There are nine graves in my backyard where my mother and my eight older brothers are buried.

When my mother was young, there were famous beauties in the neighborhood, and the people who came to propose marriage broke the threshold.

Grandpa was in our area, and he was a well-known gentleman. said that my mother's life is hard, Kefukezi, and I can't change my life until I am 40 years old. When he said this, he really scared off a lot of people. But there are still some roe deer rats who don't give up.

There is a second-rate son named Liu Fu in the next village, who often comes to the front of the house to wander around, and was driven away several times, and later heard that she went to the countryside to report her grandfather.

The morning after my grandfather was taken away, some villagers who got up early saw Liu Fu sneaking out of the door of my yard. The rumors about Liu Fu and my mother didn't spread far away, and an even more terrifying news came from the Liu family in the next village, Liu Fu went crazy.

According to Liu's family, Liu Fu was delirious when he returned home, and shouted when he met people that Taozhier was a goblin.

The Liu family bullied others, and the thief shouted to catch the thief to settle the account with my grandfather, but my mother was nowhere to be found.

They didn't know where to find an old Taoist to treat Liu Fu, and the old Taoist said that the bell must be tied to the bell. The Liu family had no choice, so they went to the township to find a relationship, and grandpa got it out.

What the villagers didn't expect was that my grandfather heard that my mother might be Liu Fuqiang, and he didn't fight with the Liu family, he just said with a grim look that Liu Fu died by himself, Tao Zhi'er is not pregnant, Liu Fu is still saved, if she is pregnant with a cub, the Liu family is afraid that she will cut off her children and grandchildren.

Nine months later, my mother came back with a big belly to give birth.

Liu Fu died suddenly at home that night.

My mother gave birth to a dead baby.

It was rumored in the village that the child was made a life-seeking ghost by my grandfather, which took Liu Fu's life.

The Liu family surrounded my house and asked my grandfather to hand over my mother to her life.

Liu Fu's father is quite reasonable, she didn't know what to talk about with her grandfather alone at my house, and after she came out, she called the Liu family back with a black face.

Since then, my mother has come back every other year with a big belly, and every time she gives birth to a dead baby.

And the Liu family will also die a person, but the strange thing is that the Liu family did not come to trouble grandpa.

In this way, eight graves were erected in the backyard of my house.

In the ninth year, my mother came back, but this time she didn't come alone, she was followed by a hunchbacked white-haired old man.

It is said that my mother howled heart-rending for three days, and she didn't even give birth to a child, so she choked.

On the day of my mother's burial, the hunchbacked white-haired old man who came back with my mother suddenly leaned on the coffin lid and listened for a long time, and then asked someone to pry the coffin open.

In full view of everyone, the old man reached out and groped between the two strands of my mother's body, and then took out a baby covered in black and green standing with blood donations.

The old man slapped the baby with a wicker stick, and the baby cried out of the way. The people in the village were scared enough, and hurriedly urged my mother to be buried.

This baby who survived from the womb of a dead man is me.

After my mother died, the Liu family was no longer dead, and the grievances between my family and the old Liu family seemed to be over.

Because of my mother's relationship with my eight dead brothers, everyone in the village avoided me like a plague god.

In the year I was born, my grandfather built a huge sarcophagus next to the nine graves, and gave me an iron decree that even if there was a knife in the sky, I would come back to keep the spirits of my mother and brother, and this rule must be eighteen years.

When I was eighteen years old, I took a leave of absence from the county high school to go home early, and it was only a three-hour drive from the county to my home. However, people are not as good as heaven.

First, the car broke down in the middle of the road, and finally waited for a car. Another landslide blocked the only way into the mountain.

I could only call my grandfather to explain the situation, and my grandfather was unusually angry and told me that even if I wanted to climb, I would climb back, and if I didn't go back today, not only would my family be unlucky, but also the whole village would be wiped out.

Let me walk back first, and he will call a car to pick me up, and then he will hang up the phone, and I can't get through when I call again.

It stands to reason that it was a maximum of two hours' drive from the village to the place of the collapse, and I had already walked for a full two hours, and still no one came to pick me up.

I still can't get through when I call again, so I can only continue to walk hard.

