Introduction

「甥の嫁に家に戻って介護人をやってくれと頼まれて……」

「そんなバカな話があるか!」

私は思わず声を荒げた。今日は息子の家に来て、孫の世話をしているところだった。

「お母さん、どうしたの?」

息子の妻が台所から顔を出した。

「ああ、何でもないよ。ちょっと思い出し話をね」

私は苦笑いを浮かべながら答えた。それから携帯電話を取り出し、さっき届いたメッセージをもう一度見た。

「叔母さん、こんにちは。私です、李明の嫁です。実は叔母さんにお願いがあって……お義父さんの具合が良くなくて、誰かに看病してもらう必要があるんです。叔母さんは看護の経験もあるし、今は定年退職されてるでしょう?私たち夫婦は仕事が忙しくて、子供の世話もあるし……叔母さんが戻ってきて、お義父さんの面倒を見てくれたら、生活費はちゃんと出すから……」

この「生活費」という言葉を見て、私は思わず冷ややかに鼻を鳴らした。

季家の老屋敷は私の実家だ。父が亡くなった後、弟がそこに住み続けた。弟の息子・李明が成長して結婚した後、その嫁がやってきて、何かと理由をつけては私たち姉妹を遠ざけた。

特に私は十年前に夫を亡くし、その後息子の家に引っ越した。あの家にはもう足を踏み入れていない。

「お前たちが老屋敷を乗っ取った時は、私を追い出すようにせかせかとしてたくせに、今になって私を呼び戻して、ただの介護人にしようってか?」

私は冷笑を浮かべた。

「お母さん、本当に大丈夫?」

息子の妻がまた声をかけてきた。

「ああ、何でもないよ。ちょっと腹が立つことがあってね」

「何かあったの?」

「実家のことだよ。弟の息子の嫁から連絡があってね。お父さんの具合が悪くなったから、私に戻ってきて看病してくれって」

「え?それって……」

息子の妻は明らかに驚いていた。私たち家族は皆、あの家の事情を知っている。

「そうだよ。あの時は私たち姉妹に『老人は若い夫婦の生活に干渉すべきじゃない』と言って、私たちを追い出したくせに。今になって父の具合が悪くなったら、私を呼び戻して介護人にしようって言うんだから」

