Chapter 485 I'm Waiting for You

Shen Sangning took a small stool and sat side by side with the old lady in the mourning shed as if they were chatting with each other.

Shen Sangning gently patted the aunt's hand and said, "Auntie, tell me about your past with Uncle Yang."

The old lady's eyes became distant, as if she was lost in deep memories, "Old Yang and I met when we were 15 years old."

"At that time, I was weak and sickly, and skinny as a stick. I couldn't do any work that required a little bit of strength."

"At that time, my family was poor and we couldn't afford to go to the hospital. I just wanted to live one more day!"

"Later, my second aunt was infected with evil spirits, so I invited a fortune teller to come and take a look."

"The disciple led by the Yin-Yang Master at that time was our Lao Yang. That was also the first time I met him..."

"When Old Yang was young, he looked very energetic and fair-skinned. He is nothing like now, with a bent waist and white hair." As she spoke, a faint smile emerged on the old lady's face, and that smile hid the tenderness of time.

"In order to completely cure my second aunt's illness, the master and his apprentice stayed here."

"My second eldest aunt's family had no place to stay, so I asked them to live in my house."

"Old Yang was very shy at that time. He even blushed when he saw me. He was even more shy than a little girl like me..."

"I remember that the master and his apprentice stayed at my house for three days. Before leaving, his master told my parents that the two children were destined to be together."

"His master also said that I have a body of great yin and I get sick every now and then. He also said that I won't live past 26..."

"Because he cured Second Aunt's illness, my family believed what his master said and begged him to save me."

"Later, his master said that Old Yang just happened to have a lot of yang energy. If the two children get married, my illness will naturally be cured."

"That's how it was. Lao Yang and I got married after only meeting a few times."

"When we first got married, we lived in a small, shabby house that leaked when it rained."

"But Old Yang always comforted me, saying that once he and the master learned more skills, things would get better slowly." There was a gleam in the old lady's eyes, as if she saw the good old days.

Shen Sangning listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

The old lady continued, "We had a child in the second year of our marriage. That year, Lao Yang's master passed away..."

"Old Yang took over his master's mantle and took care of things on his own."

"Our eldest son was a very well-behaved child. But unfortunately, he accidentally fell into the river when he was six years old and died just like that." The old lady tried her best to keep her voice calm. "At that time, Lao Yang and I felt like the sky had fallen."

"At that time, Lao Yang and I had a big fight and almost got divorced..."

"I know that there are five disadvantages and three shortcomings in his line of work."

"Take his master for example, he was a widower all his life. When he was old, an eagle pecked out one of his eyes!"

"I didn't want him to continue doing this business. I thought at the time that we have hands and feet, and we can make money by doing anything."

"As long as the family is safe and healthy, it is better than anything else."

"But what I didn't know was that they once had a master and a legacy. When accepting a disciple, they had to swear an oath..."

"I want to retreat, but I can't. Otherwise, I will be punished even more severely..."

"Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. I can only accept my fate, but it makes my children suffer..."

Shen Sangning held the old lady's hand and gave her some strength.

The old lady took a deep breath and continued, "Later, we had a youngest son, and we took good care of him. But who could have imagined that when he was ten years old, he had a high fever that damaged his brain and paralyzed his lower body. In those years, Old Yang worked very hard to get the child's medical treatment." The old lady wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the corner of her clothes.

"The child was sensible and never cried or made a fuss. Even when he was not feeling well, he would grit his teeth and endure it. Alas, he passed away in the end." The old lady's voice was filled with helplessness and sadness.

Shen Sangning said softly, "Auntie, it's really not easy for you and Uncle Yang."

The old lady sighed and said, "Yes, but life must go on."

"After losing my two children, I completely gave up."

"Old Yang always said that we have to look forward. Unexpectedly, he left first."

Shen Sangning comforted her, "Auntie, Uncle Yang is a good man. He will be fine over there."

The old lady nodded and said, "I know that he has never done anything wrong in his life. He is loyal to his friends and kind to his neighbors." As she spoke, she glanced at Xu Ziyang who was kneeling and burning paper.

"I hope this child can really understand the situation and not make mistakes again."

At this time, Liu Limei came over and handed the aunt and Shen Sangning a glass of water, "Auntie, drink some water, don't be too tired."

The old lady took the cup of water and took a sip, "Limei, thank you for your hard work."

Liu Limei quickly said, "Aunt, what are you talking about? We are the ones who let you and Uncle Yang down."

Shen Sangning looked at the old lady and asked, "Auntie, have you and Uncle Yang been living alone all these years?"

The old lady nodded and said, "Yes, the children are gone, and we are the only ones left. But we are used to it. We have each other's company, so we don't feel lonely."

"I just didn't expect that Old Yang would leave so suddenly." The old lady's eyes dimmed again.

Shen Sangning said, "Auntie, please take care of yourself. Uncle Yang's spirit in heaven also hopes that you will be well."

The old lady raised her head slightly and looked at the sky. "Well, I will live well and not let Old Yang worry."

Shen Sangning and Liu Limei sat with the old lady for a while.

A cold wind suddenly blew through the mourning shed.

The old lady seemed to have guessed something, and said to Shen Sangning gratefully: "You are a kind-hearted girl... Thank you for your help..."

Shen Sangning smiled indifferently, "Auntie, it's no trouble, it's just a small matter."

After the cold wind blew past, the temperature around the mourning shed seemed to drop suddenly, and faint eerie whimpering sounds could be heard.

Shen Sangning's expression froze. She knew that these were the enemies and ghosts that Uncle Yang had offended in the past, taking the opportunity to come and cause trouble.

Anyone who works as a fortune teller will encounter this disaster.

Shen Sangning stood up and formed seals with her hands. In an instant, a ray of light shot out from her hands, illuminating the surroundings of the mourning shed.

I saw a group of black shadows appearing under the light, some with hideous faces, some with twisted bodies, they pounced towards the mourning shed with their fangs and claws.

Shen Sangning said calmly, "I'll give you one minute. Go back to where you came from."

The shadows ignored him and continued to rush over frantically. Shen Sangning's eyes became fierce, and the light in his hands became brighter, turning into a series of spells flying towards the shadows. All the shadows hit by the spells howled in pain, and then gradually dissipated.

But there were so many black shadows, coming in waves. A powerful aura suddenly burst out from Shen Sangning's body, preventing the black shadows from moving any further!

The shadows realized that they could not succeed and retreated.

The mourning shed returned to its peaceful state. Shen Sangning breathed a sigh of relief and turned to the old lady and said, "Auntie, everything is fine now. Uncle Yang can rest assured now."

The old lady's eyes were full of gratitude: "Little girl, I thank you on behalf of Lao Yang... You are a good person, and good people will be rewarded."

Shen Sangning smiled and shook her head: "Uncle Yang is a good man and shouldn't be disturbed by these evil spirits."

At this time, Xu Ziyang, who was kneeling and burning paper, was also frightened by the noise just now. He looked at Shen Sangning with awe in his heart.

Shen Sangning looked at Xu Ziyang and said, "Remember, do more good deeds in the future and don't cause trouble again. Otherwise, even if I can save you once, I can't save you a second time."

Xu Ziyang nodded repeatedly: "I understand, Master Shen..."
