Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 5004 What is that?
Mrs. Sun simply baked some cakes with eggs, wheat flour and a few scallions in the kitchen and served them out. The three of them filled their stomachs with these cakes.

"I'll go home later, you stay and stay with Duo'er well, the Xiang family is so noisy these two days that they definitely won't be able to spare any manpower to take care of her twin body."

When Yang Huazhong left, he did not forget to tell Mrs. Sun.

Mrs. Sun sent him to the gate of the yard, "Don't worry, I will stay with Duo'er every step of the way at Xiang's mourning hall, but Hua'er and Feng'er at home, you let them live in my sister for two days. There are so many people there.”

After sending Yang Huazhong away, Mrs. Sun and Xiaoduo rested for a while, then locked the door and went to the second bedroom of Xiang's family to continue the vigil.

Because it was Katsuo and his uncle's two cousins ​​who stayed at the wake last night, and his sister-in-law and children stayed at home.

But today during the day, my sister-in-law and the children came over, and in the evening, my sister-in-law had to take the children back, and the cousins ​​had to send them off, so tonight, the second room of Xiang's family left behind Shengnan's parents and the uncle of the cattle dealer. And Katsuo's two uncles and two aunts.

After dinner, tung oil lamps and white candles were lit in the mourning hall. At first, Shengnan's two uncles discussed with Shengnan's father and the cattle dealer at the table in the main room about the funeral ceremony tomorrow morning.

In the mourning hall next door, two aunts were also accompanying Mrs. Sheng Nan, but after a while, one of the uncles got drunk at dinner and slanted into Sheng Nan's father's room and snored everywhere.

Another uncle sat in the main room and dozed off.

Sheng Nan's father and the cattle dealer continued to discuss tomorrow's affairs. Sheng Nan's father was so sad that his voice was hoarse. The cattle dealer felt sorry for his brother, so he had to persuade him to go back to the house and lie down for a while.

When it was approaching the time of childbirth, Mrs. Sheng felt dizzy, and the two aunts also fell asleep again and again. They persuaded Mrs. Sheng to go back to another room, and never came out again.

In this way, when the night vigil officially started, only Katsuo and Xiaoduo were left in the mourning hall, and Mrs. Sun who was by Xiaoduo's side.

Sheng Nan was dressed in hemp and mourning, and stood by the brazier, burning a few pieces of incense paper into the brazier every once in a while.

It is a rule handed down by the older generation that after a person dies, only the joss paper burned in front of him during the rest period can be truly converted into ghost money and fall into the hands of the deceased, so burn more, and the fire can not be broken.

So Katsuo burned very diligently. My brother had never enjoyed a blessing in his lifetime. I hope that when he gets to the bottom, he will have a lot of money and live a good life by then!
As a result, the small mourning hall was smoky and smoky, and Xiaoduo couldn't help coughing a few times because of the choking.

Mrs. Sun was very sleepy for a long time, her eyelids were fighting all the time, and she woke up immediately when she heard Xiaoduo's cough.

"What's the matter with you, Duo'er? Is it cold? Come on, cover yourself with this cloak."

Sun took out the cloak prepared in advance to cover Xiaoduo, Xiaoduo waved her hand: "Mother, I'm not cold, but I feel a little uncomfortable because of the smell of smoke."

This made Mrs. Sun into a difficult situation. Isn't the mourning hall like this? It is impossible not to burn incense paper...

"Duo'er, go to the main room to get some fresh air!"

Xiang Shengnan raised his head and looked at Xiaoduo with worry on his face.

Looking at his bloodshot eyes, Xiaoduo felt distressed, and couldn't bear to leave him alone in the mourning hall.

"It's okay, I can bear it."

"Duo'er, you go to the main room for a rest, I'm here to be a companion for Sheng Nan."

The voice of the cattle dealer suddenly sounded, and people also entered the mourning hall.