「それって、あんまりじゃない?」

「そうなのよ」

私は携帯電話を置いた。

「返事はどうするの?」

「返事なんてしないわ」

私はそう言いながらも、心の中では複雑な思いが渦巻いていた。弟は何も悪くない。彼の息子も、ただ妻に言われるがままなだけだ。本当に悪いのは、あの欲深い嫁だけ。

しかし、弟の具合が悪いというのは本当だろうか?もし本当なら……

「お母さん、やっぱり一度様子を見に行った方がいいんじゃない?」

息子の妻が優しく言った。

「そうね……」

私はため息をついた。「明日、ちょっと行ってみるわ」

Chapter 1

徐さんの甥は思いがけず下半身不随になり、彼の嫁は三十二歳という若さで、実質的に後家暮らしを強いられていた。

甥の嫁、宋玲玲は県立高校の国語教師で、清楚な顔立ちながら、その体つきは実に官能的だった。

普段からチャイナドレスを好んで着ており、歩く姿は丸みを帯びたお尻が左右に揺れ、まるで人の魂を奪い去るかのようだった。

ただ最近は、かなり憔悴している様子が見て取れた。それも当然だろう。昼間は仕事に出て、夜は家に帰れば寝たきりの夫の世話をしなければならないのだから。

徐さんは見かねて、自ら甥の家に住み込み、介護人として面倒を見ることを申し出た。

若い夫婦は即座に同意し、徐さんに大いに感謝して、毎月三千元を生活費として渡してくれた。

ここまではすべて完璧だったのだが、ある日の出来事が、徐さんの心に変化をもたらすことになる。

「王勇、汚れた服は全部洗濯に出したから、今日はこれを着て……」

寝室のドアを開けると、徐さんは目の前の光景に唖然とした。

甥の嫁、宋玲玲が甥の両脚の間に跪き、その細くしなやかな手で彼の腰を支え、小さな頭を下に埋めていたのだ。

徐さんの声を聞いて、彼女は慌てて顔を上げた。艶やかな唇には濡れた跡が残っていた。

彼女が何をしていたかは明らかだった。

しかし、宋玲玲がこれほど頑張っていても、甥の「小さな毛虫」はまったく反応を示さず、美女の情けを無駄にしていた。

徐さんは思わず、もし甥の代わりに自分だったら……と想像してしまった。

宋玲玲のような美女に奉仕されるなんて、どれほど素晴らしい感覚だろうか。

徐さんは思わず身震いした。

我に返った時には、宋玲玲はすでにベッドから立ち上がり、胸元の服装が乱れ、大きく露わになった雪のように白く柔らかな肌が見えていた。

その刺激に呼吸が乱れ、急いで視線をそらした。甥に気づかれないよう、この老いた顔に恥をかかせないためだ。

「玲玲、先に出ていいよ。李叔父さんに着替えを手伝ってもらうから」

そのとき甥の王勇が一息つき、少し落胆した様子で言った。

「うん、わかった。じゃあ、あなた、ゆっくり休んでね」

宋玲玲も動揺している様子で、言葉も少し乱れていた。急いで返事をすると、ドアへと向かった。

徐さんはそのとき初めて気づいた。彼女の服の後ろ側の色が濃くなっており、湿ったままお尻にぴったりと張り付いて、あのわずかな溝さえ隠せていなかった。

三十路の女は狼のように飢えているというが、まさにその通りだ。宋玲玲は不自由な体の甥に対してさえ、これほど濡れるのだから。

もし本当に彼女の中で思いのままに駆け巡ることができたら……

徐さんは思わずまた下品な想像をしてしまった。

そのとき、宋玲玲が振り返って一瞥したことに気づいた。彼女は徐さんを、いや、もっと正確には彼の男性の逞しさを見ていたのだ。

抑えていた欲望がその瞬間、静かに頭をもたげた。部屋のドアが閉まると、徐さんは大きくため息をついた。

そこで初めて甥の着替えを手伝うことを思い出し、ベッドの側に行って甥の体を裏返し、手慣れた動きで慎重に作業を始めた。

だが宋玲玲のあの魅惑的な姿、胸元の白さ、そして彼女が去る前の熱い視線が、徐さんの頭から離れず、時折浮かんでは心を乱すのだった。

「叔父さん、ズボン逆だよ」

「ああ、老眼で見えんかった。すぐにやり直すよ」

Hucow: Naughty Nectar Farms

Hucow: Naughty Nectar Farms

Ongoing · Harley Steele
From the dark imagination of Harley Steele, a chilling story unfolds—a frightful tale of twisted horrors.

Hey, my name's Alice, and my boyfriend's name is... Yeah, no, we're not doing that song and dance. Naw. Once upon a time, I was just another girl hoping for a simple life after high school. Now, I'm ensnared in the grotesque reality of Naughty Nectar Farms (NNF), not a farm but a prison where shadows don’t just whisper—they scream with the horrors of the night.

My stepfather, blinded by greed, sold my freedom and my innocence to this nightmare. Here, I am nothing more than livestock, subjected to the twisted whims of those who see women as commodities to be bred, milked, and broken. But while they may have trapped my body, they can't imprison my will.

Each day, I hear the hushed, sinister talks of breeding and milking disguised as agricultural innovation. I see the cruel fate of my fellow captives, poked, prodded, and dehumanized. Yet in this lab of horrors, where humanity is stripped away, I hold onto one truth—they think I am weak, demure, broken. They are mistaken.

I am guilty of many things, but submission is not one of them. Here in the depths of despair, my fury simmers. I am plotting, waiting. For though they have taken much, my resolve grows with each passing day. I will lead us out of this darkness, or die trying. This is no ordinary farm, and I am no ordinary woman.
