Chapter 5: She buried her own mother

When Old Lady Niu heard this, her heart suddenly shook, and she knew that something was wrong.
"Da Niu, come out quickly," Niu said to her grandson, and then with one hand she picked up the little the ground. The little child had a yellowish face and thin skin. There was almost no meat on her body, and her forehead was still green. It was red, and both eyes were crying and swollen with walnuts. This little poor, crying really hurts my heart.
"Hurry up and find your father, mother and second uncle in the field, the Shen family lady should be gone."
"Oh..." Daniel didn't ask much, and hurriedly ran to find his parents.
Lady Niu took her son and daughter-in-law directly, but when she saw the breathless woman inside, she knew that this person was really gone.
Niu also felt sorry for the unaccompanied mother and daughter. She put Shen Qingci down, and then touched her withered hair, "Mother-in-law will wash your mother. Don't be afraid to stay here."
Shen Qingci nodded, she did not move, but bent her knees and knelt there.
Lady Niu’s heart was hurting uncontrollably, and she did not dare to delay. She was afraid that she hadn’t died for a long time, and her body was still soft. First, she should be cleaned and sent on the road. Otherwise, if she can’t get into the dirt. Ann, don't want to become a lonely ghost in the future, unable to give birth, no matter what he was alive, this person will have to go clean if he is dead.
Mrs. Niu is a swift man. She directly asked her daughter-in-law to find a piece of clothing that she hadn’t worn. She doesn’t feel bad about the clothes now. The dead are so big that they will meet them, so she must give them away. Up
Seeing the people coming and going inside, Shen Qingci put his head on the ground, then kowtow to his mother.
Mother, go well.
A Ning saw her off.
Mother, A Ning is not afraid, A Ning has not been afraid all his life.
Mother, go well.
A Ning will protect her father, her elder brother, and her sister. Even if there is still no mother in this life, A Ning will also look at herself as a treasure.
Mother, go well.
A Ning will no longer be so stupid. In this life, A Ning must live well, live well, and be a good person.
Mother, go well...
She squatted her head again, chanting the Death Mantra sentence after sentence.
When Mrs. Niu came out, she hit Shen Qingci, who was kneeling on the ground and chanting the Death Mantra. Suddenly, how could she feel that the Buddha's light flashed across her body.
She couldn't help rubbing her eyes, and when she opened them, she found that there was nothing. She thought, she must have read it wrong, she looked back again and saw that people were already dressed, she sighed , In the end, she couldn't help herself, and was reluctant to let such a young woman be buried in a straw mat, so hastily.
She took some silver and asked Niu Dalang to order a thin coffin. No matter how thick she was, she couldn't get it out. Let's just do it, it's a good deed.
No matter where Lou Xuefei was from, she died in the village after all, so Old Lady Niu and Lizheng have said that she should be buried in the ancestral grave in their village.
The village chief shook his head. At first he was unwilling, but in the end it was the widow and orphan together. He said pitifully and agreed.
During the burial, Niu's family helped the burial. After all, people went there when they were young. They are as old as flowers. So this is not a funeral, nor bragging. Ask the people in Murakami to pick a time. , The people were buried, and there was a new solitary grave in the loess graveyard at the back of the village.
Shen Qingci knelt in front of Xinmin and knocked her three heads.
The members of the Niu family are all standing in the back, and for some reason, this new tomb also makes them feel uncomfortable, and they have some unbearable sadness.
Shen Qingci knocked her head over to Niang, then she stood up, knelt down in front of the Niu family, and knocked them three heads heavily.
"Xiao Qingci, go back with your mother-in-law, and be your granddaughter." Mother Niu really didn't want to give up the child. She knew that if she didn't care about the child, the child would die sooner or later. It would either starve to death or be bad. Dead, or beggars, let alone where they died?
Shen Qingci shook his head, "Mother-in-law, I have a home, and my mother is here."
"I want to guard my mother's spirit, and my mother's spirit is there."
Lady Niu tried to persuade him for a long time, but Shen Qingci died and did not go home with Lady Niu.
Shen Qingci took another look at the new grave. She walked over, knelt on the ground, and then lay on the surface of the grave. She was not afraid, because she was a mother.
She seems to remember the body temperature of the mother, that's it.
Mother said that she would look at her in the sky.
She believes her words.
In the evening, the lights of each house are lit up, and each house is filled with the smell of food.
Shen Qingci took a hard bun. She was small and couldn't eat much. This bun was sent by the rich wife. She didn't care whether it was delicious or not. She knew that her father would be here soon, so she waited. .
She ate the hard bun like a stone, but tears rolled from her face.
At night, she huddled alone on the old wooden bed that the mother had slept on. It was also covered with the rotten quilt that the mother had covered. It still smelled like a mother. She remembered that this was the smell of a mother.
This was the second day she came back. On the first day, the mother was gone. On the second day, she buried her with her own hands. She firmly grasped the rag cotton on her body, and the fingertips of her little hands were also white.
No one knows that this night, her tears were so unscrupulous that she had dried up all her life.
She doesn't know how to cry, nor is she cold-blooded, she can cry, she can cry, she can cry, she really can cry, but she can't cry, she can't live anymore.
When she woke up the next day, she touched her face and wiped her small face clean with the back of her hand. Then she went to the kitchen and took the black-faced bun that was bigger than her face and bit it. She ate, and after eating a little and a half, she ate her stomach. When she came out, the rising sun in the distance was slowly rising.
The pale white morning sun finally stained her young face. In the sky, half of the wall was blue and half of it was frosty.
Stepping on her calf, she went to the fields to pick a lot of wild flowers, and then went to see her mother.
She put the wild flowers next to the grave, and then lay on the grave.
Mother, A Ning has come to accompany her mother, mother, A Ning misses her mother very much, A Ning also saw her the day before, but today's mother doesn't want A Ning anymore, mother, do you think there is a mother like you in this world? Only four years old, but you don't want Ah Ning anymore.
She sniffed and wiped her face clean with her small hands.
