Chapter 19: Preparing for the Aftermath
"Don't think about it, this is strange, go back to sleep first, don't you say all about patriotism, even Li Guofeng has already left, you go back to sleep, I'll be here to guard, don't worry, they still owe me favors." Grandpa coaxed grandma back to the house, and the oil lamp, which was usually reluctant to be reluctant for a while, burned all night.
Early the next morning, He Xiaoyu still didn't get better, but it got more serious, grandpa called my dad out and asked, "Patriotic, what did you see last night?" ”
Uncle Guofeng lay on Aunt Xiaoyu's body, and then he left. Isn't Uncle Guofeng very bad, bullying Aunt Xiaoyu, doesn't it hurt to press it? "My dad was young and didn't understand anything.
Grandpa hurriedly covered his father's mouth and said, "No one can mention this matter, otherwise Lao Tzu will beat you to death, do you hear?!" After explaining to my father, my grandfather didn't eat, so he trotted all the way to He Zhenren's cowshed, and told He Zhenren about it breathlessly.
Speaking of which, you may not know who Li Guofeng my father said he saw, of course, most people have also guessed that Li Guozhong Li Guofeng, these are the brothers, and they are the youngest son of the dead Li Daring. What my dad found out about this moment instantly solved all the mysteries that had plagued my grandfather's heart in the past few days!
A very normal little girl, why does she have spring dreams every day? Why is He Xiaoyu so afraid to go to Xiu'e's house? After Grandpa figured it out, he patted his thigh and said: "He Shenxian, I thought that this little girl peeping in the middle of the night was that I fell in love with my bad old man, it turned out that she was given that by Li Guofeng in a dream, I was afraid to find me, Ma Laobian told me yesterday that this girl is almost dead, and she is haunted by a ghost every day, and the essence of the living is sucked away by the dead, can it be true?" Isn't Song Xiaoguang all empty? ”
At the moment, grandpa is even more distressed about this little girl, scared like that, and is raped every day, but he can't tell anyone about this, who the hell said that the girl in the city is slutty, thanks to this girl's strength, replaced by a little girl in the countryside, she has long been scared stupid and has become a stupid girl like Liu Laogen's orchid.
Grandpa's mood at this time was very complicated, in addition to distress and loss, of course, there was relief, because he was worried about how he would deal with him as the child's father if he was really interested in him.
He Zhenren looked at his grandfather's anxious expression, dropped the coarse material in his hand (the broken grass that was fed to the cows) and said to my grandfather: "This matter really can't be slowed down, let's go, go and see." ”
After grandpa and He Zhenren came out of the cowshed, they just met the villagers who got up in the morning to work, everyone is now really surprised that grandpa and this feudal remnant He Zhenren came together, there is no impermeable wall in this world, in fact, in secret, everyone also knows that He Zhenren has helped grandpa deal with a lot of things recently, before it was dark, everyone was still hanging out of the door, now as long as you look at the street of the lock village in a dark warehouse, there are definitely not many people, except for a few bold people who are closed and sleep with the lights out, Who doesn't know that Suotou Village has really not been peaceful recently? Not only were they surprised, they felt that there were still jokes to watch, and they followed their grandfather to the door of the house and were scolded by their grandfather for not leaving, shouting: "Captain, we are worried about your safety." ”
Grandpa ignored them, and took He Zhenren into the house, at that time I was hanging a portrait of Chairman Mao in my house, and when I saw the portrait, He Zhenren said: "It seems that I was not wrong before, Li Daring and his wife are definitely going to become a climate, and the Tiangang spirit of the portrait can't suppress them, otherwise Li Guofeng will definitely not be able to enter the courtyard." ”
When He Zhenren arrived in the house, grandma was too frightened to enter the house at this time, and Li Guofeng, who was pestering He Xiaoyu, seemed to know invisibly that He Zhenren was coming, like a demonstration, He Xiaoyu, who had been getting better, trembled all over her body at this time, and was stunned that there was no human color.
He Zhenren grabbed He Xiaoyu's wrist, and as soon as he grabbed it, his face changed, and he beckoned to my grandfather: "Gengchen, no, it's late, this girl can't be saved, and there is no yang energy on her body." ”
"So, what about that?" Grandpa almost knelt down for He Zhenren in a hurry, the last educated youth Zheng Wenyuan almost died, and it was finally solved, this little girl had an accident again, grandpa was worried and guilty in his heart, worried that things would make him suffer, and he felt sorry for He Xiaoyu from the heart, this girl peeping at herself for a few days, she must have been scared that she needed a man to give her courage, why didn't she help her?
