Downstairs in the hospital, Su Man bought a bouquet of flowers and chose a fruit basket, then carried them upstairs.
Now she is no longer the half-famous white moonlight who would cause a traffic jam wherever she goes.
In order not to cause trouble for the hospital, she covered herself up tightly, wearing a mask and a baseball cap. This outfit startled Chen Yu, who came out to get hot water for Aunt Wu, and Su Man quickly called out "Mom".
After the initial panic, Chen Yu pulled her into the house and said, "Come quickly, your Aunt Wu has just woken up."
Su Man followed Chen Yu in and saw the white-haired woman on the hospital bed, Aunt Wu.
After taking a closer look, Su Man froze in place.
Aunt Wu also had a black jade pendant tied around her neck, exactly the same as Bai Xiaoying's.
At the same time, Aunt Wu seemed to sense something and turned her head.
The moment Su Man saw her, several images suddenly flashed before her eyes.
First, Zhou Man cried until she was hoarse, Aunt Wu stood in front of her and said something, and handed her the jade token.
The scene changed, and Zhou Man was standing in front of the small body covered with white cloth.
She held the jade token in her hand, her eyes were red, but her gaze was firm, as if she had made some important decision.
-
"This is my daughter Zhou Man."
Chen Yu pulled the distracted Su Man to the bedside and said, "Call for help."
Su Man collected her thoughts and said, "Hello, Aunt Wu."
Although Aunt Wu has silver hair, she has a youthful face and looks energetic, not at all like someone who is almost sixty.
Her eyes were frighteningly bright, with distinct black and white eyeballs resting in sunken eye sockets. Her calm and sharp gaze was frightening.
Aunt Wu looked at Su Man intently for a few seconds and said, "Xiaoyu, aren't you going to get some water?"
Chen Yu slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my memory. I'll go now. You guys sit down first."
Chen Yu closed the door when he left.
The hospital is not very quiet. Even with the door closed, you can hear the bed being dragged and the doctor making rounds.
Su Man sat on the chair next to Aunt Wu's bed, took out a banana from the fruit basket and peeled it. She handed the peeled banana to Aunt Wu and said, "Please have some."
Aunt Wu didn't answer. She stared at Su Man intently and said, "Thank you."
Su Man's eyes fell on her neck, "Aunt Wu, the jade pendant you are wearing is very unique."
As soon as the words fell, Aunt Wu's eyes instantly became sharp, "Who are you?"
Su Man played dumb, "What are you talking about? I'm Zhou Man, Chen Yu's daughter."
“…”
Aunt Wu looked at Su Man with suspicion.
Why is this girl's magnetic field so complicated and strange...
"Have you experienced anything strange recently?"
Hearing Aunt Wu's question, Su Man nodded and said, "I recently met a woman who wore the same jade pendant as you."
"Same?"
Aunt Wu immediately denied it, "Impossible, there is only one jade token, unless..."
She didn't continue, but asked, "What does that woman look like?"
Su Man thought about it and, from the perspective of an observer, told Bai Xiaoying all the abnormalities.
Of course, she did not directly point out that Bai Xiaoying was reborn, but she said euphemistically that Bai Xiaoying always seemed to be able to predict the future, and even got pregnant at a critical moment.
...
When Aunt Wu heard that Bai Xiaoying was pregnant, her expression suddenly changed.
"Child? She got pregnant while wearing the jade pendant?"
Su Man noticed the fear in Aunt Wu's tone and immediately asked, "Is there a problem?"
"this..."
Aunt Wu looked as if she had some concerns and didn't want to say more.
But now Su Man is only one step away from the truth, and she doesn't want to give up.
After some thought, Su Man said, "To be honest, this matter has troubled me for a long time. If Aunt Wu can help me solve this problem, you will be my benefactor."
"It's serious. If it weren't for you and your daughter, I wouldn't even be able to save my life now." At this point, Aunt Wu sighed, "Well, I'll tell you."
Su Man's eyes lit up and she listened attentively.
-
It was similar to what Su Man guessed. Aunt Wu was not an ordinary person. Her ancestors were all fortune-tellers.
But as they are passed down from generation to generation, most of them have gradually been lost.
By the time her mother's generation came around, they had completely given up on the inheritance.
It's not just because there are fewer and fewer believers, but also because anyone who does this business never has a good ending.
So by Aunt Wu's generation, all that was left was the jade plaque passed down from her ancestors.
At this point, Aunt Wu lowered her voice and said, "This jade token can bring people back to life."
"Resurrection?" Su Man was speechless.
Aunt Wu smiled. "It sounds like a myth, doesn't it? Someone in our family actually tried it. That person's child died before reaching one year old. Because a person's soul is not complete before the age of one, it can't even be reincarnated. Unable to bear the consequences, she used the method recorded in the forbidden book to allow her child to be reborn."
"Did she succeed?"
Aunt Wu shook her head. "I don't know. My mother just told it like a story. She just said that if you want something, you have to pay for it. Even if that child could return to the world, it would no longer be her child."
"Even if I return to the world, I will no longer be her child..." Su Man murmured to herself.
Suddenly, an idea struck me.
So that's how it is.
This rebirth, this jade token, they're all fake.
The child Bai Xiaoying was pregnant with was not hers at all.
But, Zhou Man's...
-
In her previous life, Zhou Man’s baby died young, and she must have been in great pain.
