Madonna, resentment of ghosts

Fang Chuan knocked the door three times.After the third stroke, the door opened.A stooped mother-in-law stood at the door, looking at them.

He Xing shrank behind Fang Chuan, as if he didn't want to go in.

Fang Chuan took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and showed it to the mother-in-law.After the mother-in-law looked at the jade pendant, a little light flashed in her cloudy eyes.She turned and walked away without saying anything, and Fang Chuan followed with He Xing.

He Xing pulled Fang Chuan by the corner of his clothes and observed the yard as he walked.The pigsty was empty, and there was dust on the door.She felt that something was wrong, but no matter how much she tugged on Fang Chuan's clothes and how she tried to walk back, Fang Chuan was unmoved.

When he reached the threshold, He Xing simply stood outside the threshold and refused to go in.Fang Chuan turned his head and glanced at her, then hugged her.At that moment, He Xing heard Fang Chuan whisper to her, "Just eat what you have, don't talk too much."

The two sat at the table, and there was not only dust on the table, but also dark insects crawling around.He Xing really didn't want to take another look at the table, so he went to see where the mother-in-law had gone.It's better if you don't look at it. If you look carefully, your mother-in-law is pulling dishes from a broken cabinet.The cabinet is even dirtier, there should be things like mice.

She wiped the dishes frantically with her dirty sleeves, though she didn't get much clean.She put a few snacks on the plate, moved her little feet, and walked over with some joy.She kept inviting Fang Chuan with her eyes, and He Xing on the side felt that this mother-in-law exuded the smell of the New Year in the village, full of joy.

Fang Chuan frowned and smiled, and broke off some for He Xing to eat first.

He Xing was already a little hungry, although he was not happy, he still took it.She thought she had to resist the desire to vomit, but after taking the first bite, He Xing found that she couldn't stop at all.

It was better than anything she had ever eaten.

Compared with her, Fang Chuan eats slower and looks better.She and He Xing ate without saying a word, while her mother-in-law stood aside, occasionally adding something to the plate.The room was quiet, no one spoke.

Time passed quickly in this quiet room.After the second tray of pastries was half empty, the sky outside revealed a little light.

"My lord, it's almost dawn." The mother-in-law said suddenly.She smiled, with tears in her eyes.

"I followed my grandmother's teachings and waited for the adults to come. Now that I have my wish, I can finally leave."

He Xing didn't understand why this mother-in-law was laughing and crying, she just sat there in a daze.At this time Fang Chuan conveniently gave her a piece of snack and sent her out to play.

He Xing walked out obediently and played around in the yard by himself.

Fang Chuan turned his back to his mother-in-law and kept looking outside.She knew that the people behind were becoming transparent bit by bit.Back then she said to the girl she saved:

"If you insist on repaying me, then give me some snacks. You don't have to give it now. When I pass by later, you can entertain me."

This time Fang Chuan went to the capital, suddenly remembered this agreement, and walked here.It's just that she seems to have come a bit late. The grandchildren of this family are almost dead, and there are no descendants left.

When Fang Chuan sensed that there was an elderly mother-in-law guarding the house, he realized something.She wasn't sure, but wanted to come in and take a look.

So she knocked on the door.

At this moment, Fang Chuan looked at He Xing who was playing outside and smiled a little.Should she also go out later and say the same thing to He Xing, saying please remember to entertain me in the future?

He Xing, who was playing, suddenly looked up at the sky and shouted: "Miss sister, the sun is out, look!"

"Does it look good?" Fang Chuan walked out while talking.The moment she crossed the threshold, the old man behind turned into countless dust in the morning light.

Fang Chuan clearly heard her mother-in-law's last words before she left: "Grandmother also told me one thing. She said that you are always alone, and she hopes that someone can accompany you. My lord, I think Until you brought a child here this time, it must have been like this."

Already?Already alone?This child is not his own daughter, but a rescued person.If it has to matter...

Fang Chuan walked into the yard, looked at He Xing, and asked, "Why didn't you want to come in at the beginning?"

He Xing replied honestly: "Scared."

Fang Chuan was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt relieved.Children's eyes and hearts are cleaner than other people's. It's normal to be more sensitive to ghosts, and there is really nothing special about them.She thinks too much.

But the disappointed expression that flashed across Fang Chuan's face was caught by He Xing.She realized that she had said the wrong thing, and felt a little uneasy.Did I answer something wrong just now, or did I offend this young lady?She's been thrown once and doesn't want to be thrown a second time.

He Xing looked at Fang Chuan, and wanted to ask again, but heard noisy voices coming from the door.At this time, her reaction was much stronger than when she saw a ghost, and she ran to the pigsty.

Fang Chuan said helplessly, "Why are you running there?"

"It must be the rogues! There were rogues who came into our village before, and my mother hid us in the pigsty." He Xing, who was squatting in the pigsty, tried to pull Fang Chuan in, "Miss sister, this I am very experienced in this area. Come here and we will hide together."

Fang Chuan looked at the little man curled up in the pigsty speechlessly.After she turned her gaze, she was facing a group of people with swords.

This kid's intuition is so accurate.However, He Xing was only half right. These people were holding weapons, but they were obviously not rogues.

That is the dead man of the Third Prince.

One of them pointed at Fang Chuan, almost speechless in fright: "Live, live!"

It turned out that the third prince wanted to reward his dead soldiers with land.Maybe it was because of drinking too much, the third prince said: "Ride your horses and run to your death. After you run around, the circled land will be yours."

This sounds good, of course, but the only land the Third Prince can give them is this piece of land outside the city.Several people struggled for a few days, but they couldn't be circled.

Because this room blocks the way.Someone thought about demolishing this place, but it was very evil, and whoever moved it would be unlucky.Everyone said there must be ghosts here.

After hearing this, Fang Chuan felt a little dizzy.Because she found that she had unintentionally spoiled the good deeds of the third prince...
