This is the bridge where we go, and we can finally hold hands and grow old together.

Our country has a vast land area of more than 9 million square kilometers and countless rural towns, and in some of these small villages and ancient towns, many ancient traditions and customs are still maintained in the contemporary era when culture, science and technology, and ideology are advancing rapidly.

In a small village called Gushu Village, there is such a strange and strange custom, that is, if one of the husband and wife dies early, then the body of this person cannot be buried, and after some special embalming treatment, it is placed in the room where he lives, and he can not be buried together until his spouse is a hundred years old.

What's even more bizarre is that this custom allows people who have lost their spouses to marry again and find a spouse, but requires that the body of the ex must be placed in the "newlyweds" In the sleeping room, you can imagine the picture, a couple of newlyweds on the bed were supposed to be in the cave room with candles, but under the bed there is a lover who has passed away, this is not counted, if both parties are widowed and reunited, then there should be two corpses on the ground, if who has the life of Kevke's wife, and the number of marriages is more, then the body of each of his (her) spouses should be placed in the room of his (her) and his current spouse, and the whole cave room is like a morgue, are you still in the mood to do other things?

Of course, to have such a traditional custom, it can be seen that the people in the village are loyal to their other half, and many times if one party dies early, the other party will guard the corpse of the other party and die alone, just hoping that one can be with him for a long time after death.

Zhang Xiaokai came out of Gushu Village, and he has long been surprised by this custom in his hometown, there is a dead body in the home of almost an elderly person in the village, and Xiaokai is busy with work on weekdays and rarely goes back to his hometown to take a look, but this time he must go back, because his grandmother, who died more than 20 years ago, will be buried today.

When he got the news, Xiao Kai was taken aback, and thought that his grandfather, who was still alive and strong, had also passed away, but listening to the family, grandpa is still alive and well, as for why he buried his grandmother, he will tell him more after Xiao Kai goes back.

The funeral of the ancestors must be attended, the day of the small open and the unit asked for leave, drove hundreds of kilometers back to the hometown, arrived home when it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon, because it was a relatively short winter day, more than five o'clock when the sky was already a little dark, the family has been all arranged, grandma's coffin was placed in the old house compound temporarily erected in the spirit shed, grandpa sat aside, one hand stroked the coffin, a sad look.

Grandpa hurts Zhang Xiaokai the most, every time Xiaokai comes back, grandpa is very happy, Xiaokai said hello to relatives and friends as soon as he entered the yard, and then went to talk to grandpa in the spirit shed, telling grandpa that he was back, grandpa's reaction was mediocre, just looked up at Xiaokai and said "oh", and lowered his head again.

Xiao Kai felt that someone was pulling the corner of his clothes, and when he looked back, he saw that it was his father, and his father took Xiao Kai aside and explained: "Xiao Kai, your grandfather is still strong, but we are going to hold a funeral for your grandmother, don't you think it's very sudden?" Xiao Kai nodded and waited for his father to continue.

"You also know that your grandmother died early, and it has been more than 20 years now, your grandfather has been guarding your grandmother's body for more than 20 years, this time the government said that it will carry out unified rural planning, and our village is also in the planning quota, when the time comes, these old houses will be forcibly demolished, and the government has also allocated us a house in the city, you think about it, we will all have to move to the city, and we can't move the coffin upstairs, even if our family doesn't feel anything, but how can the neighbors explain to them? So I'm going to talk to your uncles and uncles about burying your grandmother before planning."

"Grandpa and grandma have such a good relationship, isn't grandpa reluctant to do this?"

"But it's not, you see that your grandfather has been thinking about tea and food all day since he learned the news, although he agreed with us to do this, but we all know that your grandfather is a hundred unwilling in his heart! Tomorrow your grandmother will have a funeral, the family is almost arranged, and you don't need to help you anything, grandpa's favorite person is you, you will accompany grandpa tonight to chat, and persuade him to want to open a little."

"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely persuade grandpa."

In the evening, everyone was busy all day and almost went to rest, only Xiao Kai accompanied the grandfather who refused to leave in the mourning shed to keep the spirit for his grandmother, the old and the young were not very talkative, and the old man was now very sad in his heart, so there was nothing to say between the two.

Xiao Kai's task this time is to persuade grandpa, how to persuade him to be silent like this? Xiao Kai thought that he should make his grandfather happy, and if he wanted to make his grandfather happy, he had to talk about his grandmother's story, so Xiao Kai asked about the romantic story of his grandfather and grandma when they were together, and sure enough, grandpa's interest was immediately raised, and he gently patted the coffin lid with his hand, as if stroking his beloved's long hair, and slowly told Xiao Kai about the story of his and Xiao Kai's grandmother when they were young.

At that time, the feelings were pure revolutionary friendship, absolutely pure and not mixed with a trace of distractions, do not pay attention to any real money and silver material, as long as the two really like each other, they can be together, you can get everyone's support and recognition, tightly used one hundred and twenty-eight yuan plus a watch, grandpa married grandma home, this one hundred and twenty-eight yuan is not for grandma, it is used to buy banquets, buy some daily necessities, compared to marrying a wife now, that is really crying to death!

"We said that we must be with each other for the rest of our lives, but I didn't expect her to leave me so early, she said that although she is gone, I must live well, and she will be in another

The world bless me with a long life, and I will wait for me on the side of the bridge, if one day I am old and can't live, I will go to the bridge to find her, and we will be a ghost couple together forever......" Speaking of this, Grandpa Xiaokai actually shed tears of happiness, which made Xiaokai, who had just fallen out of love, very moved to hear it, and envied the deep relationship between grandpa and grandma, and looked forward to finding such a person who loved him as soon as possible.

The winter night was very cold, Xiao Kai's mother got up in the middle of the night to get two thick cotton clothes for Xiao Kai and his grandfather, and found that Xiao Kai had fallen asleep sitting on the chair, but Xiao Kai's grandfather was gone, and his mother hurriedly woke up Xiao Kai and asked where his grandfather went, Xiao Kai didn't know how he fell asleep listening to the story, and he didn't know where his grandfather went.

The mother hurriedly went back to the house to wake up the father, who had just fallen asleep, and the family of three searched for a circle but did not find it, so they mobilized all their relatives and friends to look for it together, but there was still no trace of Grandpa Xiaokai.

At this time, the sky was already bright, someone inadvertently found that the coffin lid of Xiao Kai's grandmother was not tightly covered, and there was a small gap, an ominous premonition instantly surged into everyone's hearts, everyone came to the coffin, several young people worked together to open the coffin lid, and found that Xiao Kai's grandfather was in the coffin and Xiao Kai's grandmother who had become a dry corpse lying side by side, and the body was already cold, but Xiao Kai's grandfather had a happy smile on his face, and the family said that since grandma left, it was the first time to see grandpa smiling so happily。
