Chapter 33: Life Plan (6)
Aunt Li has three older sisters, and the names of the three sisters are all Shu, Yu, and Xian, although they are cheesy, they are still serious girl names. And their names at the time could not be said to be cheesy. When it came to the third child, she was still a daughter, and Aunt Li's father couldn't sit still and gave Aunt Li such a straightforward name.
Aunt Li often envies Uncle Li's good name, simple and good-sounding, and if you want to explain it, you can also tell a set of meanings. She just changed her name once, but the name is still cheesy, which does not conform to Aunt Li's fashion concept of keeping up with the trend. Of course, if it were just like this, it wouldn't make Aunt Li angry. She didn't like to talk about it, because her father thought about it until he died.
When the old man died, Aunt Li was also old. When people get old, their names don't often come to people's lips. Like Sister Li, Aunt Li, Aunt Li, Aunt Li...... Such a title replaces the name Li Landi. Except for doing business, no one will call him by his name anymore.
Compared with Aunt Li, Uncle Li didn't even mention his surname. This is all because he doesn't walk around often when he gets old, so he sits in the community. Aunt Li is more active than him and knows more people than him, and the first thing people think of when they see him is "Oh, this is Aunt Li's husband", and then they call him "Uncle Li" directly.
But a name is a name after all, a symbol that will follow people for a lifetime.
Traditionally, names are also closely related to people's fate.
Thinking of this, Aunt Li sighed: "So, it's all fate." I just happened to run into it, and I saved ......."
The Li family's emotion about the name ended with Aunt Li's sigh and came to an end.
Uncle Li's death is a sad thing after all. Even if he died peacefully in his sleep, it would not be a joy for his family. What's more, his death was not so peaceful.
Aunt Li didn't notice it herself, but in fact, when she heard Li Yun's name, she was relieved. It's like receiving a phone call and knowing that Uncle Li was in a car accident to save people, she was also relieved. As she said to Li Yun and her children and grandchildren, dying to save people always makes a meaningful death. An eighty-year-old man who passed away in such a way is probably gratifying. and then combine the same name to make this matter more "destined", and Uncle Li's death will become more acceptable to her.
Aunt Li burned paper money for Uncle Li for a while, and was persuaded by her children to go to bed.
Before the first seven days, someone in the family had to keep a vigil for Uncle Li, and they had to ensure that the incense and paper money were continuous.
Tomorrow, there will be a monk invited by the funeral shop to recite scriptures to Uncle Li.
Their family does not believe in Buddhism, but at this time, finding someone to recite sutras is a kind of comfort to the family of the deceased.
After Aunt Li finished washing, she lay down on the half-empty bed.
The sons and daughters and granddaughters all went back.
Outside the half-hidden door, you can hear the conversation between my grandson and my grandson. Just the two of them have a vigil tonight.
The light in the living room and the slight human voice made Aunt Li feel at ease.
She quickly fell asleep and woke up without warning.
She didn't know how long she had been asleep.
It doesn't seem to be long, it's just a blink of an eye.
There was a lot of movement outside, as if someone was rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for something.
There is also the sound of music......
Where does the music come from?
Aunt Li instinctively stretched out her hand. She touched the empty half of the bed.
Usually when she encounters this kind of thing, she always wakes up Uncle Li and asks Uncle Li to see it.
Aunt Li sat up, lifted the quilt, grabbed a piece of clothing next to the bed, put it on casually, dangled her feet on the ground, and looked for slippers everywhere. She was single-minded, still shouting to her grandson and grandson, "What are you doing? ”
The slippers were found.
Aunt Li got out of bed, opened the door, and saw two people busy in the living room.
"Looking for a phone. Grandma, listen, it's the sound of a mobile phone, right? Isn't it my grandfather's mobile phone? The grandson asked.
Aunt Li shook her head, "His phone is not this ringtone." Which of them didn't take their phones with them? Call at this point......" she muttered, looking at the clock on the wall.
It's past eleven o'clock, and it's not too late.
"Grandma, go to sleep. We'll just look for it. ”
Aunt Li stood at the door of the room and looked at it and nodded. She turned to go back to her room, but her steps stopped.
As if sensing something, Aunt Li turned her head and looked at the posthumous photo of her wife.
Uncle Li in the black-and-white photo did not change, did not speak, and did not blink.
Aunt Li just looked at it, as if she saw something important.
She raised her hand and pointed at her grandson and grandson, who were headless flies.
"It's the old man's urn."
Just in front of the posthumous photo, the urn is quietly placed.
The two big men froze.
The room became very quiet, the music was faint and a little muffled, indeed coming from that direction, and it was locked in something.
Aunt Li didn't go to see the two frightened juniors, she took three steps and made two steps, and stood in front of the posthumous photo.
The clothes draped over her shoulders slipped to the ground, and she didn't feel cold.
Aunt Li couldn't tell what mood she was in right now.
She didn't really have anything on her head.
She opened her wife's urn in this way.
The box was still sealed and easily opened.
The gray powder is spread in the box.
The music became louder.
Aunt Li threw the lid aside and jerked her hand into the ashes.
"Grandma!"
"Grandma!"
The grandson and grandson all blurted out and screamed.
Aunt Li had already withdrawn her hand.
She holds a cell phone in her hand.
The phone is OPPO.
Aunt Li knows that this mobile phone looks good to take pictures.
She didn't think about whose phone it belonged to, she just hurriedly blew off the ashes on the screen.
On the illuminated screen, the caller ID is a string of numbers.
Aunt Li couldn't remember Uncle Li's mobile phone number, but when she looked at the string of numbers, she knew that it was Uncle Li's call. She directly pressed the answer button, held her breath, and carefully prepared to shout "old man".
Her eyes were already filled with tears before she knew it.
"Uh-huh-"
"Big brother, what should I do?"
"What can I do? Tie people up first. ”
"Didn't you kill it directly?"
"Mmmmmm
"I'll kill later. It's rare to meet a woman. Hey...... You go and find out, are there any tapes, cloth heads, ......"
On the other end of the phone, footsteps rang.
Aunt Li was stunned.
The grandsons and grandsons who heard this conversation were also stunned.
Aunt Li covered her mobile phone, turned her head, winked at her grandson and grandson, and whispered, "Call the police!" Call the police!! ”
The two of them hurriedly took out their mobile phones.
"Grandma'......"
"Hurry up! Don't talk nonsense! Be quiet! Aunt Li said nervously. She removed her hand and hid the call screen in the background.
Other features of the phone need to be unlocked to use.
Aunt Li flipped through her phone and pressed her finger under the screen.
The phone was unlocked.
Before Aunt Li could operate, a WeChat message was sent.
It was the news of applying for a friend, the applicant's name was written "Li Yun", and the avatar was Uncle Li with a research look, which was the avatar photo he took after studying selfies.
