Grandma Meng covered her mouth and told Hao Jian and Tian Dabao a mythical story that they had never heard of and felt unbelievable in their hearts. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I know the two of them are coming to pick me up." Grandma Meng coughed a few times, folded her hands, and said pleading to Hao Jian's black and white impermanence: "I hope you can listen to me finish this story before taking me back." ”
Tian Dabao couldn't see it, but Hao Jian could see it, Hao Jian looked back, nodded in black and white impermanence, and agreed to Grandma Meng to tell the story.
Grandma Meng told them that when she was young, she liked a young man, Wang Yun. Wang Yun is Wenwen's grandfather's previous life.
Grandma Meng, in her previous life, was the daughter of a wealthy family, and she was born in a scholarly family. Grandpa Wang, in his previous life, was just a poor kid who opened an ordinary noodle restaurant.
In their time, two people loved each other and loved each other, not as free as they are now.
Two people with a huge disparity, the love affair between them is separated by a scholarly door, a pair of doors, and a parental covenant through the words of the matchmaker, in short, their distance and obstacles are as far away as the galaxy between the elder brother Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
Grandma Meng's parents forced Grandma Meng to marry a rich boy who was in the right household, and Grandma Meng didn't want to be with Grandpa Wang.
Grandma Meng's parents locked her in her room all day, cutting her off from outsiders until the day she got on the sedan chair. Therefore, Grandma Meng made up her mind that she was going to elope with Grandpa Wang on her wedding day.
Three days before the wedding, Grandma Meng wrote a letter to her maid to secretly transfer her letter to Grandpa Wang, which recorded that three days later, before dawn, she and Grandpa Wang agreed to meet under the pear tree.
However, the letter was hijacked halfway, and Grandpa Wang did not receive the letter at all, but he received a desperate letter from someone else fabricating Grandma Meng's handwriting.
They made Grandpa Wang mistakenly think that Grandma Meng was in love with someone else, disgusted that he was born poor, and he was going to marry her beloved tomorrow.
It's not that Grandpa Wang didn't go to look for her, but he couldn't see Grandma Meng at all, and before he arrived at the door, others drove him out. He was drunk for three days and three nights, and then, on the day of Grandma Meng's wedding, he was heartbroken, left his hometown in a fit of anger, went to live in a foreign place, and never saw Grandma Meng again.
Grandma Meng was even more miserable, she waited for Grandpa Wang for a long time under the pear tree full of snowflakes pressing the branches, but she still didn't wait for others, but what she was waiting for was a desperate letter!
said that Grandpa Wang was friendly with her cousin, and said that he would fly away with her, don't come to look for him, tell Grandma Wang to forget him, and wish Grandma Wang happiness!
Now the two people who really love each other miss it like this.
Grandma Meng is so stubborn, a few days ago, she had already found out that she was pregnant with Grandpa Wang's child, and the family didn't let them be together, so Grandma Meng made this decision, so she couldn't wait to elope with Grandpa Wang, and planned to tell him the good news under the pear tree.
Grandma Meng didn't expect that what she was waiting for was just such a desperate letter, in that era, unmarried pregnancy was the sorrow and taboo of women in that era.
Grandma Meng knew that if everyone knew, the world and her family would not tolerate her.
"I can't be your bride in this life, so wait for the next life!" So, after being carried onto the sedan chair, Grandma Meng, who was wearing a red wedding dress but was disheartened, committed suicide by cutting her wrists.
After many years, when Grandpa Wang returned to his hometown with his children and daughters, he learned that Grandma Meng had been martyred for him and was pregnant, and he couldn't help but shed two lines of regretful tears.
Later, by chance, Grandma Meng's letter fell into his hands, but Grandma Meng was no longer there.
After Grandma Meng's death, the story of Grandma Meng and Grandpa Wang, especially Grandma Meng's deep affection for Grandpa Wang, touched Master Yama, and he made a wish to Grandma Meng.
At that time, Grandma Meng was disheartened, and she wanted to forget all those unpleasant pasts, so she asked Lord Yama if there was any way for her to forget the past and no longer remember. She hopes that people like her who have had these sad memories will forget the past and never remember it again.
Lord Hades smiled, he took out a bowl filled with sparkling blue hot soup, handed it to Grandma Meng, and said with relief: "Drink, drink this bowl of soup, you won't remember anything anymore." ”
Grandma Meng said that she actually hesitated in her heart at that time, but it was true that the injury was too deep to let go, so she had to forget. She took the soup bowl and drank the hot soup in one gulp: "May the past of Hongchen pass away with the wind, I will no longer remember you, and you will no longer remember me." ”
After Grandma Meng drank the bowl of hot soup, she really forgot everything! Even her own name has been forgotten, nothing is remembered.
I only remember that there was a majestic black charcoal man sitting in the high hall, dressed like Bao Qingtian. Isn't this the legendary Lord of Yama?
He looked at Grandma Meng in the audience with a righteous and awe-inspiring look, and then slapped the golden jade hall in his hand, and the golden steel hairpin in the hands of the surrounding ghosts was shocked, and the black charcoal man said to the audience in a sleek official tone: "This soup bowl is for you, from now on, you will be called Meng Po, in charge of Nai He Bridge." Take charge of making mortals forget their past. ”
……
"Okay, thank you, Lord Yama." From then on, Grandma Meng bowed deeply to the Lord of Yama and took the soup bowl of Meng Po, she didn't know who she was before, she only knew that her name was Meng Po, and she was in charge of the Nai He Bridge.
Grandma Meng worked as an errand in the underworld like this, and after hundreds of lifetimes, her face was not old, and her heart was tired.
Originally, she didn't remember anything, she had long forgotten who she was, and she only knew that her mission in this life was to be in charge of the Nai He Bridge, and to be in charge of making mortals forget their past.
But just a few months ago, someone in the underworld used a spell, and wisps of the fragrance of noodles wafted from the world to the underworld, drifting across the Nai He Bridge every night, and actually restored Grandma Meng's memory.
Grandma Meng smelled the fragrance, which reminded her of Grandpa Wang, when Grandpa Wang and her first met, she was really attracted by the unique fragrance of Grandpa Wang's bowl of noodles.
Grandma Meng knew that this was Grandpa Wang also calling him, and one day she finally couldn't help it, she came to this roadside stall with a fragrance and found that Grandpa Wang had been reincarnated for several years.
Grandma Meng, who was paralyzed in the bed that Grandpa Wang had to take care of all day, was actually Grandma Meng's love was too deep, touching the heavens and the earth, and the heavens were pitiful, and she changed with her previous tears. So he has always been paralyzed in bed, accompanying Grandpa Wang for the rest of his life.
However, Grandma Meng really couldn't see Grandpa Wang's hard work all day, she actually lost her mind and jumped into the paralyzed Grandma Meng's body, and Grandma Meng's legs and feet were fine. But she lost herself and could never go back.
Grandma Meng remembered that the Lord of Yama once said that everything in the world has a cause and an effect, and what cause you plant, your descendants will bear fruit.
This retribution was indeed imprinted on the body of her grandson, Queen Yuwen.