Xiaoduo was still hesitating, but Mrs. Sun had already said: "It's great that Brother Xiang is here, Duo'er, come on, mother will accompany you to the main room to get some fresh air. You are twins now, so you can't bear it."

Xiaoduo has been sitting here without moving, and she really feels uncomfortable all over, so she went out of the room with Mrs. Sun and came to the main room.

Sitting at the table for a while, the main room was filled with the smell of wine, and the smell left by the men smoking. The table was a mess, and the bones and fish bones that had been vomited from the previous meal were not cleaned up.

The soup and water spilled by the children, the spilled tea sticky with a few pieces of fragrant paper, and there is no place for her feet to rest. Xiaoduo was in the early stages of her pregnancy, when she was suffering from sickness, her stomach churns when she saw these things , He frowned in pain.

"Mother, I want to go to the yard to get some air." Xiaoduo said to Sun.

Mrs. Sun glanced at the pitch-black outside, "It's the middle of the night, and you are double-bodied and have low temper, it's better to stay indoors..."

Xiaoduo covered her mouth, as if she wanted to vomit.

Mrs. Sun had no choice but to come and support her: "Then let's stand at the door of the house for a while, and we can't go anywhere else, not even the gate of the courtyard!"

Xiaoduo nodded, and the mother and daughter came to the door of the house.

When the fresh night wind blew over, Xiaoduo felt as if she had come alive, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Although Sun also felt that it was more comfortable outside than inside, she didn't dare to take it lightly, and stood beside Xiaoduo nervously.

Before standing for a while, Mrs. Sun urged Xiaoduo to go back to the house.

Xiaoduo took Sun's hand and begged in a low voice: "Mother, stop a little longer, listen, the uncle in the next room is still snoring, it's okay."

Sun pursed her lips and had to follow Xiaoduo and stand for a while longer.

Suddenly, a strange feeling came from somewhere behind him.

Subconsciously, Sun glanced over there, and saw a black shadow standing in the passage between the courtyard wall and the kitchen.

At first glance, Mrs. Sun thought there was some kind of hoe and pole or something there, but when she looked again, the black shadow suddenly disappeared.

How can a hoe and pole be so thick?
Looking at the black shadow, it seems that a person is standing there upright.

But in the middle of the night, everyone in the Xiang family's front house and backyard is already in this room, who would go to that station when they are full?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Sun couldn't help shivering, the hairs all over her body stood on end.

"It's cold outside, let's go inside!"

She couldn't help but pull up Xiaoduo and went back to the main room. Seeing the uncle who was dozing off on the table, Mrs. Sun was a little better, but the heart was still beating in his chest, like a drum .

The cattle dealer came out of the mourning hall, followed by Sheng Nan.

"Mother-in-law, I just discussed with Sheng Nan, I will stay here and let him send Duo'er and you home to rest first."

Go home and rest?

Of course Xiaoduo wanted to go back to rest, but she couldn't bear to let Xiang Shengnan carry it alone.

"Uncle, I'm not tired, I'll stay." Xiaoduo said.

Xiang Shengnan looked distressed: "Duo'er, you are pregnant, so you can't be tired. Listen to uncle. Besides, if you don't go back to rest, your mother-in-law can't rest either..."

Hearing this, Xiaoduo turned her head and glanced at Mrs. Sun beside her, whose face was a little pale and whose fingertips were still cold, and hesitated.

At the other time, Mrs. Sun would definitely follow and persuade Xiaoduo to go back to rest, but at this moment, Mrs. Sun actually said: "Since Duo'er said she can carry it, let's keep it all. I brought the cloak and come here later. Duo'er If you’re sleepy, just lie down and doze off in your cloak.”

Mrs. Sun didn't dare to go out, who knew what that black shadow outside was.

If they follow them to Duo'er's house at the entrance of the village later, when the time comes, Sheng Nan and the cattle dealers will stay here, and the two of them don't know what to do, it's better to stay here!
