I'm Mrs.
Chapter 123
Chapter 123
"Fourth sister, what's the matter with you, look at how energetic Nai is today, you are not happy."
"You know what!!"
I was sitting on the ground, I couldn’t see anything clearly, my mind was full of bad premonitions, I would rather watch my grandma lying on the kang, and I would rather watch her play doperidine behind my back, but I don’t want to see the mental headache. Exuberant, she doesn't want to!
Perhaps it was because I shouted too loudly that my second uncle and aunt also came out of the house and came straight to me, "Baosi, listen to what my aunt told you..."
"No one needs to persuade her!!"
Grandma's attitude changed suddenly, and she just said in a voice, "Let her cry, make her make trouble! Isn't it possible to think of anything, then let her do it! Let's see what she wants to make a fuss in the end!"
"Mom, Baosi is also feeling uncomfortable..."
"What a pain! Didn't she tell me a year ago that she knew everything? You all come into the house and let her cry there. I'll leave when I cry enough!! Hurry up! , let me in!!"
I knelt on the ground and still raised my arms, grinning, shaking uncontrollably all over my body, I also want to be sensible, but grandma's words don't count, didn't she say wait for me to grow up, didn't she say wait for me...
'boom'!There was a sound of closing the door, and besides me crying, only Xiaoliu and King Kong were silently watching me in the yard.
I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Liu felt that my emotions could recover a bit, so he said lazily, "Fourth sister, I should be happy today, look, your mother is back, she..."
"Grandma is leaving."
"what?"
I looked at him like a fool with red and swollen eyeballs, "Grandma is leaving."
The half apple in Xiao Liu's hand fell to the ground with a 'grunt', and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Are you kidding me, does grandma seem to be leaving like this? Since she was diagnosed with illness in the city last year, the most energetic person is Today."
I took a deep breath to calm my mind, and watched him continue to open his mouth, "Do you still remember my grandma, she was ill for a long time, and then suddenly became very energetic, and then..."
Xiao Liu shook his head, staggered and sat on the ground opposite me, "Don't scare me, I can't, grandma said before, she will wait for you to arrive, you haven't reached eighteen yet, grandma can't count , You... No, I'll ask grandma, I'll ask her to be clearer!"
After finishing speaking, he staggered up and ran towards the back room. After entering the door, he didn't know who said what to him, but he yelled in the room with his hoarse voice, "I don't Promise! You will lie! Grandma is fine! Grandma will be fine!!"
The door opened again, and Xiao Liu ran out and took my arm, "Fourth Sister! You go into the house and tell grandma, you said grandma should wait for you to turn eighteen, there is still one year left! One year!"
One year...
I looked at Xiao Liuliu's anxious and anxious face, and suddenly realized that we were all lying to ourselves. Even if I am eighteen now, can I send my grandma away as if nothing happened?
No, never, even next year, I will have a new excuse, but the only thing I can do now is to procrastinate, at least, one more day of procrastination, I can look at her more every day, live , can still talk, instead of waiting to sleep, occasionally, occasionally dreaming, untouchable.
I took Xiao Liu off my arm and pulled my hand, I slowly got up, "You ride my car and go to town."
Xiao Liu didn't seem to react, "What are you doing, you go into the house, go into the house to find grandma..."
"Buy trough cakes..."
I interrupted Xiao Liu and only expressed what I wanted to say, "Grandpa and grandma want something to eat, go and buy it..."
Xiao Liu was stunned, "Fourth sister, what kind of cakes are you buying at this time, hurry up..."
"Go!!"
I glared at him, "Didn't you listen to me, then go quickly, don't talk nonsense!!!"
Xiao Liu wiped away the tears viciously, gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay, I'll go! I'll go!!!"
As he said that, he picked up the bicycle that fell on the ground and walked towards the gate. When he got to the gate, he looked back at me, "Fourth sister, I want to tell you that I am one year younger than you, but I am a man." , no matter what happens, I can bear it with you!!"
I didn't answer, and stood there, looking back at Xiaoliu's face lightly all over my body. This feeling was probably the same as when I saw Sister Chaoyang, "I don't want to face it, but if I escape, I will regret it for life." Yes, you go, that's what grandma and grandpa want to eat, I'll wait for you to come back..."
Xiao Liu didn't talk anymore, he just got on my bicycle and rode away quickly.
Looking up, the spring breeze in May blows the catkins floating around in the yard. I really hate this kind of white fluffy objects. They seem to float directly into my throat with the wind, and they are stuck in my heart. Can't make me breathe.
Looking at the door of my house not far or near, I know what my grandma will talk to me after I go in, but I don’t want to hear it. It’s too tiring and depressing to pretend to be strong in my heart, and I don’t want to bear some things , if possible, I would rather become the me before the age of eight, like a fool, at least I am carefree every day.
The second uncle opened the door with complicated eyes, and his voice was chaotic and hoarse, "Sibao, your grandma is still waiting for you inside..."
I really wanted to shout, to go crazy, but I didn't have the strength just now. I walked to the door in a trance, and when I lifted my foot to go in, my second uncle pulled my arm, "Sibao, you are your grandma!" The biggest hope is not to let your grandma worry about you, you know."
I didn't speak, I didn't know what to say, my mind was empty, and there was nothing left.
The mother and the second aunt were both standing in the outer room. They supported each other and covered their mouths and sobbed softly. Their hearts were twitching. This kind of atmosphere, I think, anyone who faces it will go crazy...
"Don't cry, mom is fine, why are you crying?"
The second uncle scolded in a suppressed voice, "Don't forget, Mom hates others crying in front of her, it's bad luck."
I gritted my teeth hard, my cheeks were tense, and I opened the door of the room where I slept. When I raised my eyes, I saw my grandma sitting upright on the edge of the kang, looking at me, her whole face was so serious that she couldn't see it at all. Sad sentiment, "Shut the door."
I didn't need to move, but the second uncle outside the door heard a voice and slammed the door tightly, as if they all knew that this time was requested by my grandma, and I had to give it to me alone.
"Are you still crying?"
I stood opposite grandma with my head down, no nodding, no shaking my head, and no desire to speak.
There was no emotion in grandma's voice, she just opened her mouth with a trace of indifference, "What did you say when you helped me order a birthday party with Li Jianguo last year?"
"I've grown up, leave it to me, I'm not that fragile..."
The voice was a little hoarse, probably from shouting just now.
Grandma nodded, "What about you now, do I dare to hand over everything to you now? I'm leaving, and the Xue family will depend on you for the rest of my life. You know, you are the most like grandma. I know why Well, because your grandma and I don't want to be bullied, we have to be good people, but we can't be fooled by others, even though you are young, but you have some things that are clearer than your second uncle, so grandma don't worry, don't worry about everything I leave it all to you, but what were you doing just now, why, have you forgotten what you said?"
"You forgot..."
My neck seems to be strangled by a noose, and I can only breathe hard, "You said, you have to wait until I am an adult, otherwise you don't worry, so why..."
"I want to wait for you too, but my body doesn't wait for others!"
Grandma interrupted me with a long sigh, "Come here, come here!"
My lips kept trembling, and when I walked up to grandma, she grabbed my hand and put it directly on her fluffy and shiny hair, with a little force, I pressed my hand onto her scalp , "Sibao, what do you think grandma is waiting for... What are you waiting for..."
The palms can touch large and small bumps without any effort, one by one, hidden under the hair like beads, what's more, some beads fall together to grow——
Breaking down again, I watched my grandma keep shaking her head, "It will be fine, it will be fine..."
Grandma's eyes are also red, but her expression is still determined, "Grandma has grown horns, four treasures, grandma is cancer, if this goes on, grandma will leave, this body can't see people, grandma For the rest of my life, I don't want to be short of anyone wherever I go, even if I go, I want to be decent!"
I suppressed my crying, "Go to the hospital, go to the hospital for chemotherapy, it will kill, it will kill..."
