The sudden scene made Lao Wang dumbfounded: "Hongmei, you, what are you doing here?" ”

"My feet, my feet."

"Feet, what's wrong with feet?"

Lao Wang approached unconsciously, and heard Hongmei's crying voice: "Brother Wang, I'm sorry." ”

"Huh?" The old king raised his head, and a bright light slashed at him.

Hongmei took out the kitchen knife hidden behind her and slashed at Lao Wang's neck, Lao Wang fell in response, blood kept gushing out of his neck, and his whole body was twitching.

"Brother Wang, I'm sorry." Hongmei wiped her tears and raised the knife again, until she completely cut off Lao Wang's head, and then dragged her body into the well with difficulty.

There was a loud sound of water, and Hongmei raised Lao Wang's head and muttered, "This can be proven." ”

Zhou Xue had already covered his eyes, his whole body was trembling, Ling Tian sighed and shook his head, such a tragedy made him sad.

But the matter is not over, Hongmei has been sitting in the courtyard, Lao Wang's head is placed next to her, the sun sets and rises, rises and sets, and the figure of the old woman and others does not appear.

It wasn't until the third day that Hongmei stood up and put the smelly head into the refrigerator with difficulty.

The moment she put her head in the refrigerator, her surroundings changed again.

All the people just now appeared in the courtyard, and Hongmei sat on the ground with a cloak, and in front of her was a small figure covered by a white cloth.

The old woman sighed and said, "Hongmei, people can't be resurrected after death, don't be too sad." ”

"How did the child die?"

"How did you die?" The second aunt shook her head: "Drowned, I guess it's not our Zhou family's species, the eldest brother and the younger brother have not been soaked in the water since they were children, like a fish......"

"Shut up."

"Shut up."

The old woman and her uncle spoke at the same time, and the two glanced at each other, and the old woman let out a long sigh: "The child is our Zhou family, and this matter is settled." ”

The mother spoke, and the three aunts were speechless.

Hongmei turned around and knelt in front of the old woman: "Mom, I want to make a big deal for the child." ”

"It's impossible." The third aunt jumped up: "The child died young, how can there be a big deal." ”

"That is, according to custom, at most prepare a coffin and bury it."

"It's unlucky to die young, you want to curse us, right?"

Hongmei didn't refute, but kept kowtowing and begging bitterly. The old woman wiped her tears: "In this way, the coffin is a regular coffin, and the sacrifices are all on the table, and firecrackers can be set off." ”

The three aunts objected repeatedly, but the old woman stopped them, but Hongmei was not satisfied and was still begging bitterly.

The old woman gave a few words of persuasion, and left in a fit of rage.

The uncle sighed and walked to Hongmei's side: "Okay, those who die can only use a clear wooden coffin, and now the eldest sister has regressed by letting the coffin be used, not to mention allowing firecrackers." Alas. ”

The uncle sighed and left, and Hongmei looked at her son under the white cloth, letting the blood flow down her cheeks.

"This is the seed of the Zhou family, this is the seed of the Zhou family."

Zhou Xue was already crying profusely, but she still explained their past customs to Ling Tian. The death of a minor child is regarded as the greatest bad luck and is usually buried only in a mat.

The better relationship is the clear wooden coffin, the so-called clear wooden coffin is the unpainted coffin, which means that like the child, he has not finished the road of life, and hopes to continue after death. Don't come to harm your family.

Setting off firecrackers is to make ghosts recognize their homes, which is equivalent to leaving disasters at home.

This kind of custom, Ling Tian was powerless to evaluate, he only kept shaking his head, he was very sympathetic to Hongmei, if Hongmei was willing, he also hoped to be able to enshrine her in the worship hall.

It's just that it's not over yet.

The child was soon buried, as the old woman had said, in a lacquered coffin. In the sound of firecrackers, only Hongmei's cry was earth-shattering, as if to vent all her grievances.

No matter how much I persuaded to leave, in the end, I had to leave Hongmei by the small grave.

Hongmei, who was crying bitterly, finally fainted, and the moment she closed her eyes, Ling Tian's eyes were also dark.

When she saw something again, Hongmei was sitting in the courtyard in a daze, covered with mud, while Zhou Xue's father, Zhou Qiang, was kneeling in front of Hongmei.

"Sister-in-law, don't be sad, I apologize to you on behalf of my family." Saying that, it's three rings.

Hongmei stood up and took out Lao Wang's frozen head from the bottom of the refrigerator under Zhou Qiang's puzzled gaze.

"Little brother, I have proven myself, I am innocent, and the child is also the species of the Zhou family."

Zhou Qiang was already stupid, and he hurriedly looked behind him before half ringing: "Sister-in-law, this, does anyone still know about this?" ”

Hongmei shook her head: "I was going to show my mother, but I didn't have time yet." ”

Zhou Qiang thought for a while, and gritted his teeth: "Sister-in-law, people, give this to me, you must not say anything, I will throw it away, this incident will be treated as if it never happened." Didn't you tell my brother that you want to go to the big city to see, I saved some money, you hurry up. ”

Hongmei looked at Zhou Qiang's face: "Little brother, why are you helping me so much." ”

"You're my sister-in-law, I believe in you."

Zhou Qiang said very seriously, Hongmei looked at Zhou Qiang for a while, and let out a laugh like a ghost crying: "Well, well, well, someone still believes me." ”

Hongmei's words made Zhou Qiang's eyes red: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I don't dare to speak for you." ”

"It's okay, someone can trust me."

With tears in her eyes, Hongmei did not hand over the head to Zhou Qiang, but threw it into the well. Looking at the ripples of the well: "Brother Wang, I'm sorry." ”

Zhou Qiang also stood up: "Sister-in-law, the water is about to be connected, the well is gone, I will go back and get some cement to seal it, this incident has not happened." ”

"Little brother, thank you."

"Sister-in-law, I, I just hope you don't blame my mother and sister, they, they ......."

Hongmei nodded: "I know, I married into the Zhou family, that is, the Zhou family, my mother and sister are very good to me, it is only because of that rumor that it is like this, little brother, I promise you, I don't blame them, I don't blame them." ”

Zhou Qiang lowered his head and didn't say a word, Hongmei smiled with tears, walked past him, and when he walked out of the yard, he sang a song, the song was melodious, but it was a dialect, which made it difficult for people to hear the content clearly.

Ling Tian, who had already guessed the result, was waiting for the next scene change, who knew that he was dizzy, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the living room.

Zhou Xue beside him cried, and Du Juan looked at Ling Tian with a fierce face.

"What did you do to Zhou Xue, she started to cry non-stop just after she went in."

Although Zhou Xue was crying speechless, she grabbed Du Juan's hand and shook her head incessantly.

Ling Tian sighed and recounted what he had seen, and the cuckoo and cuckoo began to wipe away their tears.

"It's so miserable, you can let her go." For the first time, Cuckoo said soft words to Ling Tian.

Ling Tian nodded: "She is Zhou Xue's ancestor, and she also promised Zhou Xue's father not to make a move on his family, so Zhou Xue is safe." But I can also take her away and find another place to settle down and worship every day. ”

"No, don't." Zhou Xue forcibly stopped crying: "She is my aunt, I want to worship her at home, I believe my father will agree." ”

"But your aunts?"

"Then I'll go to the cemetery and buy a place, and I'll worship it myself."
