Chapter 5: My Mother's Secret

My cousin immediately pulled me behind him.

"I, I know that woman! She was my elementary school classmate and drowned in the reservoir eight years ago. ”

My cousin kicked the door open first. But there were no ghosts outside, only a red wedding dress, and a pair of embroidered shoes neatly placed there.

"What does that mean?" I looked at these things, my eyes widening.

"That thing in the water, I want you ......"

"What?" My face turned pale and I staggered, and this thing has been pestering me because of this.

I looked at the wedding dress on the floor, and hatred rose in my eyes. Find the alcohol and pour it on it, and take a fire from the stove to burn the red wedding dress.

"Slow!" Uncle Cousin screamed. My hand hasn't gone down yet.

"What are you doing with this thing?" I asked, puzzled.

"It will be useful later!" When he said this, he put away the red wedding dress.

I don't have the energy to take care of anything else right now, and I have to deal with my grandmother's death as soon as possible.

With my cousin here, he takes care of everything, and I save a lot of trouble.

It wasn't until my grandmother was pushed into the furnace and her body was burned by the raging fire that I saw my mother and breathed a sigh of relief. She seemed to be worried about her grandmother's body.

"I'm going back to school when I'm done with that." I said to my cousin.

"You can't go back yet, this matter hasn't been resolved yet." Hearing my cousin's words, I frowned again, the most tricky and pestering thing.

"Son, come and live at home!" My mother invited me and threw an olive branch at me.

I just smiled detachedly at her.

"I live at my grandmother's house, that's my home!"

As soon as I said this, my mother was speechless. There was still a hint of guilt in his eyes.

"Niece, we really live with your mother." My cousin spoke at this point.

"Why?" I asked hurriedly.

"That thing now knows where you live, aren't you afraid that he'll come to you again?" Uncle Cousin said.

I looked at my cousin.

"Isn't there still you?"

"Baimi is still a sparse, and the place where your mother lives has good feng shui, it is a prosperous house, and ghosts are not allowed to enter. And the blessing of your Jing ancestors. ”

I don't quite believe my cousin's statement, if our family was prosperous, my father would not have died early.

"Yes, listen to your cousin, he won't hurt you!"

My mother immediately helped, I nodded, my mother was very happy, and immediately smiled, if she had treated me like this before, there would not be such an insurmountable gap between us.

My mom took my luggage and I moved back to that strange home from my grandmother's ancestral home. I only have a little memory of that strange home.

But those memories are bitter, and I have no joy here.

I was standing in front of the gate, and I didn't step forward, and when my mother and cousin were about to go in, they found that I was stunned in the back.

"It's home, A-Ning come in, right?"

"Home? Only my grandmother's home and I are considered home, for me it is no different from a cheap hotel, I will give you the room fee every day! ”

I walked over, picked up the trolley case from my mom's hand, and walked inside.

My mother was a little embarrassed, and my cousin pulled her in.

As soon as I entered the hall, I saw the black and white picture of my grandmother and the incense burner in front of her

I froze there and looked at the people in the black and white photo.

"A-Ning, can you give your grandma some incense?" My mom said to me.

"No need, she's an old man, and she doesn't lack my incense!"

I coldly refused, remembering a lot of things when I was a child, believing that she didn't want to see me come back even if she died.

My mom stood there like a child who had done something wrong.

"Why didn't I see Xiao Yong?"

I looked at my mom again.

"Oh, he's been unwell all the time, so I'll send him to the old Chinese medicine doctor's house, where he lives now, and it's easier to treat." As my mother said this, her eyes wandered to the room outside, where I had lived for a while.

"That must have cost a lot of money!" I sarcastically said that they used to call me a loser, but now it's their baby son's turn.

My mom didn't speak, but took the opportunity to say that she would cook for us.

My cousin began to decorate the house inside and out with his yellow charms, incense ashes, and other things. To make sure nothing goes wrong.

I was left alone in the room, and from the window I could see the house I used to live in. Now the house was unoccupied, and the door was locked, but the curtains inside were tightly blocked.

If there are no people inside, why do you need to block the curtains?

"Girl, it's time to eat!" My mom called out to me, and I just passed.

My cousin and uncle were basically ready, and we were all on the table, and he told me that he would prepare for the next few days, and that when it came to the fifteenth day of this month, that is, he would clean up the contents of the water himself.

"Cousin, what's in the water?" I've always had this question.

"This snake demon has become a spirit! He sucks the blood of women. ”

"So I'm the next target he's looking for?" I asked hurriedly, and my cousin nodded hurriedly.

Hearing this, I lost my appetite for a moment.

"Don't worry, with my uncle here, no one can hurt our family's baby!"

He smiled at me and scratched my nose lovingly. I nodded heavily.

After I finished eating, my mom let me stay in my grandmother's room for the night. I don't like this arrangement a little.

"Can I go back to my old house?" I pointed to the wing.

"That, no!" My mom refused, and her words were a little hurried. "Ah, it's already full of miscellaneous items at home, and it's not easy to clean it up now."

She saw my doubts and quickly added.

I looked at the house again, and it seemed like there was something hidden there, which made my mom so nervous.

"When you come back later, I'll clean up the place for you again, so that you can live comfortably."

"No need, no later!" I coldly refused and left.

I was lying in the hall, and the cold moon had crept up, and it was about to be full.

"Grandma, I will definitely avenge you!"

Thinking about my grandmother, my tears welled up again. Before I could release all my emotions, I heard the sound of rustling footsteps outside.

I was curious and jumped off the kang, it was already midnight, and most people were sleeping, who would be so late, wouldn't it be another water ghost?

There was a "buzz" in my head, but my cousin had arranged it inside and out, what the hell would dare to come?

I lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out.

By the moonlight, I saw the figure flash by, came to the locked door, and took out the key to unlock it.

That's not a ghost, a ghost won't take a key to open the lock. Seeing that person's figure, it's a little familiar, is that my mother?

What is she doing?

I saw that she was carrying a chicken in her hand, still alive. She quickly opened the door and threw the chicken inside. In an instant, the door was locked tightly.

Then I heard the screams of chickens coming from the house.

My mom lied to me, and it wasn't clutter in that room, it was a living thing!

It's still a thing that can eat live chickens.
