Lin Hanmei followed the third cousin and they passed by the living room, and the third cousin said to the eldest uncle, "Lin Hanmei is here." The eldest uncle glanced at Lin Hanmei and said loudly: "Lin Hanmei is here!" Lin Hanmei said, "Well, uncle." Lin Hanmei found that her eldest uncle had lost some weight, seemed to cry a lot, and his eyes were a little swollen.

Lin Hanmei and her third cousin went to Westinghouse, and the third cousin said to Lin Hanmei: "Today is your aunt's birthday, I want to cut some paper for your aunt to burn." The third cousin cut the paper into four squares as she spoke, and then took a seal and dipped it in ink and printed it on the paper, and the eldest cousin helped on the side.

The eldest uncle played poker with the men for a while and left, and the third cousin said that he went to work.

At noon, the eldest cousin came to her aunt's house for dinner, and the third cousin called to tell her that Lin Hanmei was here. The eldest cousin saw Lin Hanmei and said, "Hanmei is here." Lin Hanmei nodded and said, "Well, eldest sister." The third cousin said, "Lin Hanmei came in the morning." The eldest cousin said, "I asked her to come." Lin Hanmei looked at the expressions of her eldest cousin and third cousin a little lonely. The eldest cousin is often distracted when she eats with a bowl of rice, and she doesn't know what she is thinking. There was a black spot in her rice, and she wanted to pick it out with chopsticks, but she picked out a small ball of rice and put it on the table. Her grandfather said, "Why did you throw away so much food?" She couldn't help frowning and said, "Did I do it on purpose?" Her grandfather smiled and stopped talking.

After eating, the eldest cousin and the third cousin went to work in the afternoon, and asked Lin Hanmei to stay at the aunt's house, saying that they would come at night. Now there are very few aunts' families, the eldest cousin and they went back, the little cousin and they lived upstairs temporarily, and only Lin Hanmei and the uncle and the eldest cousin of the uncle's family were left at home in the afternoon, which seemed very deserted.

Only the third cousin came in the evening, and the eldest cousin didn't come because she seemed to have something. After dinner, when it was dark, the third cousin was going to burn paper for her aunt outside the gate, so that Lin Hanmei could watch the house at home.

After Lin Hanmei sat in the room for a while, the phone rang, and Lin Hanmei picked it up and said, "Hey? The other person asked, "What about them?" Lin Hanmei heard that it was her uncle, so she said, "Uncle, they said that today is my aunt's birthday, and they went out to burn paper for my aunt." The eldest uncle hung up the phone with a "snap".

The next day, the eldest cousin asked Lin Hanmei how many days off she had, and Lin Hanmei said thirteen days. The eldest cousin said, "If you leave it for so many days, then stay here." Lin Hanmei said, "Yes." ”

Because in another seven or eight days, the aunt will burn three phases, and the third cousin will cut paper when they are free, Lin Hanmei helped take a seal dipped in ink and print it on it, and the print is the amount of money.

By Friday night, the great uncle had returned. Seeing that Lin Hanmei was still at his house, he asked, "You don't read it anymore?" Lin Hanmei said: "Nian, it's a holiday." The eldest uncle said, "Why do you have so many days off?" Lin Hanmei said: "Farm leave. "Because the eldest uncle is coming back, the little cousin is also coming back early. After listening to it, he said: "The countryside is really good, and there are farm holidays." ”

After dinner in the evening, Lin Hanmei stayed in the back room where she lived before, and her eldest cousin and third cousin accompanied her eldest uncle in the front room. After a while, the third cousin came to the back room and said to Lin Hanmei, "Your eldest uncle summoned you to stay in the front room for a while." So Lin Hanmei and her third cousin went to the front room.

The eldest uncle took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to Lin Hanmei and said, "Lin Hanmei, give you a hundred yuan." Lin Hanmei cried and said, "Uncle, I don't want it." The eldest uncle said to Lin Hanmei in a coaxing tone: "Don't cry, take it!" Lin Hanmei took it, but she still cried. The main thing is that I am very moved, and I also miss my aunt. The eldest uncle told Lin Hanmei to be brave and not to wilt because she didn't have a mother. is to make Lin Hanmei lively, don't be so wilting.

The third cousin said, "I have a white sweater, I'll bring it to you tomorrow." The eldest uncle said, "Yes, you have some clothes for her." The eldest cousin said, "I can't wear it, so let her third sister find her some." The third cousin said, "Okay! "Because the eldest cousin is taller.

The next day, the aunt, grandmother and uncle came to the aunt's house, and they came to burn the third phase for the aunt. Grandma went to my uncle's house, and my uncle also took my grandma home by the way. The uncle saw Lin Hanmei and asked her why she came, and Lin Hanmei said that she was here. The old man asked, "Is it okay to do it?" Lin Hanmei said: "It's easy to do." ”

At dinner that night, the eldest uncle said: "I gave Lin Hanmei a hundred yuan yesterday to let her study hard, if she doesn't study hard, I won't give it to her." "Everyone didn't say anything at the time. Afterwards, the eldest aunt said to Lin Hanmei: "Your eldest uncle is really good, your aunt is gone, and I will give you a hundred yuan." Tomorrow my aunt will measure you and go back to make you a pair of cotton pants. "My aunt is a tailor.

On this day, my uncle's sister also came to my aunt's house and said to my aunt, "My sister-in-law is here." Then he said: "Lin Hanmei is also here, why are you here?" Lin Hanmei said: "School registration." She asked, "When are you leaving?" Lin Hanmei scolded her and said, "I'll leave when I'm done." The eldest cousin smiled when she heard what Lin Hanmei said.

On the next day, it was the day when the aunt burned the third issue, Lin Hanmei put on the black coat that her third cousin brought her, and the eldest uncle put on sunglasses. After breakfast, everyone took the car to the crematorium, because the aunt's ashes were still stored there.

When I arrived at the crematorium, my eldest cousin couldn't help but shed tears when she took her aunt's ashes. The eldest cousin held the ashes of the aunt, and everyone followed her to the courtyard behind the crematorium, put the urn against the wall in the yard, and began to burn paper money for the aunt, and people began to cry. The eldest cousin secretly glanced at Lin Hanmei while crying, and Lin Hanmei remembered her aunt's kindness to herself, and she was also crying silently. Among them, the most serious crying was the eldest aunt, everyone was crying silently, only she was crying "wow". Grandma persuaded her while crying.

When the paper was burned, the ashes of the aunt were stored in the crematorium, and the people returned to the aunt's house.

After returning to her aunt's house, the third cousin couldn't help but be sad and hid in the back room to cry, and the third cousin-in-law persuaded her. After a while, the eldest uncle shouted to pour water, and the third cousin agreed, wiped her tears, and came out of the back room to pour water.

The eldest cousin pointed to the sofa in the aunt's room and said to the eldest aunt, "Auntie, this sofa is for you." The eldest aunt said, "I don't want it." The eldest cousin said, "You want it." The eldest cousin said that he would give the sofa in the living room to the second uncle's house. The eldest uncle said, "What's the use of not giving it to him?" The eldest cousin said, "Give it to my second uncle." The eldest uncle shouted angrily, "Then why didn't you come today?" The eldest cousin and the third cousin persuaded him a few words, but he was silent. The second uncle's house is in the county, so I don't know why I didn't come.

The eldest aunt measured Lin Hanmei's size with a rope, and said that she would make a pair of cotton pants for her when she went back.
