Chapter 44: The Eve of the Wedding
The few clay dolls are the second from left to right, that is, the female clay doll that I reached out to play with before, and my grandmother also reprimanded me for this matter.
Good! Grandma's voice suddenly came from behind. I was so shocked that I quickly turned around, looked at my grandmother, and answered in a panic.
What are you doing here? Sneaky. Grandma asked me as she walked over to me.
I, I'm going to get a feather duster, I see that the study is full of dust. Since Sister Xiuyun left, the neatness in the study is no longer the same as before, my dad often goes out to see a doctor, and my grandmother doesn't like to go to the study, so except for me, almost no one cleans.
Grandma nodded, unlocked her door, went into the room and brought me a feather duster, and told me to be lighter when it was going to get dusty, or it would be all over the house.
While my grandmother was talking, I still stared at the four clay dolls on the table in the room, and I couldn't help it, so I asked my grandmother, where is the other clay figure on this table?
Grandma turned her head to look at the table, stared at it for a while, and then turned her head to look at me strangely: Aren't there five clay figurines standing on the table? What do you say four?
Five? I just saw four! I turned sideways and walked behind my grandmother, closer to these clay figurines, and saw that there were indeed five clay figurines standing on the table, and the vacant position just now was a female clay figurine, with the corners of her mouth bent upward, and her eyebrows and eyes were smiling.
This is really strange, I just saw that clay figure is not there, could it be that my eyes are dazzled?
Seeing that I was still stunned at the door, my grandmother gently pushed me and asked me what I was thinking. I quickly shook my head, said I didn't think about anything, and hurried to the study after that.
Now, not only do I feel weird at school, but even my home is slowly becoming weird, and even when I sleep at night, I always feel that there are countless pairs of eyes staring at me.
I usually don't have anything to do on Saturday, so I went to see Sister Xiuyun, although Sister Xiuyun is not far from our home, but the daughter who married out is like a splash of water, more or less a little estranged from the people of her mother's family, now Sister Xiuyun has been married to Bajin for more than a year, and she has not seen a baby, Bajin Her mother has been depressed since the death of her daughter, and she is even more upset when she sees that Sister Xiuyun can't give birth to a baby, and she is even more upset.
Sister Xiuyun didn't interfere in this matter, when I saw Sister Xiuyun, she was still lying on the bed, except for the eyeballs that could turn a few rounds, the rest was like nailed to the bed board, and she couldn't move. When Sister Xiuyun saw me coming, she frowned and wanted to get up with difficulty, but found that she couldn't move, so she squeezed out a few words from her dry mouth: Good, you are here. Ah, the flip-flops were light and trembling, and it seemed that he didn't even have the strength to take back the words.
Bajin walked in from outside with a basin of warm water, twisted a towel and put it on Sister Xiuyun's forehead, Sister Xiuyun has been sick for so long, her body is still refreshing, and her hair is not greasy, it seems that Bajin is still very concerned about Sister Xiuyun.
Bajin is probably going out, before leaving, moved a chair for me to sit, and said to me Don't say too much to Sister Xiuyun, Sister Xiuyun will be very tired, I nodded and agreed, after Bajin left, Sister Xiuyun's tears suddenly flowed down her cheeks from her eyes, her eyes widened and looked at me, and said to me with difficulty: Good, you want your father to take you and move outside to live, don't go back.
What does it mean for me and my dad to move out? I looked at Sister Xiuyun suspiciously, Sister Xiuyun seemed to have something to say to me, but I used a lot of strength just now and now I haven't eased up, I can only stare into my eyes, tears flowing.
Seeing Sister Xiuyun crying, I immediately panicked, and hurriedly comforted Sister Xiuyun and said that I would discuss with my father when I went back that we would move out and live, and told Sister Xiuyun not to cry.
