When I walked around with my grandmother and came home, Mr. Zhang and his family had been waiting in the hall for a while, and when I saw my grandmother enter the door, Mr. Zhang helped Grandma Zhang stand up from the stool, and my grandmother hurriedly waved her hand to ask them to sit down, and asked them if they had eaten, Mr. Zhang hurriedly said that he had eaten, and after speaking, he helped Grandma Zhang to sit back on the bench. :3wし

I followed behind my grandmother, and after hiding behind my grandmother and glancing at Boss Zhang, I secretly glanced at Grandma Zhang again, Grandma Zhang drooped her head at this time, stunned, and opened her eyes, but the whole person looked as if she hadn't woken up, and the scary red blood in the beads of her eyes was gone, her eyes were straight, staring at the ground for a moment, and the gray hair on her head was not messy, and the big pimple was combed on the back of her head, and there was a black hair sleeve like a net pocket on it. Grandma Zhang's hairstyle is the unified hairstyle of the old ladies at that time, and my grandmother is also a big pimple in the back, with a black net pocket, but, looking at Grandma Zhang's current situation, it is unlikely that she will comb her hair by herself.

As soon as my grandmother left the house, she grabbed me with her hand, as if she was afraid that I would run away, and pulled me to sit down on the stool opposite Mr. Zhang's wife, and just sat down, my mother led my younger brother into the house, and my mother asked my grandma: "Mom, when are we going to eat?" Grandma said, "Don't worry, you and Huangshan eat first, and I will eat with Huanghe later." ”

My mother didn't say anything when she heard my grandmother say this, she glanced at Boss Zhang, turned around and led her younger brother to the East House for dinner.

In the hall, grandma stared at Grandma Zhang for a while, and asked Boss Zhang: "Big brother, what's wrong with my sister, why do I feel different from the last time." ”

When grandma asked, I saw Boss Zhang's face immediately bitter, and after a pause, Boss Zhang sighed and said, "Alas...... Still don't you make those children in our family angry, Sister Bai, we came to you today just to ask if you have any ways to help us. ”

"What? What's the idea? "My grandmother was puzzled.

Boss Zhang continued: "It's in those spells in your family...... Is there any way to make a son filial? ”

I glanced at my grandmother, there was a hint of crying and laughing on my grandmother's face, I looked at Boss Zhang again, Boss Zhang looked forward to it, I couldn't help but speak on the side, I said: "Yes, Grandpa Zhang, there is a way." ”

Grandma and Boss Zhang looked at me at the same time, Grandma looked surprised, and Boss Zhang hurriedly asked me, "What's the way?" ”

I said, "They don't listen to you, so you throw them into the well." ”

When Boss Zhang heard what I said, there was a hint of crying and laughing on his face, and my grandmother raised her hand and slapped me on the head, "It's nonsense......

Grandma smiled at Boss Zhang and said, "There are only ghosts in these crafts in our family, and there is no way to treat people, and my children and grandchildren are filial or not." ”

Boss Zhang was disappointed when he heard this, and sighed again.

My grandmother asked, "What happened to the eldest sister last time, I looked like I was in an evil spirit, can you tell me no?" ”

Boss Zhang looked at my grandmother, and then looked at Grandma Zhang, and said helplessly: "Last time, last time, the child and his mother quarreled with the rabbit cubs, and the rabbit cubs were angry, and then told me that they wanted to go to our daughter's house for a few days, who knows, and lay on the ground halfway to the ground, and did not move, as if asleep, and then the people of our village passed by on the road and saw her, and gave our family a little letter......

"Where did you fall asleep?" Before Boss Zhang finished speaking, my grandmother asked again.

"In ......," Boss Zhang thought for a while, "just under the highway bridge......"

Under the highway bridge that Boss Zhang said, in fact, under the bridge of National Highway 107, there is the Beijing-Guangzhou railway line from here to the south of our village, and there are two rivers in the south of the Beijing-Guangzhou line, one is the "Wei River" mentioned before, which is the mass grave, and the other is still in the south of the Wei River, which is narrower than the Wei River, and the distance between the two rivers is probably less than 200 meters.

National Highway 107 passes through us, and it needs to cross a railway line and two rivers, and if it is not practical to dig a tunnel under the railway line and under the river, then a bridge must be built to cross it. In the past, people here didn't know it was a national highway and said it was a highway.

National Highway 107 this bridge, I don't remember when it was built, I can't remember when it was opened to traffic, at that time, it seems that it hasn't been open to traffic for a long time, the bridge should not be long, I remember that once the teacher also took us to the bridge to visit, after coming back to write about the feelings, at that time the bridge has been built, the bridge is doing late construction, throwing reinforced concrete everywhere, in the end what grade to visit the bridge, I really can't remember, I only remember that I seemed to have a little feeling for my female classmate at that time, and after returning to school, the two of us discussed how to write about the aftermath, at that time, it was really sweet and happy, alas......

