Chapter Thirty-Six: Grandma Wen's Abnormality
In the face of the old man's sudden crying, Lao Zhou and I were a little at a loss, after all, an old man in his last years suddenly cried in front of people, no matter what the reason was, it would always affect people's weakest nerves and make people sympathetic, so what can be done under sympathy?
After all, Lao Zhou and I are big men, so naturally I don't know what to say next, and I can only be at a loss when I do something.
Originally, I sensed that there was some lingering yin qi in this room, and I hadn't carefully discerned this yin qi, what exactly did it belong to The old lady cried, and all my thoughts were interrupted.
Lao Zhou is a guy with a softer heart, and his performance is more obvious than mine, and his eyes are red all of a sudden, except for saying to the old lady all the time: "Don't cry, don't cry" I couldn't say anything for a while.
Fortunately, the middle-aged woman followed into the house, watching the old lady crying, the two of us couldn't speak for a while, but interjected in the middle: "Grandma Wen, Zhao Ying is gone, everyone knows that you are sad but the school leader is here, how do you let others talk when you cry?" It's not easy for others to come so far away, so why don't you let others drink two sips of water? ”
While speaking, the middle-aged woman stood up, went to wring a handkerchief, handed it to Grandma Wen, and barely found two bowls that were still clean, and poured a glass of water for me and Lao Yiren.
In this process, Grandma Wen finally stopped crying and Lao Zhou reacted quickly, took out the 1,500 yuan from my hand, stuffed it into the old man's hand, and said: "Grandma Wen, this is a little bit of the school's heart, you can take it." ”
Grandma Wen looked at me with emotion, but she was embarrassed to accept the money.
Originally, in this kind of scene, I was the most indescribable person, but at this time, I suddenly couldn't help but speak, saying, "Yes, Grandma Wen, you can take this money." I just heard my aunt talk about the situation of your family, you must hide this money, if you are hungry and thirsty, ask the aunt next door to buy you something to eat and drink. Don't treat yourself badly, don't let your family find out. ”
"That's it, it's Grandma Wen, this young man is right, they can't let them find out about this money, either use it to play cards, or use it to spoil it." The aunt also said that at this time, she looked at me and Lao Zhou a little kindly, obviously sure that we are not bad people.
After all, this family is already a rare poor in this era, so there is nothing to worry about the 'thief' about this kind of person who has sent a sum of money to the door, what purpose can he have?
Perhaps, because of the moved, Grandma Wen began to shed tears again, she suddenly grabbed my hand, with a kind of strength that is obviously not the old man should have to stuff the money back into my hand, she has not spoken much, suddenly looked at me and Lao Zhou and said: "Two comrades, I can see that you are good people, you are good people, I don't want money, I am so old, money is useless, life is a day." It's just that our Zhao Ying died unjustly, if you want to help her avenge her, she will die unjustly. ”
"Oh, Grandma Wen Zhao Ying is sick, why do you say such things when you see people? Don't say it, carry the money" The middle-aged woman on the side obviously didn't hear such a thing for the first time, so she quickly persuaded the old man.
This attitude is natural, Zhao Ying's illness is not only agreed by these neighbors, but even her death report is clearly written, I don't know what kind of disease it is, but Lao Zhou said that this kind of disease is dangerous, and there are too many cases in which the cause of the disease cannot be completely investigated before the patient's death, which can only prove that it is not poisoning, not man-made injury, and generally will not be too deeply investigated.
In short, the death report said that it was about a disease of the heart, and this sudden death case is usually blamed on the heart.
Of course, this is my judgment, and there is no authoritative medical person to support my statement, in my eyes, Lao Zhou is definitely not an authoritative medical person, I always feel that this old man knows something about it, and the attitude of the middle-aged woman is naturally ignored by me.
Just as I was thinking about how to continue with this, and how to speak, a child came out of the next room and shouted, "Mom, Dad asked when you will come back to make dinner?" ”
Yes, it is almost time to cook dinner now, except for Zhao Ying's cold pot and cold stove at home, no one came back, and the rest of the people heard the sound of pots and pans, and the smell of food came The middle-aged woman was urged like this, smiled awkwardly, and could only explain to the three of us apologetically, and hurriedly went home again.
