Chapter 386: The Living (1)

Jiang Longchang and his daughter didn't get along for long before they received a WeChat message from Uncle Li.

After leaving the capital and coming to the world, this signal is different. The messages on WeChat are very clear and there is no garbled characters.

Jiang Longchang's heart was excited, and according to the way he learned in Xudu, he cautiously clicked on the video call.

The prompt rang twice, and the phone was connected, and Uncle Li's wrinkled old face appeared on the mobile phone screen. Not only that, but on the right edge of the screen, you can also see Aunt Li's figure.

Jiang Longchang's heart suddenly had mixed feelings.

The same is true of Uncle Li on the other end of the phone.

The two old men held up their mobile phones and looked at each other silently. The two invariably recalled each other's past, brotherhood, and many emotions after death filled their hearts.

Naturally, the only one who broke this atmosphere was Aunt Li.

"Why didn't you say anything when you answered the phone? Whose phone is it? Isn't it an old dragon? Aunt Li shouted angrily.

As soon as Jiang Longchang came back to his senses, he saw his daughter move, and turned his head to look in astonishment, as if he was looking for something.

Jiang Longchang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly ran out with his mobile phone.

Uncle Li's face also froze, and he subconsciously held his breath.

Aunt Li walked up to Uncle Li and asked strangely, "What's wrong?" Why don't you speak? Isn't it an old dragon? ”

Uncle Li hurriedly pressed his hand, "Don't make noise!" ”

"Hey, you old manβ€”"

"There's something going on there, don't make any noise." Uncle Li said in a low voice.

Aunt Li stopped talking and leaned over to look at the phone screen.

Jiang Longchang had already hid in the corner of the corridor at this time, looked around, and saw no one, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and half complained: "I didn't expect your voice to be heard by the boss." ”

Aunt Li was surprised: "Are you in your old family?" And when you go to see your little son first. ”

Uncle Li wanted to ask Jiang Longchang what he said, but Aunt Li took the lead, so he subconsciously shut up and waited for Aunt Li to finish speaking. But Aunt Li's words began, where is the time to shut up?

Jiang Longchang didn't squeak.

He has four children, the eldest daughter is the eldest, who took care of his younger siblings when he was a child, and when he grew up, he took care of the two elders and took the most responsibility. The youngest son is the least successful, and he becomes a scoundrel at a young age, which worries them the most as a couple. In the eyes of others, it was they who favored the younger son, bullied the eldest daughter, and snubbed the other two children. And that's not wrong.

It's just that after the death of their husband and wife, they entered the capital of Xudu, separated from others, and unilaterally received the objects burned by their eldest daughter, and their minds slowly changed.

Aunt Li didn't wait for him to answer, so she counted down: "I told Sister Cui a long time ago that you kid has been spoiled since he was a child, and people have been wasted. The baby son doesn't have this treasure method. Don't talk about your old man and wife, that temper, hey...... Sister Cui can't speak anyway, you don't say it as a son, your own son is spoiled like that, they kicked their feet away, and it wasn't you and Sister Cui who suffered in the end? Even the children themselves will have to suffer sooner or later. If you really have older brothers and sisters, you can rely on your brothers and sisters to take care of them for the rest of your life? Not to mention that they themselves are all married, there are old and young, that is, people's hearts, they are all flesh and blood, how do they look at how you favor that kid, how can that kid be muddy, and you can still manage him willingly? Ah, by the way, what about Sister Cui? Didn't come back with you? What's it like over there? Isn't it good? Are you used to living? ”

Aunt Li chattered for a long time, topic after topic, and at the end of the question, she finally took a breath and gave Jiang Longchang a chance to answer.

Jiang Longchang didn't want to mention the bad things in his family, and when he heard Aunt Li stop, he was also relieved, and he was afraid that Aunt Li would be as endless as a machine gun, so he immediately replied: "Get used to living, live habitually!" When I got there, I didn't have to worry about anything, I didn't have to eat or drink, and I could do whatever I wanted every day. ”

"But the phone doesn't work, does it?" Aunt Li asked about the topic she was most concerned about.

