The Past
"Are you still mad at me?" His tone was very calm, as if he was afraid of disturbing something. 2
"Alright, these two are starting their love drama again. "He Sheng teased me again.
Her mother-in-law stood up and shook her head." I'm not angry anymore." "It's my fault for not telling you."
I vaguely remembered the reason why they had been having trouble lately. It seemed that her mother-in-law had not told him about the past. In addition, she had mentioned that her mother-in-law had a daughter, so he had always been brooding.
However, judging from today's situation, it seemed that the two of them were going to make it clear.
"If that's the case, then Grandma, just tell me." He Sheng really wanted to watch the show." We also want to know about your wonderful past."
"My past is not exciting at all." The mother-in-law smiled bitterly." I'm just someone else who has experienced a little too much."
When she said this, she was obviously depressed. It seemed that the things she had experienced did not make her happy.
I noticed that He Dao Ba was also carefully observing the changes in her expression. He was probably a little surprised and moved.
However, like us, he did not say anything.
It was rare for her mother-in-law to acquiesce in telling this story, so she had to listen to it quietly.
"When you guys were discussing the murals on the wall that day, I was actually very sad." Her mother-in-law finally said," Because this is almost a reflection of me."
I subconsciously glanced at the painting on the wall and recalled what Old Chen said that day. I suddenly understood something.
"What did you say?" He Dao Ba looked at her in shock." You mean your daughter..." "It's our child?"
Grandma nodded.
"Heavens, it's so exciting." He Sheng took a deep breath.
The mother-in-law ignored him and continued talking about the past.
"Not long after Zi Yi left, I found out that I was pregnant with his child." When she recounted the story, her mother-in-law no longer had the same tone as before. Instead, she tried her best to calm down.
"It's really the same as the painting." He Sheng sighed again.
"Actually, I was very troubled back then. We weren't married. Even if I did n' t care, the child would definitely be discriminated against." The mother-in-law said," But I couldn't contact him back then. Actually, I really wanted to discuss and solve the problem with him."
I didn't expect my mother-in-law to have a gentle side when she was young. I suddenly felt a little emotional.
"So, I can only make my own decision to give birth to this child." Her mother-in-law spoke casually, but I knew she must have been in great pain.
There were no loved ones or relatives nearby. It was unknown if the mother-in-law was too pitiful when the child was born, and she was crying.
"It's a girl." Her mother-in-law was completely immersed in her memories." She's very cute and pretty."
Because the child was crying so badly, the mother-in-law had been trying her best to coax the child since the girl was born, wanting her to feel more love.
When the child was slightly older, she started to take her wherever she went.
The child gradually became optimistic and didn't like to cry. The mother-in-law began to brag about it.
She had never thought that He Scarface would never return.
It was too difficult to raise a child alone.
No wonder her mother-in-law had such an attitude towards He Scarface.
"Why didn't you come looking for me?" He Dao Ba's voice sounded regretful as well. He definitely did n' t expect that what he said when he was watching the painting had an impact on his mother-in-law.
"How do I know if you want to stay with me?" The mother-in-law said," What if you think this child isn't yours?"
In that era, the discussion about women could still stir up half of the sky. I guess her mother-in-law was not less exposed to that kind of verbal violence.
"Sorry." He Dao Ba held his mother-in-law's hand and solemnly apologized," I did n' t know that you had suffered so much for me. I shouldn't have left and left you and the child to suffer."
"Grandma, although he was wrong when Uncle He left, why didn't you tell him about it when you saw him?" He Sheng asked.
"Didn't I tell you that my experience is similar to the woman on the mural?" The mother-in-law sighed." Because our daughter got lost."
"Lost?" I was shocked again.
"Yes, I lost it." The mother-in-law said," When I took her to the temple fair, she accidentally went missing. Therefore, I did not dare to mention this matter. I was afraid Zi Yi would blame me because I did not think highly of our children ……"
I suddenly remembered that when we met the little ghost who was framed by my mother, He Scarface once said indignantly that such an irresponsible person was not worthy of being a mother.
I remember her mother-in-law's expression was n' t right at that time. Now, she finally had an explanation.
From the looks of it, her mother-in-law blamed herself for losing her child. This was proof of her deep love for Dao Ba.
"So, when Village Chief told you about your daughter's whereabouts, you followed her without any doubt. In the end, you found that he did n' t know at all. He just wanted to lure you away." He Sheng thought back to what had happened and analyzed it in a very organized manner.
"That's it." Grandma nodded.
"Why did Village Chief know about this?" He Sheng continued asking.
"I told him when I first arrived in the village." Her mother-in-law said," Actually, I've been running around all these years. Apart from having to work like this, I also want to use this opportunity to find my daughter. When I first arrived at Zhuxian Village, I saw Village Chief person was kind and warm, so I told him. Who would have thought that he would use this matter to deceive me in the end? "
So it was like that. No wonder Village Chief knew what happened decades ago.
"Did Old Shi ghost mean the past?" He Scar asked.
"That's it." Her mother-in-law said," At that time, I was just trying to try some new exorcism methods. When the exorcists gathered together and chatted, they started talking about this matter."
She rubbed her nose as if she was a little uneasy.
"I had a good relationship with Old Shi Ghost back then, so I told him about losing my daughter." Her mother-in-law sighed," If I had known that he would have become like that, I wouldn't have mentioned it to him even if I had died."
This Old Shi ghost was really despicable. There was nothing wrong with the two of them, so he had to tell He Scarface about it on purpose.
"You don't have to blame yourself for everything." He Dao Ba finally spoke up to comfort her." Xiao Yu, we should understand what people are saying and doing. No one can predict the future, let alone change the past. "The only thing we can do is seize the moment."
