"Grandpa, aren't all the coffins buried in the ground? Why is there still a section on the ground? I looked at the two-thirds of the coffins that had reached the ground, and asked my grandfather beside me in puzzlement.

Grandpa touched his chin and explained: "If the coffin is buried deeply, it is called a cellar, which is very bad for the living, and all must be left on it!" ”

Listening to my grandfather's words, I ate the biscuit in my hand, my eyes flashing, and I looked at the people who were constantly filling the coffin.

We have a rule here, anyone who goes to the cemetery to help, one person is given a pair of white gloves, after the work in the cemetery, must not leave empty-mouthed, must eat some biscuits, drink two sips of liquor, when going home, before entering the house, everyone must wash their faces at the door of the family of the deceased, eat a biscuit or two, before entering the house,

The grave was soon buried, and my grandfather glanced at the family members who were burning the paper, and said to me, "It's nothing to do with you, you can go back now!" ”

I wish my grandfather had said that, but before he could finish speaking, I walked with my cousin Gao Wei in the direction where I came.

When I came, I carried the coffin, and we walked very slowly, but when I came back, it didn't take me ten minutes for my cousin and I to appear at the entrance of the village.

"I said, brother, why are you here to carry the coffin?"

Gao Wei shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "It's not your grandfather yet, you have to let me make up the numbers, otherwise, do you think I can carry it?" ”

I smiled and teased: "If you say this, let grandpa hear it, I think you will be beaten by him on the head!" ”

"He's not here either, unless you go and sue him!"

I rubbed my hands together and said with a wicked smile: "Cousin, if you give me some benefits, I promise I won't tell grandpa!" ”

As soon as he heard what I said, Gao Wei didn't even look at me, turned around and walked into the distance.

Seeing that I was being ignored, I chased forward, "Cousin, I don't ask for much, as long as you give me your newly bought fishing rod, I will forget about it!" ”

"Get out!" Looking at the angry look on Gao Wei's face, I laughed and walked into the distance

"Uncle Zhao, is Erfei at home?" As soon as I finished eating, I went home and changed into a set of clothes, and then I came to Erfei's house.

Hearing my question, Erfei's father raised his head to sweep the yard and bowed his head, "Erfei, where is he sleeping in the house, you go to him!" After saying that, he continued to sweep the yard.

I knew his character, ignored him, walked towards the house, and as soon as I entered the house, I saw that Er Fei was having a big mouth, snoring, and sleeping soundly.

Because Erfei has a very serious rhinitis, when sleeping, you must sleep with your mouth open.

I stretched out my right hand and covered Er Fei's big mouth, and after a while, Er Fei's face turned red from being suffocated, and he opened my hand covering his mouth, looking at me with anger in his eyes, "Gao Tian, didn't I say it, you are going to wake me up like this, I am anxious with you!" ”

I grimaced at Er Fei and said slowly: "Are you going to the Dalijia melon field tonight, he said that someone stole his watermelon!" ”

When Er Fei heard what I said, there was no sleepiness in his eyes, he quickly sat up and said to me, "What's the situation, someone still steals his watermelon?" ”

"Yes, so tonight, he wants to find a few people to go to his melon shack and help him catch the melon thief together, right?"

"Go, there's free watermelon to eat, can I not go!"

Looking at Er Fei wearing only pants and dancing on the bed, I was speechless for a while. "By the way, vigorously said that the evening will be served, should your case of beer be in place?"

As soon as he heard my words, Er Fei immediately wilted, and said with some pity: "Brother Tian, can't you let me go?" ”

"No, remember to come to me at three o'clock in the afternoon with a beer, or hum." After speaking, without waiting for Erfei to speak, I walked out of the house.

"Xiaotian, why did you leave so quickly?" Seeing that I was leaving, Erfei's father was stunned, every time he came to his house, he wouldn't leave if he didn't stay for an hour or two!

I smiled slightly and said, "There's something going on at home, so I'll leave first!" ”

"What, you're going to the Hercules melon field at night?" Grandpa's voice came from inside the house.

As soon as I got home, I told my grandfather that we were going to go to Dali's melon field in the evening and stay with Dali for one night, but I didn't expect him to react so much!

"What's the matter, grandpa, can't you?" I asked, confused.

Grandpa saw the confusion on my face and sighed, he knew that if he didn't let me go, I would definitely go back tonight, so he took off a copper coin the size of the bottom of a bowl with a string around his neck, and said to me seriously: "Xiaotian, I have no objection to you going, but you must bring this copper coin with you!" ”

I reached out and took the copper coin handed by my grandfather, the copper coin exuded a warm breath, I looked at the copper coin curiously, and found that both sides of the copper coin were some strange symbols, and asked, "Grandpa, what is this?" ”

"Let you take it, you will take it, where is the nonsense! Also, today is seventeen, remember that after eight o'clock in the evening, don't wander around, go back to the shack early to sleep, do you hear? "Looking at my absent-minded appearance, grandpa came up and kicked it.

I rubbed my buttocks and said with some dissatisfaction, "I heard grandpa!" ”

"Remember, don't wander around after eight o'clock, or I'll be like Hong Wei, and I won't care about you!"

