My grandfather made me a talisman and told me to take me until I was eighteen years old, and instructed me to take a detour when I saw the cemetery from now on, and not to go to a place where yin qi is heavy. In addition, there are also Zhongyuan, Chongyang, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Qingming Festival, and you are not allowed to stay in the house and go anywhere.

In less than a year, my grandfather died. After my grandfather died, I followed Sister Yan and Uncle Yan to live in the city.

Until I became an adult, I was frail and sickly, and my sports were a mess, and I couldn't climb trees and dig birds' nests. Therefore, I can only focus on my studies, and my grades have always been among the best, from key junior high schools to key high schools, and then to key universities, all the way unimpeded.

My uncle and aunt also had children again, but they always regarded me as their pride.

As an adult, the black mark on my chest disappeared, and my body gradually became stronger, and I changed from years of frailty and illness.

As soon as the body is good, the playfulness that has been suppressed for many years is finally released, plus the university is less restrained, relatively free, and the heart is wild.

Later, he was bold enough to follow others to "skate", and then he really played himself to death.

The second time, he was arrested by the police and detained for 15 days. Coupled with all the bad deeds accumulated before, I was expelled from school.

I thought I had studied hard for more than ten years, but I ended up in college.

I went to school to roll up and pack my bags, and when I returned home in a gloomy way, I was unexpectedly beaten by my uncle. This meal seems to have accumulated for a long time, from the first time I was recorded as a major demerit in college, and it has accumulated until now, evolving into a huge anger, and all the vents in my head.

"We've worked so hard to send you to college! It's to make you an adult! Let you have a chance! It's not for you to learn badly! Are you worthy of your grandfather and your sister Yan! Uncle scolded while beating.

I felt uncomfortable when I heard him mention Grandpa and Sister Yan, and I regretted that things became the way they are.

"You let me go! Give me a leave! Don't come back! "After a beating, I was swept away.

I'm not angry at all, I understand their anger, and the fifteen days of detention have made me sober up a lot and have figured out a lot of things. If I continue to mess around like this, sooner or later I will have to go to prison, and I will be a bastard for the rest of my life.

I cut off contact with a pig friend and dog friend, and like many young people who worked, I went to Guangdong, and worked several jobs before and after, and I was very miserable. is to truly understand the cruelty of reality. It's no wonder that those classmates who went out to work after junior high school and high school regretted not studying hard back then.

I sighed more and more, I was too ignorant, if An An had finished my key university, he would not have become what he is now.

Fortunately, I met Wen Tsai later and followed him to open a coffee house, which can be regarded as stabilizing.

Wen Tsai is what I met when I went to college, and speaking of it, my acquaintance with him is the only good thing I have done in the past two years.

It was in a bar, when Wen Tsai had an argument with a few gangsters because of some things, and I happened to know the gangster leader, and when I saw that this kid didn't look like a bad guy, I helped him out of the siege by the way. That's how we met.

He was a senior at the time, and now he's graduated. This guy has a solid family background, he doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking, he has two apartments in his own name, one to live in and one to rent, and a brother with a successful career to support his parents, so he can't starve to death even if he doesn't work in this life. Opening such a café is purely a hobby.

The coffee house is mainly for CUHK students, with a good location and a stable source of customers, but this kid doesn't know how to take care of it, and his business has been so-so. After I came, I went through some rectification, and the effect was remarkable. As a result, I was promoted to associate store manager.

"Luozi, will you go back to grandma's house with me during the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Wen Tsai said suddenly.

I was in front of the bookshelf in the store researching what new books to add, and when I heard him say this, I wondered: "Mid-Autumn Festival, your family is reunited, I didn't have the right past." ”

"What a reunion, it's not that you don't know the situation in my family, it's embarrassing for me to go back alone."

Although Wen Tsai's family background is solid, his family situation is somewhat complicated.

His mother and father were married for the second time, and his father had a child with his ex-wife, and he followed his ex-wife after the divorce. Later, she married his mother and gave birth to him. Later, his mother died of cancer, and his father and ex-wife saw each other again, so they remarried.

In this way, the original family of three was together again, and he seemed to be redundant, and he was in an awkward situation. His existence is a sign that there has been a rift in the relationship between the two people.

His grandmother's house is only his grandmother's house, and he is the only one who wants to pass.

"Isn't it okay if you bring your girlfriend back?" I teased.

"If I had a girlfriend, would I be able to find you!"

"Aren't there three beautiful women in the store, and with the charm of your store manager, you can't catch one?"

"Come on, all of them are famous, can you help or not?"

Before I came, there were three female clerks in the store, all of whom were S-level in height and appearance, and I thought that this kid was so lucky, and they all turned out to be objects. One of them is also a barista in the shop. That's enough for this kid.

