It was night, Zhao's father and Zhao Jizu came back from the fields and found that the yard was empty, several rooms were dark, and the kitchen was clean, but the aroma of meat could be faintly smelled.
Zhao Jizu frowned and was about to get angry when he saw some vegetables placed in the pot, a plate of crispy pork, a bowl of chicken, and a pot of chicken soup that seemed to have been passed through many layers of water. After taking a sip, there was no taste of chicken soup.
"What's going on?" Zhao's father walked over and saw the chicken soup. He didn't know what was wrong. He felt nauseated and ran outside to retching. Hearing the sound of his father's retching, Zhao Jizu also felt a tightness in his chest.
He called Su Tang's name loudly, but no one answered. He called out the names of several daughters, but no one answered.
He wanted to rush into the house, but found that he was always wandering around the kitchen, and his mind suddenly became clearer. Could it be that Jin Bao deliberately prevented him from going into the house? The thought in his mind had just come up, but she pressed it down again. Zhao Jizu thought, how could this be possible?His son should be protecting him, how could he protect that stupid goose-like woman?
As soon as Zhao's mother came back from drawing lots, she saw the two men wandering around the kitchen door and asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
Father Zhao was speechless and extremely uncomfortable. Zhao Jizu told him about Su Tang not leaving food for them, "It's really outrageous, Mom, she is becoming more and more disobedient, please don't pull me away." , I have to teach her a lesson today, even if Jin Bao comes today, I have to make her admit her mistake."
Mother Zhao was also angry. The old hen she had raised carefully was killed like this. In the end, she couldn't even take a bite. When she saw that the bowl was full of chicken heads, necks, and butts, not even a chicken foot was left for her.
There was also the chicken soup, which was like washing a pot of water. Moreover, she saw that the three girls had brought back a lot of wild vegetables today, but why didn't they find any? They were all a bunch of gluttons.
He didn't stop his angry son, and rolled up his sleeves, planning to settle the accounts together with today's day's accounts. But the strange thing was that no matter how he walked, they all returned to the kitchen, as if a pair of invisible hands were forcibly removing them. Come back.
As if she thought of something, cold sweat broke out on Mother Zhao's forehead. She held her son's hand and her voice trembled: "Could it be the mountain god who is protecting her?"
What a joke, how could the mountain god protect Su Tang and the others? Zhao Jizu thought he was crazy.
"Son, the mountain god is getting married. It's our turn to have a baby. This is Nian Di's name." Mother Zhao took out the wooden sign and wrote the name. She wrote Nian Di instead of the eldest Sidi because of Sidi's age. Big and able to work.
"Mom!" Zhao Jizu couldn't believe how old Niandi was, only 11 years old.
But what just happened was so mysterious that he didn't dare to go to Su Tang's house again.
When the sisters heard the noise outside the house, they couldn't help but look up at their mother who was making milk powder. They heard her mother say without raising her head, "Keep doing your homework and be more serious."
Su Tang picked up a daughter and started breastfeeding. Zhao Ying, who was eating, looked at Su Tang with her eyes fixed, as if she wanted to keep her in mind. Zhao Jiao did the same.
Su Tang hummed softly with a soft voice. After eating, the two daughters gradually fell asleep again, unaffected by the loud noise outside the house.
Zhao Simeng and Zhao Niansong looked at each other, with a tacit understanding not to speak, and lowered their heads to continue doing their homework. Zhao Xing frowned at the pinyin in front of him, feeling that it was all a bunch of ghost symbols and he didn't understand anything.
But her mother asked her to look at it, but she could only stare at it, trying to catch Tian Gezi's flowers.
Staring at it, she suddenly asked, "Mom, can I have a piece of crispy pork?" "You ate two large chicken drumsticks tonight. Are you hungry again?" Zhao Niansong asked.
Zhao Simeng looked worried, "Don't eat, it will burst your stomach."
Zhao Xing looked at the cold chicken placed by the window, the chicken blood offal mixed with fennel and vegetables, and the little crispy meat that always tempted her, and swallowed, "My mouth wants to eat it."
Seeing the pitiful look on her little sister's face, Zhao Simeng couldn't bear it. She looked at her mother and saw her mother shaking her head, "I really ate too much tonight. Eating more will increase the burden on my stomach. Eat it tomorrow and cook chicken noodle soup for me tomorrow morning." you eat."
"I'll cook it!" Zhao Simeng raised his hand and said, "Mom, sleep a little longer and I'll cook it before I go to school."
Afraid of Su Tang's rejection, Zhao Simeng continued: "I want mom to eat the chicken noodle soup I cooked."
Su Tang nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, then mom is waiting for your chicken noodle soup."
Late at night, several children were sleeping soundly. Su Tang looked at the corner and met Ant's eyes.
Xu Wen, who lives in Aunt Yu's house, rubbed her eyes and said to Qi Yue, "I always feel that Niansong's mother can see my ants."
"How could it be? Your ant is so small and hidden in such a secret place. How could she see it?" Qi Yue said, comforting: "Don't think too much, have a good rest, and try to be within half a month." survive in the village."
Xu Wen nodded. It was not that they had not thought about preventing the tragic fate of the girls in the village, but according to players who had experienced this dungeon, no matter how far they took the girls, when the mission started, everyone would Returning to this village, she was forced to participate in the mountain god's wedding and played a hide-and-seek game with the evil spirits in the village.
Xu Wen closed her eyes and lay on the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep. Su Tang's face always appeared in her mind. That woman's name was Su Tang. What a coincidence, her mother was also named Su Tang.
Su Tang, who was worried about Xu Wen, appeared at the river at this time. She fished out a few people who had fallen into the water and put them on the bank. Suddenly a head appeared in the river. She opened the long hair in front of her. He asked aggrievedly: "It's too uncomfortable to stay in the river. I just want to find a scapegoat. I don't even have anyone from my village to look for. Can a stranger be the same?"
Su Tang thought, what kind of mountain god is there, how dare you arrest people from this village?Doesn’t he want to not find people from this village?That is not dare.
Seeing that Su Tang ignored her, the water ghost continued to babble: "Sister, you don't know how cold it is in the river. Not only is it cold, but there is no food to eat, and no one offers me any incense. I am almost out of the water." The ghosts turned into starving ghosts.”
Su Tang made sure that those people were still breathing, and then lit three sticks of incense in front of the chicken that had just been served. The water ghost smelled the long-lost fragrance, and her eyes lit up. While eating, she said: "Sister, Don’t worry, they are not dead. I just think they are familiar and want to ask if they know me. I always feel that I have something important to do."
The water ghost and Su Tang are already very familiar. Every night, she sees Su Tang passing by the river and going to the mountains to absorb the ghost energy. She also often sees Su Tang dragging her drunken husband and putting him in the river. , watching him struggle in the water, and when he was still breathing, he pulled him up again, and so on, pitiful that man, he still thought he was having a nightmare every day.
