"How could my uncle ......?"

Qin Huai took a step back, finding it difficult to accept this result.

He said incredulously, "Auntie, can you tell me, what happened to my uncle?"

Seeing that the young man's face was devastated, as if he was mourning, Mrs. Li was also uncomfortable.

She shook her head, "It's a long story, there are so many things involved, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it." ”

Old Mrs. Li was obviously afraid of something.

"Auntie." Wen Cha took a step forward, stared at Mrs. Li, and said in a melancholy tone: "We came back this time to find our uncle, since you said that he has passed away, as a junior, we didn't pay homage in front of him, and we don't know when he died, if we don't know anything about his death now, how should we, who are juniors, face the old people under Jiuquan in the future?"

People in the mountains are somewhat feudal in their hearts.

When she heard Wen Cha mention her death, she seemed to think of what she would look like after her death, and Mrs. Li shuddered again.

Her voice trembled slightly: "You, since you have all gone abroad, what are you doing when you come back?"

Wen Cha smiled bitterly: "Huaxia pays attention to drinking water and thinking about the source, and the fallen leaves return to the roots, we young people naturally think the same way, we accumulate knowledge outside, and we come back to serve the motherland."

As soon as she heard about serving the motherland, Mrs. Li was not so repulsed.

Her slightly cloudy gaze wandered between Wen Cha and Qin Huai for a moment, and saw that the two of them were extraordinary, their complexions were very positive, and their hearts were slightly lowered.

She opened the door and said to Wen Cha, "Come in."

When the two entered the house, the furnishings in the yard were already very old, and the smoke came from the corner of the yard.

Mrs. Li took out two benches from the hall and handed them to them.

He sat on a low stool by the fire, and no longer hidden.

"If there's anything you want to ask, just ask."

Wen Cha's eyes swept over her face, and she smiled reluctantly: "I want to know, how did my uncle pass away back then?"

"Suicidal." Mrs. Li said in a hoarse voice: "Twenty years ago, I committed suicide in prison."

A trace of shock appeared on Wen Cha's face, and the shock quickly turned into painful mourning, and she grabbed Old Lady Li's hand, "Auntie, tell me, how did my uncle end up in prison, why did he commit suicide?" How could he kill himself? And my sister, where is she now, is she still there? ”

I saw the tears in the little girl's eyes that were about to overflow, and her expression that didn't seem to be fake.

Mrs. Li sighed heavily.

"This matter has been going on for too long, I'm afraid to say it, and you're afraid you won't believe it."

"Auntie, you say."

Wen Cha clenched her dry hand.

Mrs. Li said in a deep voice: "This has to be said more than 20 years ago."

"Back then, after your uncle Ye Tang divorced, he was devastated, and returned to the village with his daughter Ye Xiaoxiao, and opened a small store in the village, your uncle and I are neighbors, I naturally know some things about him, Xiaoxiao was still very young at the time, everyone's life was not good, but your uncle was very fond of her, he was a learned person, and he was very serious about taking care of children, your sister was the most beautiful girl in the village, and the cleanest clothes were washed, we all liked her very much, who would have thought that something would happen...... It would have happened when she was thirteen. ”

"That year, she graduated from the primary school at the head of the village and went to study at Fuyao Middle School, not far from the village, when the three grades of the school combined, there were only about 100 students and five teachers, two of whom were volunteer teachers, and Xiaoxiao had an accident there."

Hear the word "accident".

Wen Cha's hand trembled.

Mrs. Li patted the back of her hand and continued: "That summer, one day there was a heavy rainstorm, and several children in the school could not go home, and the parents were very anxious and ran to the school to find someone, but not only did they not go home, but they were not in the school, including your sister."

"Your uncle was worried about the bad and looked for her everywhere, and the next morning, your sister was found in the woods outside the village, she got lost in the torrential rain, and finally ran into the woods, soaking wet, trembling and nesting on the grass, all her body was bruised, and she couldn't even walk, your uncle brought her back, and we were really distressed, and then the rest of the children were found one after another, but two of them, because of the slippery road, fell into the pond next to the school and drowned."

Wen Cha's fingers trembled very much, and as a psychiatrist, she seemed to find it difficult to accept such a death.

"And then?"

Later, the school paid some money to the parents whose children drowned, and the matter was over. But that's when your sister's spirit doesn't go well......"

"Listening to your uncle, she often wakes up in the middle of the night, cries alone in the quilt, asks her nothing, she doesn't say anything, her temper has changed, she has become silent, no longer communicates with people, and sometimes she loses her temper inexplicably and says some inexplicable things."

Qin Huai's eyes darkened: "Do you remember when it was?"

Mrs. Li thought for a while and said, "Not long after her classmate's accident, she woke up in the middle of the night and lost her temper again, your uncle really had no choice, so he asked me to enlighten her, and that night, she shrunk under the quilt, her eyes were red, and she said a few words to me."

"What did she say?"

"She said that she dreamed of female classmates who were in class together, they stood in the water and called her, saying that they wanted to play with her, take her to a place where there were no worries, and they wanted to be good friends, she was afraid to die, she kept holding my hand and asked me to help her, I enlightened her and said that the dream was all fake, and it would be fine when she woke up, she couldn't listen to it, and she started crying in a blink of an eye."

"She said that everything is true, her female classmates have been captured by the devil, they will never come back, and they want to take her away, but she is afraid of death, she can't do anything."

I asked her who the devil was. She said that the devil was in her dream, she did not dare to say their names, she was afraid that her father would die. ”

She didn't dare to say her name, she was afraid that her father would die......

Qin Huai rubbed his fingertips, "Did she say anything else?" ”

"I didn't say anything more," Mrs. Li shook her head, and her tone was unspeakably sad: "She fell asleep after being appeased by me, and then woke up and calmed down a lot, and it didn't take long for her to miss her mother very much, she said to your uncle, she has a little secret she wants to tell her mother, your uncle asked her what secret, and she said that only her mother can know her secret."

"Is my aunt back?"

"I came back, also in the summer, your uncle found your aunt's contact information, and asked your aunt to come back by phone, but your aunt hasn't arrived home yet, as if someone is obstructing it in the dark, she suddenly said that there was something urgent, her feet didn't touch the ground, and she turned around and left."