She is now a low-headed person, and leaving her phone is like dying. Just knowing that the signal was not good, she was worried for a long time.

Of course, with Aunt Li's character, the so-called "worrying about the old for a long time" is also an exaggerated rhetorical device. She thought that the signal in Xudu was not good, so she would only hurry up and play with her mobile phone more.

Jiang Longchang is not a low-headed family, the first mobile phone was burned to him by Uncle Li, and he relied on his friends there to teach him for several days before he figured out a little way. Playing games is not a high difficulty for him, but something of another dimension.

"It's not very easy to use. The signal is not good. I heard them say that when there are more people in the capital in the past few years, maybe they will be fine. Jiang Longchang parroted and shared the gossip he heard with Aunt Li, "They say that young people die a lot now, especially those who make mobile phones and computers, and there are many young people who die suddenly." A few days ago, two young people who made mobile phones entered the city. But it wasn't a sudden death, it was hit by a car. If you want to talk about this way of death, it is still the most common death from illness and car collision. ”

Jiang Longchang is also a sociable person, and he can talk about the mountains with anyone, but when he meets the strong Aunt Li, he is somewhat led by the nose. Aunt Li doesn't speak, and he can start the topic himself.

As soon as the two of them talked about this, they put Uncle Li aside.

Uncle Li didn't feel lonely, but felt that this scene was familiar and kind.

In the past, when the two of them came and went, Aunt Li and Jiang Longchang kept talking, and he and Sister Cui were stuffy gourds, always being listeners by the side.

Aunt Li didn't know if she had a heart with Uncle Li, but she also remembered Sister Cui and asked Sister Cui a few words. Jiang Longchang answered one by one.

Aunt Li sighed with emotion: "Fortunately, you don't have to live with your wife and them, and you don't have to take care of the little ones, Sister Cui can be relaxed." ”

Jiang Longchang could only laugh dryly. His parents were loving fathers and mothers to him, but not to people other than blood relatives. Strangers can say that Sister Cui's daughter-in-law is not a person inside and out, although she is not abused, but after decades of cold faces, she is still picked and thorned from time to time, and it is uncomfortable for people. Fortunately, Sister Cui has a gentle personality and can endure it, otherwise the family will definitely be restless.

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

waited until Jiang Longchang heard the movement of someone walking outside the corridor before he came back to his senses.

Jiang Longchang and Uncle Li were both in a trance. It was as if they were all still alive, and the conversation just now was no different from when they were alive, and the world after death had very little impact on them.

Aunt Li was very arrogant, and invited Jiang Longchang: "We are staying in the hotel now, do you want to come over?" I knew that I should ask you to bring Sister Cui back together, the four of us just have a table of mahjong, we can rent a box and get an automatic mahjong machine...... Well, I'll stay here for two days, and the old man can stay a little longer. When are you going to go back to the capital? If you want to stay for a long time, you can accompany Lao Li more. ”

Jiang Longchang showed hesitation, "I'm coming out of the winter solstice, and I should go back when the winter solstice is over." ”

"That's a tight schedule." Aunt Li spoke Uncle Li's heart.

Jiang Longchang and Uncle Li looked at each other, both of them were full of regret, and then they looked at each other and smiled.

"It's okay. We'll have a long time to get along with in the future. Jiang Longchang said.

Uncle Li nodded.

Aunt Li looked at her mobile phone and suddenly said, "Ouch, my TV series has started." I went to watch TV. You two old men play by yourself. After she finished speaking, she ran away. A short time later, the sound of a TV sounded in the room.

Uncle Li and Jiang Longchang are separated by mobile phones, what can be fun?

