Chapter 19 The Girl Being Cyberbullied
Jiang Ci deliberately scared him: "I'm talking to your grandma."
Hao You's face changed at first, and he stared at her for a long while. Then he spoke with a hoarse voice, "Is she really here?"
Jiang Ci glanced at Grandma Hao who was pulling at her cotton-padded jacket and nodded.
"Grandma..." Hao You looked around, and finally his eyes stopped on the bed where Grandma Hao slept before she died.
Then he reached out and groped over.
Song Ran, who was sitting on the bed, dodged back and forth, and said with a smile: "Your grandma is in the corner."
Hao You could neither hear nor see, but he kept calling for his grandma with red eyes.
Jiang Ci simply said: "If you want to see your grandmother, bring the cinnabar and yellow talisman over, and I can let you see them."
"Really? You have this ability! Wait a moment!" Hao You excitedly took out a large stack of yellow talismans and stuffed them into Jiang Ci's hands, "Here, here, as long as you can let me see grandma, these talismans are free!"
It's rare for him to be so generous.
Seeing Hao You's expectant look, Jiang Ci glanced at the three ghosts in the room and kindly reminded him: "There's more than just your grandma here."
Hao You was so excited that he didn't care who was there. "Let me see grandma!"
Jiang Ci picked up the brush and dipped it in cinnabar, then he used all his strength to write a talisman with every stroke of his pen.
"Carry this ghost-seeking talisman with you. It is valid for three days."
Hao You took the talisman without thinking.
The moment he touched the talisman paper, three dark ghost shadows suddenly appeared in the originally empty room.
He first looked at the bed and saw a beautiful female ghost sitting there.
Song Ran greeted him with a smile: "Hi~"
He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that ghosts were not scary at all, but rather very beautiful!
Hao You moved his eyes to the lower right and saw a familiar figure. Before he could even grin, he saw a headless ghost creature next to him.
The key point is that his grandmother was holding one hand and hitting the headless ghost's neck.
"Fuck..."
Hao You rolled his eyes and fell straight down.
"Oh my grandson!" Granny Hao rushed over and slapped Hao You's face with her hand.
"Xiao You, wake up! Do you want grandma to call your soul back?"
Hao You vaguely heard his grandmother's voice, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the rotten hand patting his face.
He rolled his eyes and fainted again.
"You're so fragile, how dare you guard the shop alone at night?" Jiang Ci complained.
She thought this boy was very brave to be guarding the incense and candle shop.
Unexpectedly, he is quite cowardly.
It took Hao You several minutes to wake up.
When I saw Grandma Hao's gloomy but amiable face, I burst into tears like a child, "Grandma!"
It's a pity that the two are separated by life and death and can't hug each other.
Both of them came up empty-handed.
Jiang Ci thought about it, then drew another talisman that could enhance the power of ghosts and stuck it on Grandma Hao's back.
Now the man and the ghost can finally touch each other.
Granny Hao hugged Hao You with tears streaming down her face. The words she wanted to say to blame him for being lazy were stuck in her throat. All she could say was one sentence, "Grandson, did grandma scare you?"
"Grandma, you are the one I miss the most. How could you scare me? It was the ghost in the corner that scared me." Hao You burst into tears, "I always felt that you were still by my side. It turned out to be true. Grandma, you didn't leave!"
"After you passed away, I was alone in the shop. Sometimes I was so tired from playing games that I fell asleep. When I woke up, I would inexplicably find an extra piece of thin clothing on my body. The paper figurines that were scattered all over the place the day before would be neatly placed in the corner the next day. And Da Huang, who used to bark like a dog at the door of the shop, no longer dared to come over and bark..."
Granny Hao is an ordinary wandering soul and logically doesn’t have much power to control objects.
But her love for her grandson allows her to do small things for him within her ability.
Jiang Ci thought thoughtfully: "So when you said yesterday that there were surveillance cameras in the shop, you were referring to Granny Hao?"
"Yes, I always feel that my grandma is around me, so if someone steals something, my grandma will definitely follow him like a ghost!" said Hao You.
Song Ran: "Why does the word lingering sound weird to me?"
Grandma Hao said, "You are worthy of being my eldest grandson, you are so smart! But Xiaoyou, even though our business is not doing well, you can't let your ambitions get ruined by playing around. If you don't like this business, grandma won't force you to stay in this shop. You can do what you like."
Song Ran's eyes were filled with envy: "It would be great if I had this milk."
It is a very happy thing for a person to be able to do what he likes as he pleases.
There are so many people in the world, how many can do whatever they want?
They are just living zombies.
Jiang Ci motioned for her to come out.
The headless ghost couldn't see her eyes and squatted in the corner with a wronged look on his face.
There were a lot of green vegetables and beans planted in the square yard. Jiang Ci and Song Ran sat under the eaves to enjoy the cool air, while the two of them were excitedly chatting about family matters in the house.
"I committed suicide... Are Grandpa and Dad very angry?" Song Ran said with his head down: "They must blame me for bringing shame upon myself."
Jiang Ci gently held her hand and said, "You don't have to care about other people's opinions. Your life is your own, not for others to see."
"If you want to talk, I'm here."
Although Jiang Ci is decisive and cold-hearted, she always unconsciously reveals her gentle side when facing other female victims.
Song Ran was stunned for a moment before he slowly confessed the grievances he had suffered over the years.
"From childhood to adulthood, I have almost no time of my own. My father forced me to go to the Children's Palace to practice calligraphy every day. In my free time, I had to spend time in the library reading famous classics, ancient poems and nouns. When I got home, my father would check on me. If I couldn't recite it, I would be punished to kneel down all night on an empty stomach..."
"At school, I was not allowed to hang out with students who had poor grades, and I was not allowed to have other hobbies."
"For my dad, hobbies are all about distractions."
"Especially when he found out that I was secretly acting without telling him, he almost beat me to death."
"But I'm still very happy, at least I can do what I like."
"But Master Jiang, why are there so many unreasonable people in the world?"
"Because I played a vicious second female lead, I was attacked and verbally abused...even all my subsequent work was reported and cancelled. The comments section on my Weibo and even the private messages were full of people cursing me and telling me to die."
Song Ran's face was full of tears when he said this.
"There is a netizen who keeps scolding me every day. He photoshops me into ghost pictures, pornographic pictures, and car accident pictures and sends them to me. I blocked him, so he has a thousand small accounts to scare me in different ways..."
"He made me feel like I was the worst person in the world."
