There's no home anywhere, really.

On that day, there were fine snowflakes floating in the sky, I sat on the short-distance bus in the countryside of the county seat, there was a thick layer of ice flowers on the window, I pressed my fingers on the glass, and after a while, the ice flowers melted into a small hole that was not big, I looked into the small eyes, the road that was once familiar slowly moved backwards, this is my hometown.

The air in my hometown is really good, after getting out of the car, I stepped on the snow that was pressed by the car, took a deep breath, and suddenly refreshed, I don't know if it is hypocritical, I always feel that although Harbin is very good, very big, very prosperous, but there seems to be no place for me.

Maybe you can only find your true self when you return home.

I carried a black travel bag, rubbed my hands and tightened my clothes, and then walked towards the entrance of the village, but not long after walking, I was stunned, at the entrance of the village, there was a thin figure.

Grandmother.

I looked at my grandmother's figure, and the snow suddenly blurred my eyes, and my nose was sore, and the old lady was waiting for me.

So I hurriedly ran over, my grandmother was wearing a dark green down jacket, and when I ran closer, I found me, obviously, she came out early, and there was a thin layer of snow on the shoulders of her clothes, and it was very cold, but it didn't freeze her smile.

I gently patted the snowflakes off her clothes and said to her, "Milk, why did you come out, what should I do if it's cold and cold?" ”

My grandmother smiled and said to me, "Why don't you wear a hat when you're so cold." ”

My ears were red from the cold, and my eyes were red from the cold.

The old lady is really old, her hair is gray, and she can't tell whether it is silver hair or snowflakes, and now when she sees her grandmother, she thinks of the things she encountered outside, and she suddenly chokes up, but she can't help but smile on her face.

I hurriedly helped the old lady back to the house.

Fortunately, although this village is not big, the neighbors take care of each other, unlike in the city, although the high-rise buildings are towering, it is possible to live in the building for three or five years and do not know the name of the family in the front door.

Although my grandmother is usually alone at home, God willing, she is very tough, except for the occasional cough, there is nothing serious, not like the average old lady is sick, plus the village people often take care of her, so she is very healthy.

I was healthy, and when I got back home, I felt surprisingly relaxed.

However, I also found out that my grandmother is really old, her eyes and ears are a little bad, and she has to be very loud to hear her clearly, which can't help but make me a little sad, but it is also quite ironic, because he has bad eyes, so he did not find the scar on the corner of my mouth.

As long as she doesn't worry about me, I thought as I sat on the kang and ate my favorite meals she cooked.

Ah, this is called food, in comparison, the things in the school cafeteria are simply monosodium glutamate fried wax, except for the oil, there is no hairy taste.

I rubbed my stomach crookedly, and I burped straight after eating.

It's nice to be home, well, it's good, when I'm at home, all the demons and monsters seem to be gone, but I also know that some things won't disappear so easily.

Because after that incident, I also know in my heart, I am home now, and those yellow-skinned ghosts must have followed, thinking of this, I looked out the window, and I could not let those who wanted my life hide nearby now.

But I'm not scared anymore, it's amazing to say, because as soon as I get home, I'm surprisingly down-to-earth, maybe this is my family with the blessing of the fox fairy.

Of course I didn't tell my grandma what happened to me, she's that old, and telling her would only make her worry about me, and I didn't want that.

I just finished eating and found an opportunity to sneak into my storehouse, and in the depths of the storehouse, I found the shrine.

Although my grandmother hated the old cripple and these things, but she still did not throw away this shrine, maybe she herself is also very conflicted, I saw that the shrine was still offered meat and wine, so I knew that the old lady usually had tribute, at that time I already knew about my family's old grudge with these things, so I first bowed to the shrine, then took a rag and wiped the dust on the shrine, and took three tribute incense sticks to light and inserted them into the incense burner.

