After experiencing the strange photo incident, the old man felt that there were eyes watching him in this room.She was angry and scared, so she hurried to the bathroom to take a shower, and then hid under the blanket.

Not long after, the old man fell asleep.

Around ten o'clock in the evening.

The sound of an electric car came from outside the door.

The door was opened from the outside, and a man in a delivery man's costume came back.

Recently, it is the peak season for takeaway. Men work until late every day before returning home. From 8 am to 10 am, they can earn about 300 yuan a day.

After he pushed the electric car in, he closed the door.

The man walked straight to the kitchen.

When he came to the kitchen, he casually glanced at the photo frame next to the clay stove.He turned it over and took a look, "What's the matter, why did you throw away the mother's photo?" He picked up the photo frame again and put it vertically aside.

"Thank you!" A woman's voice suddenly sounded in my ear.

The man froze for a moment, and took off the earphones from his ears.I looked around and there was no one there.He must have heard it wrong, he didn't take it too seriously, put on the earphones again, and listened to the tomato novel.

The man took out a fairly hot meal from the pot, put it down on the dining table in front, and sat on a chair to eat.

Halfway through the meal, footsteps came from behind.

He thought it was his mother.On weekdays, my mother often wakes up at this point, because I always go home at this time.

"Mom, bring me half a bottle of drink from the refrigerator."

It didn't take long for him to hear the sound of the refrigerator being opened, footsteps sounded behind him again, and a bottle of drink was placed on the table.

The man picked up the drink and opened the bottle cap, and took a few gulps.

"Mom, bring me the peanuts from the back."

After a while, a plate of peanuts was placed on the table.

"Thank you mom."

He poured all the peanuts in the plate into the rice bowl, and picked up the rice with chopsticks.

After eating, the man went to the kitchen to wash all the dishes and chopsticks. When he was leaving, he was about to close the kitchen door, but he found a person sitting by the door of the stove.

Since the light was off, the kitchen was very dark, and the man could only see a vague figure from his back.

"Mom, what are you still doing sitting there, don't you sleep?"

The back figure didn't respond.

The man didn't ask any more questions. After turning on the light in the kitchen, he went up to the second floor.

After taking a shower, he went back to the room and saw that his wife and children were asleep, and the man carefully laid down next to his wife.

……

The old man had a dream, in which he heard someone knocking on the door all the time.She wanted to open her eyes to open the door, but her eyelids were heavy and she couldn't open them no matter how hard she tried.She struggled to get up, but her body couldn't move.

This situation continued for a long time.

Until the next morning the rooster crows.

The old man opened his eyes abruptly.

The sky outside the window was slightly brighter.

The old man sat up from the bed, looked at the time, it was 5 o'clock in the morning.She felt back pain, as if she had done physical work last night.Stretching out his hands to rub his back and waist, he recalled the dream he had last night, and his spine felt chills.

She subconsciously looked at the place where the photos were hung before, and it was already empty.

After dawn, I will burn the photos, and nothing will happen if I burn them.

In fact, now that I think about it carefully, since I hung up those two photos, I have been not going well.

She lay on the bed again, and managed to survive until dawn.

Get up at 7 o'clock.

As soon as the old man opened the door, he saw that the light in the kitchen behind was on.

"My son, you forgot to turn off the lights again. It's a waste of electricity to keep the lights on all night." She went to the back of the kitchen and turned off the lights while complaining.

She saw two photos of herself placed vertically next to the clay stove.The person above was staring at him with a pair of eyes, and the person watching was horrified.

Feeling very unlucky, the old man picked up the two photos and went outside, throwing them beside the big tree outside the gate.

"I'll burn you when the sun comes out, and let you scare my granddaughter."

When the old man returned to the house, he heard a sound coming from the second floor.

She shouted displeasedly: "Zifeng, you left the kitchen light on last night, it was on all night."

The son's impatient voice sounded.

"Mom, you didn't turn it off yourself, did you?"

"Nonsense, I went to bed early last night, obviously you didn't turn off the lights when you came back from dinner."

The son smiled, "Mom, you were still up when I was eating yesterday. I went upstairs to sleep, but you were still sitting by the door of the stove, did you forget?"

"I don't even get up at night."

"I woke up obviously, and you brought me a drink from the refrigerator, and brought me a bowl of peanuts from the kitchen at the back."

"You child, I went to bed at nine o'clock last night, where can I get you drinks and peanuts?"

"You took it."

"I didn't take it."

"What are you two arguing about in the morning? You woke up the children." Qian Bingbing's frantic voice sounded.

The granddaughter burst into tears.

The old man is still saying: "You usually say that I have a bad memory, but you are so forgetful at the age of 30. If you insist that I got up last night, it is clearly because you did not turn off the lights. This is the first time you have not turned off the kitchen. Is the light off? This month’s electricity bill has increased by more than 100 yuan.”

"It's really funny. Did I sleepwalk while sitting in front of the stove last night?"

Qian Bingbing came out of the bedroom with her daughter in her arms. With her messy long hair on her head, she stood on the handrail of the stairs and said, "Are you sure that the person sitting at the door of the stove last night is your mother?"

"It's not mom who is it?"

"I put those two photos at the stove door last night." Qian Bingbing's meaning was already obvious.

The old man who reacted widened his eyes.

The man asked inexplicably, "Mom, why did you lose the photo you spent tens of dollars on? Don't you like it very much?"

Qian Bingbing looked at her husband and said, "The person in the photo has passed away."

"what?"

She told her husband all about yesterday's fortune-telling. After the man finished listening, his hand that was about to put on his coat stopped. "You...you mean last night..."

He thought about it carefully, the footsteps last night did not drag the floor, they were very light, and it was indeed different from his mother's footsteps.

And that "Thank you!"

The man's face changed slightly.

"Mom, did you really not get up last night?"

"No."

"Honey, don't you too?"

Qian Bingbing shook his head.

The man felt goosebumps all over his body, "Then... that must be..." The three of them already understood the words before they spoke.

Qian Bingbing handed her daughter to her husband, "Hold." She ran downstairs.

"What are you going to do?"

"Burn photos."

Qian Bingbing was about to run to the kitchen after going downstairs when the old man stopped her, "Outside."

She walked to the altar, took a lighter, and ran outside.

Those two photos were lying quietly beside the big tree at this time.
