Chapter Seventy-Five: Sending Lights

After kneading the dough into a dough, knead it into a bowl shape and make four small eyes at equal places on the sides of the bowl, which are used to tie the rope.

Of course, you can't tie it now, and it will be deformed as soon as you tie it.

The finished thing should be taken outside to freeze, and when it is frozen, a rope should be tied to the eye and tied to a wooden stick.

Pour oil into the bowl and put twisted cotton thread on top. Let one end soak in oil, and the other end on the edge of the bowl, and the lamp is complete.

I heard someone shouting on the avenue.

Zhou Shujie knew that this was going to send the lamp together.

Zhou Shujie also slipped into the house, put on a coat, wrapped a headscarf, and put on a cotton hand. Carrying a box of matches in his straddle pocket, he took the prepared lamp and went to Aunt Guo'er's house to find someone.

First, she is going to deliver the lamp with Guo Sange and them.

The second is to ask Aunt Guo to help her take a look at the child.

As soon as Zhou Shujie entered Aunt Guo's house, Aunt Guo understood what it meant.

immediately got dressed and went out to Zhou Shujie's house to help her watch the children.

Brother Guo and the others immediately put on their clothes, took the prepared lamp, and took Zhou Shujie to Beishan.

This mountain is in the northwest of the village, also called Tomb Mountain, where the dead of the village are buried, about three or four miles from the village.

The old people all said that this is a good place for the master to see, sitting in the north and facing the south to look at the mountains and rivers.

The old farmers didn't know much about these feng shui issues, they only knew that the terrain here was high, and the water would not be able to flood here in the rainy years.

When the group set off to the grave mountain, it was already dark, and when they arrived at the cemetery, they found the grave of their ancestors and worshipped them, said a few auspicious words, and then lit the finished lamp to the sky, and it was dark.

I didn't leave first, I waited on the avenue, and when I was done, I walked back together.

Zhou Shujie was under the leadership of Guo Sange to find the Sun family's grave.

There are only two of the Sun family here, which are Sun Jinzhu's grandfather, grandmother, and father, among which the graves of grandparents are buried together.

stepped forward to worship first, lit the oil lamp, and then Zhou Shujie said: "Grandpa, grandma, father, I am your pillar who married back the daughter-in-law last year, my name is Zhou Shujie, and this year I gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses for your grandson." The child is now six months old, and I hope you can bless them with a healthy growth. The pillar has also gone to the battlefield now, please bless him with a safe return!"

After speaking, he walked a few more steps, deliberately stood in front of his father-in-law's grave, looked at the newly erected wooden tombstone and said, "Dad, my mother is much better now, if you are really here, please help her get better quickly." ”

After Zhou Shujie finished speaking, he walked to the side of the road, and now the sky is basically dark, and he can't see anything clearly.

All the lamps that were sent were lit.

By this flickering little bit of fire, everyone walked out of the cemetery, came to the avenue, and walked towards the village.

While walking back, I can still hear some people sigh and say: "We can still come here every year to send back the lamp, I heard that in the first two years, when the trouble was fierce, some graves were picked up." ”

"And this?"

"Yes, why not, I heard that there is a ............"

Zhou Shujie followed them into the village in the sound of everyone's conversation.

Third Brother Guo also deliberately sent her home, and then went back with Aunt Guo.

The night didn't stop sleeping.

Zhou Shujie had a dream, in the dream, she dreamed of the appearance of the pillar coming home ten years later, it didn't seem right, it should be ...... Ten years later, the pillar returned to his current home, because the two children were still in the same state as they are now.

I could see his face, but I couldn't hear his voice.

I could only see him say it but couldn't hear it, so anxious that Zhou Shujie asked him what he was talking about, and he woke up in a hurry.

When I opened my eyes, it was pitch black.

Zhou Shujie got up, lit a candle and took out his watch, and when he saw that it was only past eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, he picked up the two children and poured urine.

When the child finished urinating, he felt that he also had a little urge to urinate, and he squatted on the urinal and put water once.

Lifting his pants to see that his mother-in-law was sleeping so soundly, Zhou Shujie didn't call her after thinking about it.

went on the kang and fed the two children once, and when the children fell asleep, Zhou Shujie also fell asleep.

Zhou Shujie was not the only one who dreamed this night

…………

In a makeshift camp in a dense forest.

Sun Jinzhu, who slept in one of the tents, also had a dream profusely sweating, in which he dreamed that he had defeated the Yue Nan people and returned home with a longing heart.

It seems to be the home I am now, and it seems to be the home I was twenty years ago, with a serious father and a gentle mother at home. There is also a current wife, and the two children who are lying on the kang and only spitting bubbles.

Sun Jinzhu didn't understand what was going on?

He opened his mouth to ask, but his parents ignored him, as if they didn't see him, only his wife saw him and was talking to him, but he couldn't hear what she was saying, and he woke up from his dream just as he shouted "Daddy".

I sat there thinking about this dream for a while, but I didn't understand what it meant.

If you don't understand, you don't want to, so I got up and grabbed my gun and went out to change the guard with my comrades.

…………

The people who dreamed this night were not only the two of them, but there was also one person who also dreamed.

This person is Zhou Shujie's mother-in-law.

No one knows what dreams she had?

But Zhou Shujie guessed that this dream should be very painful for her mother-in-law.

Because in the morning, Zhou Shujie was awakened by her mother-in-law's crying.

Zhou Shujie, who was awakened, saw that her mother-in-law was still asleep, but she burst into tears.

Frightened, she didn't even bother to put on her clothes, dared to hurriedly come to her mother-in-law's side, patted her back gently like a child, and whispered comforting words.

Maybe she was comforted, or she was tired of crying, but her mother-in-law gradually calmed down in her sleep, and only occasionally twitched, which was a sign of crying.

I saw that my mother-in-law stopped crying.

Zhou Shujie put her heart in her stomach, she was most afraid that her mother-in-law would have a sudden situation.

Looking at the bright sky outside, since he woke up, he didn't sleep, put on his clothes and went to the ground to light the fire.

I lit the stove to make water, and went to the outhouse to see if the flesh I got back yesterday had not melted through.

Zhou Shujie looked at them one by one, and when he saw that everything was completely melted, he nodded with satisfaction, thinking, when he has time after breakfast, he will chop all of you, saving you all the time when cooking at night.

We don't know what other people eat in the morning.

Zhou Shujie's family eats rice and sauerkraut soup.

When I woke up this morning, my mother-in-law was a little unenergetic, and even ate a little less than usual.

Zhou Shujie thought, this should be because I was tired from dreaming and crying last night and didn't sleep, okay?

After her mother-in-law finished eating, Zhou Shujie asked her to lie on the kang and sleep again.

The mother-in-law lay on the pillow for a while and fell asleep.

Seeing that the mother-in-law fell asleep so quickly?

The corners of Zhou Shujie's mouth brought a smile, and sure enough, as she thought, her mother-in-law was in bad spirits because she didn't sleep well.

As long as it's not because she's not feeling well or sick, she's relieved.

After feeding the apples to the two children, they built several lines of defense by their side and let them play in it by themselves.