Grandma shook her head gently, "Do you want grandma to continue to suffer? That's too much suffering. Five years ago, when grandma had surgery in Bincheng, those crimes were more severe than when I criticized them. But grandma could suffer at that time." Forbearance, grandma wants to live, wants to watch Sibao grow up, at least go downstairs, see you are too grandma, she asked me about you, I also have something to talk about, but now grandma can't stand it anymore, really Can't stop..."
Then, grandma lowered her voice and looked at me seriously, "Last night, your grandma came to see me. She stood by my kang and said to me, Fengnian, don't make trouble anymore, get down early , you don’t have to suffer all this——
Grandma really misses you grandma, I wanted to walk with her last night, but your grandma said, no, you haven't finished your business yet, you have to get everything done, you can't let Sibao is blind, we have discussed it, and when grandma understands it for you, grandma will go to her and reunite with her. If grandma has a lot of money, I want to talk to her. If your grandma knows that she is leaving you Crying, you must show off to me, saying that you still have a good relationship with her, right? "
I shook my head, speechless, tears flowed to my mouth, it was so salty, "No... not good..."
Grandma let out a sigh of relief and reached out to hug me, "Grandma has done a lot of things in this life, some things are right, some things are wrong, but there are still some things, I don't know if they are right or wrong, but no matter How to say, those things that grandma did wrong, should be repaid. Don’t think that grandma died of this disease. This is actually very good. Think about it. It's all over, if you go down, you won't suffer..."
"Grandma... I beg you, don't abandon me, you know I'll be smart, I'm not a husband yet, you have to watch me, watch me stop doing bad things..."
Grandma patted me on the back lightly, her voice was suppressed with a hint of reluctance, "Grandma really wanted to, but I can't, stop talking childish things, grandma knows that Sibao can handle grandma's funeral affairs very well." It’s so beautiful, my grandma’s life, until now, I’ve realized that what my elder brother said is true, just let nature take its course, why should I be obsessed with something.
Oh, remember, you should listen to your uncle. I think the most successful thing I did was to send you to your uncle. But it’s up to you. Now I think of what your uncle said I still want to laugh about making you count the leaves, my family's four treasures, why are you so smart. "
I shook my head desperately, "I'm not smart, I'm stupid, I'm stupid, if you leave, the whole village will bully me, everyone will bully me..."
"I'm going to get angry if you say that again!"
Grandma let go of her hand, and looked at me with snot and tears in her face pretending to be displeased, "How can people in the village still say you, you have to remember, the blood of my Xue family is flowing in your bones, and you are the one who is most like me. Xue Fengnian, since you're like me, you can't admit defeat, and you can't look down on yourself before others say anything, otherwise, the more you live, the more you sink in!"
I took the paper from my grandma and wiped my face vigorously, "As long as you live well, I will definitely be strong and brave..."
"Hiss! You child! I told you all the words for nothing, right?"
Grandma was anxious, "Do you still remember what you were like when you were a child!"
I shook my head, "I don't remember..."
"When you were young, no matter how big things happened, you knew how to eat when you were hungry, and you knew how to sleep when you were sleepy. Everyone has this day, and the ancestors have passed it down from generation to generation! Let me tell you, if you dare to leave me so devastated, I won’t be able to rest in peace even if I die!!”
Grandma gasped in anger, "I also want to wait, at least until you finish the high school entrance examination, but I can't wait with my broken body. Grandma just has one idea now, whether you can accept it or not, you have to accept it for me. You should eat, you should drink, you should study, if your grandma dares to seek death after grandma leaves, she will slap you in your dreams! Do you hear me!"
I pursed my lips and pursed my lips hard, but I still didn't want to nod.
"Dumb! If you're not dumb, tell me what I told you before! Hurry up!!"
Sniffing, I muttered and opened my mouth, "I'm Xue Baosi, the next leader of the Xue family. No matter what happens, I must take care of myself and not worry my family. At the same time, I must Take good care of my younger brother. In the future, if he is willing, let him stay by my side, seek the right way, and serve the common people. Don't deceive yourself, no matter how big it is, you have to eat and sleep. Only by living well can you solve the problem, otherwise, you will be looked down upon..."
When it came to the end, I really couldn't go on, my grandma kept urging with a cold face, "There is more!"
"Always... Be careful of that stele fairy at all times, don't be rash when things happen..."
Grandma nodded, "It's you I'm afraid of, you kid, I'm absolutely relieved when you're clear-headed, I'm afraid you'll let yourself in when you're hot-headed and ruthless, you must remember, no matter what you do, you must Thinking about the way out, if there is no way out, you can’t do it, you know!"
I sucked my nose hard, and my voice was almost squeezed out of my nose, "I know... I want to be kind with one thought and be compassionate in my heart, but, but, I'm afraid I can't do it!!!"
"If you can't do it, you have to do it for me!!"
Grandma is sharp-eyed, "I know why grandma can only be a leader in this life, it's because there are too many things that I can't understand! I'm too impatient. When I was young, I also studied Buddhism, but I can't understand it. It’s not good to catch up with the years, and I didn’t understand anything later, but you are different. You have caught up with the good years and become a master. You can’t be like grandma. You can’t be impatient. You know, grandma is not a big man, and I don’t know. Mr. Zha Chengda, but you are different, you are not only your uncle’s apprentice now, but you can also take care of grandma’s black mother, you can do both, grandma doesn’t believe it..."
I shook my head, "Grandma, I'm not yet an adult, I'm afraid those big fairies won't come and won't accept me..."
Grandma's voice unconsciously lost a lot of confidence, "I'm afraid of this too, but I can't help it, I can't go if the time comes, it's okay, grandma just waits desperately, when will they come, when will grandma Go, otherwise, grandma won't close her eyes even if she dies, for you, grandma will definitely understand it for you."
I think it's too difficult. The words of Mrs. Xu are still lingering in my ears. How old am I? I arranged it for Daxianer, who can convince me?
But looking at my grandma's current state, I dare not say it, for fear that she will follow me and get angry. The whole person is like being torn to pieces but I have to sew desperately. I want to escape, but I can't escape, and I can't. escape.
……
In the afternoon, our family sat at the table to eat, and grandma made repeated orders, and no one was allowed to cry in front of her. In her words, as long as she arranged for Mama Hei, her merits and virtues would be complete. She, Xue Fengnian's descendants, who It is also not allowed to squeeze the cat urine diaphragm in front of her to respond to her.
The dinner table was very quiet. Originally, after Xiaoliu bought back the trough cake, he imagined that I was making a fuss, but after being dragged out by the bright moon, there was no movement. Everyone just ate in a bored manner, facing the big fish and big meat, All of them were preoccupied and forced to swallow.
After taking a few bites, grandma put down the bowl and chopsticks, glanced around and said lightly, "I will let Sibao take over the house tonight. If she picks up smoothly, I can go comfortably. Remember , don't cry, don't cry, don't let your tears fall on me..."
"Mmmmm~~~"
That Mingyue held the bowl, hid her face behind her and let out a subdued cry as she hummed.
Grandma was displeased, "It's endless, right? I'm not dead! Hold back!!"
That Mingyue grinned, held her breath forcefully, and brought her entire neck into a deep sag.
Grandma sighed, "Listen to me, if everything goes well, then after finishing my work, Sibao will continue to go to school and take the exam. After the exam, I will follow Ruojun to the city to study in high school. As for whether to take the college entrance examination, then I will It doesn't matter, but she can't continue to nest in our countryside, she has to go to the city to be with her mother."
Mom was stunned, "Mom, tell me, let Baosi go to my place? My place...isn't very convenient."
The second uncle was even more surprised, "Mom, can this work? Sibao grew up with us, and when she goes to the city, she doesn't know her place well..."
"Isn't there a process from unfamiliarity to familiarity everywhere!"
The grandma interrupted the second uncle coldly, "Since I am angry now, then I am the head of the family, you just listen to my arrangement, why do you let Sibao stay here? Isn't she going to the county town when she goes to high school?" , then it’s better to go to a big city, if Jun is Sibao’s mother, where will she go if she doesn’t go to her own mother!”
"I disagree!"
