My dad beckoned at me as he smiled slightly. I always thought his smile was so weird. He had gone through a heart surgery, and it was a good recovery too, but he wasn’t in good spirits!
I asked, “Dad, what about my mother?”
“She is wrapping dumplings, come on in, so I can close the door!” At this point, my father left the door wide open and said, “Bring the car in, what are you dawdling about?”
At the same time, my wife said from the yard, “Yeah, Xiao Yun, come in!”
In this situation, my dad took a folding fan out of his pocket, opened the rear fan, and said, “How hot is it outside! Come in quickly! What the hell are you doing? I don’t dare to go out in this ghostly weather.”
Actually, I didn’t feel how hot it was! It ’s windy today, and still comfortable.
Before going inside, I grabbed big back with my wrist, and said to my dad, “Dad, you close the door first. I am tired after driving for two hours, going to smoke a cigarette in the grove outside.”
My dad replied, “Yes. I’m going to make dumplings. Let’s have a drink tonight!”
I said, “Dad, don’t drink alcohol. It’s bad for your body.”
“I’m okay, look at me. I’m fine!” Then my dad turned and went back.
Master and I quickly entered the grove in front of my house. After entering, I immediately called Lao Shen. After the call was answered, it was not Lao Shen who answered the phone. The other person asked me who I was looking for, and I said, “I’m looking for Lao Shen!”
“You are looking for my father, but he is gone.”
“Where did he go?” I asked. “I called him to talk about something important!”
“My father died. He suffered a cerebral hemorrhage three days ago.”
I was instantly stunned, and thought, ‘How could Lao Shen die? If he died three days ago. How did this come to my house? Needless to say, this old board of Shen must be a treasure and should be the legendary boxwood, and he gave it away like this? Moreover, my dad made it clear that someone had arrived at this door. It seems to know that my family will definitely buy it, even the size is right.’
‘Besides, my dad would never spend millions to buy a door panel. He didn’t have that much money.’
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt my scalp numb, and my heart twitched.
I said to Master, “Master, Lao Shen is dead, and my brain is bleeding!”
Holding his chin, he glanced at the door of my house and said, “Lao Shen is dead, but this plaque has arrived at your house. Was it brought by a ghost? Ask your dad whether this plaque was bought during the day or at night?.”
I said, “Are we going in?”
“Everyone has come, what can you do without going in? Your whole family is here, and now we have no choice.”
I looked at the Master and said, “If something really happened, wouldn’t it be a drag on you? Master, if you feel danger, just …”
“Dude, I think that’s my life too!” Big back pulled me and said, “Let’s go, there are some things you can’t avoid if you want to hide. Since you found me on the Internet, fate has doomed me and you to stir together. “
We got into the car and drove it straight onto the yard. Then I came back to close the door. The moment the door closed, the sky suddenly became gray and the temperature abruptly dropped, causing a chill to run through me.
Big back ran over and yanked the door open. The outside of the door turned dark for a moment, only to see a slab of a road leading to darkness. At this time, my mother came out of the house and shouted, “The dumplings are out of the pot, you should enter the house for dinner.”
Next, the light in the room turned on, and I saw my wife coming out of the room. She looked up at the sky. I knew that she was wondering why it was black. I was about to step out of the door when big back grabbed my arm and said, “What are you doing? I warned you, don’t be reckless, listen to me.”
He closed the door, plugged it in, and pulled me to my house. My wife looked at me this time and said, “Xiao Yun, the dumplings are almost ready. Come now, I’m hungry.”
I found that my wife seemed to be different. She had lost the ability to judge the surroundings. Didn’t she find the surroundings unusual? Master and I entered the room, took off my shoes, and put on my slippers. There was already a bottle of Erguotou and four dishes on the table. My mother said, “Hurry up, you guys drink first, the dumplings will be ready soon.”
At this time, Jia Jia, while leaning, looked at me quietly. She had turned into a 14-year-old girl. But even so, neither my parents or my wife felt anything. My wife complained, “Jia Jia, don’t lean on there, come over and eat!”
Jiajia said, “Mom, my feet hurt!”
My heart was almost coming out, haven’t they realized that Jiajia had grown up? The most frightening thing was that she was wearing a big red skirt at this time, which looked so weird!
Master stared at Jiajia’s feet at this moment and said, “Brother Xing, your daughter doesn’t have foot pain, she has no feet at all!”
My clothes were soaked with sweat. In addition, this summer’s house was like a cold storage, so I began to sneeze. The teeth bumped together and rattled.
Master didn’t seem to be afraid of the cold here. He calmly said to me, “The problem lies on this foot. Does she often say that her feet hurt?”
“I’ve said it many times!” I looked at him and said, “Master, aren’t you cold?”
The master looked at me, then my dad, and then Jiajia. He finally went out to see my mother cooking dumplings. When he came back, he had a thermometer in his hand. He finally shoved the thermometer into his pocket and pulled me out. When we arrived in the yard, he said, “They all have turned a blind eye to Jiajia growing up. Only you saw the difference, didn’t you? This thing is simply incredible, something I have never encountered before.”
“Don’t you see it? Is it my hallucination?” I asked.
“I naturally saw it,” he said.
I said, “Yeah, what happened to my family? Master, are they all confused?”
The master shook his head and said, “No! There is something wrong with your yard.”
“Then we should leave this place!,” I said. “I don’t want to stay in this ghostly place.”
Master exhaled, then pointed at the door and said, “You can’t do without it. Going out from here is a dead end. Although this yard is weird, it is not a fierce house. I think that if there is no door, this yard…maybe you see It’s not the parents standing alive in front of you, but two bodies. And they have been dead for three days. “
I can’t accept this, I can’t believe it, so I pretended to laugh lightly, “Master, you are joking with me, my parents are living well, how could they die? Take a closer look, My mom is still making dumplings! “
My mother shouted at this time: “Come in for dinner, your dad has already eaten it by himself.”
I frowned and said, “Have you ever seen anyone eat dumplings? Master, have you made a mistake?”
“Does your family have a sphygmomanometer? You will know the heart rate and blood pressure when you measure your dad.” He said, “I have never encountered such a thing, but I am sure that your parents are two corpses.”
My wife came out at this time and looked at me and said, “Xiao Yun, what are you doing? Why don’t you come in for dinner? Dad is in a hurry.”
When I pulled my big back, I entered the room. At this time, Jiajia sat cross-legged on the cymbal and sat next to my dad. After I and Master got together, everyone ate dumplings together. I felt cold, so I found a jacket from the cabinet and put it on. No one felt anything, the atmosphere was particularly weird.
My dad drank a lot of wine. Master’s head didn’t seem to have any worries. This guy died when he saw the wine. Toasted to my dad with a glass, I really worry that he will drink too much. But he didn’t seem to be drunk except for his talk.
After three rounds of drinking, Jia Jia and my wife finished eating first, and my mother finished eating later, leaving us three men at the wine table. Master suddenly cried while holding a wine glass. He burst into tears and said, “Uncle, I don’t know, I’m a murderer. I killed my wife. Without killing my wife, I would never have known Brother Xing.”
As soon as this word came out, I spit out the wine. I looked at him and said, “Master, don’t bullshit, this joke is not funny!”
