Chapter 9223 Dream


Chapter 9223 Dream

Halfway up a certain peak in Mianniu Mountain, in a teahouse.

Xu Qiaohong didn't sleep well tonight. She suspected that she might have drank a few more sips of tea before going to bed, so even though her eyes were heavy now, her head seemed to be still awake.

She was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, and she could hear her elder brother's thunderous snoring coming from the room across the wall.

She couldn't help but want to laugh in her sleep. Her eldest brother's voice was not as loud as his snoring during the day. It was A Yang's magical operation that allowed him to create such a sound in his sleep. Loud noise?

It’s really a shame for my sister-in-law that she sleeps with her brother. Wouldn’t she suffer from insomnia listening to the snoring?

Ha, although Xiao Hei is honest and solid, like a black cow, Xiao Hei doesn't snore much when he sleeps.

Maybe it was because she had been sleeping with him for a long time and didn’t know it yet, but she liked Xiao Hei regardless of whether he snored or not.

Thinking of Xiao Hei, she turned over in her sleep, thinking that her parents should have finished sending Xiao Hei off by now. After understanding the whole process clearly, they would definitely need a few words of persuasion. .

After finishing the work, I should go back to my home in the town to rest overnight. When I go back to the mountain during the day tomorrow, my mother said that she would bring herself meat and vegetables from the mountain, as well as snacks, pastries, and rouge gouache.

Thinking of this, Xu Qiaohong sighed comfortably. Even though she couldn't sleep, which made her a little irritated, the expectation was real.

If you can't sleep, then you can't sleep. Anyway, I will have a lot of time to catch up on sleep during the day tomorrow.

My days in the tea garden were very leisurely. I was enjoying my time at the knees of my parents, while my father and brothers did hard work and took care of everything in the tea garden.

My mother cooks and washes the clothes for everyone, and I only need to follow my mother to help with the chores, and my life is leisurely.

At this moment, a crisp and sweet sound suddenly came from my ears.

"Dingling bells..."

The corners of Xu Qiaohong's lips were slightly curved while she was half asleep. She knew that it was the wind chimes given to her by Xiao Hei that was ringing.

She liked the string of wind chimes very much, so she hung it in the window before going to bed.

My mother told me not to open the windows when sleeping at night, especially since their tea house is still halfway up a mountain, surrounded by mountains on all sides.

But tonight, my mother was not in the teahouse, so she got naughty.

In order to let the wind blow up and blow the wind chime, she quietly opened half of the window.

Now, the string of wind chimes hanging in the window is ringing in the night wind, crisp and sweet.

Xu Qiaohong can imagine Xiao Hei’s clumsy look when he picked the string of wind chimes. It’s interesting to think about it. It’s really embarrassing for such a silly guy to choose something that a girl likes...

Wait, is there something wrong?

Xu Qiaohong's eyes moved a few times under her eyelids, and she seemed to feel that something was wrong.

Because the sound of the wind chimes colliding became more and more intense, it didn't sound like it was being blown by the wind at all, but rather like it was being shaken violently in someone's hand.

The sound gradually turned from crisp and sweet at first to sharp and harsh, which made Xu Qiaohong on the bed even more upset.

So, she opened her eyes and walked towards the window, intending to close that half of the window.

Suddenly there was a feeling that made her couldn't help but stick her head out and take a look at the kitchen room.

There is an old locust tree growing next to the kitchen. In summer like this, the family basically eats and rests in the shed under the old locust tree.

In early summer not long ago, the old locust trees were covered with locust flowers. My mother would pick the locust flowers and wrap them in wheat flour to make sweet and crispy locust flower noodles for the family.

At this moment, when Xu Qiaohong looked towards the kitchen, she suddenly found a figure standing under the old locust tree at the door of the kitchen.

Although there was moonlight, there was shade under the old locust tree. Xu Qiaohong rubbed her groggy eyes and could not see clearly the person's facial features.

But she was absolutely sure that there was indeed a person standing there, because it was moving. Not only was it moving, but it was also heading towards the kitchen door. Xu Qiaohong thought it was her eldest brother who had gone out at first, but then she realized something was wrong.

Because the snoring of my eldest brother kept coming from the room next door!

Since the eldest brother is in the house, who is that figure going to the kitchen door?

Did a thief sneak into the tea house? Xu Qiaohong was about to scream when suddenly the person pushing the kitchen door coughed.

Mother?

Xu Qiaohong recognized it immediately. The voice was that of her mother.

And look at that figure again, isn’t it just my mother’s back!

Dad and mother didn’t return to town? Instead, he went back to the teahouse overnight?

Thinking of this, Xu Qiaohong shouted towards the kitchen: "Mother, mother!"

"Mother!"

Suddenly, Xu Qiaohong suddenly He sat up and realized that he was still lying on the bed.

What's going on? Was I just dreaming? But that feeling is so real!

The wind chime at the window rang again. Xu Qiaohong came to the window and closed the half-open window.

This time, she took a special look at the old locust tree and the kitchen.

Not a single soul.

Dad and mother didn’t come back at all.

Xu Qiaohong felt strange about her dream just now. She didn't know how she could dream that her mother was back.

But after such an experience, when she lay on the bed again, her eyelids became heavy and she fell asleep quickly.

When she woke up again, she was woken up by her sister-in-law.

My sister-in-law was sitting by the bed, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and there were still tears on her face.

Xu Qiaohong thought she was dreaming again, so she stretched out her hand and pinched herself. It hurt, it hurt, but it was not a dream this time.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying like this with me?" Xu Qiaohong asked blankly.

The Xu family's eldest sister-in-law's tears fell down: "Little sister, what's up, my mother is gone..."

"Gone?"

Xu Qiaohong just Wake up, your brain hasn't returned to normal yet.

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Where has mother gone?"

The eldest sister-in-law didn't speak, she just looked at Xu Qiaohong with tears.

Xu Qiaohong's breath tightened, and her scalp went numb instantly. She grabbed her sister-in-law's wrist and said, "Speak clearly, what's wrong with my mother? What's wrong with her?"

She raised her head and looked around, lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Her body was shaking violently. It was obvious that the new embroidered shoes that her mother had recently made for her were placed in front of the bed. She had worn them several times, but she couldn't even put her feet in them!

She was so anxious that she ran out barefoot. Her sister-in-law was crying and shouting something behind her, but she couldn't hear her. As soon as she rushed out of the house, she found that several people had gathered under the shed at the door.

They were all relatives on both sides of her parents, including her eldest brother, who was also pale and full of sadness.

Seeing Xu Qiaohong rushing out of the house with disheveled hair and bare feet, the eldest brother raised his head and said hoarsely to her: "Qiaohong, my mother, my mother suddenly went away last night, just like my aunt and uncle did back then!"

“We, we will never call mother again!”

No mother will call us again?
