A few days later, when Chi Ruochu was playing at the beach, he heard the voice of A Niu Niang calling A Niu.

She turned her head strangely to see that the gray-haired Niu Niang was inquiring about her son's whereabouts.

Seeing Chi Ruochu looking at her, A Niu Niu immediately rushed over, "Tell me, have you seen A Niu? It's the tall one, the one who looks very simple, and the ears are a bit big."

A Niu Niang also raised her arm to gesture for A Niu's height.

Chi Ruochu wanted to say that he had met A Niu, but Ah Wen told him that he was not allowed to say that he had met A Niu.

So she shook her head, "I haven't seen him."

A Niuniang walked away disappointed, while Chi Ruochu was still sitting on the swing, staring blankly into the distance.

It was getting dark, and some fishermen in the village came back, and they brought back A Niu's body.

Ah Niu's body was badly bitten by the fish in the sea, but his face could be seen vaguely.

Niu Niu threw herself on the corpse and wailed loudly. Everyone in the village said that Niu was drunk and wanted to go fishing, but accidentally capsized the boat and drowned in the sea.

At this time, Wen Shao would always comfort her and help her wipe away the tears on her face.

Everyone in the small fishing village was busy with A Niu's funeral. Even old man Li didn't go fishing for several days, and was always busy with A Niu's family.

"A Niu Niang has always come to get this son, but the conditions are not good, and she likes to beat people, even his mother can be cruel."

"Don't cry, I just went to live underground, and I might have a better life there."

"Xiao Chu, I actually lied to you about many things, but you will remember them in the future. I just hope you don't hate me so much when you think of me."

"But I saw the child was crying when it was born, but the adults next to him said they were congratulating. Why should they congratulate? The child was crying so badly?"

Chi Ruochu held Wen Shao's hand. Here, she only knew Wen Shao. Wen Shao treated her so well. Without Wen Shao, she really didn't know how to live in this small fishing village.

Wen Shao put a piece of meat from the belly of the fish into the pond Ruochu, "Don't talk about these unhappy things, Xiaochu, didn't you save some shells a few days ago, I punched them all and put them on I made you a necklace, just as you drew it on the paper, and it is very beautiful."

Chi Ruochu was at a loss in the face of this situation. She was still wondering why her family members cried when someone died, but now she couldn't help crying.

"Xiao Chu, someone will come to pick you up after a while. When you go with them, you will return to your previous life, and you won't have to eat fish all the time. You used to hate eating fish the most."

Old man Li patted his thigh and laughed, "Xiao Chu talked more and more. In the beginning, he didn't say a word for a few days, but now he talks so much in one breath."

Chi Ruochu wiped carelessly, but couldn't stop, even his hands were stained with blood.

Things like this are not uncommon in small fishing villages by the sea, and A Niu Niang also accepted this fact and began to arrange for A Niu's funeral.

"By the way, when you didn't come back today, Niu Niu came to ask me where Niu went? Did you see him? I said no, and then someone brought A Niu's body back from the sea. There are many tooth marks on the corpse, which I have never seen before."

After a long time, Chi Ruochu finally ate something other than fish.

Naturally, Wen Shao also went, and gained many ambiguous looks from the young daughters-in-law and older girls in the village.

Just after wiping his nosebleed, new nosebleed came out again.

Wen Shao was already skinny, and would spit out the food he ate. He leaned against the head of the bed, his face pale.

"Don't say it, it really makes sense."

Wen Shao's hand holding the chopsticks could not help but tighten, "Because people leave when they die, and the living are reluctant to part with it, so they cry."

Speaking of A Niu's death, old man Li sighed a little.

But she didn't know the reason, and the tears just flowed down uncontrollably.

Chi Ruochu was cheerful, "I also think what I said makes sense."

In the past, Wen Shao made a bed on the ground and was slept on, but now Chi Ruochu gave up his bed.

It wasn't until old man Li and Wen Shao came back for dinner that Chi Ruochu asked at the dinner table, "Why are you crying when you're dead?"

For those who help with the funeral, A Niu's family will provide meals, and every time Wen Shao will take his portion of the meal home and eat it with Chi Ruochu.

It's a pity that Wen Shao turned a blind eye to them.

Biting his chopsticks, Chi Ruochu asked again, "Why do people cry when they are born?"

Chi Ruochu lowered his eyes, "A Niu Niang is really pitiful."

Wen Shao coughed twice, and his nose felt hot again, so Chi Ruochu quickly wiped off his nosebleed.

Until the nosebleed stopped by itself, Wen Shao took a clean cloth, squeezed Chi Ruochu's hand, and wiped off the blood bit by bit, even between the fingers.

Wen Shao put the necklace on the table, Chi Ruochu picked it up excitedly, and gestured on his left and right wrists.

"Life on the ground is good. You can continue to live for decades, and then you can go down to find me."

"maybe."

After the funeral was over, Wen Shao Wen Shao's body became weaker day by day, and even when he went fishing, he became old man Li alone.

Chi Ruochu retorted: "I like to eat fish, which is nutritious. You said that."

Every time she had to eat until she was full, she would stop, and Wen Shao sat beside her, looking at her tenderly.

Seeing them crying bitterly, Chi Ruochu sat on the swing and shook his feet casually.

Chi Ruochu had tears in his eyes, "I don't hate you."

"There is no big girl in the village who likes him, and even a few widows don't want to live with him. They are in their thirties, and they don't have a wife. Now they are dead. To A Niuniang, the world's most feared There's no bigger blow than that."

People are not stingy when it comes to black and white happy events.

"Maybe they will live better underground than on the surface after death."

Serving him tea and water every day, I hope that his health will get better soon.

I still decided to wear it on the wrist that already wore the bracelet. The two bracelets are completely different in style, but when they are close together, they have a different kind of beauty.

"Can I go with you?"

Wen Shao explained patiently: "Because they just came to this world, this world is very strange to them, and the children are young, so they will feel scared."

"They have come to this strange world, and they don't know what it will be like, and adults don't know what the world after death is like, but one is laughing and the other is crying. It's really strange."

Every time old man Li looked at it, he shook his head and went out, then sat at the door and smoked.

Wen Shao made a strong effort, "Xiao Chu is obedient, when someone comes to you, you go with him, he will take care of you, and I just take care of you for a while, he is your real husband, and I'm just a thief who stole these few months with you."

Chi Ruochu was silent for a long time, "Then can you go with me? I don't know him, and I don't have this person in my mind."

Wen Shao's eyes fell on the two bracelets on Chi Ruochu's wrist.

"If you wear these two bracelets, it means that I am walking with you."

"Xiao Chu is obedient, you shouldn't stay here."
