Just like that, Xiao Qilei and his aunt drove home. On the contrary, I hoped that my aunt and Gongsun Tianqiang would also go home. It was really annoying to see them here.
After seeing them off, my grandpa looked at me and said, "Xiao An, if you have nothing to do, go check out the urn and choose a burial place for your grandma."
"Let him choose any place, my son can choose it." Aunt Guijuan grinned: "My son is much better than him."
I looked at her and said coldly: "There is no need to choose the location of the grave. My grandma told me in a dream that it should be buried next to Teacher Qiao's grave."
"Hmph, you..." When my aunt was about to quarrel with me, my grandpa interrupted me, "Okay, okay, are you done yet? Did you come back to see your mother or because of a quarrel? , do you want to make me mad?"
"Humph." Aunt Guijuan snorted and said nothing.
I put on my cotton-padded jacket and said, "Grandpa, I'm going out first."
"I'll go with you too."
"I'll go with you too."
Suddenly, He Huanhuan and Xiao Mengxin said in unison.
As soon as they finished speaking, the two girls looked at each other, as if there were sparks in their eyes.
Just when Xiao Mengxin was about to say something, He Huanhuan turned around and said coldly: "You go ahead, you are husband and wife!"
After speaking, He Huanhuan went directly to the north room and slammed the door.
I looked at my grandpa and Xiao Mengxin in surprise, and thought to myself that He Huanhuan was so angry. This was the first time I saw her like this.
"Haha." Gongsun Tianqiang suddenly said sarcastically: "It's true that silence here is better than sound."
"Shut your stinky mouth!" Xiao Mengxin scolded him, then took my elbow and said, "Xiao An, I'll go with you."
I looked at the north bedroom door worriedly, sighed and walked out of the room.
Suddenly, my grandfather yelled a reminder from behind me, "Xiao An, don't buy an urn that is too expensive. Your grandma has told me that the urn should be less than one thousand."
"Ah, I got it." I agreed, took the money I earned during this period and went out, thinking that it was impossible to buy something so cheap, it would cost more than three thousand.
After getting into Xiao Mengxin's Mercedes-Benz, she looked hesitant and did not speak.
"Ahem..." I coughed and said, "Xiao Mengxin, thank you for coming this time."
In front of everyone, I didn't want to take advantage of her when she got close to me, but now...
"Thank you? Did we still use thank you before?" Xiao Mengxin looked at me again after saying that, "Xiao An, are you still angry with me?"
I looked out the window and remained silent.
"I've been thinking about you so much that I've been going crazy thinking about you. Sometimes my heart hurts so much that I roll on the bed. The pain of loss really tortures me to the point of death. Do you know that?" Xiao Mengxin resented? said.
"I know." I said calmly, feeling that this was the crime she deserved.
"This can be considered retribution for leaving without saying goodbye last time. Xiao An, can you really not forgive me?" Xiao Mengxin's voice was a little aggrieved.
In fact, after I learned about Xiao Mengxin's recent situation from my eldest sister a few days ago, the resentment in my heart has been reduced a lot. Although I still can't forgive her, at least I don't hate her so much.
But, I just don’t want to take a stand.
I remained silent. Xiao Mengxin sighed resentfully and concentrated on driving.
After arriving at the funeral supplies store in town, I took a fancy to a dark blue urn with a phoenix carved on it, but the price was a bit expensive, costing 30,000 yuan.
Although I really wanted to buy such a good urn for my grandma, the price exceeded my budget. But just when I wanted to settle for the next best thing, I bought an urn that cost more than 8,000 yuan.
Xiao Mengxin's cold voice came, "Boss, I want this 30,000-yuan one, just swipe your card."
After speaking, she handed over a card directly.
"Huh?" I quickly grabbed her wrist and said, "You don't need to spend money. How can this be done? You..."
"I have the final say on what I want to buy. Besides, your grandma is my grandma. Is there anything wrong with me choosing a better quality urn for grandma? Besides, you have no control over how much I spend."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for me to speak, she looked at the boss again and said, "Swipe your card!"
"You..." I didn't want to owe her any more favors, but before I could finish my words, the boss quickly took out the POS machine and swiped the card. He smiled apologetically and said, "Beauty, please enter your password."
With a beeping sound, these 30,000-plus urns were taken down.
I could only frown and sigh helplessly, thinking that when I got richer, I would have to buy a gift worth tens of thousands to give to her. Last time I received more than 30,000 yuan from Big Brother. I was so embarrassed that I could no longer owe her any favors.
After I went out with the urn, I thought of the little begging girl Zhuang Ruxue I met a few months ago.
It happened that her family ran a shroud shop and wanted to buy some funeral supplies for her grandma and see how she and her grandfather were doing.
After telling Xiao Mengxin the address of Ruxue's home in Zhuang, I looked at her and said, "You can't spend money anymore, do you hear that?"
Xiao Mengxin rolled her eyes at me and said nothing.
