The reborn cute wife is a ghost

Chapter 3 The Lonely Man (2)
Now in this empty living room, she is being placed alone on a straw mat, her face is covered with a white cloth, and she is still wearing the white wedding dress.

The sick and weak mother was lying on the side crying bitterly. It was a woman in her 40s. Her skin was not white, but her facial features were of a good-looking type. She was wearing a loose floral cotton jacket, which could be seen to be a certain age.

In fact, her mother was sold to this small town by human traffickers. Her family was not rich, and she didn't even go to school. Later, seeing that her father treated her well, she lived there with peace of mind. She lived for more than ten years, and finally survived. Had three daughters.

Looking down, it is her eldest sister and second sister.

The eldest sister, Qiao Min, comforted her mother, while the second sister, Qiao Li, stood aside with her arms folded, watching Qiao's mother take off the shoes of the dead body, wondering, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Qiao's mother didn't speak, she squatted down, shook, took off Qiao Guan's shoes with difficulty, staggered out, found a ladder, and put it on the tiles on the roof with a "bang". .

Then she stepped on the ladder without saying a word, and climbed up without moving very smoothly.

Not to mention Qiao Li, even Qiao Min was in a hurry, and the two hurried out of the back room.

"Mom, what are you doing? How dangerous, come down!" The two sisters shouted.

Mother Qiao didn't answer, she tremblingly went up to the roof, and then firmly clasped the tiles on the eaves.

When Qiao's father heard the movement, he limped out of the house. Before he could stop it, Qiao's mother held Qiao Wan's shoes and began to knock and beat.

Qiao's mother murmured: "Wanwan wears shoes, Wanwan is back!"

Seeing this scene, the people under the eaves fell silent one after another.

Qiao Guan floated behind her mother, afraid that she would fall, but couldn't touch her, so she could only worry on the sidelines.

But when she heard this, her heart felt as if she was being pulled, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

There is a saying in the countryside that when a relative is critically ill and faints, holding the shoes she is wearing, hitting the eaves and shouting, can call back the departed soul of the relative, commonly known as calling the soul.

But she has died now, even if her mother shouted her throat, she couldn't get her back.

So when Qiao's mother shouted for a while, she lost her strength. Now her eyes are swollen from crying, her voice is hoarse, and she is sick, so she can only lie on the eaves and cry bitterly: "Wanwan, you Come back."

In the morning, he happily sent people to the car, but within half a day, the white-haired people sent the black-haired people.

For a moment, the dilapidated courtyard was shrouded in gloom, and a flowery girl passed away quietly, leaving only the sadness and crying of the family.

Qiao Wan didn't know if the soul had a heart, but now she only felt the pain in the area on her chest, and the pain made her soul tremble in the air again, as if it would disappear at any moment.

The most sorry thing in her life is her parents. If she hadn't been deceived by lard, she wouldn't have done such stupid things, which not only hurt her parents' hearts, but even ruined her life's happiness.

The next day, the family began to deal with her funeral. Many people from the town came to pay respects, including of course the uncle who watched her sink to the bottom of the river that day.

Qiao Guan listened to their gossip behind their backs, felt wronged, but couldn't speak, and later on the day of the burial, even Zhang Yong came.

He brought a thick envelope on behalf of the Li family. When the envelope was opened, there was a stack of red banknotes inside. There was about thirty to forty thousand in cash. Although I don't know how much he swallowed in private, the money was enough. Send her mother to a hospital in the city for treatment.

"My condolences." Zhang Yong bowed in front of the mourning hall, subconsciously avoiding the photo of the deceased in front of him.

Qiao's father, Qiao's mother, and her two older sisters wept and thanked him, took the money, and treated him like a benefactor.

Looking at this scene, Qiao Wan felt slightly sour.

She stole the family's savings before, causing her mother to be sick and have no money for medical treatment. Although she lost her life now, fortunately, she got a dowry gift and a pension from the Li family. As long as her mother's illness can be cured, she It's worth losing this life.

Thinking of this, Qiao Wan felt a little more at ease.

Burials are popular in the small town, waiting for relatives and friends to come, so Dad Qiao carried her into a coffin and kept a vigil for the whole night. On the second day, he found someone to lift the coffin and beat the gong all the way The drummer sent it to the top of the mountain.

After sealing the coffin and burying it, Qiao Wan raised her head and looked at the sun she was staring at, she was very surprised, it turned out that the soul can also walk in the daytime, but the empty wilderness around her made her feel extraordinarily desolate.

If a person is poor, even if he dies, he will die.

When the folks in the town had almost left, there were only four members of Qiao's family left on the bare hill.

Qiao Li pushed her father's shoulder: "Abba, go back."

Father Qiao didn't stop burning paper money: "I'll stay with your sister again."

The old father frowned, and the wrinkles on his forehead were clearly visible: "If you hadn't been sent away, you wouldn't be lying on the ground in fear now, my sister, can you hear me? Go at ease and have a good pregnancy ...it's because Dad is useless..."

On the deserted hilltop, the old man's crying voice echoed around in a low voice, as if drifting into the wind.

In the next two days, Qiao Wan began to wander aimlessly in the small town. She didn't know where to go, and she didn't understand why people were dead, so why did she still have sad thoughts? Could it be that she was really like what the old witch in the next village said, Turned into a lonely ghost?
She had mixed feelings in her heart. She passed by the entrance of the town several times and tried countless times. Every time she just approached, she was bounced away by a barrier.

Qiao Wan looked at the scenery in the distance, she grew up so big, she left this small town only a handful of times, and she didn't see many things, so when she saw that Teacher Wang who came from the city, she was instantly taken aback. Bewildered.

She was floating in the sky, wanting to know where the man took her money, but she couldn't get out of this small town, so she could only wander around for a few days in a daze, until two days later, the town welcomed a... black jeep.

At this time, Qiao Guan was floating on the roof watching his mother knitting sweaters in the yard. When they were young, their family was poor and couldn’t afford thick sweaters for winter, so Mother Qiao always collected some old clothes from other people on the market, and when they came back, they unraveled the stitches again. The three sisters wove new clothes.
