Chapter 66: The Origin of the Qilin
I don't know this woman, and I don't know where her intense hostility comes from, most likely because of the unicorn's hempness.
The chill ran from my head to my feet, but I didn't admit it, and straightened in place.
"You are the one my family originally chosen? It's not good! The Hundred Eyes King sneered.
Before I could reply, my grandfather's face was gloomy, "What do you mean by that?" This is what your family asked you to pass on? ”
The king of the hundred eyes was stunned, "Master Song of Maoshan wants to stand up for him?" This is my own meaning, and it has nothing to do with my family. ”
"Coming out? Of course, Song Shoucheng has to stand up for his grandson! "The store manager plays with the taste. Obviously, the Hyakmu King didn't know about my relationship with my grandfather.
"But what you said is too much, do you want to complain about your family, or do you think this kid is not worthy of your family?"
The Hundred Eyes King was surprised for a while when he heard this, but he quickly recovered and continued to say contemptuously, "There is nothing but the body of the Xuan Nether... I really don't know what adults like about him. ”
"Sister Baimu, don't say it! Don't talk about it anymore! Kirin said hurriedly.
This sudden woman seemed to feel good about herself, but she didn't know that at this time, the four bigwigs in Jiangcheng all looked bad. Or maybe she felt like they wouldn't do anything to her.
"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it, for the sake of the little unicorn's face." King Baimu waved his hand, "I can't stay in Jiangcheng for too long, my sister will come to visit you next time." ”
As he spoke, he jumped and disappeared, as if he was in a hurry, thinking that he was leaving.
"Old man Song, it seems that your in-laws don't treat your grandson very well, and even the maids around her dare to make a big fuss." The store manager seemed to be smiling, and he was also not good for the senses of the hundred eyes king.
Hu Ran said, "That adult is not like a difficult person, but the people around her are indeed too arrogant. ”
It's not just arrogance, it's just no one in sight. I'm still thinking in my heart, this hundred-eyed ghost is all this virtue, and my cheap wife doesn't know what it looks like.
"Humph! The matter was negotiated back then, if it weren't for Xiao Ming, I wouldn't have signed that secret marriage contract with her. My grandfather said indignantly, "Why do they look down on my grandson?" ”
"Forget grandpa, don't be angry, you can't be angry with this kind of person." I comforted.
People don't like me, and I don't necessarily like her! Everyone. As far as the previous remarks of the Hundred Eyes King were to put my dignity on the ground and trample on it, to be honest, I couldn't swallow this breath.
"Baba..."Qilin said weakly, he wanted to defend himself, but he couldn't speak, and he still didn't say anything.
"That one is big, and Song Boy is small? It's kind of interesting. Today's interest has been disturbed, and I have to go back, and let your good grandson tell you the rest. The manager walked away.
On the contrary, my grandfather looked confused, "Isn't Lord Ni going to settle accounts with me?" ”
"Mr. Song has a good grandson." Hu Ran also retreated after clenching his fists, and looked at me deeply, "Tell your grandfather those things!" Depending on his choice, I will wait for your news in Jiangcheng. ”
"Let's go! Go back and say. I said.
Grandpa didn't say much, looked preoccupied, and walked ahead with his hands behind his back. He has a lot of questions to ask me, and I don't have any questions to ask him, as if there is something else hidden in the matter of the unicorn.
The matter of Ermao's family was solved, and he went straight home. My grandfather led me to the small river at the entrance of the village. He first found a big stone and sat down, "Come, sit next to my grandfather, our grandfather and grandson haven't talked like this for a long time." ”
Oh, yes! It's been a long time since I've spoken like this. I remember when I was a child, my grandfather used to take me here to cool off, and at that time, this big rock was here. I sat next to my grandfather, who told me all sorts of bizarre stories.
Later, when I grew up, my grandfather became busy, and I preferred to run around with Ermao rather than listen to his stories.
Grandpa took out a cigarette gun from the yellow cloth bag he carried, he rarely smoked, but every time he smoked, he must be in a bad mood, "How did you meet Hu Ran?" How did you get to know Master Ni? ”
"Grandpa still remembers the guy who sold Chaos forty years ago?" I sighed, and then I recounted the story one by one.
From meeting Zhao Yunhai in the cemetery, to Qilin's talking, the abnormality of the landlady's grandmother and Uncle Chaos, to the chance encounter with Hu Ran, the store manager's forced buying and selling, etc., these bizarre events in Jiangcheng have all been explained.
