Xia Fan's eldest aunt, Zhang Xiaohua, was a worker in a cotton mill. She was round and fat, with a high-pitched voice.

There is a rumor in the cotton spinning mill that the chairman of the trade union has three fears: Li Xiaojuan's crying, Wang Xiaona's entanglement, and Zhang Xiaohua's howling are loud.If she howls, no one can suppress her.

Perhaps because of her reputation, there were many people crowded inside and out, so she rushed in first.Xia Fan looked angrily, the person who usually didn't appear once in two months, now not only howled like a piece of meat was missing, but also sobbed twice from time to time, and even became hoarse, which was enough to bluff people.

This is not over yet, Zhang Xiaohua's voice has not gone down, uncle An Qiang took his cousin An Xiaoxia to the stage, two fathers and daughters, uncle An Qiang is less than 40 years old, and he squeezed his face like the mountains and rivers of China Geographically, it was full of dry gullies, but I didn't see a drop of water. When I got behind my aunt, I suddenly stomped my feet and squatted down, sighed, and occasionally howled, "Father, you left without seeing me, but let me How sad it is!"

The cousin over there, An Xiaoxia, was crying so much that she was two years older than Xia Fan. She was in the first year of high school this year and joined the An family. , the whole pair of eyes are as red as peaches, not to mention how filial.

As soon as the family came, it seemed that there was a market in the originally depressed ward, and it suddenly became lively.Quite a few people from other wards stretched their heads out to look, the corridor was crowded, and they were all asking who had the accident.

It is said that enemies are extremely jealous when they meet each other.At this moment, Xia Fan had just experienced his own death and the death of his grandfather. It was the time when he was most angry, and he couldn't help but think of the past.

This was the same family back then, on the day of grandpa's death, they also came crying like this. In front of so many people, the uncle said, Dad, I have to take care of Fanfan for you after you die.My aunt said, I'm sure I'll treat Fanfan the same as Xiaoxia, so don't worry, Dad.

They said it nicely, but in fact, they took the house shared by his mother, and when Xia Fan lived with them, he suffered a lot.Staring at you with white eyes, scolding you in a high voice, those are all minor, the worst thing is that he takes all the leftovers, of course there is no meat.It’s okay to say in winter, at best, it’s better to be buried. If the leftover soup in summer is left for two days, it will have gone rancid, and Xia Fan has a lot of diarrhea.

But in front of people, Zhang Xiaohua said, "Oh, you don't know that kid is greedy and lazy, and secretly read some stinky and shameless pieces of paper. I don't know if he followed his heartless father. We still have Xiaoxia at home." Well, how dare he keep him, but he is a nephew anyway, and he can't be ignored, so he can only let him sleep.

The small room downstairs is a place where other people put sundries, without even a window. In summer, it is sultry like a steamer. Because it is close to the garbage dump, there are constant mosquitoes and flies. In winter, it is cold like an ice cellar. He once picked up It was a broken enamel pot, and I wanted to light some twigs to keep warm, but I almost got smoked to death in it.

At the beginning, some people were dissatisfied with him, pointing their noses and scolding Zhang Xiaohua, but after a long time, who cares about this business?Waiting for him to go out to work, no one said anything.

Thinking of this, Xia Fan's red eyes began to glow fiercely, and he even clenched his hands tightly, wishing he could stretch out his fist at that time.It's just that he is still a little calm, thinking that grandpa passed away today, so he can't ruin the cleanliness behind his grandfather because of this, so he can only endure it first.It's just that this is really too difficult for a person who has lived in hatred for six years, because holding his breath, he seems to be trembling when others watch him.

The fat aunt over there thought that he was feeling stupid, so she hugged him from behind and comforted him softly, "Fanfan, don't be sad, you are getting older, you have to take care of yourself, don't let your grandpa go worrying."

Only then did Xia Fan slowly slow down his body, and gradually his breathing became smoother.

When a person dies in the ward, there is always a place to go, and the place cannot be occupied all the time.The head nurse over there was afraid that the sound of crying had weakened, so she finally squeezed in, patted An Qiang on the shoulder, and asked, "Who is in charge of you? When the old man is gone, there must be a charter. The hospital morgue, or do you carry it back to the funeral yourself?"

An Qiang squatted on the ground and raised his head, frowning and replied, "Of course it is carried back, why not sit at home."

The head nurse over there obviously has experience, nodded and said, "Okay, you should settle the expenses first, and then find someone to take it back quickly, and change your clothes while the person is still warm, otherwise you will be stiff later gone."

An Qiang was just about to agree, but An Xiaoxia who was at the side secretly pulled her mother's sleeve, and Zhang Xiaohua, who was howling in a low voice, suddenly stopped like a chicken with a neck stuck, and stared at her with bewildered eyes. The girl seemed to think of something, and asked An Qiang, "Why bring it home? Our father has already gone, so how can we make such a fuss? Just here, let Xia Fan bring the shroud, and I will change it for our father." superior."

