Chapter Ninety-Eight: Heaven does not do what he wants, and he has no affection

After dinner, Ermao walked up to the widow and said, "Auntie, I'll go to Chen Xue's house and see what they arrange for me to do tomorrow?" ”

"Go ahead. Don't be in a hurry to run home, you have to look like you are helping others, why do you always run home? I'm fine again. Go ahead, look longer when you help others, walk a few more steps, and do more work to keep people from dying. ”

", I know my aunt. Then I'm leaving. Fan Ermao said and walked out the door, and there was an aunt behind him, "Go." The voice contains infinite maternal love, this voice is like a mother telling her son's taste, and it is like a voice reprimanding her son.

Er Mao listened to it and felt a warm current fill his atrium, his heart trembled slightly, the warm current rushed out of the atrium and surged upward, and Ermao's eyes moistened. I thought: "If my mother is alive, I may not be as good as my aunt to me, but unfortunately my aunt will not last long." Thinking about the tears already rolling in my eyes.

Ermao walked and thought about whether his life was too hard, it was the life of his father and mother, and he thought that he had died since he was born without seeing what his mother looked like, and he lived without a father and a mother to this day, and someone just cared for him, but now it is not long. I thought about walking, and then I asked myself over and over again, and slowly began to hate myself.

Walking to Chen Xue's house, the mourning shed had been erected, the couplets had been pasted, and everything was blurry in the dark night, only the mourning hall was brightly lit. I saw that the oil lamps were hanging high in the mourning hall, and the candles on the mourning table were flickering with dim light, jumping and jumping to convey a sad message to the surroundings. The filial sons sat on both sides of the black coffin, looking depressed and tired, and only the children who had not slept still maintained their full energy, laughing and laughing, without any sadness.

Ermao looked around for a week and turned around and walked towards the West House, thinking in his heart that a child is a child after all. Innocent child.

Walking into the West House, the uncle of the same clan was still sitting in the old position, talking to people with his face on his shoulder, and when he saw Ermao entering the house, he nodded.

Ermao looked around for a week and found an open space to sit down. I thought, "Why didn't you see the teacher and left?" Thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask the uncle of the same door: "The old gentleman is gone?" ”

"Let's go, he'll go back when he's done."

"How did you go back to those dozens of miles?"

"The village sent someone to deliver it, and it's almost home."

"Ahh Yes! Ermao nodded. My heart suddenly emptied, and I felt like something was missing, and I was uneasy to sit there, and my body was turning around, and my ass was rubbing back and forth, so boring. Indeed, all the relatives of the filial family in this house are the same family, and most of them are elders, and these people sit in this house to discuss important matters. This house is called the gentleman's hall in rural customs, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter and exit casually. Although Ermao is a member of the inner cabinet, he can't interject, so he naturally feels uncomfortable sitting in this meeting hall. I always feel that I am a mule, and the rest is useless.

After sitting for a while, Ermao saw that it was not interesting for him to sit all the time. So he stood up quietly and walked to the east room, which was two rooms, one to the south for the kitchen. One is a miscellaneous room, which is not usually used, but now the funeral is cleaned up for the helpers, and it is also a place for the female filial relatives to rest.

Ermao walked to the door and poked his head in, "Ermao, come in." ”

As soon as Ermao heard that it was Sanni's voice, he immediately felt energetic in his heart, and quickly rushed into the east room, and when he entered the house, he felt happy, and saw Chen Hong, Chen Xue, Sanni and two female relatives sitting in the house chatting. Ermao walked closer and said with a smile: "Why are you not crying and sitting here in the mourning hall?" ”

"I'm waiting to cloak you in linen and wear filial piety, come here and have a set of filial piety clothes, put them on and cry in the mourning hall." Sanni said with a smile.

"Eh, don't you say that I was also just about to ask, I've been here to help for two days, why don't you wear a filial piety hat?"

"That's it, who sent the filial piety? Why don't you give Ermao a filial piety hat. Chen Hong said reproachfully.

