Chapter 476: Adult Lost Soul
Grandpa slept at my house that night.
When I got up the next day and finished breakfast, my grandfather was about to leave, but he was pulled by a woman in her fifties.
My mother recognized the woman, who was from Lifu Village, more than ten miles away from here. Li Fu Village and the old lady's village are next to each other.
The woman introduced herself: "I am Fu Xiaoyu from Li Fu Village. I know you old man, you are the famous Master Ma Yue Yunma. I heard about your reputation before I got married! ”
Grandpa didn't know what to do, but he still said politely: "Do you have anything to do with me?" ”
Fu Xiaoyu said: "I heard that your old man can invite the soul that is wandering outside to come home, I just want to ask you to help me get my son's soul back." ”
She must have heard that Grandpa would take the old lady to understand what was going on in her house. I didn't expect that last night's incident is now known to anyone. Maybe the family of the old lady who hid out last night talked about it outside.
Some things, once you get involved, will go on and on. In the past few years, people seem to have gotten used to treating him as a normal person. This time, when I had just met the old lady, people seemed to suddenly remember that there was such a magical old man nearby overnight. They naturally think of this person when they need it.
The folks in the countryside are different from the people living in big cities. In a big city, even if two families live next to each other, they may not be able to speak a few words all year round, let alone ask for something. Even if you ask for help, your neighbors don't necessarily help. If you have the ability but don't help, people will think that you have any prejudices about their family, and they will be embarrassed to meet in the future.
Grandpa used to say, oh, I'm sorry, I haven't done this kind of thing in a long time, I'm afraid I can't do it.
But this Fu Xiaoyu was found by listening to someone else's words, and the incident happened last night. If Grandpa refuses, not only will he feel sorry for himself, but other unrelated people will also privately say that Grandpa is stingy.
Grandpa had to ask her: "Looking at your age, my son is probably already of the age of marriage, right?" With such a big person, can he still lose his soul? ”
Grandpa was right. The thing of losing the soul and shouting the soul basically only happens to children. Because children are shallow and unstable. The adult soul and body have developed to the point of harmony, and this kind of thing almost does not happen without something special.
I once asked my grandfather why only children would cry out for their souls.
At that time, my family had not yet built a new house, and there was a pear tree in front of the house. Grandpa pointed to the pear tree and said that the soul of a child is like a flower on a tree, and a little wind and rain will break the ** and fall down. The soul of an adult is like a fruit that bears fruit after flowering, and no amount of wind or rain can blow it down from the branches. Either you poke it down with a penny, or wait for it to grow old and fall off on its own. Poking it down with a penny is a particularly serious external force. When it gets old and falls, it is the end of its life, and its soul naturally wants to leave.
If Fu Yaoyu's son really lost his soul, grandpa might be able to say that he was old and frail, and he couldn't fight such a bad ghost, so let her ask for another master.
Fu Xiaoyu said: "My son's matter is a bit complicated, please listen to me tell you from the beginning." ”
It's not just that Grandpa can't hold back and wants to go back early, Siyan has already run forward for more than a mile, maybe after waiting for a while and finding that Grandpa didn't follow, it ran back and circled around Grandpa.
After last night's incident, Mom's attitude towards Four Eyes has improved, but Four Eyes is still afraid of her.
Grandpa kicked Four Eyes lightly to get it to go away, and then said, "Say it." I'm listening. ”
Mom was more annoyed that others were looking for grandpa for this kind of thing, and when she saw Fu Yaoyu, she didn't invite her into the house to sit. Fu Xiaoyu stood on the floor like that and told her grandfather about her son's loss of soul.
Fu Xiaoyu said that she has experienced a great joy and a great sorrow in the past half a month. The great joy is that the son got married at the beginning of the month. The great compassion is that the son died on the wedding night, and died in the new bed with the daughter-in-law who had just entered the door.
As soon as she said this, her grandfather's emotions were touched, and he hurriedly comforted: "Don't be sad, if there is anything I can help with, I will definitely help." ”
Fu Xiaoyu wiped away a handful of tears and continued, in fact, she had expected this day, and the fortune teller told her that she was twenty-four years old and forty-eight years old. When she was twenty-four years old, her husband died, and she remarried to Li Fu Village with her son. She turned 48 years old this year, remembered the fortune teller's prophecy, and was afraid that something would happen to this son, so she wanted to rush through the happy event. She is trying to get her son married this year.
The son disagreed. He had a girl he liked, but the girl said he would wait two years before getting married.
Fu Xiaoyu thought that she couldn't wait, so she forced her son to marry another girl with death.
The son is a filial son, and after following her to Lifu Village, who remarried, he saw that she had suffered a lot for herself. With tears in his eyes, the son agreed to Fu Xiaoyu's request and married a girl he didn't like.
Fu Xiaoyu has never said why she forced her son to get married this year, for fear that her son would have a psychological burden. Moreover, the son has never believed in this, and if he knew that his mother forced him because of this, he would definitely not obey. He thought that his mother just wanted him to start a family sooner, like all other parents who urged their children to get married sooner.
On the day of the wedding, the whole family was beaming. Maybe my son wasn't happy, but he pretended to be happy that day.
Fu Xiaoyu knew in her heart that her son was just showing her.
If Fu Xiaoyu had asked her grandfather's opinion before her son got married, there would have been no troubles in the future.
Many people have asked their grandfathers about marriage. Grandpa's answer was, "It depends on whether the children like it or not." As long as the two of them work together, it doesn't matter what the eight-character aspect is. If the two are not in unison, it is useless to rematch the eight characters and match each other. He didn't even bother to listen to the person who came to report his birthday.
But at that time, no one persuaded Fu Xiaoyu so much. Fu Xiaoyu thought that she had done a good thing for her son.
All went smoothly on the wedding day. At noon, the wedding banquet was held, and the cave room was noisy at night, and the crowd dispersed in the middle of the night, leaving a couple to enjoy the candle night in the cave room.
Fu Xiaoyu happily added a lock to the outside of the new house, afraid that the newcomers in the house would suddenly run away.
That night, Fu Xiaoyu didn't sleep well, although she was too tired to help clean up and receive guests during the day. She secretly listened to the movement in the room.
That night seemed particularly quiet, so quiet that Fu Xiaoyu panicked for a while.
She comforted herself that her son and daughter-in-law were tired by the people in the cave room today, and she was not in a hurry to hold her grandson on this night. What's more, she added a lock outside, so that the two of them wouldn't sneak away.
