Chapter 5: Memories of Past Lives
After the New Year, it seems to be even colder.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the family gathered around the charcoal fire to keep warm, and I designed the pattern of the clothes (my parents thought it was scribbling). )
"It's not a way to go on like this, and it's really not profitable to break stones."
"Then what do you want to do, go down to the coal kiln?"
"Let's take a look, I'll go out with them if I don't hit yet."
"Brother Dagang, they are going to Pingjing, why don't you go with them? Forget it, I've been there before, and that's not right. ”
…………
My parents didn't expect me to listen to them deliberately, so I didn't shy away from it in the slightest.
I began to think carefully about what had happened in my previous life.
In x7, my father didn't follow Dagangbo to Pingjing, because our family had been there before, and it seemed that something had happened, and my mother prevented my father from going where again.
However, I was young at the time, and now that more than 20 years have passed, I don't have any impression.
In the future, Stone became less and less profitable, but the income of those who went to Pingjing at the beginning of the year was good. The father regretted it more and more, and the sentence of poor couples mourning was vividly reflected in them.
They quarreled almost all the time for the second half of the year, and the next year (x8 years) my mother went to Xijiang alone. My father regretted my mother's departure, but in order to take care of me, he had to work harder to break stones.
Because my father was too tired to get a waist disc in August, my mother hurried home. All of my mother's salary for more than half a year was spent on my father's medical treatment.
The family was naturally even more stretched, and my parents threw me to my grandmother in x9, and the two went to Yuyuan together. I remember that the New Year was the happiest year for me, my father's illness did not recur, the family had saved money, and everything seemed to be going for the better.
In June of x10, I vividly remember that when I went to school that morning, my grandmother's throat was a little hoarse, and I was inexplicably a little worried. At noon she was back to normal, saying it was just a small cold. In the evening, when I returned home, my grandmother had been taken to the hospital by a neighbor, and my aunt was taking care of her, and I heard that my father and mother were already trying to find a way to come back.
The next day was Friday, and at noon after school I saw my mother and went with her to the hospital. Grandma is no longer conscious, and she can't hear what she says.
I suddenly felt that the sky was falling, and it was okay at noon, and she said that she was fine, and we also said that we would eat green onion noodles in the evening. She also said that she made dumplings for me on Sunday to make up for what I didn't eat in a hurry to class a few days ago...... I don't understand how such a good person suddenly became like this.
Once again, all the money saved went to my grandmother's medical treatment. When my grandmother fell, my parents couldn't get out, so my father had to go to the coal kiln with the current.
In x11, my grandmother's condition did not improve, and my parents even invited the god operator of fortune telling, and the man said that he could try it. That year, I had my sister Liang Yan, but unfortunately my grandmother didn't survive, and she passed away completely on the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month.
In x12, Xu was because his mother was too tired, or because he was exposed to something, his sister was sick from her mother's womb, and the atmosphere at home was even worse for a while. Three days before my sister turned one, my grandmother died suddenly the next day because of a fall. Since then, my mother has collapsed, she has no smile, and her temper is getting worse and worse.
"I can't read anything about this painting...... "Grandma suddenly pulled me back from my thoughts.
I had just fallen into deep memories, and when I saw my grandmother, I couldn't control my crying, and I kept crying but didn't make a sound. Adults often cry without a sound, and the extreme sadness makes me forget that I was born again, that I am now a child of six or seven years old.
"What's going on, why are you crying? Grandma said something wrong, obedient, don't dare to cry. ”
But the more my grandmother coaxed me, the more I couldn't stop crying......
