My Marriage to a Mute Girl
Chapter 42 The Woman in the Photo
The so-called 'Buddha statue' was not a Buddha statue at all, but rather a wood plaque carved with the date of birth, with four corners chained with red lacquer sprayed on it and firmly fastened to its base.
The picture frame to the right of the plaque was covered with a bright yellow piece of talisman paper with messy characters drawn on it.
Lexie's feet felt like they were filled with lead, and her eyes were staring at the talisman paper, as if she wanted to see through the picture frame behind it.
Alan could see that something was wrong with her, "What's wrong with you?"
As if she hadn't heard him, Lexie reached out her hand towards the piece of talisman paper.
"What are you doing?" Alan pulled her back with one hand.
The things here could not be touched, or Peter must know that people came when he came back, if this time he could not get the prescription, the next time it will be more difficult.
Lexie's face was white, and she remained staring at the piece of talisman paper like a demon.
What the hell?
Alan frowned, "Don't you move."
Never believing in superstition, he reached out and uncovered the piece of talisman paper directly, revealing the picture frame behind it.
In the frame was a black and white photograph, taken in a studio, in the style of the last century.
The woman was wearing a cheongsam, her young face with a warm smile inexplicably made Alan feel somewhat familiar, as if he had seen this woman before somewhere.
A sudden choked voice came from behind him.
Alan was stunned, and when he turned around, he saw a tear-streaked face.
Lexie's gripped the bookcase with a deadly grip, her eyes were red, and despite her best efforts to hold back but still unable to suppress her great mourning, she choked out a hoarse voice.
Looking at Lexie's face, Alan suddenly understood something.
