The yard was bustling, almost all the neighbors came, people were gathering more and more, and people were helpless about the peach blossoms, but no one could come up with a more appropriate way to persuade and stop her for a while.

And Peach Blossom couldn't hide or control the sadness and grief in her heart, and all the grievances she couldn't help but accumulate in the gushing tears, and even poured out the resentment for many days almost with the unstoppable crying. She wept as she looked back on her past with the army, and she thought that when she first met him, he was so handsome and chic, romantic and true; It's so lively and cute, and can speak well. For him, she rejected the love and pursuit of many boys, and gave up the great opportunity to work in the city, that is, for him, how many people she refused to propose relatives and matchmakers for her, and how many relatives and friends she offended for this.

She remembered that in the days with the army, they talked about everything, talked about everything, they learned from the romantic couples in the novels and movies, and the two also made an oath: he will not marry if he is not a peach blossom, and she will not marry if he is not a soldier. Finally, during that tryst by the river, they stole the forbidden fruit and did something beyond the boundary, and since then they have made a private decision for life, even eight horses can't pull it back, even Peach Blossom's mother and her powerful uncle Qin Dachuan can't stop it.

Sadly, on the road ahead of her, one thunderbolt after another failed to wake her up until she entered a pathetic world.

Not long after she married Dajun, Dajun said that he always had chest tightness and chest pain, and sometimes coughed, and went to see Dr. Wang, saying that it might be a cold, and later, he coughed badly and went to the hospital for examination, but the doctor said that it was a respiratory infection caused by a cold, and he took medicine a few times and it was light, so he delayed the illness until he had a serious illness, it was too late, and it was really a bolt from the blue.

However, in several physical examinations, the most fatal disease was not detected, but they found that the army lacked a proper thing in a man, and when they did further examination, they went to the provincial hospital for a specialist, and the doctor concluded on the spot that he was suffering from congenital infertility, which was another bolt from the blue.

Later, she found out that Dajun had already had a deep relationship with his little grandson Lijuan before dating her, although she was very angry at the time and thought that Dajun had deceived her, but in order to keep this family, keep their so-called love, and also for her own selfish interests, she naively obeyed her mother-in-law's arrangement, not only forgave Dajun and Lijuan, but also trapped herself, and she couldn't extricate herself from it.

Moreover, her strong selfishness~ desire occupied her innocent soul, thinking that Liu Haitao's rhetoric was the truest confession to herself, but she never expected that Liu Haitao would meet Yang Cuihua twice behind her back, and had already made a marriage contract, which was the most intolerable thing for her. But she had nothing to do, so she buried her grievances deep in her heart.

In addition, she is obedient to her mother-in-law, and she has never doubted everything her mother-in-law says or does. But what happens in the end? The mother-in-law obviously knew that she was good with Liu Haitao, and she was also sure that she was pregnant with Liu Haitao's seed, but she hid it from her and repeatedly told Liu Haitao that her daughter-in-law was protecting the media, and never cared about her feelings and thoughts, the more she thought about it, the more she didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in her mother-in-law's gourd? Could it be that her mother-in-law is also cheating on her, intentionally or unintentionally?

In short, she felt that everyone was cheating on herself, and even laughing at herself. It was only then that she realized a little more clearly that it was her kindness and weakness, ignorance and ignorance that caused today's irreparable disaster, and she hated herself and regretted not believing the sweet words of others at the beginning. Therefore, she poured out her great grievances and sorrows into endless crying......

People don't know and understand Peach Blossom's mood at this time, but they are helpless to cry endlessly at her, even Aunt Sun shook her head, and said to everyone with tears in her eyes: "Don't persuade everyone, let Peach Blossom cry, let her spit out all the words in her heart, so maybe she will feel better." Cry, child. ”

Although her mother-in-law Liu Qiaoxian felt sorry for Peach Blossom and the child in her belly, there was no reason or way to stop her grief or crying for the army at this moment. For the unfortunate death of her son, as a mother, Liu Qiaoxian deeply felt the heart-rending pain, although she felt that the sky was about to fall, but in order not to make the peach blossom more sad, she forced her tears into her stomach, she never accepted her fate, but to this point today, she has no complaints. She listened to Peach Blossom crying bitterly, and even she almost collapsed, let alone persuade Peach Blossom again?

At noon, Peach Blossom's parents, younger brother and mother's family all arrived, as well as her uncle Qin Dachuan also came. This time, Mother-in-law, Aunt Sun and everyone present finally breathed a sigh of relief, and people were talking about it, and someone could finally persuade Peach Blossom.

The mother-in-law and father-in-law stood up to greet the in-laws and greeted each other. Aunt Sun leaned into Peach Blossom's ear and said, "Peach Blossom Shut up, your mother is here." ”

Peach Blossom really stopped crying, she opened her eyes that were hazy from crying, and looked at her mother helplessly. Mother Qin wiped her daughter's tears with her sleeves in distress, and she couldn't help but cry.

The army is still the youngest son. There is a custom here that parents who are still alive are considered young children, and they are not allowed to rest for three days after death, and they are not allowed to stay for more than 12 o'clock at noon on the day of the funeral. Therefore, the management of the funeral was the original production captain Chang Danian, who called the army and Peach Blossom's parents and Peach Blossom's uncle Qin Dachuan together to discuss the funeral with them. Seeing that noon had passed, I had to wait until tomorrow morning to go out for the funeral.

