ordinary human life

He took a few steps and rushed home.

Open the door and see that the light in the living room is not on.

"Is my wife still up?" Hu Lijun thought to himself, and put everything on the table.

Turning around to wake his wife up, his eyes glanced at the red lantern on the table.

Since it was given by my daughter's friend, let's put it in her room.

He picked up the red lantern and pushed open the door of his daughter's room.

"Xiaoping, get up..."

then……

He froze.

The wife has woken up and is leaning on the bedside looking out the window. This is nothing. In the past few years, the wife has basically gotten up every morning like this.

But what did he see?

He saw his daughter leaning on his wife's shoulder, her eyes closed tightly, as if she was in a deep sleep.

"I... am I dreaming?" Hu Lijun showed an expression of disbelief.

Song Yiping, who was sitting on the bed, also felt something strange, she felt a person leaning on her shoulder.

So he retracted his gaze and glanced sideways.

then……

"I dreamed about Xiaobao again." Song Yiping showed a happy smile.

"Mom." Hu Qingyan called out with her eyes closed.

"What's wrong?" Song Yiping habitually reached out and stroked her messy hair behind her ears.

Then she froze, the snorting on her neck, the warm touch made her feel extremely real.

Hu Qingyan also opened her eyes. Seeing Song Yiping staring at her in a daze, she reached out and touched her cheek.

Then he seemed to think of something, and turned his head quickly, seeing Hu Lijun standing at the door of the room with a soul-inducing lamp, he couldn't help being stunned.

"Honey, I... Am I dreaming? I saw Xiaobao..." Hu Lijun said blankly.

Song Yiping heard the sound and looked up at him, then at her daughter.

Is this really a dream?

She is confused.

"Mom." At this time, Hu Qingyan sat up straight and called out again.

"Xiaobao?" Song Yiping trembled, reaching out to touch her cheek.

"Mom, it's me." Hu Qingyan choked with tears in her eyes.

"My little treasure." Song Yiping hugged her like crazy and cried.

"Mom~" Hu Qingyan couldn't bear it anymore, and cried loudly.

Looking at the mother and daughter who were crying, Hu Lijun's eyes were red, but his reason told him that this was completely impossible.

The daughter is dead and gone, how can she appear in front of them properly?

He rubbed his reddened eyes.

"I'm sorry, Mom, I'm sorry..." Hu Qingyan said loudly.

"Don't say I'm sorry, just come back, just come back..." Song Yiping stroked her cheek with an excited expression.

"Dad~" Hu Qingyan turned around and called out with tears streaming down her face.

"Little Treasure." Hu Lijun's sanity completely collapsed.

How can he care about the sudden appearance of his dead daughter now.

The lamp in his hand fell to the ground, and he strode towards his daughter.

but……

The daughter disappeared like a bubble before their eyes.

"Little Treasure." Song Yiping called out in panic.

He reached out and touched the seat where his daughter had just sat, and there was still a slight warmth.

Where is the daughter?Where is the daughter?

"Little Treasure." Hu Lijun looked around in panic.

"Out of the range of the soul lamp, you won't be able to see me." Just then, his daughter's voice came from behind him.

He turned around and saw his daughter holding a red lantern, standing where he had just stood.

Because of the height of the bed, and because Hu Lijun ran over to block the light of the soul-inducing lamp, Hu Qingyan was out of the range of light.

"Did Dad see Master Jieying?" Hu Jingyan asked, wiping away tears.

……

"Mom, this is the breakfast Dad bought for you. You can eat it." Hu Qingyan pushed the breakfast in front of Song Yiping.

Song Yiping, who was sitting next to her, looked at her daughter without blinking, fearing that the moment she looked away, her daughter would disappear completely.

"You eat, you eat, these are what you like to eat, mom is not hungry." Song Yiping immediately pushed back.

"Hee hee, then I won't be polite." Hu Qingyan picked up the chopsticks and began to eat with a sigh.

Tears dripped into the bowl while eating.

"Don't cry, don't cry, Xiaobao doesn't cry, if you have any grievances, tell mom..." Song Yiping comforted her daughter, but she couldn't help crying.

Hu Lijun, who was sitting on the other side, rubbed his eyes and said, "Okay, stop crying, it's rare... rare..."

