We walked along the road in the courtyard, and soon we came to the vicinity of the canopy in the courtyard, which was also close to the coffins lined up there.

The coffins were arranged in three rows and were neatly arranged. However, these three rows of coffins are not a full three rows, because some are already missing in one of them.

My heart was churning, I looked at the old lady walking in front, hesitated again and again, and then bumped into my courage and asked, "Excuse me, old man, I want to ask what these coffins are...... What's going on? ”

"This?" The old lady stopped and turned her head to look, and sighed, "When people are old, they always have to prepare these things. ”

"Prepare so much??" My eyes widened in surprise, "Are you kidding?" ”

The old lady glanced at me, "Hmph, did I say I used it myself?!" ”

"Not for your own use? That's so much! I felt a chill run down my back, "But, but is there anyone else here besides you?" ”

"Absolutely!" The old lady casually pointed to the coffin lined up there.

All of a sudden, I stopped, and stood there with my legs stiff, "This, how is this possible??" ”

The old lady glanced at me, "Do you want me to call them out?" ”

"Ugh!!" I couldn't help but take two steps back, "No, no!" "I'm blowing up all over my body right now, and I can't wait to turn around and run now.

As soon as I glanced at the doorway behind me out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly felt my wrist suddenly be clamped. I suddenly looked down and saw that it was the old lady who had put her hand on my wrist.

Her hands were dry and cold, like iron hooks, and she grabbed me tightly, and I subconsciously broke free, but I couldn't do it.

The old lady rolled her eyes and looked at me, "Are you a buddy of the Tan family?" ”

"No, it's not." I waved my hand.

The old lady nodded, "No one is here anymore......" Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly raised her head suddenly, staring at me deadly, and at the same time, she gasped, and her eyes instantly froze.

I was taken aback by her change and looked at her with some nervousness. The old lady's expression was only brief for a few seconds before disappearing.

"Come, come in and sit down." As she spoke, she pulled me into the house.

Due to the frosted glass windows, the lights in the room are actually much brighter than they look outside.

The furnishings in the house are very old and old, but judging from the style and layout of the furniture, it was very particular at the beginning.

I sat across from the old lady, her skin paling in the light.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, I really didn't know what to say, and the old lady just stared at me without saying a word.

I felt uncomfortable, so I had to start an awkward conversation, "Uh, senior, why do you use frosted glass in this room?" It's not transparent. ”

The old lady looked up at the window, "Because I don't like to see the sun." ”

These words made my heart tremble, and I subconsciously looked at the old lady's abdomen, until I saw a slight undulation, and I was a little relieved.

The old lady looked at me and smiled slightly, "Why do you think you're going to see the hell?" I'm not dead yet, old lady! ”

I was suddenly a little embarrassed, this old lady had sharp eyes, and she was by no means an ordinary person. Anyway, now that the matter has come to this, I'm sitting here, and there doesn't seem to be any danger, and my heart has quietly settled down.

Because of this, I became a little curious about the identity of the old lady. So I asked, "Old man, why do you live here?" ”

The old lady smiled bitterly, "People are useless, where can they live if they don't live here?" It's nice to have a place to sleep in the shade and rain. ”

I think this is very vague, could it be that she was driven out by unfilial children? But when I thought about it, I felt that it was not quite right, and with the means and shrewdness that this old lady had shown, it was basically impossible to force her to such an extent.

After thinking about it, I suddenly remembered the conversation I had with her just now, and I asked tentatively, "Old man, ......?"

But before I could finish speaking, I was interrupted by the old lady raising her hand, "Don't always be an old man, an old man, just call my mother-in-law." ”

"Okay," I nodded, changed my title and said, "Mother-in-law, what is your relationship with the Tan family?" ”

"The Tan family?" At the mention of the Tan family, the old lady's eyes instantly became a little cold, and she snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, it used to be." When it came to the Tan family, the old lady seemed to be gloomy.

I could hear that the old lady seemed to have something to say, so I boldly continued to ask, "Once?" Isn't that now? Mother-in-law, what does this mean? ”

"What do you mean? Even if it's not a rabbit dead and a dog cooking, it's a bird's bow. At this point, the old lady was already a little angry, and I heard the secret in it, and I quickly shut my mouth.

Soon, the old lady's face returned to normal, "In fact, the ruthlessness of the Tan family is not generalized, the eldest lady is still good to us." ”

"Miss?" I was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and subconsciously blurted out, "Aunt Tan? ”

The old lady nodded: "It seems that you have already seen her, if it weren't for the eldest lady to help her all these years, our old bones would have died!" ”

"We?" I asked curiously, "What?" Is there anyone else here? ”

Before I could finish speaking, the door to the back room creaked open. Another old man with a dry face poked his head out of the house, looked at me with dizzy eyes, and then at the old lady sitting opposite me, and said, "I heard a voice in the house, and I thought it was the eldest lady coming." I didn't expect a guest to come, is it a guy from the Tan family? ”

I was about to answer, but the old lady on the other side was the first to speak: "He's not, he's a lost person." Old sister, you go to rest first, I will say a few words to him, and send him down the mountain at dawn tomorrow. ”

The old man in the back room nodded and went back, I looked at the closed door and said, "Mother-in-law, it turns out that you are really not the only one here." ”

The old lady nodded and glanced out the window, "Now you know what those coffins are for, right?" ”

I was shocked and nodded. I suddenly felt a little desolate for this old man, and when I looked at the old lady again, I didn't think she was so terrible.

The old lady gradually withdrew her gaze, then stared at my face, and after a long while, she spoke, "You, are you from the Zhuo family?" ”

The old lady's words made me stunned for a moment.
