This day is the day when Dong Sulan got married.

In the morning, the wind did not stop, and when the auspicious time was approaching, it rained as big as a little thumb. The villagers who were originally surrounded outside Dong Sulan's house also dispersed and found a place to shelter from the rain.

The courtyard was deserted, and the hall was also deserted, only the aunt of the Niu family, who was good friends with Dong Sulan on weekdays, was by her side, and when she saw the scene outside, she couldn't help but pout. "These people just can't see you."

"There are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door." Dong Sulan also looked up and glanced out: "Besides, I am still a newly married widow, and it is normal for others to talk about it." ”

"This widow's remarriage is not unheard of in our town." The aunt of the Niu family closed the door: "Isn't the daughter of the old Wang family in the west of the town also widowed and remarried, just because she didn't marry well, these people didn't even have the heart to join in the fun." They are jealous of you, and they are jealous that although you are widowed, you have remarried and found a better family. ”

"Perhaps, they are not like what you said, auntie." Dong Sulan said, touching her belly. "If I have no choice, I'd rather guard Ah Niu and guard this yard for the rest of my life."

"What a stupid thing to say!" The aunt of the Niu family sighed: "Speaking of which, Ah Niu, this child also grew up under my watch." As for people, they are down-to-earth and good to their neighbors. His father and mother died early, and even this yard was covered by his arms. finally became a family and married such a virtuous and capable daughter-in-law as you, and the result was ...... Ay! It's all fate, it's all the life of Ah Niu's child. ”

It's okay if the aunt of the Niu family doesn't say it, but when she says that Dong Sulan's two eye sockets are dyed red.

Her deceased husband's name was Dong Yong, who was helpless because of the early death of his parents, so he herded cattle and raised cattle in the town. After a long time, everyone no longer called his name Dong Yong, but called him Ah Niu, Dong Ah Niu.

Dong Aniu herded cattle until he was thirteen years old, and because he was loyal and honest, he was recommended by the master to go to the dart game in the town. Although it is a dart game, it is not a dart master, but a job of helping people carry and press boxes. He has a lot of strength, but he doesn't earn as much as a dart master, but Dong Aniu is content and has been working in the dart game for ten years. grew up to the age of twenty-three, and was introduced to marry Dong Sulan.

Dong Sulan's family background is also not good, her father is mute, her mother is blind, although she was born beautiful, no one wants to be dragged down. After this back and forth, it grew to eighteen. Dong Aniu does not dislike her father and mother is disabled and a drag, Dong Sulan is also not afraid of following Dong Aniu to endure hardships, the two hit it off at first sight, complained to each other, and they were also very affectionate after getting married.

Soon after getting married, Dong Aniu followed the dart master out to escort the darts, and this time it was more than half a year. Dong Sulan was worried that she would have to run to the dart game four or five times a day. It wasn't until three months ago that a dart master of the dart bureau returned to the town in rags, and everyone knew that An Lushan had rebelled, and there was chaos outside, and there was no peace everywhere. They had thought that they would go back to town and stay there after the trip. This place is neither close to the mountains nor the sea, and the wars of all dynasties have never affected it, so it can be regarded as a blessed place. I thought that on the way back, I met a robber. Dong Sulan's newlywed husband Dong Aniu was hacked to death on the spot, and the rest of the dart masters were either hacked to death or caught in the cottage.

The dart master reluctantly returned to the town by begging all the way, but Dong Aniu never came back. Hearing the bad news, Dong Sulan's eyes immediately darkened, and she fainted, but fortunately, the aunt of the Niu family next door rushed over when she heard the news and comforted her many times, so that she dispelled the idea of seeking death. In addition, the dart bureau sent Dong Aniu's pension money over, and Dong Sulan's days were supported day by day.

A month ago, she went to burn paper money for Dong Aniu's clothes and mounds. I don't know if it's because she misses her deceased husband too much, or because she is tired from walking on the mountain road, not long after burning the paper money, she fell asleep while leaning on his tombstone while talking to Dong Aniu. When I slept in the middle of nowhere, I suddenly heard a man's cry. When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a dark cave. Following the cry, I saw a pile of firewood burning, and a few paper coins were scattered around the firewood. A man with a very similar body shape to her husband sat by the firewood with his back to her.

He said he had received the money that Dong Sulan had given him.

He said that he was sorry for Dong Sulan, and he knew that he would make her widowed, and he would not have married her in the first place.

He also said that she should not be afraid, that he spoke differently because of an injury to his throat.

He added that he had come back just to see her.

Dong Sulan, who was still a little scared, cried directly because of his words. She stood behind him with tears in her eyes, saying that she was a member of the Dong family in life and a ghost of the Dong family in death, even if Ah Niu became a ghost, she was still her husband.

The man turned around and hugged her by the hand. She wanted to struggle, but she was afraid of breaking his heart, so she let him.

From beginning to end, she didn't see his face clearly.

