Chapter 282: Scared Me
[Ran^文^Library][]. []. Generally at night, the relatives of the deceased will send some paper cows, paper people, and cars to the intersection to be burned, which is also the last step of the funeral, and after burning, it means that the person is completely sent away.
Don't look back when you go back, otherwise it's easy to make the person who left reluctant and have to come back.
At that time, everyone walked to the crossroads together, Honghong and I couldn't stay at Grandma Li's sister's house, just behind the mighty crowd, in fact, we were not good to follow, because we were outsiders, but Grandma Li insisted on going, here is a mouth, Grandma Li and her, the sister who left, are not close, but very good when she was a child, very familiar, a little like a family, because Grandma Li insisted that she want to go, and said that she must give her this sister the last ride, At that time, the eyes were firm beyond my expectations, and they were a little different from her, because in my impression, Grandma Li was really afraid of these things, and her reaction that day was quite strange.
When her sister's relatives saw Grandma Li like this, they didn't say much, and at the same time acquiesced to me and Honghong following them.
When I came to the crossroads, when I burned up, because there were a lot of paper things, so it was on fire, and I followed Honghong to stand aside and watch, until it was almost burned, I vaguely saw one or two old ladies, pulling their hands into a red car.
At first, I didn't pay much attention to it, muttering in my heart, why are there still people driving red cars in this countryside, and they are quite familiar, but at that moment, I suddenly remembered, wasn't the red car burned just now?!
When I realized this, I immediately felt bad, staring at the red car, and then I saw some people in colorful clothes following behind the car, and gradually disappeared.
That scene frightened me, at first I was just afraid of those colorful people, I knew in my heart that they were freshly burned paper figures, but it didn't take long for me to feel that something was wrong, why were there two old ladies who got into the car?! Except for Grandma Li's sister, who is that one, and the paper man didn't burn the old lady!
When the burn was over, we walked back, Honghong may have been a little scared, pulling my hand tightly, I was also afraid, so I felt that the hand I was pulling with Honghong was sticky, but despite this, neither of us wanted to let go, so we walked back to Grandma Li's sister's house.
I have doubts in my heart, but I don't know who to talk to, tell Grandma Li that she must be afraid, and she may not understand, and I am afraid that they don't know my situation when I tell other adults, thinking that I am a child talking nonsense, after all, grandma's business is often misunderstood by some people, and I have seen it.
So worried back to Grandma Li's sister's house, after going back they demolished the shed, someone was still cleaning up the yard, Grandma Li led us directly into the house, as soon as we entered the house, Grandma Li sat on the kang, stretched out her hand to hang her waist, and muttered "Oops, I'm tired to death." ”
While she was talking, a woman in her thirties came in, she was the daughter of Grandma Li's sister, I heard Grandma Li call her Xiaoyue, Xiaoyue looked at Grandma Li and opened her mouth to thank her, and said that she was here to help or something.
Grandma Li waved her hand, opened her mouth and said, "Xiaoyue, you don't have to be polite to me, I was like a person with your mother when I was a child, I'm just a pity, it's a pity that I haven't seen each other much in the past two years, and now I can only give it away, otherwise I always feel unsteady in my heart." “
Xiaoyue nodded, her eyes were always red, she had been crying all the way, and now she was a little swollen, looking at Grandma Li: "Auntie, no matter what you say, I thank you for coming over, my family is also very back, and I have to walk a long way when I get out of the car, and you didn't call me to pick it up, I'm not embarrassed to do this, and I have two children, oops, if my mother knew, she would definitely be moved." ”
Grandma Li sighed, "Oh, don't talk about this, it's a blessing to go, otherwise when people are older, it hurts every day and it's uncomfortable, don't add it up, don't be too uncomfortable, you have to live a good life." ”
"Yes, I know." Xiaoyue answered, looking at Grandma Li, "Auntie, you should rest early today, get up in the second half of the night and get busy, don't be tired, there is nothing to do now, hurry up and lie down for a while." ”
Grandma Li nodded, "Well, I'll lie down for a while, you go and get busy with you first, don't worry about me, and don't be polite to me." ”
At this time, Honghong interjected on the side, "Grandma, when are we going home?" "I think Honghong must not be able to stay, she has become very quiet and honest since she came here, a little depressed nature, should be afraid of this atmosphere, so the whole person is also depressed, as soon as she sees that the funeral is over, she is anxious to go back.
As soon as Xiaoyue heard Honghong say this, she stepped forward and looked at Grandma Li, "Auntie, you can stay at my house for a few more days, don't be in a hurry to go back, since you are here, you can stay for a while." ”
Before Grandma Li could respond, my red face immediately collapsed, and the whole face was full of three words: reluctance.
"Tomorrow I'll take a look at Aunt Qiu's lying old Liu's head, and I'll go back directly, I just want to send my sister-in-law, and I have a wish when I send it away." Grandma Li looked at Xiaoyue and said.
Xiaoyue looked at Grandma Li and was stunned for a moment: "Auntie, do you mean the Uncle Liu who lives in the village, the one who has no children and no daughters?" ”
Grandma Li nodded: "Yes, it's him, I haven't seen him for some years, and it just so happens that I'm back this time and I'm going to see him." Saying that, Grandma Li frowned and looked at Xiaoyue, "But it's not right, we knew each other very well when we were children, your mother is gone, why didn't Lao Liu Tou come over, didn't you tell him Xin'er." ”
Xiaoyue shook her head, "I can't tell Uncle Liu Xin'er, his Aunt Qiu's nursing home in the city, their family's land occupies the road, and they should have given him a lot of money, so he took the money and left, and went directly to the city." ”
Grandma Li was stunned for a moment, "Why did you go to the city again?" ”
Xiaoyue sighed, "Auntie, you also know the situation of Uncle Liu's family, his brother can't do it, you don't know, some time ago, as soon as the brothers and sisters of Uncle Liu's family heard that Uncle Liu is rich now, they all began to come to the door, to support him, to take him home or something, his two old sisters-in-law also made a big joke in the village because they robbed him!" ”
