Chapter 185: Inextricably Linked (86)

At this time, Lin Zijiao's thoughts and guilt for her nephew were like a volcano that had been accumulated for a long time, and finally erupted.

What made Lin Zijiao even more relieved was her daughter, who was less than two years old. Thinking about it, in this world, the only person who can be entrusted is the nephew who was abandoned by him many years ago.

So, Lin Zijiao sold all the property she had accumulated over the years in the coastal area, and then took Lin Xiaolei back to Qinghe.

Lin Zijiao gave up halfway, ran away halfway, betrayed her mother's entrustment to her, and now suddenly appeared, but she asked Xia Youdao to raise her cousin who was less than two years old. Xia Youdao didn't feel good in his heart, so he pulled his hand out of Lin Zijiao's hand and left the ward without looking back.

Lin Zijiao also knew that Xia Youdao couldn't accept it in a short time, and even knew that the things he did were a bit messy and confusing, so he didn't blame Xia Youdao, just lying quietly on the hospital bed and counting down his life.

After Xia Youdao left the hospital, he returned to the funeral home to continue working.

On the main road inside the museum, he saw a young girl. Due to his heavy heart and distraction, Xia Youdao just glanced at the girl, then lowered his head and continued to walk towards the building where he worked.

The girl stopped Xia Youdao with words, and then trotted all the way over, greeted him, and asked for help.

The girl said that her name was Qu Lulu, and she came to the cemetery to sweep her mother's grave, but she didn't remember where her mother's grave was, and she also wanted to find someone to help check it, but she didn't know who to find. Anyone who enters from the main entrance of the "funeral parlor" is a relative of the deceased who is holding a funeral in the hall.

Xia Youdao was a little speechless about this girl who couldn't even find her mother's grave, but also told her that she had to go to the staff in charge of the maintenance of the cemetery, and let them help find the location of the cemetery.

Then, Xia Youdao raised his hand and pointed ahead, repeating the address, you go straight along this road for three hundred meters, turn left at the second intersection, go forward for two hundred meters, you will see three intersections, go straight to the rightmost intersection for four hundred meters, until you see a big pine tree, then turn left, continue to go forward three or four hundred meters, and then turn right......

Qu Lulu heard it in a fog, and before she could confirm it, Xia Youdao had already left.

Xia Youdao, who was unwilling, really had no intention of going to work, and after staying restless for an hour or two, he simply asked for leave.

But as soon as he went out, he saw that the girl named Qu Lulu was still looking around in the same place, and it seemed that she had not found a place yet.

This is probably a road idiot.

After Xia Youdao muttered in his heart, he stepped forward to ask, only to know that Qu Lulu had already turned around here a few times, but he just didn't find the place he said.

Xia Youdao didn't want to go home much, let alone go to the hospital, so he simply led the way himself.

On the way, Qu Lulu seemed to be in a brisk mood, and asked Xia Youdao a lot of questions. For example, why do you work here, are you afraid of working here, have you ever encountered such strange things as ghosts hitting the wall, ghosts pressing the bed, ghosts shaving their heads, and ghosts pulling their legs.

Qu Lulu's words and demeanor didn't look like she was coming to sweep the graves of her relatives, but more like going out on an outing.

The deceased is gone, and the living have to face life with their feet on the ground.

Whether a person appears in a funeral home or in a cemetery, even if some people do not seem to have any sadness, it does not mean that the person is disrespectful to the deceased or has no feelings for the deceased.

Due to work reasons, Xia Youdao is used to seeing all kinds of endings of life and human feelings, so he didn't think much about Qu Lulu's slightly "happy" mood.

In the face of all kinds of messy problems, Xia Youdao's mood didn't seem to be so bad, and the sullen breath in his chest seemed to be inexplicably smoother.

When she arrived at the cemetery management office, she found out the location of her mother's cemetery, Qu Lu looked up at the door and saw that it was getting late, and she felt a little scared to go to the tomb alone, so she asked Xia Youdao to accompany her.

Xia Youdao didn't refuse, but only then did he react, stared at Qu Lulu and said, You have empty hands, why don't you bring anything?

Qu Lulu was very unhappy and said the door

Those who sell incense, candles, and paper money are too expensive, and after they come in, they find that they are even more expensive, and these people have made a fortune and their hearts are too dark, so I won't let them succeed.

After snorting, he changed his words and said that if I had money, I would also open a shop at the door that specialized in selling incense, candles, and paper money, so that they would not have anything to eat.

Xia Youdao couldn't cry or laugh, but Qu Lulu was diligent and thrifty, and he was reluctant to spend money, but he didn't know that Qu Lulu actually had no money.

Xia Youdao rolled his eyes, returned with Qu Lulu the same way, went back to his place of work, and soon came out with a bag of incense, candles, and paper money.

Seeing this, Qu Lulu was immediately happy like a child who had gotten candy.

