One day in December 2013, it was cloudy and cold.
It was Saturday and I slept until 8:30 in the morning. Have breakfast in the cafeteria at noon, and lunch together.
Back to the dormitory, a classmate said that he wanted to go to “Blue Sky” to buy some things, so he went with him.
When walking out of West Second Road, when you want to cross the road. I heard strange music faintly, and after a while I saw several cars with wreaths driving towards Jinniushan Park. One of the cars was covered by a white cloth with a coffin. There were a few people with musical instruments in the car at the end, and they must have made the strange sound.
“Damn, unfortunate!” the classmate cursed.
I suddenly felt a little dizzy. I wonder if it was because of too much sleep. However, when I saw the coffin covered with white cloth just now, my heart jumped sharply. How did it happen? It seems to be seen somewhere, so familiar, how could it happen?
At this time, a cold wind blows, and my heart is cold and instigated. There was nothing to buy, so I told my classmates that I didn’t want to go to the “blue sky”. The classmate looked at me in surprise.
“What’s wrong? Uncomfortable? Frightened by that stuff?”
“Why? It may be because I slept too much yesterday. My head is a little dizzy, I don’t want to go anymore, go by yourself.”
The classmates have no choice but to go to the “blue sky” alone. I walked to the dormitory. On the way, it was weird. I always felt that the coffin was too strange. Moreover, when the car passed me, it seemed that someone was calling me, with a very kind voice, who resembled it? Can’t remember it for a while.
Going back to the dormitory and surfing the internet for a while, I feel bored, so I ran to sleep again. When I woke up, it was more than 4 pm. After thinking for a long time and not knowing what to do, he decided to go to the South Gate for a haircut. After finishing my hair, the wind blew, my head was cold. Riding my broken bicycle, around the broken football stadium, and walked towards the courtyard. When passing by the electrical department building…
I found a few cars parked there, with red paper and red cloth strips on the front of them. Look at no one. I found that it seemed like the school bus was in the middle. Looking at this kind of stance, wouldn’t it be that another great god has died? The last car was open, with a few wreaths hanging on it. Seeing this scene, I ran quickly. When I looked back, I found that there was a coffin on the car. It was exactly the same as the one I saw at noon…
Damn, how could I be so unlucky today and hit several coffins in a row. I knew I wouldn’t go for a haircut. I really regret it. I just finished my hair. The head is cold, and when the wind blows, it feels like being touched by a ghost.
After dinner, I called home. I call home every week.

My mother told me, “The grandmother next door passed away this morning.”
“Huh? Really?”
“Yes, I died suddenly. It was fine. I went to my home to watch TV last night. When your Afa (grandma’s youngest son) called her this morning, she was already out of breath. Alas, she is a good person. When you were young, she used to hug you…”
“Mom, what did you say?”
” Oh, I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid, grandma is a good person, it’s okay, don’t be afraid…”
I was afraid that my mother continued to talk, so I told her something else. Hanging up, I suddenly remembered that the familiar coffin must have belonged to my grandma…
In my hometown in the countryside, people are usually buried in the earth after death, and they are rarely cremated. . The government hasn’t made any rigid regulations yet, so the old people in the village all hope that they can settle down in the land after “a hundred years” and the fallen leaves will return to their roots. For the wishes of the elderly, the villagers insist on burial, and the tools needed are also collective.
The old people were afraid that they would not have a place to stay after they died, so they made coffins for themselves early and chose the addresses of their graves. Carved onto the tombstone. Of course, the grandmother next door also prepared a wooden coffin for herself early. The wooden coffin was placed in her backyard, which was a house with straw, and her coffin was placed in the corner. When I was a child, I often went inside to hide and seek with my children. We were never afraid of the coffin, not because we were bold. But in our opinion, it is grandma’s “baby”, how can you be afraid of people? When my grandma saw us playing inside, she told us to be careful not to hurt her. Then he told us that my coffin was made of fine wood and cost me a lot of money. At this time, we snarled and said that grandma’s coffin was used to pretend to be dead pigs, and that there were big mice hidden inside. Grandma has never been angry, telling us not to be naughty. Grandma is the most respected by everyone, she often gives us food. Sometimes, she would make some delicious foods and call our group of children. What a happy memory that is. What makes me hard to forget is that every time Grandma steamed sweet potatoes, her kitchen was surrounded by us. From time to time, we ask grandma when she can eat. Grandma said cheerfully: “It’s coming, it’s coming.”

Someone said: “Grandma, I want the biggest one.”
“Good, good.”
Someone said: “Grandma, I want the red heart, the red heart is the sweetest.”
< br/> “Good, good”
Someone said: “Grandma, I want white skin and yellow meat, the same as egg yolk.”
“Good , Good, good”
“Grandma, I want white skin and white meat, the kind is the most delicious.” “That’s what I said.
“Okay, okay, okay, it will be done soon.” “
As a result, everyone got what they wanted. Later, before the sweet potatoes were in the pot, Grandma prepared them. She knew who of us likes what to eat. Every time we were satisfied. I laughed.
What touched me most is that there is a grandmother, we children have never quarreled, let alone fight. And other elders gave us things Sometimes, it always makes us fight, and some people are always unhappy. Perhaps, this is the biggest reason we respect grandma.
At this time, I remembered, noon That cordial cry is like grandma. How could it be possible? Could it be that grandma’s soul came here? Although grandma loves me very much, and also loves me very much, I still feel afraid. I regret not asking clearly. Regarding grandma’s death. Otherwise, I can feel more at ease.
After the lights are turned off at night, I can’t sleep in bed. It must be because I slept too much during the day. I don’t know. After so long in a daze, I don’t know when I fell asleep…
A few cars covered with wreaths drove towards me, the cold wind in my ears caught the weird music Sound. Gradually, the car passed by me. Huh? Isn’t the wooden coffin on the car the grandmother’s?
Look, the colors are exactly the same.
< br/> “Stone baby——”
“Ah…”
“Stone baby——” At this time, he slowly went away There is one more person in the car. Isn’t that grandma, who is it?
“Grandma, grandma…”
But the car has gone away Going to Jinniu Mountain Park…
Alas, I’m really sorry. If I had already known it, I went to “Blue Sky”. Maybe I could catch up with Grandma. I found myself when I regretted it. It seems to have come to the broken playground. Isn’t the electrical department building in front of you? The car outside is still there. But when are there more people? I don’t know any of them, and I’ve never seen them. I walked over. .Oh, who are they? Where did the coffin go?
“Shiwazi——”
Suddenly someone called me behind my head, I I was shocked. When I turned to look, a figure covered with a white cloth was calling me not far from me.
