Su Lixuan: "No."

Jiang Cui complained: "What's wrong? You're just being treacherous. Just because I treated you badly in the past, you hold a grudge and refuse to forgive me..."

Perhaps the scene of the window grilles falling in front of her was too sad and beautiful, and the sorrow and resentment that had been accumulating in Jiang Cui's heart suddenly came to the fore.

She wiped her tears and began to complain: "When I gave birth to you, other people gave birth very quickly, but you just refused to come out. I was in so much pain..."

"Shh." Su Lixuan put her index finger in front of her lips, signaling Jiang Cui to stop howling.

Jiang Cui: "What are you saying? Are you not letting me speak now?"

Seeing that she couldn't understand what she meant no matter what, Su Lixuan had no choice but to pick up a window paper-cut that floated to her side, picked it up with two fingers and held it up to the sunlight.

The light shines through the window grilles that are held high up, casting shadows on the table.

Su Lixuan said, "Look."

Jiang Cui was still confused: "We look? What are we looking at?"

As she spoke, she casually glanced at the table...

This glance.

But she was scared!

"Oh my god! What is this?"

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but the more she looked at the shadow on the table, the more it looked like a bunch of ghost heads.

It's so ferocious and scary.

This may be especially because there is enough sunshine outside and the window paper is thin, so the shadow still has the red of the window paper.

If you glance over it carelessly... it looks blurry and bloody, making people shudder.

Covering her heart that was pounding with fear, Jiang Cui didn't bother to think about what had just happened.

Thinking about who brought in this scary thing, she turned around and glared at Li Yanhong.

"Li Yanhong, what do you want to do? What do you intend to do with this unlucky thing?!"

Of course, Li Yanhong also saw the shadow on the table. She was shocked and quickly explained, "No, I didn't take it. Erbao across the street gave it to me."

"Just now, Erbao ran into the kitchen and drooled over the candy. He said he wanted to trade the window decorations for some candy."

She is already a grandmother, so how could she refuse such a small matter?

It wouldn't sound good if it got out, as if she, at her age, couldn't even bear to give up a few pieces of candy. Besides, the child didn't ask for candy as easily as he used to.

This time he was quite well behaved and said he wanted to exchange something.

Li Yanhong was angry and regretful: "I didn't want the window paper-cut at first, but Erbao said that candy can't be taken for free, and if I didn't want it, she would feel embarrassed to eat my candy."

"Fortunately, I even praised her a few times, saying that she is sensible now."

"Who knew this little bastard was waiting for me here!"

She rolled up her sleeves and was about to go across the street to beat the child.

Su Lixuan stopped her and said, "Mom, don't rush over to settle the score with Erbao."

She loosened her hand, the window grilles slowly fell, and the hideous and terrifying shadow disappeared.

Lixuan raised her lips and asked curiously, "Mom, do you think Erbao knows that there is something strange about this window paper-cut?"

Li Yanhong recalled for a moment and hesitated, "I guess... I don't know."

If such a young child knew that the thing he was giving away was so vicious, how could he not show it on his face when giving it to him?

Even adults, when they have malicious intentions to do something bad, will inevitably look a little unnatural.

Could it be that little Lu Erbao is more scheming than an adult?

Su Lixuan nodded: "I also think she doesn't know."

"She is bad, a little bad kid, but she is still a child after all, and her mentality is far less stable than that of an adult."

"If she knew the gift was bad, she would have a strange look on her face when she gave it to you. She thought you couldn't see it, but you could definitely tell something was wrong."

“So this is interesting…”

After hearing what her daughter-in-law said, Li Yanhong's mind, which was originally filled with anger, gradually calmed down.

After pushing Jiang Cui, the two old ladies sat around the table.

Just now, when there was nothing else to do, the family members closed the door and fought however they wanted.

It’s different now.

It is now obvious that there are outsiders who want to make trouble and have extended their hands to them. Naturally, the two old ladies have to put aside their personal grudges and unite against the outside world.

Jiang Cui said anxiously, "What's so interesting about this? Stop laughing! The fire is already raging and you're still taking it easy."

"No, if Lu Yang's daughter didn't know that this window paper-cut is unlucky, then why would she send it here?"

Su Lixuan: "She doesn't know, but the person who gave her the window paper-cut knows it."

Does she need to explain this specifically?

As for why the other party used Lu Erbao to send such a scary thing over...

Su Lixuan chuckled. With her experience of reading novels and watching TV dramas in her previous life, wouldn't it be easy for her to figure out the strangeness of such a method?

She tapped her fingers on the table. "This is obviously directed at me."

"No one cares about window paper-cuts and no one will be on guard. If you just stick them on the window, no one will notice."

"I'm afraid that one day the weather will be good, the time and place will be right, and the angle of light will be just right, and the sun will cast a shadow like the one just now in the corner of the room..."

Su Lixuan chuckled: "Maybe if I accidentally see it when I'm not prepared... I might get scared and have a miscarriage?"

"Pooh, pooh, pooh!!!" The two old ladies spat three times and began to mutter, "Don't be surprised if it's strange, children can speak without restraint."

Jiang Cui was so angry that she slammed the table and said, "I'm going to go find the Lu family and ask for an explanation!"

"No rush." ​​Su Lixuan remained seated. "Anyway, we've seen through the strangeness of this window paper-cut, so let's keep it for now."

Jiang Cui: "What are you keeping it for?"

Su Lixuan: "Save it for fishing."

"We're fine now. Even if we break into the Lu family, they'll definitely bite us back and say we're overthinking things."

"Or they'd throw dirty water on us, saying we were just reluctant to give Lu Erbao those few pieces of candy and were deliberately picking on us just for a few pieces of candy."

The Lu family’s unreasonableness was foreseeable.

So instead of sitting there and making a scene, it is better to first find out who made this window paper-cut.

After finding out the truth without alerting the enemy, return this "good intention".

But since this window paper-cut was sent by Lu Erbao, Su Lixuan wondered who was behind it...it was easy to guess...

…

Jiang Cui was still a little confused until she returned home.

When his son Su Liwang came home in the evening, he saw his mother sitting there without a single hot dish on the table. He held his stomach and complained, "Mom, are you trying to starve your own son to death?"

"I've been busy outside all day and just wanted to go home and have a hot meal, but you didn't do anything?"

If he had known that there was no food at home, he could have just eaten something outside.

Why go home just to save some money and end up finding nothing?

Jiang Cui waved her hands impatiently: "I owe you something? Do I have to provide you with food every day?"
