I couldn't help but roll my eyes, is this my own passion? But on second thought, after all, this is the first time I've shared a bed with a man, what's wrong with being nervous?

Thinking about my own carefulness, I fell asleep in a daze.

When I woke up, I was embarrassed to find myself curled up in Su Che's arms, my hands around his waist, legs on his legs, and Su Che naturally let me pill my head on his arm, and the other arm around my shoulder.

My face turned red all at once, and I quickly closed my eyes, but my nose smelled like his peculiar smell, and my heart beat a lot higher at once.

"Are you awake?" Su Che's faint voice came.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that he had already woken up, so I had to use a mosquito-like voice to "um", not daring to look up at his face.

Su Che chuckled, and only smiled after a while: "Get up when you wake up, otherwise my arm will be broken by your pillow." ”

……

……

After breakfast, the two of us were going to take the gifts we bought to Dr. Duan, which we had discussed before we came back, after all, it was about to be the New Year, and I should express my gratitude to him for taking care of me.

But before he went out, he heard footsteps in the yard, and then a man's voice sounded at the door: "Is Su Che at home?" ”

As soon as I heard the voice of the village chief Wang Tiezhu, why did he come to Su Che early in the morning?

I turned around and put the things back, Su Che opened the door and smiled at the village chief: "Why are you here so early, is there something wrong?" ”

The village chief did not speak, but walked into the house, and was not surprised to see me at home, as it seemed that when he came back yesterday, either he saw it, or some villagers who saw it told him.

After sitting down on the stool, the village chief spoke: "Isn't it tomorrow for the New Year, come and see how your New Year's goods are prepared and if there is anything you need help with." ”

I could tell from what I was saying that he had come to see how I was doing, and that the so-called help was nothing more than an excuse.

At this time, there is no need for me to say anything, Su Che will naturally deal with it, he smiled and said, "There is nothing that needs help, and the New Year's goods have been bought." ”

The village chief nodded, his eyes swept around the room, and he slowly stood up and said, "Okay, you two can have a reunion year." With that, he walked out.

Seeing him out of the courtyard, Su Che and I looked at each other, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What is this?" Demonstrations? ”

"Maybe Wang Lin didn't come back for the New Year, that's why he thought of us." Su Che said with a frown.

I understand what he means, the Chinese New Year is a time for family reunions, and this year the two of them have no children at home, so the New Year will not have any taste, but even so, what does it mean that he came to our house to take a look, do they still blame us for Wang Lin's departure?

My mood was not good all of a sudden, but when I thought about it, the village chief just came to take a look, and didn't say anything excessive, why should I be angry? Forget it.

Carrying things out again, Su Che looked up at the sky for a moment, and I asked curiously, "What's wrong?" ”

How could it be like this? Su Che raised his head and muttered.

I also looked up at the sky and saw that although it was daytime, the sky was filled with a layer of fog, and the sun seemed to be blocked by frosted glass behind the fog, and the sunlight did not look dazzling at all.

This kind of weather is not uncommon, I don't understand what is strange about Su Che, so I have to laugh and say, "Maybe it's going to snow again, right?" ”

Su Che nodded and didn't speak, but there was a strange look on his face, and I then asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

He glanced at me, thought about it for a while, and said, "You see that there is a faint halo around the sun, this kind of celestial phenomenon is called the white rainbow through the sun, generally speaking, when something like this happens, it means that something is going to happen." ”

I know that Su Che knows a lot more than me, and I usually watch him read some thread-bound books that I can't understand at all, and when I heard him say this, I joked and said, "No, if something happens to someone during the New Year, it will be so unlucky." ”

"That's because you don't know much, where will you pick a time for natural disasters and man-made disasters?" Su Che also replied with a smile.

Celestial phenomena are celestial phenomena, and even the inexplicable appearance of the village chief just now failed to affect our good mood, not to mention a sign that something happened to someone who didn't know who's home? So the two of us went out with our things and went straight to Dr. Duan's house.

When I passed by the ancestral shrine, I couldn't help but look inside, it was a little deserted here, but someone will come to do some sacrificial activities tomorrow, because tomorrow is the Chinese New Year's Eve, I don't know if my father and mother are in it now, what are they busy with.

