I walked to the corridor to answer the phone, and my mother's voice was filled with tears: "Nian Nian, the village said that the Taoist temple your grandfather left behind will be taken back to the public. Your grandfather told you before his death that you must inherit it, otherwise the ancestors will not be peaceful. Can you... Come back?"
"... Mom, I still have something to do here."
"What can be more important than the last wish of our ancestors? Your grandfather saved half of the village back then, and now they have turned their backs and refused to admit it!" My mother became more and more excited as she spoke, "If you dare not come back, I will divorce your father!"
After hanging up the phone, I leaned against the wall and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
