  Chapter 376 New Year's Day Dessert (12)

  On New Year's Eve, the first day of the annual holiday, Wen Mingtang finally saw the glutinous rice **** that he hadn't seen for several days.

In just a few days, Tangyuan's face became much thinner with the naked eye, and the eyes that were so energetic in the past seemed to have lost their vitality and dimmed. mouth, trying to force a smile out, but when the mouth opened, before the smile could be squeezed out, the tears in the eyes fell down one step at a time.

  It is extremely difficult to force myself to laugh when I want to cry.

  Wen Mingtang sighed, walked over and hugged Tangyuan, watched Tangyuan buried her head in her arms and sobbed softly, reached out and patted Tangyuan's back to comfort Tangyuan.

   Crying all the time, it released a lot of the emotions that had been suppressed and accumulated in the bottom of my heart for the past few days.

   After crying enough, Tangyuan sobbed: "Master Wen, I..."

   "I can save it." Wen Mingtang patted Tangyuan on the back, took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears on his face for Tangyuan, and said, "I will always be here with you during these days."

  As if a person floating in the water suddenly caught a driftwood, Tang Yuan's heart relaxed, and while obediently asked Wen Mingtang to wipe her face, she led Wen Mingtang to kowtow in front of the futon.

"A Bing has been with me for a few days, and was called away by his family last night." Tang Yuan went to the futon and knelt down, kowtowed at Lao Yuan's coffin, got up and said to Wen Mingtang, "I know Yes, he stays here every day, and although his family doesn't say anything, they are not very happy."

  After Lao Yuan left, Tangyuan grew up a lot overnight, and she also learned to read people and the world.

  Wen Mingtang followed the glutinous rice **** and kowtowed, then got up, raised his eyes, and saw Lao Yuan lying in the coffin as if he had suddenly fallen asleep.

  Wen Mingtang's head thumped suddenly when he saw this scene, and the scene of "myself" lying in the coffin in the dream suddenly appeared before his eyes.

  The girl strangled "her" with the white silk, and Wen Mingtang felt her throat tighten suddenly, as if an invisible hand suddenly raised her throat and strangled her, making her unable to breathe.

  She wanted to gasp for breath, she kicked and struggled like a dying person's instinct to survive, desperately grabbing the white silk that was strangling her throat with her hands and feet and struggling hard.

  The process of struggling was extremely long, and I don't know how long I kicked hard, and finally tore off the corner of the white silk that was strangling her throat. She opened her mouth wide and tried to squeeze out a voice from her throat: "Help..."

   The moment she exclaimed in surprise, the cold wind mixed with snow flakes poured down on her from all directions. As the cold wind and snow flakes poured in, the world began to shake violently. All the scenes and people in front of me, the overwhelming paper money and charcoal basins, the girl who was strangling her with white silk, and the white silk strangling her throat began to shake. Quickly shattered and collapsed.

There seemed to be countless lights coming here from outside the mourning hall, and the scenes in my mind flashed like a flying horse, the white silk that was strangling her throat shattered, and someone surrounded her behind her, and grabbed her waist. With both hands, pull her hands away from his body. Wen Mingtang's thoughts seemed to be pulled back a little from the soul tour, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Tang Yuan, A Bing, Liu Yuan, and Bai Zhu standing not far away, looking at him in astonishment.

   An eager voice came from behind him: "What are you doing in a daze? Please call the doctor!"

  The voice was very familiar. When she spoke, the heat she exhaled spread to her body, and the "cold snow flakes" that froze her body began to melt due to the warmth.

  The body seemed to be able to move. Wen Mingtang turned around, wanting to see the person holding him behind him, but at this moment, a deep sense of tiredness came over him.

   Her eyes darkened and she fell down.

  Although Wen Mingtang fell suddenly, but for Lin Fei who was clasping her hand behind him, catching the girl was just a snap.

Looking at the people who were still in a daze, Lin Fei supported the girl and shouted, "What are you still doing? Take my badge and invite Doctor Zhou here." The falling line of the card was thrown towards Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu.

   This shout was stern, and finally woke up everyone who was still in a daze.

  Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu didn't have time to kowtow to Old Yuan in front of the futon, and after receiving the waist card thrown by Lin Fei, they turned around and walked out of Yuan's house quickly.

  After a while of panic and placing the girl in Tangyuan's room, everyone left the Tangyuan's room.

   It wasn't until they left the courtyard that everyone talked about what happened just now.

   "What's going on?" Until now, everyone still had lingering fears when they thought of the scene they had just seen.

  Although today is New Year's Eve, it is the first day of the New Year's holiday for them, so they came here together.

  Unexpectedly, when they reached the door of Yuan's house, they heard a scream from inside.

   This scream sounded familiar, it was from glutinous rice balls.

They were startled, and quickly walked inside, but what they saw was that Master Wen, who had always been prudent in the past, was standing in front of Lao Yuan's coffin with a dazed expression, holding his throat with both hands and strangling himself desperately. Standing a few steps away was Tang Yuan who was stupefied by the scene.

   Thinking that she was frightened by Master Wen's actions, Tang Yuan let out a scream.

Although the son said nothing strange, the cases of "pretending to be ghosts" they uncovered were finally found to be all done by people, but Master Wen's act of standing in the mourning hall and choking his own throat, at first glance, really shocked them. Startled.

  For a while, I just looked at Master Wen in astonishment, no one moved, and Lin Shaoqing, who was walking at the end, came in. Seeing this, he immediately stepped forward and grabbed Master Wen who was choking his neck.

   "It seems to be haunted by a nightmare." An officer came back to his senses and couldn't help muttering, "Master Wen was the most stable person in the past, and he really will..."

  Before he finished speaking, Tang Yuan, who had already reacted at this time, immediately interrupted him: "No way! How could my father harm Master Wen? No way!"

  Looking at the agitated glutinous rice balls, A Bing, who followed the crowd, immediately followed up and said, "Yes, old Yuan Suri also likes Master Wen very much, how could he harm Master Wen?"

   "Then... Maybe you ate or accidentally touched something that has hallucinogenic effects?" An officer answered, rubbed his chin, and said, "I'll find out when the doctor comes."

Even so, thinking of Wen Mingtang's reaction and behavior just now, I am still a little startled: Fortunately, he went crazy, and Master Wen also looks quite "gentle". up.

   "I don't know what's going on," murmured Tang Yuan, who was comforted by A Bing, "Master Wen was still talking to me just a moment ago, after he got up from my father, he..."

  The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested. An officer gasped when he heard the words, and blurted out: "After paying homage to Lao Yuan, got up, is Master Wen like this?"

  As soon as these words came out, Tang Yuan and A Bing's expressions suddenly changed.

   Before he could say anything, he heard Lin Fei who came over say, "Don't talk nonsense! It must be something that I ate by mistake, and the doctor will know when he arrives!"