After passing the ancestral shrine, walk a few hundred meters to Dr. Duan's clinic, the door was not locked, Su Che stepped forward and knocked on the door and asked, "Is Dr. Duan at home?" ”

After a few minutes, after we were waiting a little anxiously, the door creaked open, and Dr. Duan stood there and said with a smile, "It turns out that you two are here, come in." ”

Su Che and I were stunned when we saw his pale face, and I hurriedly asked, "Doctor Duan, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Are you alright? Why do you ask? Dr. Duan asked with a smile on his face.

I don't know if he didn't notice it or deliberately wanted to hide something, but he asked, "You looked pretty good yesterday, why are you so pale this morning?" ”

Dr. Duan paused for a moment, then explained that it might be because he stayed up late last night and that it would be good to rest, and then let us into the house.

I knew that he lived alone since I was a child, so I understood the mess in the house, and didn't care too much, Su Che put the bought gift on the table and said with a smile: "Isn't this the New Year, Jiang Cha picked out some gifts for you to express her gratitude for your help at the beginning." ”

Dr. Duan is obviously not the kind of person who has never seen the world, so he nodded and said that you have broken the bank, but there is not too much politeness.

The three of them sat down and chatted casually, and Su Che suddenly asked, "Doctor Duan, have you seen the sky today, did someone have an accident last night?" ”

Doctor Duan was stunned for a moment, looked at Su Che and asked, "What do you mean?" What's going on? Isn't it going to snow? ”

Su Che shook his head and smiled, but did not continue to talk about this topic, I sat next to me and didn't understand, knowing that Dr. Duan was a master of the world, what else was he using this celestial phenomenon to test others?

Dr. Duan was in a good mood because the two of us arrived, and told us some interesting things that happened in the village for a while, which were nothing more than the short things of the east family and the west family, but for me, who grew up in this village since I was a child, I knew all those people, so I listened to them with relish.

After talking for a while, I couldn't help but ask him, "Didn't Wang Lin never come back?" ”

Doctor Duan glanced at me, nodded and said, "No, at least I haven't seen or heard of it, why are you asking this?" ”

I laughed a little, talked about how I had seen Wang Lin twice, and then told him about the village chief going to our house in the morning, and smiled helplessly: "Maybe the two of them are angry with us because they miss Wang Lin, right?" ”

Dr. Duan was stunned, looked at us and asked, "What?" You don't know that something happened to the village chief's wife? ”

Su Che and I were stunned, and Su Che said suspiciously: "I've always come back every three or five days, why haven't I heard of her accident, what happened to her?" ”

I also looked at Dr. Duan nervously, but he smiled bitterly and said, "It's strange, this matter is spreading in the surrounding villages, you don't know that she has been dead for almost a month!" ”

What the? I almost stood up after listening to it, Wang Lin's mother died?

"How did she die?" I asked, with a hint of shock.

Dr. Duan told us that the villagers didn't go out much in the early winter, but Wang Lin's mother went out early in the morning, and because she didn't come back for a day, the village chief mobilized the whole village to look for her, and found her body in the mountains in the middle of the night.

As for why she went into the mountains on a cold day, the village chief Wang Tiezhu said that he didn't know, but he went out in the morning when he saw his wife having dinner, and thought that he had gone to someone's house.

Dr. Duan also participated in the search for people in the deep mountains, because the red cotton jacket she was wearing was quite conspicuous, so on a big rock in the ravine, he glanced at it with a flashlight.

After examination, it was found that Wang Lin's mother's body was stiff, but there was a strange smile on her face, and there were no external injuries on her body, so Dr. Duan judged that she should have frozen to death.

After listening to it, Su Che and I both felt a little bizarre, a woman who has lived in the mountains all her life can't get lost, so why doesn't she go home, but will freeze to death in the mountains? I can't explain it.

Dr. Duan told us that the village chief later called the police, and after forensic examination, he also believed that his wife had frozen to death, and in the end, he had no choice but to bury his wife with the help of the villagers.

I sighed in my heart, I still remember how vicious that woman was to me at the beginning, I didn't think that the end would be so miserable, could it be that she met some ghost in the mountains?

After Dr. Duan finished speaking, he said lightly: "Originally, we thought that this woman would definitely return to her soul when she was seven, after all, she was wearing red clothes when she died, and everyone said that she would definitely become a ghost, but it didn't, counting, today is her day of five or seven, I don't know what the village chief ran to your house in the morning?" ”

Five-seven? I was stunned when I heard this word, according to our tradition here, the fifth seven days after death is when the soul leaves the world and goes to the underworld, on this day the family will burn some sacrificial supplies to see them off, why did the village chief go to my house?
