That day, I sat at my desk and read a book called "Missing the Wolf", which told the story of how people killed wolves, how wolves preyed on people, and how wolves finally became people. Suddenly I got a call from my father, saying that my elder sister-in-law was critically ill and asked me to go at once. Sure enough, I went there in less than half an hour and my elder sister-in-law went there. The body was parked in the yard, and the whole yard was covered with canvas, which was regarded as a spirit shed. We juniors stayed by my aunt's coffin until the next day.
Like my cousins, I knelt beside my aunt and kept burning paper money as a wake for her.
Sister-in-law * * has seven children, and I survived by eating her milk. After my mother gave birth to the baby, I went to the hospital and stayed there for a month. My elder sister-in-law happened to have a second cousin who was one month older than me, and I became another parasite in her arms. According to my mother, my elder sister-in-law fed my cousin first, and my second cousin didn't have enough to eat. She always cried all day until her mother was discharged from the hospital and took me home.
My sister-in-law has worked hard all her life, and my uncle is a gambler. 10 years ago, after her death, she still owed more than 2,000 yuan, which she paid back bit by bit by growing vegetables. Seven children live in poverty, too. Big cousin is an unformed carpenter. Big cousin lives by growing vegetables like an elder sister.
Second cousin also uses it every year, and has no money. My second cousin has two children, and life is getting tighter every year. The third cousin is well-off and has done a lot of filial piety. During her two years in bed, the third cousin always came the most, washed her clothes and bedding in time, and bought her some snacks. Until her death, there were cakes and fruits left in the cupboard.
One thing that bothers me the most is a packet of rock sugar turned out under menstruation's pillow. I bought it a week before my aunt died. I sit on my elder sister's head. I asked my elder sister-in-law if she wanted to eat a piece. My sister nodded twice, so I opened the bag, took out a piece and carefully put it in her mouth.
Sister-in-law looked up at me, speechless, but tears flowed down from the corner of her eyes and landed on the pillow. I gently wiped my tears for my sister-in-law, and put the rock candy under my pillow, thinking that even if no one around me wanted to eat it, I could get it myself. Who knows that after I left, no one knows that my aunt's hands can't move at all. I heard that my elder sister-in-law wanted to eat that rock candy, so I bought it.
My life is full of my elder sister's blood. How can I live without my elder sister-in-law, who only eats two small pieces of rock sugar all her life? What an unfair deal? Elder sister-in-law is very satisfied. Think about what an immoral person I am.
The next morning, accompanied by the footsteps of the newborn sun and bursts of crying, my aunt was pulled to the grave of my uncle in the south of the village by the four-wheeled cart of my fifth cousin. Buried and buried, the sky suddenly began to snow. I knelt in front of the grave like my cousin and let the snow fall on us silently. This is the first snow in the new century. It came so early, so light, so white, like countless flowers flying all over the sky. I know it's my aunt's restless soul looking for a good resting place.
When we stand up, we can't see the road, the mountain is white, the dam is white, and the whole earth floats around like a blank sheet of paper. In the center of this piece of white paper, menstruation's new home is filled with "flowers".
My elder sister-in-law is gone, and I know I will never have a chance to do anything for her again. Since the death of my elder sister-in-law, I haven't shed a tear, and my sense of guilt towards my elder sister-in-law is getting weaker and weaker. It was not until I finished "Missing the Wolf" that I suddenly became afraid. Am I a wolf, too? People become wolves more vicious than wolves.
In order to prove whether I turned into a wolf or not, I dared to ask the neighbor's judge. The judge looks fierce and has big and long teeth. When he saw me, he screamed, "Are you crazy?" You are a wolf. What am I? "I was frightened, so I ran home and prayed for my aunt with my little conscience:" The wolf is coming! Don't eat the dead! "