In fact, she was there, but I was not very good at talking When she left, Lao Zhou and I glanced at each other, I stuffed the old man back into my hand, and then pushed it back into the old man's hand with renewed strength and firmness, and then said to the old man: "Grandma Wen, you take the money first, no matter what, if you think that Zhao Ying's death is wronged, you can slowly tell us what's going on?" If there really is a grievance, we can see if we can help? ”
In the face of our attitude, Grandma Wu was puzzled, although she was old, I found that she was not confused, she looked at us in disbelief, and asked, "What do I say, can you believe it?" ”
At this time, Lao Zhou and I naturally couldn't easily expose the purpose, Lao Zhou hurriedly answered: "Zhao Ying is a very good classmate, she died suddenly, we feel sad, naturally we are also puzzled." Grandma Wen, besides, what is the need for you to lie as an old man? ”
Lao Zhou is really good at talking, he avoids the important and blames the problem on the old man's ability to lie, and does not follow the old man's words, so as not to make the old man have scruples, but not to say it.
I have to say that Lao Zhou's words relieved the old man's heart, and after receiving such encouragement, the old man made up his mind and said: "Our family Yingying is definitely not sick to death, it must be something that is harming her!" What I saw was that something was hurting her. ”
"What?" I didn't expect that I could get such an answer from an old man, and I couldn't control my emotions for a while, so I couldn't help but ask.
"You don't believe me?" The old man's expression instantly returned to a sad and helpless appearance.
Lao Zhou immediately said: "It's not that I don't believe in the old man" When he said this, Lao Zhou glanced at me, and our tacit understanding made me know what he would say next, I nodded my head slightly, and after Lao Zhou understood, he continued: "Even if the people in the whole world don't believe that something is harming Zhao Ying, but he definitely believes it." ”
"For what? What should he believe for? For this matter, I begged Yingying's parents to find the Taoist priest, but the Taoist priest said that I was entangled by Yingying's soul, and I sang and made a mess at home, so forget it. Could it be that he is also a Taoist priest? Obviously, once it is really affirmed, it is this Grandma Wen who doesn't believe it.
And after knowing that she had such an experience, I was relieved, after all, in this society, there is indeed this phenomenon, relying on this to bewitch and cheat people's money, many old ladies have been fooled once, and they will naturally be vigilant.
In the face of these, naturally I don't need to speak, Lao Zhou said: "He is also a Taoist priest, but he doesn't rely on this to live but his family has ancestral skills, he understands these but there are some family reasons, and he will not act easily." This matter, Grandma Wen, you see that it has already happened, we don't say that we will definitely be able to solve this matter, but what if it can? ”
Lao Zhou's speaking skills are basically invincible, and she dispelled Grandma Wen's doubts in just a few words, she thought that it was also, anyway, she said that so many people had heard it, and everyone's attitude was that she was an old man's 'superstition', so it didn't matter if she said more to the two of us, so she wiped away her tears, stabilized her mood a little, and began to tell us about it.
"I said that our family Zhao Ying was killed because I was an old man, I slept lightly, and I didn't know what Lu Dao was for these years, and I was gradually able to see those things. Do you know what the Tao is? The year before, the old money in the alley next door died, didn't I go to the mourning hall? I have known Lao Qian for decades, so I thought about my old friend, kept vigil, gave him one more ride, but my body was not good, I fell asleep in a daze at night, and I saw Lao Qian standing alone on the side of the coffin" Grandma Wen said this, looking at us with some vigilance and some hope.
In that case, it's like we're afraid that we won't believe it.
Lao Zhou didn't answer, and gave Grandma Wen an encouraging look to signal her to continue, if he wanted to change before, even if he had this attitude, it must be to perfunctory and comfort the old man, but for him who had only met a group last night, this attitude was very natural.
But what I think is not so simple, I seem to have grasped a little bit of something, it stands to reason that the old man's yang fire is lower, accidentally, I just said accidental, in very special circumstances, it is very possible to be able to see 'friends over there'.
But Grandma Wen's tone seems to be, she can often see it? What does this mean? Does this have anything to do with Zhao Ying's death?
