Chapter 28
"Really, but my mother-in-law hasn't come back yet, why don't my sister go in and rest first?" Her young voice was a little hoarse.

As a pair of cold little hands touched Kai Yuan's ankle, she kicked it without hesitation.

A brief scream sounded, and Wei Yuan turned around and saw the little girl lying on all fours. At this time, she raised her head with a grin on her face, "You are my dinner."

She showed her sharp teeth and bowed her back, showing the attacking state of a wild beast.

There was a wildness in those dark eyes, as if sensing Kai Yuan's calmness, she moved her hands a little anxiously.

With the confrontation between the two sides, the little girl finally couldn't hold back and rushed over first, Kai Yuan turned sideways to avoid her attack, stretched out her foot and kicked out.

The little girl was kicked in the stomach and hit the wall. She let out a dull wail and rushed over again. Wei Yuan reached out and grabbed her hair and threw her out.

"Ha!" She jumped up and stared fiercely at Kai Yuan.

"Squeak," the sound of opening the door awakened the little girl, she glared fiercely at Kai Yuan and quickly disappeared around the corner.

The twisted feeling also disappeared in an instant. The old woman's footsteps sounded as she went up the stairs, and then she appeared at the stairs. "I'm back. I went to buy some food. How about making a bamboo shoot soup for dinner tonight."

Kai Yuan lowered the expression in her eyes, "Okay."

"You're tired too, go into the house and rest for a while, and I'll bring it to you." The old lady came up and Kai Yuan noticed that she was carrying a bag.

"Don't mind, our town has a custom not to eat meat dishes. There are special meat dishes sold outside for foreign tourists. If you want to eat them, you can buy them yourself." She paused, "It's best not to eat them."

Kui Yuan stepped forward quickly, "I'll help you."

"No, no, you are a guest. How can I let you come?" the old woman said repeatedly.

Wei Yuan has already taken the bag, "Put it somewhere."

"That utility room in front, I'm old." She thumped her waist with a slightly cloudy look in her eyes.

Wei Yuan followed the old woman and saw her opening the door to reveal a house full of clutter, with some broken dolls scattered on the ground.

Kai Yuan put down the bag and looked at the dolls with stumps all over the floor and asked, "Who are these dolls?"

The old woman took one look and sighed, "It was the child's mother who did it. It's just that during that time, the child missed his mother and used the doll to vent his anger. In recent years, no new dolls have been sent, so she carefully protected the last one."

After closing the door, she seemed to see a little girl huddled in the corner of the utility room.

Seeing the old woman take a step and stop panting, she hurried over to support her, "I'll support you."

"The girl is kind, I am old and useless, now I hope that my unfilial daughter can come back and take this child away," she walked down the stairs holding Kai Yuan's hand.

I happened to see a little girl playing with a doll in the living room. "My wife and I can't guarantee that we will go there someday. This place is not friendly to girls, but her mother never comes back. I really hate it."

The little girl ran over and looked up at the old man, "Grandma, I don't want to leave, I want to stay with you."

The old man stretched out his hand and touched her head, "Grandma is too old to take care of you, can you go with mom when the time comes?"

"I won't, I won't!" The child threw the doll to the ground angrily, "I won't leave!" She yelled, turned around and ran up the stairs.

"Hey, you doll!" The corners of the old man's eyes were a little wet, and he wanted to bend down to pick up the doll tremblingly.

Wei Yuan had already picked up the doll and handed it to her. The old man wiped his tears and said, "Since the garden declined, the place has gradually become unusable. Only a few people come here throughout the year, but they all want to explore the garden, so... Many people have disappeared, and her mother sent things back a few years ago, but there has been no news in these years."

She sat on the sofa, "Follow our old couple and suffer here. I don't eat well, I don't wear clothes well, and the most frightening thing is that she, a girl, doesn't even dare to go out, for fear of being discovered..."

She sighed, "We don't know how long we can live and how long we can protect it."

There was movement at the door, and the dim light was turned on. The old man was a little surprised to see Kai Yuan and his wife, "What's wrong?"

As soon as the old woman saw him, she couldn't stop crying again, "I want my daughter to go find her mother."

The old man came over in a panic, "Didn't you say that you are not in a hurry for now, you have to get in touch."

"It's a joke for you," he said, feeling a little embarrassed towards Wei Yuan.

"It's okay. Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite." Wei Yuan walked to the living room table and poured a glass of water. "First drink a glass of water to moisten your throat."

"Hey," the old lady closed her mouth after taking the water.

"I'm going to cook, it will be dark later." After she finished speaking, she stood up and the old man hurriedly helped her along.

When Kai Yuan turned around, she saw the little girl staring at her viciously, and she smiled, "I don't think you want me to tell your grandparents the fact that you are not human."

The little girl's expression suddenly stiffened, and she gritted her teeth, "If you dare to tell them, I will eat you!"

Wei Yuan took a few steps over and rubbed her hair vigorously, "You little brat said such big things, I didn't even know who was beaten until they were crawling all over the floor just now."

"You!" The child stared angrily and gritted his teeth.

"If you don't make trouble, I won't tell your grandma. Let's do our own things without disturbing each other. What do you think?" Kai Yuan squatted down and looked at her.

Because of her actions, the little girl's expression gradually eased, she looked away for a while and let out a muffled hum.

Wei Yuan smiled and took out the doll that he had just placed on the sofa. "Hold it and don't lose it. I heard your grandma said that she is very important to you."

The little girl took the doll and squeezed her hands tightly, and when Kai Yuan got up to leave, she said, "Once I heard someone say that if you find the owner in that garden, your wish will come true."

She hugged the doll tightly, "I sneaked over in the middle of the night, and then..." She lowered her head, "Don't tell grandma, please."

Kai Yuan turned around, "I won't say anything, I will leave when I finish my work."

The little girl raised her head and said, "Are you also going to that garden to find her to fulfill your wish?"

Kai Yuan paused and then nodded, "Yes."

"Then I wish you success." The little girl wished sincerely.

"Thank you."

Looking at Kai Yuan's back, the girl's expression was a little gloomy. It's not that she didn't understand what she had paid, but she didn't want to be separated from her family, even if she became a monster day after day.

She touched her immature face, but her eyes showed maturity and vicissitudes that were not suitable for a child.
