The house was a narrow wooden door, and the courtyard was made of stone and mud, and there was nothing special about other mountain village houses.

It's just that there is a mysterious palace-like house with a pointed tower in the courtyard. It's about three stories tall, and that's the most obvious difference between this house and the rest.

There was an old woman sitting in the doorway with a baby in her arms.

That old lady had a very strange appearance. The walnut skin of her face condensed into a wrinkled face. Only the eyes and nose are distinct features on the whole face.

Her eyes were dark and bright, without a trace of cloudiness, and if it weren't for such a face, everyone would really mistake her for a young man.

Her nose is high and straight, and it stands out on her features. Maybe it's the combination of her nose and eyes that makes her look a little distant, making it difficult for people to approach.

The baby in her arms was crying. She shook the baby in her hand as she looked at the young people who were approaching.

One of them is a female classmate who was a little girl before Du Zhiwu, she loves to talk and laugh, because she has a good relationship with Du Zhiwu, and she loves to ridicule Du Zhiwu.

When she saw such an old woman sitting in such a place with a baby in her arms. She turned her head to look at Du Zhiwu and Zhu Yanping, and said with a smile, "You husband and wife have gone around the village for a while, and you haven't remembered anything, just to see the child in someone's arms." Now there's a baby, why don't you go and see it? ”

Not to mention, Zhu Yanping really plans to go. Just when she was about to step across. The old woman looked up at her.

Their eyes met in the air, and at that moment, it was as if a lightning bolt plunged straight into her heart. She shuddered, and couldn't help but take a step back, if it weren't for Du Zhiwu behind her to support her, she would have fallen to the ground.

Du Zhiwuyi held her up, and then whispered to her, "Don't go to see this, we have seen dozens of children in the village, and we don't feel it, and this won't be." ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zhu Yanping to nod in agreement, and pulled her away.

It seems that after walking a long way, Zhu Yanping still kept turning his head, and said hesitantly, "Fifth, how do I feel that the child's cry is so familiar?" It's like this crying that I hear in my dreams at night. ”

When she said this, not only Du Zhiwu, but even other people laughed and said, "Pingping, you're stupid, right?" All children cry the same. Unless there is a slight difference between baby boys and baby girls. If it's all baby girls, it sounds like there's basically no difference. ”

Zhu Yanping just lowered his head, as if walking forward with difficulty.

She was dragged into the car by Du Zhiwu, and when everyone was eating in the car and talking about what they saw and heard in the mountain village today, only Du Zhiwu and Zhu Yanping didn't say a word.

Du Zhiwu occasionally teases Zhu Yanping, but Zhu Yanping doesn't seem to be here. Every once in a while, she would look at Du Zhiwu with annoyance and say, "Zhiwu, do you understand?" I really heard the child's crying, it was familiar, it seemed to be calling my mother. ”

Every time Du Zhiwu heard this, he would quickly block her mouth, and then said in a distressed tone, "That won't be our child." How could our children be picked up by such an old lady? Besides, look at the old lady's face, if there is a baby on the ground, will she pick it up? ”

Zhu Yanping raised his head, looked at her with tears in his eyes, and choked up, "Then what will happen if she is holding a baby?" ”

"What's going on?" When Du Zhiwu said this, he suddenly stopped and said, "There is only one possibility, that is, the child was born to their son or grandson." ”
