What a mother, how could God bear to take her life back so early?
Shen Huan was thinking, what is life?
What is death again?
That's right, as a reborn person, Shen Huan became more and more confused at this time, why did people come to this world, why did I be me, not someone else, let alone an animal like a chicken and a duckling?
No one can answer this question, there is no method to study people's self-consciousness, and sometimes Shen Huan even wonders, is rebirth a reflection of the objective world?
Is it real or nothing?
When a person dies, does his consciousness dissipate between heaven and earth?
Shen Huan was also very confused.
Jiang Baozhu walked over and whispered to Zhao Li: "It's okay, it's all over, won't there be an uncle in the future, and I will always be by your side, I will always be with you, at least you are not alone." ” Hearing Jiang Baozhu say this, Zhao Li finally turned his head, his eyes were already red, and he couldn't shed tears.
"Wow......"
Zhao Li seemed to be unable to control his emotions anymore, and suddenly threw himself into Jiang Baozhu's arms, buried his head in her body and cried bitterly, he was as helpless and sad as a child.
On such a miserable night, his cry was so poignant, it seemed that the whole picture was frozen.
Shen Huan and the others were also infected by this atmosphere, they didn't have a trace of fear, Jiang Baozhu kept stroking Zhao Li's head with his hand, and after a while, Zhao Li slowly calmed down, but his hand holding Jiang Baozhu was tight and refused to let go.
Jiang Baozhu also knew that Zhao Li at this moment really needed a haven from the wind, a place to release her grief, and she could give it to him.
After a long time, Zhao Licai finally let go of Jiang Baozhu, and when he saw Shen Huan and the others looking at him, he also looked a little embarrassed.
Jiang Baozhu smiled and said: "Ah Li, I hope you don't be too sad, your aunt is gone, you have to work hard to live better in the future, let the aunt of heaven see it, so that she will be very happy." ” Zhao Li nodded and said, "Well, I will!"
Thank you, Sister Zhu!
” Zhao Li was about to stand up, after all, he had been kneeling for so long, and his knees were a little numb, Jiang Baozhu also stretched out his hand to help him, who knew that Zhao Li had kneeled for too long and his legs were numb, but he didn't stand up this time, and suddenly fell to the side for a while, Jiang Baozhu hurriedly hugged him.
"Are you alright?"
Several people said at the same time.
Zhao Li hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a little numb!"
” The five of them kept watch in front of the mourning hall all night, until around five o'clock, the people who came to help arrived one after another, and Zhao Baogang also got up with his clothes on.
Seeing that Shen Huan and the others were not sleeping and were still accompanying their son, he hurriedly said: "Alas, it's really troublesome for you, the conditions at home are not good, I'm really sorry!"
” Shen Huan hurriedly said: "Uncle, don't say that, you see that we can't help anything when we come, so we can only do a little bit of our best!"
” Today is the second day, and according to rural customs, the dead cannot be cremated, so they have to go in the morning of the third day.
Shen Huan and the others didn't leave, but accompanied Zhao Li, although they were all busy, they were iron buddies, how could they leave without helping!
The next day, the Taoist priest also came, to see the cemetery during the day, and to do things at night, to recite sacrifices and so on.
Shen Huan didn't know why, he didn't sleep all night, he didn't feel much sleepy, and when the Taoist priest did things at night, he was really a little sleepy, but when he looked at Zhao Li, he didn't mean to be sleepy at all, it seemed that the pain in his heart really drove away the sleepiness.
After the Taoist priest finished the ritual, it was also very late, and when the others were almost gone, Shen Huan and the three of them felt that their eyelids were fighting, and it would definitely not work if they didn't find a place to sleep.
Zhao Li obviously saw it, and he said to Shen Huan embarrassedly: "Huanzi, the three of you go to my room and squeeze it, I'll be fine alone!"
” At this time, Zhao Baogang said: "Ah Li, you all go to sleep, let me guard, you have to send your mother to be cremated tomorrow, you will be tired if you don't sleep again, and when I go over there, I can't explain to your mother." ” Zhao Li hurriedly said: "Dad, what are you talking about!"
You can't say such unlucky words, I'm fine, or else, you sleep in the first half of the night, and I'll sleep for a while in the second half of the night. ” Zhao Baogang had to smile bitterly: "Okay!
” …… Early in the morning of the third day, Shen Huan and the others also woke up, and when they got up, they saw that a lot of villagers who helped had also come, and today some people wanted to escort Zhao Li's mother to be cremated, and some people wanted to go to the cemetery selected by the Taoist priest to lay the foundation for burial.
