"The Salesperson of the Shroud Shop"

Chapter 5: The courage of the mother-in-law

When I opened my eyes in a daze, I saw that it was already 10 o'clock in the morning, and the scene that happened last night seemed to be like a nightmare, and now that I woke up from the dream, Wu Yu still had heart palpitations.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that Wu Yu was in a cold sweat again, and he slept in the place where he fainted yesterday with Sun Xiaoxi in his arms, and the house was in chaos as if he had been robbed. Wu Yu rubbed his head, which was still a little dizzy, but saw that the talisman that was originally hanging on Sun Xiaoxi's chest seemed to be burned, leaving only a small black hole on his clothes and a black bead the size of a little finger. Seeing that Sun Xiaoxi was breathing evenly, he may have been frightened yesterday and has fallen asleep now.

Wu Yu secretly kissed Sun Xiaoxi's face and picked up Sun Xiaoxi and walked to the bedroom, although since Sun Xiaoxi was pregnant, all places in the house were covered with thick carpets, but that was just to prevent Sun Xiaoxi from falling, if Sun Xiaoxi was really allowed to sleep on the ground for a long time, in case the cold affected the body and the child, not only Wu Yu himself could not pass this level, I am afraid that his mother-in-law would take his life.

Wu Yu had just put Sun Xiaoxi on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and was studying the beads left after the talisman burned alone, when the door was opened.

As soon as Wu Yu turned around, he saw his mother-in-law walking in with a large bag of food. Wu Yu hurriedly stepped forward to take the things in his mother-in-law's hand, and asked with a flattering face: "Why are you here, you still have such things, you have everything to eat at home, you can rest assured!" I definitely can't let Xiaoxi go hungry. ”

Mother Sun glanced at Wu Yu: "I don't know you young people, you don't usually pay attention to diet, Xiaoxi is about to give birth, you have to pay more attention to diet, otherwise my grandson is stunted, I can't spare you." ”

Since Wu Yu and Sun Xiaoxi got along, every time he saw Sun's mother, he was terrified, so he had to nod his head and say: You are right.

Mother Sun walked to the kitchen with her things, but as soon as she walked into the kitchen, she exclaimed: "Ah! What's going on! ”

Mother Sun is also an old criminal policeman, but she was surprised and put down her things and walked to the dining table. Wu Yu didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly followed, only to take a look at it and almost didn't throw it up.

On the dining table, a charred cat was sitting there, and except for the unburned bones that could be seen as a cat, the rest of the place was completely burned to ashes.

Mother Sun glanced at Wu Yu, and when she saw that Wu Yu was at a loss, she pushed Wu Yu away and turned around and entered the bedroom. Wu Yu didn't know what was going on, didn't the cat stun him and Sun Xiaoxi last night, why was he burned like this.

Seeing Sun Xiaoxi lying calmly on the bed, Sun's mother breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked out of the bedroom with the bedroom door and asked, "What the hell is going on, what did you do last night." What's going on with this cat. ”

Wu Yu glanced at the interrogator and seemed to be Mother Sun, and quickly told him what happened last night. I also know that those weird things I'm afraid that Mother Sun can't believe it, Wu Yu explained while talking about yesterday's events: "Maybe I was too nervous, and I saw it wrong yesterday." ”

Mother Sun glared at Wu Yu, this glance almost didn't scare Wu Yu out, and the old criminal policeman for many years almost killed Wu Yu in seconds with just one look. Wu Yu also knew that what he said was too, and he was thinking about how to explain it! But I heard Mother Sun say: "It seems that Xiaoxi has caused trouble, I don't blame you for this, you did a good job." But no matter what happens, you should call me and Xiaoxi's father, Xiaoxi is about to give birth, it is the most critical moment, no matter what happens, you should report it to me as soon as possible, this is your negligence. ”

Wu Yu hurriedly nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, but I really don't believe in these things, I think it's all feudal superstition, so I don't take it seriously." ”

Mother Sun snorted coldly: "Feudal superstition? I've been a criminal policeman all my life, and I've solved no less than 100 cases of feudal superstition with Xiaoxi's father, do you really think these things don't exist? When I gave birth to Xiaoxi, if it weren't for Xiaoxi and her grandfather, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to see my Xiaoxi. ”

Wu Yu didn't listen to anything at first, but the more he listened, the more wrong it became: "What? You mean, you believe in these things? ”

Mother Sun pointed to the burned cat on the dining table and said, "How do you think Miao Miao died?" Miao Miao was sent to me by her grandfather when I gave birth to Xiaoxi, have you ever seen a cat that has lived for more than 20 years? Miao Miao and Xiaoxi are big on the side, and they have protected Xiaoxi since Xiaoxi was a child, as long as there are children bullying Xiaoxi, Miao Miao will definitely scratch people's whole body. Xiaoxi's grandfather told me that Miao Miao could help Xiaoxi escape the catastrophe, boy, believe it or not. ”

Wu Yu was shocked, although the cat's strange behavior last night made Wu Yu firmly believe that the cat was trying to harm Sun Xiaoxi, so he desperately did not let the cat get close to Sun Xiaoxi. But today, when I saw that the cat itself was burned, there were only bones left, and then I heard Mother Sun say this, could it be that this cat really wanted to save Xiaoxi last night?

Wu Yu was still a little puzzled, but Sun's mother said: "It's not wrong, the homeless man and the doctor who told you that Xiaoxi had something on him yesterday seem to understand these things." ”

Mother Sun stretched out her hand: "Show me the bead you said." ”

The mother-in-law stretched out her hand, and Wu Yu hurriedly handed over the black bead. Mother Sun glanced at it and returned it to Wu Yu: "You keep it!" This thing is useless. ”

Wu Yu didn't know what the situation was, but it could be seen that his mother-in-law let him keep it, so he hurriedly put it away.