Until 8 o'clock in the evening, I saw the archway at the entrance of the village from a distance, and I didn't see the shadow of my grandfather.

However, the village is very strange, there is not even a person on the quiet road, and when I think about it, today is the fifteenth day of July, and the people in the village are unlucky and probably go to bed early.

"Seventy-five, the sun sets, the ghost door opens, the ghost comes out, and the living avoid it"

Although he was a good socialist youth, it was inevitable that he would have relatives, and I trotted all the way to the gate of my yard. The courtyard door is locked from the outside, and grandpa is not at home?

I looked for a trip before and after, my grandfather was indeed not at home, and then I saw that it was more than nine o'clock, and I thought that dozens of miles of mountain roads were rushed, so I still paid tribute to my mother and eight brothers.

The things to worship have always been brought to me by my grandfather, and the cabinet where he put the sacrifices has never been touched by me, when I was a child, I was curious to steal his key and open it, which is nothing more than incense candles, yellow paper, wooden swords, etc., and was found and beaten by my grandfather.

Paradoxically, today this cabinet is not locked.

I don't know why I chuckled in my heart, but I opened the cabinet door in my hand, and after seeing it clearly, my scalp was about to explode, so scared that I screamed, and almost threw away the illuminated mobile phone, and the white hair and sweat grew a layer.

There was a person lying in the cupboard!

I took a few steps back, but I didn't see the man react. I looked at it and realized that my mother was actually a paper man!

Grandpa stuffed a paper figure into the cabinet, and wore red and green, I'm afraid it's not a bride?

Just as he was about to take a closer look, there was a creaking sound of the door closing behind him. Hurriedly turned around, only to see a figure standing at the door of the room.

"Zhong Jiu, is that you?" Before I could open my mouth to ask the man, she asked at me first.

"Ji Xiaoling?" Listening to the sound, I replied, and stepped forward in three steps and two steps.

Sure enough, it was Ji Xiaoling, Ji Xiaoling was the daughter of a madman in our village, because her father was a madman. She was a child, like me, and was ostracized by the people in the village.

Maybe it's because of sympathy for each other, and they become friends after coming and going. It wasn't until junior high school, when I went to a boarding school, that we didn't see each other much.

I haven't seen her for more than a year, and Ji Xiaoling has become more and more moving, especially those smart eyes that seem to be able to hook people's souls.

After a brief pause, I was surprised and asked when she had come in.

She smiled and said to me, "I came in the afternoon, and I heard a noise in the backyard just now, thinking that you should be here, so I came to have a look." ”

More and more confused, he asked, "What are you doing in the backyard?" Why don't you stay at home today, why are you doing here? ”

Ji Xiaoling snorted lightly and said, "If your grandfather hadn't come to beg me, you would have thought I would be willing to come over." The whole village, who else but me wants to marry you. ”

"What's that? Marry me? "I thought I had misheard, and it was only then that I noticed that she was wearing the same wedding dress as the paper man.

Ji Xiaoling sneered and said, "Look at you, you're scared, it's a fake marriage." ”

I asked Ji Xiaoling what was going on, and she explained it to me. Today is not only my mother's death day, but also my eighteenth birthday. Although the old man snatched me from Hades, it also caused me to die.

Grandpa thought of a way to turn the catastrophe into happiness.

But which of the yellow flower girls in the same village is willing to marry me, a life-seeker. Grandpa thought of Ji Xiaoling, and after explaining the reason, Ji Xiaoling agreed to help me.

Grandpa repeatedly promised her that just using a pair of paper figures to replace us in marriage would not have any impact on her.

Although Ji Xiaoling said it lightly, I knew that this matter would definitely not be so simple, so I just wanted to say something.

Ji Xiaoling pushed me to the wardrobe and took a set of bright red wedding dresses from the closet to me. Let me quickly change it and tell me that I am going to miss the hour in the grinding.

As she spoke, she walked towards the backyard with one of the paper figures in the cupboard, and asked me to change my clothes and move the other paper figure to the backyard as well.

Although he was still a little confused, he still changed his clothes and walked to the backyard with the paper figure on his shoulder.

At this time, candles and sandalwood have been lit in front of the nine tombs, and the tablets at the head of the tombs are hung with red silk, which looks particularly strange under the reflection of the moonlight.
