C4

When my father arrived, I was already waiting downstairs. He was dressed in a black suit, a white shirt, and his eyes were a little swollen. There seemed to be more wrinkles on his face, and he seemed a lot older.

On the way back, I couldn't help but ask my father about what he hadn't finished on the phone, but when I saw his face, I couldn't bring myself to do it. After all, this has caused a lot of trouble for everyone, and I'm also afraid of hearing about something bad, and even more afraid of my dad having anything to do with it.

The roads in the city were flat, so they walked very fast. In less than two hours, my dad's car got off the highway, and the way up the mountain was full of twists and turns. It was either a rock or a ditch, and for safety's sake, my dad had to drive slowly.

I lay in the car, squinting. I'd had a nightmare all night, and I'd woken up early, and so many things had happened, and soon I was overcome by a wave of fatigue.

In a trance, the shadow floated. Suona, the voice of advocacy could not stop. It was clearly a cheerful melody, but it sounded somewhat creepy.

A flash of red light appeared and I was led forward in a red phoenix coronet. My red hair fluttered in the wind as I lowered my head. To my horror, I found that there were a lot of paper men around me.

I shivered.

I was so scared that I had no choice but to pinch my hand, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't feel any pain. I knew that I had fallen into a deep dream, and I wanted to wake up and stop, but my body couldn't help but move forward.

"The bride is here!"

Along with the sharp shout of the maidservant, the weird sound of the blow became even more intense, the ear-piercing music almost pierced through my eardrums, I wanted to raise my hand to cover my ears, but before I could do so, I was grabbed by a pair of large, ice-cold hands, with ten fingers interlocked, and that ice-cold feeling reached deep into my heart. Surprisingly, I didn't feel uncomfortable, the suona sound was no longer ear-piercing.

After that, I was led across a high threshold, listening to the master of ceremonies and paying respects to the people around me.

In the blink of an eye, the scene in front of me changed.

The full moon was high and I was standing in a pavilion with a curtain of red gauze, and when the hood was lifted by a weighing pole, I saw the face of the man who had pulled me to my knees.

I looked at everything in front of me in shock. Under the moonlight, his facial features were like a painting. He looked like an immortal walking out of a painting. I've never seen such a handsome man. Just a glance at his eyes, which were like black obsidian, is enough to make people fall in love with him.

The book said that there had to be demons in this abnormality, and I knew that the man in front of me was definitely not an immortal or a demon. There was only one possibility for him, and that was, he was the Great Evildoer.

"Who, who are you?"

He did not reply to me, but simply smiled and said: "I knew you would come back. From today onwards, you are my, Su Min's, wife." His tone was seductive and pleasant to hear, my heart quivered a little, and the word Su Min rippled in my mind.

"Su Min, Su Min." I repeated his name, as though he had been recited a million times.

I had never heard of this name before, but why did it feel so familiar from the bottom of my heart?

"Xiaochu, wake up, wake up." My father's voice rang in my ears, and I opened my eyes. He saw my father opening the door and telling me to get out.

I rubbed my eyes, ran my fingers through my tousled hair, and got out of the car. As I looked around, I saw a few run-down houses not far away with white drapes hanging from them. Large delicate wreaths of flowers were placed on either side of the road, and the neat coffins were placed on one side. It suddenly occurred to me that this was the village entrance to the village of Baishou, the place where I had lived for two whole years.

Just as he got off the car, just after taking a few steps, a burly young man walked towards him. He called out to my father, "Uncle Ye, you're back."

My dad nodded and turned. "Xiaochu, this is your second brother."

I was stunned. I didn't know where Erhu popped out from, but the young man felt a little embarrassed. He scratched his head and stammered, "I-I am Erhu who lives next door to you! Do you forget, I even brought you to catch crickets? "

Big cricket?

With his reminder, I remembered that he was taking me to the eastern cemetery to catch crickets, thus creating the legendary Erhu in my current condition. I smiled in embarrassment.

When he returned home, his uncles and aunts were already waiting at the door. Because he hadn't returned for so many years, his impression of the people in the village was already hazy, and he couldn't recognize any of them. Two years ago, my grandfather passed away from illness, leaving only my grandmother at home. Now, looking at the stooped figure in the middle of the crowd, I guessed that it must be my grandmother.

He told me that the white-haired man was my uncle, and the short one was my uncle, and the ones standing next to him were my aunt and their children. When he got close, he knelt down in front of my grandmother, and they all went up to help him.

My father did not care about the crowd and kept saying, "My son is unfilial, my son is unfilial!"

I stood behind my father, embarrassed beyond belief, looking at the unfamiliar face in front of me. Kneeling didn't mean not kneeling, either, and I was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say to prove my existence.

And it was an aunt who first saw me, walked over and said, "Isn't this Xiaochu? It's been so long, it's really a sign! "

I smiled and said, "Hello, Aunt."

I turned my head and looked behind me. I had a bad feeling, and for some reason, from the moment I entered the village to the moment I arrived at my house, I had the feeling that an eye was staring at me from behind my back.