"It's that he's a junior, and it's filial piety to come here to help, why doesn't anyone give him what should be given, take one and put it on him." Sanni ran to a bamboo basket by the wall with a smile and took out a filial piety hat, turned around and walked in front of Ermao, and said, "Bow your head, I'll put it on for you." ”

"Eh, eh, don't wear it, don't be busy wearing it, the younger generation only wears a filial piety hat, and he has to add a filial piety belt to the junior." Chen Hong got up as she spoke, walked to the bamboo basket, and walked over with a filial piety belt from inside.

Chen Hong and Sanni stood in front of Ermao's face, but they didn't put a filial piety hat on Ermao, but looked at Ermao with a smile and said: "There are rules in our village, all filial sons must kowtow to the old man three times before wearing a filial piety hat, go, I will take you to kowtow." Sanni said as she grabbed Ermao's arm and pulled it out.

"Don't worry, don't worry, why haven't I heard of this rule, what kind of rule is this, I've been in the past two days, why haven't I seen anyone kowtow before wearing filial piety."

"This rule is in our village, and if other places are not prosperous, our village will have this rule, go." Sanni said and laughed and pulled out.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Ermao knew in his heart that Sanni was teasing him, so he stood still and let Sannila laugh.

Sanni didn't pull for a long time, and pretended to be angry and said: "Okay, okay, you turtle grandson, if you don't kowtow, don't wear this filial hat." Go, go, go home. Sanni said and turned into push, put her hand behind Ermao's back and pushed it out.

"If you don't have a number, the master has not yet spoken, you will push me out of the door, don't worry, don't worry! Look at what Chen Xue said, she wants me to kowtow, I'll kowtow immediately, okay? Ermao said to Sanni with a smile.

When Sanni heard this, she immediately stopped her hand, turned her head to look at Chen Xue and said with a smile: "Zhong, Chen Xue, you say, you say it quickly, say it quickly." ”

Ermao looked at it at a glance, and was surprised in his heart, only to see a pretty and dignified woman sitting in the dim light, and saw Chen Xue dressed in white, with a white cloth on her head, dressed in filial piety, sitting on a small stool on the inside like a fairy descending to earth, as the saying goes: To be pretty, three points of filial piety, it is not false at all, this Chen Xue is really pretty in filial piety, which is unforgettable.

Ermao was only interested in playing with Sanni just now, and he didn't have a chance to look inside, so he took a closer look, and secretly wondered in his heart, and thought to himself: What's going on with this God? Why did you send the immortals here? Fairies are not necessarily as beautiful as Chen Xue, where is this. It's a fairy girl. Ermao thought to himself and stared at Chen Xue with his eyes shining.

"Look, I haven't seen what your aunt and grandmother look like! Look, look, stare to death, and you can't pick it up if you look in. Chen Hong scolded loudly.

Ermao was awakened by Chen Hong's scolding, and smiled embarrassedly and explained: "Look at her, just look at her wearing filial piety clothes and feel curious, look at what you said to me, like dead eyelids." ”

"It's nice to say, you're dead eyelids, you're perverted eyes, others don't know what you're like. I can see you in your bones. Chen Hong pouted and said.

"Look, look, this daughter-in-law is not in the middle, talking and talking about the dog has gone to the five places." Ermao said self-deprecatingly.

"Okay, okay, stop bickering, you don't have to wear a filial piety hat yourself." Chen Xue said with a smile, this smile doesn't matter, it broke Ermao's heart. Ermao felt a surge of blood in his heart. rushed to the head and buzzed verbally, and with a seductive smile, Ermao was sent to the minion country, where he still knew how to wear a filial piety hat, and he was stunned there.

"Put it on." Sanni will snatch the filial piety hat in Ermao's hand and buckle it heavily on Ermao's head. Pressed Ermao's head hard, pressed it low, and the pressure of Ermao bent down with his head and body, and he almost didn't have a mouth to gnaw on the mud. The whole body leaned forward, and it took two steps in a row to stand firm. Several women couldn't help but laugh when they saw Ermao's bear-like appearance.

