    After sending Zhang Daxian away, Liu Yue had no idea: "Sister Dou, is it possible that you really did what the master said and sent the child to the morgue?"

    Dou Shuqin seemed to have lost her soul: "The child is so young, how could I take him to a place like that?"

    "What should we do? Is it possible to watch the child being possessed by a ghost?"

    Dou Shuqin couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds. She could only treat the dead horse as a doctor: "I'll go to the township hospital to get some medicine and see if I can get better after taking it for a few more days. If it doesn't work, I'll do what the immortal said.  .¡±

    Now that Dou Shuqin had an idea, Liu Yue couldn't persuade her to say anything: "Sister Dou, it's hard to talk about this matter to others. You are the only two in the family. They all say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. If you have anything to say, you can say anything. Now that the farm is slack, I will come with you."  Call and be there.¡±

    Dou Shuqin forced a smile: "Thank you, sister Liu Yue, for taking up half a day of your time. You should come back earlier."

    Liu Yue said "Hey", closed the door and stepped back.

    People dispersed like birds, and only Dou Shuqin and Feng Jing, who was still in a coma, were left in the empty room.  Looking at the bright red "ghost blood" on the ground, Dou Shuqin felt hopeless and helpless for the first time in so many years.  She has been alone for decades through ups and downs, raising four children into a family. Although she also longs for a family reunion, the word "busy" has prevented her from having a reunion dinner for many years.  Dou Shuqin knows that life is not easy, and she cannot force her children to be by her side. As long as she can depend on her grandson, she can bear all the hardships and bear all the fatigue.  But now, my grandson is sick and the sky is falling.  She wanted to call her youngest son, but if she didn't see it with her own eyes, who would believe it?  Moreover, it would take two days and two nights to get back to Yunxi from Fujian. Even if he rushed back now, he might not be able to make it in time.

    Dou Shuqin settled her grandson and hurried to the health center at dawn.  Before going, she made up her mind. If the medicine didn't work for two more days, she would have to do what Zhang Daxian said.  It takes more than ten miles to walk from Chuwang Village to the health center. The road is full of potholes and uneven dirt roads. It is quite strenuous to walk. Every time Dou Shuqin walks, she has to stop and rest for a while. When she stops walking, she is just in time.  The health center bought the medicine before closing time.

    With the medicine, most of the stone in her heart fell away, and her steps on the return trip were much lighter than before. But just when she stepped into the border of King Chu Village, a nursery rhyme came to her ears. This nursery rhyme  It was called "Ma Lanhua", and all the children in the village could sing it, but what Dou Shuqin heard at this time was a tune without any rhyme.  The laborious singing made Dou Shuqin immediately guess the identity of the other party. She was Shan Juan, the granddaughter of Feng Laizi, who was recognized as a poor girl in the village.

    Since the death of Feng Laizi, his second wife Shao Fen has become the head of the family. As the saying goes, "If you are not a family, you will not enter the same family." Shao Fen's daughter-in-law Fan Fang is also a famous shrew from all over the country.  Shan Juan was born mentally retarded. Living in such a family, she knew what her life would be like without even thinking about it.

    Shan Juan would run to the ditch to drink cold water every day when she was thirsty. When she was hungry, she would either go to the villagers' homes to beg for it, or go to the fields to eat raw vegetables and fruits.  Shaofen's family has always been indifferent to her, whether dead or alive, as if she didn't exist.  One of Shan Juan's favorite songs to sing is "Ma Lanhua". Although she can barely sing the beginning, she can be happy for a while every time she sings it.  People were not rich at that time. Although many villagers sympathized with her plight, it was difficult for an upright official to handle household affairs. Faced with such a complicated family, no one was willing to wade into this muddy water.

    I remember once, the village director once advised Shao Fen: "One day for a couple, a hundred days of kindness, a hundred days for a couple is like the depth of the ocean. How can you, your family, just eat Feng Zizi's share of the money and leave a bite for his granddaughter? Is it possible?"  Can I lose a piece of meat?"

    Unexpectedly, Shao Fen didn't speak. Fan Fang took the lead and kicked open the door of the village committee. She said in a weird voice: "Hey, our village director is really capable. Did you see that I didn't give Shan Juan anything to eat?"  Do you think that our family is an outsider and easy to bully when they cover our house with a shit pot for no reason? My parents and fellow villagers are all here today. I will only say this once: Don¡¯t talk about our family¡¯s affairs in the future!  If anyone thinks that Shan Juan is pitiful, I have no objection to who takes her home and raises her! Everyone can say good things. As long as anyone dares to say this today, I will let Shan Juan stay at the door of someone's house tomorrow!"  When Fang made such a fuss, the village director was also disgraced. From then on, no one cared about Shan Juan's affairs.

