After eating, Zhao Nan offered his farewell.

"Miss Yuan, I'm leaving, thank you for your hospitality."

"It's just coarse tea and light rice, it's rare that Mr. Zhaonan doesn't dislike it."

"Ah, I suddenly remembered the contract I signed last time, and there are still some remarks that need to be told, please Miss Yuan go back with me." Walking to the door, Zhao Nan stopped.

Yuan Qian smiled and was stunned for a moment: "I still need it." ”

She looked at Yuan Xiaomei: "You take good care of grandpa at home, wait for me to come back." ”

"Hmm."

Yuan Xiaomei's attention has always been on the qin, even holding the rice bowl in her hand when she eats, her eyes are still looking there, she will rush over as soon as she finishes eating, guarding the qin wholeheartedly, where can she care about what her sister is doing, and when she hears the words, she just hums, and she doesn't wait to look back.

"Don't touch that piano."

Yuan Qianxiao didn't forget to tell when he went out.

The two walked out of the alley side by side, without saying a word all the way, and walked forward for a while, Zhao Nan pointed to a small forest in front of him and said, "Let's go over there." ”

Yuan Qianxiao was a little surprised: "Didn't you go to the antique store to see the remarks clause?" ”

"That's just an excuse."

Zhao Nan said unclearly, Yuan Qian's smile was like a deer.

It wasn't dark yet, and next to the grove in front of me was a river, a small stone bridge, and a stone bench next to it, like a good place to chat. Such an environment, two young men and women, it is impossible not to think about it, Zhao Nan is a tall and handsome young man, Yuan Qianxiao is a girl in her twenties, it is the moment when the spring heart sprouts, and when she suddenly hears this proposal, she is naturally a little affectionate.

But he heard Zhaonan say: "I want to know more about Granny Yin's situation." ”

The two of them walked over there and sat down at both ends of the stone bench, Yuan Qianxiao smiled dumbly, it turned out that he wanted to ask about Granny Yin.

"Why didn't you ask at my house?" She was delicate and felt that something was wrong.

"Miss Yuan, I'll explain this to you later, let's talk about Granny Yin first, when did she move here and what kind of person she is."

"Granny Yin moved here about 10 years ago. Well, it was when I was seven years old. It's been fifteen years now. ”

"Fifteen years ago, how old is my little sister this year?"

Yuan Qianxiao was a little surprised, how did she remember to ask the age of the little sister? She still answered truthfully: "My little sister is eleven years old this year. ”

"Oh, did that little sister ever ask you about the scene when Granny Yin moved in?"

"No, how can my little sister be interested in these things, she is usually playful, and Granny Yin is a very serious person, she is not very close to Granny Yin."

"Then it is impossible for the little sister to know the situation when Granny Yin came."

"That's nature."

"What kind of person is Granny Yin?"

"She is a very serious person, she is not smiling, and she has no contact with other people in the alley, but I heard her play the piano when I was ten years old, and I was fascinated, and she saw that I really loved the piano, so she taught me the art of the piano. When I first learned, my fingers were swollen every day, and she didn't take it seriously at all, and laughed at me for being delicate. She is such a serious person from the inside out, very strict with herself and others, even harsh. But now that I think about it, I'm really grateful that my mother-in-law was so strict with me. My parents died young, and if it weren't for my mother-in-law's strict requirements, I wouldn't have taken on the responsibility of taking care of the whole family. ”

"A very serious person, my little sister is really not close to her?"

"Not close, even a little afraid of her."

"So how long has it been since Granny Yin died?"

"It's been nine days until today, and I was still nervous on the first seven days, but nothing happened."

Yuan Qianxiao's tone was a little stunned, and it could be seen that she had deep feelings for Granny Yin.

"Where was the little sister when Granny Yin died?"

"You're taking care of my grandfather, Mr. Zhaonan, why do you keep asking about my little sister? What does this have to do with Xiaomei? ”

"Then do you know what kind of illness Granny Yin is suffering from?"

Zhao Nan did not answer, but still asked.

Yuan Qianxiao shook his head: "I don't know about this, my mother-in-law is very serious, she doesn't like to talk much, and she won't talk about these things about herself, or a month before she died, she told me about her guqin one after another, and probably told me about the contract of your antique shop." ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Qianxiao smiled a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhaonan, I deceived Miss Ye at the beginning, in fact, I have always known about this contract, and I also read the letter written by my mother-in-law." ”

"You don't even know what kind of illness Granny Yin was suffering from and died!"

Zhao Nan's voice couldn't hide his surprise.

Yuan Qianxiao felt strange: "What's the matter, Mr. Zhaonan, why are you so surprised?" ”

"Just when you were cooking, I asked my little sister when Granny Yin came, and she said that more than ten years ago, Granny Yin came here alone with a suitcase. I asked again how she died, and she replied that she was sick, and that she had problems with her lungs. ”

"What? She? How could she know? ”

Yuan Qianxiao was very surprised.

"Yes, Miss Yuan, you also think it is strange, don't you? Xiaomei is only eleven years old, what was Granny Yin like when she came, how could she know so much? Do you know it's an old problem in your lungs? How could she be clear about these details! ”

Zhao Nan's voice was very low, and there was a wind blowing on the river, Yuan Qianxiao felt chills all over her body, and she couldn't help but hold her arms with both hands, and her teeth gurgled.

"But, on the night of the soul, nothing happened, and my mother-in-law didn't come back."

"What if her soul didn't go at all?"

Zhaonan's words are like a bolt from the blue. Yuan Qianxiao was stunned.

"Didn't go, then what do you mean...... That's not a little sister...... Little sister she ......"

"I also want to ask, is it since Granny Yin's death, grandpa's state is very strange, haven't you noticed? Grandpa has always been scared of Little Sister, what does he want to tell you! "Zhao Nan induces a little bit.

Yuan Qianxiao carefully recalled the scenes after Granny Yin's death, and the more she thought about it, the more terrifying she felt.

She grabbed Zhao Nan's arm: "Yes, Mr. Zhao Nan, what you said is very right, it's really wrong!" Grandpa has been very weird lately, he used to love Xiaomei very much, but now he just wants to avoid Xiaomei, oh my God, I let Xiaomei and Grandpa be alone! ”

After she finished speaking, she shook her head vigorously: "No, no, my mother-in-law won't do this, how can she ...... How can it be ...... Is it possession? My mother-in-law and my grandfather have no grudges, so they shouldn't do anything to my grandfather, and they won't harm my little sister, right? Oh my God, I'm ...... I don't know how to face my mother-in-law when you tell me. ”

Yuan Qianxiao covered his face with his hands, and endured it patiently not to cry.

"You have to pretend that nothing happened, and what happened before and what will happen next. Granny Yin is just asking you to find the family heirloom guqin now, maybe she will leave when she gets the qin, and the little sister will be safe. ”

"I hope so, my God, I really can't think about it. Although I like my mother-in-law very much and respect my mother-in-law, I really can't accept the thought that she may now occupy my little sister's body. The little sister is so young, how can the mother-in-law do such a thing, it's too much. ”

Yuan Qianxiao's hands were clasped tightly together, and she could see that she was trying to control her emotions.

Granny Yin is her mentor and elder, and her little sister is her dearest sister.
