After An Jiaqi left, Tang Muzhou and I began to officially hold a wake for my aunt and grandmother.

There was no wind in the mourning hall, and the two white candles next to my aunt's posthumous photo were burning quietly.

In the ever-bright lamp, the lamp oil is very abundant.

My aunt, whom I had never met, was sleeping in a heavy coffin, very quiet, as if she knew that she was going to be buried tomorrow, and was waiting quietly.

After being buried, people will say goodbye to this world completely.

Everything in life is reduced to dust and ashes, how poignant and resolute.

Tang Muzhou, who was keeping the vigil with me, after checking the lights and candles, shrank back on a Taishi chair and played a mobile game by himself.

The originally quiet lobby immediately sounded the sound of fighting. Some yelled, some shouted, some cried. The sound of guns, the sound of chainsaws cutting flesh, all mixed together, sounded brutal and bloody, and a little exciting.

That's right, people have the thrill of killing in their bones.

In everyday life, the character that cannot be exposed can be perfectly released in this kind of slaughtering game. Whether it is a man who is polite on the surface or a gentle and humble woman, once it is contaminated with the pleasure of blood, it will be unstoppable.

Perhaps, this is the reason why this kind of killing game has become so popular in recent years.

I turned on my phone, but Liang Yuan still didn't reply to my WeChat.

Despite my impatience, I couldn't do anything.

One thing is for sure, though, that Mei Mei is smart, at least much smarter than I was.

She shouldn't be fooled so easily.

Moreover, the trafficker is just observing the situation from the sidelines, and if he wants to start, it is estimated that he will not be so fast.

It's like back then, when he ate noodles at my house for more than a month before he tried to attack me.

My aunt and grandmother will be buried tomorrow, and after dealing with these things, if there is still no news, I will go back halfway, and there should be no problem.

Thinking of this, my heart is a little more stable.

After more than an hour, I was bored scrolling through Weibo, and Tang Muzhou's game was in full swing.

From time to time, I looked up at the candle flame, the flame was burning straight up, the lamp oil was very sufficient, and the lamp grass soaked in the oil was long enough to burn until the funeral tomorrow.

I looked at my aunt again, and she was looking at me too.

When I think back to what my grandmother said, I am filled with emotion.

It was autumn dusk, and the sweltering air had dissipated and the sky was getting cooler.

Grandma sat in a rocking chair in front of her house, and in the stove in the hallway, she read corn and blue melon soup, and there was a pig's cob bone in it. Grandma said that I was growing my body, so I should drink more bone broth to replenish calcium.

Although the conditions of our family are very ordinary, my grandmother is meticulous in supplementing my nutrition.

Grandma is a person who never prefers sons over daughters, and treats grandchildren equally.

I followed my second uncle Tang Wuzhou to the provincial capital, and for so many years, even if I graduated from college, she sent me 500 yuan every month, and never stopped.

I'm twenty-five years old, and I'm still gnawing at my old age, and it's a shame to talk about it.

Grandma didn't care so much, she said on the phone, no matter how old I am, even if I am thirty years old, as long as she is alive for a day, I am her granddaughter.

She said: It is not natural for grandma to give money to her granddaughter to spend.

When I lived with me, my grandmother occasionally mentioned this sister of hers:

"Your aunt and grandmother are a particular person, even if you eat a plate of green vegetables, you must fry them in oil and make them verdant, put them in a white porcelain plate, the dining table or something, it must be clean and beautiful, if there are conditions, the solid wood dining table is the best, and she will also spread a layer of lace embroidered dinner cloth on it, and then sit down and eat slowly."

Every time I hear this, a picture comes to mind.

A tall woman dressed in a cheongsam with a bumpy figure. The hair was curly and combed very neatly, the face was covered with light makeup, the lips were red, and the eyebrows and eyes were affectionate.

She sat in the courtyard of her home, and the sun shone down, reflecting her whole person very exquisitely.

That small dish of emerald green pond vegetables, the stems and leaves were covered with oil. The white porcelain plate is so bright that it can reveal the human face. My aunt was holding a bowl of rice in her hand, picking up a piece of green vegetables, and eating it beautifully.

She enjoyed the moment very much.

Although my grandmother's description of her sister was only a few short sentences, in my mind's eye, my aunt was already a very delicate woman.

This kind of delicacy is not made of money.

Rather, an attitude to life.

Who wouldn't live a proud day of the spring breeze. Being able to live a difficult life with poetry is a kind of ability.

I think my aunt and grandmother definitely have that ability.

Just thinking about it, Tang Muzhou suddenly screamed over there.

I didn't know what was going on, so I quickly looked over there, only to see Tang Muzhou holding his mobile phone and asking me, "Tang Xiaofan, did you bring a power bank?" ”

"Brought it."

I nodded.

Hearing me say this, he excitedly reached out to me: "Give it to me." ”

But I pointed to the West Chamber, and said, "Uh...... In the bedroom. ”

He glared, "Why don't you bring it?" ”

I was a little depressed, you played with your mobile phone, and you didn't know how to bring a charger, so I asked me what was going on, so I also glared at him: "My phone still has a lot of power, why should I bring a charger?" ”

Tang Muzhou thought about it and jumped down from the Taishi's chair:

"You stay here for a while, I'll go back to my room and get the charger, and I'll be over soon."

Hearing him say that, I was a little confused.

Tang Muzhou, this is the plan, to leave me here alone, and let me stay alone with my aunt's coffin. In the middle of the night, I feel numb in my scalp when I think about it.

If you want to talk about ghosts or something, in fact, I'm not very scared of Tang Xiaofan.

After all, this aunt is my blood relative, and even if she does jump out of the coffin, she won't do anything to me.

Hell, aren't they all people? Then it should be similar to human thinking. In some film and television works, I always think that the ghost who jumps out to kill and eat people is a brain problem.

What I'm afraid of is this dark night.

Dongshan Club, deep in this mountain, in case a beast or bird of prey comes out or something, I Tang Xiaofan's small body is estimated to be unable to deal with it.

Tang Muzhou said to me: "Xiaofan, don't be afraid, I'll take the charger and come over, and it will be done in a few minutes." ”

As he spoke, he didn't wait for me to say no, he walked to the west chamber.

In the huge mourning hall, I was the only one left.

No, I'm not alone.

With me, there is also my aunt and grandmother in the coffin, waiting for tomorrow's funeral.

A gust of wind blew, and I shivered.

Looking back, in front of my aunt's mourning hall, the firelight shook slightly, reflecting my aunt's gentle and charitable face strangely......