The second uncle glanced at his mother and said directly, "If you have already said that it is inconvenient, Sibao should go to high school in the county. I can still visit her every now and then. It is also convenient to go back to the village from the county. Bincheng is too far away." Already!!"
I have never said a word, and my grandma told me clearly about my arrangement as early as a year ago when she was still in good spirits. All the arrangements, grandma has explained to me one after another. After all, there are many things, not She said that she could remember it in a day, so whenever grandma remembered something, she would tell me something. This kind of preparation, I have been doing all the time, but it is only on this day that I know how broken it will be.
Although I didn't want to go to my mother's after hearing what my grandma said, because I didn't want to be too far away from my second uncle, but after thinking about it, my grandma's arrangement was right. For my second uncle, he paid too much for this niece. up.
If grandma is gone, then he will be under a lot of pressure. The family has been empty all these years. Once grandma leaves, the burden of this family, grandpa, me and Xiaoliu will all be on his shoulders, so , if I go to the city to study high school, no matter what, I will lighten the burden on my second uncle, oh, although it is cruel, it is reality.
"Mom, it's really not suitable for Baosi to go there now, I..."
I looked up at my mother. To be honest, I wanted to understand her. I thought she had a hard time when she sold the house. However, she still felt uncomfortable. Grandma hasn’t left yet. It has become a burden to everyone.
"Ruojun!"
Grandma didn't give her any chance to explain, but just looked at her blankly, "I know you have difficulties, you spent a lot of money when I saw a doctor, but Sibao is old, she is your lucky star, it is impossible She has been staying in the countryside, and the most important thing is that she is not yet full, as long as she calls you mom, you have to take care of her, understand!"
Mom opened her mouth and nodded with an ugly look after glancing at me, "I understand, I'm just afraid that Baosi and I will suffer."
"I'm not afraid of suffering."
I replied lightly, "Even if I go to the city, I won't cause you any trouble."
"Bao Si, you..."
"Four Treasures..."
The mother and the second uncle opened their mouths at the same time and wanted to say something, but the grandma turned her eyes away and both shut up, "Why are there so many nonsense, how can I arrange it, how can you do it, I don't have time to talk to you now Reasonable, as for Xiao Liu..."
"Grandma, I want to be with Fourth Sister."
Grandma looked at him and nodded, "Of course, but not now, your fourth sister and you haven't really grown up, and it's impossible to go to school together, but you have to remember, you are born with a disfigured appearance, although your fourth sister Fate is hard, but if you can't beat you, not only can't beat you, on the contrary, with her around, it will make your lack of hits better and make you more smooth.
If your fourth sister takes up the road of husband in the future, all you have to do is to help her more. Although you are not real siblings, you grew up together and have a deep friendship. No matter when, you must absolutely believe The other party, you will be the closest person to your fourth sister, so your task is to protect and take good care of her, and never allow others to hurt her at any time, can you do it. "
Xiao Liu nodded without thinking, "Yes, I can do it, grandma, I am the man of the family, not only my fourth sister, I can take care of and protect everyone."
That Mingyue was so moved, she kept touching her tears: "Unexpectedly, the bear egg buns have grown up too..."
Grandma smiled reassuringly, "I watched Liu'er grow up. Although he is naughty, he is definitely not a bear. He has a sense of justice at a very young age, and he knows how to respect Baosi. It's just that he is small. I can't beat these kids in the village, but I have a good personality, simple, no grudges, and vigor, and I, Xue Fengnian, got two good grandsons only because of my good deeds!"
As soon as she finished speaking, grandma shook her head with emotion, "It's a pity, family tree, I'm afraid I won't be able to see it... It's been five years, and you said that this child has no letter, I still remember him dimly Time to drive us away, send me some money to go to the city to see a doctor, good boy, my only regret is that I can't see him with my eyes closed."
I didn't dare to cry, I squeezed my chopsticks with my face down, only to hear that everyone's breathing was a little heavy, and everyone was desperately holding back, even if I had been preparing for this moment, so what, I was a little regretful, probably It can never be made up for!
"Forget it, people can't be perfect. If anyone in our family sees the family tree in the future, remember to tell him that grandma will always remember his good. If you see him doing badly, you must help him a lot, you know. "
The second uncle nodded, "Mom, don't worry, the family tree didn't say anything, I like this nephew too."
Grandma responded and continued, "If you can come back today, I will have a son and a daughter to see you off. From now on, you must take good care of your father. His leg, which is on the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, has to be used. Smoked with herbs, otherwise it will be swollen, well, the rest is fine, let me buy all the oil lamps you bought, and prepare everything for me, I want tonight Pass it on to the Four Treasures!"
……
I think that maybe other families may prepare for the funeral of the old man who is about to leave, but they will definitely not change into old clothes in the house like my grandma, talking and laughing by herself.
That's right, the scientific name for wearing old clothes is shroud.
She wears it by herself, layer by layer, and the board is completely worn on her body. In her words, if I connect it smoothly, she can go away comfortably.
In the afternoon, my second uncle has been busy in the yard, setting up tables and oil lamps, preparing to pick up the house for me. I didn't move, and I didn't cry with my mother and second aunt Xiaoliu. Instead, I squatted down In front of the window of my grandma's house, I want to be closer to her, even if I just hear her laughter, I feel at ease.
I'm actually quite afraid that my grandpa will be emotional, because now the house is like an explosion site full of gunpowder. If anyone gets excited, the room will burst into tears in an instant. My forehead is numb. I really don't want to cry. I don't want to make trouble anymore, I can't tell what it feels like, I feel in a trance, I feel that everything that happened is real, but also like a dream.
"Old man, do you think I look good? I didn't ask them to make me the old style, which looks like a cloak, which is scary. I like the new style, light blue, oh, just It’s the same color as Sibao’s desk, isn’t it.”
"Yes, you look good. You look good in anything you wear."
I bit my lip hard, listening to the smile in my grandpa's voice, my heart was clogged.
"Okay, I'll be outside at night, and I'll be relieved when the four treasures are picked up. Remember what I told you, don't always count on me, or I will have a hard time down there. You have treated me like this all your life. Alright, I will definitely look for you in my next life, let's have a pair of children in another lifetime!"
Grandpa smiled softly, "Okay, I'm the only one who can bear your violent temper, you have to wait for me."
"Okay! I'm not looking for anyone except you Ren Xuewu!!"
I frowned, who is Ren Xuewu!
"Fengnian, you..."
Grandma's voice settled down, "Old man, you really want to hide it from me for the rest of your life. Before I became a girl, I wanted to find a surname Xue, but your surname is not Xue. I know it. You went back to your village to change your surname for me. , but you are stupid, you think that if I don't go to your village for a few years, I can hide it from me for a lifetime. If your father doesn't tell you, your mother won't tell you, and your brother won't tell you, I won't know? What about the people in your village? The whole village can lie to you, second son Ren~ I will remember your kindness to me forever!"
Grandpa sneered in the room, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you, but I didn't trick it. I fell in love with you as soon as I walked through your village back then. I know you have a high spirit, and your family used to be a big family. Then I If you are rampant, you definitely can't do it, so, I, I didn't do anything, I have a big brother and a younger brother, it's not a big deal to change my surname, it's just that my leg has been served by you for almost 20 years, I'm sorry, if there is a next life , I still listen to you, what do you want to do, let's do it, I'm fine, as long as I can live happily with you..."
I couldn't listen anymore, so I got up and set up oil lamps with my second uncle. The second uncle looked at me and was stunned for a moment, "Sibao, why are you crying again?"
Wiping my tears, I looked at my second uncle and smiled, "I didn't cry, but I thought, if I can find a man who is as good to grandma as grandpa in my life, then my life will not be in vain."
The second uncle shook his head, "What are you talking about, where are you now..."
I don't think my second uncle knew about this, even I didn't expect that grandpa, an immigrant, changed his surname to be with grandma, and grandma knew about it, so she just kept it in her heart and tried her best to take care of grandpa on the kang. For 20 years, it was only when I was about to leave that I broke it down easily. This way of saying goodbye is really warm and heartwarming.
