417, the weird old woman
I listened to the old woman's words, and my whole body was shocked, "floating on the river......
How could I float on the river? I was lying in a coffin before, so how could I float on the river?
"Yes, you are floating on the river. Moreover, there are a lot of wounds on your body, but your body is so strange, so many scars, you have recovered in a month, no scars are gone, it's really weird! It's weird! When the old woman said this, her cloudy eyes were still looking back and forth over me, and there was an incredible expression on her face.
Recovered in a month?
I remember that I did have some self-healing ability before. Reaching out and stroking his cheek, he found that there was really no scar on his face. And the skin is more delicate and smooth than before, not at all like an adult's.
I don't know what happened to me "after I died", but one thing I know for sure is that I'm still alive, just getting smaller. As long as I live, I will still be able to see Shoubai Shouyu, and as long as I know that they are alive and well, I will be relieved. As for Fan Shou......
The image of him picking up the dagger and poking it into my chest made my heart tingle and my breath tightened. I was chilled and terrified to be killed by the hands of a loved one, whether it was voluntary or not. Even now when I think of him, I think of him sticking a dagger into my chest. I can't get past this hurdle, so I can't forgive him at the moment.
There are also rosΓ© and plantains......
Originally, I wanted to get revenge, but when I think about it, I don't have that ability at all. If I see that Shoubai Shouyu is fine, I will be relieved, and I will stay away from them in the future.
"Son? What do you want? "Just as I was wandering, the old woman stretched out her withered hand and shook it in front of my eyes.
I came back to my senses, looked at her, and met her wrinkled, cloudy eyes for a while, until I saw the kind gaze in her eyes, and my heart slowly warmed up, "Thank you for saving me." β
As I spoke, I bent my knees and kowtowed respectfully to her.
When she saw me kowtowing to her, she was flattered and hurriedly pulled me up, "Don't kowtow, this is also a convenient thing to save you, and you don't need to make such a big courtesy." Get up. β
I didn't get up at this time, but kowtowed respectfully to her three times before I got up.
When she got up, she stretched out her hand full of wrinkles and age spots, stroked my cheek, looked at my face and asked, "What is your name, son?" Why are you floating in the river? The point is, are you still wearing adult clothes? β
Seeing this loving old woman, I remembered my grandmother and grandmother, who had been deceased for many years, and who loved me so much during their lifetimes. My heart was sour, I cried, but I replied to her with a smile, "Old woman, in fact, I can't remember anything...... Probably, it may be that I have been soaking in water for a long time and have hurt my head. β
I lied to the old woman because I didn't want to tell her about my complicated background. I was afraid that she would be scared for a while, after all, it was incredible that I had suddenly changed from a twenty-something to a twelve-thirteen year old. The second is that I want to start over. Whether I can grow into an adult again or not, I don't want to be so tired anymore.
I am a cowardly woman who has no lofty ideals, and only thinks that the people I love and those who love me will be safe. Peach doesn't like me, so she will let Fan Shou kill me with his own hands. I can't get the blessing of Fan Shou's mother, and I am destined to have no good results with him. She will design to harm me once, and she will also design to harm me a second or third time, and Fan Shou is her son, no matter how vicious Taohong does, he can't do anything to her. Therefore, the people who suffer the most in the middle are me and the children.
As long as I die, the rosΓ© will not be spoiled again, and the children will live a stable life, if this is the case, it doesn't matter if I don't grow up for the rest of my life.
"Oh, it's possible, when you're unconscious, you're screaming about a headache. Hey, what a poor boy. If you really can't remember who you are, you can live with me in the future. The old woman didn't doubt me at all, and pulled me to the edge of the bed with a smile, reached out and patted the back of my hand and smiled.
"Wouldn't that bother you too much?" I'm a little embarrassed, after all, this old woman doesn't look easy, I live here, and eating and drinking are a lot of expenses.
The old woman smiled: "Don't bother...... Don't bother, I've been alone since my children grew up and left the village, and I've been alone for twenty or thirty years, lonely ......."
