Chapter 10 Funeral and Funeral

After the cat barked outside, the second uncle immediately turned his head and walked out of the house, I quickly dropped the comb and rubbed my hair and ran out, I can't run out with this dog licking the same hair, right? When I got outside, the third uncle and my father were driving away the cats, and sure enough, after the second uncle entered my house, the cats immediately took advantage of the loophole and began to pounce on my grandfather's body.

The second uncle walked slowly towards that side, and when the second uncle approached, the cats began to flee again, and the situation suddenly returned to its original state, and the second uncle sat in front of his grandfather's body, and the group of cats returned to the courtyard wall and roof.

They must be afraid of the second uncle, and in the same way, their unwillingness is also written on their faces, and their green eyes are staring at the second uncle in the courtyard like ghosts. I knew they would linger all night and leave at dawn.

In addition to the family, there are many close neighbors and the third uncle's horse boy in the yard, at this time, everyone looks at the second uncle differently, as if looking at an immortal, which may make the third uncle very unhappy, he snorted coldly and kicked Lao Hei and said, "What do you see?" Why don't you play with him in the future? ”

"Third brother, that can't be done." Old Black sneered.

"Let's go!" The third uncle said.

The third uncle left with his people, looking at the shadow of his departure, I became more and more uneasy, I don't want to improve the contradictory relationship between the third uncle and the second uncle now, I just beg the third uncle not to do things, but at present, it seems that the third uncle seems to be holding a breath of anger in his heart, with his temperament, it will explode sooner or later, I am afraid that it will be really out of control at that time.

After the third uncle left, the yard was quiet again, and several good neighbors wanted to come and say a few words to the second uncle, I guess they were very curious about what the second uncle used to make this group of crazy cats scared like this, but the second uncle sat there with a cold appearance that refused to be thousands of miles away, and his temperament was cold and indifferent, so that everyone did not dare to approach him, and after a while, it was too late for the neighbors to return home, I believe that soon the second uncle will become a topic of conversation after dinner. A person with special skills and seemingly a deep city is enough to make anyone curious about him.

My dad slowly walked in front of the second uncle, and he handed the second uncle a cigarette: "Changsheng, the previous thing was that my father and mother did not do it right, and now that they are gone, let go of what should be put down." Here are your roots, after all. ”

The second uncle closed his eyes and did not speak.

My dad tapped him on the shoulder, sighed and turned back to the house.

"Second uncle, what my dad said is right, grandparents are gone, some things should not be too careful, it is not right for parents to give away their children, but think about it on the other hand, if it is not too difficult, which parent is willing to give away his child? And you are living a good life now, and you have all the skills, I feel that you are living a wonderful life, like me, you can see through your future at a glance. I said.

The second uncle opened his eyes, he looked at me, and at that moment I saw an incomparable coldness in his eyes.

"That's you'll never know what I've been through."

His voice was very soft, not hysterical, but this sentence shook my ears like thunder, and then exploded in my heart, at this moment, I even felt a little sorry for the second uncle in front of me.

What kind of desperation did he go through to say such a thing?

I opened my mouth and wanted to persuade him that he could only see the rainbow after the wind and rain, and his experience led to his current achievements, but I couldn't say this sentence after all, but fortunately, I didn't see too much hatred in the eyes of the second uncle.

I tried to restore the experience of the second uncle again, and I found that this is a question that there is no way to answer: Grandpa personally pushed the second uncle into a fire pit, although in this fire pit the second uncle was reborn. At this time, should the second uncle hate his grandfather, or should he be grateful to his grandfather?

I don't want to talk to my second uncle about this heavy topic anymore, I am afraid that the meager uncle-nephew relationship that the two of us have built up with great difficulty will be wiped out under the anger of the second uncle, and after a moment of silence, I asked the second uncle: "Second uncle, you saved me when I was combing my hair just now, did you see that female ghost?" ”

He nodded.

"You're sure you can deal with her, why didn't you clean her up?" I asked again.

"If she's really afraid of me, she'll come." The second uncle said.