Boss Zhang continued: "After pulling the child and his mother home, I woke up on the kang, but I sat against the wall on the kang and talked nonsense. ”

My grandmother hurriedly asked, "What did you say?" ”

Boss Zhang shook his head bitterly, "I don't understand, it's all foreign dialect, it sounds like a man's voice, I look like I've hit an evil spirit, I want to come to your house to find you, what about my son, don't call me over, say that their mother is pretending to be crazy and stupid, pretending, and later, the child and his mother don't move when they sit on the bed." ”

Hearing Boss Zhang say this, Grandma pondered for a while, and then asked, "Don't you understand a word, what accent do you sound like?" ”

Boss Zhang was stunned, as if recalling the situation of the day, and after a while, Boss Zhang said: "By the way, she said 'cold', so I quickly burned the kang for her, and then she said, 'I want to go home', maybe 'I want to go home', I can't hear the accent anywhere, and I can't understand it, so I asked her, do you want to go back to your parents' house?" She ignored me again, and then she sat with her eyes closed, not eating, and not waking up when she screamed. As for the beasts in our family, they felt that their mother could not survive, so they discussed using the wood stored at home to make a coffin. Speaking of this, Boss Zhang sighed again, and then said, "Isn't it, when you came to our house, the child woke up again?" ”

Grandma hurriedly asked again: "Did the eldest sister tell you anything after we left?" ”

Boss Zhang shook his head, "I didn't say anything, after you led your grandson away, the brutes of my family quarreled with our old couple again, saying that I called you home, and the coffin was made in vain, and the child was angry...... Look at it, look at it, it's like this. ”

My grandmother sighed lightly, stood up from the stool and walked to Grandma Zhang, one hand held Grandma Zhang's forehead, the other hand propped up her upper and lower eyelids, squinted her eyes and looked, I saw that Grandma Zhang's eyes that were stretched open by my grandmother were still motionless, it felt like a dead man's eyes, old and scary.

Grandma looked at it and let go of her hand and sat back on the stool, grandma said to Boss Zhang: "Big brother, my sister didn't bump into anything this time, this is a real disease, you can find a doctor in the village for her to see." ”

Boss Zhang nodded and said helplessly: "I know it's a disease, but ...... But what's the use of curing it, if the beast quarrels with her again, doesn't he still have to commit it? I thought, is there any way to make our children not quarrel with us, and our old couple can live a little better. ”

My grandmother shook her head, there is a way to make the family harmonious in this world, but it is witchcraft, you have to bury things in the door of the house and in the living room, grandma has only heard of it, but does not understand that.

After Grandma chatted with Boss Zhang a few more words, Boss Zhang helped Grandma Zhang away with a disappointed face, Grandma kept sending them on the way outside, and then came back with a sigh, there is a way, men are afraid of entering the wrong line, women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, in fact, these two things are not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is to have a few children without conscience!

After breakfast, I saw that there was nothing wrong, so I told my mother and took my younger brother to play with Qiang Shun Mingjun.

In fact, in the winter, in addition to snow, for us children, there is nothing fun, can not catch "mom", can not pick wild fruits, let alone go to the pit to play in the water to catch frogs, even up the tree to dig the nest in the nest there is no chicks, the big bird did not wait for us to climb to the tree flutter a little and flew away, in case of another call to the branch to cut a big hole in the cotton clothes, go home will inevitably be another beating, if it can snow a little, but also in the yard to sweep out a clearing, sprinkle a few grains of wheat, with a big sieve to buckle the sparrows.

However, it's not that there is nothing to play at all, we also have an entertainment project that can be fun and warm, what is it - let go of the wasteland.

What is "wasteland", that is, to play with some weeds in the field, I don't know where the word "wasteland" came from, we used to be here in the winter, after the weeds withered and yellowed, some adults will light the weeds on the slopes and ravines, and the name is: "wasteland".

In the first few years, the purpose of the wasteland was to burn the grass in the field and plant crops for the next year, and at that time a little bit of the field was planted with crops, and the only place where there were no crops was left under the railway slope and the 107 National Highway.

At this time, the weeds on the railway slope of our house have basically been burned for us, and if we want to release the wasteland, we have to get under the 107 National Highway farther away, where there is a large area of wild land, and at that time, it was considered a deserted place.

As soon as a few of our bear children met, each of us stole a box of matches from home and headed for National Highway 107.

Of course, children like us don't follow the rules along the road, we take the train track, at that time we have not installed protective nets on both sides of the railway here, climb up the slope is the railway, the path on both sides of the railway is not uncommon for us to walk, step on the asphalt sleepers in the middle of the track, we call it "slip railway". Sometimes, you can also pick up an aluminum can or something on the railway, very happy, once the Ming army also picked up half a pack of ham sausages, which said "mud sausage", crooked, the color is a little dark and gray, we have never seen what it is, it smells good, and I have the courage to taste it, and we have a few rural babies who opened foreign meat that time.

Of course, not only can you pick up things on the railway, but there are also unlucky, there is a beer bottle thrown down from the train in our village hit the head, the head is broken and bleeding, in the past the carriage is a green car, the window can be opened, and at that time the railway often ran over people, when I was a child, I did not go to the railway to see the dead, but those dead people are covered with mats, at most you can see the blood under the mat, or the feet exposed outside. I remember one time, there was a person who didn't seem to be hit by a train, as if someone was pushed off the train, because the train hit was dead and dead, this person had sound arms and legs, but he was lying on the ground motionless, he was about 20 years old, there was not much blood on his body, and there was gas, what impressed me the most was that the person had blood and snot in his nostrils, he inhaled and exhaled, and the bloody snot moved and moved, and it made people tremble when they looked at it. At that time, communication was not developed, and there was no telephone or anything, and it was good to have someone come over at night if something happened during the day. Later, I heard that the man had documents on his body, and that he was from Sichuan, and he was lying on the ground for two or three hours before he died.

For a period of time, there were many lonely ghosts on the railway, and in the middle of the night they could hear crying and screaming on the railway, but they did not dare to enter the village, because there was someone in our village who could cry better than them.

We walked along the railway, playing as we went, and soon came to the bottom of the bridge on National Highway 107......
