Chapter 408 I Did A Good Deed
Seeing me coming from a distance, Aunt Yang's son quickly ran towards me. Perhaps he was too excited. He opened his mouth but didn't know how to speak for a while.
I didn’t know what he was going to say. I felt that people standing outside were too distracted, so I suggested, “How about we go to the canteen to talk!”
Aunt Yang's son nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, okay..."
Entering the canteen, Ermiao also urged him: "Can you say it now?"
Before saying anything, Aunt Yang's son raised his hands and handed the oil-paper umbrella to me respectfully, saying thank you repeatedly.
However, what was even stranger was that he also took out a stack of money from his pocket and forced it on me...
Ermiao and I were both confused???
It's understandable to return the umbrella to me, but why should you give me money?!
And looking at the thickness of the money, it’s quite a lot, probably two to three thousand!
After questioning by Ermiao and I, the middle-aged man told the truth...
It turned out that the reason he thanked me was because of a dream he had last night!
Let’s start from the beginning...
Yes, Aunt Yang did pass away.
When I saw Aunt Yang under the big locust tree, she had already passed away.
In other words, I really used Old Man Qian's props to attract a ghost, but it was not Jasmine, but the spirit body of Aunt Yang.
Aunt Yang left while she was in the hospital. It was so sudden that Aunt Yang didn't even have time to explain her funeral. She still had many things to say to her son, but it was a pity that she left in such a hurry.
After her death, Aunt Yang still couldn't let go of her son, grandson, and their family.
Due to an obsession in her heart, Aunt Yang's soul did not stay in the hospital, but wandered back to the old community for some reason.
But……
After all, Aunt Yang is just an ordinary ghost and cannot enter places where there are many living people. She can only stay under the shade of the big locust tree temporarily, because the locust tree itself has a relatively strong yin energy.
If I hadn't been seen that afternoon, perhaps Aunt Yang's funeral arrangements would have been completed and her spirit would have dissipated.
But just when Aunt Yang's soul was dying, it was a coincidence that I cast a ghost-calling spell, which at the same time strengthened the consciousness of her spirit body and awakened her instantly.
At that time, Aunt Yang didn't actually know that she was dead, and she didn't know that she was already a ghost. His consciousness, or the remaining memory, still stayed at the most normal time during his lifetime.
Think back...
This is a bit like when I went to the old opera actor's house to try to sleep, and saw the old opera actor's ghost returning home on the first seven nights.
At that time, the old actor probably didn't know that he was dead. He didn't believe in his heart that he had become a ghost, so his way of dealing with things was more of a human consciousness, that is, he had more "human attributes"
, so he even treated me to drinks and peanuts.
But gradually, as the day dawned, the old actor may have gradually realized that he was already a wisp of smoke.
So, he left before dawn.
This is a bit far-fetched...
Let’s continue talking about Aunt Yang...
At that time, Aunt Yang saw me sneaking around under the shade of the tree, and she became very interested in the oil-paper umbrella in my hand. Perhaps her "ghost attribute" told her that the old oil-paper umbrella in my hand was
An umbrella can help her.
Because umbrellas are magic weapons, Aunt Yang borrowed my oil-paper umbrella.
Even if it is broad daylight and she is a ghost, she can still hold that umbrella and return to her longed-for home.
Looking back at the beginning, I was always following Aunt Yang. In the sun, because she was holding an oil-paper umbrella, she walked very slowly. But as soon as she entered the dim corridor, there was no direct sunlight, so she just blinked.
Time is gone.
In fact, Aunt Yang's ghost returned to her house instantly.
So, Aunt Yang went through all the trouble to get back to her own home, is she just reluctant to go home for a visit?
I think the truth is not that simple!
Sure enough, Aunt Yang's son continued to tell us that after handling Aunt Yang's funeral affairs at the hospital, he and his six-year-old son returned to their home. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a figure on the floor of the house.
A paper umbrella?
This thing is very rare. Almost no one in the entire community uses this kind of umbrella?
At first, he thought there was a thief in the house?
However, there is nothing missing in the house, but there is an old umbrella. How can a thief come in and leave something behind without stealing it?
Aunt Yang's son took a closer look at the umbrella and realized that the umbrella was placed in a strange position on the ground, as if it was pointed at a cabinet in the hut on purpose.
Aunt Yang's house is a two-bedroom house, and Aunt Yang lives in the small house. After her son divorced his wife, he moved here with his son. The father and son live in the big house.
Following the direction of the umbrella, Aunt Yang's son walked to the cabinet...
The cabinet was filled with some old clothes that Aunt Yang often wore during her lifetime. After rummaging through it, there was nothing. But he was very serious and finally took out a small iron box from the bottom of the cabinet, which is the kind of hexagonal iron biscuit.
Boxes were popular for a while in the 1980s.
After opening it, there were some photos of Aunt Yang's son when he was a child. The son held back his tears and read them one by one. Those yellowed photos were full of his childhood memories.
He also didn't expect that there was a bankbook at the bottom of those old photos.
That's right, it's a bank passbook. Young people may not have used this thing a long time ago!
The passbook is the retirement savings that Aunt Yang usually saves. Elderly people are not used to using cards, let alone Alipay, so they still like to save money in the passbook.
After taking a look, the trivial deposit certificates were added together, and there was actually a deposit of 100,000 yuan!
Aunt Yang's son was also surprised to see his mother depositing so much money for him in the bank, and of course he was even more moved!!!
That night, Aunt Yang came over to entrust her son with a dream...
She told her son that the money was saved by her frugality for her grandson's college tuition, but she left in a hurry and forgot to tell her son such an important thing.
If this biscuit box is never discovered by the son, and if the house is sold in the future, or the bankbook is accidentally soaked while cleaning, then Aunt Yang's frugal life will be in vain.
so……
Even after she died, Aunt Yang was still worried. She had such a strong obsession in her heart that she turned into a ghost and returned to the old community. She could only stay under the shade of the big locust tree temporarily. Just when she was about to die
When I couldn't hold it in anymore, I luckily met a kind-hearted person...
