Chapter 6 White Apricot Blossoms

Not long after my mother and my third uncle helped me into the house and lay down, my dad came back.

My dad brought in the veterinarian, but it was useless, the cow was already dead, and it had already been disemboweled.

But that's fine, it just so happened that the veterinarian helped my dad and my third uncle to slaughter the cow together, and they also took the cow into the water to stir-fry vegetables and drink a small drink.

After the cow was killed, everyone in the village came to buy beef, and the whole cow was quickly divided, which was regarded as recovering some losses for the family.

During this time, I was humming and lying in the house, and my mother didn't have time to tell my dad about me, and when everyone dispersed in the evening, she dragged my dad into the room and told me about it.

When my dad heard about me, he was also worried, and immediately said to my mother: "This can't be done, if you let Yiji carry it like this, I don't know what it will look like, you still have to take him to find someone to see." ”

"Who are you looking for, my grandmother has been dead for more than a year," my mother said helplessly.

At that time, my father saw that I was burning, so he said to my mother: "It's okay, you go to Nancun to find that Yausong's family, she seems to have been very close to my grandmother before, and she may have learned a little." ”

Listening to my father's words, my mother's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but say: "Yes, looking for her is a little unlucky, you know her, her man died in the spring, and the people in the village say that she is the white tiger spirit broom Xingkefu." ”

My mother's words made my father roll his eyes for a while, and he said to her for a long time: "I know that you women must be talking nonsense in private, that pine was accidentally killed by a brick when he went to the kiln, can he rely on others?" You listen to me, hurry up and take a trace to her, I don't know what happened when it's late. ”

"Go now? It's getting dark this day, isn't it good to go now? "My mom was a little hesitant when she saw that it was getting dark outside.

"You still want to wait for tomorrow, can you see if your son can hold out until then?" My dad lit a cigarette, pulled me out of bed, put shoes on my shoes, and said to my mom, "If you don't go, I'll go." ”

"I'd better go, you watch the door at home," Seeing that my dad was going, my mom hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and then helped me out.

I was burned to the ground at this time, and I didn't know it, so I could only follow my mother to the money.

Not long after walking outside, the sky was already dark, there were no street lights in the village, there was no electricity at that time, and every house was lit with kerosene lamps and candles, so it was very dark in the village, but fortunately there was a hairy moon in the sky, and it was barely possible to see the road clearly.

I walked all the way forward, and unconsciously came to a four-way intersection, and the road surface was white under the moon, as if a layer of frost had fallen.

At this moment, I suddenly felt a cold wind blowing next to me, so cold that I shivered, and when I turned my head to look, I found that there was a big grave on the side of the road, and there was a banyan tree on the grave, it was July, and the crown of the banyan tree was black and pressed, like a big umbrella, and it was opened, covering the entire grave.

It was at that grave that I saw a man standing on it waving to me.

When I saw this scene, I felt that the skin on my whole body was wrinkled, and I didn't know why my legs fell to the ground as if they had been filled with lead, and I couldn't lift them even if I was killed.

My mother grabbed my arm and dragged me forward, and when she saw my eyes looking straight at the grave, she hurriedly covered my eyes and said urgently: "A trace, don't look around, even if you see something, don't say, go quickly, go with my mother!" ”

Luckily, my mom covered my eyes in time to regain my soul and my legs to self-consciousness, and then I ran all the way forward in a panic.

Finally, we arrived at our destination, outside the gate of the Yaumatsu house.

Speaking of this tabuliformis pine, it is not surprising that I am still my distant cousin in terms of seniority, after all, in a small place, as long as it is a person in a village, if you calculate it carefully, it is a bit of a relative.

This tabuliformis pine and I are a little related.

However, I am not very familiar with the pine of China, one is more than ten years older than me, and he is not the same age as me, and the two of us are relatively far apart, so we have never played together since we were children.

However, even so, I still know a little about this tabuliformis pine, especially his daughter-in-law, and I know more about it.

His daughter-in-law, I heard that she bought it from other places, seems to be from Yunnan or somewhere, at the beginning, she couldn't even speak to us, and she lived here for nearly two years before she could speak our words.

What is the original name of this woman, no one knows, after she arrived here, she re-registered, her name is Bai Xinghua, she rarely goes out on weekdays, and usually stays at home, so I basically haven't seen her much, only seen the side from afar, and intuitively feels that she is a very "foreign" woman, anyway, it is different from the local girls in our village, at least the waist is not as thick as theirs.

She usually likes to wear a moon-white cardigan, the pants are cyan, the shoes have not been seen clearly, as for her appearance, it is not very clear, in short, the face is very white, and the facial features are very exquisite.

The daughter-in-law of the Yausong family is very strange, reasoning, other daughters-in-law who have been bought, generally in the first two years, must have been thinking day and night to escape, but this woman is different, not only does she not run, but also has a good life with Yaumatsu, the house and the outside are cleaned up, very neat, it is her bad luck, Yausong is also a thin life, after getting married, it was hot for less than a year, and she kicked her leg and died, so this woman became a little widow.

Because of these reasons, there are a lot of rumors about her in Murakami, and the reason why I know her is because I heard other people's nonsense.

But in fact, Bai Xinghua is a very well-behaved person, especially after Yaumatsu died, she rarely went out in order not to let people gossip, so I basically haven't seen her shadow for most of the past six months.

Obviously, before this, she and I were completely two worlds people, and it was difficult for life to intersect, even if it was the kind of old age that never got along, and I never intended to change this status quo.

So this time I actually took the initiative to go to her house, which gave me a somewhat awkward feeling, not that I disliked the widow and was unlucky, but I felt a little weird, and I couldn't tell what it felt.

But now the situation no longer allows me to call the shots, my mother dragged me to the door of Bai Xinghua's house, and then knocked on the door.

Not long after knocking on the door, someone inside shouted and asked who it was.

My mother reported to the house and told me about me, and Bai Xinghua opened the door.

That was the first time I could see the white apricot blossoms in front of me.

Seriously, I felt like I was watching a movie at the time, and I always felt that the person in front of me didn't belong to our time.

She is holding a lamp in her hand, which is a white oval lantern with folds, and there are some words on it, and the clothes she is wearing are even more ancient, the upper body is a floral gown, the lower body is brown and black pants, and the feet are square cloth shoes made by herself, and the shoes are embroidered with a phoenix or a chicken or something, it is too dark to see clearly, her hair is coiled, her facial features are very comfortable, thin eyebrows and big eyes, small lips, and her neck is snow-white, and she looks like an ancient person, if you pinch a handkerchief in your hand, I definitely thought she had crossed over from the Qing Dynasty.

There is a very good fragrance on the white apricot blossom, which seems to be the fragrance of the apricot blossom, and it can be smelled as soon as the door is opened.

It's also strange to say, at that time, I burned the sky darkly, and my consciousness was already blurred, but when I saw the white apricot blossom and smelled the fragrance on her body, I suddenly became much more sober, and my spirit also came a little.

However, this did not completely alleviate my symptoms, and I was still weak, so I kept standing with my mom's arm in my arms, looking shaky, and didn't say anything to her.

My mother stepped forward to talk to Bai Xinghua, briefly introduced my situation to her, and asked her to help me take a look.

What people didn't expect was that after Bai Xinghua listened to my mother's words, she shook her head and said: "Second aunt, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't help you, it's really my Taoism is not enough, I have only learned it for less than a year with my grandmother, I really don't understand this great spell of the Heavenly Gate." You see, why don't you go and find someone else, okay? ”
