"Xiaotong's child is the granddaughter of our old couple, her mother died in childbirth, she was born with a birthmark on her neck, the girl's home is not good-looking, and she is a mute, we are worried that she will not be able to find her in-law in the future, so then her father bought a boy back, that is, Archie, who can be both a son and a son-in-law. But later, her father also fell ill and died. We were two old people who grew up with two children.

The two of them knew that they were going to be husband and wife when they grew up, and their relationship has always been very good, and if you want to blame the annoying teacher, we originally thought that it would be good for the two of us to go to junior high school, come back to fish, and get married when we are older, and we can both see our great-grandchildren born in our lifetimes.

But the teacher didn't say that Archie was a student material, and asked him to go to high school in the city, and he took some exams. Then he told us that he wanted to go farther away to study, of course we didn't agree, but Xiaotong felt sorry for him and secretly gave him money without telling us, and he left overnight.

I left and never came back.

At the beginning, I also wrote a letter to Xiaotong, Xiaotong also saved money to send him tuition and living expenses, and then slowly, there was no letter, but my granddaughter was stupid, we all said that he would not come back, she didn't believe it, and still sent him money as usual.

Later, he came back with a phone call and asked someone to tell Xiaotong not to wait for him, he would not come back here. Also, how can a person who has gone out and seen the world be willing to come back to be a fisherman and marry a mute. ”

The old woman's voice was so choked that she could barely speak, and she wiped her tears from the corner of her clothes, while the old man on the side squatted silently in the corner of the kitchen and smoked a dry cigarette, and the fireworks flickered in the darkness, and in this lifeless room, it seemed even more lonely.

Unexpectedly, the female ghost Xiaotong had such a sad story before her death, Jiang Qiao instantly sympathized with the female ghost a little more, and she asked softly: "That... How did Xiaotong die? ”

"Since the Achito people broke up, Xiaotong has been crying, crying all the time, the food is not delicious, the whole person has lost weight, we all persuaded her to forget it, that Archie is not a good person, isn't it good-looking, let's find another one for her. She didn't listen, and she didn't know where she bought a red wedding dress, saying that she would wear it to find Archie.

Oh, how can we rest assured that she will go like this, just watch her and not let her go, but this child... One night, while we weren't paying attention, we ran out secretly, rolled down the mountain, and when we came back, my body was not good, and I struggled to support it for two years. Let's go.

My granddaughter, life is hard, we two white-haired people send black-haired people, and no one will send them to the end when they die... The old woman snorted a handful of snot and tears, and even beat her chest with her hands when she spoke of sadness.

"Mother-in-law... Don't be like this, you won't feel at ease if you let Xiaotong go like this... Jiang Qiao took out a tissue to wipe the old woman's tears, and Jiang Li on the side interjected:

"So, you guys did it for Xiaotong? Also use this comb as a token. Jiang Li played with the comb in his hand.

The old woman nodded: "Yes, we can't let Xiaotong go uneasy, doesn't she want to marry Archie, she can't marry when she is alive, and she will marry her when she dies, but she has fulfilled her wish." When the old woman said this, she was stubborn.

"Why did you choose this comb?" Jiang Qiao asked.

"This comb is Archie's belonging, and we bought him with this comb with us, and it's the only thing his parents left him. However, he was four years old when he was bought, and he was afraid that he would see the comb and recall something, so we kept the comb hidden, and I guess he didn't even know about it.

The master of the practice said that if we wanted to find Archie, we had to use his personal belongings, but at that time, we threw away all his things because we were angry, and we forgot about this comb for too long, so we used it. The old woman said truthfully.

"So what now?" Mao Daxin asked in a low voice: "The question now is whether Xiaotong is looking for the wrong person." ”

Jiang Li glanced at Mao Daxin and did not speak.

"Mother-in-law, do you know how to find Archie?" Jiang Qiao asked.

"We don't know where to find him, but I... I have a picture of him, you can see if you can find it, by the way, I still have his ID card. The old woman went back to the back room and took out a small bag, from which she pulled out a few photographs and a stack of papers, from which she turned out a photograph and a worn-out white paper.

"ID card?" Jiang Qiao was a little surprised.

"This was done when Archie went to study, and Xiaotong said to keep one at home just in case."

Jiang Qiao took the blank paper and the photo, and was a little ridiculous, the ID card that the old woman said was actually just a copy.

Jiang Qiao first looked at the white paper carefully, this copy According to the old woman, this ID card should have been handled by him after the college entrance examination, it was already a little blurry, but it could be seen that Archie's full name was Chen Siqi, and there was also his ID number on it, and it should not be difficult to find it if it was handed over to Mao Daxin to check.

Jiang Qiao handed the copy to Mao Daxin, and then observed the photo.

"Huh?!"

Mao Daxin was looking at the copy, and suddenly heard Jiang Qiao let out a surprised exclamation, and hurriedly leaned his head over to look at it, it didn't matter if he saw it, he jumped up directly, and looked at Jiang Qiao in surprise: "This... This... It's not... ”

was about to blurt out, only to feel that someone hit him hard in the waist, and in a blink of an eye, it was Jiang Li. Mao Daxin swallowed the second half of the sentence back in a daze, and sat down impatiently.

Jiang Qiao glanced at Mao Daxin and Jiang Li's reactions, and had a number in his heart, it seemed that the two of them thought the same as his own.

The three of them hurriedly said goodbye to the old couple, and when they said goodbye, Jiang Li suddenly asked, "Mother-in-law, who did this ritual of yours?" ”

The old woman was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "Yes... It was introduced by someone from our village, and it was said that it was from the outer city, so it wouldn't be any harm to my granddaughter. ”

"Oh no, I just think... There is no harm, don't worry, your granddaughter will definitely have a good baby if she has something on her mind. Although Jiang Li's words were for the old woman, his eyes went over the old woman's head and into a corner of the house.

Jiang Qiao knew that Xiaotong's ghost was there.

She won't follow them back to Jiangcheng anymore, after walking such a long way, it's time for her to go home and rest well. After this is over, what awaits her will be another and longer road.
