Chapter 1,779 A stuck-in-the-throat question
The tomb ghost's fingers curled up slightly.
Feeling a little nervous for no reason.
Such a small flower basket is so fragile. If it accidentally exerts force, the flower basket will break.
The worry in his heart made his whole body tense subconsciously.
...
The way the tomb ghost stared at the little flower basket as if it were a formidable enemy made the girl couldn't help but giggle.
"Apiao, why are you so nervous?"
"This is not porcelain."
"The little flower basket won't be broken even if it falls to the ground."
"but-"
The girl thought thoughtfully, "The flowers inside will scatter out."
"So, you still have to be careful."
These dried flowers were the last ones she had left.
But she used her pocket money to buy new baby's breath.
She plans to make some more dried flowers filled with stars and put them in glass bottles in her house.
It must be beautiful.
…
"Apiao, I have to leave."
The grave ghost nodded.
The eyes are still on the little flower basket.
"Apiao, why don't you look at me when I'm leaving?"
The girl's complaining words made the grave ghost raise his eyes.
It's not because the girl's words make him feel embarrassed.
But there seemed to be something wrong with the girl's tone.
What's wrong?
It looked at the girl suspiciously.
"I gotta go."
The girl said what she said before again.
The grave ghost nodded.
It knows.
Didn’t the girl just say...?
etc.
The tomb ghost's expression was slightly startled, and he noticed something was wrong.
Got to go?
Seeing that the tomb ghost finally realized something, the girl curled her mouth, but there was no light in her eyes, which looked a bit dim.
"Apiao, I'm moving."
move place?
The tomb ghost tilted his head.
What's the meaning?
The confusion on the grave ghost's face was too obvious, and there was a hint of genuine smile in the girl's eyes.
"Apiao, you are so stupid, you don't even know how to move."
"Moving means..."
The girl paused, and then explained with a serious face. "I want to move to a place far, far away."
"We won't be able to come here as often as we do now."
"I can only come here every year when I visit the tomb."
"Understand?"
The girl opened her eyes wide and said, "Ah Piao, after leaving this time, the next time we meet will be next year."
"I'm going to miss you."
"will you miss Me?"
The grave ghost's expression froze.
It looked at the girl's expectant eyes, until it found that there was sadness in those eyes, and then nodded in a panic.
It actually doesn't know if it misses a human being.
The previous urgency was just because the girl said she wanted to give it a gift.
At least that's what it thinks.
And, knowing that the girl will come back one day next year, why should it miss it?
Aren’t we always seeing each other again?
However, when he saw the girl smiling because of his nod, he thought, just think that he misses her.
…
"Apiao."
The girl was a little reluctant to leave.
Ah Piao appeared in front of her at a very special time and at a very special place.
She couldn't help but wonder, was this meeting a super surprise gift from her mother?
Mom is gone, but she is not alone.
She also has A Piao.
Ah Piao is different.
Those words she wanted to say to her family but didn't dare to say them to her family, she only said them to Ah Piao.
It's nice to have someone willing to listen to your thoughts.
It doesn't matter even if Ah Piao is not a human being.
Ah Piao is very good.
Ah Piao is Ah Piao.
"We are friends, right?"
The girl's somewhat abrupt words made the grave ghost stunned.
friend?
Is it friends with a human?
What an incredible and ridiculous thing.
However, looking at the girl's sparkling eyes, the tomb ghost nodded.
Well, they are friends.
The girl smiled even more happily.
"Then Piao, you must not forget me."
"Next time I come, when I call you, you must show up quickly."
"I will scream very loudly."
"I will definitely let you hear my voice."
"You can't be as slow as this time."
"I would be...scared."
"Afraid...you're gone."
"Afraid...I'll never find you again."
…
The grave ghost nodded.
Next time it will appear as soon as it hears a girl's voice.
It looked at the small flower basket in its hand and narrowed its eyes.
…
"Apiao, goodbye."
The girl waved her hand.
"Mom, goodbye."
The girl looked at the woman in the photo for a while, then turned around.
After just two steps, the girl stopped.
She didn't turn around.
Instead, he lowered his head and looked at his toes.
"Apiao."
"Actually, I wanted to ask you last time..."
"But I dare not ask."
The girl's voice is very soft.
However, for the tomb ghost, this is not a problem.
What it wondered about was the meaning of the girl's words.
It felt that it would not be able to understand the girl's words again.
…
"I'm scared……"
"If mother were still here, would she..."
"Will you treat your brother better than me?"
Just thinking about this possibility made her really sad.
Like a lump in the throat.
Would her favorite mother also prefer her younger brother?
The girl's hands were tightly clutching her crossbody bag.
The more she felt neglected at home, the more she missed her mother.
However, one time she overheard her grandmother's words.
"Oh~, if that girl is still here, we will have both children. What a blessing."
"She has been looking forward to this son for a long time."
"Who would have thought..."
"She has never even seen the child."
...
I don't know why, but her heart is beating very fast.
Does your mother look forward to your younger brother?
Her mind was a little confused.
Overly complicated thoughts caused her brain to fall into a state of panic.
After a brief blank moment, a picture slowly emerged in her mind.
Mom touched her bulging belly.
She has a very pretty smile and is very gentle.
She couldn't help but move closer.
Her mother looked at her with a smile on her face and said, "Nanny, you are about to have a brother, are you happy?"
younger brother?
She was a little stunned, staring blankly at her mother's growing belly.
Brother...in mother's belly?
"Why are you so dumb?"
The woman reached out and tapped her forehead gently.
"Mother."
She looked up at the woman.
"Um?"
The woman asked softly.
"Are you happy?"
Immediately, she noticed that her mother seemed stunned for a moment.
She tilted her head.
Why?
Is there something wrong with her question?
Woman looking at girl.
Then he put his hand on the girl's head.
The familiar, warm fragrance surrounded the girl.
"Well, mom is very happy."
A woman's gentle voice came from the direction above her head.
"Where is Nannan? Are you happy?"
same question.
This time, the girl quickly gave the answer.
"Happy!"
She is happy when her mother is happy.
...
From that day on, she had a clear understanding in her mind.
Mom is looking forward to the arrival of her brother.
Looking at her expectant mother, she couldn't help but look forward to it.
Although sometimes seeing the whole family talking about her younger brother and looking forward to his arrival made her a little unhappy.
Just a little bit.
