The two hundred and sixty-seventh night of the monument was changed
Lonely night, lonely heart, soul with nowhere to rest! Can't sleep? Come and tell you a story, the story we are going to tell today is called "Changing the Monument"!
The wife who has been with Lao Zhang for 50 years has passed away, Lao Zhang is very sad and sad, if it weren't for a few filial children desperately stopping him, it is estimated that Lao Zhang would have followed his wife a long time ago.
After finishing his wife's funeral, several children asked their old father to follow them to live in the city, but Lao Zhang said nothing, because he had lived in the countryside for most of his life, and he already had a deep affection for the grass and trees here.
The wife was buried on the hillside opposite Lao Zhang's house, this is what Lao Zhang meant, because when he looked up at home, he could see his wife's grave from a distance, and the children knew that Lao Zhang and his wife had a deep relationship, and although he was old, his body was still very tough, so he did not persuade too much, but after the death of the old mother, the children came back to see Lao Zhang more often.
Worried that Lao Zhang is lonely and lonely, the children also bought a big color TV for Lao Zhang, you can receive a lot of TV programs, this gift seems to make Lao Zhang very satisfied, since I bought a big color TV, I rarely see Lao Zhang alone, go to the mountains to accompany my wife, and look at my wife's grave bag at the door of the house in a daze.
This day is Lao Zhang's birthday, several children all came to celebrate Lao Zhang's birthday, during the meal, Lao Zhang said to several children, want to learn TV to set up a stone monument for his wife, there is a young man named Chen Er in the village, just came back from the city to learn this craft, several families have asked him to do it, the price is also very cheap, so Lao Zhang also wants to set up one for his wife.
Several children have their own jobs in the city, the income is not very high but not low, the old man just asked for such a little, naturally he agreed without hesitation, and found Chen Er after eating, and called him the full amount of money, only one requirement is to make a good one as soon as possible!
Seeing that there was business coming to the door, Chen Er naturally smiled happily, and immediately patted his chest and said that he would definitely carve a stone tablet that satisfied them as soon as possible.
To say that Chen Er, this kid is really very trustworthy, it only took two days to carve the stone tablet of Lao Zhang's wife according to their requirements, and came to Lao Zhang's house to find Lao Zhang to inspect the goods.
Lao Zhang's life is really not easy, he has sent several children to college, but he is a veritable "illiterate", he has only attended night school for a few days, and he can't recognize a few characters of Douda, only to see that the stone tablet carved by Chen Er is big and deep enough, and it looks similar to that on TV, plus they are all from the same village, it is estimated that Chen Er will not lie to himself, so Lao Zhang said that there is nothing wrong with this stone tablet.
Chen Er, this young man is really good, I heard Lao Zhang say that there was no problem, so he found a few guys from the same village that day, and helped to set up the stele for the old man, in order to thank a few young people, Lao Zhang also let Chen Er and others drink wine at their own house.
The stele was erected, Lao Zhang's heart was steady, and he sent away a few young people who were a little drunk, Lao Zhang packed everything up, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, for people who were used to going to bed early and getting up early, this time was already very late, so Lao Zhang was ready to go to sleep on the kang.
Like many people, I habitually like to look at my phone and read a book before going to bed, and wait until my eyes are tired and a little sleepy, and then I put down my work and rest.
Lao Zhang turned on the radio placed next to the pillow, which was left by his little grandson Zhang Xiaokai last time, every day at this time the radio will broadcast some stories, today is a story called Qu Youran wrote a "change monument", so that the old man felt very interesting, the story is not very long, after listening to the old man also had a little sleepy, turned off the radio and covered the quilt to prepare for sleep, suddenly heard a "jingling" iron knocking sound from the hillside in front of his house.
Lao Zhang couldn't help but be surprised, this thing can't be so coincidental, right? Could it be that his wife was not satisfied with the stone monument he had erected, and really crawled out of the grave to change the stone monument himself? Thinking of this, Lao Zhang hurriedly dressed and got off the kang and picked up the flashlight casually, but after thinking about it, he put down the flashlight again, why? Because he knew that ghosts were afraid of light, and it was easy for his soul to be scattered when he was illuminated by light, and he didn't want to hurt his wife.
Walking into the courtyard, Lao Zhang stopped to listen, confirmed that the sound was coming from the opposite hillside, and immediately walked to the graveyard of his wife on the hillside by the bright moonlight.
From a distance, Lao Zhang saw that in front of the tombstone of his wife's grave, there was a person squatting and revising the words on the tombstone, because the light was relatively dim, Lao Zhang couldn't see who that person was, but just after watching the ghost story, Lao Zhang felt that that person must be his wife, and immediately shouted his wife's name excitedly.
The person in front of the stele was engrossed in modifying the tombstone, and suddenly heard someone behind him shouting the name of the deceased, and he was so frightened that he raised his legs and ran, and when Lao Zhang arrived at him, he found that the person who modified the stele was gone, and he also lost a hammer and chisel for carving the stele on the ground.
Modify the stele this is naturally not Lao Zhang's wife, but Chen Er, who made the stele, because he was in too much hurry, Chen Er carved the name of the deceased into the wrong word, and it was more troublesome to modify, he remembered that Lao Zhang was illiterate, so he wanted to fool the past like this, who knew that Lao Zhang was so good to himself, and he still kept himself drinking at home, Chen Er felt too bad in his heart, so he wanted to take advantage of the night to secretly change the words on the stele, but he didn't expect to be discovered by Lao Zhang, so he was scared and fled in a hurry.
The next morning, the door of Chen Er's house was knocked, and when he opened the door, he was startled when he saw that it was Lao Zhang, but he also pretended to be calm and asked Lao Zhang what was the matter with him, Lao Zhang smiled and threw the hammer and chisel he picked up last night in front of Chen Er and asked: "These things are yours" Chen Er scratched his head in embarrassment, and told Lao Zhang the truth.
Lao Zhang scolded with a smile: "You little rabbit cub, if you are wrong, you are wrong, I thought I met my wife, which made me happy in vain."
Lao Zhang didn't blame Chen Er, as compensation, Chen Er took the guy to Lao Zhang that night and said that he wanted to help his wife modify the stone tablet, and also explained that the night in the world is the day of the ghost world, and at this time, he went to the province to disturb people's rest, Lao Zhang was very happy and followed Chen Er.
When he arrived at the cemetery, Chen Er looked at the words on the stele, and was so frightened that he dropped the tools in his hand on the ground, because the words on the stele had been changed, and then looked at the grave bag of Lao Zhang's wife, there was some new soil, as if someone had climbed out of it and repaired the hole that climbed out again!
"Uncle Zhang, it seems that Aunt Zhang really came out to change the stele!" Lao Zhang couldn't help but cry when he saw it, seeing Lao Zhang's excited appearance, Chen Er thought to himself, he really didn't work in vain this time!
