Chapter 35, Auntie is the best
Greeting everyone's eyes along the way, they finally arrived at the entrance of the village, and Dad He's car suddenly slowed down and then stopped.
Xiao's mother, who was sitting in the back, turned her head to look ahead suspiciously, it turned out that there was a mourning team, and the road that was not wide was full, but fortunately, they began to turn at the intersection in front.
He Niannian, who was sitting on the soft cushion, withdrew his gaze from looking at the farmland, and also saw the mourning team in front of him, some people were wearing white filial piety clothes and hats, and some people just had a white belt tied around their waists.
At the front of the procession are a few people holding wreaths, behind them are holding a stack of paper money and scattering paper, and then there is a coffin carried by eight people, but it is covered by the red sedan curtain and the sedan roof, from the outside can only see the red cloth painted with dragons, and in the back are crying and mourning people, the team is mighty, and there are many people.
Suddenly, He Niannian found that the sedan curtain moved, and then the wind blew loudly, everyone was blown to the ground, the coffin was smashed to the ground, only to hear a bang, the coffin inside opened, the lid directly lifted the top of the sedan chair, and a white-bearded old man wearing a shroud flew out of it, he looked around after he came out, and then his eyes fell on He Niannian and flew towards her.
"Ahh He Niannian covered his eyes in fright and screamed.
"What's wrong?" Xiao's mother saw that her daughter was frightened, and quickly held her in her arms, feeling that the person in her arms was still trembling.
Xiao's mother gently patted her daughter's back and caressed her, and after a long while, He Niannian calmed down the violent heartbeat, felt the warmth of her mother, and she hugged her mother tightly.
"Niannian, tell your mother what's wrong?" Xiao Guiying wondered if her daughter had seen something dirty again, she looked at the funeral procession that had gone away, and frowned.
Father He, who was about to drive, heard the movement behind him and turned his head to look over.
"Nian Nian, what's wrong?" He asked Xiao's mother.
He Niannian didn't speak, she secretly turned her head to look outside, everything was back to normal, and there was nothing abnormal about the team that went away, as if the wind before and the people she saw were her own fantasies.
Mom and Dad were still looking at her with concern, He Niannian shook his head, "Mom and Dad, I'm fine, but I was just scared by the illusion I saw." ”
Xiao Guiying said in her heart that she really saw something, she touched He Niannian's frightened pale face, she was very distressed, but she couldn't help much.
"It's okay, it's all fake, when you open your eyes, you will find that it doesn't exist." Xiao's mother had nothing to do, so she could only enlighten her like this and tell her not to go to her heart.
The good mood along the way, because of the things at the entrance of the village, disappeared, and Father He and his eyes were a little solemn, but He Niannian left the previous things behind after a while.
Back at home, He Niannian helped his mother start to clean up the house, and He Dad went to see his own land, although it was planted by others, but he still had to go over and take a look, the most important thing was the three acres of land in the west of the village.
When it was almost noon, Father He came back with a bag of noodles, which was given by the family who planted their land in the west of the village.
Because they only stayed for one night, the noodles were not opened, and their family also promised to send a bag of cornmeal next time, which was not much, but the villagers and Xiao's mother didn't want to care so much.
There was no fire at noon, Xiao's mother and they took their things to Xiaomei's house and went to their place to eat.
Aunt Xiao's family lives in the east of the village, not far from the township government and the primary school.
When I arrived, Aunt Xiao's house was cooking, and I saw the eldest sister coming over, still carrying things.
"Eldest sister, eldest brother-in-law, you are here just in time, I am cooking." Saying that, Aunt Xiao took the chicken and pork from her brother-in-law's hands and decided to make a meat dish.
"I'm here to rub rice, so I'll make more cakes." Xiao's mother said to her little sister very unceremoniously.
"The cake is baked, don't worry, there must be enough to eat." Aunt Xiao smiled heartily, and then entered the kitchen.
Ah Hui, who was watching TV in the house, heard the movement and walked out, "Auntie, auntie, I miss you guys." ”
Li Hui is 14 years old this year, just in the first half of the third semester of junior high school, half a head taller than He Niannian, and he is a young man.
He took the fruit from Xiao's mother and let the person into the house.
Aunt Xiao was cooking in the east wing, and when she heard her son's voice, she hurriedly shouted outside, "Ah Hui, while your sister is here, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask if you know?" ”
Li Hui was very happy, but when he heard his mother's voice, he pouted depressedly, and talked to him every day, which was annoying, but fortunately, he stopped caring about him during this time and let him go out to play.
"Ah Hui, if you don't understand, you can ask Niannian, but ah, don't blindly study hard, finish your homework and go out to play for a while, you can learn better by combining work and rest." Xiao Guiying saw that Li Hui was unhappy, so she spoke.
"Well, it's still the best aunt, my mother pulls me to study every day, and I'm annoyed to death." Li Hui thinks that his aunt is still open-minded, didn't he see that Nian Nian has always relied on the first place?
"You can't be long-winded, she's worried that you won't? Do you know all the knowledge in the textbook? ”
As they spoke, they walked in, there were very few sofas at this time, and there were basically tables, chairs and benches in the countryside, or earthen kang and wooden beds.
Li Hui placed the fruit on top of a wooden cabinet more than half a person high, with a glass cabinet for tea sets underneath, a three-story drawer below, and a small single-door cabinet erected on either side.
"Auntie, I know everything in the books, it's so simple, I'll read it twice, my mother still has to let me read it a few more times, saying that it is to consolidate knowledge, you say that I can memorize it, what's the use of reading it a few more times." Li Hui grumbled as he took out a plastic red tray with the word Fu printed in the middle from the cupboard, and then took out some apples and grapes, ready to take them out and wash them.
"Well, Auntie knows, if you can guarantee that you won't get out of the top three in the exam, I'll tell your mother and let her leave you alone, how about it?" Xiao Guiying looked at the half-grown young man and made a promise.
"Really? Oldest maternal aunt. Li Hui felt very pleasantly surprised, he clenched his fists and made a victory gesture, "Auntie, I promise to be able to take the top three, really, if I fall out of the top three, I don't need my mother to talk about it, I will study hard." ”
He actually wanted to say the first place, but thinking of his sloppy personality, forget it, the top three must be proper.
"Okay, it's wrapped up in my aunt, let's go wash the fruit."
"Eh, my aunt is the best, I love my aunt the most." Li Hui happily went out with a plate.
