When the sun was in mid-air, Li Yinxiu came back in a hurry, took a handful of incense and a bag of rice and planned to go out again, this time she took Xu Jing with her and told Xiaobao to watch the house.
Xiaobao tugged on her sleeve and acted like a baby, "Grandma, I'm going too."
Li Yinxiu wiped the sweat off his forehead with his rough fingers: "You stay at home and be obedient."
Xiao Bao quit and hugged Li Yinxiu's waist, "No, all the idiots are going, I want to go too!"
"What are you going to do? It's not a good place." Li Yinxiu said without hesitation, and lifted her grandson off her body, "Let your sister cook something delicious for you, and we'll be back after lunch."
Xiaobao Guijing, "Grandma, cook for me, sister won't cook for me."
"Okay, okay, I'll fry the bacon for you." Li Yinxiu had no choice but to turn around and go back to the kitchen, and took out a small piece of bacon soaked in oil from a ceramic soy sauce jar under the cabinet, put it in a bowl, and put it on the cutting board. Brush it up and cut it into thin slices, pat the garlic, cut a large bowl of pepper powder, turn around and wash the pot, and start a fire under the stove.
The pot was heated up, and the oily bacon was put into the pot with a "sizzling" sound, and a burst of meaty aroma rose instantly.
Sitting under the eaves, Xu Jing could not help swallowing when he smelled the fragrance.
Xiaobao got into the kitchen, and Xu Jing followed.Li Yinxiu put a lot of chili and garlic into the pot, mixed with bacon, and slowly fried until fragrant.
The hard firewood under the stove was slowly burning, and Li Yinxiu neatly chopped a large handful of vegetables on the cutting board, and used the vegetables to wipe off the oil residue from the meat just cut, and then cut the wax gourd.
After frying the bacon, she heated up the firewood and began to fry the winter melon in the pan. While frying the winter melon, she also stewed the rice with mixed grains.
Scoop out a spoonful of water from the water tank, add half a spoonful, put it in the wax gourd and stew the winter melon, and stew the green vegetables in the pot by the way.After a while, a large plate of braised vegetables with winter melon was ready.
Multigrain rice, braised vegetables with winter melon, fried bacon with chili, this is Liang Guotao's family's lunch, Xu Jing looked at it, touched his stomach, and felt hungry again.
Li Yinxiu put all the meals in the cabinet neatly, took out a piece of bacon and stuffed it into Xiaobao's mouth, closed the cabinet door, and told Xiaobao, "You watch the lunch at home, don't let anyone steal it, and don't steal it, wait Your parents are coming back to eat together."
"Hey!" Xiaobao responded crisply, chewing the salty bacon in his mouth and smiling.
Li Yinxiu turned around and took Xu Jing out. Liang Guoqing's family lived on the other side of the living area, and it took more than ten minutes to walk.
Liang Guoqing's house was full of people. When he walked in, his house was empty, with some cobwebs hanging on the walls and mildew spots. There was no furniture in the room, and the only few benches were full of people. The simple patchwork table is full of things.
Xu Jing followed in, and the inside was chaotic, with adults everywhere, chatting miscellaneously.
He listened for a long time before he understood that this was to deal with the affairs of Liang Guoqing's mother, Cai Xiaying. Who should be invited to carry the coffin, when to go up the mountain, and funeral arrangements should be discussed in advance.
As soon as Li Yinxiu entered, she was dragged away, and Xu Jing stood blankly in a corner, not daring to run around.
After standing for a while, he went to see Cai Xiaying in the room where she lived.
There was no one in Cai Xiaying's room. She was put on the bed, her face was ashen, her lips were purple, black water seemed to overflow from her closed eyes, and there were ominous black marks on the corners of her eyes.
It is not obvious from the appearance that she has been harmed by W-rays. She looks only middle-aged, with no wrinkles on her face, very thin and short, and does not look like the age that should be due to natural death.
Xu Jing ignored the beating heart and walked a little closer. Only then did he notice that Cai Xiaying's abdomen was a little bulging, as if there was accumulated water.