Mother Sun looked at the cat's corpse on the table again and said, "Miao Miao died to save Xiaoxi, you put away its corpse, and when Xiaoxi is finished in a few days, let's buy a cemetery for it and bury it well!" ”

Seeing the emotional appearance of his mother-in-law, Wu Yu really wanted to roll his eyes: It's easy for you to say, do you know how much a flat the cemetery is now, it is more expensive than a living person's house, and there are only twenty years of property rights. Twenty years later, it has to be renewed.

Seeing the unnaturalness on Wu Yu's face, Mother Sun glanced at Wu Yu: "Stinky boy, I'll pay for this money." You don't need to spend money on your kid, just keep your little money and live a good life with Xiaoxi! ”

Wu Yu smiled awkwardly: "What did you say!" I thought we wouldn't buy any cemetery, go back and cremate the cat, and buy an urn to keep at home. This cat protects Xiaoxi so much, if it is offered at home, won't it be more able to protect Xiaoxi! ”

Mother Sun smiled: "Okay, I'll cook, you clean up the house." When the meal is ready, I will call Xiaoxi to get up and eat together. ”

Wu Yu hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't! You can rest all the time, and I'll just cook. ”

Mother Sun pushed Wu Yu: "You go and watch Xiaoxi, I'll just come by myself." ”

Wu Yu was also not polite, turned around and began to clean up the house. Although cleaning up the cat's corpse made Wu Yu a little disgusted, if his mother-in-law's instructions were to be discounted, I am afraid that he would not have a good time in the future.

Wu Yu carefully put the cat's corpse into an empty cardboard box, feeling disgusted in his heart, he must not die of disgust if he wants to eat at this table in the future. Just as I was pondering a chance to get a new table, I saw several deep scratches under the freshly cleaned ashes.

Seeing the scratches, Wu Yu couldn't help but think of what he saw last night when the cat seemed to be scratching something on the table with its paws, and remembered that he looked at the cat last night as if he was writing something by himself. Somehow, Wu Yu started to clean up along the scratches on a whim, but as he cleaned up, Wu Yu became more and more nervous, but he didn't expect the scratches on the table to look a little like words, and there were more and more. Until it was all cleaned up, the scratches on the dining table were neatly discharged in 6 rows.

Wu Yu didn't dare to hide it, so he hurriedly called his mother-in-law to come and see. Mother Sun was cooking, and when she heard Wu Yu calling her, she came over with a shovel for stir-frying. But looking in the direction of Wu Yu's finger, the shovel in Sun's mother's hand fell to the ground with a 'bang'. Mother Sun walked quickly to the table and began to study the scratches on the table as if she had found something.

Wu Yu thought that Sun Xiaoxi's cat would have any special functions, and what was written by Mother Sun could understand it! But for a long time, Mother Sun suddenly turned back to Wu Yu and said: "This is what Miao Miao left us, although I don't know what it means, but I'm afraid that the things on Xiaoxi's body were not sent away by Miao Miao." You wake up Xiaoxi quickly, let's hurry up and find the doctor who saw something on Xiaoxi's body yesterday. Let's see if her friend can help Xiaoxi get rid of her things. ”

Wu Yu was a little stunned, and he had read a lot of horror novels, all of which provoked something to find Daxian, but what was it on his wife that he couldn't get rid of his cats after they were burned like this.

Mother Sun pushed Wu Yu away and walked straight to the bedroom, and Wu Yu hurriedly followed after seeing this situation.

As soon as the door opened, I saw Sun Xiaoxi sleeping peacefully on the bed, looking ruddy and looking like there was something wrong. But Sun's mother still walked over and shook Sun Xiaoxi gently: "Xiaoxi, wake up!" Mom has made you something delicious, you get up and eat some first. ”

Wu Yu despised this in his heart! You are an old criminal policeman, and you don't have to say anything if you believe in feudal superstition, after all, I have seen it. But as soon as your dish came out of the pot, you said that it was delicious, and this ability to open your eyes and tell nonsense is too strong!

Mother Sun called a few times and didn't see Sun Xiaoxi's reaction, so she turned her head to look at Wu Yu and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Wu Yu shook his head, and said in his heart, how do I know.

Mother Sun suddenly grabbed Sun Xiaoxi's collar and dragged Sun Xiaoxi up, and started work with her other hand left and right to give Sun Xiaoxi two slaps. Looking at the ruthless Mother Sun, Wu Yu couldn't help but feel a pain in his face, as if these two slaps had hit him in the face. I couldn't bear to stop Mother Sun, but I saw that Sun Xiaoxi still didn't wake up after being slapped by these two slaps, and Wu Yu was also a little confused, such two slaps, such a loud voice must have hurt when I thought about it, but Sun Xiaoxi still fell asleep quietly.

Wu Yu was a little dumbfounded, but he heard Mother Sun say to Wu Yu: "Carry it up, go to the hospital and tell you that doctor." I'll call your uncle and ask him to send someone to find the homeless man who gave you the beads, no matter what you do, you must wake Xiaoxi up first! ”

Wu Yu nodded dumbly, and he hadn't come back to his senses yet. Mother Sun shouted: "Quick! ”

This sound was like thunder on the ground, and it woke Wu Yu up all of a sudden. Wu Yu picked up Sun Xiaoxi and walked out, but he inadvertently seemed to see a smile on Sun Xiaoxi's face, that smile.