He couldn't go on.

After crying for a while, everyone slowly calmed down.

Hu Lijun looked at the red lantern on the table and asked, "Xiaobao, it's because of this lantern that we can see you. Is the girl who gave me the lantern your friend? Does that mean that as long as you keep lighting this lantern?" Can you be with us forever?"

Song Yiping came to her senses when she heard the words, with a look of surprise on her face, she didn't care if her daughter was cunning or not, as long as her daughter could return to her side, she would not be willing.

"Huh? Girl?" Hu Qingyan looked puzzled.

"When I went to buy breakfast in the morning..."

Hu Lijun recounted what happened to him in the morning.

Hu Qingyan was a little taken aback when she heard this.

"That's Sister Peach Blossom, but this lamp is not Sister Peach Blossom's, it's for guiding adults, and... when the light is on, it's a person, and when the light is off, it's tricky, and guiding adults is the one who helps the deceased fulfill their wishes..." Hu Qingyan explained.

After listening to her daughter's explanation, Song Yiping stared blankly at the soul lamp on the table.

"Mom, you are said to be a human being, but in fact it is no different from a god."

Hu Qingyan knew what her mother was thinking, and for her, she could do anything.

Now she just wants to hide the soul lamp and not return it, so that she can see her forever.

"Alas~" Song Yiping sighed deeply after hearing the words.

"Okay, don't be sad, I... I am very happy today." Hu Qingyan said with a smile.

But the smile was extremely bitter.

"Little Treasure, what is your wish? Tell Dad that although Dad is old, he will help you fulfill it even if he works hard." Hu Lijun looked at his daughter with a serious and serious expression.

"Is that the boy? Your brother wanted to avenge you, but unfortunately he was stopped at that time." Song Yiping said with a resentful expression.

At the same time, I am a little fortunate.

"No, because he is not worth it, I just want to meet with you and say sorry, you raised me so much for nothing..." Hu Qingyan said, and she felt pain again.

Alas~ The husband and wife sighed, daughter, it would be great if you could think this way earlier.

Chapter 284 If there is an afterlife

"Xiaoping, stay with Xiaobao at home. I'll go to the vegetable market to buy some food." Hu Lijun said to the mother and daughter who were sitting on the sofa.

Hu Qingyan put her arms around her mother's arm, and told her intimate words that she had never spoken since she was an adult, as if she had returned to her childhood.

At that time, when she came back from school every day, she would tell her mother everything that happened in school.

I don't know when she stopped talking to her mother.

The most said is.

"Nothing happened."

"What can be wrong?"

"This is privacy, can you stop asking?"

"you are annoying"

……

"I'll go with Dad." Hu Qingyan jumped up and said.

"This..." Hu Lijun frowned.

In the employee family community, everyone basically knows each other, not to mention that Hu Qingyan grew up here, so she can be easily recognized by others.

Everyone knew about Hu Qingyan's death.

"Let's go together, but Xiaobao wears a hat to cover it up, if you really want to recognize him, say it's Yaoyao." Song Yiping stood up and said.

The Yaoyao she was talking about was the daughter of Hu Qingyan's uncle's family. They were about the same age and looked alike.

But obviously, they worried too much.

Seeing acquaintances along the way, they greeted them one after another, even Hu Qingyan was no exception, as if she didn't know that she was dead, nothing strange at all.

This surprised the husband and wife, but also heaved a sigh of relief.

"I don't know if your friends... the adults you mentioned are still here. Shall we treat them to a meal at noon?" Hu Lijun made two stops to check out the place that sells breakfast in the morning.

But obviously, no one was found.

"It's okay, Dad, let's go grocery shopping." Hu Qingyan said impatiently.

She used to hate shopping in the vegetable market, and she couldn't wait.

"Well, buy a carp, and I'll make you your favorite golden lionfish at noon."

"I still want to eat buckwheat."

"Okay, I'll do it for you."

"There are also bone dregs balls"

"Okay, okay, Mom will do it for you."

"Hee hee, what a rich lunch."

"As long as you like to eat, Mom will make it for you."

"Mom, you are so kind..."

"Oh, Xiaobao, from now on... later on..."