Because he said that his face was also cut by a knife, he didn't want to scare Dong Sulan.

It's strange to say that when Dong Sulan woke up again, she found that she was still leaning on Dong Aniu's tombstone, and for those things that just happened, she naturally understood it as a dream meeting. In order to be able to see her husband every day, Dong Sulan went up the mountain every day to burn paper. As soon as the paper money was burned, she would fall into a coma, and then go to the cave in her dream to meet her husband, and then wake up from the tombstone. Because the matter was too secretive, Dong Sulan didn't even tell the aunt of the Niu family, and the people in the town only thought that she missed her deceased husband, and never had any suspicions about her actions of going up the mountain every day, but felt that she was the kind of woman who valued love and righteousness.

Time flickered, and more than half a month passed, and she had nausea and anorexia one after another. At first, she thought she was sick, and she was reluctant to go to the hospital for treatment, so she found a visiting Tulangzhong. A pulse, only to know that it is he who has joy. This child must be her and Dong Aniu's, but people are intimate with ghosts, can they also have children? Dong Sulan didn't dare to say, let alone ask, she knew very well how much turmoil a widow suddenly became pregnant would cause in this isolated town.

Just when she was hesitating, the matchmaker who had originally been a matchmaker for her came to the door again, saying that she was entrusted by Dong Aniu to choose a new family for her. This family is also a head and face in the town. Although the man is more than ten years older than her, he looks much younger than his actual age. The man originally had a wife, but he died of illness a while ago, and the youngest child was only a few years old, and it was the time when he needed his mother to take care of him. She also made many matches, and people were willing to find Dong Sulan to fill the house.

This time, everyone in the town knows that Dong Sulan has a gentle temperament, and she will not be too harsh on the children before the man. In the second place, the man who wants to continue the string has some old friendship with their family Dong Aniu, and is willing to treat him to take care of Dong Sulan. The man also said that as long as Dong Sulan marries him, he will treat her father and mother as well as Dong Aniu, and will not prevent her from going to pay tribute to her deceased husband every New Year's holiday.

Dong Sulan wanted to refuse, but her belly was getting bigger day by day, and she couldn't hide it. After thinking about it, she could only agree to this family business.

A few days ago, I ran up the mountain day by day to cry and sacrifice my deceased husband, and then I was about to fill the house and re-enter the cabinet, not to mention that those people in the town who didn't know the inside story, that is, Dong Sulan herself, felt that this thing was a little inappropriate. Human words are terrifying, and she can only swallow all the gossip she hears.

Here, Dong Sulan was reminiscing about the past, and over there, the door of the hall was banged.

"Who, don't you know that Su Lan is going out today? Knock what knock, pound what beat, want to see the excitement, go to the door, want to say right and wrong, and close your mouth today. You all know my aunt's temper, but don't let me rush to your door with a kitchen knife. ”

"Grandma is me." As soon as the Niu family's aunt finished speaking, a soft and crisp voice came from outside the door. "My mother asked me to give a gift to the Dong family's sister-in-law."

"It's wishful, right?" Hearing the voice, the voice of the Niu family's aunt softened instantly: "You wait, grandma will open the door for you." ”

The door is open.

There was a little girl in pink standing outside the door, who was the little girl of the Xing family who lived on the street in front of Dong's house.

The little girl's surname is Xing, and her name is Ruyi. Her mother is the aunt with a temper as hot as the aunt of the Niu family. Why is it called Aunt Sauce, it is because Aunt Sauce's family is an ancestral craft of making sauce, and the people in this town, no matter how old or young, can't lack their mouthful.

In terms of appearance alone, this Aunt Sauce is quite beautiful because of her eyes, but this little girl, President Te, except for those autumn water-like apricot eyes who followed Aunt Sauce, the rest followed her scholarly father.

This little girl is not only good-looking, but also has a sweet mouth, no matter if she knows or not, she can chat casually, and she can also coax people to buy her sauce happily. So, all the men and women in this town, young and old, and their temperaments, like her and love to spoil her.

Seeing Xing Ruyi enter the door, the aunt of the Niu family hurriedly squatted down, looked at her little face and asked, "What gift did your mother let you give?" ”

"A brocade, or during the Chinese New Year, my father asked someone to bring it back from outside." Xing Ruyi gently pushed the aunt of the Niu family, turned around and returned to the door, and brought in a pomegranate-red brocade. "There is also a jar of soybean sauce, and the taste is adjusted according to the taste that the sister-in-law of the Dong family likes."

Dong Sulan also stood up, she first touched the brocade, and then hugged the jar: "This bean sauce, sister-in-law accepted it, Ruyi, thank you on my behalf." As for this brocade, my sister-in-law also accepted it, but my sister-in-law wants to pass it on to you. ”

After speaking, Dong Sulan reached out and pinched Xing Ruyi's cheek: "With such a bright color, in our entire town, you can dress well." ”
