“...... It's a dead man's thing, can't pick it up, hear it. ”

In the courtyard, the child still had some confusion in his eyes, and was pulled up by his mother.

In a hurry, he patted the dust that might be on the child's hand with his hand before withdrawing his hand.

“...... That mom, what's dead. ”

The child turned his head, looked at his mother, and asked, puzzledly,

“...... If you die, you won't see your mom and dad again, you'll never see your friends again, you won't be able to eat what you want to eat......"

The child's mother said to the child, and the child's eyes gradually revealed fear,

“...... Mom, then will I die, I don't want to die, can I not die......"

Frightened, the child hurriedly rubbed the paper money dust on his hand on his clothes, and asked in a panic,

“...... It's okay, you're still young, you won't die. You see my mother is still there......"

The child's mother smiled at the child, reassuring,

The child's emotions gradually calmed down, but there was still fear in his eyes.

“...... Let's go, go into the house and help Mom wash the dishes, and Mom will fry you a pot of meat at noon......"

“...... Good!"

The child's mother took the child by the hand and went into the house again, and the child was distracted and rejoiced again.

“...... Will Daddy be back at noon in a moment?"

“...... Dad, Dad won't be back until the afternoon, and he's having lunch at your Uncle Feng's house. ”

“...... Then why don't we go together......"

While he was talking, the child and the child's mother entered the house.

......

glanced at the mother and son, and listened to the words ringing in his ears with the breeze,

Lian Ge turned his gaze back and continued to walk along the village road.

After passing a few more yards, Lian Ge approached the courtyard that was haunting with the smell of paper money and ashes.

In front of the courtyard, next to the village road, there are also a few filial piety flags and filial piety flags, and next to the courtyard, there is also a piece of old yellow cloth that has not been removed, and the yellow cloth is embroidered with some scriptures and patterns.

In the courtyard, beside the few dining tables set up, there were scattered and distant relatives of the neighborhood who came to attend the funeral, but did not follow them to the funeral.

There was a cup of tea in front of them, and some melons and fructose on the table, each talking in twos and threes.

A middle-aged woman walks back and forth between the tables and stools, busy, greeting guests.

A person who seems to be presiding over the funeral is fiddling with the courtyard against the side of the village road, and seems to be arranging things related to the funeral ceremony.

An old lady in her seventies sat far away, leaning against the side of the courtyard, leaning over her body, hanging her head, silent.

“...... Mom, don't be angry, Dad, ......"

After pouring a cup of tea for the guest who had just arrived, the middle-aged woman turned around and walked to the edge of the courtyard, in front of the old lady, and said in a loud voice,

“...... Dad, he's ...... Don't be angry and break down your body, you're not in good health......"

The middle-aged woman bent down, comforted, and said to the old lady.

The old lady was still bowing her head and silent.

“...... Mom, you haven't eaten anything since this morning, you should be hungry, or I'll cook you two rice balls, and you can pad your stomach. ”

Looking at the old lady, the middle-aged woman opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she only asked out loud.

When the old lady heard this, she slowly raised her head,

The face looked a little haggard, a few were not combed well, the gray hair was stuck to the forehead, and the bottom of the eyes was a little cloudy.

Looking at the middle-aged woman, her eyes moved slightly, followed closely, and slowly turned her head and looked at the hall opposite the courtyard.

The door of the hall is open, and through the door of the hall,

In the hall is a temporary mourning hall, but it has been funeral.

The mourning hall seemed a little empty, only a door panel that was not covered with a quilt remained, and there were a few incense sticks burning in front of the door panel, and a pair of wax, under the wax, there were several piles of paper money that had been burned out and smoked.

“...... Your dad, have you eaten?"

Looking at the mourning hall, the old lady opened her mouth and said in a loud voice,

“...... Dad'...... They'll feed Dad in a while. ”

Looking at the old lady, the middle-aged woman paused, and then said aloud.

The old lady slowly turned her head, looked at the middle-aged woman again, nodded, and was silent again, slowly lowering her head.

“...... Host, please bring some peanuts and sugar......"

On the side, the person who presided over the funeral turned around and shouted at the middle-aged woman,

“...... Okay, ...... right away."

The middle-aged woman heard the answer, turned her head again, and looked at the old lady,

“...... Mom, I'll cook you some rice balls, how many can you eat......"

When the old lady heard this, she was still silent, hanging her head,

The middle-aged woman paused, then walked away, busy.

......

Glancing at the courtyard, Lian Ge moved his steps and walked towards the old lady in the courtyard.

“...... Old man, I'm a passerby, passing by here, I happened to meet your mansion on errands, I don't know if I can ask for a glass of wine. ”

Walking in front of the old lady, Lian Ge said in a calm tone.

When the words fell, the old lady was still hunched up, her head bowed, sitting, silent,

“...... Sorry, sorry ......."

The middle-aged woman who was busy on the side noticed this, hurriedly walked over, and greeted,

“...... My dad went, and my mom was a little uncomfortable...... Slack, slack...... Young man, you sit first, sit first. ”

"Thank you. ”

Hearing this, Lian Ge thanked him, turned his head again, and looked at the old lady,

The old lady sat down, slowly raised her head, her eyes were a little cloudy, and looked at Lian Ge,

“...... Have a seat...... Old man, he likes to be lively, he likes to ...... It's hilarious. ”

As she spoke, the old lady slowly lowered her head again and fell silent.

"Thank you, old man. ”

Looking at this old lady, Lian Ge thanked him again,

“...... Sit, young man, sit down first, and I'll pour you a cup of tea. ”

The middle-aged woman looked at the old lady, then turned around, took a stool, put it next to Lian Ge, said hello, turned around and walked away, and got busy.

Glancing at the old lady again, Lian Ge sat down beside him, turned his gaze, and looked into the courtyard.

......

In the courtyard, a group of guests were eating melons and fructose, talking, and it was quite lively.

“...... Hey, this old couple has been for so many years, and I don't know how long I will be angry for the rest. ”

“...... Lao Chen, that kid in your family said he brought his girlfriend back?"

“...... Lao Xu, why didn't your family come with you...... The child was still young, and it was not good to think that it would be good to come, so I let her stay at home and take care of the child, and I came alone......"

The voices of the words mingled and rang on the other side of the courtyard,

Half of the yard seems to be much quieter.

The old lady leaned over and sat in a chair, her head hung down, as if she was distracted, silent and silent.

......

“...... The old man, a few nights ago, told me that he wanted me to make some dumplings for him. I said okay, let him go to town the next day, buy some meat and come back, I'll wrap him ......"

“...... It should be good, and he said that he would turn over the mountains and the fields, and see how to plant some sweet potatoes......"

The old lady slowly raised her head, looked at the mourning hall that had been vacant, and said loudly,

“...... Whatever it is, how it ......"

“...... The next morning, I got up first, and he hadn't woken up yet, so I thought I would let him sleep a little longer, and I went to cook the rice in the pot first...... I've cooked my meal, and he hasn't gotten up yet...... So I went and called him...... Call him, but he shouldn't, so I'll push him and call him by name...... When he touched him, he was already cold......"

As she spoke, the old lady fell silent again.
