Chapter 33: A Thunderbolt from the Sky

At this time, I estimate that there are 20,000 to 30,000 people in Hongmiaozi Street a day.

I don't know if I'm coming to Hongmiaozi now to feel the kind of crowded and vibrant scene, or to pretend to be forced.

On the third day, Mr. Wang came to my shop to sit for a while, and I happened to be idle, and the two chatted for a long time. The old man also came to my store in July, and this is the third time.

In fact, I practice Tai Chi with the old man almost every morning, but I never talk about stocks in the morning, but I mainly talk about stocks in my store, and it seems that the old man is very interested in stocks.

Don't pretend to be a man, pretend to be forced to be struck by lightning, this sentence seems to be true, only a few days before the thunderbolt came.

"Xiaoshan, Xiaofei's grandmother is dying. "At three o'clock in the afternoon of the 5th, the boss came to Hongmiaozi on a tricycle panting and told me unfortunate news.

"What's going on?"

"The old woman had been to the hospital the day before yesterday and came back noisy. Today, I heard Xiaofei call his dad and say come back quickly, her mother-in-law is very sick. Just now, Xiaofei called his second uncle and said that her mother-in-law was no longer good, so come back quickly. Xiaofei couldn't cry, I thought about coming to tell you. ”

"I've got to go and see, boss, you can help me close the store. "My main concern is that Little Flying Girl, pick up the motorcycle keys and leave.

quickly returned to the hot pot restaurant and went straight to the third floor, but saw a tangled scene.

The old woman is half-leaning on the head of the bed, and the little flying girl is kneeling on the edge of the bed, holding a small photo frame in her hand, which should be the only photo of his parents and the only portrait of her mother. The other hand held her mother-in-law's hand.

"Xiaofei, you said, you will never marry Li Xiaoshan in this life. ”

"Mother, Xiaoshan and I are sincere. "When I looked, what was the matter? How did I make such a show? Just as I wanted to step forward, her second uncle stopped me.

"Don't go over, it's a family matter, it's none of your business. "It's none of my business? Lao Tzu's lifelong happiness is almost gone.

"Uncle Chen......"

"Don't say anything, or get out right away. ”

"I ......" moved his lips and finally closed his mouth.

"Xiaofei, you still don't understand what your mother-in-law told you these days, do you really want your mother-in-law to close her eyes? ”

"Mother-in-law..... heartbreaking!

"You swear in front of your parents that you will never marry Li Xiaoshan in this life, and if you say that your mother-in-law will leave with peace of mind, your mother-in-law is good for you!"

Isn't this old woman so good? I really want to rush up and yell, what the hell are you doing?

"Mother...... I'm Chen Xiaofei..... Swear that I will never ...... in this life and Li Xiaoshan...... Marriage, if it is against ......"

"Okay, Xiaofei, that's enough, my ..... Shrewd..... Granddaughter. The voice was much softer.

"Mother-in-law......" This time Xiaofei really cried and fainted. I suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain.

"Chen Qiang!" The second uncle of Xiaofei immediately leaned over and pinched the old woman's other hand.

"I'll wait...... Not to you..... Brother...... Help me...... Take care...... Before she finished speaking, ......the old woman's hand loosened, her head lowered, and her eyelids slowly lowered.

"Mom......"

"Mom......"

"Mother-in-law......."

The second uncle of Xiaofei and the family all cried, and I also had tears in my eyes, I don't know whether I was sad for the death of the old woman or distressed to see Xiaofeinu.

"Xiaofei!" I still went over and nudged Pyo.

"Mother-in-law......" Xiaofei Nu raised her head and cried heartbreakingly.

"Xiao Li, you better go out first, it's not convenient for you to be here. "The second uncle of Little Flying Girl saw me supporting Little Flying Girl, and came over and gently pulled my arm.

I stared at Little Feinu's second uncle, and my clenched fist slowly loosened. I had no choice but to go to the balcony.

Depressed! What is going on! How can this be? Who told me?

I lit a cigarette and took two puffs.

"Boss, stay out of business for a few days, write a sign and hang it at the door. "The Boss just came back.

"Okay, I understand. ”

The next day, someone had already started to build a mourning hall on the first floor.

At noon, the little flying girl's father arrived in the dust.

"Mom......" was another heart-rending cry.

I have never dared to leave, and the little flying girl is in a bad state. I was completely out of shape, I lost a lot of weight, and I didn't speak when I looked at me, and I felt distressed to death! The doubts in my heart had to be put in my heart first.

On the sixth, seventh, and eighth days, it was a three-day practice, and then I went to the crematorium.

Before dawn on the ninth day, I went to Phoenix Mountain Cemetery to lay the ashes. Although I didn't participate, I accompanied the whole process, and I just wanted Xiaofei to be able to see me at any time.

The mourning hall was demolished on the morning of the 9th, and the hot pot restaurant had to be opened on the 10th, and it is estimated that the business will be poor for a while.

Dumbo came back and never went downstairs. I've been hanging around the hot pot restaurant for the past few days.

On the twelfth, it was already the twentieth of the lunar month.

"Young man, are you Li Xiaoshan?" Dumbo Daddy finally found me.

"Yes, Uncle Chen. "Xiaofei's father and I are about the same height, in his forties, with a pair of gold-wire glasses, but I am very tired these days, and there is still a trace of sadness on my face, otherwise I would be a beautiful man.

I haven't been single for more than ten years, it's a pity.

"I already know about you and Xiaofei, you break up!"

"Why, Uncle Chen, I ....."

"There is no reason, this is the old lady's last words, Xiaofei also swore an oath, young man, the matter has come to this, let it go!"

"What kind of hand? Uncle Chen, I am sincere to Xiaofei. ”

"Young man, I also have a general understanding of what happened, if you put it in normal times, Uncle may help you a few words, after all, Uncle is also a person from here. But now it's a collective decision for the family, do you want Xiaofei to break her oath? ”

"But what do we do?"

"There's nothing to do, I asked Xiaofei to go to her second aunt's factory as a contract worker in the New Year, and this hot pot restaurant, you can do it in April, and you will move when the rent arrives, so I will notify you in advance." This was my decision and that of her second uncle. ”

"I'm not reconciled, why is this? Uncle Chen?"

"It doesn't matter why it's anymore, it's useless to understand. Today, I officially explained this matter on behalf of Xiaofei. Young man, you are still young, and there is still a long way to go, so don't dwell on it for a while. After saying that, he tapped me on the shoulder and turned to go upstairs.

Eldest brother...... No, it should be the old man, didn't you worry about the little flying girl back then? Standing and talking didn't hurt your back. What is this?

On the fifteenth, the twenty-third day of the lunar month, Xiaofei's father actually returned to Yunnan.

No matter what, when the opportunity comes, you must ask Xiaofei Nu for clarification.

"Xiaofei, what the hell is going on?" I finally met Peter Pan on the third floor.

"Xiaoshan, don't ask. As soon as she spoke, Little Flying Girl's eyes burst into tears.

"What are we going to do?"

"I don't know, Xiaoshan, I really don't know!" Little Flying Girl cried.

"You come with me. "I looked upstairs, and my cousin was already on vacation.

"Where to go?"

"Go to our house!" As he spoke, he reached out to pull the little flying girl.

"Our family?"
