Chapter 25 Returning to the old residence
In the middle of the first month, it is a rainy day.

Rapeseed and winter wheat are turning green and growing rapidly.

It is suitable to get married and travel, and avoid digging ponds to trim the nails of hands and feet.

Su Suisui snuggled into A Niang's arms, holding her "rice bowl" and sucking heavily.

Grandma's milk is getting sweeter and sweeter, and there is still plenty. You can drink as much as you want.Unlike before, it was gone after a few mouthfuls.

Shen Biyu sat on the bedside, watching her husband dressing and combing his hair worriedly.

"Sir, have you really thought about it?"

Su Changhuai looked at himself in the mirror, his eyes seemed to be full of autumn water, ready to drip out at any time.

It seems that his eyes became like this after he had vomiting and diarrhea at Xianfeng Restaurant.Like a little daughter's eyes, she can cry at any time.

In fact, he tried it and found that he could control his tears with ease.

You know, he used to be born without tears.

Good, he knows that sometimes tears can be a weapon.

"Hmm." He nodded.

He already felt guilty for giving birth to his daughters in troubled times, and Aunt Chen's visit made him realize the difficult situation of his daughters.

He wanted his daughters to go to school and let everyone know that his daughter, Su Changhuai, was no worse than a boy and that he could not take advantage of his daughter.

Three daughters have to pay for their education in three parts, which is a huge expense.With his current income, he can't do it.

So he must use his weapons well and get back what belongs to him.

Su Changhuai left.

Shen Biyu went to the ground to pull out a winter cabbage, and saw that the mountains and fields were more green, with dots of flowers hidden among the weeds.

Chop the cabbage and make porridge with the diced bacon. Take out all the dried bracken from last year and eat it. Make new ones.He took another wild egg from the basket, stirred it up and steamed it.

It started to rain misty when I woke the children up for breakfast.

A spring rain and a warm one, and it will get warmer and warmer.

"Where's dad?" Su Jingsheng remembered that dad would only start work tomorrow.

Shen Biyu fed Su Suisui some egg custard and replied, "Your father is over there."

"Over there? Is it grandma's side?" Su Jiaojiao asked.

Shen Biyu sighed, "Yes."

In Su Zhai, the red leather left behind by the explosion of fireworks was trampled on, wet, and stuck to the ground.

The three brothers Fu, Lu and Shou ran over and banged the door, "Mom and dad, uncle is here!"

The couple lay on the bed, and Chen Cuiping used scissors to twist Su Changbai's toenails.It was this flying nail that scraped off a piece of skin on her heel last night.

"What? Ouch!" When Su Changbai heard this, he moved and the scissors pinched the meat.

"You did it yourself!" Chen Cuiping calmly wiped the blood from the scissors and went to open the door.

"Mom, uncle is here!"

Chen Cuiping quickly pulled her three sons into the house, wiped their heads and faces with a handkerchief, "Don't go outside on rainy days, I won't listen! Do you want to be like your grandma, who can't afford to get sick?"

The three brothers, Fu, Lu and Shou, shook their heads repeatedly. At first, grandma was just suffering from the cold and she could just cover up the sweat for a day. Unexpectedly, the more she covered herself, the worse it became and she no longer looked like a human being.

After covering it for several days, the whole house smelled bad, and they no longer liked going to grandma's place.

"What's he doing here?" Last time he and Cuiping brought his mother-in-law to his house for New Year greetings, which made it ugly. What's he doing here now?

Su Changbai didn't understand, so he told the three brothers Fu, Lu and Shou, "Go and follow your uncle and see what he wants to do."

"Yes, Daddy!"

Returning to my old home, every step is filled with memories.

In the past, there were many servants in the house, so it didn't feel big, but now it just feels so big and empty.

Thorns grew into the corridors of the alleys, and the stone slabs underfoot were covered with moss. The originally lifelike eaves ridge beasts were covered with green moss, and their original appearance was no longer visible.

Plants grew wildly, and towering locust trees and cypress trees were entangled with vines.There were flocks of flying birds, and white bird droppings fell densely, covering each other. White umbrellas and red umbrellas grew in the corners of the yard and between the rocks.

Only one house remained intact.

Su Changhuai pushed open the door of the room, and a mixed stench suddenly hit his face.

He covered his nose.

"Who?"

A bulging figure in the gray bed tent moved slowly, and Mrs. Su's voice was weak and hoarse, as if she had a handful of sand in her mouth.

She originally thought it was Chen Cuiping who came to collect the chamber pot, but the figure in the white light didn't look like her. Moreover, the lazy woman collected it every three days, and it was not enough.

Is it Changbai?

No, the long cypress should be rounder and shorter.

That is?

"Ugh!" The figure vomited to the side.

It's him, it's him, it's him!

Mrs. Su said "Hey" excitedly and wanted to get up, but she couldn't.

It is said that before a person dies, those who miss him will come to pick him up.

Before he died, she stayed by his bedside. He looked at the shadow in the sky, excitedly called "Mother" several times, and left with a smile, two tears flowing from the corners of his eyes.

She touched it and it was still hot.

Unexpectedly, when she left, he would be the one to pick her up.

Her favorite husband.

She stood up, wanting to wipe herself, tuck her messy hair, wash her face, and apply the lipstick he gave her 40 years ago.

She still remembered that the lipstick box was engraved with the words "Huanyanzhai", which was used by all the ladies of the Shangjin official family.

She was afraid that he would be surrounded by warblers in that world, so she wanted to take care of herself, go to another world with him neatly and beautifully, and become husband and wife again.

But she couldn't get up or move her heavy body.

Her original body was now so light that she could easily climb mountains and trees. She could also carry and carry things. She was the most capable girl in the village at that time.

It's not that her family was poor and she grew up practicing it since childhood. This is not worth mentioning. She has been pampered since she got married and lived in Suzhai.

There are people to take care of her when she eats, sleeps, bathes, dresses, and even defecates, so her body becomes lazy and tired, and she can no longer endure hardships.

She has lived a good life for so many years, and she knows that such a good life is made possible by the accumulation of money.

So after the death of her husband, she gradually dismissed all her servants.

She is stupid and cannot make money, so she will keep it and pass on the property left by her husband to her children and grandchildren.

Many people called her a miser and an iron cock. Even her second daughter-in-law said so. She didn't care. As long as she was alive, she had to guard her husband's property. Even if she died and turned into a ghost, she would also be attached to the Su family's property. When her daughter-in-law spends money, she jumps out and takes her with her.

This was originally her plan, but now that her husband is here, she is not sure anymore.

In a daze, a warm handkerchief wiped her face, gently and patiently, again and again.

Next comes the neck, hands and feet.

After twisting the handkerchief, he lifted up her clothes and wiped her back and chest, legs and buttocks.

There were only vague shadows in her eyes busy in front of the bed.

She burst into tears. Her husband had never served her so patiently. She had always served him like this.

My husband became a ghost and his personality was reversed.To be honest, she liked this ghost husband more.

"Brother Xun." She cleared her throat, just like she called him 40 years ago.

The shadow in his eyes froze, and he continued to twist the handkerchief.

"Mom, I am Changhuai."