    Dou Shuqin walked a few steps in search of the sound and saw Shan Juan squatting by the pond in a daze.  Dou Shuqin stepped forward and gave some instructions before continuing on her way.  But before she had taken a few steps, a scream came from behind. She looked back and saw that Shan Juan's body was rising and falling in the pond.

    The pond is still some distance away from the village, and there is no one around.?, the ground was not working properly. In desperation, Dou Shuqin picked up a few sorghum stalks from the ground and held them in her hands.

    "Juanzi, listen to grandma, grab the sorghum stalks, and I'll pull you up." She lay on the ground and stretched the sorghum stalks toward the center of the pond with all her strength.

    "Gulu, Gulu" Shan Juan seemed to understand Dou Shuqin's words and clenched her hands tightly.

    Seeing that Shan Juan's body was still rising and falling, Dou Shuqin was eager to save people and pulled the sorghum stalk back with all her strength.  But at the moment of pulling back, Shan Juan's hands slipped and she sank into the pond again.

    ¡°Come quickly, help!¡± Dou Shuqin screamed desperately, but there was no response.

    She turned back to the sorghum field and pulled out some longer sorghum stalks. However, when she turned back again, Shan Juan was beyond her rescue range.

    Dou Shuqin squatted helplessly on the shore. Shan Juan's calls for help became smaller and smaller. In despair, four words suddenly popped into her mind: "A life for a life."  Thinking that her grandson was still being haunted by evil spirits, she suddenly gave up the idea of ??continuing to rescue him.  At this moment, Dou Shuqin felt no emotion in her heart. She looked coldly at Shan Juan in the pond, and there was a hint of hope in her heart. She hoped that the evil ghost entrenched in her grandson would come over quickly and exchange her life for her.  Soon after, the water surface returned to calm, so calm that no ripples could be seen. Dou Shuqin cleaned up the sorghum stalks on the shore and returned home alone.

    Before night fell, the loudspeaker in the village announced the news that "Shan Juan had drowned." When such a big thing happened, almost everyone in the village went to help, except Dou Shuqin, who hid at home and closed the door.  .  She stayed by her grandson's side as if possessed by a demon, and kept chanting four words: "A life for a life."

    Three days later, Shan Juan was buried. Dou Shuqin thought that her grandson's illness would be cured, but she never expected that Feng Jing's illness would relapse. The symptoms this time were even more terrifying than before.

    Liu Yue was also shocked when she saw this: "Sister Dou, we can't delay any more. Just do what the immortal said and send her to the morgue of the county hospital!"

    At this point, she could only treat a dead horse as a living horse. With the help of the villagers, Feng Jing was rushed to the County No. 1 People's Hospital 50 miles away.  Unlike other family members of patients, Dou Shuqin had to go to the morgue as soon as she entered the door. Although the "medical troubles" were not as extreme at that time, the hospital did not want to find lice to scratch on her head. Dou Shuqin's strange behavior was noticed by the door.  Security reported the incident to the hospital's top brass.

    After the hospital leaders asked about the reason, they sent Feng Jing to the emergency ward. Later, the doctor diagnosed that Feng Jing was suffering from mild cerebral epilepsy. This disease is very common and is mostly caused by poor brain development in childhood. Fortunately,  Feng Jing's condition is not serious and can only be classified as "mild".  After two days of hospitalization and observation, the doctor prescribed a bottle of medicine worth 10 yuan and asked Dou Shuqin to take her grandson home.

    After taking the right medicine, Feng Jing finally regained his color.  However, her grandson's recovery did not make Dou Shuqin feel happy. On the contrary, her heart seemed to be blocked by a huge stone, making her breathless.  No matter how ignorant she is now, she knows that "life for life" is a scam.  What she couldn't let go of was that behind this scam, a person's life was actually sacrificed.  Dou Shuqin kept thinking that if she had not stood by and watched, she might have been able to save Shan Juan's life.  She was an honest and dutiful rural woman with a simple and kind heart. The guilt of being buried with her life was the greatest torture in her life.  From that day on, Dou Shuqin suddenly became silent and became unwilling to speak. She went to Shan Juan's grave to apologize when no one was around, which became a secret between her and Shan Juan that could not be told.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