But in the end, I haven't seen each other for a long time, I haven't spoken, and I've become ghosts, and there are still a lot of topics.

Aunt Li was not there, and the person who spoke naturally became Jiang Longchang.

"What about you...... If only I could figure out something. Jiang Longchang said gloomily.

It was a thorn in his heart. Even if Uncle Li looks good now, "life" seems to be very good, but Jiang Longchang is still haunted.

After all, Uncle Li is dead, or is he dying.

Uncle Li comforted: "I'm also a lot older, this is a matter of early and late." Speaking of which, it's all fate, it's just so coincidental that it's called the name Li Yun...... I still have to thank you, otherwise even if I die, it won't be like this, I don't know if I will become a lonely ghost, or that kind of evil ghost......"

That's right.

If it weren't for Jiang Longchang's early warning, Uncle Li would have been killed like that, and he might have died in a daze, or he might not have been at peace after his death.

But then again, if it weren't for Jiang Longchang's early warning, Uncle Li wouldn't have burned the paper money, and it was the woman named Li Yun who died that night, not Uncle Li, Uncle Li might be safe and sound after that, and another Li Yun would die instead of him.

Uncle Li did not tell Jiang Longchang about the latter conjecture.

He smiled and shared his various experiences after his death with Jiang Longchang. His life after death is much richer than Jiang Longchang's.

Jiang Longchang was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he also gained insight. He introduced Uncle Li to the situation of Xudu, which also opened Uncle Li's eyes.

The two of them said this directly, and they stopped when both sides were dry-mouthed.

Aunt Li didn't know when she ordered takeout. When she took the takeaway, Uncle Li didn't pay attention, and when Uncle Li stopped talking, he found that the smell of food wafted in the room.

Aunt Li has already eaten it, so she doesn't care about Uncle Li at all. When Uncle Li looked over, she also said confidently: "You're dead, you don't have to eat, drink and Lazar, right?" ”

"Yes, don't ......" Uncle Li looked at the dishes on the table and knew that Aunt Li still called her share.

Jiang Longchang smiled: "You guys eat." I'll go back and see the boss. ”

"Don't look at your little son." When Aunt Li heard this, she shouted from afar.

Jiang Longchang's face stiffened.

Uncle Li sensed something and glanced at Aunt Li.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If you want to say that you and Sister Cui are dead, and you are all fine in Xudu, don't worry so much. Aunt Li continued.

Jiang Longchang was silent and lowered his eyes slightly.

Uncle Li wanted to speak and stopped.

Aunt Li thought for a while, only listening to her own voice in the room, and there was no sound on the other end of the mobile phone, so she couldn't help but give Uncle Li a look.

Uncle Li replied with a look, not like before, he would stop Aunt Li's rambling words.

The old husband and wife have a tacit understanding.

Aunt Li saw this situation, put down her chopsticks and walked to Uncle Li's side.

Jiang Longchang and Uncle Li and Aunt Li didn't know each other for the first day. He raised his eyelids, looked at Uncle Li, and then looked at Aunt Li, "Xiaolan, tell me honestly, is there something wrong with that kid?" ”

Aunt Li didn't mean to hide it, "I also listened to what your boss said." When he slandered someone, he was beaten and hit his head. ”

Jiang Longchang was surging with blood.

He was already a ghost, and when his blood was surging, he didn't have a red face and red ears, but wisps of black gas came out of his body.

Uncle Li chuckled in his heart.

Aunt Li couldn't see this change in Jiang Longchang, and continued: "The person was hung there at the time, and it took several hours to find out, call an ambulance, and then live in that ICU for a few days, and the money is not enough. Don't blame your boss, the three of them made up 100,000 yuan. What did you and your wife do to them before? The little money in the family, as well as the old house, were all given to the younger son, right? And your little son, how did he treat his brother and sister? They are willing to give 100,000 yuan, which is already benevolent and righteous. His own wife and son don't want to care about him. ”

"What about the others now?" Jiang Longchang asked.

