As he was spinning his mind, he heard footsteps at the top of the stairs, accompanied by voices. Around the corner, I saw a middle-aged fat woman walking in front, followed by a woman in her thirties, wiping her tears. I only heard the middle-aged woman still persuading: "Don't be too sad, although your father is living hard at the bottom, as long as you accumulate more filial piety in the future, it will get better." ”

After saying that, the two of them had gone downstairs, but they entered the inner room, and after a few minutes they came out again, and the girl had stopped crying, and even bowed three times to the staircase with a reverent face, and then was ready to step out of the door. The middle-aged woman glanced at us and said, "Wait a little longer, Aunt Mei needs to recover, and Granny Zhang will call your name in a while." ”

When the two of them went out, about two or three minutes later, they heard an old woman's voice upstairs asking, "Is Huifen here?" "I was very surprised, I sat here with my mother for less than a quarter of an hour, and the upstairs actually knew that we were coming?

My mother didn't have a little discoloration, she got up and was about to leave, and after thinking about it, she grabbed me and whispered, "Wish, you go up with me." ”

nodded, since you came, there is no reason to go up and find out. I want to see how "magical" this Aunt Mei is.

The wooden staircase was about a little old, and I thought about it crunching, and after turning the corner, I looked up and saw a dark wooden door at the end of the staircase, and the light in the staircase was dim, which looked a little weird.

However, creating an atmosphere must be a necessary skill for the goddess, and the external environment and incendiary words can convince the blind people who come to the door. Walking to the platform in front of the door, I saw my mother bow to the door first, and then asked softly: "Aunt Mei, Granny Zhang, can we come in?" ”

It's still the old woman's voice: "The girl next to you didn't salute the door god." ”

My mother immediately turned back to me and winked at me. I had no choice but to bend down, and as I straightened up, I heard the door click and open from the inside. So my mother reached out and pushed the door, but only pushed it to a position where one person could pass and got in, and I frowned and followed behind her. As soon as I entered, I smelled a strange smell, it was very bad, and the room was dark, and I found that there were two rare figures in the corner after looking for a while.

One sitting, one standing.

I saw my mother take two steps forward and fall to her knees, and when I looked closely, I realized that there was a futon there.

The old woman shouted there again: "Why doesn't the girl kneel?" ”

I sneered, kneeling to the heavens and the earth, kneeling to my ancestors, kneeling to my parents, why should I kneel to a goddess? There is also an old woman next to him who is a fox and a fake tiger, which is really ridiculous.

This time, my mother didn't come to ask me, but bowed her head and said, "I'm here to close it." ”

"But......" The old woman was about to speak, but was stopped by a shrill voice in the darkness: "Okay, Mrs. Zhang, save those courtesies." Unexpectedly, the old woman who was still chattering just now immediately changed her attitude and responded politely: "Okay, Aunt Mei." ”

It turned out that the woman sitting here was Aunt Mei, but this voice was really uncomfortable to listen to.

I only heard her open her mouth again, but it was: "Huifen, it's been another year, I calculated that you will come to the door today, but then lock up the surviving person?" Mom's lips moved, and she nodded without making a sound.

I secretly praised my mother in my heart for being alert, and I knew not to tell what happened a few days ago. What a goddess like this is best at reading words and sayings, getting limited information from your words, and then slowly guiding you to say things.

However, the old mother's sad look had actually revealed some basic information to the other party, and sure enough, I heard Aunt Mei's thin voice say slowly: "Look at your complexion, something happened in the past two days." ”

My mother closed her eyes and didn't answer, but said, "Please ask Aunt Mei to be blind for me." ”

Obviously, I couldn't see it clearly, but I seemed to feel it, and Aunt Mei smiled gloomily, and the space quieted down. Before I could make any further observations, I heard the sound of a rope coming from there, and then I saw my mother sitting next to me, staring at me with a shocked expression.

I stepped forward and bent down to help, but found that my mother's body was very heavy, almost slumped on the ground and weak. I looked up from her gaze, and it was only then that I could see Aunt Mei's true appearance, and then I felt frightened.

That simply doesn't work...... To describe it by one person, it is more like a skeleton! She had never seen such a thin person, she was wearing a blue robe, combing her hair in a bun at the back of her head, on such a hot day, the robe was also long-sleeved and covered to the feet, and on the feet were a pair of black cloth shoes worn by the old generation. There was no flesh at all, but the skin was covered with bones, and there were many black spots. At this time, she was convulsing, and I almost thought she was going to die.

