Rong Peng's ashes were sent back by the squadron leader of the fire brigade, and when he arrived in Xiangyun Town, it was already dark. The old lady Qiuhua received a call at noon, and she didn't eat, so she moved a stool, sat at the door with Liao Zhaodi and waited, and waited for an afternoon, and someone came.

Squadron leader Qu Hui got out of the car with the urn, he didn't get a drop of water all day, his body was shaking, but the urn in his hand was held steadily.

"Grandma Rong, brother and sister......" he walked over and knelt down on his legs, "Rong Peng...... He went for me. ”

The old lady stood up with her body propped up, walked over and asked, "Have you had dinner?" ”

Qu Hui's emotions that he had endured all the way finally broke out, and the man who was more than one meter eight sat on the ground, breaking down and crying. One of his twin sons has not yet been named, and the day before yesterday he joked with Rong Peng that they would leave one for him to name.

"The rice in the pot is still warm, let's go eat first." After the old lady finished speaking, she reached out and touched the urn, she leaned over and asked, "Peng, have you seen your parents?" ”

After asking, she withdrew her hand tremblingly, her body shook, and the person leaned back.

Liao Zhaodi shouted: "Grandma! ”

The old lady fell ill like this, she was groggy, and she kept shouting Peng, Peng, Peng......

The funeral was organized by Liao Zhaodi, she didn't cry from beginning to end, she ate when she should eat, drank when she should drink, locked the door alone when she should sleep, and squinted in the room for a while, without a single tear.

Some people with broken mouths said that the granddaughter-in-law of Mrs. Qiuhua's family is hard-hearted, young, only in her early twenties, and it is estimated that she will run back to her parents' house in a few days, and the unborn child will probably not see the sky.

There are also neighbors who go to persuade you: "Girl, don't bear it, cry if you want to." ”

She just shook her head and said she didn't matter.

It didn't matter, it was her husband who didn't come back in the fire, the father of her children.

When the condolences were dispersed, she asked the distant relatives of the vigil to rest for a while, sat in front of the coffin by herself, burned paper alone, wiped photos alone, and chattered alone: "Brother Peng, don't worry about the family, I will take care of grandma and take care of our baby." ”

She touched the coffin and muttered to herself.

"You always said before that I followed you to repay your kindness."

Rong Peng was burned by the fire in order to save her, she was actually a very timid person, she was bold once in her life, and she relied on him in vain, and became his girlfriend.

There was one more thing she hadn't told him.

"I saw you before you saved me."

At that time, Rong Peng's face was not injured, he was very sunny and handsome.

"You don't remember, in June last year, you helped an old man find a cat at the entrance of Sanli Hutong in Nancheng, and you came to my house to ask for a glass of water, and asked me if I could add ice."

He was also wearing the same orange firefighting suit.

"You don't know how silly you laughed."

She laughed as she spoke, tears rolling down her cheeks, and she wiped them away: "When our baby grows up, I'll tell him that his dad is a very good firefighter." She put one hand on her lower abdomen and caressed the coffin with the other, "Brother Peng, don't blame me, I won't let our children be firefighters anymore." ”

She has already given her husband to the people, and let her be selfish for once, and the child will not be given.

"Brother Peng."

"Brother Peng."

“……”

She stood in front of the mourning hall, screaming one after another, and she didn't cry bitterly, she couldn't cry, she still had a child in her womb, and the child was too young for her to cry.

At about ten o'clock in the evening, someone knocked on the door of Li Yin'e's house, and she was about to sleep.

Xu Tanxi hasn't gone upstairs yet.

"Who's so late?" Li Yin'e waved her hand and motioned for Xu Tanxi to go upstairs, "You go to sleep first, I'll go see who it is." ”

She put on a dress and went to open the door, it was Liao Zhaodi who came.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you here so late? Can I help you? ”

Liao Zhaodi wore filial piety on his head and white filial piety clothes on his body, she was young, and with Rong Peng's seniority, she called Sister Xu Tanxi: "Sister Xu, is she there?" ”

"Yes." Li Yin'e turned around and shouted, "Xiao Xu, Xiaoxiao is coming to you." ”

Xu Tanxi went to make her a cup of hot tea, adding honey and red dates.