When sweeping the tomb, after Qu Lulu lit the incense candles and paper money, she knelt in front of the tombstone without saying a word, bowing her head and crying for a long time.

Xia Youdao wanted to step forward to comfort but felt abrupt, and left without saying a word, so he felt even more inappropriate, so he could only stand quietly to the side, looking at a loss.

The night sky is full of stars, twinkling, like a pair of eyes full of mysterious wisdom, like beautiful shining gems, and more like shining pearls dancing on the dark curtain.

After Qu Lulu finally got tired of crying, she wiped a handful of tears and stood up, her eyes were swollen like two light bulbs, and she said to Xia Youdao casually, I'm hungry, you can invite me to eat again.

Xia Youdao actually couldn't say half a word of refusal.

On the way out, Qu Lulu asked Xia Youdao to borrow a mobile phone, then walked to the side, called Wen Zhong and reported to him his itinerary for the day.

During the meal, the two drank again.

Life is just two or two wines, one or two sad, one or two sorrowful. I have a story, you have wine, I can accompany you for a night; I'll change the story to wine, and lie to you to follow me.

After a few glasses of wine, there is no barrier.

Qu Lulu confided in Xia Youdao, saying that she was an orphan, and she was raised by a friend of her father since she was a child, and now that she has grown up, she has to support herself and be self-reliant, and she has to make money to repay this uncle's nurturing grace.

Xia Youdao's sorrow was completely hooked, and then he confided in Qu Lulu before and after the section where his aunt suddenly came to him to drag his orphans.

When Qu Lulu heard this, she was immediately puzzled, and asked him with drunken eyes and hazy eyes, what do you think she lacks most, or what does he want most?

Xia Youdao replied without thinking, relatives, of course relatives, I want to have relatives in my dreams.

Qu Lulu blinked her eyes and continued to ask, but now that you have relatives, why do you hesitate?

Xia Youdao was stunned, yes, what am I doing? Holding sweet potatoes looking for sweet potatoes?.

Dizzy, he seemed to see the scene of pestering his aunt when he was a child.

The next day, Xia Youdao, who had been relieved, came to the hospital, and looked at Lin Zijiao, who was skinny and skinny in bed because of illness and life, and he said what was in his heart:

We are the only relatives of each other, but you thought I was a drag bottle, which brought stress and inconvenience to your life, so you abandoned me. I am different from you, I choose to forgive you, and I also choose to face the misfortunes and pressures of life. I will raise my cousin, not because of you, but because she is my cousin, my only relative. For me, loved ones are more important than anything else.

Lin Zijiao couldn't help crying, and after finally calming down, she finally decided to tell Xia Youdao why she wanted to leave him.

Lin Zijiao's parents died when she was a child, and she has been raised by her sister and brother-in-law, and she has no worries about food and clothing. But after her brother-in-law and sister passed away one after another, she was a 15-year-old and a half-year-old child, and she had to raise a 5-year-old child, so she had to drop out of school and lie about her age to work in restaurants and hotels. The burden of life made her eyes dark, and the time when she was dependent on her nephew seemed to be a ray of light in this darkness.

Lin Zijiao was eighteen or nineteen years old when she was slim, and when she was working as a cleaner in a hotel to clean her room, she was dragged into the guest room by the hotel's boss Zhen.

Afterwards, Lin Zijiao cried and said that she wanted to call the police, but Boss Zhen said unhurriedly, if you dare to call the police, or tell others about it, I will find someone to kill your nephew. Even if I go to jail, I can still do it

There is a connection with the outside. Your nephew is only eight or nine years old, and it's as easy to find someone to kill him as it is to pinch an ant to death.

Lin Zijiao was scared, she knew that this Boss Zhen had a background in crime, and she couldn't afford to mess with her at all.

The next period of time was Lin Zijiao's nightmarish days.

Boss Zhen ordered her to come to work on time every day, otherwise he would not only fire her, but also go to her house to find her. Since then, during Lin Zijiao's work, Boss Zhen will implement *** on her every day.

In this way, Boss Zhen's intimidation and bestial behavior became a sharp sword hanging over Lin Zijiao's head, and it also became the last straw that crushed her. She was terrified, and often woke up in her sleep, wondering how to escape the clutches.

By chance, Lin Zijiao heard some street gossip about who worked in the coastal area and made a lot of money in the neighborhood committee.

Lin Zijiao's eyes lit up, as if she had grasped a life-saving straw.

It seemed to be the best way for her to escape the clutches. At least, that's what Lin Zijiao thought at the time. Boss Zhen only covets her body, if she suddenly disappears, Boss Zhen has no need to embarrass a nine-year-old child.

With her nephew, Lin Zijiao was worried that she would not be familiar with life when she went outside, so if she didn't find a job, wouldn't she live on the streets? Leave your nephew at home, and no matter what, he will at least have a place to stay. But abandoning her nephew and running away alone made her reluctant for a while.

Tossing and turning, Lin Zijiao still hasn't made up her mind.
