Chapter 768: Do what you should do
"Second brother, which one is the authentic second sister-in-law?" Yang Tong stood next to him and asked with a smile. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"You guess, if you guess right, there will be a prize!" Yang Ling said, turning around and walking out of the fire room.
"Really?," Yang Tong came out behind with a face full of surprise.
Yang Ling walked away, his hand turned over slightly, a pack of cigarettes and a lighter appeared in his hand, opened it and took one in his mouth, and then looked at Yang Tong, who was looking forward to it, and also threw one to him, and set it on fire.
In the slight cold wind, Yang Ling took a deep breath, and waited for the cold air mixed with smoke to fill his lungs, and then he felt much more refreshed.
The lonely old house is old, and the mottled walls leave the shadow of time.
The small empty yard, a bamboo fence almost half a person high, and the morning glory and carob vines that used to crawl in summer have long since fallen and withered.
Two peach trees, a pear tree, have now grown to more than ten meters high, holding dead branches in the cold wind, the vicissitudes of life are a mess, and the traces of climbing on them are still faintly there.
Every tree and grass, brick and tile, from spring to summer, from autumn to winter, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and they are still very familiar when they were children.
I have dug up the miscellaneous mound of earthworms, the grape trellis that flowed through saliva, the persimmon tree that smashed the summer cicada, and the well teeth that caught the crickets.
The result of mischievous mischief is to meet the father's generous palm, the mother's reproachful gaze, but ...... Pain and pleasure, isn't it?
Every rural baby's childhood is a carefree song.
And this small yard carries the happiest time of a lifetime.
Then, as they continue to grow up, these are getting farther and farther away, but no matter how far away, they will always appear in dreams, the white pear blossoms that bloom in the spring light, the trumpet flowers that bloom in the early hours of the summer morning, the green fruits hanging on the branches and gently swaying, and the small red lanterns on the branches filled with autumn mist, like a memory that cannot be erased and remain in the bones, and have become a part of life.
Whether it is ten years or a hundred years and a thousand years, I will always dream back at midnight when I am not careful, and then turn over and lick my mouth in my sleep.
……
Listening to the sound of giggling and laughing constantly coming from the room, Yang Ling's face showed a trace of comfort that he had not seen for a long time.
Although the elders are already old, after all, they now have this ability, which can make them live longer and healthier, and everyone has been living happily together, how good.
"Second brother, you haven't told me what the reward is?" Yang Tong gently flicked the cigarette ash, looking a little old-fashioned.
Yang Ling couldn't help but twitch a few times, but when he thought of what he looked like when he was in college, he was a little relieved.
Once, several brothers in the dormitory also pooled money to buy cigarettes.
"What reward do you want?" Yang Ling retracted his gaze from his reverie, and then asked with a smile.
"Hey, hey!" Yang Tong laughed a few times and said a little excitedly: "I want the latest Apple mobile phone!"
Yang Ling couldn't help but roll his eyes, "That's it?"
Yang Tong was stunned for a moment and nodded repeatedly: "Second brother, how many thousand is an Apple mobile phone?"
Well, Yang Ling was defeated by his IQ, and he also had doubts about where his rhetorical question was used.
So he took out his mobile phone and said, "Guess, I'll transfer the money to you right away!"
Yang Tong's eyes rolled a few times and said mysteriously: "I guess it's Sister Xinglin!"
Yang Ling smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Yes, you have a vision, you guessed right!"
After finishing speaking, he directly transferred 8,000 yuan to Yang Tong, and immediately made this guy happy that he couldn't find the north, and praised the second brother for his good eyes, Sister Xinglin is beautiful and good-tempered, and she is simply the best choice for the second sister-in-law to travel at home.
Just when the two brothers were standing in the yard chatting and farting, Yang Ling saw his father coming in from the courtyard door in a hurry, with a solemn look on his face.
Yang Ling chuckled in his heart and hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Dad, what's going on?"
"Zhang Sanye is dying, I'll come back and call your mother to help, alas! Tomorrow is the New Year, this thing is done!" Yang Benshun said a word and walked into the fire room, and after a while, there was a sound of dragging chairs and stools in the room, and a group of people walked out in a hurry, especially Grandpa, his face became very bad, his steps were fast, and he almost stepped on the air when he went down the steps.
Yang Ling hurriedly went up to help his grandfather, he was also a little bitter in his heart, and he didn't know what to say, Zhang Sanye and his grandfather were about the same age, and they were companions who had been playing since childhood, and suddenly heard that they were leaving, and this sudden blow made him very uncomfortable.
Yang Tong also followed, and a group of people disappeared at the gate of the courtyard in a blink of an eye.
Sun Xiaojing and Han Xinglin finally came out of the room and walked to Yang Ling's side one left and one right, their faces were also a little solemn.
"Why don't you go and take a look?" Sun Xiaojing grabbed Yang Ling's arm.
Yang Ling touched her hand, smiled hard and said, "The family is gone, aren't I worried about you two?"
"We are not children, what is there to worry about, you go and take a look, Xinglin and I are waiting for you at home!" Sun Xiaojing said softly.
At this time, Yang Benshun came out with a big wooden box, Yang Ling knew that this was his father's carpentry box, which was filled with planers, chisels, ink buckets, and rulers, and took out this toolbox for only one purpose, that is, to open the nail coffin and make the spirit card.
Seeing that Dad opened the toolbox and turned out a few tools and put them on the ground, Yang Ling hesitated and walked over, "Dad, maybe...... I can save the third master!"
Yang Ben shook his hand, an axe fell and smashed at his feet, he looked at his son dumbfounded for a few seconds, and then suddenly came back to his senses and said anxiously: "You...... What you're saying is true?"
"Hmm!" Yang Ling nodded, and said with a somewhat solemn face: "But ......"
"But what?" Yang Benshun glared at him and stood up, grabbed him and walked out, "I know what you're worried about?" But our generation and your generation have grown up under the watch, they have eaten his food, drunk his water, climbed over his back, people are alive, some things can be ignored, but some things must be done, if you have this ability, you have to use it where it should be used, do it secretly, no one will find out......"
Yang Ling had no choice but to turn around and nod apologetically to the two women, and then staggered out of the yard by his father.
Zhang Sanye's family lives in the west end of the village near the river, a large jujube tree at the door, after hundreds of years of wind and frost, thick and straight, twenty or thirty meters high, now in the cold winter, the leaves have long fallen.
The village is not big, there are only twenty or thirty households, and the news spreads quickly, and it is the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month today, and almost all of them are at home, so by the time Yang Ling and his father arrived, a large group of people had gathered under the big tree.
