Chapter 148 Relatives meet
Of the two rooms, Su Shi naturally wanted to stay alone, but after entering the room, they had no interest in chatting for the time being, just waiting for the other party to finish the day's dinner.
After the meal arrived, Lu Xuan and Yan Ruyu ate casually.
It wasn¡¯t until after nine o¡¯clock in the evening that he patted the child¡¯s head and said, ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡±
The child raised his eyes: "Can you see your parents?"
"Yeah." Lu Xuan nodded.
"That's great." The child had a slight smile on his face.
Or maybe it was because he gradually understood that after this reunion, parting was waiting for him, so even though he was smiling, he was not overly childish in excitement and joy.
Lu Xuan didn¡¯t say anything more. He carried him out and knocked on the door next door.
The two rooms are adjacent to each other. After going upstairs, Su Shi went back to the room by himself. Now he knocked on the door but there was no response.
When the aunt who was passing by cleaning saw Lu Xuan knocking on the door, she couldn't help but said: "Go to sleep, the sound insulation here is pretty good, why don't you knock a little louder?"
Lu Xuan responded with a smile: "I originally agreed to go out for a supper now. Since he fell asleep, let him fall asleep. He is probably tired."
While he was talking, Yan Ruyu, who was standing next to him, pulled the hood of the clothes covering the child to cover the child's face.
This town is neither big nor small. After all, it is a town. Strictly speaking, the population is not large.
But even so, many people are familiar with it, not to mention that there is a funeral at the moment.
There are even many children¡¯s relatives in this hotel.
Yan Ruyu¡¯s movements completely covered the child¡¯s appearance and attracted the aunt¡¯s attention. But from her perspective, she could only hold the two small hands around Lu Xuan¡¯s neck.
The child only wore a small chain woven with red rope on his hand. The rope was an ordinary red rope, and there was no special pendant hanging on it, so it was not identifiable. No one would associate the child with the person who had just died in the town. .
Sure enough, after the aunt glanced over, she just said: "This child is about five or six years old. Just put him on the bed when he falls asleep. How tired is it to carry him out together?"
Lu Xuan smiled: "It's okay, I'm afraid he will wake up and make a noise later."
"Oh," the aunt nodded, "Then I'll go clean first, you guys are busy."
After the aunt left, Lu Xuan didn't knock on Su Shi's door again. Since he couldn't knock, it meant that Su Shi might not be in the room at the moment. As for where he went, probably only he knew.
Lu Xuan and Yan Ruyu went downstairs and walked to the place they had visited in the evening.
It is now past nine o'clock in the evening. It is reasonable to say that the town will gradually calm down, but this night is destined not to be as peaceful as usual.
The closer the distance, the clearer the sound of blowing and beating. Apparently, the Taoist priests who were specially invited were still working until this moment.
Walking closer, you can hear the faint and suppressed crying again.
Since leaving the room, the body of the motionless child who had been lying on Lu Xuan's shoulder swayed.
Lu Xuan patted him on the back: "It's okay, don't worry."
The child was silent for a while, then nodded: "Yes."
At this time, the distant relatives who came to attend the funeral gradually dispersed, but the close relatives still stayed here. The atmosphere in the small courtyard was not as quiet as Lu Xuan imagined.
Lu Xuan sighed helplessly, but found someone walking out while wiping tears.
After taking a closer look, I realized that this person was the child¡¯s mother.
He thought he was going to walk in in front of everyone, but he walked out on his own initiative. Lu Xuan felt happy, took a few steps forward, and said in a low voice: "Hello."
The woman who was crying didn't seem to hear Lu Xuan's words at all, and still walked forward. It wasn't until Lu Xuan spoke again that she looked up blankly and said in a hoarse voice: "Hello hello, what can I do for you?"
The hoarse voice was caused by crying for too long, and even because she had been crying for too long, her expression looked a little hollow, so hollow that even strangers would feel distressed when they looked at her.
"There are some things I want to tell you. Can you find a quieter place?" Lu Xuan said. Some things are not suitable to be said in public.
The woman then looked at Lu Xuan seriously, and then at the child who was held in Lu Xuan's arms. Her eyes moved down and landed on the looming feet even though they were covered by the coat.
