Chapter 3 Happy Events and Funerals - Red and White Events
From childhood to adulthood, Rollo was praised by his classmates as a beauty who could only be seen at a glance!
She has very straight long black hair, a petite figure, and a face that is more gentle and lovely like a classical beauty. It's just strange that every time someone who has a crush on her sees her for the first time, they will feel amazing, but when they see her for the second time, they will feel that she is very ordinary, and she is not at all amazing when they met her for the first time.
So since she was a child, Luo Luo has never had a boyfriend, even if as she grows up, her appearance becomes more and more beautiful, but with the growth of more and more same-sex friends, and the number of opposite-sex friends is close to zero.
As for why there is such a strange growth trend, the reason is very simple, women think she is not a threat, and men think she is too ordinary.
This fact even made Luo Luo doubt her aesthetics for a while, after all, she felt that she was very good-looking, if it weren't for her grandmother's enlightenment, she might still be living in her own world with low self-esteem, walking with her head down, and looking at the world with her head down.
Grandma said: "Everyone is born worthy, everyone is different, don't doubt yourself, don't deny yourself, take it seriously, just live every day happily, big people have big people's lives, small people also have small people's world." ”
This sentence seems very ordinary now, and grandma's answer at that time was also that the bull's head was not the horse's mouth, but it was like a ray of sunshine when it rested on the young Luo Luo at that time. Gradually, she learned to get used to it and found her own way of life.
Even if she is ignored, she can live happily and fully every day in ordinary days day after day, and she has grown up healthily so far.
The sound of the trumpet in the distance became louder and louder, interrupting Rollo's distracted thoughts, she shook her head to clear herself, she had just returned to her hometown, but she already missed her family a little.
Not far away, a bunch of people gathered around and didn't know what they were looking at, Luo Luo was curious and walked over to take a look.
I saw two girls in the front wearing bright red clothes, each carrying a small basket in their right hand, and after walking a few steps, they grabbed a handful of petals from the basket and scattered them aside, Rollo was most impressed by their makeup, their faces were white, and a large lump of thick blush was smeared on both sides of their cheeks, which looked as funny as a clown.
The two girls were followed by four strong men dressed in black, each with a large red flower on their clothes, and to her surprise, the four strong men were carrying a sedan chair on their shoulders!
It's also a sedan chair that has been painted red!!
The whole scene looks like an ancient wedding, if you guess correctly, the person sitting on the sedan chair should be the bride, but I didn't expect that the countryside still retains such an ancient wedding pattern.
A gust of wind blew, causing Rollo's eyes to sting, and she blinked, her vision blurring a little. At this moment, the surrounding voices seemed to weaken all of a sudden, her eyes suddenly widened, the wind blew the curtain that covered the inside of the sedan chair slightly, and a pair of white hands appeared in her sight, but opposite to the white were the pair of long black nails!
How could a bride have such strange nails?! Luo Luo wondered in her heart, the wind had just blown at this time, she looked left and right, no one was discussing the matter of the bride's nails, could it be that she was just seeing it herself?
Rollo thought about it in his heart, and was more inclined to see this conclusion wrongly, if he was the only one who saw it...... That's really-
It's so weird!!
You must have seen it wrong, you must have seen it wrong! I must have read it wrong!! Rollo kept hinting at himself in his heart, and his whole body trembled, as if he could throw away his bad luck.
At this time, several women beside her muttered in what they thought were small voices: "Oh, that girl is so pitiful! I heard that I got married to make money for my sister's treatment. ”
The word "pitiful" immediately caught her attention, and Rollo immediately pricked up his ears and eavesdropped.
"Yes, what was supposed to be a good happy event, why did it suddenly turn into a joyful event?"
"Shhhhh
Immediately there was silence.
After a while, a small voice sounded again, "It's also the people over there in the east who are not serious, instigating others to marry a daughter-in-law to chongxi, saying that this can make the old man dissipate his sickness, and the result is good, he was just going to marry the bride today, but the old man died today, you say, what kind of evil has this been created?!" ”
Rollo only felt a chill all over her body when she heard this, and there was no need to eavesdrop at this time, because she had already seen it-
The sedan chair was followed by two flower girls scattering flowers, and after they passed, a long line of white clothes slowly followed them.
Everyone was dressed in linen and filial piety, crying with a sad face, sobbing in a low voice as they walked, and the atmosphere was completely different from the previous happy event, and what was surrounded in the middle of the team was an ordinary black coffin......
Luo Luo touched her arm, and she had goosebumps all over her body, and what made her even more incomprehensible was that the loudspeaker that attracted her before was actually following behind the mourning team!
The sound of trumpets and drums shook the sky, as if they were afraid that people would not hear them, and the people who played the music were all beaming, in stark contrast to the mourners in front of them, and the scene was really indescribably strange and distorted.
Luo Luo instantly felt a shudder, but the people around him seemed to have long been accustomed to such things, no, it should be said that they were not surprised by this kind of strange thing. The women were still muttering vigorously, sympathizing with the bride, and somehow Rollo's mind kept echoing with those white hands and dark nails.
When the team walked by, the crowd gradually dispersed, and Luo Luo was a little uneasy, and walked in the direction of the old mansion in a daze.
"Hey, little sister!" The aunt in the store suddenly called out to Luo Luo.
Luo Luo was stunned and came back to his senses, "Auntie, what's wrong?" ”
The aunt pulled Luo Luo aside and pointed to a house in front of her, which was just in front of the old mansion, and she whispered, "You also saw the group of people who passed by just now, right?" ”
Luo Luo nodded, not knowing why the aunt had specifically told her about it.
The aunt then said, "That house is the couple's new house!" ”
Rollo was taken aback, "Then how did they ......?"
"They're going to the old house in the east now, hey, I don't know what that family is doing, anyway, remember to lock the door when you go to bed at night, if you hear something outside, don't be curious to go out and see."
Rollo nodded desperately, joke! It's too late for her to escape, how could she go out and see curiously!!
The aunt saw that she was so obedient, and she was a little relieved, there are a lot of idle things in the village, but nosy things are unacceptable.
"Hey, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Come on, come on, come to Auntie's side to eat! ”
Before Rollo could refuse, he was enthusiastically pulled into the commissary by his aunt for dinner.
