Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 298

During the afternoon nap, when everyone else was falling asleep, Yuan Shi slept very restlessly. The scenes and people that appeared in the dream were old people from many years ago. , the gauze dress she loved most when she was young was still on her body, walking in the courtyard of the Yuan family that had not yet decayed, Yuan Shi was a little flustered, and her fingertips trembled uncontrollably. To those who made her familiar, she didn't want to go back to that hellish day.

Curling herself in a corner, Yuanshi covered her ears and tried her best to block out the sound coming from a distance. She couldn't hear or see, Yuanshi said silently in her heart, she was afraid that what she was facing was a situation that would make her collapse. In the dream, she wanted to experience the scene of losing her loved ones again, and escaped from the reality she was afraid of. Yuan Shi found that even after 18 years, she was still terribly cowardly.

The voice in her ears had disappeared, and the surrounding scenery gradually became foggy. Yuan stood up in a daze, looked back, and found that those who had already died appeared not far from her, with loving and gentle eyes. looking at her.

Seeing the appearance of her parents inside, Yuan Shi was so excited that she just wanted to speak, but the scene in front of her eyes changed in vain, and she returned to reality.

Looking at the familiar bed boards and surrounding furnishings, Yuan Shi moved her sore neck and smiled wryly, "Could it be, is this really fate?" Yuan Shi woke up from the dream, hugged the quilt and sat up.

The light in the afternoon was a bit dense, and Yuan Shi turned her head to look at the closed door. Through the drawn curtain in front of her, she could clearly see the clusters of light.

In the hazy light, tiny dust particles could still be seen. Yuan's expression froze for a moment, and then he gave a wry smile and closed his eyes. It was her magic barrier. This is not her home, and the characters in the dream have long since disappeared. Besides, her home was destroyed 18 years ago.

Unable to sleep and restless, Yuan Shi thought she was going out for a walk. In the morning, out of consideration for her daughter's feelings, Yuan Shi did not take her back to the Yuan family's ancestral house, but just walked around the county town of Pingchuan twice. .

"Now that the ancestral house is unattended, it must have been deserted for a long time," said Yuan Shi, realizing that tears had already flowed out unconsciously, she stretched out her hand to wipe around the corners of her eyes, Yuan Shi went down to put on her shoes, and changed into a plain white dress again. Clothes, took off all the hairpins on the head, simply tied the hair into a bun, and went out like this.

At this time, everyone else was still taking a nap, Yuan Shi was careful not to disturb others, went out of the small gate of the county government office, made a detour, and Yuan Shi went straight to the south of the city.

The topography of Pingchuan has long been memorized by Yuan. Although some minor incidents have happened in Pingchuan over the years, Yuan's ancestral house has not been moved. Thinking of this, Yuan laughed at himself, probably Who would dare to live in a "haunted house" that felt unlucky, where the entire mansion had died.

Hehe, she thought, this is why the Ning family has not occupied their Yuan Mansion for so many years.

Yuan Shi walked in a hurry, and after leaving an appointment for a stick of incense, she just arrived at the destination she was going to come to.

The sight is a barren land, full of incomplete walls and weeds as tall as half a person, the wooden gate is open, the breeze blows, and the "creak" is called back and forth, and the writing on the top of the gate Half of the plaque with the word "Yuan Fu" has been broken long ago, and the word "Fu" has long since disappeared, leaving only a blurred and not very clear "Yuan" character still firm, and tears have flowed to the brim at some point. Yuan Shi did not reach out to wipe the entire cheek, but let it flow on its own.

Taking steps, Yuan Shi walked into this dilapidated mansion, 18 years after she left Pingchuan.

Compared with the current desolation and misery, the scenes of laughter in Yuan's mind are extremely cruel. Yuan knows that the person in the memory has long since disappeared, and the only thing left is her, the forgotten person. Bar.

"Father, mother, my daughter is back." Yuan Shi knelt at the entrance of the lobby and did not go in. "Mother said that she did not want her daughter to return to this place in her lifetime, but my daughter broke her promise. I hope mother will know from the public, so don't blame her." Yuan Shi After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and kowtowed with a "Peng", and then continued, "Father, my daughter knows that you and mother have the same thoughts, and the purpose of not letting her come back is to let her stay away from right and wrong and live this life safely. But...but..." Yuan Shi said here, tears were rushing down like a river breaking its embankment, "Daughter can't do it, daughter can't do it, you can't do it There are so many people in our Yuan family who have suffered grievances. When I come back today, my daughter wants to do something happy for you two elders." Yuan Shi said here, wiped her tears again, pulled out an ugly smile, and said softly, "Father, mother, do you know? Brother Ming'er is going to be a promising future. Our Yuan family's great sorrow has finally been reported. It has been 18 years. My daughter has been looking forward to this day for a full 18 years. Father, mother, I think you will hear it later." You must be very happy, right, don’t be impatient, wait for a few days, and when Brother Ming controls Pingchuan, we can go to the Ning family to pay for our lives.” At the end, Yuan’s expression was grim, as if he was from The female ghost who is dying in hell, her eyes are full of viciousness, she is completely different from her previous appearance.

One thought becomes a Buddha, one thought becomes a demon, nothing more than this.

With depression in her heart for 18 years, Yuan Shi has long been insane. If she hadn't considered that the children are still young, Yuan Shi herself would have rushed to the Ning Mansion to fight for her life.

She didn't stay in Yuan's Mansion for a long time. After venting the depression accumulated in her heart for many years, she made an appointment to come next time. Yuan Shi left in a hurry, and she wanted to go back before everyone woke up.

When turning out of the alley, an oncoming person suddenly broke Yuan's plan, and she was so startled that she hid back in the alley.

He...how could he appear here? Yuan Shi covered the corners of her mouth with both hands to prevent herself from making a sound. Her eyes were filled with deep-seated hatred, which she couldn't hide.

The Ning family, Ning Zhiyuan, good, good, very good!
With her head exposed, Yuan's gaze was ferociously looking at Ning Zhiyuan, who was only a few meters away from her. If gaze could kill, this "old man" who made Yuan's hate grit his teeth would have been executed by Ling Chi long ago. .

"Huh?" Ning Zhiyuan turned his head and looked at the empty alley behind him. He was a little puzzled, why did he feel like he was being stared at by a wave of hatred?
"Master, what's the matter?" Seeing his master's appearance, the servant at the side hurriedly asked.

"It's nothing." Ning Zhiyuan shook his head and said, maybe it was because of his inner thoughts. He shook his head and threw out the weird thoughts in his mind.

"Okay, let's go back"