It’s like it was written in a novel I read in school, I always know how much you love me, so although I don’t say it, I will repay you with practical actions and let you know that I actually love you more than you I love you more.
……
into the night.
Even if I don't want to face it anymore, this moment is still here.
In the past, grandma only needed to put wine and meat sacrificial offerings on the table and light incense directly. Today is different, not only wine and meat, but also the statue of Hei Mama is enshrined on the table. The altar table is placed in the middle of the yard. There is also a Taishi chair next to it. Of course, I know that chair is for my grandma to sit on. On both sides of the altar table, fifteen oil lamps are placed in a straight line, and under each oil lamp there is a lamp. Zhang Sifang's little red papers were lined up in a row, almost reaching the gate, standing in the middle, especially like a group of small guards standing on the left and right.
I know what this means, that is, each oil lamp symbolizes a big fairy on the top of the mountain. Grandma said that it is not necessary to use so many. Now there are very few people with great skills. The son knew that she was going to pass on the throne, and as long as thirty representatives were sent, it would be considered.
Of course, the main thing is to look at the oil lamp. When Da Xianer arrives, the oil lamp will light up automatically. It sounds amazing, but I don’t know if this thing can light up, and I don’t have a clue.
At about ten o'clock in the evening, my grandma let my second uncle and the others enter the back room, and in the yard, except for some things that I needed to pick up, there were only the three of us, my grandma and Xiaoliu.
I don't understand why grandma doesn't let Xiao Liu into the house, and I don't know if it's because Xiao Liu said that he will mess with me in the future, but grandma didn't say what to do with him, so he let him stand at the gate In the inner position, you have to stay like a goalkeeper, you don’t have to worry about what you say, just stay there.
When the time was almost up, grandma wore the new old clothes and began to burn incense for Mama Hei. I stood quietly and watched. To be honest, the quietness in the yard was a bit weird, just listening to grandma’s voice Said in a slow and unhurried manner——
"Since the day Fengnian led the hall, he has listened to Madam Hei's teachings and devoted himself to building a hall for the immortal family. Zehui dare not slack off. Now that his merits and virtues have been completed, Fengnian knows that he is about to go west. My granddaughter will take over the hall. Inheritance, although she is not yet old and the timing is not yet good, but Fengnian is in poor health and may not be able to support her. I hope Mama Hei will take pity on her. The bloodline of the family was raised by me alone, Fengnian believes that my grandson will definitely have the appearance of a great god, and he will be famous in all directions in the future, accumulating blessings and promoting goodness for the black mother!!"
After finishing speaking, grandma took out the small yellow flag and inserted it into a bowl full of five-color rice on the table, continued to recite the year, month and day, and then took out a piece of red paper, "Pen here. "
I hurriedly handed over a black fountain pen, saw my grandma raising her hand, and wrote my name under the red paper, my name was Xue Zhen, my nickname was Baosi, and my date of birth. After finishing writing, my grandma raised her hand As soon as it was burned, it was raised directly above the command flag, and it was said loudly: "Xue Jiabao of Baishan Village obeys orders!"
"Ah? Yes."
I was startled, and hurriedly replied, "I'm here."
"Some confidence! Xue Jiabao of Baishan Village obeys orders!"
"exist!!!"
This voice startled Xiao Liu at the door, and looked at me suspiciously while hugging the inner door pillar.
"If Mama Hei is handed over to you, will you be able to guarantee a righteous life, not make a fortune, benefit the gods of the mountains, protect my fairy family's name, and save the suffering!!"
"Well, can..."
Grandma's eyes widened, and I slid straight, "Yes!!"
"Why are you!!"
I swallowed, remembering what my grandma told me to recite before, and opened my mouth to recite loudly, "Three points of self-confidence in the heart, three points of domineering in front of the hall, three points of kindness as the root, throwing out the self to save suffering, Three people must have my teacher, there are people outside the world, who are arrogant and arrogant, and they are not perfect. Hold your head three feet to learn from the gods, and protect the fate of the gods with your body and mind! ! ! "
Grandma nodded and clapped her hands. The second uncle hurriedly came out with a brazier that was burning charcoal and put it in the middle of the oil lamp head.
My grandma told me about this process, so when I saw the brazier, I understood what it meant and quickly walked around behind the oil lamp, and then stood in the middle and waited for my grandma to give orders.
"Fourth sister, what are you talking about? It's a suit, so domineering."
Xiaoliu was still holding the inner side doorpost and saw me take my place near him, so he hurriedly shared his experience.
I didn't have the mood to worry about him, so I just heard my grandma yell, "The new master is in place, cross!!"
Taking a deep breath, I lifted my foot and walked towards the brazier. After stepping over, I heard my grandma continue to shout, "Step on Yin and Yang with one foot, and walk on two roads from now on. Seeing that you need to avoid three points when you are sneaky and evil, you will live a righteous life forever. Lead by example, follow two roads to peace!!"
I walked all the way to my grandma, and saw that she took out a washbasin from the bottom of the altar table, and there was only half a basin of water in it. After I knelt down, I used a wicker dipped in water to gently pat behind me, " Sweep away your bad luck and only leave a rectification of your name to ensure that everything goes smoothly in your church and the evil spirits dare not come near!!"
At that time, I didn't think much about it at all. I thought it was a procedure, just like when a newlywed pays homage to heaven and earth for the second time, the master of ceremonies will also shout that they will love each other for a hundred years and will never leave. Tangzi, you need to go through these procedures, but to put it bluntly, you still need skills. If you don’t have skills, the kid will bully you. It’s useless to cross the brazier a hundred times. Who will convince you!
The most important thing is to wait until the ritual of getting rid of bad luck is done. I need to offer incense as a new generation of master god. Only when Mama Hei approves me can I be qualified to be a master god. If he doesn’t recognize me , Then there is no need to light the oil lamp, and everything can stop here.
Why, the biggest difference between the leader god and the ordinary god is that all the fairies from outside are invited to come, but if they are not doing it, they have to borrow their breath, borrowing the anger of this black mother, because the black mother will definitely not come A leader who is so big, right? It means she wants to be my backer, so I can use this backer to invite people to do things for me. It's as simple as that.
But if she doesn't want to be my backer, then it's useless, who will do things for you, every big fairy with a reputation also has his own apprentice under his name, why should they come to you to help you , I'm full and free.
Taking a deep breath, I lifted the incense in my hand over my head, and opened my mouth to Mama Hei. This grandma never taught me, she just speaks from your heart, what you want to say, is it vernacular or what? It's all right, the important thing is sincerity.
"Grandma Hei, I have often seen you smiling at me since I was a child. I know, I was very naughty when I was young, and I couldn't listen to any reasoning, but after I became enlightened, I learned a lot of truths. I know that the leader is to house some great immortals , so that they can have a place to practice well, Daxian is just like people, some have good tempers, some have bad tempers, my task is to make them feel at ease, not do bad things, and be led home by disciples Set up a family in the house and benefit others, although I am still young, I also know that I am not qualified enough, but I will work hard, and I will not let my grandma and you down."
After finishing speaking, I put the incense into the incense burner and knelt down on the ground. I couldn’t get up, and just knelt like this. Wait, wait until the incense burns out. It is the most tense time.
Grandma shuffled and sat on the teacher's chair. She didn't speak all the time, but I could feel the tension in the atmosphere, and my heart was also raised. I think what I said was very sincere, let's not talk about how many great immortals I can give Tangkou, or whether I have the ability to stand up, but I will really try my best, because I really don't want my grandma to be disappointed, as long as I can, I will try my best.
Time passed by, and my knees also started to feel numb, thinking that the incense should be burning to the bottom, when I was grabbing my heart, I suddenly felt something lightly touch the top of my head, and then 'click' There was a soft sound, and I raised my eyes slightly, and the command flag fell in front of my eyes...
Before I could react, my grandma got up first, "The new leader, Xue Baosi, don't lead the flag and kneel down to thank Mama Hei!!!"
