Chapter 294: It's hard to tell the truth from the fake
It turned out that it was Yin's mother who was pretending to be a ghost, and even if she saw through the truth, I still couldn't believe it, because I remembered that Yang Rui had told me before that she overheard the old lady Yin and Wang Xilin discussing how to deal with Lin Zemu in this room. , Could it be that the old lady Yin is playing ghosts, she is acting like this, but what they said at the time was to deal with Lin Zemu, even if Yin Ma is acting, how can she act in a play with such content
For this reason, the more I think about it, the more I feel that this thing is extremely strange and not so simple. However, at this time, Yin Ma is indeed "acting", which is what we have seen with our own eyes, and it is absolutely true.
I really couldn't figure out what was going on, so I looked at Yang Rui, who was like me, with an unbelievable look.
I immediately thought that when Yang Rui eavesdropped, she didn't see Old Lady Yin and Wang Xilin, but only heard their voices. From this point of view, it really can't be ruled out that it is still the Yin Mother who is making trouble.
No, there must be a problem here, I have to ask clearly.
I settled down, so I resolutely pushed the door in, and my mother suddenly saw me and trembled. I feigned surprise and asked, "What about the old lady?"
Yang Rui also walked in, standing with me, looking at Yin Ma uneasily, but Fang Kedong didn't come in, and I didn't have time to pay attention to him at this time.
"Old lady she, she" the yin mother looked at us timidly, incoherently speechless.
Yang Rui said suddenly: "Old lady Yin is actually not here at all, right, you are pretending to be her and talking, right?"
I didn't expect Yang Rui to suddenly ask bluntly, and I was a little caught off guard, but since this is already the case, I simply didn't talk to her vaguely, and also asked: "Why are you doing this?"
Yin Ma suddenly softened, withered on the ground, looked at us timidly, like a child who made a big mistake was caught red-handed by an adult and worried about being beaten, she wanted to defend but didn't dare, her shriveled lips trembled slightly, and she couldn't say a word.
After all, I was a little unbearable, so I eased my emotions and said softly: "Yin Mom, do you have something unspeakable, this is not something you did on purpose, right?"
Yin Ma actually looked at me gratefully and nodded slowly.
I saw that her mood seemed to have stabilized somewhat, so I hurriedly took the opportunity to continue to guide: "The old lady Yin actually died a long time ago, you just don't dare to be lonely, and you miss her very much, so when she is still alive, come to talk to her every day, is that so?"
Yin Ma looked at me in surprise, and then nodded again and again.
I was relieved to see that her expression had finally stabilized, for I knew that there was something wrong with my mother's spirit, and that if we wanted her to tell us the truth, we had to be patient and let her dispel her hostility towards us.
So, I tentatively walked up to her and reached out to help her.
Yin Ma backed down slightly, but still accepted my support. With my support, she staggered to her feet and sat down on the low couch behind her. During this process, she kept looking at me, her eyes revealing all kinds of complex elements such as panic, embarrassment, and gratitude.
I gently patted my mother's shoulder with my hand, her eyes slowly softened, and then I asked tentatively: "Mother, you actually live alone in this house, right?"
Yin Ma looked at me and nodded.
I asked again, "Why are you living here alone for how long?"
Yin Ma suddenly shed tears and wiped the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand. I remembered that when she was talking about her son's unfilial piety through the mouth of the "old lady Yin", I couldn't help but feel moved, it seems that this may be true.
Sure enough, after wiping her tears, Yin Ma sighed deeply and told us what happened.
She said: "I came to this Yin Mansion as a maid at the age of fifteen, and the old lady Yin had just married into the Yin family. I have been serving the old lady Yin since then, and our master and servant are called master and servant, and in fact they have a very good relationship, like sisters, and she takes me very well, and never treats me as a servant. ”
When Yin Ma said this, her eyes slowly shifted away from me, and she looked in the direction of the door, and her expression was completely relaxed, as if she had entered a distant memory.
She continued: "That was more than forty years ago, when the people of the Yin Mansion were prosperous, and there were a hundred and ten people up and down, and later, when I was eighteen years old, under the rule of the old lady Yin, I married the long-term worker in the Yin House. We had a good relationship, but unfortunately he didn't live long, and his son died at the age of three. Mrs. Yin treated my son like her own and sent him to school in the city. Later, when his son grew up, he worked in the city, got married, and settled down. Later, when I got older, I wanted to go and live with my son, but my son, at the instigation of his daughter-in-law, refused to let me go to the city to live with them. The old lady took me in again and let me be with her in this house. Because Master Yin also died young, his children and grandchildren also went to the city to develop. The house slowly deserted, and in the end, we were left with two old wives and sons to depend on each other. ”
When Mother Yin said this, she wiped her tears sadly and continued: "Later, the old lady Yin also died, leaving me alone, because my son was not filial, I had to continue to stay in this house. Because I was lonely and missed the old lady very much, I continued to clean up the old lady's room every day, and prepared tea and pastries for her as always, as she still was, and learned to speak in her tone. It's been six years, and I'm used to it, like the old lady is really alive, and we have to talk here every day, about everything. After a long time, I got a strange disease, as if I was hallucinating, and I always felt that the old lady was really with me. ”
When Yin Ma said this, she actually smiled, and subconsciously looked to the side, like the old lady Yin was really looking at us. I couldn't help but feel numb in my scalp, and I subconsciously looked left and right.
I couldn't help but ask, "Do you really know Wang Xilin?"
Yin Ma said: "You said that of course I know Young Master Lin, I liked him very much when the old lady was there, but unfortunately this child had a strange disease since he was a child, and he didn't live long, and he died at the age of eighteen." The old lady was sad for a long time, and even hallucinated for a while, always feeling that Young Master Lin was not dead, and often came to see her, calling her aunt affectionately. I know the old lady's intentions, so after her death, I often talked to her about the young master of the forest. ”
I immediately remembered what Yin's mother had told me before, when we first arrived here yesterday, she didn't see Wang Xilin, but took us to see the "old lady Yin", and talked for a while. Could it be that she really turned a blind eye to Wang Xilin at that time, but as she said, because she saw that Lin Zemu and I looked a little similar to Wang Xilin, she said to the "Old Lady Yin" that Young Master Xilin had come to see her~ Search for the basket color, and you can read the following chapters in full