But in the next moment, she stopped her convulsions after a few violent tremors, and her half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and the phosphorescence in the darkness was very penetrating. A low, soft, sigh-like whisper: "Xiao Fen." This opening made my mother's emotions collapse, and I was shocked in my heart, this title ...... In my memory, only my father called like this.

Soon Aunt Mei spoke again: "You and I have been separated for more than ten years, but goodbye is separated by yin and yang, I can't stand you." ”

When my mother heard this, she instantly howled and cried, and shouted in a slurred voice while crying: "Chang Qing, why do you want to do this to me?" Why? Are you punishing me for not waiting for you to get along with someone? But I didn't cross the ruler line at all, except that I was under the same roof. ”

I was taken aback, I couldn't believe my ears, she said that she had not crossed a single cent with Uncle He for so many years? Aunt Mei, who seemed to have been taken by her "father", didn't believe it either: "You have been alone for so many years, how can you still keep your senses?" ”

My mother had already lost her senses, her eyes were dull and she sobbed and replied: "He Weiming was injured in his early years, and later he had a heart attack, and he saved my life that year and proposed to be with me, I can't forget my roots and completely die to you before I agreed." ”

It's really unexpected, how could you think that there are so many things between my mother and Uncle He? It's just that...... I turned my head to look at Aunt Mei in the dark, I was still suspicious of her. The father's address to the mother, how long he has been gone, may have been tested from the few times the mother came to the blind before, and at this moment she has not seen her say the key words. I even wondered if my mother would have been distracted by the previous visits and told her everything about the family.

After that, Aunt Mei was talking to her mother in her father's voice, although the tone was similar, but with her sharp voice, it always made people feel creepy. The more I listened to the side, the more my eyebrows frowned, and it was obvious that the words were being brought in a certain direction, and sure enough, after seven twists and turns, Aunt Mei asked vaguely: "Xiaofen, is that thing still there?" ”

My mother didn't react for a while, but I realized it and secretly pinched her palm. But seeing her bowing her head blankly, she didn't understand what I meant, and Aunt Mei said in her father's tone: "Xiaofen, I was wrong." Take that thing back, and later I found out that it was evil, and I was afraid that Xing Ke would make you and wish, but I can't come back......"

"Alright." I suddenly opened my mouth and interrupted Aunt Mei's words, and the other party seemed to be stunned, and looked at me with a calm eye. I was not afraid, and after helping my mother to stand up from the ground, I said: "Thank you Aunt Mei, let's stop here today when we are blind, and please work hard to send people down, my mother will leave first if she is emotionally unstable." ”

After speaking, he didn't care whether the old mother came back to his senses or not, so he dragged him to the door, and after walking a few steps, he heard the old woman shouting angrily: "Stop! Do you still know how to count? How can anyone be blind and leave without sending half of it? Aren't you afraid that the dead man will suffer in all kinds of things underground in the future? ”

As the words fell, the old woman had already caught up with her very fast steps and blocked in front of the door. After getting close, I finally saw this old woman clearly, not to mention her wide body and fat body, her face was also very round, but she had one eye that was blind, and the fake eyeball was embedded in the eyelids with some unknown eyeballs, and it was still glowing yellow in the dimness. As for the other eye, it was even more eerie in its light.

I forced myself to take a calm breath, a smile appeared on my face, I took out the money I had prepared in the morning from my pocket and handed it over, saying, "I'm sorry, I forgot the etiquette, Granny Zhang, please don't be surprised." ”

Mrs. Zhang stared at me fiercely and didn't come to pick up the money, the atmosphere became stiff, I was thinking about how the other party was willing to give up, suddenly my mother stumbled, and after I helped her down, she turned around and said, "Aunt Mei, it's my girl who doesn't understand the rules." It's also that I fell into the water yesterday, and I shouldn't have come blind with bad luck, I still have a little 'scattered', and I asked Aunt Mei to take care of him after sending him down for me. "At present, I also took out a stack of money at some point, and it is estimated that there are as many as 2,000.

Finally, Aunt Mei spoke, but she resumed her original tone: "Okay, I was originally surprised by your daughter, I was afraid that the dead would become a wandering spirit, since the old body has been locked up for you so many times, it can be regarded as fate, and the 'scattered son' who received you will definitely help you with this." ”

With her words, Granny Zhang was no longer embarrassed, but she just took the money in my hand and took it from my mother's hand, adding up to about 3,000 yuan. I couldn't suppress the irony in my heart, this industry is really fast.
