Chapter 7 is already a matter of things and people
I was only five years old when I was taken away, and I vaguely remember the deserted grave on the west side of the village, and everything else is very vague.
After asking and inquiring along the way, I finally came to my childhood hometown.
There were a few people chatting there at the entrance of the village, and I stepped forward and asked, "How do you get to the dog's house?" ”
I don't remember the location of my family, and I can't remember my father's real name, but I remember his nickname being Godan.
When several people heard the word "dog", their faces suddenly became gloomy, as if something unfortunate had happened.
They seemed disgusted by me, a "stranger-dressed stranger".
One of the aunts even stepped forward directly and pushed me: "Let's go, go aside." ”
I thought to myself what was wrong, when I was a child, I remember that my father was very popular with the people in the village! But now his name is like that of the plague god.
I had no choice but to rely on my own memories to search alone, and in a corner I found a person crouching there cowering.
The man had his back to me, as if he was eating something, and from behind he looked like a woman, and he was very old, and his skinny appearance made people look uncomfortable.
Finally, I finally mustered up the courage to step forward and ask, "Grandma, how do you go?" ”
When the old man heard the name, he stopped what he was doing and turned his head slowly.
When I saw what she was holding, I realized that she was munching on a chicken there, and it was a live chicken.
The old man's mouth was covered with chicken feathers, and there was a slight blood stain on the corner of his mouth.
When she saw me, she smirked: "I know, I know, hey, hey, hey!" ”
I was overjoyed to hear this, and finally found it, but I always felt that the old man's back was somewhat familiar, but I just couldn't remember it.
On the way, I snatched the live chicken from the old man's hand and handed her some dry food that I had brought with me, and the old man took it and devoured it, smirking at me as he ate.
After turning around, I finally came to a house, the gate was already dilapidated, and the yard was even more empty, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.
I couldn't believe that this was my home, but the memories brought me back to reality, and the scenes of childhood play are vivid.
the scene when my father was frolicking with me; the image of my mother mending my clothes in the sun; Grandma was embarrassed when she chased me with a broom; And my grandfather's smiling face when he sat on the swing with me, it seemed like yesterday.
Now the yard is full of weeds, and two pomegranate trees have died.
Just as I was deep in my memories, the old man shouted as he walked into the house, "Dog, someone has come looking for you." ”
The old man said, turning back and smiling, "You wait, I'll call him for you." ”
After a while, the old man first poked his head out and whispered, "He's here, you see." ”
I saw the old man holding in his hand a paper figure that was burned for the dead, pointing at him and saying, "He is a dog!" ”
I was terrified in my heart, and I thought: I deserve it, I know that this person is crazy, but I want to come with her, stupid!
After the old man put the paper figure away, he said to the paper man: "Dog, you are chatting with your friend, and my mother will cook for you." ”
"Mother? She is ......" At this time, my mind was in a mess, although I didn't want to admit it, but looking at her back, it was so familiar.
"Grandma! I'm Ai'er! ”
Tears slowly flowed from my eyes, and I hugged her from behind with a cry. My grandmother stared at me for a long time, and then said quietly, "What's wrong with your eyes?" Blind? ”
After listening to my grandmother's words, I took off my sunglasses, and when my grandmother saw it, she sighed, "Alas! You're very similar to my granddaughter's eyes, all like this. Alas! It's all poor kids. ”
"I wonder if my granddaughter is still alive now? Then you should be your age now! ”
Grandma said to herself, took out a small paper figure from her bosom, stroked her head gently, and said, "Hungry! Grandma cooks for you. ”
Leaning towards the kitchen.
I didn't dare to speak loudly, so I quietly followed my grandmother to the kitchen, which was covered with cobwebs, and it looked like no one had cooked in the house for a long time.
Grandma grabbed a handful of soil from the ground, fed it to the little paper man, and said, "Ai'er, eat quickly!" Don't be afraid, grandma is here. ”
Seeing the stupid and stupid grandmother, I kept asking repeatedly: What the hell is going on? What's really going on at home?
"Click!"
Someone outside the door accidentally stepped on a tree branch, I heard the sound and immediately chased after it, the man was a little too fat to run.
I caught up with him with ease, but I thought he looked familiar, especially the big black mole on his face.
I tentatively asked, "Are you three fat?" ”
The man was stunned and asked, "Who are you?" How do you know I'm triple fat? ”
I took off my sunglasses and said to him, "I'm Liu Ai'er!" Have you forgotten? ”
San Fat looked at me with a frightened face: "You...... Aren't you dead? Are you a human or a ghost? ”
After I put on my sunglasses, I habitually patted him on the head.
"Can a ghost come out in broad daylight? Besides, have you ever seen a ghost? ”
"I've seen it." The third fat replied with a sincere face.
