Chapter 008: Am I Alive?
I looked up and saw a woman in her twenties standing in front of me, holding a black bag in her hand, and smiled sweetly at me, "Buy this bag." ”
I was stunned for a while, then nodded and said yes, and asked her how much it was, and she said ten dollars each.
I took out ten dollars from my pocket and bought the black bag, I pinched it a few times, and said that the workmanship is quite fine and beautiful.
I was still waiting for this woman to talk to me, and when I looked up, I realized that the woman who sold me my bag was gone.
My face turned pale, even if it was a practitioner, it was impossible for me to move so fast, right?
I subconsciously clenched the bag in my heart, and found that it was hard and hard as if there was a piece of paper inside.
After taking it out, there was still a line of words on it: The bell must be tied to the bell.
I was immediately overjoyed, and I was right, the bell must be tied to the bell.
In the past few days, I have been brought over like a puppet, but I forgot to go back to my hometown and ask what I found out from my uncle, obviously it was a secret marriage for my cousin, why did you rely on me in the end?
Is it really because of the last glance I saw?
I remember that when I went to the grave to burn paper people, my uncle warned me not to look back, and in the end I turned around, and I blamed me inside and out.
When I got home overnight, I called my dad, and he didn't seem to be angry enough to ask me what was wrong. Do you think you still have a dad?
I laughed dryly and said that I want to go home tomorrow to see, counting the days from my cousin's death to today, tomorrow is the first seven, I want to go back and burn some paper for him or something.
My dad said it's okay to come back, but don't leave your job behind, after all, college students don't have jobs these days, and he was angry just now, and he became bitter and worried about my work.
I listened patiently to him teaching me, because I didn't know if I would ever have a chance to listen to him teach me in the near future.
Seeing that I didn't speak, my father asked me if I hadn't listened? I sniffled and said, listen, he stopped talking, muttering over there that young people have young thoughts, and he said that no matter how much it is, it's not easy to do it, just let me watch it myself, and I'm not a child anymore.
When he asked me when I would bring a daughter-in-law back for him, my mother saw that the young men in the same village were married, and her eyes were red; All I can say is soon.
After hanging up the phone, I called the cattle team again, and to be honest, I was quite curious, and he didn't call me for three days.
When the phone was connected, he fed a sound that sounded like he had just done something bad.
I didn't speak for a while, and he fed him several times, and then said who the hell was making a harassing phone call at night, and if he called again, he would kill me.
Just when he was about to hang up, I opened my mouth and said: Niu Team, I'm Qiu Yan, I can't go to work tomorrow, I want to go back to my hometown, the unit is ......
He became very excited when he heard my voice, and said no problem, you go, I'll keep it for you here.
I said thank you to him, and I spent the night alone on the sofa, and the next day I stopped a car and went back to my hometown.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw my uncle arguing with my father, it seemed that the quarrel was quite fierce, my uncle pointed at my father with a red face and said that the dead child in your family has been robbing things with Xiao Miao (my cousin) since he was a child, I really didn't expect me to be so shameless and even rob a ghost daughter-in-law of the secret marriage.
My dad has a good temper, but my mom can't point at my uncle's nose and scold, anyway, there are a lot of ugly words.
As soon as my uncle turned his head and saw me coming back, he slapped me and pointed at me and said, "Did I tell you not to look back after you burned it that day?" Are you turning back? ”
I met his gaze, said yes, and told me everything that had happened since I burned the paper figurine.
As soon as he finished speaking, my uncle was stunned, and it took a few seconds for him to point at me and say that he was really a, and finally the neighbors couldn't see it anymore and pulled my uncle back.
After I entered the house with a black face, my father sat next to me, and he looked at the slap mark on my face and said, "Don't blame your uncle, your aunt went early, and he had such a son." ”
I nodded and said I know, I don't blame him, I just wonder why this is the way it is.
My dad looked at my mom like that, and when he saw my mom nodding, my dad told me the whole thing.
It turned out that on the day I returned to the unit, the goddess told my uncle that the marriage had failed, and the bride didn't know where to go, but it was definitely not in the village.
Later, the goddess pinched her fingers and said that the ghost lady had followed me on me, and this secret marriage was gone, and at first my uncle didn't believe it, and went to my rental house to find me, and the landlord said that I hadn't come back for several days.
My uncle thought that I had abducted the ghost lady, so there was this scene of making trouble in my house today.
I reached out and rubbed my face, looked at my dad and said, "The ghost lady did follow me and I was still entangled by her, do you remember when I called you and asked where she was from?" ”
My father said that he remembered, and I said: It was from that time on, she had stuck to me and it seemed that she was going to drag me to death, and I had been staying in Wutong County for the past three days, and in order to get rid of her, I have now become a ghost.
I uncovered the clothes on my shoulder, the deep wound was still there but it didn't hurt at all, after opening the wound, there were small balls of millet grains, it seemed to be insect eggs, my mother was crying and asked me what was inside the wound, I lied to her that it was the medicine given by the doctor, which would help the wound to recover.
After talking to them for a while, I said I'm going to my uncle's house? After all, this happened.
My mother didn't let me, but my father wanted me to go for a walk, and no matter how much the two families quarreled, they were brothers and let me go and see, and finally my mother said that it didn't matter, what about love.
I went to the supermarket in the village to buy some things and went to my uncle's house, a home without a woman is actually not a home, it should be called a circle (juan), the furniture is broken, the rice bowls, chopsticks, clothes are thrown everywhere, he sits alone on the steps outside the house.
When I entered the door, my uncle stood up and asked me what I was doing here.
I said it's okay, come and see you.
He sat down and said, "What happened just now, it's my old thing who didn't do it right, don't take it to heart." ”
I hurriedly said, "Uncle, there is a problem with what you said, you are an elder, what's wrong with slapping me?" Isn't that how it should be? I'm just like my cousin, you're a child. ”
My uncle glanced at me, then his eyes turned red, and said: If Xiao Miao could be so obedient and sensible as you, he would not be ...... at a young age
Seeing my uncle crying his nose, I felt very aggrieved, he reached out and wiped a handful of tears and asked me: Will you drink?
I nodded yes.
My uncle ran out of the house and took two bottles of beer, and after opening them, he pushed a bottle in front of me, and he raised his neck and grunted most of the bottles.
I also drank less than half a bottle with my head up, and after I put down the bottle, my uncle's mood stabilized a lot.
"Xiaoyan, Uncle has a sentence that I don't know if I should ask you."
As soon as I saw my uncle's eyes narrowed, I knew that he was going to get down to business, so I quickly sat up straight and said, "Uncle, you say."
My uncle looked me up and down, "Are you still alive?" ”