(End of this chapter)
"Fourth sister, what's the matter with you, look at how energetic Nai is today, you are not happy."
"You know what!!"
I was sitting on the ground, I couldn’t see anything clearly, my mind was full of bad premonitions, I would rather watch my grandma lying on the kang, and I would rather watch her play doperidine behind my back, but I don’t want to see the mental headache. Exuberant, she doesn't want to!
Perhaps it was because I shouted too loudly that my second uncle and aunt also came out of the house and came straight to me, "Baosi, listen to what my aunt told you..."
"No one needs to persuade her!!"
Grandma's attitude changed suddenly, and she just said in a voice, "Let her cry, make her make trouble! Isn't it possible to think of anything, then let her do it! Let's see what she wants to make a fuss in the end!"
"Mom, Baosi is also feeling uncomfortable..."
"What a pain! Didn't she tell me a year ago that she knew everything? You all come into the house and let her cry there. I'll leave when I cry enough!! Hurry up! , let me in!!"
I knelt on the ground and still raised my arms, grinning, shaking uncontrollably all over my body, I also want to be sensible, but grandma's words don't count, didn't she say wait for me to grow up, didn't she say wait for me...
'boom'!There was a sound of closing the door, and besides me crying, only Xiaoliu and King Kong were silently watching me in the yard.
I don't know how long it took, but Xiao Liu felt that my emotions could recover a bit, so he said lazily, "Fourth sister, I should be happy today, look, your mother is back, she..."
"Grandma is leaving."
"what?"
I looked at him like a fool with red and swollen eyeballs, "Grandma is leaving."
The half apple in Xiao Liu's hand fell to the ground with a 'grunt', and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Are you kidding me, does grandma seem to be leaving like this? Since she was diagnosed with illness in the city last year, the most energetic person is Today."
I took a deep breath to calm my mind, and watched him continue to open his mouth, "Do you still remember my grandma, she was ill for a long time, and then suddenly became very energetic, and then..."
Xiao Liu shook his head, staggered and sat on the ground opposite me, "Don't scare me, I can't, grandma said before, she will wait for you to arrive, you haven't reached eighteen yet, grandma can't count , You... No, I'll ask grandma, I'll ask her to be clearer!"
After finishing speaking, he staggered up and ran towards the back room. After entering the door, he didn't know who said what to him, but he yelled in the room with his hoarse voice, "I don't Promise! You will lie! Grandma is fine! Grandma will be fine!!"
The door opened again, and Xiao Liu ran out and took my arm, "Fourth Sister! You go into the house and tell grandma, you said grandma should wait for you to turn eighteen, there is still one year left! One year!"
One year...
I looked at Xiao Liuliu's anxious and anxious face, and suddenly realized that we were all lying to ourselves. Even if I am eighteen now, can I send my grandma away as if nothing happened?
No, never, even next year, I will have a new excuse, but the only thing I can do now is to procrastinate, at least, one more day of procrastination, I can look at her more every day, live , can still talk, instead of waiting to sleep, occasionally, occasionally dreaming, untouchable.
I took Xiao Liu off my arm and pulled my hand, I slowly got up, "You ride my car and go to town."
Xiao Liu didn't seem to react, "What are you doing, you go into the house, go into the house to find grandma..."
"Buy trough cakes..."
I interrupted Xiao Liu and only expressed what I wanted to say, "Grandpa and grandma want something to eat, go and buy it..."
Xiao Liu was stunned, "Fourth sister, what kind of cakes are you buying at this time, hurry up..."
"Go!!"
I glared at him, "Didn't you listen to me, then go quickly, don't talk nonsense!!!"
Xiao Liu wiped away the tears viciously, gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay, I'll go! I'll go!!!"
As he said that, he picked up the bicycle that fell on the ground and walked towards the gate. When he got to the gate, he looked back at me, "Fourth sister, I want to tell you that I am one year younger than you, but I am a man." , no matter what happens, I can bear it with you!!"
I didn't answer, and stood there, looking back at Xiaoliu's face lightly all over my body. This feeling was probably the same as when I saw Sister Chaoyang, "I don't want to face it, but if I escape, I will regret it for life." Yes, you go, that's what grandma and grandpa want to eat, I'll wait for you to come back..."
Xiao Liu didn't talk anymore, he just got on my bicycle and rode away quickly.
Looking up, the spring breeze in May blows the catkins floating around in the yard. I really hate this kind of white fluffy objects. They seem to float directly into my throat with the wind, and they are stuck in my heart. Can't make me breathe.
Looking at the door of my house not far or near, I know what my grandma will talk to me after I go in, but I don’t want to hear it. It’s too tiring and depressing to pretend to be strong in my heart, and I don’t want to bear some things , if possible, I would rather become the me before the age of eight, like a fool, at least I am carefree every day.
The second uncle opened the door with complicated eyes, and his voice was chaotic and hoarse, "Sibao, your grandma is still waiting for you inside..."
I really wanted to shout, to go crazy, but I didn't have the strength just now. I walked to the door in a trance, and when I lifted my foot to go in, my second uncle pulled my arm, "Sibao, you are your grandma!" The biggest hope is not to let your grandma worry about you, you know."
I didn't speak, I didn't know what to say, my mind was empty, and there was nothing left.
The mother and the second aunt were both standing in the outer room. They supported each other and covered their mouths and sobbed softly. Their hearts were twitching. This kind of atmosphere, I think, anyone who faces it will go crazy...
"Don't cry, mom is fine, why are you crying?"
The second uncle scolded in a suppressed voice, "Don't forget, Mom hates others crying in front of her, it's bad luck."
I gritted my teeth hard, my cheeks were tense, and I opened the door of the room where I slept. When I raised my eyes, I saw my grandma sitting upright on the edge of the kang, looking at me, her whole face was so serious that she couldn't see it at all. Sad sentiment, "Shut the door."
I didn't need to move, but the second uncle outside the door heard a voice and slammed the door tightly, as if they all knew that this time was requested by my grandma, and I had to give it to me alone.
"Are you still crying?"
I stood opposite grandma with my head down, no nodding, no shaking my head, and no desire to speak.
There was no emotion in grandma's voice, she just opened her mouth with a trace of indifference, "What did you say when you helped me order a birthday party with Li Jianguo last year?"
"I've grown up, leave it to me, I'm not that fragile..."
The voice was a little hoarse, probably from shouting just now.
Grandma nodded, "What about you now, do I dare to hand over everything to you now? I'm leaving, and the Xue family will depend on you for the rest of my life. You know, you are the most like grandma. I know why Well, because your grandma and I don't want to be bullied, we have to be good people, but we can't be fooled by others, even though you are young, but you have some things that are clearer than your second uncle, so grandma don't worry, don't worry about everything I leave it all to you, but what were you doing just now, why, have you forgotten what you said?"
"You forgot..."
My neck seems to be strangled by a noose, and I can only breathe hard, "You said, you have to wait until I am an adult, otherwise you don't worry, so why..."
"I want to wait for you too, but my body doesn't wait for others!"
Grandma interrupted me with a long sigh, "Come here, come here!"
My lips kept trembling, and when I walked up to grandma, she grabbed my hand and put it directly on her fluffy and shiny hair, with a little force, I pressed my hand onto her scalp , "Sibao, what do you think grandma is waiting for... What are you waiting for..."
The palms can touch large and small bumps without any effort, one by one, hidden under the hair like beads, what's more, some beads fall together to grow——
Breaking down again, I watched my grandma keep shaking her head, "It will be fine, it will be fine..."
Grandma's eyes are also red, but her expression is still determined, "Grandma has grown horns, four treasures, grandma is cancer, if this goes on, grandma will leave, this body can't see people, grandma For the rest of my life, I don't want to be short of anyone wherever I go, even if I go, I want to be decent!"
I suppressed my crying, "Go to the hospital, go to the hospital for chemotherapy, it will kill, it will kill..."
