In fact, the second uncle is Jian Du's second uncle, but Jian Du's mother-in-law (grandmother) family came from the north, and Jian Du's family retains some northern habits for the title of relatives.

Now that the second uncle is dead, his grandfather has woken up and is about to eat a hot meal. Granny Zhang, who took care of him, went to cook hot rice, boiled it with chicken soup, and filled a big bowl, and his grandfather licked the bowl clean even after eating and drinking. Granny Zhang was still saying to Jian Jie: "I'm afraid it's back to light, it's okay, let him eat better." ”

Many of the burial items were also selected by their grandmothers, because their parents were in the funeral shop, so the coffin samples had already been ordered. The elderly generally do not shy away from these. When grandma heard Granny Zhang's words, she couldn't stop wiping her tears, and at the same time nodded: "It's time, it's time." Grandma kept crying, thinking that her second son had died so inexplicably, and now the old man was going too.

Uncle also knelt down for his grandmother and for his aunt. Jian Jue pulled up his uncle, "How can I blame you?" He himself fell into the river. "Jian Jue really can't stand it, and the guilt will force people to death.

The second aunt (Sichuan is calling aunt) jumped like thunder, grabbed Jian Jie's hair, and fought hard with him: "It's your crow's mouth talking nonsense!" Say that your second uncle is short-lived! When I was a child, I thought you were short-lived! It's long overdue! It's alive now! ”

Jian Jue's mother pushed the second aunt away like crazy, and the two women rolled on the ground pulling their clothes. Uncle rushed up to their knees and pulled them away, pushing them apart while crying, "What are you doing!" It's all family! None of them should be damned, I should be damned! ”

Jian Jue's mother showed a fierce expression in front of her relatives for the first time, she gasped, with tears in her eyes, and the tears still couldn't be saved, and they dripped down in the blink of an eye. But only the second aunt was arguing, sitting on the ground and making trouble, and her mother didn't speak, just stared at her with red eyes.

His father just appeared, he looked at his relatives on the side, and pulled his mother up: "Don't you make trouble with your sister-in-law, my brother died...... You cause less trouble... Don't see it! After saying that, he also wiped his tears.

Mom turned her head and stared at her father with disbelief eyes, "Jian Quan, Jian Quan, your own son was dragged to the ground by his hair and beaten!" Did you see it on the sidelines? That's your own son! It's not like I'm going out there to have sex with someone else! I knew he had an old man like you, so I should have gone outside to steal someone and divorce you! ”

The people in the room persuaded and pulled away. Grandma watched all this helplessly, and it seemed that grandpa was shouting in the back room, and grandma had to go and see, so she left.

Mom pulled Jian Du up, "Let's go!" Go to your aunt's house, stay here, and cause trouble. ”

dragged Jian Du to the courtyard dam, and looked at Jian Du's torn hair and dusty face distressedly. Mom held back her tears and helped Jian Du straighten her hair, "I'll be angry all my life!" When she had finished speaking, she turned her head away.

Because I was afraid that my grandfather would die suddenly, only my grandmother could not cope with it. So Jian decided to stay that night.

Grandma said to Jian Jie: "Your grandfather, when it comes to night, someone will take him away, which scares me enough." Sometimes I call him a ghost... I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well tonight. ”

Jian Jue pursed his lips and smiled: "It should be." I'm his grandson, as it should be. ”

At night, there were always people walking around outside the door, and Jian Jue was awakened once, he got up to look, and found that it was his grandfather. Grandpa took a flashlight, took a light on Jian Decision, took two steps and asked, "Where is your mother-in-law?" ”

"She slept."

"Break the baby, I want to eat, I'm hungry." Grandpa used a flashlight to shine on Jian Jie's eyes, and Jian Jie's eyes were stinging with a stinging pain, "She slept, grandpa, what's wrong with you?" ”

"I'm hungry." Grandpa muttered blankly.

The grandmother in the bedroom also got up, and as soon as she came out, she yelled at her grandfather: "Torture! Torture! You're here to ask for your life! You'll die sooner, every night! ”

"Old woman," Grandpa called Grandma helplessly, "Look, there's someone standing there at the window, and he's going to take me away." ”

"You say! That's going to take you away! You take me to see it! Grandma pulled Grandpa up and dragged him to the window to look, "You make it clear to me!" ”

Jian Jue could only persuade grandma to forget it, after all, grandpa is delirious now, and he doesn't know what he is talking about or doing.

In the second half of the night, Jane couldn't sleep and went to smoke a cigarette. Looking into the back room in the lobby, I saw my grandfather sitting alone on the edge of the bed, so I went up to ask.

"Oh, Deciduous Baby," Grandpa turned to look at him, "I see your second uncle." ”

"You..." Jian Jue was a little flustered, he didn't dare to look out the window, "Grandpa, don't talk nonsense." ”

"Your second uncle's life is miserable, he said that he was cold and panicked, and no one cared about him."

After Grandpa finished speaking, Jian Jue inserted three incense sticks outside the door, just under the door frame, directly opposite the hall, and in the same direction as Guanyin. Then Jian decided to use the light of the mobile phone to write down the location of his grandfather on paper, but it burned to the other direction of the hall, and it was a dead end. Hold some chicken feathers and burn them with chicken dung.