"Watcher, in hidden mode, scan the information of the current deceased." After turning on the hidden mode, only Xu Jing can see and hear all the information of the Watcher.
"Yes, the hidden mode is on. The deceased was female, with a bone age of 63 years. She died about five hours and three ten minutes ago. The cause of death was systemic organ failure caused by W-rays."
Cai Xiaying's family is poor. In order to let her grandchildren eat more food, she didn't eat it herself. She went to the wild to find some wild vegetables and fruits to eat. After eating a few times, she developed W-ray syndrome, which developed within a very short period of time. die.
Xu Jing shuddered. If he didn't have Watchman and went to the wild to find some food to fill his stomach, he would end up like this.
"Hey, which family do you belong to? Why are you here? You are so ignorant!" Someone pushed the door and came in. When he saw Xu Jing, he was shocked and said with an angry face: "This is not a place where children can come in and play, hurry up!" go out!"
Xu Jing hurried out, and several women came in with shrouds, and closed the door again with a bang.
The sound of suona sounded outside, and as soon as the sad and high-pitched tune came out, the sound of gongs and drums also sounded.After a while, the women grabbed the four corners of a mattress and carried Cai Xiaying out to the thin coffin at the door.
Xu Jing looked at the sky, but the sun was not yet in the middle.
The coffin was tinkled and nailed up, and there was a sudden scream of crying in the room.
Xu Jing looked over and saw an eleven or twelve-year-old girl whose face was flushed from crying, struggling to jump onto the coffin, and a woman next to her hugged her tightly, preventing her from getting close to the coffin.
Another younger boy next to her was also crying and crying, and the same middle-aged woman hugged him.
Liang Guoqing nailed the coffin outside, weeping while nailing it.Many people inside and outside the house had red eyes and silently wiped away their tears.
The sad music was still there, and after the coffin was tied with thick ropes, several men carried the coffin with thick wooden poles.
The three members of Liang Guoqing's family were dressed in rush-made white filial piety clothes, holding paper money and walking behind while raising them.
A group of people walked away slowly, and many people followed behind to see them off.
Xu Jing didn't see Li Yinxiu, and was hesitating whether to follow, when someone behind him grabbed his arm vigorously and dragged him back.
Li Yinxiu reprimanded in a low voice, "Why are you running around?"
Xu Jing glanced at the seeing-off team outside, and then at the remaining three or five people in the room, his black and white eyes seemed to be able to speak.
Li Yinxiu carried him back to the house and placed him on a low wooden stool, and gave him a bunch of spinach for him to choose, "Pick the vegetables, we'll stay here to cook."
Xu Jing quietly started to choose vegetables, and other people in the house were not idle, washing rice and vegetables.
Someone outside the house brought in a large bucket of ground soybean milk. After the soybean milk was cooked, the bean dregs were separated with gauze, and put into the rice for steaming to make rice with bean dregs.
Add alum to the soy milk, put it in a large vat, and when the chopsticks are inserted into it, scoop out the soy milk that has turned into tofu flowers, put it in a tofu rack, wrap it with gauze, layer by layer.A big stone was placed on top to press the water inside the tofu to seep out as soon as possible.
Gradually, the smell of food lingers in the room.
The tables, stools, bowls and chopsticks borrowed from everywhere were washed and laid out, and all the dishes were served on the table.Stir-fried water spinach, fried eggplant, fried winter melon, fried pepper, fried tofu with bacon, moldy tofu, six dishes, the plate is very large, and there are a lot of dishes.
The people who resisted the coffin came back, with thick mud on the side of their shoes.Someone invites you to eat, and everyone doesn't care. Serve the meal by yourself, and find a seat where no one is around to sit down and eat.
Li Yinxiu served Xu Jing a meal, and for the first time served him a top-notch bowl, and told him in a low voice, "Pick up your own vegetables and eat as much as you are full, so you won't eat at night."
