Extra 2 - "Alchemy"
Zhang Xuehua hadn't rested for a long time, and that night, she woke up from a chaotic dream again and rubbed her forehead in pain. In the www.biquge.info dream, those who despised themselves now turned over and trampled her under their feet, which was extremely miserable.
Under the warm orange night light next to the bed, she described it as haggard and very vicissitudes. With his eyes open, he leaned back on the pillow and sat at the head of the bed in a daze until it was almost dawn.
This situation has been going on for a long time, and she knows that it is caused by her nervous tension and weakness.
At six o'clock, before the sky was completely bright, Ning Zongjin woke up from his sleep on time. He tilted his head slightly to the right, and sure enough, his wife sat at the head of the bed in a daze again, and it seemed that she was probably sleepless all night.
He let out a long breath and rubbed the corners of his forehead in pain, but he couldn't solve it.
Zhang Xuehua refused to tell him why he was tossing and turning like this, he also had his own thoughts, and it was difficult to communicate with his wife, who was under great pressure at this time. Therefore, both of them have aged almost ten years since this time.
On the contrary, Ning Rui, who is about to face the college entrance examination, is on the line at three o'clock at this time, although the days are tense and busy, they are also extraordinarily fulfilling.
However, seeing that it has been another year, and they are not young anymore, they can no longer survive so casually.
Silently leaning on the head of the bed and smoking a cigarette, Ning Zongjin spoke, "Xuehua, what's going on?"
He sighed: "We are all old, we can't stay up anymore, and our energy is not as good as before." If something happens to you at this time, Ning Rui is about to take the college entrance examination and delay his studies, how can it be good?"
In fact, in a family like theirs, grades don't determine everything, if you do well in the exam, your resume is glorious, and you will be looked down upon by others when you say it, and the starting point is a little higher. If you don't do well in the exam, it doesn't mean that you won't have achievements, and you can still get into the university you want to go to.
When he said this, it was just to let Zhang Xuehua relax her heart and reveal her thoughts.
As a mother, regardless of whether the family is powerful or not, she hopes that her children can be more competitive. And she has been in a very bad state recently, and she really can't hold it back.
Therefore, these fuse-like words instantly made her can't help but open her mouth.
"Lao Ning, you said that I have lived for half my life, when I was young, the country broke feudal superstitions and preached scientific development...... Those policies and all that stuff have been with me all my life. Why is it that the world has changed so much before my eyes!"
Ning Zongjin sat up, these years have been smooth, and it was rare for him to see Zhang Xuehua so distressed, so he unexpectedly laughed.
He laughed sullenly, his not very broad chest shook twice, and he was still in the mood to joke: "Just you? Do you still break feudal superstitions? ”
The old husband and wife are old, it is rare that she is willing to confide in her, and Ning Zongjin is also happy.
"I remember who was in my ear some time ago, who was talking every day about going to incense with whom, who was going to worship Buddha with whom, and begging Ning Rui to do a better job in the exam... And this is to break the feudal superstition?!"
When Zhang Xuehua heard this, she glanced at him angrily: "What do you know? That's an excuse to go out and give yourself a spiritual sustenance by the way." But now it's different!"
She said, and sighed heavily.
Ning Zongjin put away his smile and didn't say anything more. has been married for many years, and he knows that Zhang Xuehua must have something to talk about next.
Sure enough, Zhang Xuehua hesitated to speak after a while.
"Do you remember the tutor we found for Ning Rui last summer?"
Ning Zongjin let out a conciliatory syllable from his nose.
During that time, because of Ning Rui's strange situation, their family could be regarded as chickens and dogs, how could they easily forget it?
Later, thanks to the tutor girl, he was soothed. Although she instilled some strange thoughts in Ning Rui inexplicably, they didn't say anything more in school because they thought about this merit.
Thinking of what He Qing said to Ning Rui at that time, he couldn't help but be a little irritable-today's children don't know what to think every day, and if they don't take the bright road, they will make some mess.
Zhang Xuehua remembered the past, and couldn't help but be in a trance: "At that time, Ning Rui said that someone wanted to kill him, and what kind of golden stone puppetry or something, I thought that if this kid didn't learn well, he must have secretly read online novels or played games and went crazy, and that tutor girl didn't know how to deceive him!"
"If it weren't for Xiao Rui's intense emotions at that time, maybe I would have been ready to say hello and make that girl unable to stay at school. ”
Ning Zongjin nodded: "What's the matter? Suddenly remembered her again? Could it be that she came to the door again?"
Zhang Xuehua looked uncertain, and did not answer his words directly, but with a little sigh: "Originally, I was also iron-mouthed, and I always refused to believe it. But at the end of last year, one day when you were not at home, Gu Rongan, the gentleman boy of the Gu family, carried Zhang Ning on his back. ”
"The Gu family?"
Ning Zongjin frowned: "I remember that there is a Gu Ping in their family, and now he is in the public security organ, and he is promoted quickly, and he is not a simple person." ”
Zhang Xuehua was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes, it's Gu Ping's cousin, the one who has not yet become a weapon...... You forgot, I also came to play with Zhang Ning during the Chinese New Year. ”
Talking and digressing again, Zhang Xuehua remembered, and hurriedly continued: "I didn't like that kid before, and I didn't speak very politely at that time......
She said it implicitly.
Before, she didn't just look down on her, she simply despised it. But in fact, she said that the Ning family, the Zhang family, and the Gu family are about the same, but in fact, the two families together can be worth it. At that time, she didn't know where she got the courage to be so unkind to the little son of the Gu family.
During this time, she couldn't sleep well, and she was afraid that Gu Rongan would poke this matter out and affect the cooperation between the two families.
“…… You don't know, at that time, Zhang Ning's face was red and yellow, as if it was rotten, and there were two fangs in his mouth! It was long and sharp, and the whole person couldn't move, and it was as stiff as a piece of wood. ”
When Ning Zongjin heard this, he couldn't help but sit up straight and stared at Zhang Xuehua tightly.
Zhang Xuehua didn't notice it, she was immersed in her memory, and muttered: "Gu Rongan didn't say what kind of zombie Zhang Ning had become at that time, I didn't believe it, I thought they were not clean in private, what kind of medicine did they touch!"
"When I came to the doctor, I couldn't find out why. At this time, our Xiaorui invited his tutor over. ”
When she said this, she couldn't help but tremble. From secretly looking down on him at the beginning, to now using the word "please", only Zhang Xuehua can understand the subtle feeling in his heart.
"You don't know! It turns out that there are really some things in this world that science can't explain. ”
She turned her head and looked at her husband, her eyes shining brightly.
"--Right in front of my eyes, in our living room, I saw that girl with my own eyes, using a spell to restore Zhang Ning to her previous appearance. ”
