Chapter Seventy-Seven: Waking Up from a Dream and Sadness (Reissue of the November 16 Chapter)
The light of the early morning shone into the empty wedding room, Xiaoxue was lying on the bed with the tablet on her side, sweating profusely, tears streaming down her closed eyes, wetting the red and white bedding, frowning and whispering in a trembling tone;
"Bajie! Grab my hand! Catch... Eight precepts! No... Eight precepts! ”
Xiaoxue got up suddenly, woke up from the nightmare, looked around with teary eyes, suddenly came back to her senses, reached out and touched a handful of tears, slowly grabbed the spirit card that fell aside, and pressed it to her chest, sobbing softly;
"Bang Bang Bang!"
There was a knock on the door, and Xiulian, who rushed to hear the sound, raised her sleeves to wipe the tears in her eyes, took a deep breath with red eyes, tried her best to suppress her sad emotions, barely squeezed out a smile, and cautiously pushed the door and walked in;
"Squeak!"
After hearing the knock on the door, Xiaoxue, who tried hard to clean up his emotions and wipe his tears, quickly turned around and turned his back to the door, desperately wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes and face;
"Light snow! What's wrong with you? Having a nightmare? ”
Xiulian looked at Xiaoxue's back and asked with a worried expression;
"Nope!"
Xiaoxue replied in a trembling voice, and the tears that had been wiped away overflowed disobediently again with Xiulian's inquiry;
Xiulian took a step forward, looked at Xiaoxue's shoulders and shrugged it, her heart was clear but not broken, and her voice was gentle and trembling to persuade her;
"Alas! Daughter! If there is anything to say, tell my mother, the days after this are still long, you can't be bitter yourself, fortunately, our family is still together, and we will still eat in a pot in the future, Bajie is gone, in this life, my mother will accompany you! ”
Xiaoxue looked at the spirit card in her hand, took a deep breath, and slowly spit it out;
"Mom! When can I go to school? ”
Xiulian wiped the tears that overflowed her eyes again, frowned and thought about it;
"After the first seven, let's set up a grave for Bajie, and then you can go to school, and our family should be able to slowly return to normal this day!"
Xiaoxue was deeply surprised and full of doubts;
"Isn't the new tomb halfway up the Awl Mountain from Bajie?"
Xiulian frowned and thought deeply, and after a moment, she suddenly realized, with a wry smile on her face;
"That's your grandfather, uh, no, it's time to change his name to grandpa, that's before your grandfather went crazy, I wanted to see if I could find Bajie's body, your father helped call the people in the village to help dig the mud pit, and a few skulls came out and were buried again!"
Xiaoxue wiped away her tears and looked back at Xiulian;
"Mom! Bajie's body has not been found, how can we set up a grave for him? ”
Xiulian looked at Xiaoxue's red eyes, still stained with crystal tears, stepped forward with a distressed face, stretched out her hand in a complicated mood, and gently wiped away her tears;
"Before your grandfather went crazy, he asked Zhang's mother to change Bajie's new clothes, and I wanted him to wear them when he went to school, but Zhang's mother was old and her eyes were not good, and she was two days late, who would have thought... Alas! Use this to dress Brother Li for Bajie! ”
Xiaoxue raised her head to look at Xiulian, holding back the tears that were about to overflow her eyes;
"Mom! Then let's put Bajie's clothes and mound in the place where he had an accident! ”
Xiulian held back tears and nodded, her heart was mixed;
"Good! Do as you say! Now your grandfather is crazy and delirious, you are the daughter-in-law of Bajie, you have the right to call the shots, when your grandfather Wang comes, let's talk to him, no one should object! ”
Xiaoxue held Xiulian's hand to wipe her tears, and tried to squeeze out a smile, but the smile was more ugly than crying;
"Mom! I'm fine, let's get up, and when Grandpa Wang comes over, let's go and build a grave for Bajie together! ”
Xiulian smiled reluctantly and nodded, but her heart hurt like a knife;
"Good! Hurry up and get up, Mom will get you something to eat! ”
Xiulian turned around and walked out of the door, walking in a little hurry, she was afraid that she couldn't hold back her tears, which made Xiaoxue sad;
Knowing that Suosuo's voice sounded, Xiaoxue put Bajie's token on the table at the bedside, tried to endure the sadness in her heart, changed the red wedding dress on her body into a white dress, and put a small white flower on her head, unconsciously remembering the scene where Bajie wore flowers for her;
"Bang Bang Bang!"
While Xiulian was busy working on the stove, there was a heavy and powerful knock at the door;
"Who?"
Uncle Li's voice came from outside the door;
"Xiulian! It's me, your old Uncle Li! What about the bastards? Open the door to me! ”
Xiulian patted her white-stained hand, wiped it on her apron again, and turned to open the door for Uncle Li;
"Click! Squeak! ”
Uncle Wang and Uncle Li stood outside the door together, followed by a few people, holding the burial things in their hands, as well as Bajie's new clothes that had never been worn;
"Uncle Wang! Uncle Li! ”
Uncle Wang's eyes are full of bloodshots, he is well versed in the way of traditional Chinese medicine, and he is good at health preservation, but his head is also dyed white at some point, and there are more wrinkles on his face, and his eyebrows are gloomy, crawling full of sorrow;
"Where's Xiaoxue? This kid is all right! ”
Uncle Li poked his head over with a puzzled face and looked at the empty courtyard;
"Where's the bastard? It's so late, and there's still a lot of things to do, could it be that he's still sleeping? ”
Without waiting for Xiulian to answer, Uncle Wang was the first to speak, with a little apology and care in his hoarse voice;
"The bastard is gone, he went to the city, Lao Wang has become like this, he wants to go and see if he can get his eldest brother back!"
Xiulian's expression was a little gloomy, implying endless worry;
Uncle Li's open mouth closed in embarrassment, and when it came to his mouth, he swallowed it back;
Uncle Wang looked at Xiulian, his voice hoarse and comforting;
"Don't worry, I gave it a few hundred yuan for the journey, and wrote a letter to my old comrade-in-arms for him to take with him, he will come back at most during the New Year, if there is anything at home, you can tell my uncle, I will never refuse!"
Xiulian nodded with tears in her eyes, she was angry, but after all, husband and wife, if it weren't for this incident, she and the bastard would never quarrel easily, the bastard left home so suddenly, her heart was empty, all worried;
Uncle Wang looked at the empty courtyard with a worried face;
"Where's Xiaoxue?"
Xiulian stretched out her hand and pointed to the marriage room;
"Squeak!"
Xiaoxue just opened the door and walked out, dressed in white, holding the token of Bajie in her hand;
"Grandpa Wang! Grandpa Lee! You're coming! ”
Uncle Wang and Uncle Li nodded slightly, and Xiulian turned around and walked towards Xiaoxue;
"Xiaoxue, don't worry, let's eat first, you haven't eaten all day yesterday!"
Xiaoxue shook her head slightly;
"Mom! I'm fine, let's go and set up a grave for Bajie first! ”
Xiulian was stunned, and after a moment, she sighed, reached out and took off her apron and put it aside, and turned to look at Uncle Wang and Uncle Li;
"Let's go!"
Uncle Wang and Uncle Li stopped talking, glanced at each other, and reluctantly turned around and went out, Xiaoxue and Xiulian followed behind, and after going out of the gate, the people standing outside the door also followed silently. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
