"Don't you feel weak?" Grandpa asked.

"Nope." I tried to jump twice, but my legs were a little numb after sitting for too long, like a lot of sand hitting my skin.

Hong Danian looked at me in disbelief: "Why don't you feel tired?" "What he means is that if I lie on the ground now and wait for someone else to help him up, I will be satisfied.

I also reacted with hindsight and noticed that I was different. Why didn't I stand up and fall down like my grandfather and Hong Danian?

Grandpa said, "If you feel unwell, you must do it." "Grandpa is afraid that I am gritting my teeth and holding on to my current appearance.

I really didn't feel sick, what did I say?

Someone next to him asked, "Do you want to go to Hong Jiafu's house now?" I'm afraid he's already asleep. He was busy all day in the field today. ”

Grandpa thought for a moment: "Then let's go tomorrow." Anyway, today's paper money can't be burned anymore. I'm tired of the village chief and I, so let's stop here today. After Grandpa finished speaking, he looked at Hong Danian's opinion with an inquiring eye. Hong Danian nodded, his eyes were still obviously bloodshot, and it was estimated that it hurt him enough just now.

The moon in the sky is as round as a tea tray, it is already fifteen, and if things are not resolved, the ghost door will be closed.

When I returned to the house arranged by the Red Year that night, my grandfather was already very tired. The windows of that house were round, without mullions, and covered only with a layer of window paper. The shadows of the peach trees outside fell on the window paper, mottled and mottled.

Grandpa said, "I hope tomorrow will be like that." He didn't mean to say it to me, but as if he was talking to himself or praying. I don't know what he meant by "that." I was about to ask, but Grandpa's snoring was already ringing. He fell asleep as soon as his head was next to the pillow.

When I think about those old days now, I can't help but feel sad. In the past, my grandfather snored quickly when he slept, but now he can't sleep after many years, and I still hear him coughing in the middle of the night. I wonder if he thinks about the old days when he can't sleep. In the past, my grandmother was still alive, and my uncle didn't go out to work, so I was always by his side. And now, my grandmother has passed away, my uncle is working outside, and I am studying in the far northeast. He was alone in the whole house, and when he got up in the middle of the night to drink tea, would he stare at the moon outside the window in a daze.

Of course, when sleeping in the house arranged by the Red Year, who would think about this in front of the full moon at that time?

I never expected to miss that time so much after all these years. I only thought about the other half of the ancient book that I hadn't found yet. I'm only worried about whether I'll catch the poor thirsty man tomorrow.

I thought about the meaning of "moving chairs and leaning on the moon for a long time", but I finally couldn't get an answer, so I fell asleep with questions.

The next morning, my grandfather and I had breakfast at Hong Danian's house, and we went to Hong Jiafu's house with Hong Danian.

Hong Jiafu was brushing his teeth under the eaves, white foam filling his mouth. When he saw us coming, he hurriedly took a sip of water, spit it out in his mouth for a while, and said with a smile: "What is the important matter for the village chief to come to my house so early, right?" ”

Hong Danian said with a displeased face: "Talking in the house." ”

Seeing that the village chief's tone was wrong, Hong Jiafu hurriedly packed up the toothbrush and water cup and took us into the house. He brought us a few wooden chairs to sit down, made three more cups of hot tea and handed them to us, and then sat down with the village chief.

"What's the matter?" Hong Jiafu asked, "The village chief, let me tell you, if you want me to send some fruit to my father's grave, I can do it." ”

"I didn't say you didn't send it yet, did you?" Hong Danian said angrily, "I know that you kid is stingy." ”

Hong Jiafu smiled awkwardly, and a pair of wet hands brushing his teeth rubbed on his pants.
