Aoba Office

Wu Chenxi looked at Ouyang lying on the bed.

I also had to look at Ouyang's face. Her face was sallow and there were deep dark circles under her eyes. Even though he is asleep now, his brows are still furrowed and there is a small "Sichuan" character between his eyebrows.

Wu Chenxi reached out to smooth the wrinkles between Ouyang's brows, but her hands could not touch Ouyang.

She put down her hands and turned to look at the old lady who opened the door.

Ouyang's mother was waiting outside, looking uneasy.

When she saw the old lady coming out, she hurried forward to greet her, then looked behind her.

The old lady turned sideways so that Ouyang's mother could see Ouyang lying on the bed.

"She is asleep. You check in with those people, I want to go out." The old lady said.

Ouyang's mother was startled, "Get out?"

"Yes, go out. I'll go and see the old house." The old lady said matter-of-factly.

My heart skipped a beat.

Wu Chenxi couldn't help but take a few steps closer to the old lady, as if to hear what she said next.

The old lady seemed to just inform Ouyang's mother. She said as she walked out and closed the door.

Wu Chenxi ran a few steps quickly and passed through the door of the room that was about to close.

"What are you doing there? How can this work!" Ouyang's mother refused directly. Judging from her suspicious expression, she was probably afraid that the old lady would make trouble in the past.

I guess the old lady might have really made a fuss when she moved out and sold her house.

The old lady sneered, "If you want your daughter to be well, you want your family to be well, and if you want me, the old woman, to be able to see the boss and little sister in peace, just do as I say!"

Ouyang's mother's voice faltered.

When she looked at the old lady, her eyes became frightened, but she immediately changed to embarrassment. She laughed dryly and said: "Auntie, stop joking. How could it be possible... Did that girl Xiaoxiao say something to you? You Don't take it to heart, I was just anxious at that time... You didn't see Xiaoxiao's appearance that day..."

Ouyang's mother started crying, "Her hands were stained with blood and turned red. The teacher told me that she smashed the door and pulled the little girl's body. Like that...she was dragged in the end. The one who came out...I..."

The old lady lowered her eyes and said, "I asked you to speak, so you go. If you hadn't been here like a prisoner in a labor camp and had to go through the formalities before going out, I would have gone a long time ago! What's the use of crying? Your daughter is learning from you! Just cry, cry, cry! If you have time to cry, it’s better to resolve this matter quickly!”

"Aunt..." Ouyang's mother wiped her tears, but still didn't let go.

What the old lady said was also a bit unbelievable.

When people are desperate, they will turn to supernatural powers. People without religious beliefs will pray and worship, just to get psychological comfort and a good hope.

But what the old lady wants to do is not like praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, but the kind of thing that is brainwashed by feudal superstition and does radical behavior.

Ouyang's mother refused to agree and persuaded her earnestly.

The old lady looked at Ouyang's mother coldly.

The two were in a stalemate, and Ouyang's mother's forehead was dripping with sweat.

Wu Chenxi was a little at a loss.

She hoped that the old lady's idea was right, but she was also very afraid of what the old lady would do.

I could sense her ambivalence.

She clasped her hands together, her disembodied heart beating fiercely.

"If you don't like it, forget it." The old lady said nothing and walked towards the elevator.

"Auntie, where are you going?" Ouyang's mother hurriedly followed.

"Why don't you go down there to bask in the sun? Even if I'm in a cell, I can go out and have some fun!" the old lady said angrily.

Her voice was so loud that the old people in other rooms and the old people in the corridor looked over.

Ouyang's mother was now embarrassed and blushing.

But these old people looked at her without disgust or disgust.

The nurse came from the hall on this floor and asked about the situation.

"I'm going to bask in the sun." That's what the old lady said, and she pressed the elevator button regardless of Ouyang's mother and caregiver. As soon as the elevator came, she didn't mean to wait for anyone. She walked in and closed the elevator door.

Ouyang's mother was a little anxious.

"Don't worry, I'll contact the people on the first floor." The nurse reassured and took out the walkie-talkie on his waist.

Wu Chenxi looked at the indicator light for the elevator to go down. After hesitating for a while, she looked back at the old lady's room, ran to the stairwell next to the elevator, and quickly dropped downstairs.

The old lady had left the house and gone to the garden.

A nurse followed the old lady not far or near.

The old lady sat down on the wooden chair in the garden and turned to glare at the caregiver, "Okay! Where can I go with my old bones? Get out of here and don't block the sun here!"

The anger on the nurse's face flashed away, but he still politely stepped away.

The old men and women chatting next to them while basking in the sun shook their heads.

An old man waved to the scolded nurse, called him in front of him, and advised him: "Little girl, don't be angry. This old lady is also very pitiful. She was forced to come here by her children. Not long after, her son and daughter came out." She died unexpectedly, leaving only a nephew and niece-in-law, who only visited her once in several months. She has a bit of a weird temper, please be considerate."

The nurse smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, I know."

Wu Chenxi walked towards the old lady slowly.

The old lady sat alone in the middle of a bench where two or three people could sit side by side. She still had one hand in her pocket and never took it out.

Wu Chenxi hesitated to speak, opened his mouth, and finally gave up.

She turned around and wanted to go back, but before taking two steps, she looked back at the old lady.

The old lady's back was straight, which was completely different from her previous posture of lazily relaxing and basking in the sun in the room, and was also incompatible with the old people around her.

She looked stubborn and lonely.

I felt very uncomfortable and depressed inside.

Unsurprisingly, what the old lady experienced was "demonstrated" by the Six Villages of Workers and Peasants, and was the cursed fate of all the residents of that community.

Wu Chenxi looked at it for a few minutes and then withdrew his gaze.

From the corner of her eye, she saw the old lady suddenly stand up.

Dark clouds came from the sky and blocked the sun.

Sweet music sounded in the nursing home building. The old people sitting in the garden got up in twos and threes and walked into the building.

A few guards kept order.

The old lady joined the sparse group, but her steps gradually stopped.

Wu Chenxi followed the old lady's line of sight and saw a path that extended from the garden to the side of the building and turned along the green belt under the wall.

The old lady looked at the old people and caregivers and slowly walked towards the path.

Wu Chenxi's heart skipped a beat, and I had a premonition of something.

Without asking me to wait any longer, Wu Chenxi followed the old lady decisively and walked along the road to the back of the dormitory building.
