Light Yu · I have a little sun

After hanging up the phone, Yin Guoqiang returned to the hall and said to the family of the perpetrator: "Well, I will think about the compensation you mentioned. Now my wife means to let the parents of the child go to the ground first, so it will be good for the child. Alright, let’s discuss the rest of the issues later.”

"Okay, okay, then let's leave a contact information first, and hope that you and your family can accept our apology. Now we really should mourn the deceased and let the child's life get back on track as soon as possible."

"Okay, let's get back in touch then." After Yin Guoqiang exchanged phone numbers with the other party, he rushed to the funeral parlor.

By the time Yin Guoqiang and the others returned to Caodeng Village with the bodies of Jiang Li and his wife, it was already late, and the villagers who were supposed to go to bed early due to the cold weather were chatting around the village without worrying about the severe cold.

"It's said that good people don't live long, and it's true."

"Yeah, the couple are nice, I remember they were quite young, right?"

"Young, probably less than 40 years old. Life is getting better and better these days. There is no problem at all if you live to 70 without illness or disaster."

"Yeah, I remember that Jiang Li was in the same year as me, and both belonged to the dragon. He was 36 years old. In his birth year, he died young."

"There is a car coming, they must be back, everyone, give way."

Yin Guoqiang's elder brother received the call early, and the mourning hall had already been set up. The funeral home's car drove Jiang Li and his wife all the way to the door. Most people from the village followed and gathered around the door of Jiang Can's house.

I saw Jiang Yucui got out of the car crying, yelling: "My dear brother, I will take you home!"

Jiang Can was dragged into Jiang Yucui's hand, and Gu Yu looked at Jiang Can with red and swollen eyes through the crowd, like a marionette who had already shed tears, staring blankly at his parents who were carried out of the car.

"Oh, what will this child do in the future!" A woman in the crowd held a little girl who was as old as Jiang Can, and looked at Jiang Can sympathetically.

"Isn't there Jiang Yucui here? My aunt! Can I still bear the guilt?"

"What's wrong with my aunt? My children have grown up so much, and I haven't seen my eldest sister buy a floral dress!" The woman glanced at the person who just answered the call, and rolled her eyes.

"You don't understand this, do you? I just heard someone say that I lost a lot of money!" The person who spoke raised his eyebrows, with a smile that was not a smile, and he had an expression that everyone understood.

"What? You mean that Jiang Yucui went for... this?" The woman asked gossipingly, making a gesture of some money.

"Huh? I didn't say anything!"

"Hey! I'm just so pitiful for the child, she's still so young." When the woman heard that the other party didn't want to say more, she also changed the topic and put on a distressed face.

"Yeah, I heard that this child is here..." The speaker pointed to his head and continued: "It's not working, and I don't know if my parents are dead."

"I've also heard that Chu Hongmei quarreled with Zhang's daughter-in-law because of this matter before, don't let anyone tell me!"

"No wonder, look at that child, he didn't even cry, hey, he didn't even cry, what's the use of having such a child?" The woman changed her face quickly, and immediately changed into a look of accusation and disgust.

"Yeah, I heard that Chu Hongmei went to the hospital for check-ups every month. I think it's because the previous child has a brain problem, so I'm worried that the next child will also have problems. That's why I always go to the hospital." The voice said so.

"I also heard that Chu Hongmei was supposed to go to the hospital in the morning, but today, during the winter solstice, she made dumplings for the child at home and went late. If you said it wasn't for such a delay, maybe she wouldn't have met her." Such a thing!"

"Really? Whoops! What a broom star!"

Jiang Can listened to the noisy voice in his ears, and his originally dull expression seemed to change suddenly, his pupils were slightly dilated, and his empty eyes showed an expression of self-blame or regret that he couldn't tell.

Jiang Can's dry eyes seemed to be shedding tears again, and just as the cold cheeks felt a tinge of heat, the cold wind blew past, and there was only a piece of ice left, just like her heart, and she only murmured: "I didn't If you encounter it, it’s all my fault, it shouldn’t be like this, it’s my fault, it shouldn’t have happened.”

At this time, no one heard Jiang Can's hoarse voice, and no one cared about her thoughts.Not even Jiang Yucui standing beside Jiang Can, only Gu Yu looked at Jiang Can with distress.

And around you, your conversation with me sentence by sentence did not stop because of Jiang Can's crying.

"Hey, from what you said, doesn't that mean that this child killed his parents?"

"I saw Chu Hongmei's belly before. It was so big and pointed. It looked like a baby boy. It's a pity that the broom star killed her parents and her younger brother."

"I heard that Jiang Can was born on Ghost Festival. It's bad luck. The whole family was killed. I have to keep my children away from her in the future."

Gu Yu looked at Jiang Can, the little girl who was originally energetic like the sun seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds at this moment, leaving only a dim appearance, Gu Yu touched her chest, sour, wishing she could Go forward and block the mouths of those around you.

"Ayu, go back, Cancan doesn't have the energy to talk to you now, wait until tomorrow, you take some time to comfort her, and take care of her more in the future." Grandma Gu pulled Gu Yu out of the crowd.

"Grandma, how can they talk like that. Grandma, I'm going to stop them and tell them that people born on July [-] will not bring bad luck. Grandma clearly said that it is an auspicious month!" Gu Yu wanted to break away from grandma hand, rushing in the direction of the crowd.

"Ayu, people only want to believe what they want to believe, and they won't listen to our excuses." Grandma Gu looked towards the mourning hall through the crowd.