She was stunned for a while before whisperingFor a long time, we have been thinking of ways to treat him, but we had no money, so we had to work outside and left Ruirui to my mother. "
"Some time ago, Rui Rui's illness suddenly worsened. We took him to a large hospital for a checkup. The doctor said"
The man¡¯s voice gradually became choked with sobs.
¡°When we brought Ruirui back, his condition was already very bad.¡±
"Until three days ago, Ruirui couldn't hold on and passed away in her sleep."
"My mother and I were so preoccupied with Rui Rui that we didn't have time to care about anything else. When we came to our senses, my mother was gone."
"When I found my mother again, it was at the foot of the mountain"
"It would be great if we could find out earlier. Mom wouldn't and wouldn't leave."
When he spoke to the end, his voice became softer and softer, and his heart was full of guilt, and this guilt only existed for the old man.
Until now, Lu Xuan finally understood why the woman had to kneel in front of the old man, cry bitterly, and say sorry again and again.
At this moment, the old man spoke.
"I can't bear to leave Rui Rui. Rui Rui will be scared to go alone. I have taken Rui Rui with me since she was a child. When he leaves, I will always go with him. You can rest assured that I will accompany him."
The old man's tone was very calm, as if he was just talking about going out to play and company, not death.
The child in the arms of the old man suddenly raised his head: "But grandma, didn't you say you wanted to take me to climb the mountain with you? I agreed. Grandma, why did you slip down the mountain?"
A child cannot understand the conversation between adults and the profound meaning. He only understands the part he can understand.
The old man lowered his head: "Ruirui agreed?"
"Yes, I agreed," the child nodded, "because Rui Rui hasn't been to the mountains for a long time. Grandma took Rui Rui to the mountains. Rui Rui is so happy."
After being excited for a while, the child's voice gradually became lower: "But grandma slipped down. Ruirui couldn't hold grandma back and slipped down too. Grandma, you ignored me. Didn't grandma say before that you can't go to that place?" Grandma is so disobedient."
The old man hugged the child tightly: "Grandma will stay with you from now on, okay?"
"good."
Hearing this, Lu Xuan finally understood where the sense of dissonance came from.
He had only listened to the child's words before and thought that the old man took him to the mountains with him. Even the old man took the child with him when he committed suicide. He also preconceived the idea that this was a vicious incident.
It now seems that the grandma was reluctant to let the child walk alone on Huangquan Road, and she was unwilling to bear the child to be alone, so she went to the mountain to commit suicide alone. However, she did not expect that when she committed suicide, the child was always following her.
The child has no memory of dying in his sleep. He only has the memory of accompanying his grandma to the mountain and then falling together. He also thought that he fell from the mountain, so his soul naturally carried a bit of anger from the accidental death.
He doesn¡¯t know how to evaluate the old man¡¯s feelings for the child.
But the current situation may be what the old man wanted, not to let the child go to hell alone, and she did it.
As for emotional matters, the child has been ill since he was a child, and his parents had to work hard outside because of his illness. There are only two grandparents and grandchildren left in the town. Not only does the child rely on the old man, but the old man also relies on the child. They are each other's spirit. sustenance.
The person who accompanied him day and night is gone, and the old man has also lost the motivation to live.
The ghost arrives again.
The old man looked at his son and daughter-in-law: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Ruirui and won't let him be bullied."
The child looked up at her again and said innocently in a childish voice: "Grandma, are we leaving? Where are we going?"
¡°Go to a place far, far away.¡±
"Where is that far, far away place?"
"Grandma doesn't know either."
"Ruirui knows that we are ghosts, and ghosts have to go where ghosts live. Then won't we be able to see our parents in the future?"
"Grandma will stay with you, okay?"
"Okay," Ruirui nodded seriously, then looked back at the two people who couldn't help crying, and waved, "Goodbye, mom and dad, Ruirui is accompanied by her grandma, she is not alone. Ruirui will miss you in the future. I miss you every day, so much."
"Ruirui, mom and dad will miss you too. They miss you so much." The woman said seriously, wiping the tears that fell. But every time she wiped her hands, they were all wet and couldn't be wiped away. .
Until the ghost messenger left with the old and the young.
¡°It seems like every time we go out to work, Ruirui waves goodbye to us.¡± The man whispered.
"Just this sentence poked the woman's tear ducts again. She couldn't bear it anymore, squatting on the ground and crying loudly. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com).