The green smoke is swirling, and the shrine reads 'Hu Jiayao's trustworthy position' in red paper and black letters, I looked at this red paper, and my heart was really grateful to it, if it were not for it, it is estimated that our whole family would have been finished.

So, I folded my hands (I didn't know how to worship it at that time), knelt on the ground, and said sincerely: "Thank you, you have always blessed my family and protected my milk. ”

After saying that, I kowtowed three times in a row.

Actually, the reality is not as I imagined, and after I kowtow to it three times, it will show up and talk to me, after all, this is reality and not fiction.

The smoke drifted and nothing happened, but I also knew at the time that it didn't exist if it wasn't something that didn't happen, maybe it was here now, but I couldn't see it.

After that, I have been at home, in addition to eating is sleeping, while eating frozen pears while watching TV, frozen pears are a way to preserve fruits in the Northeast winter, there is no fruit in the Northeast winter before, so at the end of the winter, there are fruit sellers from other places to batch pears and persimmons, after arriving here, put them outside to freeze and preserve, hard like ice cubes are very easy to preserve, first put in the water to freeze, eat a unique flavor.

Seeing that the roots of the year are getting closer and closer, I carried the Hu Qin'er broom to buy paper money and went up the mountain once, sure enough, as I imagined, the old lame's grave was buried in the snow, and no one usually came to clean it at all, I smiled bitterly, carried the broom to clean its grave, burned some paper money, and then sat in front of the grave and played the Hu Qin'er.

In the desolate sound of the huqin, I remembered the time when the old cripple was with me, it was so good at that time, there was no trouble, I just hoped that I would grow up quickly, but I didn't know how to cherish the precious time.

After a while, I sighed, then looked at the old lame's grave, and said to it, "Why did you die, why did you do so much for me, and why didn't you tell me?" You say, Daddy Dead. ”

Naturally, the grave could not speak, only the mountain wind whipped up the snow, and the sound of whining was like choking.

There is still a week before the Chinese New Year, my biological father and mother bounced back home, yes, although I have wondered countless times whether I am their biological or not, but the blood household registration book and appearance are here, and I didn't run.

I used to think that my dad is out of tune, maybe because my grandfather is out of tune, family inheritance, so why am I not like them, am I not their biological son?

Obviously, I was too worried, my grandmother said to me, I should follow my grandmother, she said my surname, the same as when she was young, I didn't know what to say, in that distant place there is a good girl who went to the mountains and the countryside, I went, it turned out that my surname was atavism!

So, although they were very out of tune and didn't care much about me since I was a child, they were indeed my parents.

Sometimes I really think that someone is looking for someone, my father Yao Dongsheng is not in tune, the key is that my mother is also following him out of tune, although they are very happy to see me when they go home, but they still do not give me a feeling of touching, my mother saw me, and then hugged me with a smile, and said to me: "Hey, you see my eldest son, he has grown so tall, I really miss my mother, do you want to miss my mother, guess, what did my mother buy for you?" ”

Clothes, what else can there be, I sighed, how many years, it has always been like this, when I come back for the New Year, I buy clothes and come back for me to guess, so that it is about to evolve into a tradition.

Introverted, I looked at my cheerful parents, and thought to myself, alas, maybe it is because they have not been by my side since I was a child, so I feel inferior in front of other children, but thanks to this, I thought that if it wasn't for my father's surname Ziye running to other provinces but going to work in the province, then it is estimated that they would be really dangerous.

An unintentional move saved the lives of his two sons, which was really good luck.

The New Year, the village is full of New Year's flavor, a few days ago, there are a lot of children to dismantle the firecracker point to play, sometimes when watching them blow up with firecrackers, I in addition to quickly dodging for fear of splashing their own body, I can't help but sigh in my heart, I also played like this when I was a child, it is ironic, I dare to play when I was a child, I dare not play anymore when I grow up.

Sometimes, the older I get, the more timid I get, and I really don't have the courage I had when I was a child.

