If my mother said that the grandfather of the family that the eldest brother succeeded was not familiar with him, or that the relationship was average, I would not be so distressed, the problem is that my mother said that the old man who took away the eldest brother back then, the relationship between the grandfather and him may even be irreversible, which can be seen from the grandfather drinking with him, I have been at home for so many years, I only know that my grandfather smokes very fiercely, but I never knew that he can drink.

The so-called wine is less than a thousand glasses of confidants, and a person who can't drink alcohol drinks to the fullest with a person, then this person is definitely a very good friend.

And in the words of the fat man, if the water ghost is regarded as a craft, this craft is hereditary, that is, it is passed down within the family, so that the eldest brother is a water ghost, and is the best among the water ghosts, the water ghost king, and the family that adopted the eldest brother is definitely also the home of the water ghost.

Does Grandpa know this?

What such a familiar friend does, grandpa definitely knows.

So I can't imagine why my grandfather would pass on his eldest brother when he knew that the family was a water ghost? If that family is just an ordinary craftsman, it is easy to understand, after all, in that era, learning a craft was a guarantee of a lifetime of worry-free food and clothing, and many people would send their children to learn carpenters, learn suona, learn to tie flowers, etc., but this craft is a water ghost.

Not only does he have a quirk of personality when he grows up, but he also has a miserable end after death.

What kind of mentality does a grandfather have to be willing to let his eldest grandson suffer like this?

Taking a step back, the fat man also said that the reason why the water ghost king is called the king is because just from the level of eating water corpse meat, countless children can die at this hurdle.

So I can't imagine how my grandfather would feel if he died of eating water and corpse meat in the year when my eldest brother passed out at the age of three?

What is even more difficult for me to imagine is that when the eldest brother was forced to eat water corpse meat, what did he think of the grandfather who arranged his own destiny with his own hands?

I think of the conversation and communication with my grandfather when my eldest brother came back that day, including my eldest brother's attitude towards his family for so long, and I can feel that my eldest brother is actually estranged from this family.

I smoked a few cigarettes, the more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I felt, and I felt that I was very rational at this time, not as neurotic as before, I knew in my heart that what I was thinking was true, that is, grandpa pushed him into a fire pit when his eldest brother was three years old, but I don't believe that a grandfather would arrange his eldest grandson with such a fate, although grandpa has not been particularly concerned about me since I was a child, and he also behaved very plain after the eldest brother came back, But I put it all down to my grandfather's sluggishness in his old age and the peculiar inability of rural elders to express love.

I stood up, I need to go to my grandfather to verify, if it's true, I feel that the family really can't pay off what the family owes to the eldest brother, I went out of the house, my mother has already dried the clothes and is busy in the kitchen, grandpa is still smoking dry tobacco over there, and when he sees me come out, he turns his head to me again, and his face is still the same expression that I feel very unfamiliar.

I walked over, helped grandpa stuff tobacco into the dry tobacco bag, and then took a piece of paper and rolled up the tobacco and lit it, only one puff began to cough violently, grandpa smoked this kind of tobacco is actually our side of the toad grass, there is almost no taste of smoke, smoking feels like a knife from your throat starting to cut your lungs, through the five organs, into the six intestines, and finally to the heels, a mouthful, you even feel that the soles of your feet are spicy.

But it's this hot feeling that makes you feel sober.

I stopped coughing, I didn't dare to look at my grandfather's feelings, after all, this is when my grandson is questioning my grandfather, I said softly: "Grandpa, today I only learned that the eldest brother is so powerful after he comes back, because he is a water ghost, this water ghost is a profession, I want to become like the eldest brother, I have experienced a lot of hardships, nine deaths, and I am very miserable after death." ”

I didn't ask directly, but I knew that if Grandpa knew, he would have known what I meant when I said that.

Grandpa took a puff of dry cigarette, nodded and said, "I know." ”

I really didn't expect Grandpa to be so honest, I looked up at him and said, "Grandpa, you know everything?" ”

He nodded, not looking at me, those cloudy old eyes looking into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Do you know you're still willing to give it? That's the eldest grandson, if he were in the previous big family, his status would be much higher than mine. Don't say anything about the hardships you endure to become a master, I don't believe it. I said.

"It's better than dying here." Grandpa knocked the cigarette pouch and pot and stood up tremblingly.

"Grandpa?" I didn't know what Grandpa was going to do, so I asked.

"It's okay, I'll go squint for a while." Grandpa smiled at me and went inside, and I knew he didn't want to say more, or say what he had to say.

At this moment, my mother walked out of the kitchen with red eyes, and when she looked at her eyes, it was as if she had just cried, she looked at me and said, "Yezi, don't blame your grandfather, when I sent your brother away, I also knew everything, but your father died so much, and suddenly died, we are afraid!" If you don't send your brother to such a family, I'm afraid he'll die like this! ”

After my mother finished speaking, she squatted on the ground and cried with her head in her hands.

I stood up and walked over, helped my mother up and said, "Don't cry Mom, I'm just curious to ask, I know everything you say that, I just thought if it was me I would, but thinking about my dad's death, I feel that if it were me, I would too." My eldest brother is so smart that he must know your hardships and will not blame you. ”

My mother was still crying, I held her in my arms, and after a while, she raised her head and said: "I don't care if your brother blames me, but I don't want anything to happen to the two of you again, I asked the pillar to beg to stop you, don't check, your father is dead, I don't want to let the two of you have an accident because of this incident, I know you must have found something by asking like this, stop it, just beg your mother, okay." ”

"Mom, do you know how Dad died, and who killed Dad?" When my mom said this, I suddenly felt that my dad's death might not be an unsolved case at all, and my mom and my grandfather both knew who did it! The reason why they didn't say it was because they were afraid of retaliation, and it was precisely because of the fear of retaliation that they passed the eldest brother out!

"Don't ask, I don't know anything, I won't say anything, child, you are twenty-three years old, but do you know that the year your father died, he was only twenty-five?" With that, my mom pushed me away and rushed into the room and locked herself in, and I could hear her sobbing in the room.

As I stood in the courtyard, my heart became very heavy.

At the same time, I was extremely resentful.

The man who killed my father still wanted to kill my eldest brother, and for twenty years, my grandfather and my mother lived in fear, I gritted my teeth and swore: "No matter who you are, I will find you out!" ”

I glanced into my grandfather's room when I entered the house, and found that my grandfather was standing by the window looking at me, and his window glass was broken, and through the glass, I saw my grandfather's cloudy old eyes, and in his eyes, the vicissitudes of life were written.

No matter how much I hate the murderer.

I can't understand the pain of my grandfather's loss of my son and my mother's loss of my husband.

There are some pains that you won't understand if you don't experience them personally.

- I went into the house, sat on the bed, and fell asleep unconsciously, until Han Xue woke me up, she pinched me and said, "How about this girl's bed falling asleep?" ”

"It's so comfortable, I've never slept in such a comfortable bed." I stretched my waist and said, there is a good saying, the person you love has the ability to relax you the fastest, Han Xue has such an ability, I have been anxious these days, but as soon as I saw her, especially her playful appearance, the pressure on my body was swept away.

"Then you sleep in the bed and I sleep on the sofa?" Han Xue said with a wink.

"That's not possible, let's sleep together." I laughed.

"I think it's beautiful, get up and eat quickly, by the way, how is that handled?" Han Xue asked.

I opened my mouth, not knowing how to answer.

The thing Han Xue asked must be a fool's thing.