Speaking of this, the smile on her face was closed, she looked up at her room, sighed and said, "I'm alone, I'm very afraid of sleeping, because I'm afraid of getting up from sleep, and no one around me can see it...... Woohoo......"
The old woman began to cry when she said this, and then lifted her patched girdle and wiped her tears.
The empty nesters are the most pitiful, I didn't wait to be filial to my grandmother and grandmother, they died, and now when I see this old woman, my heart is soft, and I decided, "Old woman, if you don't dislike me, from today on, I will be your granddaughter." I want to repay you well, take care of you, and be filial to you. β
When the old woman heard this, her hand wiping her tears paused, and she slowly turned her head to look at me, "Son, what you said is true?" β
"Hmm. As long as you don't dislike it. β
"Of course I don't dislike it, it's too late for me to be happy!" The old woman grabbed my hand excitedly, and her eyes were filled with tears.
In the next six months, I really became her granddaughter, and she named me Jindou. The reason why she called me Jindou was that she thought that as soon as I came, the soybeans she planted would be harvested, and it happened that her surname was Jin, so she called me Jindou.
Originally, I thought that her Black Miao was related to the Black Miao people in Vietnam, but later I learned that this was not in Vietnam at all, but on the Sino-Vietnamese border, in a small mountain village called "Watou Village". Most of the people here are Black Miao and Zhuang people. But although it is a person from a village, because of the different ethnic groups, a small river was opened in the middle of the village, and on the left side of the river were people of the Black Miao nationality, and on the right side of the river were people of the Zhuang nationality. Locals call Zuo Miao and Right Zhuang.
Although they are separated, the people of these two ethnic groups still have a good relationship, and every time there is a Chinese New Year, they will gather together and go to the tile head (a square made of gray tile floor) in front of the village to sing and dance, and have a good time. Here, I have a very happy life.
As for why I came here from Vietnam, I guess I floated down the river to get here.
In the past six months, I have not grown in height or weight, but my hair has grown very long. In this village, everyone treats me well. In particular, several villagers with sons love to run to Grandma Jin's house, repairing houses and delivering things to us. I'm not really a child, so I naturally know what they mean, so I'm a little troubled, because it's hard to catch up, and it's hard to say. Fortunately, Grandma Jin prevaricated them with me before I was old, so I was able to temporarily exchange for some stable life.
I actually really want to leave here to guard Bai Shouyu, but I don't have any money at all, and Grandma Jin is not in good health, so I suffered from rheumatism ten days after I woke up, and it is very inconvenient to move, and I can't do without someone to take care of me.
Grandma Kim was a kind old woman, but at the same time she was a strange old woman, for example, she never ate meat, she would not allow me to eat it, and every night she hardly slept and sat at a broken table with a sieve and counted the beans. One count is a whole night. Sometimes I call her, and she ignores me. When I asked her the next day, she said she didn't know anything.
She was like this again tonight, and I looked at the rickety back with her back to me counting beans, and I was really a little cautious.
Covering her with a broken blanket, she suddenly sat up straight and muttered to herself, "One less...... One less! β
After saying that, he "slammed" the sieve on the broken table, and then groped for the crutch next to the table, and limped out of the house.
Seeing this, I lifted the blanket and chased out, "Mother-in-law, where are you going?" β
But when I chased out, I saw Grandma Jin limping towards the river in the middle of the village, I called her, but she ignored me. I was worried that something would happen to her, so I hurried after her. Because I have short legs now, I can't walk or run fast, so I've been a dozen steps behind her, and I can't catch up with her.
When I followed her to the river out of breath, I saw that she suddenly put down the crutch in her hand, and muttered the sound of "coo-goo" in her mouth, this voice suddenly tightened in my heart, this is clearly the sound of calling Gu, could it be that Grandma Jin can also do Gu magic?
But she muttered several times, and I didn't see any Gu things appearing, could it be that I was wrong?
Just when I was wondering, suddenly my shoulder was slammed, I was about to cry out in fright, a hand covered my mouth again, and then a familiar male voice came from my ear, "Little girl, don't speak, wake up this old woman, she will die." β