New Year, get up in the morning to help grandma boil paste paste couplet, during the New Year, it seems that the whole village is filled with a smell of gunpowder, it is because of the relationship of the artillery battle, in fact, now the New Year is not like before, listen to my grandmother, there were many rules for the New Year before, when the Chinese New Year's Eve was to cut all the vegetables that should be cut, it was very unlucky to use the knife before the fifth day of the new year, and you can't eat garlic when you are in the Chinese New Year's Eve, even if you can't say it, you have to change the name' taboo', otherwise the old man in the family will pull down his face and reprimand.

However, after the reform and opening up, everyone seems to be patronizing to make money, and they all look at these old traditions as fading year by year, and only remote mountain villages still maintain some traditions, such as 'sending stove kings'.

According to legend, Chinese New Year's Eve is when the king of the stove reports the situation of this family for a year, Chinese New Year's Eve generally has two meals, one in the afternoon, and one is the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, at the mouth of the afternoon meal, it is said that the king of the stove is not high, can not drive the clouds, can only follow the smoke from the chimney to the sky, so that meal, is the ceremony of sending the stove king to heaven.

I am very familiar with the Lord of the Stove, and there is its name in the "Recipe for Helping Soldiers", I remember that the Lord of the Stove seems to be surnamed Zhang, called Zhang Zhou, when he was alive, he was a white-eyed wolf and a rich second generation, and he relied on the family's rich idle and idle all day long. The heart is vicious' trumped-up charges to Hugh, however, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, after he took the girl, and did not live a few days, not a few years, the money accumulated by the ancestors was ruined, after the girl ran away, Zhang Zhou was in a hurry to cataract, and then reduced to a beggar, one day, Zhang Zhou came to a village, hungry and cold forced a woman to give him food, and gave him clothes, cataract patient Zhang Zhou was grateful to Dade, and couldn't stop praising the woman's kindness and beauty, but who expected that the woman said to him with tears in her eyes, you don't know me？

It turned out that the woman was the wife who was divorced by Zhang Zhou before, Zhang Zhou was ashamed after recognizing her, and hit his head on the stove, a life whimper, after his death, the Jade Emperor felt that he should be punished with him, so he sealed this kid a fairy without divine power, so that he could enjoy the smoke and fire behind the stove all the time.

This is the origin of the Lord of the Stove, because this old boy was born with a small heart, so in order to prevent him from saying bad things about this family after going to heaven, so when he was sent to heaven, people came up with a way to stick his mouth with maltose, so that he could not open his mouth to make a small report, and the ceremony of sending the King of the Stove came from this.

Although there are very few stove kings in the family now, but the village still retains this traditional program, before the afternoon meal, every family has to set off a cannon, my family is the same, my grandmother and mother cooked, my father led me to the yard with a small cigarette in his mouth, he said while setting off the cannon: "A person's surname is Zhang, riding a horse and carrying a gun, say more good things and less bad words, or he will stop your mouth." ”

I don't know if there is the word '' in the blessing of the king of the stove, but my dad did say it, and after saying that, he lit the firecracker, and a year passed.

In the evening, before I finished watching the Spring Festival Gala, I was sleepy, and after eating a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, I fell asleep, but when I fell asleep, I had a strange dream.

I dreamed that a young woman walked to my bedside, that feeling was amazing, I knew it was a dream, because I had never seen this woman, but it felt very familiar, she had a melon seed face, snow-white skin, wearing a red dress, red eyes, the corners of the eyes were bent upward, in the dream, my parents were still keeping the year, the two of them were watching TV and playing poker, but they didn't seem to see the woman come in, the woman smiled and walked towards me, no, it seems a little inappropriate to say that walking, because I didn't see her step, she seems to have floated in!

It was a little infiltrating, but I wasn't too scared, maybe because I was dreaming, I didn't think much about it, I asked her who she was and what she wanted to do, she didn't speak, just smiled and pointed to her mouth, and then pointed to the stove candy on the plate on the coffee table.
