When I passed by the promotion hall, I actually heard the sound of musical instruments and occasionally firecrackers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThere is an old man here who is gone, because the snow is too deep, few people come to join in the fun, plus there is a heavy funeral, and it has been at home for three days.

Tang Batian, according to his usual thoughts, should have come over a long time ago. is not only because of his identity as the leader of the village committee, but also because of the same Tang character.

But when he walked to the road with Zhuo Shun, he saw that although the snow on the white road had been trampled on a lot of traces, there was no one in sight now. Presumably, there are still some white things on this side of the promotion hall, and there are still some people who come and go every day. However, Tang Batian couldn't care about this, and he didn't have the slightest thought today.

Originally, Tang Batian was usually bold, but today I don't know why, when I saw Zhuo Shun, I couldn't help but call him to accompany him. The young man of seventeen or eighteen is full of vigor and energy. With him by his side, I don't know why Tang Batian felt more down-to-earth.

couldn't help but glance at Tang Renfeng's house, even though there was no difference in the old house, but in Tang Batian's eyes, it seemed to be a lot more lonely and lonely. No one walked on the road, and the mourner's family didn't see any movement, so Tang Batian didn't mean to stop, but walked quickly in the direction of Orchid Bay.

The people along the way, it seems that the doors are closed in broad daylight, although there is no snow anymore, but the thick snow looks like it makes people block. The snow in front of many people's homes had not been swept away, making Tang Batian's brows furrowed. Look at even the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, there is only a small gap open, and it seems to be constantly steaming out.

Passing by the stream flowing down the Hanako Reservoir, I saw the steaming heat all the way, and the sound of tinkling water flowing slowly. Tang Batian's expression was slightly better, because the path by the creek led to Shen Yuanqiao's house, and when he saw the path with little snow, it showed that there were still people walking. Tang Batian breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had not mistaken this Shen Yuanqiao, at least on such a cold day, he did not curl up at home to enjoy it.

Walking to the path into Orchid Bay, Tang Batian's brows couldn't help frowning again. It turned out that there were few footprints here, and the white snow did not seem to have been disturbed. There aren't many people living here, but it's not a few, but I don't know why there don't seem to be any people coming in and out. Tang Batian didn't know why this was the case, and glanced at the white Orchid Bay from a distance, Tang Batian's brows furrowed even tighter.

Zhuo Shun was a discerning person, and when he saw Tang Batian's demeanor, he took the lead and walked away.

He also wore knee-high rain boots, but he didn't feel cold at all. As I walked ahead, I used my rain boots to sweep away the snow left and right, and I actually cleared a path one or two feet wide all the way. Then he stepped on it to make the snow below a little more solid, although it did not show the road, but Tang Batian stepped on it in fur shoes again, and there would be no soft snow into the boots.

Tang Batian's face was a little soothed for Zhuo Shun's sensibility, and he didn't urge Zhuo Shun. The young man had this vision, Tang Batian still admired it very much, and couldn't help but re-examine Zhuo Shun.

The two of them walked very slowly, but it was better to be clean on the road, and it would not be cold if the snow could not press the upper of the shoe. Although Zhuo Shun kept cleaning up, he was even more hot in his mouth and nose, but he seemed to be tired of looking at his energy.

When I saw the old house in Orchid Bay on the road, I couldn't see the Zhangshu Reservoir over there, as if the entire reservoir was covered with snow. It is also a reservoir, the size is about the same, and it is obvious that the water flow of the Zhangshu Reservoir is not as good as that of the Hanako Reservoir. Although there seemed to be mist steaming in the direction of the reservoir, in this icy and snowy place, it was like a giant beast exhaling, and it soon became inconspicuous.

What surprised Tang Batian was that he actually saw Tang Jiashan and Tang Jiashao brothers, standing at the door of their adobe house. Tang Jiashao was holding a small fire bucket in his hand, and Tang Jiashan was laughing from afar. The two of them looked at Tang Batian, and they were actually a little cautious and nodded with a smile. Tang Jiashao's eyes were a little bad, but he probably heard Tang Jiashan say it, and stood there very cautiously.

"On such a cold day, why don't you stay in the house and bake the fire, how can you stand outside the steps!" Tang Batian looked at the two brothers with some astonishment, although there are not many big trees on the mountain now, but every year in winter, most of the villagers will prepare enough firewood to roast the fire in winter. Tang Batian said this to the two people, in addition to being a normal greeting, of course, his heart was also a little complicated.

Because during the Great Movement, he was the most popular revolutionary member in the township. Because of their backgrounds, these two people are nitpicky and troublesome with them. Even if they are careful, they have suffered a lot of blows in the end. Many years have passed now, and they have even reached the era of opening up, but they don't seem to have completely come out, and they are obviously a little afraid of Tang Batian.

"I just went to help Cizhen's family deliver something to Lao Luo's house, but it doesn't look like the sky is brighter, and the house is not warm, so I haven't entered the house yet!" Tang Jiashan smiled honestly and said truthfully to Tang Batian.

Looking at the road to the reservoir in front, on one side is the direction of Tang Cizhen's house, and on the other side is the direction of Yizhuang, and sure enough, a series of footprints have been stepped on in the snow. Tang Cizhen usually works in the supply and marketing cooperative, and some people in the family may also be old people and women. Tang Batian was noncommittal, glanced at the two brothers, and didn't want to say anything more to them. But he seemed to think of something, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "You just went to Lao Luo's house?" What did you see him doing? “

"I didn't see Lao Luo! The things were collected by Luo Ying, and the cold weather didn't let us into the house. But I heard that the four girls of Cizhen's family have lived in Lao Luo's house for several days! The guests of Cizhen Hall asked to send a bag of charcoal foam and some sweet potatoes! Tang Jiashan said with a smile, as if he was afraid that what he said was not detailed enough and made Tang Batian angry.

