When the light of my flashlight hit the fallen stool on the ground, my scalp went numb. I slapped the window like crazy and shouted loudly: "Da Ya! Da Ya!!!!"
Maybe I slapped the window too loudly, and the lights in the yard turned on immediately. Yanhong opened the door with a puzzled look on her face, and looked at my sleepy look: "Jiaolong, what are you making a fuss about here!"
Seeing that she opened the door, I didn't say anything and rushed in directly. Yanhong staggered when I hit her, and then she said angrily: "What are you going to do!!"
I rushed directly to Xu Meijin's door and reached out to pull it open, but the door was locked by her on the inside and I couldn't open it. When I got anxious, I kicked the door open.
"Hey!" Yan Hong became anxious and came up to grab me: "What are you doing here at my house? I'm telling you, don't tell Daya that it's useless. She has already agreed to get married.
It’s late at night, don’t disturb her rest!!”
Xu Gang also yawned and walked out of his room and looked at me: "Jiaolong, what are you doing at this late hour?"
I shook off Yan Hong and pointed at Xu Meijin's door: "Da Ya hanged herself in the house!!"
"What..." Upon hearing my words, Yanhong was stunned, and then shook her head: "Impossible! How could Da Ya hang herself? She was still fine during dinner at night!"
I didn't have time to argue with her, so I raised my foot and kicked the door hard, with a bang! The door was kicked open by my kick, and Da Ya was hanging there, her body floating.
His face actually rushed towards the door again, as if he was looking at us.
"Ah! Oh my god!!!" Yan Hong then screamed in a high octave, covering her chest and sitting down on the ground.
I rushed in in a few steps, hugged Da Ya, and shouted, "Uncle! Come and help me!!"
"Oh my god, Daya, Daya, why can't you think about it!!!" Xu Gang was also frightened. He quickly came over to help me get Daya's neck out of the rope, and then put it on the kang next to it, waiting to be opened.
The light makes my nose sore.
Da Ya is wearing new clothes, with the hairpin I bought her from the town for the first two years of school on her head, and the earrings I bought her on her ears. She seems to have put on a little light makeup, with her eyes open.
There seemed to be a slight helplessness in his eyes, and there was a pink mark on his neck, lying there motionless.
Xu Gang put his trembling fingers on Xu Meijin's nose, then squatted down and cried loudly: "Da Ya, it's all dad's fault. Dad shouldn't let you get married, but why can't you think so hard?
!!”
Yan Hong held the door frame and did not dare to come in. She looked at Xu Gang and asked with a trembling voice: "No, are you out of breath?"
I shook my head: "No, Da Ya will be fine."
As I said that, I pressed on Xu Meijin's heart according to the nursing knowledge I had learned in school. Then I took a deep breath, pinched her nose and performed artificial respiration on her mouth. Xu Gang was shocked next to her.
Call out "Da Ya! Da Ya's eyes are closed!!"
I thought I had rescued her, so I quickly raised my head to look at her, but I didn't know that she just closed her eyes and looked like she was in silence.
In the end, I couldn't help but cry and looked at her: "Da Ya, don't be so stupid. What could be more important than your life, Da Ya!"
"It's over, it's over, Chen Wei and the others will not let us go now..." Yan Hong muttered from behind, and slowly sat on the ground: "Now we are going to be in big trouble."
Xu Gang stood up and glared at her: "No matter what, Da Ya is still my biological daughter. Feel your own conscience. How have I treated you mother and daughter since you entered the house? I am better to Linlin than Da Ya."
, can't you be nice to Daya? Now that her body is still cold, you still talk about Chen Wei!
"What's wrong with me? I can't tell the truth. Who knew this girl had such a bad temper? I thought it would be fine if she agreed. Who would have thought that she could actually hang herself? This house can still be inhabited in the future.
!"
I held Xu Meijin's hand and couldn't stand listening anymore. I turned around and yelled at them: "Stop arguing! What's the use of talking about this now! Can these big girls survive!"
Yanhong immediately fell silent and glanced at Da Ya lying on the kang with some fear. She looked at Xu Gang and waved her hand: "It's okay if I don't say anything. I'll go back to my parents' home first. This is a matter for your old Xu family."
, you can handle it yourself, but Xu Gang, I have to make it clear to you, if I come back, I won’t live in this house, it’s so unlucky!” After saying that, she turned around and went out directly.
I knew she had something wrong in her heart, that's why she was afraid. Looking at Da Ya lying there, I held her still warm hand, slowly held her in my arms, and pressed my chin against her forehead:
"Da Ya, I beg you to come back to life. You are the only friend I have. Don't leave me."
Xu Gang didn't try to save Yan Hong. He turned around and looked at Da Ya who was held in my arms. He also cried: "Da Ya, it's all dad's fault. Dad has wronged you over the years, but what about you?"
You can't just leave like this. If you survive, dad will never let you get married no matter what he says. Dad, please, don't make dad feel uncomfortable, okay..."
While he was crying, Xu Gang saw a page of letter paper placed on the cabinet beside Xu Mei's golden bed. He picked it up, took a look at it, and then handed it to me with a painful look on his face: "Jiaolong, take a look..."