Even though cremation has become popular at this time, it is still important to leave the funeral at home. As a son, An Qiang certainly can't let people pick this reason, and immediately said, "This matter can't be changed, send it at home."

Zhang Xiaohua over there suddenly changed his face, and asked in a rough voice, "What did you say? Can you say it again?"

As soon as her voice came out, An Qiang deflated like a balloon that had been poked with a needle.He raised his head and wanted to argue with Zhang Xiaohua, but he didn't dare to let others hear, so he said to the head nurse, "Wait a minute, let's discuss it." After speaking, he dragged Zhang Xiaohua to a corner, and before Zhang Xiaohua left, She winked at An Xiaoxia.

As expected, An Xiaoxia came to Xia Fan's side, sniffled and said to Xia Fan, "Fanfan, don't be sad, without grandpa, my parents and I will treat you well. From now on, we will live together and become a family."

Xia Fan sneered in his heart, is this the beginning?Thanks to the whole family, they have the nerve to speak out.He didn't want to make a fuss today, which doesn't mean he was extremely tolerant. He stretched out his hand and took the handkerchief from An Xiaoxia's hand. Before An Xiaoxia could react, she turned around and approached Fat Aunt, wiping her tears and said, "Fat Aunt, you Don't cry, wipe your tears."

As soon as the handkerchief was handed out, An Xiaoxia let out an exclamation. Immediately afterwards, the fat aunt sneezed again and again. She was always straight-hearted, and scolded directly, "Oh my mother, who the hell touched it on the handkerchief?" Ginger water, it’s killing me.”

The movement was not small, and suddenly many people looked here, just looking at Xia Fan standing there innocently, with an aggrieved look, "Miss Xia, why are you rubbing ginger water on the handkerchief? What a pain in the eyes!"

He pretended to be stupid, but others were not stupid. His grandfather passed away, not to mention his sadness, but he still had time to wipe things on the handkerchief. What kind of child could do this, and his eyes immediately became sharp.

An Xiaoxia is only 17 years old now, and it is the time when her skin is thin. Although she is usually powerful, but at this time without Zhang Xiaohua's backing, her eyes are really red, and she is at Xia Fan for a long time, but Xia Fan With an innocent look, he didn't even mean to make an apology to smooth things over. He was ashamed and angry at the same time, and finally left the sentence "you wait", and ran directly to the place where his mother and father were talking.

Xia Fan watched her run away, feeling extremely satisfied in his heart.Of course he knew why Zhang Xiaohua was not allowed to send a funeral at home. Back then, because his grandfather’s body was left in the room, his cousin An Xiaoxia cried and shouted not to stay, and his aunt also despised the bad luck, saying something, "Damn old man, die!" It's also a hindrance."

Now that he didn't die at home, Zhang Xiaohua was looking forward to the two-bedroom house, how could he let his grandfather go back to mourn.It's just that the couple went to the stairs to talk after leaving the door, and there was a door blocking it, so it was inconvenient for him to bring people there to listen. Fortunately, An Xiaoxia still loved to complain as always, so he found a chance.

Xia Fan immediately pulled Aunt Fat, pretending to be worried, "Is Miss Xia mad at me, Aunt Fat, please accompany me to have a look."

The fat aunt was rubbing her eyes. She usually looked down on An Qiang's family, and this time she didn't like An Xiaoxia even more. But looking at Xia Fan's pitiful look and thinking about Uncle An's departure, Xia Fan was afraid He wanted to live on Anqiang, so he sighed and agreed, thinking that he would be a peacemaker at that time, and don't let Zhang Xiaohua's narrow-minded mind remember Xia Fan's grudge.

The two walked to the entrance of the corridor. Although the door was closed, it couldn't block the voices inside, and just heard An Xiaoxia mutter, "Dad, why didn't you agree? If Grandpa goes back to mourn, how can people live in that house? I don't want it, I'm afraid to think about it. Also, Mom, I don't live with Xia Fan, I hate him."

Xia Fan immediately stood on his feet, and the fat aunt took his hand and clenched it tightly, and Zhang Xiaohua continued to say, "Did you hear what our daughter said? Your father is more important than your daughter? She is in high school. , How important it is, if the family releases the dead, it will be unlucky, what if the college entrance examination fails? Think about it yourself."

Without waiting for An Qiang to respond, she turned back to comfort An Xiaoxia, "Don't worry, my good girl, why would Mom let you live with him? When you move into your grandpa's house, you will have your own room. You don't like to be broken?" Flower curtains? Make one for you too."

An Xiaoxia seemed uneasy, and immediately asked, "It's so inconvenient to let him live in the living room."

Zhang Xiaohua obviously loved her so much on weekdays, he said, "Let him live in a small room, so he won't bother you."

As soon as the words fell, the door was kicked open with a slam, and the fat aunt took Xia Fan to stare at the three of them and cursed, "You unconscionable shit, Uncle An's body hasn't cooled down yet, you just despise him like that , just plan Fanfan like this?"
