Lingzhou.
In the dry climate, there is no wild land full of people. In the sky, geese fly by, bringing a long cry, and then disappear into the dark yellow sunset.
White makeup looks up at the mottled sky and hears someone calling her
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon. You have to wait for me..."
Familiar voice is close at hand, familiar figure seems to be in front of us, white make-up reaches out to the direction of sunset, and sees his fingertips wandering for a long time, but he can't catch anything.
"Nanzheng Nanzheng...... "
Her mouth was twittering unconsciously, and there were tears all over her eyes full of wrinkles. She wanted to stop him, the man who didn't go back, and told him that he couldn't go in this line, he must not go.
"Auntie, Auntie?" Another voice filled in, white make-up trance sense of the world shaking, she looked at the eyes of the gradual collapse of vision, for a while some bleary.
Opening her eyes again, she saw a beautiful young woman's face.
The woman looked at her worried, two willow like eyebrows tightly closed, she asked anxiously: "Auntie, how did you cry and have a nightmare again?"
White makeup slowly got up and looked at the woman in front of her without saying a word. After a while, she asked, "summer and autumn, is your father back?"
Ji Cha's eyes were astringent, his nose was red and he nodded. He got up and helped his old aunt out of bed. As usual, he was patient and pacified: "my father came back a little later and went out again. He said that he would hunt for the tiger for you. He picked the skin of the tiger to make a coat."
On her white makeup face, she could still see the tears, but she could not find the sad trace. She boasted: "your father is the best hunter. In the family, he can hunt tigers alone."
Ji Cha nodded, helped her to the table and asked her to sit down, then brought in and out the prepared food and cloth.
"What time is it?" White makeup asked.
Ji Cha said, "it's time for dinner."
White makeup looked at the table full of vegetables worried: "but your father has not come back, wait for him to come back to eat it."
Jicha's feast never stopped. As it is now, she has to go through it almost every day: "Dad brought dry food and said that we should eat it in the mountains. We should come back late at night. Let's eat it first."
White makeup is not very happy, holding chopsticks and looking at the rice in the bowl.
Ji Cha sits next to her and coaxes carefully: "Mom, if you don't eat, dad will worry."
White make-up this just "hum" sound, carelessly ate two.
In the middle of the meal, she suddenly put down her chopsticks, stared at Ji Cha with puzzled eyes, and asked, "girl, who are you? Why are you in my house?"
Ji Cha looked at her straight, then stood up from the stool and said, "Hello, madam, I'm a new neighbor next door. My elder asked me to say hello."
White make-up is clear, get up, hold Ji Cha's hand: "multi logo girl, new move? Well, the people in our place have the best temperament. You're in a hurry. Have you eaten yet? By the way, I stewed the spareribs this time. Take a bowl back. " Say, shout toward inside room: "summer autumn, go to kitchen to carry a bowl of spareribs."
Finish saying, but did not hear someone in the room to respond.
There is a trace of helplessness on the white makeup face: "this child, I'll go and have a look."
"No more." Ji Cha hurriedly grabbed her and said with a complicated look: "we've already used rice in our family. Don't disturb my wife. If you eat first, I'll go back."
Ji Cha says, go out hard, white make-up can't stay, had to send people to the door, just come back to sit down, take chopsticks, eat one mouthful.
Ji Cha didn't go far, standing by the fence outside the yard, listening to the movement of the house.
Sure enough, after a while, she heard the cry inside: "summer and autumn, summer and Autumn Where has this girl gone to be wild? She has no rules all day. Who dares to marry in the future? "
When Ji Cha heard this, she tentatively walked in from the outside of the house. When she got to the door, she heard her aunt shouting, "you're back at last. It's going to be dark. Where are you going?"
Ji Cha breathed a sigh of relief, walked into the room, and naturally said, "I'll go out and have a walk." Then I looked at the empty dishes on the table and went to the kitchen.
White makeup followed her and nagged, "have you gone to the side camp again? How many times have you told me that it's the place of war. It's all men. It's a girl's house you should go to. If you do that again, when your father comes back, I'll tell him whether he can fight you or not."
Ji Cha listened honestly and washed the dishes in her hands. She knew that her aunt just needed an object to tell, and she didn't need to respond.
Clean the dishes and wipe the table again. The white make-up is not over.
At the end of the day, it's not early for Ji Cha to watch. It's time for the old man to rest and say, "Mom, I have a sweetheart."
It has never been a secret in the family about the cousin and the general of the Liu family. Naturally, Ji Cha knew how impulsive she was to run away with the man, and then gave birth to Liu Wei."Ah?" White makeup stagnated for a while, looking at "daughter".