I took the letter, took one look at it and burst into tears: "Da Ya, why are you so stupid..."
'Dad, Aunt Yanhong, I don't want to marry Chen Wei, so I took the first step. Jiaolong, don't be too sad. I've thought about it. I don't want to go to the county by myself. If I die here, I can live forever.
I see you, don’t feel bad. People say you can’t be reborn after such a death. Bury me in your grandma’s graveyard. In this way, you can come and see me when you go to see your grandma. We will always be
Good friend, Da Yaliu.'
Xu Gang went to call their relatives at home. I sat on the kang and hugged Xu Meijin. My heart was full of holes. When my grandma passed away, I was devastated. It took two years to calm down a little, but
Now, even the last two people left by my side, God actually wants to take them away.
"Da Ya, please wake up, I beg you, if you leave, I really don't know what I will do in the future. I have no relatives, let alone friends, and I really won't be able to live... Da Ya,
I beg you..." I kept mumbling in vain, hoping that she could hear her, open her eyes, look at me, and call me again: "Jiaolong."
"Sister..." Someone suddenly called me in my ear. I turned around and looked at the empty room: "Giving a baby? Giving birth? Come and save Daya!"
…
Three days later, Xu Meijin's funeral was held.
Yanhong may have been told by relatives of the Xu family, but she actually came back on the day of the funeral. She was still wiping tears in the yard. People who followed her kept saying that Xu Meijin was pitiful, that she couldn't think about it, that she felt distressed, and that she kept thinking
She considers herself Xu Meijin's biological mother, and she feels the pain more than anyone else!
I felt tired watching her act, but she was willing to say that I had no right to stop her. It was almost time, and firecrackers started to be set off outside. Someone lifted up Xu Meijin's pipes and prepared to go up the mountain for burial. I followed beside her.
Just as I was about to leave, I saw four motorcycles driving towards me with their horns honking. They circled around the courtyard and then stopped, kicking up the dust on the road.
There were two people on a motorcycle, both looking like they were carefree. There was a middle-aged woman inside. She walked directly into the yard as soon as she got off the motorcycle, shouting: "What's going on? What's going on in your house?"
Son!"
I stood behind and didn't respond. When I saw Yan Hong coming up to me, I said, "Matchmaker, you're here. I'm so sorry. Who knows what's wrong with my eldest daughter? She hanged herself!"
!”
It turned out to be Xu Meijin's matchmaker. I frowned and looked at a man in his late twenties who came in next. He had a bald head, an exposed arm and a blue tattoo. Although I had never seen him, I could instinctively guess.
He is the Chen Wei.
"Who's dead?!" He walked up to the matchmaker and shouted with his face raised.
The mournful music immediately stopped, not a single voice was heard in the yard, and some villagers looked at him with a little fear.
"Chen Wei, isn't it Chen Wei? It's my eldest daughter who's gone. No one would have thought of this!" Xu Gang greeted him and looked at the bald Chen Wei: "I'm really sorry, this door
This is the only way I can get you."
Chen Wei raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Gang: "You mean, your girl knew she wanted to marry me, so she committed suicide, right?"
Xu Gang's expression was a little scared, and he looked at Chen Wei: "No, that girl, she, she is stubborn, we don't know how she could hang herself, you tell me, we are more miserable than anyone else."
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Chen Wei took out a dagger and scratched the dead skin on his hands and said without raising his eyes: "Why are you feeling uncomfortable? Yesterday, someone clearly saw your eldest daughter at the entrance of the village taking a special car to go to County Chengli.
She is alive and well, are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
"Private car?" Xu Gang wiped the sweat from his head: "Where can we rural people still have private cars? Did someone see it wrong? If Da Ya is really alive and well, I can't hold a funeral for her.
.”
"Really?" Chen Wei raised his eyes and looked at Xu Gang, "Does that mean the person who saw Da Ya was blindly groping for the tiger's eye and didn't see clearly?" As he said that, he turned around and called out the person who came with him.
The young man pulled him out and said, "Come here, he said you didn't see clearly."
The young man shook his head, with a determined look on his face: "It's impossible, I can see clearly, it's Xu Meijin."
Chen Wei nodded: "That's right, who is lying then, and who is in the coffin..."
Xu Gang's throat twitched and he looked at Chen Wei: "The one in the coffin is my daughter. I'm very sorry that we didn't get married, but it's an auspicious time soon and my eldest daughter has to be buried.
ah!"
"What kind of burial?!" Chen Wei suddenly shouted and pointed a dagger at Xu Gang: "You think I'm a fool, don't you? You're showing me a show here, open the coffin! I want to see people alive, and die.
I want to see the corpse!!"
"No, eldest nephew, this coffin can't be opened, it's unlucky!" Yan Hong also said anxiously next to her.
Chen Wei then pointed the dagger at Yan Hong again: "Who the hell is your eldest nephew? Give me another try! The uncle will open the coffin today! You dare to trick me! Damn it! Open it for me!"
!!!”
As soon as he finished speaking, several young men behind him opened the lid of Xu Meijin's coffin with all their might, and then opened their mouths with a look of shock on their faces: "Brother! It's empty! There's nothing in the coffin!!"