Grandma shook her head gently, "Do you want grandma to continue to suffer? That's too much suffering. Five years ago, when grandma had surgery in Bincheng, those crimes were more severe than when I criticized them. But grandma could suffer at that time." Forbearance, grandma wants to live, wants to watch Sibao grow up, at least go downstairs, see you are too grandma, she asked me about you, I also have something to talk about, but now grandma can't stand it anymore, really Can't stop..."
Then, grandma lowered her voice and looked at me seriously, "Last night, your grandma came to see me. She stood by my kang and said to me, Fengnian, don't make trouble anymore, get down early , you don’t have to suffer all this——
Grandma really misses you grandma, I wanted to walk with her last night, but your grandma said, no, you haven't finished your business yet, you have to get everything done, you can't let Sibao is blind, we have discussed it, and when grandma understands it for you, grandma will go to her and reunite with her. If grandma has a lot of money, I want to talk to her. If your grandma knows that she is leaving you Crying, you must show off to me, saying that you still have a good relationship with her, right? "
I shook my head, speechless, tears flowed to my mouth, it was so salty, "No... not good..."
Grandma let out a sigh of relief and reached out to hug me, "Grandma has done a lot of things in this life, some things are right, some things are wrong, but there are still some things, I don't know if they are right or wrong, but no matter How to say, those things that grandma did wrong, should be repaid. Don’t think that grandma died of this disease. This is actually very good. Think about it. It's all over, if you go down, you won't suffer..."
"Grandma... I beg you, don't abandon me, you know I'll be smart, I'm not a husband yet, you have to watch me, watch me stop doing bad things..."
Grandma patted me on the back lightly, her voice was suppressed with a hint of reluctance, "Grandma really wanted to, but I can't, stop talking childish things, grandma knows that Sibao can handle grandma's funeral affairs very well." It’s so beautiful, my grandma’s life, until now, I’ve realized that what my elder brother said is true, just let nature take its course, why should I be obsessed with something.
Oh, remember, you should listen to your uncle. I think the most successful thing I did was to send you to your uncle. But it’s up to you. Now I think of what your uncle said I still want to laugh about making you count the leaves, my family's four treasures, why are you so smart. "
I shook my head desperately, "I'm not smart, I'm stupid, I'm stupid, if you leave, the whole village will bully me, everyone will bully me..."
"I'm going to get angry if you say that again!"
Grandma let go of her hand, and looked at me with snot and tears in her face pretending to be displeased, "How can people in the village still say you, you have to remember, the blood of my Xue family is flowing in your bones, and you are the one who is most like me. Xue Fengnian, since you're like me, you can't admit defeat, and you can't look down on yourself before others say anything, otherwise, the more you live, the more you sink in!"
I took the paper from my grandma and wiped my face vigorously, "As long as you live well, I will definitely be strong and brave..."
"Hiss! You child! I told you all the words for nothing, right?"
Grandma was anxious, "Do you still remember what you were like when you were a child!"
I shook my head, "I don't remember..."
"When you were young, no matter how big things happened, you knew how to eat when you were hungry, and you knew how to sleep when you were sleepy. Everyone has this day, and the ancestors have passed it down from generation to generation! Let me tell you, if you dare to leave me so devastated, I won’t be able to rest in peace even if I die!!”
Grandma gasped in anger, "I also want to wait, at least until you finish the high school entrance examination, but I can't wait with my broken body. Grandma just has one idea now, whether you can accept it or not, you have to accept it for me. You should eat, you should drink, you should study, if your grandma dares to seek death after grandma leaves, she will slap you in your dreams! Do you hear me!"
I pursed my lips and pursed my lips hard, but I still didn't want to nod.
"Dumb! If you're not dumb, tell me what I told you before! Hurry up!!"
Sniffing, I muttered and opened my mouth, "I'm Xue Baosi, the next leader of the Xue family. No matter what happens, I must take care of myself and not worry my family. At the same time, I must Take good care of my younger brother. In the future, if he is willing, let him stay by my side, seek the right way, and serve the common people. Don't deceive yourself, no matter how big it is, you have to eat and sleep. Only by living well can you solve the problem, otherwise, you will be looked down upon..."
When it came to the end, I really couldn't go on, my grandma kept urging with a cold face, "There is more!"
"Always... Be careful of that stele fairy at all times, don't be rash when things happen..."
Grandma nodded, "It's you I'm afraid of, you kid, I'm absolutely relieved when you're clear-headed, I'm afraid you'll let yourself in when you're hot-headed and ruthless, you must remember, no matter what you do, you must Thinking about the way out, if there is no way out, you can’t do it, you know!"
I sucked my nose hard, and my voice was almost squeezed out of my nose, "I know... I want to be kind with one thought and be compassionate in my heart, but, but, I'm afraid I can't do it!!!"
"If you can't do it, you have to do it for me!!"
Grandma is sharp-eyed, "I know why grandma can only be a leader in this life, it's because there are too many things that I can't understand! I'm too impatient. When I was young, I also studied Buddhism, but I can't understand it. It’s not good to catch up with the years, and I didn’t understand anything later, but you are different. You have caught up with the good years and become a master. You can’t be like grandma. You can’t be impatient. You know, grandma is not a big man, and I don’t know. Mr. Zha Chengda, but you are different, you are not only your uncle’s apprentice now, but you can also take care of grandma’s black mother, you can do both, grandma doesn’t believe it..."
I shook my head, "Grandma, I'm not yet an adult, I'm afraid those big fairies won't come and won't accept me..."
Grandma's voice unconsciously lost a lot of confidence, "I'm afraid of this too, but I can't help it, I can't go if the time comes, it's okay, grandma just waits desperately, when will they come, when will grandma Go, otherwise, grandma won't close her eyes even if she dies, for you, grandma will definitely understand it for you."
I think it's too difficult. The words of Mrs. Xu are still lingering in my ears. How old am I? I arranged it for Daxianer, who can convince me?
But looking at my grandma's current state, I dare not say it, for fear that she will follow me and get angry. The whole person is like being torn to pieces but I have to sew desperately. I want to escape, but I can't escape, and I can't. escape.
……
In the afternoon, our family sat at the table to eat, and grandma made repeated orders, and no one was allowed to cry in front of her. In her words, as long as she arranged for Mama Hei, her merits and virtues would be complete. She, Xue Fengnian's descendants, who It is also not allowed to squeeze the cat urine diaphragm in front of her to respond to her.
The dinner table was very quiet. Originally, after Xiaoliu bought back the trough cake, he imagined that I was making a fuss, but after being dragged out by the bright moon, there was no movement. Everyone just ate in a bored manner, facing the big fish and big meat, All of them were preoccupied and forced to swallow.
After taking a few bites, grandma put down the bowl and chopsticks, glanced around and said lightly, "I will let Sibao take over the house tonight. If she picks up smoothly, I can go comfortably. Remember , don't cry, don't cry, don't let your tears fall on me..."
"Mmmmm~~~"
That Mingyue held the bowl, hid her face behind her and let out a subdued cry as she hummed.
Grandma was displeased, "It's endless, right? I'm not dead! Hold back!!"
That Mingyue grinned, held her breath forcefully, and brought her entire neck into a deep sag.
Grandma sighed, "Listen to me, if everything goes well, then after finishing my work, Sibao will continue to go to school and take the exam. After the exam, I will follow Ruojun to the city to study in high school. As for whether to take the college entrance examination, then I will It doesn't matter, but she can't continue to nest in our countryside, she has to go to the city to be with her mother."
Mom was stunned, "Mom, tell me, let Baosi go to my place? My place...isn't very convenient."
The second uncle was even more surprised, "Mom, can this work? Sibao grew up with us, and when she goes to the city, she doesn't know her place well..."
"Isn't there a process from unfamiliarity to familiarity everywhere!"
The grandma interrupted the second uncle coldly, "Since I am angry now, then I am the head of the family, you just listen to my arrangement, why do you let Sibao stay here? Isn't she going to the county town when she goes to high school?" , then it’s better to go to a big city, if Jun is Sibao’s mother, where will she go if she doesn’t go to her own mother!”
"I disagree!"