But when we arrived at the door of the shroud shop, what surprised me was that it was closed. The plaque on it was so torn that no writing could be seen.
A large piece of the bottom right side of the rusty rolling shutter door was deflated. The doorway was full of garbage and dust. It had obviously not been cleaned for a long time and it looked very dilapidated.
"Are you sure this is where you came?" Xiao Mengxin looked at me and asked.
But I wonder what happened to Zhuang Ruxue’s family. Could it be that her grandfather has passed away?
So where did this little girl go? Was she picked up by her father who was working in the city? However, I only have a casual acquaintance with her, and it is not easy to interfere in other people's affairs. I hope they are doing well.
"Let's go look elsewhere." After I said that, I went to another funeral store and bought some gold bricks and gold bars to give grandma some extra money on the day of the burial.
Then I chose a good quality polished granite tombstone that exuded a dark light and cost me five thousand oceans.
After buying all the things, I looked at Xiao Mengxin and said, "Okay, let's go home."
Xiao Mengxin looked far behind and said, "Xiao An, how about you take a walk with me? I want to go to the top of the mountain we went to before."
I thought about it and thought that I had nothing to do at the moment, and since I was feeling quite dull, I might as well go and relax.
Soon, after arriving at the location, we stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the scenery of the town below with some melancholy, and memories of the last time we were here appeared in our minds.
We just stood here quietly, blowing the breeze, no one said anything.
After a long time, Xiao Mengxin suddenly took my hand and said: "Xiao An, your grandma is gone. Your grandpa is getting older and will probably go to the city for retirement soon. After handling grandma's affairs this time, you can come with me. How about we go to the city and live together?”
Looking at her hopeful eyes, I shook my head.
"Do you feel too rushed?" Xiao Mengxin asked again: "What about after the New Year? Or how about after the 15th?"
"No, I don't want to go to the city right now." I said calmly and looked towards the foot of the mountain.
However, Xiao Mengxin's face suddenly turned cold, "Xiao An, let me ask you, if you don't want to leave with me, are you reluctant to leave your sister He Huanhuan? Do you like her?"
My heart skipped a beat when I heard this, and I looked at her sharply, "What are you talking about? I don't want to go to the city and have nothing to do with Huanhuan. She is just my sister."
"Sister?" Xiao Mengxin said with a sarcastic look: "Xiao An, you are still young and don't know the cruelty of society. Do you think there is a pure relationship between men and women in this world?"
"Why not? He Huanhuan and I have a pure male-female relationship." I said quibly, disgusted with her very realistic attitude.
"Haha." Xiao Mengxin said mockingly: "Interpersonal relationships in society are only about use and being used. How can there be any deep friendship or pure relationship between men and women? They are all based on values and each has their own needs. When people tear apart Once you get off that fig leaf, you will become extremely hideous and ugly. This is human nature."
Although Xiao Mengxin is older than me, she is still only eighteen years old. It is difficult to understand that she has such deep insights and thorough understanding of society at such an old age. This may be related to the influence of her family background.
But I was very disgusted with her theory and said loudly: "Don't use your theory to describe my relationship with Huanhuan. We have known each other since we were children. We do not use each other or have our own needs. I regard her as Sister, she only regards me as her brother, not what you think."
"It's not what I thought?" Xiao Mengxin laughed, her eyes gradually becoming sharper, "You also said that you have known each other since you were young, and it is inevitable that you will fall in love over time. Who knows whether there will be any sparks between you in the future?"
"You, how could you think so? You..." I was so reprimanded by her that I didn't know what to say.
I suddenly thought of what Gongsun Tianqiang and Aunt Guijuan said yesterday to sow discord. Could it be that Xiao Mengxin was overly concerned about their words?
"Xiao Mengxin, are you overly concerned about what my aunt and her son said yesterday? If you are so easily provoked and even doubt me, then I really think too highly of you." My face also turned cold.
Seeing that I was angry, Xiao Mengxin softened her expression and exhaled: "Xiao An, I'm not doubting you, and I believe in your character, but I'm just worried that some people think differently than you."
"What do you mean?" I asked looking at her.
Xiao Mengxin stared into my eyes with a serious expression, "Xiao An, you regard He Huanhuan as your biological sister, but she may not think so."
My pupils gradually dilated upon hearing this.
Xiao Mengxin said again: "Xiao An, I am a woman and I understand girls' thoughts very well. I feel that He Huanhuan has already fallen in love with you!"
"What?" I exclaimed when I heard this, "This is impossible, how could she fall in love with me? Don't talk nonsense, this is impossible."
My heart was pounding and it felt so incredible. How could He Huanhuan fall in love with me? How could this be possible?
I have always regarded her as my sister. It is impossible, absolutely impossible that she will fall in love with me.
"Nothing is impossible." Xiao Mengxin stared at me and said, "Xiao An, didn't you feel that He Huanhuan acted a little strange when she saw me? And I also saw other meanings in her eyes. She looked at There's something wrong with your eyes, it's definitely not as simple as you think, you..."
