I've only heard of the crow's funeral, and I've never heard of the white fox's funeral, and I really don't believe what my grandfather said.

glanced at Liu Cheng next to him, but Liu Cheng listened with interest, and asked his grandfather at the end, "Did a white fox really come to report the funeral that night?" ”

Grandpa nodded his head and said gratefully, "We didn't believe it at the time, because your grandfather was going to die the next day, and he was fine the day before, how could he suddenly die the day after." At that time, I only thought that Lin Yue'an and her father couldn't speak, so I didn't want to talk to him more, I leaned against the corner of the wall with your grandfather and squinted, but when the sky was gray, your grandfather suddenly teased me, and then pointed to his trouser leg, I really saw a little white fox biting his trouser leg and dragging it out, the little white fox had little strength, and he couldn't drag it, your grandfather shook his legs, and the little white fox ran out a few steps, turned around twice and ran back to continue to pull your grandpa's trouser leg, the fox was very cunning, On weekdays, I ran away when I saw the living, but the little white fox was not afraid of the living at all, and your grandfather and I both knew that something strange had happened, and hurriedly woke up Lin Yue'an and her father. ”

Lin Yue'an She already knew that this little white fox was coming, so she asked us if we should believe it now, we all nodded and said that it was believed, your grandfather asked him to save his life at that time, Lin Yue'an and her father said, now not only people can't eat, even the fox can't eat enough, but no matter how the fox can't eat, they don't dare to drag people, they dare to drag your grandfather over and over again, that's because in its eyes, your grandfather is already a dead man, and treats your grandfather as food. Then Lin Yue'an and her father took out a piece of candy from his pocket, bent down and gave it to the little white fox, and the little white fox turned around and left. ”

Grandpa talked eloquently and told all the details at that time, Liu Cheng also listened quietly, grandpa talked for so long, and his mouth was a little tired, so he took out a cigarette gun and lit it and smoked, Liu Cheng also waited quietly, and only asked, "What happened later?" ”

Grandpa lit a cigarette and smoked a few puffs and continued, "Later, Lin Yue'an's father said that he was originally going to marry Lin Yue'an to your grandfather, but he couldn't give your grandfather two lives, so either he gave Lin Yue'an to him, or he saved his life, he could only choose one of these two lives, of course your grandfather chose to let Lin Yue'an save his life, the old man didn't say anything at the time, and when the rain stopped in the morning, the old man pulled me aside and said to me, in fact, it wasn't anything that I couldn't listen to, just tell me, Stop your grandfather from saying guillotine. ”

We listened to the uh-huh nod, the severed words are the words of death, and the land lord said a lot about my grandfather's severed heads, such as the dead going up the tree, the living marrying the corpse, the old dog asking for directions, and so on.

"The rain stopped early in the morning, we said goodbye to Lin Yue'an and their father and daughter, and went to the coal mine, but there were too many coal picks at that time, and when we went, the coal dug out had already been picked up, so the coal boss let us go into the coal hole to dig by ourselves, and give us cheaper when the time comes. It's not strange to dig coal in the coal hole by yourself, we can get cheaper in total, and we have to prepare to go in, but once we go in, it will take more than half an hour, and we can't smoke inside, we want to relieve the smoking addiction first, and smoke outside the coal hole, and when you smoke, your grandfather said, this coal hole looks like a grave hole today. As soon as I heard it, your grandfather really said the guillotine, Lin Yue'an and her father confessed that they wanted to stop your grandpa from saying the guillotine, but your grandpa's words have already been spoken, and you can't take it back, I thought about it for a while and said, we have such a good relationship, even if we drill the grave hole, we have to drill together, if which one drills first, it will be dragged out. ”