The second uncle glanced at his mother and said directly, "If you have already said that it is inconvenient, Sibao should go to high school in the county. I can still visit her every now and then. It is also convenient to go back to the village from the county. Bincheng is too far away." Already!!"
I have never said a word, and my grandma told me clearly about my arrangement as early as a year ago when she was still in good spirits. All the arrangements, grandma has explained to me one after another. After all, there are many things, not She said that she could remember it in a day, so whenever grandma remembered something, she would tell me something. This kind of preparation, I have been doing all the time, but it is only on this day that I know how broken it will be.
Although I didn't want to go to my mother's after hearing what my grandma said, because I didn't want to be too far away from my second uncle, but after thinking about it, my grandma's arrangement was right. For my second uncle, he paid too much for this niece. up.
If grandma is gone, then he will be under a lot of pressure. The family has been empty all these years. Once grandma leaves, the burden of this family, grandpa, me and Xiaoliu will all be on his shoulders, so , if I go to the city to study high school, no matter what, I will lighten the burden on my second uncle, oh, although it is cruel, it is reality.
"Mom, it's really not suitable for Baosi to go there now, I..."
I looked up at my mother. To be honest, I wanted to understand her. I thought she had a hard time when she sold the house. However, she still felt uncomfortable. Grandma hasn’t left yet. It has become a burden to everyone.
"Ruojun!"
Grandma didn't give her any chance to explain, but just looked at her blankly, "I know you have difficulties, you spent a lot of money when I saw a doctor, but Sibao is old, she is your lucky star, it is impossible She has been staying in the countryside, and the most important thing is that she is not yet full, as long as she calls you mom, you have to take care of her, understand!"
Mom opened her mouth and nodded with an ugly look after glancing at me, "I understand, I'm just afraid that Baosi and I will suffer."
"I'm not afraid of suffering."
I replied lightly, "Even if I go to the city, I won't cause you any trouble."
"Bao Si, you..."
"Four Treasures..."
The mother and the second uncle opened their mouths at the same time and wanted to say something, but the grandma turned her eyes away and both shut up, "Why are there so many nonsense, how can I arrange it, how can you do it, I don't have time to talk to you now Reasonable, as for Xiao Liu..."
"Grandma, I want to be with Fourth Sister."
Grandma looked at him and nodded, "Of course, but not now, your fourth sister and you haven't really grown up, and it's impossible to go to school together, but you have to remember, you are born with a disfigured appearance, although your fourth sister Fate is hard, but if you can't beat you, not only can't beat you, on the contrary, with her around, it will make your lack of hits better and make you more smooth.
If your fourth sister takes up the road of husband in the future, all you have to do is to help her more. Although you are not real siblings, you grew up together and have a deep friendship. No matter when, you must absolutely believe The other party, you will be the closest person to your fourth sister, so your task is to protect and take good care of her, and never allow others to hurt her at any time, can you do it. "
Xiao Liu nodded without thinking, "Yes, I can do it, grandma, I am the man of the family, not only my fourth sister, I can take care of and protect everyone."
That Mingyue was so moved, she kept touching her tears: "Unexpectedly, the bear egg buns have grown up too..."
Grandma smiled reassuringly, "I watched Liu'er grow up. Although he is naughty, he is definitely not a bear. He has a sense of justice at a very young age, and he knows how to respect Baosi. It's just that he is small. I can't beat these kids in the village, but I have a good personality, simple, no grudges, and vigor, and I, Xue Fengnian, got two good grandsons only because of my good deeds!"
As soon as she finished speaking, grandma shook her head with emotion, "It's a pity, family tree, I'm afraid I won't be able to see it... It's been five years, and you said that this child has no letter, I still remember him dimly Time to drive us away, send me some money to go to the city to see a doctor, good boy, my only regret is that I can't see him with my eyes closed."
I didn't dare to cry, I squeezed my chopsticks with my face down, only to hear that everyone's breathing was a little heavy, and everyone was desperately holding back, even if I had been preparing for this moment, so what, I was a little regretful, probably It can never be made up for!
"Forget it, people can't be perfect. If anyone in our family sees the family tree in the future, remember to tell him that grandma will always remember his good. If you see him doing badly, you must help him a lot, you know. "
The second uncle nodded, "Mom, don't worry, the family tree didn't say anything, I like this nephew too."
Grandma responded and continued, "If you can come back today, I will have a son and a daughter to see you off. From now on, you must take good care of your father. His leg, which is on the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, has to be used. Smoked with herbs, otherwise it will be swollen, well, the rest is fine, let me buy all the oil lamps you bought, and prepare everything for me, I want tonight Pass it on to the Four Treasures!"
……
I think that maybe other families may prepare for the funeral of the old man who is about to leave, but they will definitely not change into old clothes in the house like my grandma, talking and laughing by herself.
That's right, the scientific name for wearing old clothes is shroud.
She wears it by herself, layer by layer, and the board is completely worn on her body. In her words, if I connect it smoothly, she can go away comfortably.
In the afternoon, my second uncle has been busy in the yard, setting up tables and oil lamps, preparing to pick up the house for me. I didn't move, and I didn't cry with my mother and second aunt Xiaoliu. Instead, I squatted down In front of the window of my grandma's house, I want to be closer to her, even if I just hear her laughter, I feel at ease.
I'm actually quite afraid that my grandpa will be emotional, because now the house is like an explosion site full of gunpowder. If anyone gets excited, the room will burst into tears in an instant. My forehead is numb. I really don't want to cry. I don't want to make trouble anymore, I can't tell what it feels like, I feel in a trance, I feel that everything that happened is real, but also like a dream.
"Old man, do you think I look good? I didn't ask them to make me the old style, which looks like a cloak, which is scary. I like the new style, light blue, oh, just It’s the same color as Sibao’s desk, isn’t it.”
"Yes, you look good. You look good in anything you wear."
I bit my lip hard, listening to the smile in my grandpa's voice, my heart was clogged.
"Okay, I'll be outside at night, and I'll be relieved when the four treasures are picked up. Remember what I told you, don't always count on me, or I will have a hard time down there. You have treated me like this all your life. Alright, I will definitely look for you in my next life, let's have a pair of children in another lifetime!"
Grandpa smiled softly, "Okay, I'm the only one who can bear your violent temper, you have to wait for me."
"Okay! I'm not looking for anyone except you Ren Xuewu!!"
I frowned, who is Ren Xuewu!
"Fengnian, you..."
Grandma's voice settled down, "Old man, you really want to hide it from me for the rest of your life. Before I became a girl, I wanted to find a surname Xue, but your surname is not Xue. I know it. You went back to your village to change your surname for me. , but you are stupid, you think that if I don't go to your village for a few years, I can hide it from me for a lifetime. If your father doesn't tell you, your mother won't tell you, and your brother won't tell you, I won't know? What about the people in your village? The whole village can lie to you, second son Ren~ I will remember your kindness to me forever!"
Grandpa sneered in the room, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you, but I didn't trick it. I fell in love with you as soon as I walked through your village back then. I know you have a high spirit, and your family used to be a big family. Then I If you are rampant, you definitely can't do it, so, I, I didn't do anything, I have a big brother and a younger brother, it's not a big deal to change my surname, it's just that my leg has been served by you for almost 20 years, I'm sorry, if there is a next life , I still listen to you, what do you want to do, let's do it, I'm fine, as long as I can live happily with you..."
I couldn't listen anymore, so I got up and set up oil lamps with my second uncle. The second uncle looked at me and was stunned for a moment, "Sibao, why are you crying again?"
Wiping my tears, I looked at my second uncle and smiled, "I didn't cry, but I thought, if I can find a man who is as good to grandma as grandpa in my life, then my life will not be in vain."
The second uncle shook his head, "What are you talking about, where are you now..."
I don't think my second uncle knew about this, even I didn't expect that grandpa, an immigrant, changed his surname to be with grandma, and grandma knew about it, so she just kept it in her heart and tried her best to take care of grandpa on the kang. For 20 years, it was only when I was about to leave that I broke it down easily. This way of saying goodbye is really warm and heartwarming.
