When the whole family gathered together for breakfast, whenever Su Miaomiao mentioned having a nightmare, Zhang Xing would ask first.
"Sister-in-law, is the nightmare getting worse again?"
"Um."
Seeing Su Miaomiao nod, Zhang Xing frowned slightly and said, "Give me your wrist."
Su Miaomiao put her wrist on the table without saying a word.
Zhang Xing took her pulse and said.
"The situation isn't good, but it's okay. I'm still short of a few medicines. If you have time, please accompany me to the county pharmacy."
When Xiao Yunfei learned that Su Miaomiao's condition was not good, his face changed suddenly.
He immediately changed his plan and discussed it with Su Miaomiao.
"After dinner, let's go to the county with Zhang Xing to find medicine. Don't go up the mountain yet. Your matter is more important."
Su Miaomiao thought so too, and she nodded in agreement.
"Okay, after we finish taking the medicine, let's drive to the county."
Su Miaomiao said as she turned her gaze to Zhang Xing and asked.
"Is it easy to buy the medicine we need?"
"They are all common medicines, so they should be easy to buy. However, we need a large quantity, so I'm afraid the pharmacy might not have enough. If that doesn't work, we'll just go to a few more pharmacies."
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Think about what else we need. It's a good opportunity to buy them all."
"I know. I know what's going on."
After they discussed it, Su Miaomiao looked at the five children at the table and asked.
"My dears, do you want to take the bus with us to the county, or stay home and let my neighbor, Grandma Yang, take care of you?"
The children looked at each other, and then the eldest child, Xiao Jing, said...
"Mom, we want to be with you."
"Okay, but I have to tell you in advance that we're going out for business this time. We probably won't have time to take you shopping or sightseeing. We'll basically be riding in the car the whole time. Even so, do you still want to come with us?"
When the children heard Su Miaomiao say this, they all nodded to show that they wanted to follow.
Since that was the case, Su Miaomiao agreed directly. There was enough space in the car anyway, so she just took the children for a ride and played.
After dinner, Su Miaomiao and her family packed up simply and immediately got in the van and set off together.
Xiao Yunfei's injuries have basically healed. After he recovered, he rushed to do all the work, for fear of tiring Su Miaomiao.
When they went there, Xiao Yunfei drove and Su Miaomiao sat in the passenger seat.
As soon as the car drove out of the village, the children clamored for Su Miaomiao to tell them stories.
They were particularly interested in the story that Su Miaomiao had told them in the car before, and now even Zhang Xing and Xiao Yunfei were clamoring to listen to the story.
Since she was free anyway, Su Miaomiao just spoiled them and agreed immediately.
She thought about it and said.
"Today I'm going to tell you something different. How about telling you a ghost story first?"
No one dislikes the stories told by Su Miaomiao, and everyone agreed with them.
Su Miaomiao slapped her thigh and said.
"Okay, then I'll get started. Today I'm going to talk about the most famous ghost story in Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, 'Painted Skin.'"
"Once upon a time there was a man named Wang Sheng, a scholar from Taiyuan. One morning he was walking down the street when he met a beautiful woman of seventeen or eighteen..."
The story begins with Su Miaomiao's narration.
As the story progressed, everyone in the car pricked up their ears, listened attentively, and was completely absorbed in the story.
Everyone was still immersed in the story until it was finished.
Su Miaomiao clapped her hands and said.
"Okay, now that this story is over, what are your thoughts? We can discuss it."
Everyone came to their senses.
Xiao Yunfei saw from the rearview mirror that everyone was thinking, so he spoke.
"I think this story teaches us a lesson: evil will be punished. The evil ghost was eventually subdued by the Taoist priest because he had committed too many evil deeds."
After Xiao Yunfei finished speaking, he deliberately paused to see the children's reactions.
He knew that Su Miaomiao wanted to inspire the children through this story, so he wanted to guide the children to continue.
At this time, the second brother Xiao Zhong raised his hand and said.
"Besides what Dad said about evil being punished, I also believe that good is rewarded. Wang Sheng's wife, Chen, was kind and loyal. Because she was willing to endure humiliation to save Wang Sheng, Wang Sheng was finally resurrected."
Su Miaomiao was very satisfied after hearing this and she gave Xiao Zhong a thumbs up.
"My son is so smart, and what he said is absolutely right. To sum it up, good and evil will eventually be rewarded. We can't control others in this world, but we can choose what kind of person we want to be. Being a kind person may not bring immediate rewards, but the peace of mind and satisfaction it brings cannot be measured by material things. From now on, each of us should strive to be a kind person, okay?"
Before Su Miaomiao finished speaking, the children rushed to speak.
"good!"
"I also want to be a kind person. Even if I don't get anything, I will always be kind. I believe that kind people will definitely have good results."
"Me too. I want to be a kind person too. I think my sister is a kind person, my mother is a kind person, my father and uncle are kind people, and everyone in my family is kind."
"God will definitely help kind people, I believe!"
"I believe it too."
The children spoke with emotion.
Su Miaomiao listened patiently and waited until the children had finished speaking before she asked.
"Besides the fact that good and evil will eventually be rewarded, do you have anything else to say after hearing this story?"
Su Miaomiao observed the children's reactions and began to guide them.
"Why do you think Wang Sheng suffered this? Why was he murdered?"
As soon as the question was asked, Xiao Jing was the first to answer.
"Because Wang Sheng encountered a female ghost."
Su Miaomiao asked again pretending to be confused.
"Is it just because he encountered a female ghost? But it did remind him."
Under the guidance of Su Miaomiao, the third brother Xiao Bao said.
"Because he coveted the beauty of the female ghost."
The fifth brother Xiao Yong echoed.
"Second brother is right. Wang Sheng brought the female ghost home because he thought she was beautiful. He didn't even realize that the person he brought home was a female ghost."
The fourth brother Xiao Guo said.
"I think the most important thing is that the female ghost brought the painted skin and disguised herself as a beautiful woman, so Wang Sheng fell for it."
The second brother Xiao Zhong said.
"It's not just because of the ghost. If Wang Sheng didn't believe the ghost and hadn't been tempted by her beauty and brought her home, this wouldn't have happened."
Xiao Jing took over.
"Yes, Wang Shenghu is such a jerk. He believes everything people say. If he didn't believe in female ghosts, he wouldn't have died."
Under Su Miaomiao's guidance, the children bravely expressed what they were thinking.
Su Miaomiao listened patiently and then concluded.
"You are all right. My babies are all very smart. Let's analyze them point by point."
