【440】The row of stone tablets on the mountainside

I sighed and ignored the old man. I didn’t think about his affairs and drove hard. Everyone was chatting and joking in the car. In less than two hours, we arrived at the small county where Sister Qing lives.

In the county town, the navigation system could no longer list the towns or villages inside. Sister Qing’s home was in the town, not in the village yet. She opened the passenger window and Lin Ran started asking questions in the car. While asking, we searched for them.

, about an hour later, we arrived at the door of a Qingqing Communications store. This store is the largest store in the town. It sells mobile phones and other things. It is a good size. The house is also a small two-story building, and there are

There are two buildings, and the one at the back is probably where people live.

I looked around again, No. 159, Heping Street. I walked a few steps forward and found that the number in front was No. 158. I walked around the store and at the back, it became No. 160. Again.

Returning to the door of the store, "I stretched out my hand and pointed, it should be here. It can't be wrong."

"Are you sure?"

"It's not a shame to find the wrong way. Moreover, this restaurant has obviously been recently renovated. The street number is no longer there, so it's normal that I can't find it."

The two girls looked at me with disdain, got out of the car, and the three of us entered the mobile phone store.

As soon as I entered the mobile phone store, a waiter came up and said with a strong local accent, "Hello, everyone, I would like to buy something."

I smiled at her and said, "Sorry, I'm not buying anything. I'm looking for someone."

"Looking for someone?" The waiter said, "Okay, who are you looking for? I'll let you know."

"Look for your boss here."

"Boss?" The woman shook her head, "The boss is out, but the wife of the boss is here."

"That's okay, that's okay." I smiled and said, "Can you please help me announce it."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

"Thanks."

Watching the woman leave, I touched my head and said, "Isn't this Sister Qing's? How come we have a boss and a boss's wife."

"Maybe it belongs to her parents." Lin Ran said, "Isn't this the address of her hometown?"

"Yeah, that's right." Sure enough, a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her 50s came out of the back room. She had short hair, big eyes, and heavy makeup. She looked somewhat similar to Sister Qing.

.

The woman came over and looked at the three of us in surprise, "How many? How many?"

"Hello, aunt." I nodded politely to the woman, "My name is Wang Yue, and I am Sister Qing's younger brother."

"Qingqing?" the woman asked.

I nodded, "Yes, Auntie, Qingqing is my sister. I don't know if she has mentioned you to me."

"Wang Yue, is it?" the woman asked, "It's Wang Yue, right?"

"Yes, Auntie." I was a little confused. "My sister has heard of it?"

The woman nodded, "I heard my daughter say, come, come, come in."

"No, Auntie, there are still things in the car, and my sister is there."

The woman looked at me, "What else are you bringing? I'll take you to see Qingqing later. He's not here."

"It's okay, Auntie. How can I get the things? There are a lot of things in the car. They are all in there." I pointed to the inside of the car. "I bought them all. Auntie, just accept them. I wish you a happy New Year."

The woman shook her head, "Come on, come on, I'll find someone to unload the things."

"Okay." I handed the car key to the waitress. Sister Qing's mother gave a few instructions, and then led us into a room from the front. In the room, there was another security door.

After opening the security door, we went to the backyard. The backyard was quite big, and there was a two-story building that we built ourselves. In the backyard, I saw Shen Feng's BMW at a glance.

I stopped at that time, a little curious as to why this BMW was here. I carefully looked at the model of the car and then the brand. Yes, even the brand had not been changed.

The woman looked at me and stopped, "What's wrong?"

I said "Ah, ah" twice and smiled, "It's okay, it's okay. This."

"The one left by Qingqing is normal for you to know. It belongs to the man before him. It has been kept here for a long time and has not been touched."

I looked at this familiar BMW and thought about how when I first saw Shen Feng, this man who had always been the coolest and most handsome man in my mind ended up like this. Suddenly, I felt nostalgic and sentimental. .

"Auntie, I want to take a look."

"Go." The woman's voice was low.

I slowly walked to the side of the BMW. Qingqing's mother opened the door. After getting in, she sat in the driver's seat. She opened the interlayer inside the sun visor and the photos scattered with a "clatter". What came out was a photo of Sister Qing and Shen Feng. It was there. The two people in the photo were smiling very happily. Looking at Sister Qing hugging Shen Feng, the corners of their mouths were filled with the most sincere smile from the heart. , I lament that time flies so fast. Five or six years ago, I first met Sister Qing, and then I met Shen Feng for the first time. In the blink of an eye. After so long, I still vaguely remember that I was behind and Shen Feng was driving. Sister Qing was the co-pilot again and gave me Shen Feng’s hidden possessions of Great China. I held the cigarette with a satisfied smile.

He shook his head vigorously and slapped his head, "What am I thinking?"

After getting out of the car, I saw Shen Lin and Lin Ran looking at me. Sister Qing's mother was also standing at the door, "Come in, it's cold outside."