Ji Cha helped the old man to his couch and said, "it's the side General of the Jingdu side camp. He's a soldier from Lingzhou. He'll go to liaozhou in two days. He's very handsome."
White makeup looks at "daughter" not like joking, straight face: "side will? Beijing official? "
Ji Cha thought of Liu's identity and nodded: "it's a Beijing official, but it's just a little side general, not a senior official."
"No way." White makeup immediately retorted: "from tomorrow, you will be honest at home for me. You are not allowed to go anywhere. Beijing official, you are not timid. You know that people in Kyoto are jackals. You are not going to die!"
Then, there was another nagging. Ji Cha listened quietly. At last, the old man seemed to be tired, tired of eyelids, and then went to sleep.
Ji Cha covers the quilt for it, sits on the wooden chair beside helplessly, sighs sadly: "all these people are old, and they are so repellent to the things of that year. No wonder that at the beginning, my cousin would elope with General Liu But who can think that once you leave, it will be forever, auntie, will you not regret it? That's your only daughter... "
I don't know if I heard her, the white make-up in my sleep, and tears came out from the corner of my eyes.
Ji Cha couldn't help but wipe her eyes. When she fell asleep, she got up and left lightly.
By this time, it was dark. The moon was hanging in the sky. Ji Cha came back to his home. The house was empty. Ji Jin was not there. There was no one who lit a candle.
Light up the hall, and she'll wash.
Just about to go to sleep, but I heard a quick knock outside the door.
She hurried to open the door and looked outside. The aunt who knew each other said hurriedly, "little tea, your aunt has an accident."
Ji Cha was shocked for a moment and asked, "what happened? She fell asleep when I just left..."
"I don't know what happened. The gate of the yard is closed tightly, but there's a lot of noise inside. The people who are close to each other in the family have passed. Hurry up. Your aunt doesn't know anyone, so you and microenterprise can cajole her."
Ji Cha hurriedly put on a dress and ran back without touching the ground.
Just outside my aunt's house, I saw Ji Wei, who was bleary eyed, knocking at the door and shouting: "Mom, I'm your daughter. I'm back. Open the door."
But obviously, people in the house don't eat this set. Since seven days ago, my aunt has stopped using Xiaowei as a cousin.
In my aunt's memory, my cousin seems to have been 16 or 17 years old, and the microenterprise doesn't fit in.
The clang in the room was louder. Many people around the room saw Ji Cha coming. They hurriedly said to her, "I don't know what happened to the old man."
"It was when his fourth uncle knocked on the watch that he heard something moving inside, which shocked everyone."
"Go in and have a look. The old man doesn't know us. We are afraid to scare her."
Ji Cha was about to fly into the wall with a worried "hum" on his face. He looked at the distance, and the patriarch and the two elders came in a hurry.
Ji Cha doesn't know who told the patriarch. Since she was confused, she has to teach every time she sees the patriarch. She doesn't like this person very much. It's just that the patriarch is the same generation of the 16th uncle and the younger generation of the aunt. She can only listen when she is scolded, but she doesn't dare to go out. But forgive me, she still hates this person.
Ji Cha knows that this is because her grandfather was arranged to go to sea by the father of the patriarch, and has not yet returned.
This resentment, my aunt has been hanging on the head of the patriarch's family, so she just can't remember all the people, but she still remember the patriarch's people clearly.
The patriarch obviously didn't want to go in to listen to the old man's tutoring, so when he saw Ji Cha was going to climb over the wall to go in, he told her to be careful and guard the door with other people.
After Ji Cha went in, the first thing she saw was the mess on the floor of the inner hall. She carefully approached the door, lying at the door, looking inside.
At this sight, she saw her aunt's hunched body, searching the cupboard for a round, but she couldn't find anything. In a rage, she lifted the cupboard.
Ji Cha rushes in, stabilizes the cupboard, holds the old man's body, and asks, "what do you want to find, Auntie? What do you want to find? I'll find it for you. Don't hurt yourself."
White make-up didn't even look at Ji Cha, but looked around the room with trembling pupils, and cried crazily: "Nanzheng, where are you Nanzheng...... "
Ji Cha held the old man half in his arms and said, "you are looking for Grandpa. He has gone out to do business. He will come back tomorrow. Don't worry. He will come back tomorrow."
White make-up pushes Ji Cha away, stumbles to the inner room again, sees everything to turn over, looks like to want to demolish the room.
Ji Cha is in such a hurry that she doesn't know what her aunt's state is. This has never happened before. Even if the old man would look for her husband and daughter nervously occasionally, she would never be so stupid as now.
Is it serious again? God, what should I do? Can Ji Jin bring Liu Wei back?
Ji Cha just felt exhausted.
