Chapter 189 Finally seen
Song Anning was a little incoherent at this time, and excitedly said to Xiangxiang: "I can see my parents, right? I can really see them?
Why is there nothing on the big screen?"
She sat nervously in front of the screen, afraid to miss even a tiny bit of footage of her parents, but Xiang Xiang said:
"Master, don't worry. The small wooden box is on your coffee table. No one is home now."
"No one? Is the time here different from over there?"
Logically speaking, her mother should be at home cooking at this time, and her father should be in the yard to pen the chickens and ducks, and then go to the pigpen to feed the pigs. Why isn't he at home?
She felt an indescribable worry in her heart, fearing that something had happened to her parents.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, Xiangxiang said excitedly: "Master, look, it seems that someone has returned."
Song Anning felt cold sweat on his palms. He swallowed nervously, his eyes almost drilling into the system screen.
Then, the mother's figure finally appeared on the screen. She dragged her tired body into the house. She must have worked outside all day. The moment she took off her hat, a few strands of hair were wet with sweat and stuck to her face.
Song Anning's heart broke when she saw this scene. Where had her mother gone? At this time of year, the seedlings had almost been sold, and there was not much work to do at home. How could this happen?
After my mother came into the room, she did nothing but sat alone on the sofa, staring blankly at Song Anning's portrait not far away.
"Yanzi, I told you not to weed the ginseng field. You only make 120 yuan a day, and our family doesn't need that. Why are you doing this?"
At this time, Song Anning's father, Song Chengbo, also entered the room. He was already a little thin, and now he looked much older. His previously straight back was now a little hunched.
Mother Liu Yan's red and swollen eyes rolled around, and her voice trembled a little:
"I have to have something to do. Whenever I have free time, I think about Aning. This is not going to work."
"..."
The couple sighed together and sat on the sofa with empty eyes, giving people the feeling that they were still there, but their souls were gone.
On this side, Song Anning covered her face with her hands and cried like a little kitten. Seeing her parents' current appearance, she felt like a blunt knife was slowly cutting her heart.
Seeing his wife crying again, Song Chengbo wanted to take a tissue from the coffee table, but when he looked down, he found a small square wooden box lying quietly on the coffee table, with a symbol belonging to his daughter engraved on it.
He thought his wife took out the box because she missed the child, but when he picked up the box, he found that the symbols on it were newly engraved and there was not a speck of dust in the patterns.
"What is this? Did you take it out? It belongs to Aning, right?"
He picked up the box and shook it in front of Liu Yan, then weighed the box. It looked small and delicate, but it was quite heavy. He didn't know what was inside.
"This isn't Aning's thing. I've never seen it before."
Liu Yan glanced at the small wooden box and decisively rejected Song Chengbo's idea. When she saw the symbol on the box, she was stunned and instinctively wanted to raise her hand to slap.
"You naughty kid, you're already in your twenties, and you're still marking things randomly. This is like a puppy peeing. Look at our house, wherever there's wood, there's this stuff."
She said this subconsciously, and only realized after she finished speaking that something was wrong. Her child was no longer there. What was going on?
"..."
The couple looked at each other, both feeling that something was amiss. The box hadn't been brought by them, but had appeared out of thin air? And it even had Song Anning's unique markings on it?
Song Chengbo quickly put the box in Liu Yan's hand and said nervously:
"Open it and take a look. Maybe it's Aning's old stuff."
Liu Yan didn't say anything, and her hands didn't move. She held the box in her hands and gently stroked the mark on it.
"Dad, Mom, open it quickly, you will know everything once you open it.
Hurry up! "
Song An Ning was extremely anxious here. It was dinner time now. Many people had gathered in the lobby downstairs and at street stalls, discussing the strange phenomenon that occurred in Ping'an Town last night.
But she had no intention of listening to all this. Fifteen minutes had passed and her parents still hadn't opened the box. She was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Master, look, mom has opened the box."
On the screen, Liu Yan had already opened the box, and what came into view were small gold nuggets of the same size, filling the entire box.
"Oh, this is gold? It's all in the box!"
"How can we have something like this at home? Did someone leave it here?"
The couple's expressions became much more serious. There were too many scammers these days. Could it be that someone saw that his child was not at home and deliberately used this to deceive others?
"No, there's something else in here, all poured out on the coffee table. Let's take a closer look."
As cautious as Song Chengbo was, he quickly closed the window and locked the door from the inside. When he turned and walked towards the sofa, he saw his wife holding a few pieces of letter paper, her hands shaking.
"What's going on? Let me see a picture."
Just as he was about to start, he heard Liu Yan excitedly shout, "Don't move!
This is what my daughter gave me! She’s not dead! Not dead!
"..."
Song Chengbo looked up at the black and white photo of his daughter not far away and sighed softly.
The child said she was going to take a look at the greenhouse, but she never came back. When he went to look for her, he saw his daughter lying by the side of the path, no longer breathing.
More than a month had passed since the incident, and the couple could no longer accept the outcome.
But the person is indeed dead, and he witnessed the cremation with his own eyes. His wife is in this state. Is there something wrong with her mentally?
Just as he was about to comfort her, he saw that Liu Yan had already seen the second piece of paper. She excitedly stuffed the first piece of paper into his arms and said excitedly:
"Look, this is Aning's handwriting. I taught me how to write this character, stroke by stroke. There's no mistake."
So, the couple sat on the sofa, carefully holding the letter and looking at every word on it carefully.
In the end, their tears dripped onto the letter paper, and Song Chengbo, a grown man, even cried out loud.
"It's my daughter. Only Aning knows that I liked another young wife's post on a short video!"
Liu Yan:?
Then, she insisted, "She's my daughter. I gave gifts to someone called Xiu Dacai, and it was Aning who topped up my account. This is our little secret!"
Song Chengbo:?
Song Anning originally wanted to write more to prove herself, but she didn't expect it to become a reason for the couple to quarrel.
"Okay, you're so good! You're secretly looking at other young wives and giving them likes. Go live with them... Bring them home to help you feed the pigs..."
"..."
"I just liked it, unlike you who spent money. Are you thinking I'm old and have fallen in love with someone else?"
"..."
Song Anning, on the other side, held her chin with her hands, and smiled foolishly as she heard her parents bickering. To prove that she was really Song Anning, she could only apologize, Mom and Dad...
After the couple talked for a while, they turned their attention back to the letter paper. Song An Ning wrote several thousand words, fearing that she would miss anything.
Her parents felt that three pieces of paper were too few and hoped for more details. They wanted to know whether her family in that world treated her well.
Just saying "very good" won't reassure them. How good is "very good"? Have you noticed anything unusual about her?