All this is to see if it works, I'm afraid that there are some things, not ghosts, to bother their family.

Then, braving the night wind, Jian decided to ride to the morgue where the body of the second uncle was placed, which was in their village. Because it was drowned, the cremated body had to be dried for a few days, and by the way, it was stopped together for three days before setting up the mourning hall.

As soon as Jian Du left, the flowers in the yard also ran over with Jian Jie. Jian Jue was running to the morgue with the dog. It is said to be a morgue, but it is actually the old house of the Jian Jue family, and on the other side of the morgue is the room where the ancestors' spirit tablets are placed.

Jian Jue went all the way, the morgue was locked, and Jian Jue couldn't open it. As soon as he turned around, Huahua was standing at the gate of the courtyard, a little in a circle, and it didn't dare to come in.

"How are you? Is there any quirkiness in it? Jian decided to touch Huahua's head, and Huahua was still looking at the inside of the room restlessly.

Jian Jue is very strange, it stands to reason that there should be light inside, because there is a fire inside. But it was pitch black in the room. He turned on his flashlight and looked at it, only to see a large water stain on the wall. Looking along the water stains on the wall, Jian Jue saw a water pipe flowing down, which seemed to be broken.

The next morning, Jian Jue told his uncle and cousins.

They opened the door and went in to see that the morgue was also wet and the fire was extinguished.

didn't want to see the second aunt, so Jian decided to go back directly. When he returned, he was surprised to see his grandfather having breakfast in the courtyard. Flowey walked around her grandfather, sniffed, and left.

Granny Zhang came over early in the morning, and she said to Jian Jie: "Strange thing! Your grandfather is getting more and more energetic, and this morning he drank two large bowls of porridge and said that he wanted to go out for a walk. ”

"Huh?" Jian Du was strange.

In the afternoon that followed, Grandpa was already in the field and his brothers, who were Jian Duan's uncles, were sitting together on the ridge and chatting. Jian Jue sighed, I don't know if it's a return to the light, but it's okay, it's good to be mentally not sick.

At this time, Jian Du's country cousin came to see him. My cousin is still a middle school student, and he is usually a second-rate child, doing everything to fight and grab money, but he respects Jian Decision. Because his cousin Jian Hao stepped on other people's graves in his early years, he had a high fever when he came back, and he didn't have a fever for three days.

Later, Jian decided to call him a soul, and then went to intercede with the deceased on his behalf, and Jian Hao's fever subsided.

Now that Jian Hao has learned to be obedient, he shouldn't be provoked, and he will never dare to be disrespectful from now on, and when he sees Jian Jue, he will also treat him as a life-saving benefactor. But seeing that he still looks like a hanger, he has dyed his hair in recent years, dyed his yellow hair, wore leggings, and played tunes on Douyin loudly in the field.

"yes, Brother Duel." He greeted Jian Jie, "I heard my mother-in-law say that your grandfather suddenly got better?" ”

"I don't know, I can eat it, let's get back to the light." Jian Jue said.

"Brother Chao at the head of your city, look at your hair, you got it in Chengdu?" Jian Hao touched his hair, "Don't talk about this, you don't know?" Our Jane's business. ”

Jian Jue frowned, "What did you say?" ”

"In the village, there are rumors that your grandfather is using your uncle to continue his life." Jian Hao leaned close to Jian Jie's ear and said, "Don't you give someone else to say it, I said it, what I heard is the aunt of Sanjiping." ”

Jian didn't care, he handed Jian Hao a cigarette, "Old family, superstition." ”

"I don't think so."

"Huh?"

Jian Hao patted Jian Jue's shoulder and tilted his head at him, "Said as he walked." It's not me who listened to it, it was my cousin who said it, when I was thirteen years old, you and your cousin called me soul to give me the soul before I got rid of the fever, you forgot? When you go to college, I go to see my cousin, and he tells me ghost stories at night, that is, our Jane's house is a landlord in the past, and they have a long lifespan. ”

"Well, I used to be a landlord, I know this."

"That day, my cousin said that the old man of the Jian family, my day, was engaged in the continuation of his life at the head of the house, and he survived his eldest son and daughter, leaving only one grandson. My cousin said that the old man lived to be one hundred and twenty years old! Every time he was going to die, the whole family mourning hall was ready, but the old man woke up the next day, ate three bowls of rice, and everything was fine. It's like your grandfather, my fourth grandfather. I know that I shouldn't say that, but everyone in the village knows that your grandfather is going to die like that, and suddenly your second uncle has an accident, and your grandfather will be fine. ”

"Isn't there any basis for your words, doesn't my cousin just like to make up some ghost stories to write about you? That is, you take it seriously. Jian Jue shook his head at him, "Don't believe those words, they are all superstitious and spread by the old man." ”

"Wow, Brother Duel, you just do this, don't you believe it? You're kind of funny. Anyway, as soon as they say it, I listen to it. Jian Hao didn't say anything, and waved his hand, "In the past, my fourth grandfather went to tell his fortune, and the fortune teller said that he could live to be ninety years old, and he is now 87 years old.... Alas, if you don't believe it, you can go to our ancestral hall and ask. ”