It was very cold at night, Xu Tanxi put a thick cushion on the chair, asked Liao Zhaodi to sit down, and gave her a blanket to cover her feet: "This is fruit tea, pregnant women can also drink it, you drink a little to warm up." ”

Brother Liao Zhaodi drank half a cup, and his mood looked quite calm: "I heard my grandmother say that you can embroider." ”

"Well, I can embroider."

She put the cup down and pleaded, "Sister Xu, can you embroider a hijab for me?" The light shone on her face, her skin was a little dark, she was very young, only twenty years old, just reached the legal age for marriage, "It doesn't have to be complicated, just embroider it." ”

Xu Tanxi agreed: "Okay." ”

After Liao Zhaodi left, Rong Li came over.

Li Yin'e made room for them with interest: "You two talk slowly, I'll go to sleep first." ”

Li Yin'e's bedroom was on the first floor, and Xu Tanxi was afraid of arguing with her, so she pulled Rong Li upstairs. Her room was the opposite of Rong Li's, facing east, and during the day, the sun leaked through a window, and at night, the moon could also leak in a window. There is an embroidered shelf next to the window, and next to it is a bookcase. There are not many furnishings in the house, but they are all exquisite, the carpets and bed sheets are warm colors, she should like the Gentleman's Orchid very much, and many personal objects are embroidered with patterns.

Xu Tanxi pushed the only chair in the room for him to sit on: "Why did you come here so late?" ”

He sat down and pulled her to his side: "I don't worry about you. ”

The funeral in the village will be very big, music will be played at night, and people will be invited to cry and mourn, she is not from the town, she should not have seen it before, Rong Li is worried that she will be afraid.

"I have nothing to worry about."

The window was not closed tightly, Xu Tanxi went to close the window.

Rong Li got up and followed her: "I'm afraid you're cranky." ”

He reached over, closed the window for her, wrapped his arms around her waist, and took her into his arms, holding her carefully.

Xu Tanxi felt that he was a bit of a soldier, as if he regarded her as a fragile product, how could she be so fragile, and looked up at him: "I didn't think about it, but the world is impermanent, and I feel a little emotional." ”

Rong Li didn't speak, hugged her, in short, he really wanted to hide her, it was so dangerous in the world, he didn't feel at ease to put her anywhere.

"When Rong Peng left, I met him in the alley." Xu Tanxi said, "He seems to have seen me before, and he said that he would come back and tell me." ”

"I've probably seen it in Nancheng."

Xu Tanxi was not impressed.

"Nothing."

"Hmm."

Rong Li leaned on her shoulder, rubbing his face against her hair, and he whispered, "I will live a long time, and I won't let you keep a vigil for me." ”

There was no moonlight outside, and the sky was gloomy.

In the middle of the night, Li Yin'e got up conveniently, and saw that the lights in the yard were on, and there seemed to be a figure at the door. ”

The figure at the door moved, and turned around.

"Xiao Xu?" Li Yin'e suspected that she was dazzled, and walked closer, "What are you doing squatting there?" Why don't you sleep yet? ”

She was wearing pajamas, squatting next to the courtyard gate, and without speaking, she pushed open the door and walked out.

"Xiao Xu."

"Xiao Xu."

Li Yin'e shouted twice, but she didn't agree.

Outside, dogs barked.

"Wang!"

"Wow!"

Figures in pajamas wandered back and forth, her gaze blank.

"Wang!"

"Wow!"

She froze suddenly, walked over to the kennel, and meowed.

In the middle of the night, the cold wind blows.

The next day, the wind was light and the sun was warm.

Xu Tanxi washed upstairs and went downstairs after getting dressed.

"Morning, Aunt Li."

"Early." Li Yin'e swept the leaves in the yard and asked, "Xiao Xu, what did you do when you went out last night?" ”

She said, "I didn't go out." ”

How could it be, Li Yin'e saw it: "About two o'clock in the morning, I saw you go out in your pajamas." ”

Xu Tanxi frowned and thought for a moment: "I was embroidering Xiaoxiao's head last night, and I slept for a while in the middle, but I never went out." ”

That's weird.

Li Yin'e scratched her head: "Could it be that I'm dazzled?" She was confused, "Or am I dreaming?" Or...... Evil?

Xu Tanxi also looked confused.

Forget it, eighty percent of it is a dream. Li Yin'e asked her, "How are you embroidering your hijab?" ”

Xu Tanxi said: "It's almost embroidered." ”
