Ge Jun's family belongs to Mengou Village, which is far away from the urban area and belongs to the outer suburbs.

So the houses here are relatively less crowded, and many people have private yards.

Ge Jun's yard is also a single family, with three or four acres of land, which is not a small yard.

Mrs. Ge only had one son, and her two daughters were married. After her son got married, she gave the courtyard to him to live in. She and her husband shamelessly took two rooms in the courtyard to live in.

She lived separately from her son and daughter-in-law, not to let the young couple live a good life, but because Liu Cuixia was pregnant and about to give birth, and she didn't want to take care of her confinement child.

Later, after giving birth to a daughter, she stopped caring even more.

As a result, the girl was not kept and died before she was one year old. Liu Cuixia gave birth to a second child, a daughter, but she still died before she was one year old.

Mrs. Ge has a strong opinion against Liu Cuixia. She doesn't care if she can't give birth to a son, but she can't even raise a daughter. Doesn't she clearly want to cut off the Ge family's incense?

So we don't have much contact with each other at ordinary times. Even if Liu Cuixia brings food and drinks during the New Year and holidays, she won't even give him a sip of hot water.

Mrs. Ge took the key and opened the door of her son's house with a sad face. She pushed the door open and saw Liu Cuixia standing in the sun with a child in her arms. She quickly turned around and closed the door, and then plugged it in from the inside.

He walked quickly to Liu Cuixia and said in a low voice: "You are going to die. Do you want others to know that you have adopted a child?"

As he spoke, he pushed Liu Cuixia into the house.

In the past, Liu Cuixia would definitely not listen to Mrs. Ge, but now she wants Mrs. Ge to keep her company, so she can only enter the house obediently.

Entering the house, Mrs. Ge looked at the child in Liu Cuixia's arms. She had bright eyebrows and a pink face. She was a beautiful baby with pink and jade carvings. Moreover, she was well-raised at first glance. The little face and small hands were white and tender.

There are no cracks in the spring.

Unlike the children in the village, their little faces and hands are chapped in winter and spring, and they are tanned by the sun.

Nothing like this child, white and tender, as if he was raised in a pampered way.

Mrs. Ge couldn't help frowning and asked suspiciously: "Did you really pick this child up? Where did you pick it up? How did you pick it up?"

Liu Cuixia felt guilty, so she put Mo Mo on the bed and stuffed him with a piece of chicken cake: "I picked it up on the road after the night shift. If it hadn't been thrown away, who would have such a big child on the roadside alone before dawn?"

?”

Mrs. Ge was dubious, but she had never seen such a beautiful child before: "It's really pretty. Who would give up such a pretty doll?"

Liu Cuixia lied: "Maybe there is something wrong with the child. It has been two days since we picked up this child. He doesn't cry or fuss, and he can't talk. He looks like he is two years old, and he still can't talk."

Mrs. Ge was a little surprised: "It's a mute? Then no wonder he doesn't want it."

She had seen many children thrown away with defects and then given birth to healthy children, so it would not be surprising if a mute child was thrown away.

Mrs. Ge sat by the bed and looked at the child carefully for a while. She saw Mo Mo lowering his head and eating the chicken cake one bite at a time. He was also very careful not to let the cake crumbs fall on the bed. At first glance, he was well-educated.

I was confused, this meant that this child had been raised very carefully before.

How could you throw away a child you raised with such care?

Seeing her mother-in-law's suspicious look, Liu Cuixia came up with a new excuse: "I guess the mother may be pregnant again. After all, the family planning policy is very tight now."

With this explanation, Mrs. Ge felt that there was nothing wrong with her.

He squinted at the child and felt that he still couldn't raise it: "Since there is a problem with the child, you can raise it for two days and send it to the public security bureau. The grandson of our Ge family cannot be a disabled person."

Then he added: "It's not that we, Ge Jun, can't have children. We've let you get pregnant with two before, which means there's nothing wrong with us, Ge Jun."

Liu Cuixia stared at her eyes: "Mom, what do you mean by this? Can you rely on me if the child is gone? I didn't even have a good confinement period after giving birth to two children. When I met the double gun, I went to the fields to work like a man.

live."

It was only later that I was assigned to work as a worker in a factory, and I felt relieved.

Mrs. Ge was not sympathetic at all: "Who didn't come here like this? I had only given birth for three days, and I had to go to the fields to cook for a family of more than ten people. If I didn't get up, my mother-in-law would keep banging pots in the yard.

I've also come here and raised three children, so why am I not as squeamish as you?"

He also snorted: "If you don't have the life of a princess, you still have princess disease."

Liu Cuixia was used to being ridiculed by Mrs. Ge over the years, so she could only ignore it and began to tell her about the strange things that happened this morning. When she talked about seeing ghosts twice, she forgot to mention that Mo Mo pointed it out to her.

Mainly she didn't think it was important, it was a ghost anyway.

After hearing this, Mrs. Ge was so surprised that she could not speak for a while. As an older person, she believed that there were ghosts in this world. After all, she had heard many stories before.

I had never heard of this courtyard being haunted before: "Are you telling the truth? It's not just a dazzle, right? I've never heard of this before."

Liu Cuixia nodded: "It's absolutely true, can I still lie to you?"

After saying that, he remembered to pull Mo Mo: "This child discovered it first. He pointed it at me to see. Doesn't it mean that the child's eyes are clean and he can see dirty things?"

Mrs. Ge believed it, looked at Mo Mo, and thought for a while but couldn't figure it out: "It's broad daylight, the sun is so bright, how can it be haunted? Why don't you ask the goddess to come and have a look?"

In every village there is always a capable person who can exorcise evil spirits, catch ghosts, and treat some weird diseases.

Liu Cuixia was a little worried: "What about this child? If Aunt Six knows about it, will she talk nonsense?"

Mrs. Ge was not sure and felt disgusted again: "Why do you bring such a child back when you have nothing to do? You really have nothing to do to make trouble. This child can't be raised at home anyway."

Liu Cuixia remained silent. She was determined to raise this child.

Without children, what will she do when she gets old? And without children, her marriage to Ge Jun may be over. Maybe one day, her mother-in-law will be able to let Ge Jun have children with another woman.

Mrs. Ge didn't bother to talk to Liu Cuixia. Anyway, she didn't want to raise this child. It was up to Liu Cuixia to raise her.

The two of them were in a stalemate, neither of them willing to speak.

Mo Mo quietly finished eating the cake, and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. He looked up at the window. The curtains were closed, and there was a faint light coming through the cracks in the curtains.

He just stared at the curtains with bright eyes.

The curtain is threaded on a wire and hung in front of the window.

In silence, Liu Cuixia and Mrs. Ge found that the curtain slowly slid to one side...
