Chapter 24: Guarding the Tang Family
That night, after Zhou Xiaojuan was taken away from Aunt Huang's house by my father, she went out for nearly a month.
During this time, her grandmother was with her every day.
Zhou Xiaojuan asked her grandmother what was going on in the ancestral house of the Tang family, and her grandmother asked her what she saw, and after hearing everything Zhou Xiaojuan shrunk described, her grandmother's body trembled.
After she got closer to her daughter-in-law, she sighed:
"Xiaojuan, whether a woman has a good life in this life is fate."
Hearing this, my mother stared at the other party: "Mom, what do you mean by that?" ”
"As long as a woman gets married, she has no choice in this life, what kind of life she will become, it all depends on how the man treats you, a lot of things, just endure it, think too much, it's really bad."
My mom snapped in her heart.
She asked my grandmother: "Have you ever been in the ancestral house of the Tang family?" ”
"Ancestral home?" Grandma shook her head: "When I married Tang Sihai's father, the Tang family's light was no longer what it used to be, it was just a small mud house, and it was still leaking. ”
Grandma was right.
When she married my grandfather Tang Mengxiu, the Tang family had indeed fallen.
At that time, it was a problem of the times, grandpa worked hard, the family ate and drank, and grandma was a happy person with no complaints.
As for the Ximen Station that Zhou Xiaojuan said, she really hasn't been there.
However, for those strange things in the Tang family's ancestral house, grandma doesn't seem to be strange. However, she didn't say anything specific to Zhou Xiaojuan later, and talked about some things that a woman's life was not very good.
Zhou Xiaojuan was a little irritated when she heard this.
So, she said that she was hungry and wanted to steam an egg custard to eat.
Grandma listened and said, "There are no eggs in the kitchen, you want to eat them, I will go to the market to buy them now." ”
Zhou Xiaojuan said no, but grandma still insisted on going.
I was still lying in bed, and I had already woken up, although I didn't know what was going on, but I was waiting for two eyes to look at my grandmother and Zhou Xiaojuan, babbling in my mouth.
"I'll take the rice out to breathe, you can stay hungry for a while."
With a sigh, she left.
After that, Zhou Xiaojuan sat on the edge of the bed alone, looking at the black clouds outside and pressing the sky. This is not the rainy season, so it doesn't rain as often.
This has been raining for a month, and it seems that people's mood has fallen into underestimation.
Zhou Xiaojuan looked at the black clouds in the sky, and she waited for a thunderbolt to suddenly land. Who knew that the thunder didn't wait, but he heard a footfoot, approaching gently from behind.
Zhou Xiaojuan turned around: "Who are you?" ”
Behind her, a strange woman, wearing white pants and a goose-yellow blouse.
Xia Hong sat where her grandmother was sitting just now, and she also stared out the window: "Tang Xiaofan, she looks very cute, if you don't want her to die, you have to leave ......"
"What did you say?"
"The Tang family has a curse, all daughters will not live to be thirty years old!"
Hearing this, my mother was shocked.
"What did you say?"
Xia Hong said again: "There is a problem with the ancestral mansion of the Tang family, you have been in it once, you should have seen it, right?" The people of the Tang family are cursed, and their souls will remain in the world after death......"
My mom shuddered: "So what? ”
"Those ghosts stay in the world, and they have to suck the aura of the living to live, and this aura must also belong to their own blood relatives, so whenever the Tang family gives birth to a daughter, the aura will be sucked away little by little, and they usually don't live to be thirty years old."
Hearing this, my mother stood up all at once.
She looked at the place where I had just been lying, and then at Xia Hong: "Who the hell are you, who came here to say a bunch of nonsense, do you think I will believe you?" ”
Xia Hong also stood up: "That chicken-headed thing with a human body is a monster raised by the Tang family, and it has been guarding that ancestral hall for so many years, guarding that group of ghosts." ”
"Moreover, any woman who suspects disloyalty to the Tang family, that monster, will be sentenced to death!"
After saying this, Xia Hong saw that my mother's face was wrong.
"I'm not sorry Tang Sihai!"
"So, that weirdo didn't kill you, Tang Sihai was relieved. But that monster is staring at your daughter Tang Xiaofan all the time. ”
After Xia Hong paused, she said: "Tang family, the woman who is still alive is your daughter Tang Xiaofan, if you want her to live a little longer, there is only one way." ”
"What's the solution?"
"Come with me, I'll take you somewhere."
My mom stared at her, "Who the hell are you?" Why should I believe you? ”
"Believe it or not, it's all your freedom, but for the sake of Tang Xiaofan's life, you'd better think about it."
Saying that, she walked to the door, and when she was about to push the door and leave, she seemed to think of something, and turned around and said to my mother: "Let me remind you again, Tang Sihai looks honest and honest on the surface, but he is actually suspicious by nature, you should know it very well in your heart, as for how to choose, you think about it carefully." ”
After Xia Hong left, my grandmother came back with me.
Zhou Xiaojuan stared at me for a long time, until my grandmother cooked the egg custard and brought it over, and my mother shook her head: "I won't eat it, I have something to go out for." ”
After walking around the street a few times, Zhou Xiaojuan unexpectedly bumped into the male classmate again.
I haven't seen each other for more than a month, the other party is so haggard, the male classmate asked Zhou Xiaojuan what was going on, she shook her head and turned around and left.
A few months later, Zhou Xiaojuan was still gone.
When she was leaving, she just squatted down and looked at me, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and finally she got up and left without saying anything.
Hearing her say this, I sneered disdainfully.
"You can really excuse yourself, you didn't care about me for so long, and ended up making up such a story, do you coax ghosts?"
I spoke to her very unkindly.
This woman, I don't have any affection for her, so I don't need to leave her any affection.
Besides, her purpose in wooing me is also obvious.
When people get older, they are afraid of loneliness.
She may have wanted to have someone to rely on and take care of herself when she was old, and I became the best choice besides a nanny. If that's the case, her wishful thinking is really loud.
"Xiaofan, you misunderstood again, I didn't mean that!"
My mom wanted to explain to me, but I didn't want to know what she was doing when she came back, so I asked her: "If you really left with Xia Hong, then you haven't seen Xia Hong for so long, where have you gone, and what have you done?" ”
My mother knew about Xia Hong, which was beyond my expectations.
Since she said that she went with Xia Hong for me, then I would like to know where Xia Hong took her, what happened over the years.