Originally, I listened absentmindedly to what my grandfather said, but when he said this, my body was excited, and I asked with some doubts: "Grandpa, do you mean that there is a strong melon field?" ”

"I'm not sure, but the yin qi is very heavy there, you just need to be careful!" After speaking, Grandpa walked out of the house.

I glanced at the copper coin in my hand and hurriedly put it on my neck, for fear that I would accidentally leave it somewhere.

"Grandpa, is Gao Tian at home?" Erfei's voice came from outside the room.

"Erfei, I'm here and there!" I shouted at Erfei outside the window.

"Hurry up, Gao Tian, everyone is waiting for you!"

"Here," I said, getting up and walking outside the house

"I said, I bought all the beer, and you guys won't help carry it, do you want me to carry it to the melon field by myself?" Erfei carried the wine box, and his face showed anger.

The army glanced at Erfei, and said with some dissatisfaction: "I said Erfei, you can't carry it after buying beer today, and you can carry it every day when we buy a few of us, why is this?" ”

Er Fei was asked by the army, he didn't speak, and walked forward with his head bored.

Dalijia melon field, not too far from our village, after leaving the village, after walking for three or four minutes, a large watermelon field appeared in front of the four of us, looking at the watermelons all over the ground, Erfei put down the wine box, this pat, that look.

At this moment, he vigorously walked out of the shack on the west side of the melon field and said to Erfei: "Erfei, don't look for it, I just finished laying melons today!" Hurry up and carry the beer into the shack! ”

As soon as the four of us entered the shack, the space that was not too big was filled all at once, and when I saw the dishes on the table, I was a little dissatisfied and said: "I said vigorously, you are too inauthentic, just these three dishes!" ”

"How can this be called three dishes, look at this cucumber, this green onion!"

I opened my mouth to interrupt the vigorous words and said, "Stop, isn't this just a dipping pickle, if it weren't for the face of this plate of pig's head meat, the four of us would have to kick you today!" ”

Dali smiled, and said a little embarrassed: "Let's drink it now, or wait a while to drink it?" ”

Da Ming picked up a stick of beer at this time and touched it, thought for a while and said, "Dali, isn't there a well on the edge of your melon field?" Who's going to get some water, town some beer! ”

The five of us, you look at me, I look at you, then Er Fei said: "You don't have to look at me, I'm not going anyway," After saying this, Er Fei lay down on the bed.

Seeing Erfei's appearance, I said helplessly to Daming: "Let's go, let's let Erfei drink warm beer for a while." After saying that, I picked up the bucket on the shack floor and walked towards the west side of the road in the melon field.

Seeing that I was going to fetch water, Da Ming picked up another bucket on the ground and walked with me towards the well.

This well on the edge of the Dalijia melon field is the oldest well in our village, and my grandfather once said that he had this well when he was a child. Now every family has a well, and this well is now rarely used.

The well is not too far from the shack, only one or two hundred meters, Daming and I came to the well after a while, looked at the wellhead of the granite rampart, which was covered with moss, and asked Daming: "Is the well near your house filled in?" ”

"It was filled up last year, and my dad said it was useless to keep it, and if anyone didn't want to jump into the well, we still had the responsibility."

I nodded when I heard this, put the bucket in my hand with a rope and threw it into the well, looked at the sky and said, "It's past six o'clock, it's still so bright, let's hurry up and fetch water and go back!" After speaking, he lifted the bucket that had been filled with clean water, poured half of it for Daming, and walked towards the shack.

As soon as I left, I didn't notice that bubbles were bubbling on the otherwise calm water in the well.

Looking at the whole case of beer in the bucket, I ate a peanut and said to Dali, "Dali, you can't go and give us a whole watermelon!" ”

Originally, he was looking down at the strength of the novel in his hand, and when he heard my words, he said without raising his head: "If you eat watermelon now, you won't be able to drink beer for a while, so let's wait until you finish drinking and eat watermelon!" ”

"I said the beer is good, it's almost eight o'clock, you don't drink it myself!" The army reached out and took out a bottle of beer from the barrel, opened it with his teeth, took a sip and said again: "The temperature is just right now, why don't you drink it quickly!" ”

Seeing that the army began to drink, all four of us walked towards the bucket, each picked up a bottle and began to drink.

Originally, there was no atmosphere at all, but when the second bottle of beer was in the stomach, the two fat and they made a fist and came to the atmosphere.

But when I was about to finish the second bottle, I suddenly felt a chill in my body, a chill appeared in my back, and I looked towards the shack, the sun had set, and due to the seventeenth reason of the lunar calendar, the moon in the sky illuminated the melon field miserably white.

At this moment, I suddenly felt someone pat me, and when I looked back, I found that I had drunk a little drunk and hazy Erfei, and said to me: "Gao Tian, we are almost finished drinking the third bottle, when will your second bottle go down!" ”

After Erfei said this, I withdrew my gaze at the melon field, drank the little beer left in the bottle in one gulp, and said to Erfei: "Give me another one." ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw Er Fei hand me a bottle of beer that had already been opened, "I have already opened it for you!" ”

The five of us drank all the beer until we stopped, I looked at Erfei and Dajun lying on the bed, and said to Da Ming and Da who were still a little sober like me: "Let's go pick a watermelon and eat it!" ”