"At that time, your grandfather and old man Li didn't care, but they still nodded and agreed to my words, after smoking we went into the coal mine, at first nothing, after digging the coal when we went outside, a stone suddenly fell from the top of the coal mine, impartially smashed on your grandfather's chest, and then he vomited blood, at that time the old man Li thought that he had encountered a collapse, dropped the coal and ran first, I carried your grandfather out, and immediately sent to the county hospital. Your grandfather has no descendants, and there is no woman, so I took care of him by the side, and on the way to the hospital, he kept shouting to drink water, Old Man Li looked at your grandfather and vomited blood and was thirsty, so he poured him a glass of water, your grandfather was just about to drink it when I was slapped and knocked off, his stomach was smashed to a pulp, it was full of blood, if a sip of cold water went down, the blood was frozen and he would definitely die, your grandfather was crying and begging me, begging me to let him drink a sip of water, even if he died, he was willing, I didn't agree, Later, I was sent to the hospital and took care of your grandfather for nearly half a year before he recovered. ”

"Then how did my mother get married?" I asked.

Grandpa smiled and said, "That's what happened after your grandfather recovered, I almost forgot about this stubble, but one day Lin Yuean and her father came to the door, called me and your grandfather together, and told your grandfather that his life was given by me, so he owes me a life, originally wanted to marry his daughter to your grandfather, and now this life has to be given to me." I've already been married, of course I didn't agree, and then I thought of your father, and I was also thinking about leaving a queen for the Sun family at that time, so I married Lin Yuean to your father, and it didn't take long for you to be born, and then your father and mother went out to work. At that time, I was going to marry Lin Yuean to my family, and your grandfather was in a mood for a while. ”

Grandpa finished talking about the marriage of his father and mother, Liu Cheng savored it for a while, and when grandpa saw that Liu Cheng was silent, he asked Liu Cheng, "Why did Master Liu suddenly ask this?" ”

Liu Cheng smiled and said, "It's just that I'm more interested, have you ever met Sun Qing's grandfather later?" ”

Grandpa shook his head, "I haven't seen it, not long after Sun Qing's father and mother got married, his grandfather died, Lin Yuean said that her father was alone in her family, and even her father died, and that vein was completely broken, so I haven't been to see it for so many years." ”

Liu Cheng nodded, and thought for a while before saying, "Did Sun Qing and his mother behave abnormally after coming to your house?" ”

Grandpa was stunned, shook his head and said, "It's normal, she is diligent and capable, our family treats her well, and we don't treat her as a widow at all." ”

"Didn't a man die on the first day of marriage? Is this a widow? I asked, surprised.

Grandpa and Liu Cheng both smiled, laughing I don't understand, I immediately shut up and didn't interject in the conversation, the world of adults is different from my world.

Liu Cheng listened to his grandfather's words, and said, "I listened to your words just now, there are three things I think are problematic, first, there has always been only a crow to report the funeral, the white fox to report the good news, you said that a white fox came to report the funeral that day, this is the same as the chicken Si Chen, it is unlikely; Second, I have also read Sun Qing's grandfather's eight characters, and there was no life and death catastrophe during that time period, so how can there be any such thing as death? Third, those who know yin and yang, gossip and life and death are generally Taoist priests, how did Lin Yue'an and her father know that a white fox would come that night? How did you know that Grandpa Sun Qing was in trouble? ”

After listening to Liu Cheng's three questions, Grandpa thought for a while, "Actually, I thought about it too, but then Sun Qing's grandfather died quickly, and I didn't have time to ask. As for his white fox reporting good news and funeral, I don't know much about this, Sun Qing and his father and mother have been married for so long, and nothing happened, I think Master Liu, you think too much, Lin Yuean is an ordinary woman, there is nothing to guess. ”

Grandpa also saw it, Liu Cheng seems to be investigating my mother, grandpa has always paid attention to future generations, even if there is really a problem with my mother, grandpa is not willing to let Liu Cheng find out, just pretend not to see it, anyway, nothing happened.

Liu Cheng understood what his grandfather meant, so he only asked my grandfather for the address of my mother's hometown, and then stopped asking about it, but went into the house to check on my father's situation.

Daddy was still sleepy, Liu Cheng stood next to him for a while, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, looked at my dad and said, "Now the only one who can save you is Huang Yunqiu, but now I don't know where she has gone." ”