"The store manager's eldest brother can afford me, how dare the younger brother disobey, but I can say it in advance, you know my taboo."

"Don't worry, I'll tell my grandmother in advance so that they can pay attention when they prepare meals."

I'm not fit to be a guest in someone's house, because I don't eat poultry. It's not that it's allergic, it's just that it's particularly disgusting. Also, I don't eat cilantro yet! But poultry meat and coriander are almost the norm for the holidays. It's embarrassing to be able to give advice in your own home, but to ask for others.

Since he doesn't mind, then I don't care.

Wen Tsai's grandmother's house is in Foshan, not far away, and we passed the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

His grandmother's house was in an urban village, and I didn't know what this kid said on the phone, but when he heard that we had arrived, several relatives happily went out to greet him, and when they saw me, they were stunned at first, and then showed a deep sense of disappointment.

When he entered the house, his brother-in-law asked, "Wen Zai, didn't you say that you brought your girlfriend back?" ”

"I said bring a friend, not a girlfriend."

This guy will always be lacking roots, otherwise he wouldn't be single in the whole store - I'm only here later, ignore it for now.

Fortunately, the food is very reliable, on the dinner table, pork bones, pork belly, pig brains, pig trotters, there is no plate of poultry meat, and there is no coriander. I was about to praise a few words, but I learned that his eldest aunt was allergic to poultry meat, and his second aunt was allergic to coriander. Neither of these things will ever appear in this meal!

The whole family chatted while eating, asked Wen Tsai how he had been doing over the years, what he had done after graduation, and asked me where I came from.

"Now the change is really too great, although the days are good, the place where I live has become narrower, and people can't get together a few times a year, which is like before, a big family is lively," Wen Zai's grandmother sighed, although she is old, her mind is still very clear, "When I was young, when it came to the Mid-Autumn Festival, the children in the village would gather together to play." ”

"Grandma, what did you play with when you were a kid?" Wen Tsai's little cousin asked.

"Please basket girl, take a bamboo basket, burn incense and say goodbye, sing and invite the basket girl, you can ask the basket girl! Ask whatever you want to know. ”

"Can I ask how much I scored on the test?"

"Yes, why not, Aunt Basket knows everything."

"Grandma, grandma, you teach me, then I can ask Aunt Basket about my grades!"

Wen Zai's grandmother waved her hand: "No, no, no, that's a woman playing, a boy doesn't play that." ”

"What is the boy playing? Can you ask questions? ”

Uncle Wen Tsai said: "Come on, you haven't played enough with so many toys for you?" Eat quickly. ”

The little cousin pouted dissatisfiedly.

After dinner, the adults gathered in the living room to hang out, and the TV on was playing a very boring party, which was purely an ornament, and no one watched it at all. The children all went outside to play.

Wen Tsai and I are somewhere between adults and children, and it is no problem for me to stick in and talk to people, but looking at Man Tsai's appearance is completely uninteresting, so we choose to be "children" and go out of the house.

Leaving the big family of Wen Tsai, it is deserted outside, which is a habitual urban festival performance. Little cousin, they don't know where to go. There are not many street lights in the urban villages, and the yellow lights make them look very dim. One of the street lamps didn't know what was wrong, and it flickered on and off, making people uncomfortable to look at.

Wen Tsai and I wandered aimlessly around the urban village. The flickering light was uncomfortable, so I went in the opposite direction.

The walk became more and more deserted, until there was no longer a pedestrian to be seen along the way.

"If you go over again, go out, go back." Wen Tsai said.

"Wait, did you hear anything?" I say.

"Voice?" Wen Tsai was puzzled.

I asked him to listen carefully.

The voice came and went, like a group of children reciting a book.

"Really! Is there anyone else in the kindergarten? ”

"There's a kindergarten here?"

"Yes, it's over there."

In these days, there are really people where there are not necessarily rivers and lakes, but there must be kindergartens.

It's okay anyway, let's stop by and have a look. At this point, there is no way that there are still people in the kindergarten. And it sounds like a lot of people.

The urban village said that it was not big, the closer to the direction of the kindergarten, the clearer the voice became, and the content of the recitation could be faintly heard: "Lost boy, lost soul, please your master go down to play for a while, big brother watch the cow burn incense more, people are for you, you are ......"

The sound comes and goes, and the cycle repeats. Just when I thought it would go on and on, the sound stopped abruptly.

Because my attention had been focused on the sound, the sound stopped, and for a moment I felt that the surroundings were quiet, and only the cold autumn wind was blowing back and forth, and I couldn't help but shiver.

After a while, a burst of Cantonese opera tones came, tactful and pleasant, with a good appearance, and I could vaguely hear that the singing was "Zhaojun Out of the Stopper". The person who listens to this voice should be a child.

Just now I was collectively endorsed, why did it suddenly become a singing opera?
