I asked Xue Jiao: "The night I came back, what did you do in your hometown, and why did the fifth grandfather let you stay." "Don't mention it, it's sad to mention it. Xue Jiao turned her head away. Seeing that there was nothing to say about the two of us, Xue Jiao turned her head again and said: "My family has no son, according to the customs of my hometown, whoever mourns will pass my family's homestead to whom." "To whom?" I asked. "It was passed on to the second son of the fifth grandfather's family. Xue Jiao was a little sad. Then he said, "I don't agree, and I quarreled with the fifth grandfather." "At that time, let's come back together, I shouldn't have left you alone in my hometown. I looked at Xue Jiao's aggrieved eyes. "My parents are gone, and I want to find a familiar feeling in my hometown. Xue Jiao said. "What happened?" I asked. "Later, I cried heartbreakingly, and the fifth grandfather had a bigger temper. Xue Jiao replied. Several men stared at their loved ones, they didn't understand Xue Jiao's cry, and in their hearts it was right to live the homestead.

After arguing with the fifth grandfather at night, I don't know when, it was the first half of the night, or maybe the second half of the night, Xue Jiao ran back to her old house angrily, maybe she was afraid of walking at night, Xue Jiao ran very fast. When you push open the door, it is dark and frightened, and there is no light, and the most frightening place in the countryside at night is the old rural houses, especially at night in winter. Maybe Xue Jiao just wants to go home and stay at home for a while, maybe it's because she can't control the ownership of the old house, and she still has a trace of reluctance to the old house. It's just that now the old house is dark and dilapidated, and it is difficult to get close. Trying to find some light, she lit a fire, and the light of the fire illuminated the ruined scenes around her, which looked like Xue Jiao's past. No, this mess around, I'm going to make this a thing of the past, I'm going to say goodbye to these, Xue Jiao lit the weeds. The firelight gave Xue Jiao a hint of warmth, illuminated the surroundings, and illuminated the old house. I'm going to say goodbye to these, think about my parents, look at my dilapidated old house, Xue Jiao shed two lines of tears. The dilapidated old house can't be close, she also lit a fire in the house, the firelight illuminates the table, chairs, stools, and beds in the house, it is so familiar, the fire is about to be extinguished, Xue Jiao put a stool into the fire, and then put a chair into the fire, and there are quilts in the cabinet that she has slept on, shoes she has worn, clothes and socks worn when she was a child, and she has seen things and thoughts, but she also put them into the fire one by one, the fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the fire is skyrocketing, burning the house. Burn today, burn the past. These are all things that I will only know later.

I took Xue Jiao's hand and walked down the street. Suddenly, Xue Jiao stopped.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Where are we going?" asked Xuejiao. "Do you have a house, do you have a car?" Xue Jiao then asked.

"No, nothing. I bowed my head.

"You don't have anything, marrying you is a dead end!" Xue Jiao said with certainty. Xue Jiao looked at my flushed face, I closed my eyes and lowered my head even more.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have a car, you don't have a house, I have it, I have a car, I have a house. Xue Jiao said.

"Really?" I looked up excitedly.

"Now shall I marry you, or will you marry me?" Xue Jiao said with a smile.

"You marry me, you have a car and a house, you marry a husband. I said with a smile.

"From now on, whoever cooks the food, who drags the land, who brings the children, and who keeps the money. ”

"In the future, I will cook the meal, I will drag the ground, I will bring the children, and you will keep the money and wife. I continued. "If I treat my wife badly in the future, let me become a eunuch in the next life, and if I betray my wife, let me thunder five times in the sky and be in a different place. ”

It was only later that I learned that Xuejiao's father was sick all the year round, the family was very poor, and there were old and young at that time, and Xuejiao's father had to insist on making money to support the family and go out to work in order to support the family. When he was working in Jinan, he accidentally had an accident and passed away. At that time, the boss really couldn't come up with the money, so he promised to give a house a top account after building the building, so he had this house.