Ermao listened to the laughter of several women and straightened his bent waist. With a smile on his face, he looked at Sanni without being annoyed or angry, and said: "You turtle Sun Nizi is not hit, it doesn't matter if you press it, you almost let me kowtow to a few of them, this old one doesn't have to enjoy my head, but let a few people who are alive enjoy my head, don't break their birthdays, Lord Yama has reduced their longevity to see if they don't scold you." ”

"We're not afraid of folding our lives, you knock it, I've enjoyed it." Chen Hong said with a smile.

"Look at you, I won't knock you if you enjoy it. I'd better keep this for Chen Xue's mother-in-law. ”

"If you want to knock, you won't be allowed to knock, who are you from her family? Are you going to kowtow? Sanni asked, pointing to Ermao's nose.

"I'm his neighbor, junior, what's the matter, the neighbor doesn't kowtow."

"Xing, Xing, go knock now, go." Sanni stepped forward and grabbed Ermao's arm and was about to go out.

"Don't worry, don't worry, let's break the relationship between you and Chen Xue first, why don't you kowtow." Ermao smiled and broke free of Sanni's hand and said, after speaking, he ran to Chen Hong, pulled a small stool and sat down.

"Eh, this turtle grandson has also sat for a long time." Sanni pointed at him and scolded.

"Hey, you're right, when I came out tonight, my aunt said, 'People Chen Hong's family is doing funerals, let you go and help, you will stay there honestly, people can't help with funerals, and they are busy with personal fields, don't run home if you have nothing to do.' Hey, my aunt has explained to me, don't rush to the house. Ermao still said with a smile.

"Then why don't you go to Westinghouse?" Chen Hong will interject angrily.

"The Westinghouse is the gentleman's hall, the council room, I sit in the way, and I don't feel comfortable sitting in your room."

", I don't want a man in this house." Sanni grinned again and came over to chase him.

"Eh, eh, why did I offend you tonight, you can't get along with me. I won't go, just rely on your house, see what you're doing. Ermao pretended to be angry and got into trouble with Sanni.

"Okay, okay, it's okay if you don't go, if you don't go, you have to tell us a few nonsense." Sanni smiled and stepped forward to ask for the filial piety belt in Chen Hong's hand, and then walked up to Ermao and pulled Ermao's head and said: "Put on a filial piety hat and don't put on a filial piety belt, be an elder, come here and I'll put it on for you." ”

"I'll only quarrel with each other, and forget about this stubble." Ermao smiled and stretched out his hand to pick up the filial piety belt, Sanni came with a palm and signaled Ermao not to move, Sanni stretched out her hands and put on the filial piety belt for Ermao. Chen Hong looked at the vinegar and said, "Look at your beauty, there is a fat Sanni waiting to put on this filial piety hat, and the eighth floor will not be taken off tonight." ”

"Don't say it, my filial piety hat is worn by Sanni's fleshy little jade hand, and I really haven't taken it off." Ermao said and went to touch Sanni's hand, seeing that he touched Sanni's hand, when he didn't seem to touch it, Sanni reversed the back of her hand and slapped it on the top of Ermao's head, almost didn't knock off the filial piety hat, and shouted: "Let your mouth be cheap, and your hands are cheap." ”

Ermao's head was hooked forward by Sanni's slap, and the filial piety hat was also twisted to the front. A few women laughed again, until Ermao raised his head, straightened his hat, and said with a smile: "Don't laugh, don't laugh, let people outside hear that a few of us are making trouble in this house, not to mention that we are not serious!" What are you doing today, doing funerals, don't make trouble. ”

Ermao said that it really worked, and several women stopped talking with smiling faces.

Only then did Ermao gather his attention and take a closer look at Chen Xue, just don't look at it, this look is imprinted in Ermao's heart, and he didn't forget the image left by this glance until he died. (To be continued......)
