Those barking dogs are also dogs, haha. Isn’t the mother-in-law related to those dogs?
Ms. Liu imagined countless scenes in her mind and cursed a lot. Suddenly she felt that she had made a profit and had taken advantage of her mother-in-law. She walked with a brisk pace and was in a good mood.
Mrs. Tan saw all this from Mrs. Liu and shook her head, "This is heartless!"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quietly left the village and came to the river dam behind the village, facing the direction of Mianniu Mountain.
Mr. Tan asked Mr. Sun, "Where is Wang Shuanzi's grave roughly located?"
Sun and Bao Suyun discussed in a low voice, and then both pointed to a certain direction: "If I remember correctly, it should be that direction."
Tan frowned.
At this time, Mrs. Liu came up and said, "Third sister-in-law, fifth brother and sister, be more confident and remove the word 'if'."
Then, Mrs. Liu pointed to the direction that Mrs. Sun and others had pointed to before: "I must be there."
Tan nodded with satisfaction.
Then place all the items needed for burning incense in a row in that direction.
Mrs. Tan held a piece of papyrus in her hand, lit it and threw it into the earthenware basin she brought in front of her, mumbling something in her mouth.
Sun and Bao Suyun both kept silent in tacit agreement. They stood behind Tan and accompanied her quietly.
Mrs. Liu pricked up her ears and listened, and she heard Mrs. Tan seeming to be telling Wang Shuanzi not to play tricks, not to be weird, and to wish Yang Huamei all the best if he really had a spirit.
Because in the last sentence, Tan said this: "...If you scare Mei'er out of your life, it will be up to you who will help you support your children and who will provide for your lonely old man to live in his old age. Where will you be?" Weigh it carefully, don’t just do it here and there because I haven’t picked up your bones for ten days and a half, you’re really in a hurry, there’s no one to pick up your bones, so just stay there for the rest of your life!”
Tan finished these words in one breath, clapped his hands, threw the half-burned toilet paper into the basin, then patted his knees and stood up.
Mrs. Liu secretly praised Mrs. Tan in her heart. She was indeed an old lady. She even spoke so domineeringly about burning paper money for dead ghosts.
What others used to be kind words and pleas and discussions turned into threats and intimidation when it came to the old lady.
Great guy!
"It's almost done, pack up and go back!"
Mrs. Tan stood up, looked at the mountains of Heiwei across the river, and ordered her daughters-in-law behind her.
Sun and Bao Suyun nodded, came forward and squatted on the ground to pack their things.
A few people had packed up and were just about to turn around and prepare to leave.
Tan suddenly stopped, turned his head, and looked behind him suspiciously.
Behind her were Sun and Bao Suyun. Seeing Tan looking like this, the two sisters-in-law were also very surprised.
"Mom, what's wrong?" asked Sun.
Mrs. Tan still looked suspicious, looking past the two of them, looking behind them and around them.
The old lady remained silent, but looked around as if she was looking for something. Her expression and movements really made Sun and Bao Suyun a little scared.
Although Mrs. Liu was also scared, she was more excited.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Ms. Liu asked.
Mrs. Sun also asked: "Mom, what are you looking for? Did you drop something? Tell us and we will help you find it together!"
Mrs. Tan's eyes fell on the three daughters-in-law in front of her, "I won't tell you, because I'm afraid you will be scared if I tell you!"
Sun's and Bao Suyun's expressions changed and they looked at each other.
Mrs. Liu clapped her hands and said, "Old lady, look at what you said. If you really don't want us to be afraid, just don't say anything."
"When you say that, half of it is left and half is left, it makes people not afraid but also frightened! Just tell me what to do, right?"
Mrs. Tan stared at Mr. Liu: "What should I do? I'll leave you here!"
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she immediately screamed: "That can't be done, I'm the only one in this damn place..."
Before he finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Mr. Tan.
"listen!"
The three daughters-in-law looked at each other with six eyes, one looking at me and another looking at you, all looking confused.
"Mom, what do you want us to hear?" Ms. Liu asked again.
Apart from the mountain breeze and the voices of a few of them talking, there is no other sound here.
"Mom, what on earth did you hear?" Mrs. Liu chased after Ms. Tan and asked.
Neither Sun nor Bao Suyun dared to ask, and both wanted to stop Liu from asking, but they didn't have time.
Mrs. Tan looked around, her face changed in the moonlight and became a little pale.
"Didn't you three hear someone calling me?" Ms. Tan asked the three wives in front of her.
The three daughters-in-law shook their heads.
Sun and Bao Suyun were already close to each other subconsciously.
Although Mrs. Liu was also afraid, she was more excited.
She swallowed hard and asked Tan, "Mom, did you recognize who called you? What did they call you?"
"Fourth sister-in-law, please stop asking." Bao Suyun whispered.
Mrs. Sun also nodded, "Yes, let's go back first. If we have anything to say, we can talk about it when we get home."
The third and fifth children are both in the county town at the moment. It's better for the Sun family. Da'an, Xiaoan and the He family are all here, so the house is still very lively.
But Bao Suyun's side was not so good.
Dabao and Guiling went to the county town to take care of business on the eighth day of the first lunar month. Mianmian went to the capital to find Luo Fengtang that night, so Mianmian now lives in her parents' house and helps Bao Suyun take care of her niece.
The fifth house was relatively deserted, and they were all female dependents, so it was inevitable that Bao Suyun was afraid and did not dare to listen.
In addition, like Sun, she is naturally timid, and she is the kind of woman that a man can feel the desire to protect at the first sight.
In Yang Ruoqing's words, Bao Suyun is the kind of woman who smells like tea.
It's just that other women are green tea ladies, but Bao Suyun is a real good tea.
Okay, I'm going to go too far now. Now, there is a woman who is not teay at all and even looks like a tomboy. That woman is Mrs. Liu.
Ms. Liu was also afraid, but the more afraid she was, the more she wanted to ask. She pulled Ms. Tan's sleeve and kept asking: "Mom, tell us, who is calling you, and what did they say? It's like this Are you still calling?"
Mrs. Tan shook off Mrs. Liu's hand, looked at the pitiful faces of Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun who were scared to death, and said impatiently: "Let's go, let's talk about it when we get back."
Sun and Bao Suyun quickly followed, waiting for these words!
So, on the way back, Mrs. Sun and Bao Suyun walked up to Mrs. Tan, snuggling up to each other, while Mrs. Liu held Tan's arm and walked behind.
As Mrs. Liu walked, she asked Mrs. Tan: "Mom, they are too timid to listen, and they can't help you share your worries. Tell me secretly, who was calling you just now!"
Mrs. Tan rolled her eyes at Mrs. Liu, "You are so capable, why don't you guess?"
"You want me to guess?" Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up, "Brother?"
The eldest brother in the Liu family's mouth is naturally the eldest son of the Tan family, Yang Hua'an, who has been deceased for many years.
Tan's expression changed and she shook her head: "Nonsense, it's none of your business!"
Mr. Liu rolled his eyes: "Second brother?"
Mrs. Tan pinched Mrs. Liu directly: "Don't talk nonsense, it's not true!"