"Besides, they were just talking in low voices, and if we talk about it, it will turn into a quarrel. Forget it, let Hongmei be quiet for a while. When she is still alive, the last thing she wants to talk to these people is. Let's go, accompany Grandma is going home."

Grandma Gu glanced at Chu Hongmei for the last time, remembering that she was always quiet and gentle, without arguing or arguing, she didn't say anything, walked back to her yard with her back bent, and said to herself: "Old man, what do you say about me?" This old woman is still panting, Hongmei is such a good girl, she will be gone after all, hey!"

Gu Yu took a deep look at Jiang Can, and finally followed Grandma Gu to the house.

Yes, people only want to believe what they believe, just like Gu Yu believes that July is an auspicious month, and everyone only believes that Jiang Can, who was born on July [-], will bring bad luck. If Li and his wife had gone out earlier, they would definitely not encounter disaster.

Jiang Can seemed to feel something, like a puppet suddenly stuck, his body paused for just a moment, and then he continued to follow Jiang Yucui.

The night was getting darker, and everyone dispersed one after another. There were only a few scattered people left at the door of Jiang Can's house. I can't figure out how to say that the home that was happy in the morning is gone.

Yin Guoqiang and others outside the shed were wrapped in cotton clothes and discussing in the cold wind.

"Brother, Yucui and I are busy these days, so Yaoyao will stay at your house first." Yin Guoqiang said to a middle-aged man with a similar appearance.

"It's no problem, Yaoyao is at my house, don't worry." The middle-aged man nodded, and then said: "That's right, you plan to stop for a few days? And what are you going to do with the child in the future?"

"Two days, cremation after two days, then choose a good day for burial, and be buried as soon as possible." Yin Guoqiang thought for a while and said: "As for the child, he must follow us, and he is the last relative of Yucui's mother's side , will not treat her badly."

"Well, you're right to do this, otherwise the village would be gossiping again."

Yin Guoqiang glanced at Jiang Can who was in a daze in the mourning hall, and he didn't avoid it. He said to Jiang Yucui, "How did you think about what I told you on the phone?"

Before Jiang Yucui could speak, Yin Guoqiang's elder brother Yin Guofu answered, "What's the matter?"

"It's about compensation."

"How much can I pay for this? I heard that an old man in our neighboring village was hit and killed by a car, and he only paid 6 yuan in the end. Hey, human life is worthless, and 6 yuan is enough to buy his life." Yin Guoqiang's brother Said intentionally.

"That's not true. This family looks like a rich family. They said that they can pay more than 50 yuan. They just want us to sign a letter of understanding."

"So much? How much does your wood board factory pay a year? Have you signed the contract? When will you get the money?" Yin Guofu opened his mouth wide in surprise, and then asked a series of questions.

"It hasn't been signed yet. Yu Cui said that he will consider it." Yin Guoqiang and his brother looked at each other realistically, and then looked at Jiang Yu Cui at the same time.

"Then why are you thinking about it?" Yin Guofu persuaded, "Big sister, I'm not talking about you. In this society, shit is unpalatable and money is hard to earn! Let's just say that when your brother was alive, I heard that he was in Do you work as a supervisor in an electronics factory? You don’t earn much money a year, right? Now that the offer is so good, what are you waiting for if you don’t sign it?”

"Not only that, they also said that they would pay Jiang Can to go to college, and all the tuition fees and daily expenses will be reimbursed!" Yin Guoqiang also persuaded: "If you want me to say, I should agree for Jiang Can's sake. Brother, you say yes. Bar?"

"Yeah, other people in the village don't know about it. We are all relatives and we don't know about it. When Hongmei gave birth to Jiang Can, she had a difficult delivery and held the child back. It's good to have a low IQ. Didn't the doctor say at the time that if If it takes a little longer, that child may be mentally retarded." Yin Guofu immediately followed up after receiving his younger brother's wink.

"Now, to put it bluntly, even though Jiang Li and his wife have gone, the party who caused the accident compensated so much money and made offerings to Jiang Can. This is already a high incense. I think you should sign and agree quickly. Don't go back on your word at that time. gone."

When Jiang Yucui heard that the other party might go back on his word, he was a little anxious. When he first heard that he was going to sign to forgive the other party, he was really angry. At that time, he was shaken by a few words from Yin Guoqiang, and now he heard what the child's uncle said. These words, immediately agreed: "Okay, I will sign, this is also for the good of Cancan, I will sign."

Seeing that Jiang Yucui finally let go, Yin Guoqiang and his brother looked at each other, and both heaved a sigh of relief.

"Big sister, I'll discuss something with Guoqiang. You can go to the mourning hall to accompany the child, and it's getting late, or take her to sleep."

"What is this to discuss? Do you still need to avoid me?" Jiang Yucui said half-truthfully.

"Where is it? Just discuss something with Guoqiang. Isn't your eldest nephew getting married?"

"I know, brother, you guys are discussing, I'll go and see Cancan."

Seeing Jiang Yucui walking in front of Jiang Can, who seemed to be talking to the child, Yin Guoqiang looked away.

"Brother, where should we go?" Yin Guoqiang pointed to the vicinity of Jiang Can's vegetable garden, motioning for him to follow.Yin Guoqiang thought: Since the eldest brother doesn't say it in front of Yucui, he must avoid people.

The two walked silently into the darkness some distance away from the mourning hall.