"He Shenxian, you must save her!" Grandpa thought of this, and with a plop, he knelt down and kowtowed to He Zhenren a few times.
He Zhenren frowned, didn't speak, kept pinching his fingers over there, and after a long time, he shook his head and said: "There's really no way, more minister, you remember, Master Li Daring, it's not a problem that I can't provoke, since ancient times, why do most of them do wrongs?" Everyone says that the grievances of the unjust ghosts are so difficult to deal with, but in fact, it is not, Yang has Yang Law, Yin has Yin rules, and those who die unjustly, they have not finished their yang life, and Yin Si does not care, so isn't it the evil side? Master Li Daring, I thought that they inherited your favor from the last time, and for the sake of the face of the surviving people, they would go to reincarnate with peace of mind when the yang life of the underworld was exhausted, who knew that they would make trouble? ”
"Is there really nothing you can do about them? Didn't you say last time that you can kill ghosts? Grandpa prayed.
"It's late, it's late, it's become the climate, and it really can't be cut off, but even more ministers, don't think too much about this matter, this He Xiaoyu died of illness, isn't Ma Lao biased to be a witness for you? Let's just say that this girl is weak, and she came here to die of wind and cold, and she doesn't have any responsibility for you, right? He Zhenren sighed.
"That's what I said, but this girl is a human life, how can I watch her die at such a young age?" Grandpa said.
He Zhenren seemed to be really powerless, shook his head and left, grandpa didn't chase after him, and then went to see He Xiaoyu, and it was really like He Zhenren said, he was angry, and he saw that there was only breath out and no breath in.
At this time, grandma knelt down for grandpa and kept apologizing, apologizing that if it weren't for her small heart, she would have to let my grandfather send He Xiaoyu away that day, and if she didn't freeze at the door all night, this would not happen.
Grandpa looked at He Xiaoyu and helped grandma up, originally wanted to say a few words about grandma, but now there is no need to say it, after a while, grandpa sighed, he listened to He Zhenren's suggestion, and said: "Xiulian, go and call Ma Laobian over." There was a doctor present when He Xiaoyu died, whether it was the leader or He Xiaoyu's family who came to find trouble, they could have an explanation.
After Ma Lao came over, he pricked He Xiaoyu a few times, and said to his grandfather with a sweat: "Gengchen, this girl is no good, hurry up and help prepare for the future, I see, there is a habit of cremation in the city, a fire, wait for her family to come and give the ashes, otherwise a typhoid fever will kill a large number of living people, and it is not easy to explain, and then say what kind of emergency illness she has?" ”
Everyone is thinking about grandpa, after all, it is not a trivial matter for Zhiqing to die in the village, grandpa has to be rational even if he is uncomfortable at this time, and he nodded to Ma Laobian and said: "That old horse, you have to be more responsible when the time comes." ”
Ma Lao patted his grandfather on the shoulder and said: "I know, although this matter is strange, but I don't blame you, let me tell you a word, don't be angry, since the cypress tree on the view was cut down, the luck of the lock village is low, you better sum up with He Zhenren, there are some things, you can't believe it all, but you can't not believe it." ”
"I know the bottom of this matter, you go, call the two babies and them over, and prepare an old house overnight (our name for coffins here). The girl is gone, don't say whether it will burn or not, let her be buried as soon as possible. Grandpa said.
After Ma Laobian left, the villagers were instructed, the second baby they came, and began to find wood to make a coffin, although He Xiaoyu was not dead at this time, but it was no different from death, Ma Laobian's few needles, said to be analgesic, at least to relieve He Xiaoyu's pain.
The people in the house are not dead, and the outside of the house has begun to prepare for the future, the city girl who everyone coveted two days ago may soon become a corpse, and the grandfather is sad to death, and then he knows that he has long regarded this girl as his own sister.
Everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, and within two hours, the coffin was almost made, grandma cut some paper money, and everyone sat in the yard, saying something unpleasant, just waiting for He Xiaoyu to swallow the last breath.
This hanging, that is, hanging until midnight, He Xiaoyu hiccups and farts in a row, stinky and smelly, everyone knows that this girl is really not good.
