"Sister Xiuyun, generally this thing pesters people, what is the wish of the family, just like my family, when I left, I saw that I was pregnant, and I was worried about our orphans and widows, so I was reluctant to leave, so I pestered me. (You can find this site) do you want to ask what is pestering your second sister's wishes. Widow Zhou said sincerely.

"But that thing doesn't look like she has any unfulfilled wishes, I feel like she just wants to get my second sister, and she won't stop until she dies." My mother is bitter, but she can still say two sincere words in the face of Widow Zhou, after all, the two of them have shared ups and downs.

Widow Zhou pondered for a long time, and then said to my mother with a heavy face: "This thing may be an evil thing, I heard Zhou Da say at that time, his kind of ghost is ordinary, ordinary ghost, there is a kind of ghost that is an evil ghost, even he doesn't dare to provoke, that kind of ghost is resentful, and he has no scruples, anyway, it is an annoying thing to entangle people." I'm afraid you have to find Master Jiang for this matter. ”

"I've looked for it, but after so long, I haven't had a letter, I'm in my heart."

At that time, communication was far less developed, and my parents had no other way but to wait.

Another three days have passed, this village has become a little sad because of the second sister's affairs, the peace and tranquility of the past is gradually disappearing, everyone has something on their minds, meeting and chatting and greeting have become less, every family goes to bed early every night, but many families can still hear the strange opera sound in the middle of the night.

Because my second sister's condition was so serious that every night after 11 o'clock, she would sing as she walked to the grave.

I don't dare to say, let alone admit it, in my heart I think that my second sister is about to die, and now in the daytime she almost doesn't open her eyes, and occasionally when she opens her eyes, the eyes are still the same as the few days ago, but with a kind of resentful gaze carefully looking at everyone in my family, as if thinking about something.

I knew that it was definitely not my second sister at that time, but that female ghost! Let's see, that female ghost can haunt my second sister during the day, isn't my second sister dying?

I feel sad to think about it, but there's nothing I can do.

Several times I remembered what happened in the cemetery that night, and remembered the amazing performance of the tiger claw hanging around my neck that night, I wanted to take it off and give it to my second sister to wear, but my parents resolutely stopped me, and I didn't even have a chance to put it on my second sister secretly.

Because they are now guarding the second sister almost day and night, my father hasn't worked for a few days.

I was anxious for the last time and asked my father, "This thing is really useful, why don't you let me put it on my second sister?" ”

My dad thought about it for a long time, and finally answered me helplessly for the first time: "If you take it off, I'm afraid that the consequences will be more serious, and something more unexpected will happen, and it may not be able to save your second sister." I will do my best for your second sister, I can't afford to lose another son. ”

The meaning of my father's words was a little harder for me to understand at the time, but I understood it, and when I took it off, something more terrible would happen, and I couldn't take it off.

So, I couldn't do anything, and the feeling was like a big cold hand that directly clenched my little heart, making me feel heavier and depressed than ever.

Three days later, in the afternoon, an old man appeared in the village.

The old man was dirty, wearing a gray short-sleeved shirt, and his chest was wide open, a pair of trousers with a fat trouser tube and crotch, tied with a cloth rope, and the funny thing was that the fat trousers, one trouser leg was lifted above the knee, and the other hung down directly, as if he had just finished the field.

If you look closely, this old man is wearing a gray shirt, which is obviously white! It's just that it's too dirty to see its true colors.

In addition, his hair was messy, his beard was tangled, and there were some inexplicable marks on his face, which I couldn't tell if it was dust or dirt.

Just such an old man, who appeared silently in the village in the afternoon, with a pair of hands behind his back, and his eyes were sly looking east and west in the fields of September, and laughing from time to time.

It was as if he was also admiring the ripening crops in the autumn of September.

Such an old man made a group of six or seven-year-old children in the village look inexplicable and vigilant, but it made the adults in the village feel a kind of cordiality for no reason, this image is too familiar to them, isn't this the old man Jiang who has disappeared in the village for a long time?

After he disappeared, the people of the village also talked about him, and everyone would have some sympathy for a lonely old man, even if the old man was very obscene. Some people also worriedly thought about whether Old Man Jiang would freeze to death during the very cold Spring Festival seven years ago, but as soon as he said it, everyone denied it.

