter 32: Grandma's Prophecy Before Her Death
Leave Aunt Zhang to talk to herself. "It's okay, you two women cook, I'll go to town."
I followed up in the kitchen, my dad was already washing the vegetables by himself, I saw a new cigarette in his mouth, he never looked at me, I saw worry in his dignified figure.
But I didn't ask anything, I washed my hands, I skillfully cut the dishes he washed and laid them out, and then went to wash the rice, and I did it very skillfully step by step.
In the countryside, I would cook for my grandmother at the age of ten, and in the city, eighty percent of the bento boxes my dad brought to the supermarket were made by me, and some people may ask, why did Aunt Zhang go? Playing cards, she got carried away, many times she came back after the meal, cooking is even rarer, after I went to college, there was very little fire in the house, I almost forgot how long I hadn't cooked with my father!
"Dad!" After all the silence, I finally couldn't help but whisper.
My dad buried his head in the pot, his face drooping, hidden in the shadows, since he returned to his hometown, I can feel him like this, full of thoughts.
Now he suddenly stopped what he was doing, and said lightly: "Xiaoxian, what your Aunt Zhang told you is true, your grandmother ordered you a family before her death." ”
Thinking of the conversation between him and Shu An in the hall just now, I seem to have guessed it! So he asked, "Is it with the bundle that brought me back?" ”
My dad's eyes swept over my inquiring face and he nodded his head. "That night I heard you shouting outside the house, and when you Aunt Zhang found out, you were gone, and the neighbors heard that you were gone, and they helped to find you from door to door, and when it was almost dawn, they brought you back from the mountain, and your Aunt Zhang was not mistaken, you were out of breath for a long time, but that Shu An told me that he could save you, in exchange for any other father, and would not easily hand over your body to a stranger, if your grandmother hadn't told me anything back then, I won't say yes either. ”
As soon as I heard my dad mention what my grandmother said, the cells around me seemed to be alive, and I tilted my head and asked, "What did grandma ask you?" ”
"Your grandmother said that if anyone can get her cane, let you go with him!"
I was confused when I heard it, my grandmother seemed to have foreseen what would happen in the future many years before she died.
The so-called person who can hold grandma's cane, as the pawnshop boss Cao said, that cane is not available to ordinary people.
But Shu An said that he was not an ordinary person, and his father didn't stop him at that time, just to see if Shu An was that person, right?
It's just that in this darkness, there seems to be a mysterious force driving all this to happen, I am resurrected from the dead, after hearing the story of the three clans, the origin of the spiritual marriage, I just want to try to become an ordinary junior female student, and it is also at this moment that I realized my father's good intentions of wanting me to be an ordinary person.
In a moment of my thoughts, my dad spoke again: "Your grandmother is not an ordinary witch, for so many years, although I am far away from her life, but I know that what your grandmother said is right, that Shu An has confessed to me how to save you back, alas, once I wanted you to live like this with me, but it has happened so far, I have no ability to change!" ”
"Dad, when you say this, it's like you're driving me away, you don't really want me to go with that Shu'an, right?" I put down the dish in my hand and felt irritable.
