Lin Xi looked at the old ghost next to him, whose eyes were wide open, and said, "Just follow it."
Seeing that the talisman paper was about to disappear, the old ghost only had time to quickly thank Lin Xi and the others, and then disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.
Cui Guojun watched the old ghost disappear and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that he could return home smoothly and find his relatives.
This love affair was a rather wonderful experience for Cui Guojun, but after two days of feeling emotional, he continued to devote himself to his own life and buried this love affair in his memory.
He thought that as time passed, he would no longer have any connection with this incident.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, a couple about his age came to see him.
The couple revealed their identities right away. They turned out to be the son and daughter-in-law of the old ghost!
The two of them came here specifically to thank Cui Guojun, Lin Xi and others.
Cui Guojun was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the descendants of the old ghost would look for him.
From this point of view, the old ghost should have successfully found his family and returned home.
After thanking Cui Guojun, the couple briefly explained his father's situation.
It turns out that the old ghost was not suffering from Alzheimer's disease when he was alive.
It just so happened that he fell into the water and died while chasing this fishing rod while fishing.
Before his death, his head was hit by a stone in the water, causing him to suffer temporary amnesia.
Once he passed away, I was able to temporarily forget a lot of things because I maintained the same state as when he passed away.
As for why he remembered the fishing rod, it was of course because he had a particularly strong desire to grab the fishing rod before he died.
The fishing rod was not actually very valuable, but it was a gift from his wife. Since his wife passed away, it had a different meaning to him.
That's why he was so anxious when the fishing rod accidentally fell into the water and jumped in without thinking.
"...Hey, we've told him not to go fishing alone, but he won't listen."
As the couple talked, they couldn't help but feel sad.
But what comforted them was that they still had the chance to see their father in their dreams after his death, so they had no regrets.
The old man told them everything about the fishing rod and Cui Guojun's story in his dreams.
In the dream, the old man specifically told them to go and thank Cui Guojun and others.
If it weren't for them, he would probably still be a wandering ghost outside, unable to even find his own grave.
That's why the couple rushed over.
After telling everything, they handed Cui Guojun a thank-you gift and then asked him for Lin Xi's address.
Lin Xi met the two descendants of the old ghost downstairs in the dormitory.
After knowing their purpose, he did not refuse and accepted the thank-you gift.
After a brief chat, the couple said goodbye and left, and Linxi went upstairs with the thank-you gifts given by the two.
Several roommates were in the dormitory, so Lin Xi opened his things and shared them with everyone.
The couple sent some perfect food, some fruits, and a few boxes of dried goods, which looked not cheap.
Xu Jing asked as she ate, "(Chew, chew, chew) These cherries are really good. By the way, Xiaoxi, how did you spend Christmas this year? Do you have any plans?"
Lin Xi shook his head.
Although the school and the streets were filled with the strong Christmas atmosphere, Lin Xi still didn't feel much about such a festival.
After all, she had only celebrated two Christmases so far.
If Xu Jing hadn't asked her, she probably wouldn't have thought about how to celebrate this festival.
But Xu Jing also reminded her.
Lin Xi thought back to last year and asked curiously, "I wonder if there will be any new restaurants opening this year."
If there is, she would have to hurry up and get the likes on her Moments.
This year she will definitely get a chance to have a free meal!
Xu Jing: “…”
If she didn't know that Lin Xi was not short of money at all, she would have thought that her life was very difficult.
But speaking of new restaurants, there are indeed some.
Business is not good now. Many stores open and close, and are quickly taken over by new stores. Isn’t the new store here?
"Hey, I don't have any either, so why don't we go out to eat on Christmas Day like last year?"
Lin Xi naturally had no objection.
However, there are still a few days before Christmas, so they can use these days to carefully choose a restaurant.
A few days passed in a flash.
The day before Christmas happened to be Friday, and Lin Xi and Xu Jing originally planned not to go back home on Friday, but to go home separately after dinner on Saturday.
Unexpectedly, on Friday night, Xu Jing suddenly received a call.
It seemed like there was something urgent on the other end of the phone. She didn't have time to explain to Lin Xi. She just quickly said that she was going out for a while and then left the dormitory.
Xu Jing did not return to the dormitory at night. She only sent a voice message to Lin Xi around ten o'clock.
In the voice message, Xu Jing apologized to her in a tired tone, saying that she might not be able to accompany Lin Xi to dinner tomorrow because one of her aunts had a family emergency and she had to go and accompany her.
Lin Xi expressed her understanding and told her to let him know if she needed anything.
Unexpectedly, after she said this, Xu Jing actually called her the next morning.
"Well, Xiaoxi, there might be something that needs your help. Can you come over now?"
Lin Xi naturally did not refuse, and quickly took a taxi to the address Xu Jing sent her.
It was an ordinary residential area. When she got off the bus, Xu Jing was already waiting for her at the gate of the community.
As soon as Lin Xi got out of the car, Xu Jing thanked and apologized, feeling embarrassed for ruining Lin Xi's Christmas.
Lin Xi didn't have any special feelings about this. Christmas was just an ordinary day for her to visit stores.
She interrupted Xu Jing: "Tell me what happened here first."
Xu Jing nodded, and while taking Lin Xi to the community, she told her about the incident.
The person who called her last night was actually Xu Jing's father. Her father told her that Aunt Dong had something wrong at home and asked her to go and comfort her if she had time.
Xu Jing's mother passed away very early, and she grew up with her father. However, she still needed the care of female elders in her life, and Aunt Dong played the role of half-parent to her.
Aunt Dong is a relative on her father's side. She is a very nice person. When Xu Jing was a child, she often bought things for her and chatted with her. Xu Jing has always had a very good relationship with her.
So when Xu Jing heard that Aunt Dong was leaving, she didn't care about anything else and went to her house immediately.
When we got there, we found out that the person who had gone out was Aunt Dong's son.
Her son had been in a car accident and is now in the hospital receiving emergency treatment.
When Xu Jing arrived, she happened to see Aunt Dong going to the hospital, so she accompanied her. On the way there, she asked her if her son had been hit by a car.
After all, in her impression, Aunt Dong's son is a three-good young man with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor, and it is unlikely that he would do anything that violates traffic laws and regulations.
After asking, we found out that Aunt Dong's son was suspected of speeding and then had a car accident.
