【007】 Good old friend
Zhong Kui wrapped the corn buns made by his father in soft paper and prepared to deliver them to his grandfather. He didn't know what happened, but he felt a little nervous today. Suddenly he thought of two friends coming. If something happened in the past, two friends would tell him.
Thinking about it, maybe it was because he hadn't been to my grandfather's house for a long time that he felt so uneasy! What he didn't expect was that this anxiety came from him. It was because he went to my grandfather's house and missed it in a dark way, but something big happened when the sky fell.
If a dead person dies in a hot day, he must be buried in peace. The Yan family said: It is better to choose a day than to meet the day. As long as Zhong Mingfa does it quickly, their Yan family can afford the wages and buried the Yan butcher on the same day. In this case, Zhong Mingfa cannot rest. He has to dig continuously and complete the tomb before dark.
Grandpa knew that Zhong Kui was coming, and was extremely happy. He took out the moldy steamed buns hidden under the pillow for the child to eat.
Zhong Kui couldn't say that the steamed buns could not be eaten anymore, so he deliberately chewed them and made a sound. The blind grandfather thought he was eating steamed buns, but the fresh corn steamed buns entered his grandfather's stomach.
Grandpa likes to be clean, and the area at home is not wide. Although he cannot see his eyes, he can touch it with his hands.
A man loves face and cannot change the fact that a man can never change in his life. Zhong Mingfa asked him countless times whether he needed help. The old man stubbornly rejected his apprentice's kindness. He was used to showing off his strength all his life and was unwilling to make people say that he was a useless waste, which induces others.
When Zhong Kui comes to his grandfather's house, he still has to help him pick it up first, and he can't say that he is cleaning up the house for his grandfather.
Grandpa knew that Zhong Kui was a child who couldn't stay idle, and only stories could make him quiet.
When Zhong Kui heard that his grandfather was about to tell a story, he quickly brought a wooden bench to sit beside his grandfather.
Before telling a story, grandpa had to ask some interesting things as usual.
It's nothing more than asking what makes Zhong Kui angry about his father, such as tearing off his portrait of his ancestors and wiping his butt.
Then Zhong Kui told his grandfather that he saw a mother-in-law who set up copper coins. After hearing this, his facial muscles kept trembling.
"What else did she say?"
"She said that it was a copper coin to measure misfortune and good fortune."
Grandpa was silent for a few seconds, and then slowly said: "Grandpa told you a love story today."
Zhong Kuito stared at his grandfather with a monograph, and the scenes of his grandfather's story appeared in his mind; a handsome young man and a beautiful girl were both in love freely. Unfortunately, the young man's family was too poor and he had no betrothal gifts to marry the girl.
Just when the girl turned fourteen, her family forced her to marry a rich man who was over thirty years older than her as a concubine. She said that she was a concubine, but she wanted her to give birth to a rich family. The rich wife and a few wives did not give birth to a man or a woman for the rich man, so when the rich man married this girl, she placed her hope of inheriting cigarettes on her.
A few days after the girl married a rich man, the elderly at home passed away, and she had to rush home to perform filial piety and die.
The young man saw a girl riding a donkey at the entrance of the village. The girl was eating chicken, duck, fish and meat at the rich house, wearing silk and satin. Her body became more and more plump. Her complexion looked as beautiful as the seven fairies she played in the movie. The young man was stunned.
The girl looked at the young man. Because he worked every day on the slopes of the fields, his muscles became stronger. He also grew taller, and his dark skin lacked a healthy luster.
The two looked at each other silently for a moment, and each walked in the direction they were going to.
Whenever the young man was depressed, he liked to go to a place, which was when he and she had been, a slope full of wild flowers. The slope was a quiet area far away from the village and few people disturbed it.
After seeing the girl at the entrance of the village, the young man had no intention of working, and walked aimlessly to the slope again.
When the young man arrived, he was stunned. Unexpectedly, the girl came one step ahead of him and rode a donkey.
The winds were like the behind-the-scenes of the slings of the flowers, scratching their faces and whispering softly in their ears, motivating them to slowly get closer.
The warm sunshine and the blue sky are their quilts, and the wild flowers are the beds they use together. There are no blessings and congratulations, no media's words. The two of them looked at each other for a moment and then they were entangled together wildly.
The girl was still a girl, and she had not become the legendary woman. This surprised the young man and was surprised, wasn’t the girl married a rich man? Why was her body still intact? What was happy was that the girl could still keep her body like jade in such a dangerous environment and give her the first time.
After finishing, the girl folded her clothes at a very fast speed. Without explaining anything to the young man, she rode a donkey and left in a hurry.
Half a year later, the young man learned from others that the girl was about to give birth. It was because she proudly raised her belly in the hostile eyes of many wives, which caused jealousy and hatred, and was revenged by her wives.
He almost had a miscarriage, but he was lucky in disguise. The rich man repaired all his wives, and then helped the girl to become his eldest wife. Not long after, he really gave birth to a man with a handheld man. He was happy that the rich man had a banquet for three days to pay the gifts to his relatives and friends.
What makes me sad is that when the child just turned one year old, the rich man died of a very poisonous poison in his body. It is impossible to verify how he got the poison. But soon after, the young man saw the girl again, but she was already a young woman, and she appeared in front of him with the child in her arms.
Needless to say, the two of them must go to the place full of wild flowers to find memories. When the young woman was happy, she told me about how she used a plan to let the rich repair the big house and other concubines.
The young man did not make a sound, but clenched his fist and slammed heavily on the ground.
"You killed him too?" The young man was silent for a long time, and asked with a sharp look at the young woman with a smile on her face.
The young woman's sweet face was Ning and said indifferently: "If he is not dead, how can you meet the child? The child is yours, this old thing is useless..."
The young man listened to the young woman's words and talked with bright eyes, as if she was talking about something insignificant and talking about what she did as a very interesting thing. The young man's face gradually became darker, and he suddenly felt a dizzy moment. In his mind, how kind and innocent she was before. Unexpectedly, in just a few years, she became a murderer who could not blink.
The young woman is no longer beautiful in the young man's mind. He looks at her like a stranger...
The young man reported the young woman, who was taken away and detained, and later said that she was working in prison. After that, she never heard any news about her again. In the era of chaos, no one knew where she was exiled. The only characteristic of the young man remembered her was that she knew a little bit of divination, that is, to establish copper coins to measure misfortunes and good fortune.
"Where is that child?" Zhong Kui asked impatiently.
Zhong Kui didn't see it. When the story ended, grandpa's sunken eyes rolled with turbid tears, and then it flowed down from the corners of his eyes and flowed to the ears.
"Child, adopted it for someone else."
