Maybe, this is the difference between bad monsters and good monsters?
Xiao Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and raised the corner of his mouth.
…
"Everyone is here to eat."
Grandma Li's family greeted everyone to "come in" and take their seats.
…
Grandma Li’s cooking was very good, and Xiao Xiao and the others ate to their heart’s content.
Zhuge Yun even kept saying nice things with sweet words, which made Grandma Li keep smiling and very happy.
The lively atmosphere at the dinner table made Little Gypsophila loosen some of her restraints, with bright eyes and happy eyebrows.
…
A cell phone ringtone suddenly rang.
The familiar music made Grandma Luo stunned for a moment, and then she suddenly realized that her cell phone was ringing.
She took out her phone and looked at it, and her face couldn't help but look a little ugly.
We have been an old couple for decades, and even though Grandpa Man has always had a "careless" temperament, he immediately noticed his wife's unhappy mood.
"What happened? Who called?"
Grandma Luo frowned, "Xiaotang's phone number."
Grandpa Man’s face didn’t look good either.
Every word his daughter-in-law said yesterday was still in his ears and he remembered it clearly.
If the other party hadn't been a woman, his daughter-in-law, and the biological mother of his grandson, Grandpa Man would have cursed him even if he didn't hit him.
How can it be like yesterday, when I just scolded the other party for a few words.
…
I thought she was a good daughter-in-law, but she turned out to be so evil-minded.
There is not even room for a child!
Grandpa Man was very disappointed.
And very scared.
It is too dangerous to place such a time bomb next to my granddaughter.
They left the child behind.
I also wanted the young couple to reflect on it.
What Aunt Tang did made them very angry.
They didn't want to mention what happened in the kindergarten again, but how could the child's mother make such ridiculous remarks?
He actually said that his child was haunted by a monster?!
Is this what the child's mother said?
Maybe, a stepmother is a stepmother after all.
…
Grandpa Man and Grandma Luo both felt hurt that they had been deceived.
Why can't a girl who looks so kind be nice to her children?
Little Man's Gypsophila is such a cute child, but they just don't understand how someone can be willing to hurt her for no reason?
…
Grandma Luo let the phone ring and had no intention of paying attention.
The living room was quiet for a while, only the ringtone of the phone could be heard, clear and loud, a bit noisy and harsh.
…
It wasn't until the third ringtone that Grandma Luo answered the phone.
…
"I'm at Grandpa Li's house next door."
…
"Okay, let's come over."
…
Grandma Luo hung up the phone.
"Xiuying?"
Grandma Li's grandmother shouted worriedly.
"What did Xiaotang say?"
Grandpa Man asked with a frown.
Grandma Luo smiled at Grandma Li, but there was no smile in her eyes.
Then she turned to Grandpa Man and said, "Xiaotang is outside."
"She said some of what she said yesterday was just gibberish on her part."
"She was just really scared, so she said those words without hesitation."
"real?"
Grandpa Man had a look of doubt on his face. Those words were not like a slip of the tongue, but more like the true words hidden deep in his heart.
"She wants to talk to us."
Grandma Luo looked at Grandpa Man inquiringly.
Grandpa Man was silent for a while, then slowly stood up.
Grandma Luo understood what her husband meant.
In fact, she also wanted to hear her daughter-in-law's explanation.
She couldn't believe she had seen the wrong person.
The soup has always been very good.
…
"Juanzi, please help me take a look at the little baby's breath."
Grandma Luo pulled out the child who was hiding in Grandpa Man's arms, stretched out her finger and tapped the child's forehead, "You little fool, what are you hiding from? Are you suffocating yourself by not patting me?"
When the phone rang just now, little Gypsophila seemed to be frightened, and she immediately got into Grandpa's arms without raising her head.
The little body was shaking a little.
Grandpa Man kept patting the child's shoulders comfortingly.
…
"Little Man's Gypsophila, you can play by yourself at Grandma Wang's house for a while. Grandma and Grandpa have to leave for a while, okay?"
"Um."
Little Gypsophila nodded obediently.
"Be good, listen to Grandma Wang and Grandpa Li."
Grandma Luo touched her granddaughter's head.
"Um."
"Little Gypsophila is very well-behaved."
The child's serious assurance made Grandma Luo a little stunned for no reason. The child's expression seemed a little too serious?
…
"Oh, little Gypsophila, don't listen to your grandma."
Grandma Li glared at Grandma Luo slightly. This child is already well-behaved. How else do you want her to be well-behaved?
"You can play however you want, Grandma Wang will accompany you."
"That's right, little baby's breath."
Grandpa Man picked up the child and lifted it up high, causing the child to relax his tight little face. After a moment of fright, he burst out into happy laughter.
"As long as the little baby's breath is happy."
"It doesn't matter if you get into trouble, grandpa will help you."
Grandma Luo couldn't help but roll her eyes at Grandpa Man. Is there such a way to teach children?
But seeing the child's red cheeks smiling, Grandma Luo also smiled.
…
"Okay, you go."
"Have a good talk with Xiaotang."
"Leave the little baby's breath to us."
"Well, I'm sorry to bother you."
…
Grandpa Man and Grandma Luo opened the door and left.
As the door closed, a faint female voice came from outside the door.
I could vaguely hear the other party calling "Dad, Mom."
…
"How was it? Have you gone back?"
Li Yan asked Xiao Xiao how many people there were.
Xiao Xiao turned his questioning eyes to Zhang Bo and the others.
His goal had been achieved. Now that he knew that the monster had not harmed the child, he felt relieved.
As for the frightened Aunt Tang, looking at the overly well-behaved child in front of her, Xiao Xiao said, since the monsters are not around the child, what can he do?
He was also helpless.
…
Zhang Bo and others looked at the little baby's breath.
From the moment this child appeared, they looked at him for a long time without any trace, and couldn't see anything out of the ordinary.
Although they were a little regretful, they also knew that there were no monsters in the world. They were just spreading rumors.
They were just holding on to hope.
…
"Well, let's go back to school."
…
"Grandpa, grandma, we are going back to school."
"Are you going back?"
Grandma Wang was a little reluctant to give up, but then she thought about it and said, "Well, it's better to go back early. If you give up later, it will be dark and the road will be unsafe."
Regarding these instructions to the child, Li Yan smiled helplessly and obeyed obediently.
…
"Goodbye, grandparents."
"goodbye."
"Come and play again next time, grandma will prepare delicious food for you."
"Well, thank you grandma."
"We'll bother you again."
…
After walking out of the door, everyone couldn't help but glance at the closed door opposite.
…
It wasn't until he walked out of the building that Zhuge Yun broke the silence among the group and said, "Ah, it's true that being haunted by monsters is a lie, right?"