Shen Huan, the three of them and Jiang Baozhu, all accompanied Zhao Li, and some accompanying people, got on a minibus and went all the way to the crematorium in the county seat.
When Zhao Li looked at his mother's skinny body and slowly sent it into the furnace, his vision blurred, and his tears couldn't stop falling, the mother who gave birth to him and raised him will never be seen again in the future, only her voice and smile remain in the hearts of the world.
In the haze, Zhao Li seemed to see him when he was a child, being held in his mother's arms and making him laugh.
"Ali, laugh, laugh and show your mother."
The mother looked at Zhao Li, who was only more than a year old in her arms, and she smiled happily, her son is fat, and he will definitely be tall and big when he grows up in the future.
On the side, Zhao Baogang, who looked very much like an adult Zhao Li, couldn't help but say: "Wife, you said that he is so young, what do you know, he can't understand what you say at all!"
” The mother still looked at her son and smiled softly: "Who said that my son will not be as stupid as you, he will definitely be admitted to university in the future, get ahead, and let our family live a good life!"
” Zhao Baogang smiled bitterly: "Okay, I'm stupid, but my son is smart!"
” At this time, Zhao Li, who was lying in his mother's arms, finally seemed to be unable to help giggling, his smile was so innocent, his mother was immediately overjoyed, and turned his head to Zhao Baogang and said: "Look, how smart my son is, he can understand what we are talking about!"
” …… Xiao Zhao Li finally learned to walk staggeringly, his mother stood far away, looked at him with encouraging eyes, and said gently: "Ah Li, don't be afraid, come to Mom!"
” Saying that, his mother opened his warm embrace, Xiao Zhao Li giggled, and rushed towards his mother, his mother's arms are the harbor of his little mind and body, he is only so old, of course he will not know, his mother will grow old one day, today he will lie in his mother's arms and not get up, but one day his mother's white hair will be blown by the wind, and his mother will need him to help him to walk. …… When Xiao Zhao Li reached the age of going to school, he became naughty, often messed up the house, and once almost set fire to the house, for which his ass was also opened by his father Zhao Baogang.
But his mother is still his strong backing, that day I saw that Xiao Zhao Li was beaten with bamboo by Zhao Baogang, the mother was so distressed that she couldn't cry at that time, she hugged Zhao Li's small body, choked and said: "Husband, what are you doing here?"

You're going to beat your son to death to make you happy, aren't you?
” Zhao Baogang was still angry, so he said loudly impatiently: "It's all your fault, if it weren't for your pet, he would have played with fire and almost burned down his house?"
It is said that loving mothers are defeated, and it seems that it is really true!
You don't think you're beating too hard, right, then you can take care of it yourself!
” The mother was also angry and shouted: "Is there a father like you?
What does he know?
You know that if you fight, you can't reason well?
” …… Zhao Li, who became a primary school student, became the pride of his parents, his academic performance was very good, and he has always been the first in the class, and on this day he won a certificate of first place in the class in the final exam.
Mother happily took the certificate and carefully pasted it in the middle of the hall, so that when a guest came, he could see that the wall was now covered with no less than twenty certificates, including those who had the first place in the examination and those who had three good grades.
Zhao Baogang put his hands behind his back, looked at this award wall, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, it seems that it was not in vain, now that I am sensible, I know that I have won glory for my parents, Ah Li, I am about to go to the township to go to junior high school, you must know that there are mountains outside the mountains, there are people outside the people, you are the first in the village primary school, but when you get to the township, it is not necessarily, you have to work hard!"
” Xiao Zhao Li said loudly with confidence: "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will definitely continue to win the first, if you don't get it, Dad, you can whip me with bamboo!"
” …… Zhao Li, who went to junior high school, really lived up to his parents' expectations, in the three classes of the whole grade, he was still the first, and no one could shake him.
This makes the middle-aged Zhao Baogang and his family seem to see hope, according to this result, if they go to high school, it will not be a problem to be admitted to a key university.
But if you want to go to high school and college, the cost is a lot, and the family is not financially well-off, so it is really difficult for Zhao Li to go to college!
On this day, a family of three had a family meeting.
Zhao Baogang took a few puffs of cigarettes one after another, and then said in a deep voice: "Ah Li, now you are fifteen years old and almost an adult, so today we will have a democratic family meeting."
Discuss your future exam questions.
You also know that the economic conditions of the family are not well-off, and if you want to go to college, my father is really a little worried, and there will be no money to pay your tuition at that time. ” Zhao Li hasn't spoken yet, he doesn't understand these now, anyway, he only knows that the school requires everyone to sign up for the secondary school exam, because every junior high school has a task, how many secondary schools must be admitted, of course, every time a secondary school is admitted, the teachers will be rewarded.
