An Ran turned and walked out of the house, followed closely by Cao Kun. An Ran walked under a tree, sat down, looked at the starry sky, and felt uncomfortable thinking of Li Ergou.
A good person was used as a guinea pig. He should have been as confused and helpless as the original owner, right?
Cao Kun sat down beside her, put a piece of clothing on her, and accompanied her silently.
He knew she was feeling bad, and after hearing what she said, he felt upset. He had been searching for so long and finally found her, but he didn't expect to hear such news.
An Ran looked at the stars and asked: Do you think that when people die, they will turn into stars?
Cao Kun also looked up at the sky and answered her question: "Probably. I remember my grandma told me when I was a child that people will turn into stars after they die."
An Ran was silent. Why wasn’t she a star…?
Starting from the first day of autumn harvest, thanks to the farm tools Anran got, the first day of autumn harvest was particularly smooth and fast.
The villagers were very happy, as it was faster and less tiring. Seeing An Ran, they became even more enthusiastic. However, this no longer affected An Ran's mood.
When someone greeted her, An Ran would nod in response...
On the third day of the autumn harvest, heavy rain poured down. Everyone hid at home, but Anran quietly went out.
I have been keeping an eye on Li Genzhu these days. Last night, Li Genzhu went out to dispose of a corpse, and the corpse was picked up by An Ran and brought back to the space.
Now she wants to send Li Ergou back to his village. Even if she can't send him back to her mother, at least he can return to his own village. She hopes that his soul can see his mother...!
When they arrived at Li Ergou's village, near his home, An Ran took out a shovel and started digging a hole. After an unknown amount of time, a big hole was dug.
He took out a coffin made by himself from the space, and Li Ergou was safely placed in the coffin.
A large coffin appeared in the pit. An Ran buried it while saying: Li Ergou, if you are still alive, you should be able to see this. This is near your home. I hope you can rest in peace.
This is all I can do for you for now, but don't worry, those damned beasts will be punished sooner or later.
If you are still alive in heaven, please protect me and help me get rid of those beasts as soon as possible to avenge you and other innocent people...
After doing everything, Anran entered the space, changed her wet clothes, and walked into the yard of Li Ergou's house through the space.
I quietly approached the window and saw an old lady with a haggard face, looking out the window lonely and helpless. She must be missing her son.
An Ran felt a pang in her heart. Thinking of Cao Kun's words, she rubbed her moist eyes, and bitter emotions surged out.
He changed into men's clothes in the space, darkened his face, put on a raincoat, took out fifty yuan, ten kilograms of rice, ten kilograms of flour, some fruit and meat.
He found a corner and made some space, then went to the door, knocked on it and called out: "Auntie Li, are you home?"
Old Mrs. Li ran to open the door. When she saw that it was not her son, she was a little disappointed, but she still asked: "Young man, who are you looking for?"
An Ran said: Hello, Auntie, I am Li Ergou’s friend, we work together. I came back to do some business, and Ergou asked me to come and see you.
When the old lady heard that it was her son who asked her to come, she pulled An Ran into the house and asked while pouring water: "Young man, what kind of work do you and Ergou do?"
Why haven’t you come back after being gone for so long?
An Ran said: We work in a coal mine far away from town and can earn fifteen dollars a month!
Ergou is anxious to earn more money and wants to get married as soon as possible so that you can have a grandchild earlier. So he is reluctant to delay work and can't bear to leave you. Now that I am back, let me come to see you and report to him that I am safe after I go back.
Auntie, this money was earned by Ergou. This is my gift to you as a filial piety. I will bring you a gift next time I come back.
When she put down her things and was about to leave, the old lady stopped her and said: "Young man, don't go. I'll get you something to eat. Eat first and then leave."
After saying that, he ran into the kitchen and started to get busy. Anran looked at the back and felt more and more uncomfortable, but she couldn't bear to refuse this kind-looking old man...
An Ran had no taste for the meal, not because she disliked the food, but when the old man asked about his son, An Ran really didn't know how to answer and could only use one lie to cover up another lie.
After finishing the meal in agony, he hurriedly left using the excuse of having something to do, walked to an empty corner, entered the space, and returned to Li Ergou's house.
I quietly approached the window and saw the old man wiping his tears. My heart skipped a beat. Could it be that I had been exposed?
At this time, I heard the old woman say: Son, you met a good man. Although the child concealed it very well, I am not stupid. I can see that he lied.
Mom knows that you may not be here anymore, but it is a blessing for our family that you can know such a good person.
Don’t be afraid, son. Mom will be there to accompany you soon. You and your dad will wait for me over there. Don’t go too far...
An Ran was in the space, tears wet her face. Having been alone and helpless in two lifetimes, she never knew that family love was like this...!
Only after making sure that Ergou's mother would not commit suicide did An Ran return to Liushu Village. On the way, An Ran's mood calmed down a lot.
As they approached the village, An Ran decided to stay at home while it was raining heavily. She could take advantage of the space and visit Aunt Hua's house, or at least see her family members.
He did it right away and came to Aunt Hua's house. After making sure that there was no one there, he entered the space and moved to Aunt Hua's yard.
But I didn't hear any sound. Could he have fallen asleep?
I slowly moved to the window and looked inside, but I couldn't see anything. What shameful thing was there in the room that was blocked so tightly?