I said "Yes". I don't know why, but I felt very bad. I started thinking wildly. To enter Sister Qing's house, I had to step on three steps, and then there was a sliding door. When I went up the steps, I kept thinking wildly. , then one of them failed to step firmly, I said "ah", my foot slipped, and my head hit the sliding door on the side.

There was a loud "bang", and something even more surprising happened. The sliding door actually fell down from the inside. Following the "bang", the door fell down. The glass on the door also shattered. land.

"What's wrong!" A very anxious voice sounded from inside, and then the sliding door on the other side was pushed open. Sister Qing's mother was very frightened and grabbed me. "What's wrong with you? What's wrong?"

I shook my head and pointed at the sliding door on the ground.

Qingqing's mother glanced at me and then at the sliding door. "It's okay, it's okay. This door has been there for a long time. Why did it fall down?"

"He knocked him down with his head. I heard the sound." Lin Ran said at the side, "Auntie, let me clean up this glass."

"No, no, I'll do it."

"It's okay, Auntie, you can rest, we can do it." After Lin Ran and Shen Lin finished speaking, they entered the room to find a broom and dustpan.

Sister Qing's mother reached out and touched my head, "My child, are you okay? You didn't fall or hit me."

I was a little shocked. I didn’t know why. I touched my forehead and said, “It’s okay, sister. It doesn’t hurt at all.”

This time, it was Sister Qing's mother who was shocked: "You, what did you call me?"

Only then did I realize, "Ah, Auntie, it's okay, it's okay. This door." Then I touched my forehead again, and I didn't feel any pain at all. "I'm okay, Auntie."

Sister Qing's mother stood there for about ten seconds without saying a word.

I smiled and said, "Auntie, it's cold outside, please go back."

Sister Qing's mother nodded, "Forget it, let's go and take you to see Qingqing."

"Sister Qing is not at home?"

Sister Qing's mother shook her head, "She is at her grandma's house. Her grandma has loved her since she was a child. This girl has also been spoiled. Let me take you there."

"Oh well."

Shen Lin and Lin Ran came out and swept up the glass shards on the ground. After cleaning, I lifted the sliding door and tried to put it in. I tried for a long time, but it didn't work.

In the end, we gave up and put the sliding door aside. We arrived at the door of the mobile phone store and unloaded everything in the car. I drove, and Sister Qing’s mother gave me directions. First, I bought two large bags of noodles in a town. There were also two large bags of rice and several barrels of oil, filling the trunk. I also bought many daily necessities. I was too embarrassed to ask, so I had to follow.

After getting everything ready, we drove for more than an hour to a very cheap and deserted place, and then entered a small road that could only accommodate one car. If another car drove out from the opposite side, it would definitely not be there. If you drive in the wrong way, you can only retreat in one direction and exit in the other. After walking for a while along this opened trail, a village appeared.

Shen Lin spoke from behind at this time, "There is no signal here."

Sister Qing's mother smiled and said, "There is no signal in the village. It will be fine soon."

I drove around the village. The roads in the village were quite spacious, and there were not many people in the winter. I drove to the entrance of a dilapidated dirt yard. I stopped the car, and Sister Qing's mother got out of the car and pushed her Open the door, and inside is an adobe and earth-tile house. "Mom, I'm back."

We followed into the yard, and an elderly couple came out of the room. They both had gray hair and were dressed like typical old farmers. After we entered, they greeted us with "grandpa, grandma." Then I went to open the trunk. He took out all the things inside and carried them into the room, where the fire pit was still burning.

After getting all the things in, I felt that it was really hot in this winter. Shen Lin and Lin Ran only took a few bottles of oil, but they said they were tired and were too embarrassed to ask their aunt for help. I had to do it all myself.

After everything was put away, I realized that Sister Qing was not there. I smiled sheepishly, "Where is my sister?"

Sister Qing's grandparents were a little surprised and looked at me.

Sister Qing's mother stopped them and said, "I'll take you there."

Lin Ran and Chen Lin followed the elderly couple for a while and then left the yard with Sister Qing's mother. Sister Qing's mother stopped us from driving and told us that it was a mountain road and the car could not go on.

So we walked. Shen Lin and Lin Ran were still wearing high heels. Now, these two girls were exhausted. After climbing for more than half an hour, we reached a place halfway up the mountain. I stood there and just I was confused. I felt very, very bad along the way. I just kept stopping myself from thinking about it. I didn’t dare to think about it. It was impossible, impossible.

Now standing on the mountainside, I turned to look at Sister Qing's mother, "Auntie, what do you mean?"

Sister Qing's mother's eyes were red. She took out an envelope from her purse and handed it to me slowly, "Wang Yue, right?"

I nodded, and numbly found the envelope. On the envelope were written "Xiao Wang Yue, personally, five words." Looking at these words, I can even think of Sister Qing's expression when she wrote these words.

I looked again at the row of stone tablets halfway up the mountain.