Tang Batian was puzzled when he heard this, but he didn't say it, but after humming, he dropped a sentence: "Okay, okay!" It's too cold, so let's go inside and stay! If it's cold, go to the promotion hall, there are people who accompany the night to mourn. I'm going to old Locke's house! After taking a few steps forward, he turned around and saw that the two people had not yet entered the house, so he said in a deep voice, "Don't tell anyone that I have been here!" Remember! ”

Will the Tang brothers talk too much, Tang Batian didn't have time to pay attention to it, but walked to Yizhuang under the leadership of Zhuo Shun. However, when I just walked to the edge of the reservoir, I actually saw a woman standing by the door of Tang Cizhen's house, looking at two people under the eaves.

"That's Tang Cizhen's daughter baby!" may have seen that Tang Batian was a little confused, Zhuo took the initiative to introduce by the way, although his mouth and nose were hot, he still looked a little excited, and waved to Tang Baobao who was standing there with Tang Batian's perspective on his back.

Tang Baobao stood there, although his face was also flushed, but he didn't mean to respond, but after seeing Tang Batian look over, he turned around and went into the house. Zhuo Shun was a little embarrassed here, and secretly looked at Tang Batian, only to find that he was stunned looking at the snow-covered Zhangshu Reservoir, as if he was thinking about something. Zhuo Shun didn't dare to disturb, and stood quietly and waited.

"Xiaoshun, it's snowing so much, can you tell me if you can stand on the snow on the water surface of this reservoir!" Tang Batian suddenly asked an inexplicable word without raising his head.

Although Zhuo Shun was a little surprised, he saw the reservoir full of snow, thought for a while and said: "In previous years, the snow did not fall so much, but when it was freezing badly, after a few ponds near the house froze, it was possible to stand on people." The reservoir is so big that it doesn't seem to flow, but it certainly doesn't solidify as a pond. Not to mention standing on a person's head, it is estimated that as soon as you step on it, you will sink into the water with a bang! ”

"That's what I thought, too!" Tang Batian actually smiled, took out a cigarette from his body and lit it, and after taking a deep breath, he actually looked around in a good mood. "Let's go! Let's go over and take a look, and after listening to Tang Jiashan, I don't know if I can see Lao Luo! ”

Zhuo Shun didn't think much about it, and still opened the way in front of him. When Tang Batian raised his feet and walked forward, his face, which had been tense, actually loosened, as if his heart had suddenly opened up.

When they first arrived at the door, to the surprise of the two people, with a squeak, the door of Yizhuang actually opened. I saw Luo Ying standing in the door with a smile, and the two of them looked at the snow in the courtyard courtyard as if it had not moved, and had overflowed to the inner steps around it. Luo Ying was wearing cotton shoes and cotton clothes, without a trace of wind and snow.

Although Zhuo Shun rarely comes here, he also knows that the courtyard that passes through the patio from the gate is opposite the hall of Yizhuang, where many coffins are usually placed. At this time, the door of the hall was closed, and Luo Ying, dressed in plain black, stood inside, which made people look a little smiling, but also a little empty.

Because of the particularity of Yizhuang, the whole building is a large semicircle of giant fans. From the left to the front of the house, there are two feet wide inner stairs in the inner walls, and near the left, there is also an area for the mountain keepers, and next to the hall on the right is a row of guest rooms for the mountain worshippers. Seeing that Luo Ying's feet were not sticky to the snow inside, Zhuo Shun even felt a little envious.

"Ye Laozi (Ye Laozi: one of the names of the younger generations of the Xiangchu people for their father) said that there were guests coming, but I didn't believe it yet. Who would come here on such a cold day, I didn't expect it to be a rare guest! Luo Ying smiled sideways and asked Tang Batian to enter the house, and when he saw Zhuo Shun also coming in, he stood in front of Zhuo Shun first. It looked like it was closing, but it actually squeezed Zhuo Shun to the back.

"You don't accept your grandfather!" Tang Batian grinned, obviously very familiar with Luo Ran, the eldest son, and when he walked into Yizhuang, he turned around and saw Luo Ying blocking Zhuo Shun behind. Without much thought, he walked towards the inner steps on the left, and said casually: "Lao Luo is getting bigger and bigger now!" Even when I came, I didn't see anyone! ”

Luo Ying didn't answer Tang Batian's words immediately, but said to Zhuo Shun behind him: "Third sister, they are bored in the next room!" You go and accompany them! Zhuo Shun saw Luo Ying staring at himself and pointing to the Full Moon Gate next door, although he felt a little uncomfortable, but thinking that Tang Batian might have something to do with Luo Ran, he had to raise his feet and go to the left.

Tang Batian was obviously a little surprised, but he didn't squeak either, and followed Luo Ying straight into the hall. The hall was dimly lit with the dim light of the ever-bright lamps, and the faint scent of sandalwood in the air.

"You feel something is wrong, don't you?" Seeing Luo Ran sitting on the futon on the low couch in the inner room, and another strange man, Tang Batian stood there a little dumbfounded when he heard Luo Ran, who had a thin face, say this.

"It's not wrong, it's that it feels like something is wrong!" Tang Batian felt that his tongue was a little dry, he looked at Luo Ran and then at the man, and lowered his voice: "Today, Tang Dianfeng's child died suddenly, I feel that it is not so simple, as if there is some conspiracy!" ”
