After hearing Sang Luo's words, the couple looked at the ground.
The sun in the west shone slantly on the heads of their grandparents and grandson, and there was a long and slender shadow under his mother's feet.
But under the feet of the two Taotaos, there was a patch of sunshine, without a trace of light or shadow.
Integrity-based scratched his head in disbelief, "Let me go, there is really no trace!"
When his wife saw it, she was also shocked, "A shadow can actually turn into a human?"
【This is so amazing! This is the first time I heard that shadows can actually become real people]
[No wonder another Taotao also knows everything Taotao has experienced. It turns out that the other Taotao is her shadow! 】
[Thinking about it this way, no matter where we go, our shadow will accompany us]
[This is so healing for a friend-less person like me! Since I came to work in a big city, I have no friends around me and I feel lonely every day. But when I think about it carefully, I actually have a shadow beside me all the time, which makes me quite happy]
[I have a question, if there is no sun, will the shadow still exist? 】
"Of course it exists." Sang Luo picked up the teacup at hand and took a sip.
Then, she frowned and spit out the tea again.
The tiles in the temple were broken and moisture accumulated in the room. The tea stored in the room was also damp, and there was a musty taste in your mouth.
"In Taoist theory, everything in the world is divided into yin and yang. When a person is yang, his shadow is yin. Yin and yang are originally one, but they have different manifestations.
Shadows are always with us. Without the sun, we can only see the shadows with the naked eye, but the shadows do exist.
Moreover, only humans have shadows; demons, monsters, ghosts and monsters have no shadows. Therefore, people often use shadows to judge whether the other person is a human being. "
[When I was a child, I liked to step on my own shadow under the moon, but my grandma wouldn’t let me step on it. She said that the shadow is where the human soul is, and if you step on the shadow, your luck will become bad]
【ah? ? ? No wonder I'm so bad now, it turns out to be because I always stepped on my own shadow when I was a child]
[No wonder I became an NPC in this world. If I hadn’t stepped on shadows when I was a child, I must be a powerful hero player now]
[In our area, there are also taboos when it comes to burial. When helping the deceased to bury the deceased, you should also be careful not to let your shadow fall into the grave pit, otherwise the person's soul will be nailed in the coffin, the courage will become smaller, and it is always easier to touch unclean things]
In the live broadcast room, netizens were chatting and posting, discussing the legends and taboos about shadows.
Grandma, who is based on integrity, can't even take a bite of food.
She put down the bowl in her hand, wiped away her tears, and said to her son, "You still found me."
Honesty was stunned for a moment. He rushed to the table and sat down, "Mom? So you knew from the beginning who was the real Taotao and who was the fake?
How could you do this? ! Why did you deceive us as a couple? "
At this time, the real Taotao threw her chopsticks on the bowl and shouted to her father: "Why do you yell at my grandma! You have never cared about me since I was born, why did you say you would take me away?" , you have to pick me up!
Who are you? "
Taotao put her hands on her waist and looked at her father fiercely, her eyes almost bursting with sparks.
It was obvious that she didn't like her biological father and had no feelings for him at all.
[So this Taotao can talk? I thought he was mute]
[Maybe she simply doesn’t want to deal with her parents, so she pretends to be mute]
[This is understandable. Not long after the child was born, he abandoned her in the countryside. After leaving her for several years, she never came home to see the child or send money back. Taotao and her grandmother earned the tuition fees. If it were me, I wouldn’t want to recognize these biological parents]
[This reminds me of a piece of news about a woman abroad who didn’t want to say hello to anyone, so she pretended to be mute, and she stayed pretending for sixty years]
[Human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same. She only feels that the world is noisy! Ha ha】
Integrity-based was helpless when he saw his daughter looking so confident.
At this time, Taotao's mother came out, pointed at Taotao's nose and cursed: "Why are you so ignorant? Your father and I have not been idle outside these years! We are not busy making money to buy a house. Settling in the city and then taking you over to study?
You are such a white-eyed wolf. Because of you, we owed more than 100,000 yuan in loans in the past few years! Forget it if you don't understand me and your father.
How dare you accuse us! I think you were taught badly by your grandma! "
Taotao became even more angry when she heard her mother say this, "What do you mean by making money for me?! Have you two taken care of me in these years? Have you taken care of grandma?"
He also said that he was buying a house for me. Don’t think that I don’t know that you don’t like me and want to give me a younger brother. You are pregnant recently and cannot visit the store.
That's why you want to take me to the city to help you with your store and business. "
Although Taotao is only nine years old, she has been working in the mountains with her grandma every day since she could walk.
Since I was six years old, I have been helping my grandma pick vegetables and do simple farm work.
As the saying goes, the poor's children become rich early, so her thoughts are much more mature than those of her peers.
He talks like a little adult.
Taotao's mother was so embarrassed by Taotao's phone call.
Because what Taotao said is true.
She was indeed two months pregnant, so she wanted to take Taotao to the city quickly to help take care of the business.
After the second child was born, Taotao, as a sister, could also help take care of the child.
Taotao's grandmother felt unhappy when she saw Taotao quarreling with her parents. A few old tears fell on the peeling paint table, leaving a brown-black water stain.
Taotao took out the forty yuan from her pocket, which was the money her father had just bought her for a Barbie doll.
She put the money into grandma's hand, "Grandma, don't cry. Look, we have the money for next semester's tuition!"
Taotao is a left-behind child and due to the country's preferential education policies, her tuition for one semester only costs 50 yuan.
Fifty yuan wasn't much, but it was a lot of money for her grandma.
A handful of vegetables costs one yuan, and she needs to sell fifty handfuls to raise enough money for tuition.
Grandma Taotao wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said to Honesty: "Baozi, your father went down the well and passed away when you were three years old. I raised you by myself, and I raised money for you to get a wife." Son.
After you give birth to a child, I will also take care of you.
I have no complaints, it is my responsibility to give birth to you and raise you.
But I really can’t bear to leave Taotao! I am an old woman who lives alone in the mountains every day. If Taotao also leaves, how can I survive if you ask your mother!
I really have no hope of living! "
The tears in Grandma Taotao's eyes fell one by one, flowing along the wrinkles and ravines on her face to the edge of her chin.
After hearing these words, the Honesty couple also felt guilty and lowered their heads, embarrassed to speak again.
Taotao hugged her grandma, "Grandma! Don't worry, I won't leave! Taotao will always be with you. When Taotao goes to college and can make money, he will take grandma to live with Taotao in the city. Taotao I won’t let grandma live alone in the mountains!” (End of Chapter)