"Cause and effect are really going to end, it's my fault, I shouldn't run away from it." Grandpa's brow furrowed more and more, and he took a hard puff of his cigarette.
Long! Grandpa spoke again, "Do you know why I took you to settle in Jiangcheng?" We didn't live in Jiangcheng, but in Nanhu. ”
"Nanhu?"
As far as I know, Nanhu is a city next door to Jiangcheng, not too far, but not very close either. At first, I guessed that my grandfather was hiding from the store manager, but now it seems that it is not because of this reason.
"Yes, South Lake. Our family moved after your mother's unplanned pregnancy. ”
This time it was my turn to frown, my grandparents have been silent about my mother's unexpected pregnancy, even if I took the initiative to ask my father's news, they would divert the topic.
Because of my grandparents' favor, from childhood to adulthood, it was not difficult for the family to live, and after so many years of adaptation, I didn't care much about this matter.
My mom kept giving me the reply that my dad was dead and I didn't have a dad.
"It's not an ordinary person who made your mother pregnant, and it can even be said that it's not a person..." Grandpa's expression was a little distorted at this moment, even painful, and he grabbed the cigarette gun in his hand, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "I hurt your mother!" The old woman always said that sooner or later something would happen to me in this business... As a result..."
"Boom!" My heart was pounding. During this long time, I also had a reverie about what my father looked like. What kind of ruthless existence has abandoned my mother, and even more abandoned me, and I am resentful of this.
However, I never thought about it... My father wasn't human. This news suddenly exploded in my mind, my dad is not human! What the hell is this? If it hadn't been for my grandfather who told me about this, I would have slapped him to the ground.
"The old woman said that she gave you the bell I put at home. This imitation of the soul bell was actually put down on purpose, for fear that that bastard thing would turn back. If I hadn't gone out to run errands, I would have cramped him! "The blue tendons on my grandfather's forehead burst out, and the cigarette gun struck the bluestone.
"We moved to Jiangcheng to hide from him?" I asked softly, "With your abilities, I didn't think about it... Catch that... Guy? ”
Grandpa sighed heavily, "Catch? How to catch? He is very cunning, and he is not weaker than me. I couldn't stay at home forever, and we settled down after we moved, and it took 20 years. ”
"Twenty years ago, when I found out that your mother was pregnant, I was furious. Even advocating for your mom... Beat you off, I hope you don't blame grandpa. ”
Speaking of which, he looked lonely, and I didn't blame it in my heart. My mom is pregnant, and my dad isn't human yet. That said, I'm a freak. What's more, my mother is still a yellow flower girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, and having children before marriage is a big scandal in the township.
My grandfather only has a daughter like my mother, so of course I have to think about her. Mainly, I have memories of beating me, and I know how good my grandfather and grandmother were to me.
"You are the son of a ghost, it is contrary to common sense that humans and ghosts are combined, and the chance of being able to conceive a baby is pitiful, but your mother not only conceived you, but also let you be born safely.
He even didn't hesitate to quarrel with us about it, saying that the child was innocent. She's stubborn! I am more stubborn than me, and I can't pull back ten cows for what I believed, how did I raise such a girl? Grandpa shook his head helplessly, and a sparkle of light flashed in his cloudy eyes.
My nose was sore, I really don't know how much my mother has been wronged for me, and how much she has suffered and how much she doesn't understand. I don't know how she survived all these years, but I know that she must be very bitter, very bitter!
"Me! There is no way. Who let me have only such a daughter, your grandmother and I can only follow your mother's wishes. Moving to Jiangcheng is also to stay away from those criticisms, this kid..."Grandpa took a puff of his cigarette and continued.
"Don't look at your mother's temper, beating you with a stick at every turn, scolding you for running around. I'm even more afraid that you will cause trouble and lose your life, and I can't wait to tie you to the house, she is too precious to you. ”
"Lost your life?" That's an exaggeration, isn't it? I haven't had any serious illness since I was a child, and I'm very healthy, otherwise I wouldn't be able to run around with Ermao, and I was very puzzled by my grandfather's words.
"I know what you're thinking, but don't forget... You're different from other kids. ”
I was shocked to the fact that I was different from other children, but I didn't find any difference since I was a child, and that's the weirdest part.
