I could hardly believe my eyes, and so did my grandma. She rubbed her cloudy old eyes with her hands, then looked at the woman in the picture of the lady, stared at her for a while, and asked me:
"Xiaowei, why is it you?"
I was also shocked, shaking my head blankly, saying no, I didn’t know.
"Where did you buy this picture of a beautiful lady?" I asked Guo Baosheng.
"I bought it in the antique street of the city, No. xx, from the shop of a boss named Yang. That day the boss was alone in the shop lusting after this beautiful woman. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I bought it for a high price and hung it up.
I have hung this painting at home for more than half a year. Although it is a painting, it will also generate feelings. Originally, it was my family’s intention to date you, but when I saw you, it was my own intention. You
This is the fate given to me by God."
Sure enough, it belongs to my family.
I fell silent and looked straight at myself on the screen, not knowing whether this was good or bad. I raised my head and looked at Guo Baosheng:
"You go back first. Can you leave this painting here with me for now and I can send it back to you another day?"
"This..." Guo Baosheng hesitated for a while, but finally nodded and said that he would pick it up in a few days.
I quickly called my dad and asked him if he had sold the painting that had been hanging in his room. I couldn’t explain it for a while on the phone, so I asked my dad to come over right away and tell him if there was anything urgent.
!
My dad was discussing business in the store. When I told him to come over immediately, he scolded me again. Now it seemed that he was about to succeed in the transaction. He didn't even have the patience to listen to what I was going to say to him. He got very angry and yelled.
He called me and immediately hung up the phone.
I immediately burst into tears and didn’t care about the painting. I rushed into the room, closed the door and fell on the bed to cry. Guo Baosheng was about to come in, but grandma stopped him and told me to cry for a while. Only when I cry will you know what I care about. Grandma
He came in by himself, sat by my bed, stayed with me, and said that we humans only cry for the things we care about. Cry, it’s a good thing to be able to cry. Some people can’t cry even if they want to.
.
I originally wanted to ask Tang Ange what was going on, but my grandma was sitting in front of my bed the whole time and I couldn't call Tang Ange out.
"Grandma, please leave me alone for a while." I said to grandma.
Grandma touched my hand: "It's okay. Grandma will stay with you. Everyone has sad moments. Grandma is by your side. Grandma will support you in everything."
I don’t know why, but when my grandma said these words, I didn’t feel the slightest bit moved. In fact, I really wanted to be moved, but my heart couldn’t warm up. It was like I was suppressed by a cold thing, preventing me from being moved.
I lay on the bed for several hours, hoping that grandma would sit by the bed when I got tired. She would leave when she got tired, but grandma actually sat beside me for several hours. It was like we were competing, who could leave first?
Whoever loses will lose.
Finally, Guo Baosheng was about to go home and came in to say hello. At this time, there was a sound of car brakes outside the door, and then, my father's voice came in:
"Yang Caiwei, if you need anything, just tell me quickly. Don't scare me out of the blue!" Seeing that there was no one in the hall, my dad came into my room angrily. But as soon as he came in, Guo Baosheng was startled when he saw my dad.
He paused and pointed his finger at my dad:
"Aren't you the antique owner who sells me paintings?"
My dad has a very poor memory, but when Guo Baosheng mentioned that he sold the antiques to him, his expression immediately changed, and he smiled broadly, and asked him if he liked it?
"I like it, but it's just..." Guo Baosheng glanced at me: "Xiaowei is your daughter?"
My dad nodded: "Yes, yes, you are so old and you are still not obedient!"
"The painting you sold me is fake, not from the Tang Dynasty!" Guo Baosheng looked angry.
My dad had already suppressed his anger with me and smiled at Guo Baosheng. Now when Guo Baosheng suddenly said this, my dad immediately became angry:
"All my things have been authenticated by someone. Don't slander me here. If you have the ability, bring it out to me for a look!"
"I'll show it to you!" Guo Baosheng said, pulling my dad into the hall. Suddenly, my cursing voice stopped, and I said in disbelief that this was not his painting, and his painting was not like this!
He has hung it at home for many years. The woman in this painting is definitely not me, but another woman! When it was sold to Guo Baosheng, this painting was also very normal!
"No, it was like this when you sold it to me!" Guo Baosheng retorted.
But now that this painting is in front of us, when was my portrait put up?!
"Dad, where did you get this painting?" I asked my dad. If you know where you got it, you will always know the cause and effect of something.