Compared with this, everyone is more willing to believe that this old man went to seek refuge with relatives, didn't his second uncle come once?

"Is it Old Man Jiang?" Some villagers in the village began to greet him, for a person who had been 'wandering' in the village for so long, the simple villagers had feelings, otherwise they would not be cordial.

"Yes, yes." Old man Jiang responded enthusiastically.

"Where have you been all these years? I'm afraid I haven't seen you in years. Another enthusiastic villager asked.

"I went to a relative's house in the north, and I remembered the sea pepper (chili pepper) Ba Shi (good, comfortable meaning) here, the girl is beautiful, and I am back again. By the way, Liu Fang in the village, doesn't she think I have it? You can't fool me, tell me the truth, she doesn't think I have? Old man Jiang replied solemnly, and the black line on the end of the villagers present couldn't help but burst into laughter after all.

Old man Jiang is old man Jiang, his true colors do not change, Liu Fang is the most beautiful girl in the village, old man Jiang loves to follow behind others, once he was chased by the angry old man Liu Fang with a broom, even if this is not able to drive away old man Jiang, he still followed Liu Fang the next day.

Fortunately, the people in the village later became familiar with his temperament, so he went, but he didn't expect to come back, hehe

"Old man Jiang, Liu Fang is married, I'm afraid I won't miss you," a villager ridiculed.

As soon as this old man Jiang came back, it was like injecting vitality into this panicked village, everyone was inexplicably happy, and the haze of so many days seemed to be swept away.

Liu Fang is married?! This sentence was like a thunderbolt on the heart of the old man Jiang, and the old man immediately 'embarrassed', and muttered in his mouth: "Really, Liu Fang doesn't think about me, Liu Fang doesn't wait for me, wait for me to earn a dowry." ”

"Alas, alas," the old man Jiang sighed again and again, looking distressed.

The old man Liu Fang was also in the crowd, and he was so angry and funny by the old man Jiang that he couldn't get a seizure, who in the village didn't know, this old man was a cargo with a mouth full of trains? It's up to him to say, look at him like that, he doesn't really want to marry Liu Fang.

"Old man Jiang, the eggplants in my field are ripe, do you want to eat some fresh eggplants?"

"Old man Jiang, there are still fruits hanging on the tomatoes in my field, red and delicious, you want it"

"Old man Jiang, my family"

“”

"Don't go, don't go, Liu Fang is married, today Lao Tzu is going on a hunger strike, don't go!" The old man Jiang put his hands behind his back and left in great frustration, leaving behind the laughter behind him.

People looked at his back with a smile, thinking that this old man was too cola, and that he must get him some fresh goods from the field another day, well, not let him work! The simple villagers all thought so.

The old man Jiang slipped away and left, and the villagers dispersed, anyway, they got used to it many years ago, this old man was 'elusive', at this time, the villagers who were also a little more active would think, when did this old man come back? Why don't you see a piece of luggage? He still lives in the mountains?

But I didn't think about it deeply, this old man Jiang seemed to have a great sense of existence, and it seemed to be extremely unnoticeable, his arrival was the same as his departure, people were confused, and people seemed to have become accustomed to his 'elusiveness'.

My family didn't know that Old Man Jiang was back, just because of my second sister's business, my parents haven't been out for several days, except when the second sister goes out to sing at night, they will follow.

Now my parents don't even have a break.

When Old Man Jiang was making trouble in the village, my mother was 'pouring' porridge to the second sister, and the second sister would not take the initiative to eat any food now, and she was already thin, but now she only has a handful of bones left.

My parents were very distressed about this situation, and in desperation, they had to chop the lean meat and vegetables finely, add some rice, boil them into wrinkles like liquid food, and when it was cooler, they forcibly poured it down for my second sister!

Even so, my second sister swallowed less and spit out more, and the situation was terrible.

In this way, the only hope of my parents is Old Man Jiang, they don't believe that Old Man Jiang will 'miss the appointment', their trust in Old Man Jiang is the same as back then, but after a long time, they are inevitably anxious, and the corners of their mouths have a lot of bubbles.
