With a Door In Mind

Huizhou

Anshi

There were four people sitting on the dining table happily eating, and a four-year-old child was sitting on the sofa next to him, watching TV while eating.

"Xiao Chuan, you're not too young. It's time to get married, right? Your second aunt told you to introduce someone to you and let you have a look this week."

A middle-aged woman glanced at her eldest son and daughter-in-law, and then said to another younger son who was sitting next to him eating quietly.

"Mom, I don't know how long I can live... just don't hurt others."

Hearing the words, Jiang Xiaochuan replied without raising his head.

Mother heard this with anger in her eyes, "What nonsense are you talking about? Haven't your illness been cured?"

"Mom, I've already said that I'm not sick, you have to believe it. Forget it, you can eat, I'm full..." Jiang Xiaochuan slowly put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand and said lightly.

"You..." Looking at Jiang Xiaochuan who was walking towards his room, his mother was angry.

"Mom, it's alright, don't rush him, don't rush him, let him get sick again..." The elder brother saw his mother getting angry and the impatient daughter-in-law next to him, so he quickly persuaded him.

Hearing this, my mother choked for a moment and said no more.

After eating hastily...they went back to their respective houses.

Li Mingyue, who returned to the room, glanced at her husband, and then said slowly, "Minghai, why don't you ask Mom to come out with some money, pay Xiaochuan a down payment, and let him move out?"

Jiang Minghai, who was sitting next to him and looked at his phone, paused for a while when he heard this. Then he continued to play with the phone in his hand without speaking.

Seeing that the husband beside him didn't speak, Li Mingyue frowned. Then he said, "Minghai, this is not the way to go. My relatives and friends say that my brother-in-law is crazy, and they don't want to interact with me."

When Jiang Minghai heard his wife's words, he said displeasedly, "Mingyue, I said, my brother is not crazy. Have you ever seen such a normal neurosis?"

"A normal person would say that he won't live long? A normal person would say that there is a door in his mind, and a normal person would say that he has a countdown in his mind?"

Li Mingyue sneered at him.

"I..." Jiang Minghai, who was originally righteous, was speechless when he heard this. I can only explain, "Hasn't he done anything out of the ordinary?"

"Yeah, it's not out of line, but don't you feel depressed when it happens every now and then?"

Jiang Minghai "..."

After a while, he said slowly, "Dad died early, and the family has no money."

Hearing this, Li Mingyue stopped talking.

Indeed, my father-in-law had lung cancer a few years ago, which made the family that was not very wealthy even more difficult.

If the house was not bought before the father-in-law died, the three-bedroom house may not be affordable now.

The mother who was coaxing her grandson on the other side was also absent-minded.

Her son is already twenty-eight... She's not married yet, and she doesn't have a house. How can she not be in a hurry.

Jiang Xiaochuan was lying on the bed, his ears "listening" to the words of his elder brother and sister-in-law, and "seeing" his mother's sad face in his mind. Pain flashed in his eyes.

Feeling the countdown in his mind, Jiang Xiaochuan was already very dull.

4:21:29. Only four hours left.

Indeed, anyone who has watched this for twenty years will become very calm.

But as time passed slowly, he gradually developed a feeling of fear.

But Jiang Xiaochuan didn't tell his mother and his brother that he could "see" and hear conversations and scenes within a radius of ten meters.

I don't want to frighten them anymore.

Suppressing the fear and irritability in his heart, he rolled over and sat up.

"No matter what happens tomorrow, there should be something for Mom and them,

Even if he is gone, let them have no worries about food and clothing. "

After thinking about it, I can't help my eldest brother find an iron job at work.

There is nothing left for them except money.

Over the years, he has also helped a certain department solve several cases through his own abilities. A total of 600,000 rewards were obtained. This money cannot make the eldest brother rich, at least it can ease the pressure on the family.

Then he sat on his desk and picked up a pen and paper.

Thinking about the bits and pieces over the years, I began to write it down on paper, including my bank card and password, all written in the letter.

Two hours passed, and the three letters were full of writing. Jiang Xiaochuan put the letter on the table.

Then I thought about it and pressed it with a book. If nothing happened after the night, the letter would be useless.

After it was done, Jiang Xiaochuan felt sad when he walked out of the room and looked at his mother whose hair was already gray.

When I was eight years old, I found the door in my mind and the countdown began. I had been in a daze all these years, and the death of my father five years ago had brought a heavy blow to my mother.

"Mom, let's do it. Talk to your second aunt tomorrow. I'll go see that girl this Sunday. That's all it takes."

Jiang Xiaochuan smiled and comforted his mother.

Hearing his words, the mother, who had been dead, was instantly surprised.

He said happily, "Really? Don't force it? Otherwise, your second aunt will be embarrassed."

"Oh, Mom, you see I promised you, but you still don't believe me? Have you seen me lie to you all these years?"

"Yes, yes... My good son has never lied to his mother..."

"Then I'll call your second aunt now to let her know." When the mother heard his assurance, she muttered to make a call.

Jiang Xiaochuan hurriedly stopped, "Mom, you are not allowed to fight today, let's fight tomorrow, anyway, it's still four days before Sunday, it's still early."

"Besides, what time is it? It's almost eleven o'clock. Second aunt is going to bed too."

When my mother heard this, she felt that she was too anxious, but she couldn't help it. Can you be in a hurry? My child has pushed countless blind dates over the years because of mental problems.

It was the rare first time that he took the initiative to go on a blind date, and she would definitely seize the opportunity.

Seeing that my mother was sure not to call, I felt relieved.

Then the mother and son started chatting together. Time passed in an hour.

After the chat was over, the mother went to bed with her grandson who was already asleep.

After taking a shower, he returned to his room. Jiang Xiaochuan locked the door and lay on the bed.

Lying on the bed, watching the countdown, tears flowed silently down my cheeks.

Thinking about my lack of communication with my parents before. I really regret it.

Time stood still at the last moment.

Suddenly the door in my mind opened, revealing a dazzling white light.

He tried hard to see the situation behind the door, but he couldn't see clearly, and even his usual ability to try and be unsatisfactory didn't work.

Suddenly Jiang Xiaochuan felt lighter.

To be precise, his body was pulled towards the door.

At this moment, he had been depressed all the time, and suddenly he felt relieved.

Drowsiness came through my mind. Jiang Xiaochuan felt that maybe he would never wake up again.

...maybe really relieved.
