Chapter 94: . Village

94. The Village
Early the next morning, they drove up the mountain, but the car could only barely drive to the village office, so they couldn’t get there. From the village office to the village, there was no road, only a narrow path and only walking, so they Park the car at the village office and walk back to the village. www.しwxs. com
At the entrance of the village, I met Uncle Monkey. He said from a long way: "My second child is back, why doesn't your mother come back?"
Meng Zijun stroked the bag he was carrying, "My mother is back too, and we specially sent her back this time."
The monkey looked at the bag on Meng Zijun's body in surprise, and it took him a long time to react. He pointed to the bag in disbelief and asked, "Could it be...aunt she..."
Meng Zijun explained: "My mother is gone... She is here, I will bring her back and let her be with my dad."
"Auntie is gone, how could it happen? It was too sudden, the villagers said that she would go to the provincial capital with you, this time you will enjoy your blessing!
"Monkey brother, I want to ask you to ask two people to help my mother build a house."
The monkey said, "No problem, but the aunt has been cremated now, what will her house do?"
"There is already a ready-made coffin at home, I want her to go into the soil with the coffin."
The monkey nodded, "If you say that, I know how to do it."
Meng Zijun said, "Thank you to find someone, and if you find someone to bring to my house, I will take you to the graveyard. I want to let my mother into the soil before 3 o'clock this afternoon."
The monkey was gone, Meng Zijun and the others walked home and entered the village. Ling Yunfeng and Li Yahui looked around. If you hadn't seen such a primitive and backward village, it would be impossible to imagine that there are still people living this life.
Go home. There was no one living in the house for more than half a year. There was dust everywhere, and the water had to be picked. Meng Zijun was going to pick water. Meng Qingqing stopped and said, "Dad, you are at home! If Uncle Monkey calls someone, you have to Follow them to see the graveyard."
Meng Qingqing carried the bucket out. Li Yahui and Ling Yunfeng also followed curiously.
Meng Qingqing arrived at the water pool. There were a few women washing clothes and vegetables there. Meng Qingqing greeted them. The women looked curiously at Li Yahui and Ling Yunfeng who were coming with Meng Qingqing.
A neighbor said: "Qingqing. Why did you come back? I heard that your father is cured, and you and your grandma have gone to live in the provincial capital. What are you doing back in this poor mountain valley?"
Meng Qingqing's eyes reddened, "Aunty. My grandma is gone, and my dad and I sent grandma back into the soil."
"Huh? Qingqing. What did you say? Your grandma is gone? I heard it right, right?"
"Auntie, how can I talk nonsense about this kind of thing?"
Meng Qingqing bent down and shook the bucket into the pool, then a bucket of water came out. The same is true on the other side, she easily carried a load of water and left. The women behind were all talking like they were fried.
"Oh my god! Aunt Meng, how can I leave?"
Li Yahui quickly caught up with Meng Qingqing, who was dangling and holding water. "Qingqing, I'll help you bear it."
Meng Qingqing is also welcome. Put it down, "Okay! Let you experience life in the countryside."
Seeing the little Meng Qingqing carrying it lightly and striding steadily, Li Yahui thought he could do it too, but the burden was on his shoulders, but the pain was terribly painful, and when he managed to walk, it was swaying, and The posture was terribly ugly with his head shrunk and shoulders. The water in the bucket was also shaken out, and Ling Yunfeng bends over with a smile. Holding his belly straight "Oh!"
Li Yahui gritted his teeth and insisted on walking a distance of seven or eight hundred meters. He was too tired to walk and had to put the bucket down.
Li Yahui rubbed his sore shoulder and said to Ling Yunfeng angrily: "Why are you smiling? You can do it, you can try it."
Ling Yunfeng rolled up his sleeves, "Try it. Qingqing can choose, why can't I?"
But with the load on his shoulders, Ling Yunfeng couldn't laugh. His posture was not much better than Li Yahui's. He grinned, shrank his head and shook his head.
This time it was Li Yahui's turn to laugh, but only after a laugh, he asked Meng Qingqing, "Is it just now, I am what he is now?"
Meng Qingqing nodded, "Almost!"
When Ling Yunfeng started, he tried his best to make himself walk more calmly, but after a while, he blushed and his feet staggered. He only managed to reach more than 800 meters before putting down the bucket.
Meng Qingqing stepped forward and said, "It's better for me to come! You haven't picked it before, you are not used to it."
Li Yahui took the lead, "If I come, I don't believe that I can't practice."
Li Yahui picked a distance and put it down to rest. Ling Yunfeng was also not convinced, Li Yahui sent it down, and he picked it up again. The two took turns taking the load back home.
The tank needs three loads of water to be full, not to mention the two of them sloshing out a lot.
Meng Qingqing said, "Do you still want to exercise? If you want to exercise, then pick it up. I will scrub at home. There may be many people coming to your door later."
Of course the two refused to admit defeat and continued to choose. They knew the way anyway, so Meng Qingqing stayed at home to clean.
Meng Qingqing wiped the offering table, and Meng Zijun put the old lady's ashes on the offering table. He had already lit incense and burned some coins. Get two bowls of water at the door.
In a short while, people from the village who heard the news came one after another. When they came in and saw the urn, some people regretted and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Or get it back in advance, and there is a whole body." The person next to her abducted her. , She was silent, if it wasn't a last resort, who didn't want to get the whole body back, didn't this poke someone's sore spot?
Meng Qingqing hurriedly boiled water to greet the guests, and the person said, "What can I do for you?"
Meng Zi was stunned. His original idea was to simply send his mother to the mountain to be safe, but there were so many people in the village at once, and almost every household had people. If it's done, you have to entertain.
At this time, the monkey had found two people. They were specially digging the graveyard for the dead. Meng Zijun gave out three thousand yuan to the monkey and said, "Brother, I have not been in the village these years, and I have never done anything like this. You can help me get two meals."
The monkey said: "It's far from the town, the car is inconvenient, and time is tight. You can buy pigs, chickens, eggs and vegetables in the village!"
Meng Zijun nodded, "You are the master! I will take these two big brothers to see the cemetery first."
The monkey arranged for people to start cooking. He called two people to buy rice and vegetables.
After a while, Li Yahui and Ling Yunfeng came back carrying water. They were so tired that they were sweating and their faces flushed.
Someone next to him said: "These two children seem to be people who have never picked up water." They spoke in dialect.
Another said: "For such a big occasion, someone has to carry water to provide it. Ask the old one to pick it!"
Meng Qingqing greeted Li Yahui and Ling Yunfeng, let them rest, saying that someone had been arranged to carry water. There are also people who specialize in other things and don't need their help. Meng Qingqing is also busy and can't take care of the two of them, so let them walk around in the village.
Li Yahui rubbed his shoulders and said, "Why are so many people here all at once?"
Meng Qingqing explained,
This is the case in the village. As long as one family has something to do, the whole village will take the initiative to help. Of course, if the popularity is good, if the popularity is not good, there will be fewer people coming. Now I see every family in the village. Everyone is here, and my grandma is very popular in the village." (To be continued.)
