Lian Ge didn't turn his head, moved his feet, walked towards the direction where the couple left, and walked into the village.

Behind him, the old woman fell to the ground as if she had been slapped in the face, lying on the ground, crying and howling again,

"...Beating someone, beating someone to death, and the ghost is hurting someone again, let's all come and see... ah..."

Lying on the ground and howling dryly, followed closely, as if she had been slapped, the old woman screamed again,

"...The ghost is killing people, the ghost is killing people..."

Getting more vigorous, the old woman was spitting, yelling, howling dryly,

This time, a few people nearby saw this, and hurried to the four sides and walked a little further.

Let the old woman howl fiercely, but just watch from afar.It seems that they are afraid that the ghosts will find them.

The boy who had gone away heard the movement behind him, stood still, turned his head, and looked at the howling old woman on the ground with some doubts in his eyes.

He looked around again, looked around, and finally looked at Lian Ge, a little curious, puzzled, looked at Lian Ge,

Seeing the boy's gaze, Lian Ge smiled slightly at the boy.

……

"...Grandma, are you okay..."

At the entrance of the village, among the few children who set off firecrackers, one of them was holding an unlit firecracker in his hand, and looked at the old woman who was crying and splashing on the ground with his feet on his feet.

After hesitating for a while, he still ran towards the old woman, stretched out his hand to support the old woman,

"...It's okay, it's okay... My grandson is still sensible, my precious grandson is so sensible, he's not like that, he's not like some people, he's not a good thing to be alive, and he's still tossing around the village when he's dead..."

"...Let me tell you, don't try to imitate that person...that means you're dead, otherwise you'll see that when he grows up, you can see what kind of good he can be..."

The old woman stood up, smiled and said to her grandson, then turned her head in the direction of the village, and said in a strange voice,

"...I see, grandma..."

There was some doubt in his eyes, but the child nodded.

"...It's good to know, my grandson is the most obedient, our grandson, it doesn't look like some people...some people, I think they are born to be harmful...and some people, even their own children I can't control it well, look how obedient my grandson is..."

"...Grandma, the chicken at Aunt Chen's house was when I was playing with firecrackers..."

"...you dead boy, what are you talking about, you dead boy...my grandson is the most obedient, don't talk nonsense."

Looking up, there were a few people far away, the old woman grabbed the child and said,

"Don't talk nonsense...do you hear me?"

"...Understood, grandma..."

……

Along this village road, Lian Ge from the village entrance,

Passing past the houses at the entrance of the village, Lian Ge walked into the village, and then walked towards the village.

Not far in front of him, the boy was walking along the road, standing still from time to time, turning his head to look at Lian Ge,

Knowing that Lian Ge could see him, he seemed to want to say something to Lian Ge, but was a little hesitant and afraid.

In front of the boy, on the village road a little further away, the boy's parents, the couple, still bowed their heads, walking quickly towards the village.

Along the way, villagers gathered in twos and threes in the yards of each house. When the couple passed by, they stopped talking one after another, looked towards the couple, and waited for the couple to walk away, followed by each other. wearing something,

As if sensing those gazes, the couple couldn't stop walking faster and lower their heads, walking towards the village.

Few villagers greeted the couple, but the couple just forced a smile, agreed, and walked away quickly.

……

Passing by a few more houses, near the end of the village, the couple arrived at the place, walked into the yard, opened the door, walked in, and closed the door again.

The boy looked at Lian Ge, hesitated, and then ran into the room.

Seeing the boy enter that house and stand in front of this family's yard, Lian Ge stopped again,

Turning his gaze, he looked into the courtyard of this family,

There is nothing in the yard, just scattered paper money that has not been cleaned up, some burnt paper money ashes, and wax oil dripping in the yard.

Beyond the courtyard is the door of this family's main room. Some of the mottled main room doors are ajar. It seems that the lights in the room are not turned on. Through the gaps left, some darkness in the room is revealed.

Moved away again, Lian Ge walked into the courtyard of this family, and walked to the door of the main room which was concealed.

"... dong dong."

"...Which one?"

Stretching out his hand, Lian Ge knocked on the door of this family,

The voice of the man from the previous couple sounded immediately, and after a sound of footsteps, the half-hidden door was pulled open.

"...Young man, is that you?"

His eye sockets were still a little red. Seeing that it was Lian Ge, the man forced a smile and greeted him.

"Brother, passing by here, I'm a little thirsty, can I ask for a glass of water?"

"...Of course...Thank you for what happened just now, young man."

In a hurry, the man opened the door of the main room a little more, stepped aside,

"...Young man, you go into the room first, sit in the room first, and I'll get you some water..."

