Lulu’s mother cried all night again, making me so noisy that I couldn’t sleep well all night. The next day, my mother dragged me up with two big black circles under my eyes.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw my mother standing above me in a panic. She was relieved when she saw that I woke up: "Nuan Ting, didn't you sleep well last night? If you don't wake up, your mother will be scared to death."
I thought my mother had to blame me for what happened yesterday, but my mother didn't mention it. She must have forgotten.
I scratched my forehead, turned to look at Lulu, who was sitting on the kang and reading a book seriously, and whispered to my mother: "Yesterday, Aunt Bai cried at our door again all night. I couldn't sleep, so I got up late."
"Ah." My mother suddenly raised her voice, "Nier's milk powder is gone. Nuan Ting, go to your Aunt Lu and buy a bag."
"Aunt Yun, let me go." Lulu immediately put down her book and went to the ground to put on her shoes.
My mother pressed Lulu's shoulders and said with a smile: "Let Nuan Ting go. You study hard. Our family will have to count on you in the future. Nuan Ting probably can't count on you."
I???
I was pushed out of the door by my mother with an unconvinced look on my face.
When we walked to the door, my mother suddenly bent down and said, "Mom will save Lulu mom in a moment."
"Oh!" I realized that my mother didn't want Lulu to hear it, lest Lulu would be sad.
I grabbed the money and walked happily to Aunt Lu's house.
"Aunt Lu!" I called Aunt Lu happily.
Aunt Lu was cleaning the shelves. When she heard my voice, she turned around and asked me with a smile: "Girl Yun, what do you want to order?"
Aunt Lu's eyes were red, her eye circles were dark, and her hair was oily. Maybe she didn't sleep well all night.
My smile dropped a bit, Aunt Lu must still be sad because of what Grandma Li said yesterday.
"I want milk powder."
"Nier is quite edible." Aunt Lu smiled and took the milk powder for me and took the money.
I walked to the door holding the milk powder and looked back at Aunt Lu. Aunt Lu was very nice, but she was sad now, but I didn't know how to make her happy.
"What's wrong, Girl Yun? Is there anything else?"
I scratched my face and hesitated for a long time before shouting: "Aunt Lu! You are so beautiful!"
Aunt Lu was stunned.
My face was on fire, so I stepped away and ran away.
After running a few steps, I could still hear Aunt Lu suddenly laughing: "This kid."
Yeah! As long as Aunt Lu is happy!
In fact, the people in our ten miles and eight villages are very nice, very simple and very enthusiastic, but just a few mouse droppings can stink up a whole village.
Just like Uncle Li's family.
I happened to walk to the intersection and looked towards the back door of Uncle Li's house.
I frowned.
Grandma Li was talking to a man who was completely wrapped in a black windbreaker.
The man seemed to be a man, a little taller than my dad, but very thin. He was actually wearing a windbreaker on such a hot day, and even had black gloves and a mask on his hands and face. Was he sick?
Forget it, Grandma Li is not a good person, and those who associate with her are definitely not good people either.
I don't care about them!
I went home shaking my head.
As soon as I entered the house, I felt something was wrong. My second uncle's red motorcycle was standing in the yard, but the whole yard was quiet, and there was no one in the two rooms.
Hey? Where are my mother and Lulu?
I ran into the house and saw Nier still asleep. I quietly put the milk powder on the cabinet and ran to the backyard.
Sure enough, they were all in the altar.
Before I even entered the house, I heard Lulu’s mother’s cry that I was tired of hearing.
"Guizhi, it's not that I don't want to leave, it's that I owe Lulu so much, and I want to make it up to her."
"Sister-in-law, what's the use of saying this now? If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place? You are already a ghost, and staying with Lulu will only harm her! She is still a child, and she can't stand the yin energy in you!"
The second uncle's gentle tone was full of seriousness.
Lulu's mother begged: "I know, I just want to take a look at her from a distance and let me accompany her. At least I can feel at ease when she grows up with her."
My mother sighed: "Sister-in-law, if you look at her from a distance, won't it affect Lulu? Lulu's fate is already very miserable. If you really love her and want to make up for her, stay away from Lulu.
of."