Coincidentally, after lunch, Sun Lijuan hurried back when she heard the news, and her eyes still had traces of crying. She didn't say hello to anyone, silently burned some paper money in front of the army spirit, and then came to Peach Blossom and knelt with Peach Blossom. People watched this move with solemn expressions, and no one squeaked, except for Li Yanfang, who hid in the back room with a "snort" in her nose.

Peach Blossom glanced at Lijuan with tears in her eyes and asked, "Sister Lijuan, you are back, he ...... the army"

"I know it all." She took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears for Peach Blossom while persuading: "You also have to save your body, you have to hold on, if you collapse, what will these old people do?" We have to think more about the living. ”

Peach Blossom knew what Lijuan meant, and she nodded silently. At this time, Xiaobao came in through the crack in the crowd, and when he saw his mother, he pounced on him, and called out in a milky voice: "Mom! ”

Lijuan saw the filial piety clothes her son was wearing at a glance, and at this moment, she couldn't bear the sadness in her heart anymore, so she hugged her son and cried bitterly......

This time it was Peach Blossom's turn to persuade Lijuan, and they both tacitly understood each other's feelings. Son Xiaobao doesn't know why his mother is crying? And he cried so sadly, he had seen his godmother's scary cry, and when he saw his mother's tears falling down in pairs, he was so frightened that he cried too.

Shang Meiying felt sorry for her grandson, and quickly hugged him and coaxed him hard, Liu Qiaoxian also came over to persuade Lijuan, but was stopped by Shang Meiying, in fact, they both knew what was going on, she whispered: "Let her cry, cry and cry more happily." ”

In the evening, Peach Blossom's parents didn't leave, but just sent away their uncle Qin Dachuan, who left the funeral fee of 500 yuan before leaving, and told him to handle the funeral frugally.

Strange to say, there was no power outage tonight, and the house was brightly lit inside and outside. Later, I learned that this was the electricity that Qin Dachuan specially sent to the substation to ask for.

The wind is blowing, the clouds are full of stars, the people in the yard have gone home, Xiaobao was also coaxed to sleep by his grandmother and concubine, in addition to Peach Blossom and Lijuan in front of the spirit, there are only the old people on both sides and Lijuan's father, as well as Chang Danian, who is in charge, they sit on the kang in the inner room and chatter, without paying attention to the change of the weather.

Liu Haitao has been busy in the yard, and when he saw that the weather was bad, he covered all the food and damp items he was afraid of and pressed the plastic sheet.

Late at night, a trace of coolness rushed to their faces, Peach Blossom and Lijuan couldn't help but shiver, they looked out through the crack in the door, and snowflakes were floating in the yard. Peach Blossom went into the house and brought two cotton clothes, she and Lijuan put them on their bodies, Peach Blossom said: "Sister Lijuan, it's so cold, you go back, or Xiaobao will make trouble looking for her mother." ”

"It's okay, he won't make trouble if he has a grandmother, this kid already knows something." Lijuan said, turned her head to look at the army lying on the bed coldly, and said to Peach Blossom with a melancholy face: "Just let me keep him for the last night, woo woo woo ......"

Peach Blossom nodded in agreement, she turned around and brought a thick quilt from the back room, and the two of them snuggled tightly in the quilt.

Liu Haitao brought a dustpan of briquettes from the outside and stuffed them into the coal fire, and the old flames suddenly appeared in the stove, which made the room feel a warm warmth all of a sudden.

In the early morning, the sky was scattered with white snowflakes, laying a layer of crystal white silver carpet on the ground, perhaps it was God's special mercy and arrangement, a night of heavy snow, covering the vast wilderness, to the houses, trees with jade silk and silver thread woven into plain clothes, but also to this small village on the beautiful plain clothed with white velvet filial piety. It is said that the scenery after the snow is beautiful, but the sad people have no intention of appreciating it.

Although the snow was still falling, the funeral was carried out as usual, and after discussion, the godson Xiaobao was held by Sun Lijuan in front of him to lead the way. I only heard Chang Danian's voice: "Get up!" The sound of firecrackers rang out, and the people carried the coffins of the army out of the village, and he could no longer hear his daughter-in-law and mother howling hoarsely behind him.

The whole village watched this scene, and many shed tears of sympathy, and people bustled and walked through the snow to see off the army until it was reached to his grave.

Sun Lijuan guided Xiaobao and Godmother to kneel in front of Godfather's grave together, he still didn't know what he was doing, he only knew that his mother and godmother were crying, and his godmother and grandmother were also crying, and his tender little face was red from the cold, maybe he was scared, he had never seen such a scene.

At this time, the sky gradually cleared, and the cold winter was still cold and windy, with the sound of "sizzle" wailing, like a piercing knife attacking people, and a burst of whistling brought people into a state of melancholy and sadness.

Chang Danian looked at the sky, such weather is easy to freeze people, he glanced at Peach Blossom and Aunt Liu again, and urged people to hurry up on the grave of the army, and burned the house and some paper money for the army, and then he came to Aunt Liu and Peach Blossom and said: "Okay, okay, the army has entered the earth, you should also go home." ”