Sister Xiuyun saw that I agreed, the frequency of tears falling down was not so fast, I opened the joke book I brought over, and told Sister Xiuyun a joke, Sister Xiuyun looked at me, a slight smile rose up on her lips, looking at the wheelchair picture of the big tree drawn by her kind brother in front of her bed, quietly it seemed that even her breath was small, I was afraid that Sister Xiuyun would suddenly die when she looked at it like this, in order to attract Sister Xiuyun's attention, I sang and danced to Sister Xiuyun, even if everyone was gone, And I'm with her.
The eight-pound mother came back from outside, and saw me singing and dancing in her house, very unhappy, with the hand that broke two fingers of the Mongolian ear, Bai Shuixiang disappeared until now, there is no news, she is more or less dependent on my family, so the attitude towards my family is extremely cold, and I don't want to see such an old woman who treats me every day, so I said to Sister Xiuyun that I have time to come to see her tomorrow.
Sister Xiuyun nodded, and explained to me again when I left, telling me that I must tell my father to move out of Bailiu Town when I go back, and I must move out! The sooner the better!
I don't understand why Sister Xiuyun suddenly said such a thing, but since Sister Xiuyun wants me to say it, I have to do it.
At dinner in the evening, while my dad and grandma were there, I put down the dishes and chopsticks and said to my dad: Dad, I went to see Sister Xiuyun just now, and Sister Xiuyun said that she wanted us to move out and not come back.
Originally, I thought that they would think that I was saying a strange thing, my house, although it is said to be very old, but the carvings and paintings in the house, as well as all kinds of decorative furnishings, are very valuable, the last time the uncle came back, he saw a wide range of things outside, said that if all the things in our old house can be sold, it will definitely be worth more than one million, just rush to this, the possibility of us moving out to live is very small.
Is this really Xiuyun saying? Grandma asked me.
I nodded and said yes, Sister Xiuyun also said that the sooner the better, and told us not to come back in the future, I still wonder how Sister Xiuyun could say such a thing.
Grandma's face suddenly froze, and the chopsticks were stunned in the dish for a while before coming back to her senses, and the whole person seemed to have lost her soul, slowly putting vegetables in her mouth. But my dad didn't react, didn't talk to me, and continued to eat his dishes.
Grandma got off the table very early, the dishes and chopsticks were washed by me in the kitchen, grandma turned on a small dim light in her room, I don't know what she was doing, when I was about to wash the dishes, she suddenly came out of the room and said to me: Good, do you want a mother? I didn't quite know what my grandmother wanted to say for a while, and my grandmother seemed to be talking to herself, and it seemed to be saying to me: I can still marry a wife, I can also marry a wife. As he spoke, he went back to his room to sleep very indifferently.
The next morning, I heard the sound of my grandmother opening the door early, but I didn't care, when it was dawn, I went to see Sister Xiuyun, Sister Xiuyun asked me if I told my dad about this yesterday?
I nodded.
So what did your dad say? Sister Xiuyun suddenly looked at me expectantly.
My dad didn't say anything, grandma meant that he didn't want to move, and then grandma came and asked me if I wanted a mother? I guess my grandmother is trying to find a wife for my dad.
Sister Xiuyun heard me say that my grandmother was going to find a wife for my father, and she was immediately excited, her eyes were round and bulging, I thought I had said something wrong, so I quickly squatted down and asked Sister Xiuyun, asking her what was wrong, what was there I listening to here.
Stop, stop grandma, persuade her not to do this, don't do it, that will hurt an innocent girl again.
But who can reverse the decision made by grandma? I have been pestering my grandmother for a long time, and I still don't have a way, and I don't know where my grandmother found the yellow flower girl who is willing to marry my father, and I haven't known each other for two days, and I have already booked the wedding date, which is on the 28th of this month. And Sister Xiuyun's side, Xiuyun asked Bajin to bring back the woman her mother fancied, and let the woman sleep in the same room as Bajin, and the wedding day was also on the 28th at the end of this month!