It’s like it was written in a novel I read in school, I always know how much you love me, so although I don’t say it, I will repay you with practical actions and let you know that I actually love you more than you I love you more.
……
into the night.
Even if I don't want to face it anymore, this moment is still here.
In the past, grandma only needed to put wine and meat sacrificial offerings on the table and light incense directly. Today is different, not only wine and meat, but also the statue of Hei Mama is enshrined on the table. The altar table is placed in the middle of the yard. There is also a Taishi chair next to it. Of course, I know that chair is for my grandma to sit on. On both sides of the altar table, fifteen oil lamps are placed in a straight line, and under each oil lamp there is a lamp. Zhang Sifang's little red papers were lined up in a row, almost reaching the gate, standing in the middle, especially like a group of small guards standing on the left and right.
I know what this means, that is, each oil lamp symbolizes a big fairy on the top of the mountain. Grandma said that it is not necessary to use so many. Now there are very few people with great skills. The son knew that she was going to pass on the throne, and as long as thirty representatives were sent, it would be considered.
Of course, the main thing is to look at the oil lamp. When Da Xianer arrives, the oil lamp will light up automatically. It sounds amazing, but I don’t know if this thing can light up, and I don’t have a clue.
At about ten o'clock in the evening, my grandma let my second uncle and the others enter the back room, and in the yard, except for some things that I needed to pick up, there were only the three of us, my grandma and Xiaoliu.
I don't understand why grandma doesn't let Xiao Liu into the house, and I don't know if it's because Xiao Liu said that he will mess with me in the future, but grandma didn't say what to do with him, so he let him stand at the gate In the inner position, you have to stay like a goalkeeper, you don’t have to worry about what you say, just stay there.
When the time was almost up, grandma wore the new old clothes and began to burn incense for Mama Hei. I stood quietly and watched. To be honest, the quietness in the yard was a bit weird, just listening to grandma’s voice Said in a slow and unhurried manner——
"Since the day Fengnian led the hall, he has listened to Madam Hei's teachings and devoted himself to building a hall for the immortal family. Zehui dare not slack off. Now that his merits and virtues have been completed, Fengnian knows that he is about to go west. My granddaughter will take over the hall. Inheritance, although she is not yet old and the timing is not yet good, but Fengnian is in poor health and may not be able to support her. I hope Mama Hei will take pity on her. The bloodline of the family was raised by me alone, Fengnian believes that my grandson will definitely have the appearance of a great god, and he will be famous in all directions in the future, accumulating blessings and promoting goodness for the black mother!!"
After finishing speaking, grandma took out the small yellow flag and inserted it into a bowl full of five-color rice on the table, continued to recite the year, month and day, and then took out a piece of red paper, "Pen here. "
I hurriedly handed over a black fountain pen, saw my grandma raising her hand, and wrote my name under the red paper, my name was Xue Zhen, my nickname was Baosi, and my date of birth. After finishing writing, my grandma raised her hand As soon as it was burned, it was raised directly above the command flag, and it was said loudly: "Xue Jiabao of Baishan Village obeys orders!"
"Ah? Yes."
I was startled, and hurriedly replied, "I'm here."
"Some confidence! Xue Jiabao of Baishan Village obeys orders!"
"exist!!!"
This voice startled Xiao Liu at the door, and looked at me suspiciously while hugging the inner door pillar.
"If Mama Hei is handed over to you, will you be able to guarantee a righteous life, not make a fortune, benefit the gods of the mountains, protect my fairy family's name, and save the suffering!!"
"Well, can..."
Grandma's eyes widened, and I slid straight, "Yes!!"
"Why are you!!"
I swallowed, remembering what my grandma told me to recite before, and opened my mouth to recite loudly, "Three points of self-confidence in the heart, three points of domineering in front of the hall, three points of kindness as the root, throwing out the self to save suffering, Three people must have my teacher, there are people outside the world, who are arrogant and arrogant, and they are not perfect. Hold your head three feet to learn from the gods, and protect the fate of the gods with your body and mind! ! ! "
Grandma nodded and clapped her hands. The second uncle hurriedly came out with a brazier that was burning charcoal and put it in the middle of the oil lamp head.
My grandma told me about this process, so when I saw the brazier, I understood what it meant and quickly walked around behind the oil lamp, and then stood in the middle and waited for my grandma to give orders.
"Fourth sister, what are you talking about? It's a suit, so domineering."
Xiaoliu was still holding the inner side doorpost and saw me take my place near him, so he hurriedly shared his experience.
I didn't have the mood to worry about him, so I just heard my grandma yell, "The new master is in place, cross!!"
Taking a deep breath, I lifted my foot and walked towards the brazier. After stepping over, I heard my grandma continue to shout, "Step on Yin and Yang with one foot, and walk on two roads from now on. Seeing that you need to avoid three points when you are sneaky and evil, you will live a righteous life forever. Lead by example, follow two roads to peace!!"
I walked all the way to my grandma, and saw that she took out a washbasin from the bottom of the altar table, and there was only half a basin of water in it. After I knelt down, I used a wicker dipped in water to gently pat behind me, " Sweep away your bad luck and only leave a rectification of your name to ensure that everything goes smoothly in your church and the evil spirits dare not come near!!"
At that time, I didn't think much about it at all. I thought it was a procedure, just like when a newlywed pays homage to heaven and earth for the second time, the master of ceremonies will also shout that they will love each other for a hundred years and will never leave. Tangzi, you need to go through these procedures, but to put it bluntly, you still need skills. If you don’t have skills, the kid will bully you. It’s useless to cross the brazier a hundred times. Who will convince you!
The most important thing is to wait until the ritual of getting rid of bad luck is done. I need to offer incense as a new generation of master god. Only when Mama Hei approves me can I be qualified to be a master god. If he doesn’t recognize me , Then there is no need to light the oil lamp, and everything can stop here.
Why, the biggest difference between the leader god and the ordinary god is that all the fairies from outside are invited to come, but if they are not doing it, they have to borrow their breath, borrowing the anger of this black mother, because the black mother will definitely not come A leader who is so big, right? It means she wants to be my backer, so I can use this backer to invite people to do things for me. It's as simple as that.
But if she doesn't want to be my backer, then it's useless, who will do things for you, every big fairy with a reputation also has his own apprentice under his name, why should they come to you to help you , I'm full and free.
Taking a deep breath, I lifted the incense in my hand over my head, and opened my mouth to Mama Hei. This grandma never taught me, she just speaks from your heart, what you want to say, is it vernacular or what? It's all right, the important thing is sincerity.
"Grandma Hei, I have often seen you smiling at me since I was a child. I know, I was very naughty when I was young, and I couldn't listen to any reasoning, but after I became enlightened, I learned a lot of truths. I know that the leader is to house some great immortals , so that they can have a place to practice well, Daxian is just like people, some have good tempers, some have bad tempers, my task is to make them feel at ease, not do bad things, and be led home by disciples Set up a family in the house and benefit others, although I am still young, I also know that I am not qualified enough, but I will work hard, and I will not let my grandma and you down."
After finishing speaking, I put the incense into the incense burner and knelt down on the ground. I couldn’t get up, and just knelt like this. Wait, wait until the incense burns out. It is the most tense time.
Grandma shuffled and sat on the teacher's chair. She didn't speak all the time, but I could feel the tension in the atmosphere, and my heart was also raised. I think what I said was very sincere, let's not talk about how many great immortals I can give Tangkou, or whether I have the ability to stand up, but I will really try my best, because I really don't want my grandma to be disappointed, as long as I can, I will try my best.
Time passed by, and my knees also started to feel numb, thinking that the incense should be burning to the bottom, when I was grabbing my heart, I suddenly felt something lightly touch the top of my head, and then 'click' There was a soft sound, and I raised my eyes slightly, and the command flag fell in front of my eyes...
Before I could react, my grandma got up first, "The new leader, Xue Baosi, don't lead the flag and kneel down to thank Mama Hei!!!"
