3, blind Tai

Then she asked, "Who else is coming in from here?" ”

My mother called her out respectfully, and then said my name, which was kind of an introduction, and after she heard it, she said to my mother, "You close the courtyard door, and come in and tell me something." ”

But I noticed a detail, that is, the blind grandmother's eyes were staring at the door all the time, and this was the second time since I entered her house that I felt that although she was blind, she seemed to be really looking at something. Even though my mother had closed the courtyard door, I walked under the eaves, and her eyes were still at the door, so that my grandmother called out to her, but she didn't respond.

My grandmother said, "Old sister, I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and I have to trouble you if there is something." ”

The blind lady then turned her eyes back from the gate and went in the direction of grandma's speech, and then she asked very calmly, "What is the matter?" ”

So the grandmother roughly explained the intention, and after hearing the grandmother's words, the blind grandmother asked, "How did you know that you came to me?" ”

She said this to mean that she really understands the doorway, it seems that what Mr. said is not wrong, grandma hesitated, as if considering whether to tell Mr. out, but in the end grandma still said, blind Mrs. heard that it was Mr. said that she did not make a sound, she then looked away again, from the direction of grandma to look at me, I never opened my mouth, but she knew at once where I was standing, did she really sense something from me.

Then I heard her shout, "Linglong, you take two incense sticks." ”

Linglong is the granddaughter of the blind Mrs., she shouted Linglong who was originally in the house and came out, she looked like she should be eleven or twelve years old, she held two incense in her hand, one for three burns, and the blind Mrs. said, "Give this brother a copy." ”

Linglong took a piece of incense to me, and then the blind lady said to me, "You light these three incense sticks and insert them at the gate, and you have to insert them yourself." ”

The blind lady said that Linglong gave me a box of matches, and I lit the three incense sticks, and when they were all lit, I blew them, and then I went to the gate, put the incense in the door, and then came back.

After I came back, the blind lady also had an extra incense in her hand, and she pinched it in her hand, at this time she had already stood up, just standing under the eaves, respectfully pinching the incense, motionless like a sculpture, I didn't understand what she was doing, so I looked at my mother and grandmother, they were also confused, about a while, she sighed, I don't know why she sighed, my grandmother asked, "Old sister, what's wrong?" ”

Then I saw that the incense in the blind lady's hand had been extinguished, I thought she sighed because the incense was extinguished, and when I thought she was going to light the incense again, I saw that she casually threw the incense under the porch stone, and she continued: "The incense is extinguished." ”

We don't know why, but the blind aunt continued: "I may not be able to help with this, your family's tricks are a bit evil, Xiao family sister, let me say a more straightforward word, the sins done by the seniors have been repaid to the juniors." ”

The blind grandmother said this, who knew that the grandmother suddenly straightened up when she heard this, obviously startled, and then she panicked, and asked the blind grandmother without any idea: "Then what should I do, what should I do?" ”

I didn't know what they were talking about, what was the sin of the seniors, so the blind aunt asked me, "What do you remember after you were sobered up by your husband last night?" ”

As soon as I said this, I immediately had that vague memory, a pair of shoes, a dirt pit, and two candles with flickering candles, as soon as I said this, Blind Mrs. turned to grandma's side and said to grandma: "Old sister, look, is this the case, you go back and try to make a consolation for her, see if she can stand it, if not, it is also impossible, right?" ”

When I came out, I saw that one of the incense I had planted at the door had gone out, but the other two had burned, so I said, "Why is this incense burned like this?" ”

Who knew that grandma was immediately anxious when she saw it, she said: "People are most afraid of three long and two short, and incense is most afraid of two short and one long, the more afraid of something, the more it is!" ”

It wasn't until I got home that my grandmother told me about what my grandmother said, and even my mother didn't know about it, and my grandmother said, "Wood, that night you heard your grandfather say that he saw San'er in the well, you must think that what he said is right for your third sister?" ”

Hearing my grandmother say this, I realized that this person was not my third sister, but I still nodded, and my grandmother said: "Actually, it's not your third sister, it's just that they all happen to be third, and the third son your grandfather said is the third daughter of your grandfather Li's family." ”

I asked, "The third daughter of Ah Gong's family?" ”

Grandma's voice suddenly became a little angry at this time, and she said: "It's all your grandfather who was confused when he was young, how can you do this kind of hurtful thing, and now the retribution is on your own family, it's all this old thing who sees money and has an eye for money." ”

Grandma has never said this about grandpa, and now she suddenly said such words, it seems that she is really anxious, and then grandma said that the third daughter of Li Agong's family was born fine, but when she was four or five years old, she was suddenly paralyzed, and the girl in the countryside is not valuable, not to mention that she is still a paralyzed girl, and such a child is also a burden at home, so when the child was eight years old, Li Agong found his grandfather, he meant to let grandpa help bury his paralyzed daughter, When he said this, my grandfather was also frightened, my grandfather said that this is not to kill him, who knows that Li Ah Gong said that my grandfather only needs to be responsible for burying it, Li Ah Gong said that even if he hates this paralyzed daughter, but after all, it is his own child, he wants to bury himself and has always been ruthless, so he told his grandfather that his family will pour some medicine into this paralyzed daughter, and when she is out of breath, let grandpa find a place they don't know about and bury it.

Grandpa naturally didn't do such a thing in vain, Grandpa Li's family promised to give grandpa ten yuan, and the ten yuan at that time could buy more than 400 catties of rice, grandpa couldn't stand the temptation, so he agreed.

But then grandma said that this was simply a sin, because in the middle of the night, Ah Gong Li's family poured the paralyzed daughter into a sack and carried it out for grandpa, and grandpa found a remote and barren place to bury her, just after grandpa dug the pit, the paralyzed daughter of Ah Li's family somehow woke up, and not only woke up but also crawled out of the sack.

Although grandma was not present at this incident, grandpa told grandma the whole story in detail afterwards, so grandma said that grandpa himself was scared at that time, and the sack was clearly firmly rooted, and he didn't know how to open it, and Ah Li's family said that she was out of gas so that she could resist.

Grandpa was only digging a dirt pit at the time, and he didn't notice how she woke up and got out of the sack, and after the paralyzed daughter of Ah Li's family crawled out of the sack, she grabbed her grandfather's trouser leg, and she said to her grandfather: "Uncle Xiao, don't bury me, I don't want to die." ”

My grandfather was also frightened at the time, and we don't know what he thought at the time, but after that he tied her back into the sack, and then buried her in one go, regardless of whether she was alive or not.

After the burial, the grandfather returned home as if he had escaped, and he was worried about it for several years, and then gradually calmed down with the passage of time, who knows that it has been almost forty years, but this matter has been stirred up like this.

I couldn't breathe anymore, so I asked, "What happened to the girl, did she die like this?" ”

Grandma didn't speak, and from her silence I knew that no one had gone to see the girl since she was buried, and it was impossible for her to live, and grandma said, "Your grandfather later said that even if he didn't bury this paralyzed daughter at that time, she had been drugged by her family, and she couldn't live, and there was no other way than to bury it." ”

I listened and said, "If that's the case, if he wants to ask for his life, he will come and ask for it, in short, grandpa is sorry for her first." ”

Who knew that before I could say this, I was reprimanded by my mother and grandmother, who said, "What nonsense do you say, children really don't know a taboo." ”
