Then, he accidentally saw the calendar hanging on the wall of the main hall in his aunt's house.
The time shown on the calendar... was actually ten months ago!
Zhuang Guiguang was shocked.
He had always thought that the woman he had "traveled through" was from the same generation as him.
After all, this is a rural area, and everyone's dress is not much different from today's. The topics they talk about are just family matters, and they don't touch on current political affairs.
So Zhuang Guiguang really thought that this was the scene of the 㫇㹓.
Unexpectedly, he actually "traveled" to ten thousand years ago!
Zhuang Guiguang was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.
But what shocked him even more was what happened next.
Just after he finished looking at the calendar on the wall, he heard a quarrel coming from the room on the other side of the main hall.
Zhuang Guiguang's "feet" became uncontrollable again, and he cautiously approached the room where the old lady he "traveled through" was eavesdropping on the conversations of the people inside.
It seemed that there was a man and a woman living in it. They were arguing, and the topic of the argument happened to be related to this old lady.
All I could hear was the sharp and noisy sound of a young woman inside.
"Look at how much money you earn in a month. It's not enough for the two of us to spend, and we still have to give it to your mother. She's already sixty years old, and she just needs to have food and a place to live. If you give her money, will she have anywhere to spend it?"
Then came a helpless male voice.
"But that's my mother, she used to..."
Before he could finish, the female voice sounded again.
"Everyone knows that she's your mother! Since she's your mother, she should be thinking about you. Give us all the money she has, save some for herself, and save money for us. Isn't that what a mother should do?"
The male voice did not sound again. It was unclear whether he could not find the words to refute her or he agreed with what she said.
The female voice continued, "Anyway, I'm putting it this way. If she wants to continue living with us and let us support her in her old age, we'll have to use her savings. Otherwise, we won't have the time to take care of her."
As she spoke, the woman's tone changed and softened a few notches.
"We just got married, so we don't have much money to spend right now. But when we have kids, we'll have a lot to spend money on. I'm thinking about us and our kids..."
When Zhuang Guiguang heard the words inside, he quickly figured out that they should be the old lady's son and daughter-in-law.
But what kind of daughter-in-law is this? She has only been married for two months, but she is already instigating her husband to empty her mother-in-law's coffin fund?
The key point is, the man hasn't refuted it yet?
What kind of unfilial son is this? A piece of barbecued pork would be better than him!
Just hearing it made Zhuang Guiguang so angry that he wanted to control the old lady's body and go in to beat her up.
He remembered that when he "traveled" to the old lady's body two days ago, she almost got into a quarrel with someone at the big tree in the village. He guessed that the old lady had a bad temper and should have a bad temper.
He thought that after hearing such words, she would be very angry and would rush in to have a quarrel with her son and daughter-in-law.
However, what he didn't expect was that the old lady did nothing. She even deliberately lightened her steps and movements and returned to her room quietly.
After returning to the house, she picked up a new set of old clothes and continued to mend them.
There was no reaction, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Did he not take his son and daughter-in-law's words to heart at all, or did he not want to or dare to argue with them?
Zhuang Guiguang was thinking when he suddenly saw a few dark marks on the clothes in the old lady's hand, which slowly spread on the fabric like water droplets.
He realized belatedly that those were the old lady's tears.
So it’s not that she didn’t take what her son and daughter-in-law said to heart, but she just didn’t dare and couldn’t argue with them.
Realizing this, Zhuang Guiguang felt depressed.
Later, the old lady started sewing clothes. No one knew how long she had been sewing, but when Zhuang Guiguang woke up again, he was back in his house.
But this time, his mood was much gloomier than the previous two times.
Although his family background was not very good, he had a good relationship with his parents.
Unfortunately, my parents were in poor health and passed away a few years ago.
At that time, Zhuang Guiguang didn't have much money, but he still tried his best to take care of his parents and respect them as much as he could.
Because his parents passed away, he felt sorry for the lonely old people and would help them to the best of his ability.
Especially the old lady he and he "traveled through time", he felt that he and she had a special fate.
Otherwise, why would he "travel" through time and space to her among so many people in the world?
He really wanted to help her, even if it meant rushing to her house and giving her son and daughter-in-law a good beating.
But a bigger problem arises.
He and the old lady didn't seem to be from the same time. The most recent time he "traveled" through time to her body was ten years ago.
He didn't even know what the relationship was like between the old lady and her son and daughter-in-law. Is she okay?
Because of these reasons, Zhuang Guiguang suddenly developed a strong anticipation for "travelling" again, and he couldn't wait for the fourth "travelling" to come soon.
Then he will try to see if he can control the old lady's body and vent her anger!
It is not known whether his wish was heard by the god of time travel, but the fourth "time travel" soon came, and Zhuang Guiguang "traveled" to the body of the old lady again.
However, what he found unbelievable was that this time he "traveled" through time when the old lady was about to die.
When he came through, he found the old lady lying on the bed. He thought it was early and the old lady didn't want to get up.
But soon, he heard bursts of coughing and labored breathing coming from the old lady's mouth.
From the main room, there came voices that were not restrained at all.
She is the old lady’s daughter-in-law.
"Didn't the doctor tell us her illness is incurable? What's the point of sending her to the hospital? It's just a waste of money! My son will be three soon, and kindergarten will cost a fortune. Why don't you save that money for him?"
"Besides, your mother herself said she didn't want to see a doctor, and you're still talking! Get out of my way! I want to take my son to town to buy toys!"
As he spoke, the footsteps gradually faded away.
The old lady's son seemed to stand in the main hall for a while, took a few steps towards the old lady's room, and finally stopped.
After standing at the door for a few seconds, he turned and left.
Zhuang Guiguang learned from their conversation that although this "time travel" was only two days apart from the last time, at least three days had passed for the old lady.
Because last time the old lady's son and daughter-in-law didn't have a child, and now their child is about to be three years old.
He didn't know what the old lady had been through in the past few days, but what he knew now was that she was sick and her condition was probably very serious.
As to whether it was incurable as his daughter-in-law had just said, he was not sure.
It was actually hard for him not to wonder whether the old lady and daughter-in-law had said that on purpose.
They did this to deceive the old lady, lying that her disease was incurable, not that they were unwilling to spend money on her.
