460 The Mystery of Life



Vip460's origin mystery

The children reconciled and offered their seats to each other. After a while, no one was willing to sit down, so they walked hand in hand to the stove, trying to find another bench from underneath. After searching for a long time, they couldn't find one, muttered a few words, and reached into the crack in the wall to find a stool.

Wan Qing said anxiously: "No **! There are bugs!"

The four adults thought that there must be snakes, insects, rats and ants in such places, so they ran over quickly, picked up the person and stepped back.

The two were not afraid of the potential danger and were somewhat dissatisfied when being carried away. Dangdang raised his little hand, which was covered with dirty dust, but held a colorful candy.

Wanqing was startled, took it, squeezed it, and found that there was indeed candy inside, as if it was given to them during the Chinese New Year. She asked, "Why did you put the candy here?"

"Save it." Ding Ding tilted her head and said, "Mom will eat it."

Wan Qing's eyes were wet, and she touched her head: "Don't put it anywhere in the future... I'll buy you a jar when I get home, and you can keep it in the jar, okay?"

Ding Ding didn't quite understand this, so she didn't comment. She just turned her head and looked at the dilapidated door: "Home..."

"This is not home." Wan Qing reached out to wipe the dust off her hands, "Home is where my parents are."

As they were talking, Dangdang reached out to take the candy from the wall again, and Wanqing quickly pulled it back: "No, they're all bitten by bugs. You'll get sick if you eat them."

Mu Tianyang took a curious look and thought that these two children were really gifted. They knew how to store food at such a young age. They would definitely not waste it when they grow up. Seeing the color of candy wrappers still showing through the cracks in the wall, he picked up a wooden stick from the ground to dig it out - just in case, it would be bad if he dug out a hibernating animal.

After digging twice, four or five candies fell out.

Ding Ding swallowed, lay on Wan Qing's legs and said, "Mom, I want to eat."

"You can't eat this." Diseases come from the mouth, so how could Wan Qing dare to give it to her?

Ding Ding pursed her lips.

Mu Tiancheng hurriedly took out two lollipops from his pocket: "Come on, uncle has some here." He bought them on the way after having breakfast at Xiao Xiao's place, just to amuse the child.

The two children immediately grinned and said sweetly: "Uncle is so nice~"

Mu Tiancheng was so happy that he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Wanqing hesitated to say, "Be careful, watch them eat, don't let them take it all in, otherwise it might get stuck in their throats if they bite it off."

Mu Tiancheng was startled and didn't dare to give them the candy. But the two kids had already snatched the candy away, so he could only stare at them.

Mu Tianyang, who was standing next to him, was still looking at the crack in the wall where the candy was hidden. He saw a rope sticking out from inside, and it seemed like there was something else. He pulled the rope out and pulled out a small cloth bag, just like the bag that old country folks used to hang under their pipes when they smoked dry tobacco. It was tied with a rope and tightened with a pull.

Mu Tianyang felt something inside, it was quite heavy, it seemed to be a coin. He glanced at the child: How can he make money at such a young age?! He couldn't help but frown, pulled the rope apart, and a metal chain fell out.

Zou Zheng exclaimed and reached out to take it.

Mu Tiancheng also made a sound of surprise and looked at Mu Tianyang: "What is this? It looks quite exquisite."

Wanqing also looked at it. It was a silver-white chain. Judging from its length, it should be a necklace, with a few small metal pieces on it for decoration. Looking closely, the small metal pieces turned out to be in the shape of playing cards: plum blossoms, walnuts, diamonds, hearts...

Mu Tianyang suddenly looked up at her: "Why do you put things here?"

"Me?" Wan Qing turned around, "This is not mine! I didn't know there was this hole!" She looked at the cloth bag in his hand, and felt a chill in her heart for no reason. She hurriedly said, "Throw it away! I don't know who left it here, be careful of evil spirits! There are so many messed up legends in places like this, it's really scary."

"You really didn't put it there?" Mu Tianyang looked at her in surprise, and lowered his head to look at the paper in his hand, which he took out of the small cloth bag. He handed the paper to her, "Your mother's name is on it."

Wan Qing's body trembled violently, and her eyes widened: "How is it possible?!"

Seeing that she was frightened, Mu Tianyang patted her shoulder and said, "Relax."

Wanqing swayed and reached out to grab the paper hurriedly: "How is this possible?" As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

Mu Tianyang was afraid that she would tear the paper, so he held it up carefully for her to see. On the paper were written the three big words "Xu Kewei" and three lines of smaller words next to it.

The first line was "March 16th of a certain year". Wan Qing was stunned for a moment. The number was Xu Kewei's birthday, but the year was not the year Xu Kewei was born. It should be when she was two years old.

The second line reads "No. XX, Street, City C, outside the watch shop, next to the fountain". It seems to be an address, and it is an address in City C!

The third line is...Kewei can wear this item with her.

Wan Qing felt as if something hit her head hard. She pulled the paper away fiercely. Fortunately, Mu Tianyang didn't hold it tightly, otherwise it would have been torn to pieces. She stared at it for a long time, tears blurring her eyes. She turned around and took the necklace from Zou Zheng's hand, saying in disbelief: "How is it possible? Is this really my mother's thing? But how is it possible! It wasn't put there by me! How is it possible?!"

This place had nothing to do with her before she came, so how could there be her mother's things in it?

Mu Tianyang held her shoulders: "Calm down. Isn't your mother an orphan? Maybe... this is her original home."

Wan Qing was shocked, and then she looked down at the paper in her hand. Suddenly she grabbed his hand and said, "Look, this paper has turned yellow. I don't know how many years it has been... and it was written with a brush!"

Zou Zheng asked: "Who originally lived here? Let's ask them."

Wanqing paused for a long time before she said, "It was Second Grandma Xu, she has been dead for many years... I heard... she was crazy."

Wanqing looked at the paper in her hand. Could it be that Second Grandma Xu had put it there? She knew very little about Second Grandma Xu. It was Boss Wen who mentioned it when he learned that she lived in this room. As a result, Xiao Xiao was afraid of scaring her, so he ordered Boss Wen not to mention it again.

Zou Zheng said, "Then let's go back to find the old lady first. This necklace, if I'm not mistaken, is the one our old lady drew when she was looking for her daughter."

"What?!" Wan Qing, Mu Tianyang and Mu Tiancheng were all shocked at the same time.

Zou Zheng said, "I heard that the old man asked someone to make it for him. Because the old lady was an excellent gambler, it was made to look like a playing card. Two necklaces were made, one for each of the two girls. Later, when the situation became tense, the old man and the old lady were afraid of accidents, so they asked someone to take the two girls away to prevent any accidents. Before leaving, the old lady handed the necklace to the eldest girl. At that time, the eldest girl was six years old and the second girl was just over two years old. I think this should be the eldest girl's... Well, it could also be the second girl's. There is only one necklace, could it be that the eldest girl and the second girl were separated?"
