Chapter 8: Different paths between humans and ghosts
After eating the cake, they set off again without any further delay.
Not long after, one person, one flower and one ghost arrived on the mountain in Anming County and arrived in front of Su Qian’s tomb.
At this time, they are all invisible. This is the ability given to the director by the seal itself. Su Qian is a ghost herself and cannot be seen by ordinary people, even if she can ask for leave now. She came to see her daughter, but only she could see her daughter. Zhao Ying needed an opportunity to see her.
If the opportunity never comes, it is very likely that Zhao Ying will not be able to see Su Qian at the end of the 5-day leave period.
As for what the opportunity is, even Xu Qingling doesn't know.
"Is this my tomb?" Su Qian looked at the small grave covered with grass in front of her. Perhaps it was because she died too young, or perhaps because she did not die at the end of her life, so according to the The custom here is not even to have a tombstone.
Su Qian didn't care much about where she was buried. Now she only cares about her daughter and when Zhao Yuan and Lin Yin will get the punishment they deserve.
“I don’t know when Xiaoying will come.”
As he was talking, there was sudden movement from the bottom of the mountain. Shasha hurriedly stepped forward to take a look, and then said happily to Su Qian: “ It’s Sakura here.”
Su Qian's eyes lit up, full of excitement, she could finally see her daughter up close.
At this time, it was Zhao Lanlan who came up from the mountain carrying a drawing board and a school bag.
Zhao Lanlan came out without telling her family. She only told them that she was going out to find inspiration for Zhao Tang's painting, and they agreed.
So, Zhao Lanlan, carrying a drawing board and a schoolbag, took a car to Anming County in the next city.
Now we are on this mountain, where her mother’s cemetery is.
Su Qian stared blankly at her daughter who was getting closer and closer to her, unable to hold back the tears of blood.
Seventeen years have passed, and Sakura has grown up and become a beautiful girl.
You can see that her eyes and mouth resemble hers.
Back then, she only had time to take a look before she closed her eyes. At that time, Sakura was still a newborn baby.
"Xiao Ying..." Su Qian couldn't hold back and shouted when her daughter was about to walk in front of her.
The wind blew gently by her ears, and Zhao Lanlan seemed to hear a strange and gentle voice calling her name in a trance, but she looked up and scanned her surroundings, but saw nothing.
Then her eyes gradually dimmed and she slowly passed by Su Qian.
Su Qian looked at her daughter's back and wanted to reach out to grab it, but her hand passed through her body and could not be touched at all.
"Su Qian, people and ghosts have different paths." Xu Qingling said calmly from the side.
Su Qian looked at her empty hands. At this moment, she finally understood what Xu Qingling said about the different paths between humans and ghosts.
He murmured: "Xiaoying, she can't see me or hear me calling her..."
Here, Zhao Lanlan came to the tomb bag. She knelt down first and knelt down hard. Three heads, with red eyes, choked slightly and said: "Mom, you are unfilial." Girl Sakura is here to see you.”
After kneeling for a long time, Zhao Lanlan stood up. She first placed the cherry blossom made of strings in front of the grave bag from her schoolbag, and then took it out from her schoolbag. A sickle, cutting grass while talking to Su Qian.
"Mom, Aunt Zhou Min was originally going to come today. She has been coming every year at this time before, but yesterday, she sent me a message saying that she had something very important and she couldn't come for the time being. It may take a few days before I can come see you. "
"Mom, I've been doing very well recently. In this month-end exam, I got first place in the grade again. I think if you know, It will definitely be a pleasure.”
Here, Xu Qingling, Shasha and Su Qian all sat down on the floor and listened to Zhao Lanlan's words.
Su Qian listened and responded, even though she knew her daughter couldn't hear it at this time. "Zhou Min, she is my mother's best friend. She has always been very good to her and very protective of her. At the beginning, she actually did not suggest that I and Zhao Yuan be together. Unfortunately, my mother did not listen..." Su Qian's tone was a little bit Sad.
"No. 1 in the whole grade. Our little Sakura is really good, even better than mom at that time." Su Qian looked at her daughter with pride in her eyes. When Su Qian was studying in the past, her grades were also very good. Not bad, but at best she would be among the top ten in her grade. She prefers painting.
“Mom, I don’t want to draw for Zhao Tang, I want to draw for myself, I want to participate in the competition myself.”
"Of course." Speaking of this, Su Qian became angry, "Why should I, Su Qian's daughter, cheat for their daughter? If you don't have the ability, don't go and participate. Why should you use your hard work and achievements? It’s so shameless.”
“And that Zhao Yuan is also a daughter, why is he so partial! It’s true that if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather.”
Su Qian was so angry that a sinister wind blew up around her.
"Su Qian, control your emotions. Your daughter will get sick if her body is eroded by Yin Qi." Xu Qingling warned.
Su Qian quickly calmed down after hearing this.
Zhao Lanlan looked at the cold wind that suddenly blew up from the ground and dissipated after a while. She stared at it, thoughtfully.
Zhao Lanlan continued to talk about her life in the past year and all kinds of interesting things that happened.
"Mom, I actually like watching movies. If possible, I would like to watch it with my mother."
"Of course, we can go together as mother and daughter sometime. "
Zhao Lanlan talked a lot, but Su Qian responded to every word.
By the time the grass was cut, Zhao Lanlan's forehead was already covered with sweat, and the sun was rising, making her face a little red.
Although he was a little tired, Zhao Lanlan was very happy.
"Silly boy, you don't have to worry about these things." Su Qian wanted to reach out to wipe the sweat from her daughter's face, but stopped halfway, remembering that she couldn't touch her daughter, so she just Can retract his hand.
After cutting the grass, Zhao Lanlan set up the drawing board and began to mix the paint again.
"Mom, the theme of this painting competition is mom. I never knew how to draw before, but now, I know how to draw..."
"Really, let mom take a look."
Soon, the paint was mixed, Zhao Lanlan sat on the floor and started her painting.
At this time, the sun was shining down, and it should have been very hot, but Su Qian stood beside Zhao Lanlan, blocking the blazing eyes with her soul, silently creating a shade for her daughter.
Su Qian stood there as long as Zhao Lanlan painted.
She didn't know if it was useful to block like this, but she kept standing without stopping.
The wind blew gently through the mountains and forests, and the leaves made a rustling sound. The sun shone down, but Zhao Lanlan didn't feel hot at all.
Because she was immersed in painting, Zhao Lanlan didn’t think much about it.
Just paint so dedicatedly.
Xu Qingling and Shasha also sat quietly aside, together with Su Qian, quietly accompanying Zhao Lanlan in painting.
Time, as if at this moment, has become slow and quiet...
Xu Qingling felt inexplicably comfortable at this moment.