Greeting, the man walked into the house,

Lian Ge walked into the main room with strides,

In the main room, the lights were not turned on, and it was a bit dark.

There was a table, and beside the table, the woman from the previous couple was sitting there, with her head down, as if she was a little absent-minded,

The boy was squatting next to his mother, looking at his mother, also silent,

"...Young man, it's you... you sit first, you sit..."

Seemingly hearing the movement, the woman stood up, wiped her reddened eye sockets, took a stool and placed it beside Lian Ge,

"...Young man, sit down first, sit down first, I'll pour you some water..."

The man was also talking at the side, turned around, and walked towards the water dispenser next to the main room,

Walking to the middle of the main room, the man turned on the light, walked to the water dispenser, squatted down, and took out a disposable paper cup from under the water dispenser.

Poured water under the water dispenser, but the water was half filled, and it was gone.

"...I'm sorry, I'm sorry... There's no water in the water dispenser, young man, wait, wait, I'm going to boil the water now..."

His eyes were still a little red, and as he hurriedly spoke, the man walked towards the kitchen.

The water is boiling

"...I'll go."

"……it is good."

The dazed woman standing beside raised her head and stopped the man. The man hurriedly walked towards the kitchen stopped, looked at his wife and nodded, and answered.

The woman turned around, walked into the kitchen, raised her hand again, seemed to wipe her eyes, and started to work in the kitchen.

The sound of the faucet being turned on, the sound of water flowing, and the sound of the gas stove being ignited came from the kitchen and echoed in the quiet main room.

The man stood where he was, holding the half-empty paper cup in his hand, as if in a daze,

Next to him, the boy stood at the door of the kitchen, looked at his father in the main room, and then at his mother in the kitchen, remained silent, and gradually lowered his head.

……

"...Sorry, young man...Thank you for what happened just now."

After standing still again, the man put the paper cup half filled with water beside him, and then walked up to Lian Ge,

"My brother thanked you just now."

Sitting on the stool, he glanced at the boy, and then at the man standing beside him, Lian Ge responded aloud.

Hearing the sound, the man nodded, stood up again, and sat down on a stool next to him.

"...I'm sorry, young man, I don't know when there will be no water in the water dispenser in the house. It will take a while to boil the water, so sit down for a while..."

The man turned his head, and said to Lian Ge again, just talking, maybe he felt that he had said it before, and stopped speaking, looking in front of him, a little lost in thought, and fell silent.

Glancing at the man, Lian Ge didn't make a sound, turned his gaze, and glanced at the boy again,

The boy raised his head again, looked at his father, then turned his head to look at Lian Ge, hesitantly, standing where he was.

……

"...Excuse me, young man, I was distracted..."

The eye sockets were redder than before. The man looked in front of him, and after being in a daze for a while, he raised his head again and apologized to Lian Ge.

"Brother, you don't have to apologize all the time, you haven't done anything wrong."

Turning his gaze back, Lian Ge looked at the man and said something out loud.

Hearing the sound, the man fell silent again,

"thanks……"

He forced a smile on his face, not knowing what he was thanking for, the man thanked him, his smile faded away, and he fell silent.

Looking back, Lian Ge didn't say anything more.

In the main room, it became more and more quiet,

Only in the kitchen was the sound of boiling water.

……

"... Gulu Gulu..."

After a while, the sound of boiling water overwhelmed the sound of the gas stove, and the stove in the kitchen was boiling.

Except for the sound of boiling water, the kitchen was still quiet.

In the main room, in a daze, the man on the ground in front of him seemed to hear the sound of boiling water. He paused, raised his head, and looked into the kitchen.

"Huirou..."

Scream, the man yelled,

"Eh……"

In the kitchen, after waiting for a while, a woman's answer sounded,

Immediately afterwards, in the kitchen, the sound of the gas stove disappeared, and some rustling sounds of busy work sounded.

"...the water is boiling."

Carrying a kettle, the woman walked out of the kitchen again,

Eye sockets are redder than before,

"... What did you call me just now?"

Turning her head again, the woman asked the man.

The man shook his head, stood up, reached out to take the pot of water that had just boiled,

"……Let me do it."

"……it is good."

The man took the pot of water, went under the water dispenser and took out a paper cup.

The woman stood where she was, answered, and lost her mind again.

……

Stamping her feet again, the woman turned around, stretched out her hands to tidy up some messy things on the table in the main room, put them away, and stopped her hands again,

"...It's almost noon...Xiaowang...Xiaowang...there are some eggs left in the house, I'll cook him some poached eggs, he likes to eat...so as not...so as not to be hungry..."