"People are at home, they are in a vegetative state, and every day the nurses come to help take care of them. The caregiver is still hired by the eldest of your family. Aunt Li replied.

Jiang Longchang fell silent.

Uncle Li sighed, "Old Dragon, don't think about it so much. You're all dead, and the rest is their siblings' business. ”

Jiang Longchang's eyes were red, but he didn't burst into tears.

He opened his mouth, but didn't make a sound.

If he were still alive, he might be able to do something, maybe he would be able to take care of his youngest and least successful son. And then what? He's going to die. Will the situation be different then?

Aunt Li's first words were not wrong. From the time his parents doted on his little son, and their husband and wife left it alone, this ending was probably doomed.

Jiang Longchang exhaled a long breath, but the black qi on his body did not dissipate with his exhalation.

Uncle Li was worried.

"Each man has his own life, and every man has his own way of living. But when you die, it's all over and you don't have to worry about anything. If you want me to say, it will be sooner or later. When you see him, you'll have to scold him. Don't be ...... like that after you die," Aunt Li said.

Uncle Li frowned, "Okay, you, it's endless." ”

"I'm also giving Lao Long a vaccination. We're all old, and they're all dead, except for the two of us, who else can he listen to now? That's all we can say. Aunt Li was full of words, and persuaded Jiang Longchang again, "Old Long, don't blame me for speaking badly. How many years of friendship between our two families. Well, that's not true. It's not the two of us, it's just the four of us, how many years of friendship, right? The two of us have never interacted with each other. When I die, the relationship will be broken. It's okay, because the old man was dead, and we can still talk. Tell me, now apart from the four of us, between the four of us, who else can talk about these things? ”

Jiang Longchang sighed in his heart. It's true that only the four of them are left in the world to speak.

Aunt Li said again: "Don't drill into the tip of the horns. It's all human life. As a parent, the time that can take care of their sons and daughters is only a few years, and we can't help or control what happens to them later. You have to keep thinking about it, and you don't let go all the time, but you hurt them. Besides, you're a ghost now. I heard the old man say that ghosts are not the same as people. When people have hot brains and do foolish things, ghosts have hot brains and don't know what they will do. You have to think about it, don't be impulsive. As the old saying goes, people die like a lamp goes out, and when the lamp goes out, it goes out, and when this life is over, you shouldn't care about the living anymore. Do you think that's the truth? ”

Aunt Li's words do make sense. But there are some things that can be explained clearly without taking advantage of the truth.

Jiang Longchang let out another long breath, "Wait for me to look at him, look at him...... Let's talk about it later. ”

Uncle Li hurriedly said, "Then I'll go with you to have a look." ”

Jiang Longchang laughed, "Okay." If you really want anything, you'll have to stop me. ”

Uncle Li nodded solemnly.

The two made an appointment and ended the long call.

Uncle Li held his phone and looked at Aunt Li.

Aunt Li squinted at Uncle Li, "What? You don't think I should mention this, please? ”

Uncle Li shook his head, "You...... Anyway, I told you, and you won't listen to me. ”

"Hmph. Let me tell you, it's better to talk about this sooner rather than later. I'm not like you. That kid is also the one we watched grow up, and he didn't learn well since he was a child. You'll be fine when he's old. How is that possible? Three-year-olds see old. Hum. Do you think he'll be at peace when he's dead? If there were no ghosts in this world, it would be up to him whether he was dead or alive......"

Uncle Li frowned, "What do you mean?" What else did you not tell the old dragon? ”

Aunt Li was interrupted by Uncle Li, she was not angry, she only pursed her lips, and said with rare hesitation: "I just listened to what their boss said...... Perhaps, his soul has already escaped...... Man is still alive, but the soul has escaped. The guy who hit him was scared crazy just as he was lying in the ICU...... And the boss...... I don't know if he's eyeing the boss......"