Xu Jing paused, and picked up the vegetables with long and heavy old wooden chopsticks.
He ate very much this meal, and so did the people at the same table.
When the sun was shining in the afternoon, the people in the house slowly dispersed. Everyone had farm work to do, which delayed most of the day, and they had to go to work in the fields in the afternoon.
A few middle-aged and elderly women stayed behind to wash the dishes and wipe the table, and divided the remaining meals.
Li Yinxiu thought it was unlucky, so he didn't want it, and the others happily went back with their dishes.
Xu Jing followed her all day and had no chance to leave.At dinner, Xu Jing also sat under the eaves, watching the rest of the family having dinner.
Li Yinxiu ate very full at noon, she didn't eat at night, and she didn't feed Xu Jing.While the others were eating, Li Yinxiu was rubbing the rope with rice stalks beside him, and by the way, told the news that he heard at the funeral today.
"Now Guoqing is raising two children by herself, and I don't know how to live in the future." Li Yinxiu sighed, "Poor two children, they are still young, and they have no mother and no grandma."
Liang Guotao said, "After a while, life will go on."
"Oh, it's easy for you to say!" Li Yinxiu showed melancholy, "Today someone gave Guoqing an idea, asking him to find a home for his family, Ah Qing, and send him to someone else's house to raise him. He should relax a bit, but he didn't agree."
"How can you make an appointment so early?" Guo Yingzhen was surprised, "His Ah Qing is not yet 12 years old, right?"
"Set it first, and we won't get married so soon."
Guo Yingzhen disagreed, "If you say you don't want to get married, who knows what the family will think? When you meet a wicked person, you will dare to impregnate someone on the [-]th or [-]th."
Li Yinxiu said casually: "Isn't he not agreeing? You can set up a household at the age of 14, and it's not too early to get married. If you want me to say, you shouldn't send Ah Qing to school. It costs more money to go to school. If Ah Qing doesn't study, Guoqing’s family has enough food to eat, and Xiaying won’t eat those things and eat them to death.”
Liang Guotao frowned slightly, "Mom, don't worry so much about other people's affairs."
Li Yinxiu curled her lips unwillingly, "It's just chatting at home, and I won't talk about it outside."
The whole family eats dinner and washes the dishes and goes to bed early.Xu Jing waited until it was completely dark, slipped out as usual, and listened for a while in front of Liang Guotao and Guo Yingzhen's room.
He usually only listens to the gossip of the couple, and he will leave early when encountering content that is not suitable for children.In just a few days, Xu Jing heard a lot of useful information.
When it was completely dark, Xu Jing called out the watch as usual, and then slipped out quietly.
There are quite a lot of bowls in the cabinets of Liang Guotao's house. He secretly touched a large porcelain bowl, matches, and salt earlier.He can't get other things, and he doesn't want to get them.
It was pitch black outside the house, and Xu Jing ran outside familiarly, and scanned a few eggplants and peppers that could be eaten smoothly.
He is full today, so he doesn't plan to eat any more, he just needs to find Qi Yunzhi's portion.
Walking around the field, Xu Jing, holding a bowl containing peppers and eggplants and a handful of hay, went to the river to find Qi Yunzhi.
He pushed aside the reeds, approached the water, and called in a low voice, "Brother Qi, are you there?"
After shouting, he found the firewood that he had hidden yesterday, and while setting up the firewood, he waited for Qi Yunzhi to appear.
After a while, a handsome man quietly emerged from Hexin.
Xiaobao tugged on her sleeve and acted like a baby, "Grandma, I'm going too."
Li Yinxiu wiped the sweat off his forehead with his rough fingers: "You stay at home and be obedient."
Xiao Bao quit and hugged Li Yinxiu's waist, "No, all the idiots are going, I want to go too!"
"What are you going to do? It's not a good place." Li Yinxiu said without hesitation, and lifted her grandson off her body, "Let your sister cook something delicious for you, and we'll be back after lunch."
Xiaobao Guijing, "Grandma, cook for me, sister won't cook for me."
