In the evening after the college entrance examination, Amin hurriedly took the bus to home.
In the car, Amin finally calmed his thoughts. I did a good job in this exam, and there was no problem with the last one. Thinking about the hardships that I have paid for ten years, the parents and sisters at home also gritted their teeth and gave their full support; especially the sister Aqin, who took the initiative to drop out of school to help her parents take care of the farm work, which made Aming feel very ashamed of her. Now that the parents are old, if they can successfully enter a better university, it can be regarded as a kind of comfort and reward for them.
As the bus slowly approached the temporary stop closest to the village, Amin’s mood began to become excited again. He had not seen his family for more than three months. Amin has an urge to cry.
The familiar village caught Amin’s sight, and Amin stood up. The driver stopped the car, and Amin stepped down. After traveling several hundred meters along the village road, Amin could already see his home. To Aming’s surprise, he vaguely saw his parents and Aqin on the ridge, watching them quietly.
The sky is already dark, and you can get home after a short walk. Amin’s heart began to “boom”.
Near, near. Amin saw his parents’ ragged clothes and Aqin’s long braids.
“Abba, Ama, Xiaoqin, I’m back–” Aming shouted as he ran. Father and mother stood side by side, still standing quietly, as if waiting for Amin to pass quickly. A Ming was a little surprised, how could even the lively Aqin today be as quiet as a lady.
At this moment, a black-faced man suddenly appeared and blocked Amin’s path: “Where are you going? Amin.”
Amin stood still and took a look, and hurriedly called: “Uncle, why are you here? I’ve finished the exam.” Uncle stopped Amin: “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, come to my house, your aunt The meal is ready.” Amin looked at his uncle in confusion. “Go, what are you doing?” Uncle stared.
A breath of alcohol rushed over his face, and it was obvious that the uncle was drunk and still hadn’t woke up. “I want to go home.” Amin pushed away his uncle’s hand and ran towards his parents.
“Come back! Where are you going?” Uncle shouted eagerly. Amin ignored his uncle at all and greeted his parents.
“Abba, Ama, Xiaoqin, I have passed the exam.” Amin said excitedly when he came to his parents.
“Okay. Let’s go home.” His father’s face was a little gloomy, and there was no smile, which made Aming very strange. Father turned around, mother and Aqin followed, walking back together. Amin scratched his head in confusion. What’s wrong with his mother? He didn’t even say hello, and there was no smile or joy on his face. AhThe hand who wanted to play Aqin didn’t expect Aqin to twist his body and flicker and ran to the front. Aming had to follow them, guessing as he walked: “What happened to the house?” Thinking of the behavior of his uncle just now, Aming was a little uneasy.

A Ming and his parents took a short walk without saying a word. Suddenly, the depressed Amin realized that he had gone the wrong way. His home should be in the east. How can he go south now?
A Ming hurriedly stopped his parents: “Are we going wrong?” Father looked at A Ming, his eyes filled with gloomy expressions: “No mistake, we moved.” As he said, his father pushed Amin away and continued on.
A Ming was stunned: Why are his father’s hands so cold? Is it sick? A Ming stretched out his hand to pull his mother’s hand, his mother barely smiled, hurriedly walked around A Ming and followed his father. Amin’s back is cold: Is this still his kind mother?
Seeing that the sky was completely dark, Amin had to walk forward with his parents, but Aqin didn’t know when he was gone.
After about a few hundred meters, he came to a bush, and his father turned to Amin and said, “Here. A Ming looked around, and it was greyish, somewhat like the wilderness. Although it was early summer, Amin still felt a little chilly.
Father and mother have entered a low house covered by trees. Only then did Amin come back to his senses and start to look at this new home. It is said that it is a new home, but it is actually a rough house. There are three rooms in total. The surroundings are empty. The walls have not even been painted, revealing muddy concrete. The room was small, dim and damp, and had a musty smell.
A Ming stood at the door, and immediately there was a chilly wind, blowing the trees. A Ming felt a chill in his neck, and he couldn’t help but shiver.
The mother nodded to Aming, and Aming entered the house. Mother went to the west room without saying a word. Aming couldn’t help it anymore: “A dad, why did you move to this place, it’s damp and dirty. The original house was not very good? What happened at home?”
Amin had a premonition, but his father still bowed his head and didn’t answer. (Uncle Ghost: http://www.guidaye.com/ please keep the reprint!)

A Ming came to his mother’s room by the dim candlelight . Mother was cooking with her head down, her face looked very obscure. Amin noticed that his mother’s hands were dirty, and many places were cut and bloody.
“Ama, you wrap your hands.” A Ming said distressedly. “You have something to eat. Reading is a hard work.” Mother handed over a bowl of dark stuff. Not here yet, ahMing smelled a bad smell. A Ming could no longer control himself, so he ran to the easternmost room and pushed the door to find Aqin.
Push open the door of Aqin’s room. “Ah—” Aming screamed suddenly. A Ming saw Aqin staring at him blankly, his eyes lifeless. There were several wounds of different sizes on the originally fair face, and they were still dripping with pus.
“Oh–” With a scream, Amin rushed out of the room and ran outside.
“Stop him!” his father yelled, his voice sad and terrifying, and a weird smile appeared on his face. Amin’s feet seemed to be caught by something, and he could no longer step out. A Ming turned and looked at him, where there were the shadows of his parents and Aqin. Instead, a few eerie ghosts were slowly approaching him!
Amin sat weakly on the ground, watching the sharp claws close to his chest. Amin closed his eyes and tears couldn’t help streaming.
“Abba, grandma, where are you?” Amin couldn’t help shouting loudly.
“Don’t panic! Amin–” shouted. Aming opened his eyes and saw his uncle holding a sickle in front of him. Uncle brandished his sickle and dangling towards the ghost.
However, it didn’t take long before my uncle was caught and wounded all over. Amidst the weird calls, the uncle couldn’t hold on. “Hurry up!” The uncle roared and pushed A Ming out the door.
A Ming ran out of the room, and there was pitch darkness in front of him. Regardless of the direction, he ran forward desperately. A staggered, Amin fainted unexpectedly.
When Amin woke up, he found himself in the hospital. After seeing the aunt next to him, he quickly poured water for Amin.
Although Amin is a little confused, he can still vaguely remember what happened yesterday. During Amin’s questioning, the aunt cried and told what had happened to Amin’s house.
It turned out that one month before Amin’s college entrance examination, a gas leak occurred in his home, and Amin’s parents and Aqin were killed. Later, the police found out that the cause of the accident was that the uncle forgot to turn off the gas valve after helping to cook the vegetables. In order not to affect Amin’s college entrance examination, everyone kept the secret from Amin.
“Your uncle harmed others and yourself, and he was poisoned, too. Last night passed.” Aunt said crying.
“My father and mother also have a violin. They miss me. They want to take me along.” A Ming murmured.
One night in mid-August, Amin came to Thorns Hill where his family’s ashes were buried and cremated the admission letter. From now on, the neighbors, including Aunt Amin, never saw Amin again.