He didn't answer, but it was the same as answering, what else did I want to ask, the second uncle waved his hand and said, "What did she say to you?" ”

As soon as the second uncle asked this, my face turned red all of a sudden, but I still said bluntly: "She asked me if she was good-looking, I was frightened and said that she was good-looking, and she said that I lied." ”

I thought the second uncle was trying to get some clues from me, and I was waiting for him to give me an answer to what the female ghost asked me what this meant, but the second uncle looked at me and said, "You can remember all the things after being put on the body, can't your father?" ”

"Huh?" I was subconsciously stunned for a moment, but I immediately reacted to the meaning of the second uncle's words! My dad would be like a normal person the next day after combing his hair at night, I thought he had forgotten everything he had experienced at night, and my second uncle's words undoubtedly woke me up, I remember everything, and my dad naturally did the same!

Although he doesn't know how to comb his hair, he will also remember the dream-like experience of the female ghost after she got on her body!

But he behaved normally, what does this mean? It shows that my dad is hiding something!

I wanted to ask my dad on impulse, but my second uncle stopped me and said, "If he wants to say it, he will naturally tell you, and you can't ask what he doesn't want to say." ”

I'm in a hurry, I can't do the second uncle's indifference, but I also know that what the second uncle said makes sense, I sat down again, and said in my heart, Is there this female ghost in my father's dream asking him if I am beautiful? Fucking the same female ghost who teased me like this, my dad came to tease me again, isn't this fucking nonsense? In this moment, I changed from fear to disgust for this female ghost!

You're so fucking unprincipled!

"What then?" I looked at the second uncle and asked.

"Wait." The second uncle said softly.

I accompanied the second uncle in the yard for a night of watch, until dawn grandpa three days of suspension ended, a few years ago the rural funeral reform required cremation can not be buried, but into the earth for peace has long been the deep-rooted idea of the rural elderly, they think that only the evil people in the world will suffer from the fire after death, so in those years there are almost no serious funerals, many are in the old man after the death of the night secretly buried even dare not leave a grave. That is, in the past two years, it has slowly begun to re-emerge to do funerals, I personally can not comment on the funeral reform, but the premise of the legal system is always people-oriented, as far as the grandfather's funeral is concerned, although in just half a month I sent away two close relatives, the family still has to follow the rules.

When people are born, their families look forward to joy.

When people leave, relatives and friends play mourning music to send each other off.

It's like a reincarnation.

No matter how angry the third uncle is, he feels uncomfortable, most of the things in the grandfather's funeral are also Zhang Luo from him, including the grandfather's coffin bearer is also arranged by him, for the funeral in the countryside, when to seal the coffin nail, when to go out of the funeral, and when to fall into the ground for peace are all particular, what I think in my heart is that the second uncle is a strange person and the most powerful master I have ever seen, he is absolutely easy to see the time, but the second uncle has no intention of helping, I have no choice but to invite Mrs. Li early in the morning, she is a goddess, On weekdays, he also came to see things in several villages within a radius of this area.

After meeting Mrs. Li, she has been asking me about the origin of my second uncle, and she also heard that my second uncle suppressed the group of crazy wild cats alone, of course, Mrs. Li has a professional name, that is, my grandfather committed cat trouble, and my second uncle is the person who suppressed cat evil.

Don't say I don't know the origin of the second uncle, even if I know it, I can't say too much to outsiders, Mrs. Li didn't ask much when I saw that I couldn't say it, she flipped through her yellowed yellow calendar and calculated for a while and wrote the hour on a piece of white paper, this is called a funeral post, it is to use white paper, and if it is a happy event, it is called a wedding card on red paper, and in some places it is called a book sticker, which is to be sent to the woman's house on the day of marriage, of course, this is a foreign language and will not mention it for the time being.

After I got the hour to go back, wait until half past ten, relatives farewell, the body into the coffin, seal the coffin nail, the so-called people cover the coffin for a lifetime is nothing more than that, grandpa in the village is not a respected person, can only be said to be an ordinary old man, but my father is a teacher, my third uncle is a scene character, so almost half of the villagers in the village came, the closest relatives are clothed in linen, and Dai Xiao is also grand.

After the memorial service, the coffin will be raised, thinking of the grandfather's life, and the atmosphere of mourning and music makes my eyes sour, under the guidance of the coffin master, the coffin bearer gets up the coffin and goes out of the funeral.

But Grandpa's coffin.

Eight laborers in the prime of life could not lift them.
