Grandma looked at Xu Meijin, sighed, stretched out her hand to touch her face, "Oh, what a sin, Da Ya, don't cry, your mother won't die." Then she looked back at Xu Gang again.
Don't forget to come to me when your wife wakes up later. I'll go back and burn incense and wait for you."
Xu Gang nodded repeatedly, but he still said, "Aunt Ma, my wife can't take my mother's things."
Grandma didn't say much, she took my hand and walked out directly. On the way home, grandma glanced at me and suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Jiaolong, you should be nicer to Daya in the future. That child's life is miserable."
"
I responded with a vague understanding and raised my eyes to look at grandma, "Grandma, Daya and I are the best. Among the children in the village, Daya and I are the best."
Grandma hummed, touched my head and walked into the yard of our house.
After she finished putting on the incense, I couldn't help but opened my mouth and asked, "Grandma, why don't you look like you after you smoked just now?"
Because my grandma usually doesn’t smoke at home, and I think her voice changed after she finished smoking, so I was a little scared.
Grandma looked at me and smiled, "Because it's the fairy in grandma who is talking, not grandma."
I pointed at the house and asked, "Is this our Xian'er?"
Grandma nodded, "Yes, it's not convenient for grandma to light incense outside, so I invited them over when I smoked. Are you afraid?"
Speaking of being scared, I was very scared when I saw it for the first time yesterday, but I wasn’t so scared when I saw it again this morning, but I also felt very panicked. Thinking about it, I nodded, “Yeah, a little bit, grandma, but Xiaohu is
Why can I see it all the time, but I only see a little bit from behind, and then Da Ya can’t see it at all.”
"Jiaolong, grandpa told you, even children can see it. It's okay if you see it. Just don't be afraid." Grandpa interrupted at this time.
"But why can't you see it?" She didn't see it at all. I still remember the scene where her grandma was sitting on the wicker chair and I showed Xu Meijin.
"This..." Grandpa was a little stuck and looked directly at grandma, "Old lady, tell the child."
Grandma rolled her eyes at him, "If you don't understand, stop pretending to be understanding." She said, looking at me, "Jiaolong, you have to remember that you are different from other children, you will see it, so
, even if you see it, don’t go out and talk nonsense, you know how easy it is to scare people.”
I looked at my grandma in confusion, "Why am I different from others? Xiaohu can also see it."
"Xiaohu is young, and he won't be scared if he sees it at that age. His grandma is back, and she doesn't want to scare him, so she deliberately lets him see it. Grandma tells you this, you can see the dead
People are souls, and when they want you to see them, you will see them."
"Can adults also see it?"
My grandma suddenly discovered that my thirst for knowledge was very strong at that age, so she directly used her trump card, looked at me and said, "Jiaolong, when you grow up, you will know."
She came to announce that her explanation ended here, but I still had only a half-understanding.
Just when I was about to open my mouth to ask something, Xu Gang ran over in a hurry, shouting loudly, "Aunt Ma, the jade pendant, the jade pendant is found!"
Shouting, he ran into the house and looked at his grandma with an angry look on her face, "I really let that bitch take it away. She hid the jade pendant in my corn barn. She said it was my mother who left even after she left, wearing this thing."
It didn't work, so she sold it for money. You said this prodigal woman, this is an ordinary pendant. When she was young, my mother was reluctant to buy gold and silver for herself. When she left, she specially told us that she would wear it.
I walked like this, but I didn’t expect to be laughed at. She dared to take this, and she was carrying it behind my back. I was so angry!"
Grandma stood up and looked at him, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. You should quickly find a few stronger men in the village, who are born in the year of tiger. Then go to the grave and put this on your mother."
Xu Gang looked at his grandma with some confusion, "Auntie, why do you want someone who was born in the year of tiger? It's hard to find someone who was born in the year of tiger."
Grandma frowned and said, "You have to hold it down for your mother. Otherwise, will she still be able to come to your house all the time?" Finally, grandma warned again, "Don't forget to buy some incense and candles to burn paper. Go quickly."
"Hey! Okay." Xu just responded and hurriedly went to find someone. Grandma looked at me and said, "Jiaolong, you stay at home with your grandpa today and don't go anywhere."
I said 'hmm' and watched my grandma walk out.
When he saw grandma leaving, grandpa looked at me with a curious look on his face and couldn't help but hold my hand and said, "Jiaolong, you should see and hear less about this from now on, otherwise your mother will be very angry with you.
Your mother doesn't like these things."
I turned to look at my grandpa, "What does my mother like?"
"Your mother likes you if you study well. When you go to school and study well, your mother will like you."
I shook my head and looked at my grandpa seriously, "No, my mother doesn't like me. She doesn't even come back to see me. I know my mother doesn't like me. You and grandma are the only ones who like me."
Grandpa was speechless for a moment, and after a long while, he sighed, "Jiaolong, you have really grown up and know everything." After saying that, he stood up and went to the yard to play with the vegetables he had grown.
Maybe I didn’t understand what adults said at the time, but I knew clearly in my heart that my parents didn’t like me. When I grew up, my mother came back to visit me three times. I still remember the first time I saw her.
At that time, my grandma found me when I was playing outside, then pointed at the young woman in the yard with a happy face and said, "Jiaolong, that's your mother, please call me mother!"
Of course, I called her at that time because I thought it would be sad if I didn’t call her grandma. To me, mom is a title, but not a close person. Even Xu Meijin said to me, Jiaolong, is your mother because of you?
It's girls who don't like you. I heard from my mother that your grandma wants a grandson.
There are some things that adults think I don’t understand, but I do. In my heart, I only have feelings for two people, grandma and grandpa, and I only have feelings for a piece of land, that is this village. I feel that this is mine.
I am not curious about my home, the people around me, or the places around me, nor do I think about them.