My dad shook his head:
"In a village within the jurisdiction of Yanzhi Town, I asked for it for nothing at a fellow villager's house. The fellow villager said that his dead son dug it out of the mountains before he was alive. He also dug up a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. I don't know what happened to him later.
At the meeting, his son died after eating and drinking Xiaoyao Zhen. Later, they were moving and I went to buy antiques. The dead man’s wife said that this picture was obscene and wanted to take it and burn it. I saw that this thing was not good.
It's simple, just come here, open it when you get home, and don't mention it, the person in this painting really looks like the daughter-in-law of the man who just died. Later, when I saw the beauty of life, I hung it at home, but there is no
Come to think of it, Caiwei has also been imprinted on it now."
The surrounding atmosphere solidified once again, and I was afraid. When I looked at the woman in the painting, my heart was panicking, as if it was tied up with an invisible shackle, which made me unable to breathe at all.
I called Bai Qiuyuan. I really had no choice. Grandma was here and I couldn't invite Tang Ange out at all. It was also at this anxious time that I strongly wanted to know what the relationship was between grandma and Tang Ange.
.
Although Bai Qiuyuan said he was poisonous, after hearing that something had happened to me, he drove over with Xie Jinian within a few minutes and asked me what was going on with his head wrapped in gauze.
I summarized the whole thing, told it to Bai Qiuyuan, and asked him what he meant. Bai Qiuyuan's eyes were always staring at me in the painting. I was a little embarrassed. After all, the person in the painting was me, and every inch of the painting was
My skin was exposed under the eyes of these men, and I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart.
My dad was my dad after all. He quickly put the painting away and put it in my room, and then asked Bai Qiuyuan and others if they knew what was going on?
Bai Qiuyuan shook his head and said he didn't know yet, but he gave me a yellow talisman and asked me to carry it with me, saying that this yellow talisman could help me drive away evil spirits and keep ghosts away.
In order to observe my situation and avoid alerting others, except for Guo Baosheng who went back, none of them left and slept in the room under grandma's room.
I still slept alone, hugging Huang Fu tightly to my chest, turned off the light, and stared at the dark air around me with my eyes wide open.
Not long after I lay down, the air around me became colder and colder. I was shivering all over. Even if I covered myself with a thick quilt, it didn't work. Finally, it was so cold that I remembered that there was another sheet in the closet.
I was about to go over and cover myself with the blanket, lift the quilt and get out of bed. As soon as I turned on the light, a woman wearing tulle appeared in front of me. It was the woman in the painting, the woman in the previous painting, not me.
!
I was so surprised that I wanted to scream, but the woman's tears suddenly flowed out and rolled down her face. She looked at me with a pleading look on her face. My scream sank in my throat, and I stared at the woman and asked her
who is it?
"My name is Qinglian. I was a top dancer in a brothel thousands of years ago. After I made enough money, I redeemed my body for myself. I also married a poor scholar whom I loved. I took care of his food and daily life, raised him, gave him money, and made him happy.
He went to Beijing to take the exam, hoping that he could go to high school and fulfill his wish. As expected, he got the second place in the rankings. Although he was not the top pick, it also meant that he would have the opportunity to flourish in the future.
We prepared meals for him in the house and waited for him to come back. But what we were waiting for was the news that he was getting married to a girl from a high-ranking official family in the capital."
When I heard Qinglian say this, I felt pitiful for her. She gave her love to a man without any reservation, only to suffer the fate of being abandoned in the end. I felt unfair for women. I asked Qinglian:
"Then you just let it go?"
"Of course I can't let it go like this. I want to ask him why he did this to me, but the road to the capital is too far. My last money has already been given to him as payment, but I don't want to let him go just like that.
I sold my body to a warlock and asked him to avenge me. He killed me, sealed my soul in this painting, took me to the capital, and gave me to that man as a gift.
, when that man saw me emerging from the painting, I was scared to death before I could kill him. But my soul was locked in the painting. Later, because of the beauty of my appearance in the painting, I
It was passed down among the officials and the royal family, and was finally taken out of the palace by a queen and lived among the people. I died because of a man during my lifetime, and after my death I also need a man's essence to be reincarnated. More than a thousand years have passed.
Now, I have seen through all the ways of men in this world, and I kill all those who deserve to be killed. This is my last time. Can you help me? I need the energy of a strong man. I need to borrow your body.
I can promise you that I will only use my energy and not kill anyone."