Lulu's mother immediately burst into tears, beat her chest and said that she regretted believing that spider spirit.
When Lulu heard my mother's words, she thought she wanted her to stay away from her. She immediately pulled her sleeves and started crying: "I don't want to be separated from my mother. I don't want to cry. Aunt Yun, please think of a way."
Seeing Lulu crying, Lulu's mother, who was already remorseful, was heartbroken.
I picked at the edge of the window sill and looked inside. Lulu's mother knelt down to hug Lulu, but her arm passed through Lulu's body.
Aunt Li was sitting in front of the statue with her eyes closed, just like my mother usually did when she meditated, with a kind look on her face.
Her skirt was completely white.
The second uncle stood against the wall at the door, smoothing the top of his head with sparse hair and his eyes wandering around.
"Sister-in-law, we know that you love your daughter very much. How about this? Let's find a compromise. You will live in the cemetery from now on. During the holidays, we will take Lulu to burn paper for you, and you can also see Lulu.
How's it going?"
My mother also chimed in: "Yes, sister-in-law, this way the yin energy in your body won't harm Lulu, and Lulu can always tell you that she's safe."
My mother and second uncle both relented, and Lulu’s mother happily agreed.
But my mother said that Lulu’s mother was a person who died unexpectedly and was more powerful than ordinary imps. In order to prevent Lulu’s mother from breaking her promise, some measures were taken to make Lulu’s mother an earthbound spirit, and she could only move around in the cemetery in the future.
I know that the earth-bound spirit is the soul that becomes the exclusive soul of a certain land and cannot leave the same place. At most, it can wander within a few meters or dozens of meters in radius.
Lulu's mother hesitated for a while and then agreed.
But I'm not happy anymore.
I don’t understand, Lulu’s parents were not nice to Lulu before they died, so why is Lulu still reluctant to leave them? It’s such a disgrace!
Lulu's father was okay, he apologized and left with Black and White Wuchang, but Lulu's mother would hurt Lulu if she stayed with her!
My mother and second uncle actually agreed! I really don’t know what these two adults were thinking.
I pursed my lips so much that I stood outside the memorial hall with displeasure written all over my body.
My mother held up a black umbrella and led Lulu's mother and Lulu out. They didn't see me and went straight to the gate.
After a while, my second uncle had another conversation with Aunt Li in the memorial hall, and he saw me when he came out.
"Girl Yun, who has offended you again?" My second uncle walked towards me in surprise, "You are like a gas tank becoming a spirit every day, you get angry at every turn."
"What is a gas tank?"
No! I'm angry! I can't talk to my second uncle!
I turned away angrily, not wanting to pay attention to my second uncle!
The second uncle came around to me, knelt down, thought for a moment, and said, "Did you get angry after hearing what we said?"
ah!
Can second uncle hear what I'm thinking?
"Originally, Lulu's mother was too much when she was alive, and she almost strangled me to death after she died! You still helped her!"
The second uncle laughed loudly: "Silly girl, are you angry about this?"
"snort!"
"Hey, Sister-in-law Bai is also a miserable person. She doesn't want to be confused by goblins. Is there any mother in the world who doesn't love her children? Look at you, Aunt Li." The second uncle pointed at Li in the memorial hall.
aunt.
It’s just because Lulu’s mother is a mother that I’m even more angry!
I glanced at my second uncle and sat down angrily: "Aunt Li is different from Aunt Bai!"
"Same."
"no the same!"
"Why is it different? Why don't you put yourself in my shoes and think about it? If you have a child in the future, would you be willing to be separated from your child? Will your heart hurt?"
"How do I know? I'm only six years old, it's just different!"
"Okay, okay, just pretend it's different, but there is a truth. Second uncle has to tell you. If you drive a dog into a back alley, you will be bitten. Have you forgotten why you were pinched by Lulu's mother?"
"I won't listen, I won't listen!" It's really annoying. After two days of quieting down, my second uncle started talking about big principles again.
I blocked my ears with my hands, shook my head vigorously, and ran into the house quickly.
But as soon as I walked in, I saw an uninvited guest coming to my house quietly.