"You are the son of a ghost, but you went through the pregnancy of October smoothly. This is not recognized by heaven and earth, if you are serious, you will not live to be ten years old. My grandfather stared at me and said, "Before the age of ten, I will definitely die, and natural and man-made disasters are possible." ”
"I also confessed this matter to your mother, but your mother said that even if you are only ten years old, you must let you see the wonderful world."
"Mom—" I felt bitter in my heart, I owed her so much.
"Do you remember when I asked you to kowtow to your ancestors? It was your mother who knelt down and pleaded, and I thought of this solution, wanting to see if I could let you learn the magic to change your life. It's a pity..."
"It's a pity... I can't understand my mother's kindness, it's me who failed her, and I'm sorry for her. "I hugged my head and cried, as if I saw the picture of my mother kneeling and begging my grandfather, but what about me? only knows how to be playful, and even says very heavy words to break her heart.
I hate myself for being ignorant, I hate myself for not understanding my mother's mind.
"That's... What the hell am I again... And how did you live to be in your twenties? I barely looked up.
At the age of ten, my life span was only ten years, but I was safe and sound for more than twenty years.
"Just when I had nothing to do and resigned myself to fate, your daughter-in-law found me, found our family, and said that there is a way to save you, but I need to promise her a condition." Justice.
"Kirin's mother," I muttered, it turned out that she had been here at that time, but I didn't know it.
"What did she offer? Why did she save me? ”
"She wants to marry you and have a ghost in your belly." Grandpa said, "I didn't want to agree, since your mother's incident, I have lost my affection for these ghosts, let alone any ghosts." ”
But she doesn't know how to know that you won't live to be ten years old. I didn't expect that not only my daughter didn't escape, but my grandson didn't escape either, why do you suffer such a crime. "Grandpa Qi Qiran, "I've been thinking that I hurt you!" ”
I couldn't help shaking my head, this thing is a foregone conclusion, who can blame me? No one can blame it, but the bitterness in my heart is even stronger.
"In the end, I had no choice but to be a dead horse doctor, gritted my teeth and concluded a secret marriage for you, and planted a ghost fetus for you while you were sleeping, and she never came again, and you also passed the hurdle of ten years old."
"But she said that the awakening of the ghost fetus should be postponed for another three years, and now it's early!" Grandpa's eyes flashed, "Don't let me know if she's playing any tricks, otherwise she won't have a good time fighting for this old life!" ”
The relationship between my grandfather and my mother is very clear, but they each take what they need, and to put it mildly, they use each other. My grandfather wanted to use her methods to help me stay alive, and she was prepared for a different kind of thing.
"Nope! Don't blame Ma Ma, it's... Someone woke me up early... I won't, I won't hurt Baba ... Kirin won't..."
Listening to his aggrieved words, the tone seemed to cry, and his heart was even more panicked, "Qilin is good, Dad knows, knows that Qilin won't hurt me, don't be nervous." ”
In less than a month, this little ghost has become an integral part of my life, and if he tries to disadvantage me, I will probably die. So, I believe in Him.
"Woo woo, baba, the unicorn is scared! Don't blame Ma Ma for being good or not, Ma Ma is really good, and Ma Ma won't hurt Poop. ”
I don't talk about it, I haven't met, and I don't want to judge. But the king of Hyakmu has left an extremely bad impression on me, and by the way, he doesn't treat his cheap daughter-in-law very well.
"What the hell is she all about?"
Grandpa smiled bitterly, "What's the matter?" If I had known that she was so big, I wouldn't have made any secret marriage contract. I don't know if it's right or wrong. ”
I could see that my grandfather didn't want to dwell on this issue, and he didn't want to tell me who she was, which would only make me more troubled. I didn't ask.
"Your grandmother and your mother and I all hope that you can live like an ordinary person, not to mention how outstanding and excellent you are, it is enough to be healthy and healthy, and God will not fulfill people's wishes." Grandpa put his hands behind his back, "I already expected such a day when I laid the seal for you, but I still can't accept it." ”
I was silent, my grandfather put a lot of effort into it, and finally I set foot on this road, which is a road of no return.
"It's man-made, since you don't have a choice, you can only break through, we are a big man, and we can't lose the face of the old Song family." I grinned.
Grandpa was pleased, "It's good that you can think like this, but I'm afraid that your mother won't be able to turn around." ”