Therefore, the teachers also keep instilling in the students the idea that it is good to go to the secondary school, for these rural children, they will become national cadres when they are admitted to the technical secondary school, and they will be assigned jobs after graduation.
And there is an advantage of going to a secondary school, that is, the cost is very low, but going to university is not affordable for ordinary rural people, not to mention that the university is also not so easy to get into.
Before Zhao Li could say anything, his mother slapped the table and stood up and said loudly: "Old Zhao, what do you say?"
Our family Ali has such good grades, how can he go to secondary school?
No, he must go to college, I went to tell the school, I can't let him take the secondary school exam, otherwise he will definitely be admitted, then he can't go to a key high school, he can't be admitted to a university, I said you Lao Zhao, are you ruining Ali's future for that money?
I'm just smashing pots and selling iron, going to do small jobs, selling blood, and I want him to go to college!
That's it!
” Zhao Li looked at his mother, and then at his father, he didn't know what to say. …… Mother went to school to make a big fuss, and the school finally stopped forcing Zhao Li to take the secondary school exam.
Zhao Li ranked third in the county and went to the provincial key high school, the county middle school.
Here his grades are also excellent, but unfortunately not long before the college entrance examination, he didn't know what was going on, he suddenly got a serious illness, a severe cold and acne infection on his face, his father and mother took him to several hospitals in the city, and it took more than two months to control it, but at this time his study also affected a lot, and he lost thirty pounds all of a sudden, and he did not play very well in the college entrance examination, and finally only admitted to a second-rate university such as Daning Institute of Technology.
On the day he left his parents and went to Daning Institute of Technology, the young Zhao Li cried, and he howled and said to his mother: "I'm sorry, Mom, I disappointed you!"
The tuition fee is so expensive, I know the money you borrowed from others, you can rest assured, I will definitely work hard to work and study, and pay back the money, and, Mom, you and Dad don't go to the brick factory to work as a small worker, it's too hard, I, I can't bear to worry about you for me, tired of any illness!
” The mother smiled lovingly: "It's okay, my parents are in good health, you can go to school with confidence, study hard, ah!"
” …… Scene after scene flashed in front of Zhao Li's eyes like this, he knew deeply that his mother was tired and sick just because he went to college, otherwise why would she leave so early?
Her small body has carried too heavy a burden, and everything she does is for her son!
But now, she hasn't enjoyed her son's blessings, so she left like this, and even when she left, she didn't even see her son's face!
Thinking of these, Zhao Li's tears poured out like a flood, and in the tears, he saw that the board that had just sent his mother's body into the hearth was slowly pulled out of the raging fire, and at this time, only a small skeleton was left on the board, which was his mother's ashes!
Zhao Li's knees weakened, and he immediately fell to his knees, crying bitterly: "Mom!
” He felt that his mind was blank, and the whole person fainted all of a sudden, he barely slept for three days, and he didn't eat anything, his body couldn't hold on, and when he saw his mother, he became that pair of ashes, and he fainted from the bottom of his heart.
Fortunately, Shen Huan and Li Tie moved quickly, and the two of them stopped him.
At this time, Shen Huan couldn't help but his eyes were red, and tears flowed out.
Is this how people go through their lives?
As a reborn person, Shen Huan has seen too many life and death, and he knows that although he is reborn, one day, like Zhao Li's mother, he will be pushed into the hearth of the crematorium, turned into such a skeleton, and will turn into an ash skeleton when touched, and then put it into a small box and sleep in the ground.
People, it's really the red fruit coming, and the red fruit go!
In this world, there are people born every day, and countless lives pass away, coming and going, all for what?
After a while, Zhao Li woke up and turned around, but at this time, the staff had already put his mother's ashes into the box.
Zhao Li was dumbfounded, like a fool, looking at the box with blank eyes, Jiang Baozhu held his back and comforted: "Ah Li, don't be like this, we should go, pick up your mother, it's time to go home!"

” Zhao Li muttered, "Yes, it's time to go home!"
Mom, we're going, we're going home!
” Along the way, Zhao Li just held the box in a daze, and what was in the box was the woman who gave him life and nursed him to grow up!
He has no tears to shed, but in his heart, he is indeed sad at the moment beyond words.
Back in that small mountain village, the villagers had already helped dig the graves, and several stonemasons worked together to build a small burial chamber in the grave with bluestone.
Zhao Li held his mother's urn and put it into the small tomb with his own hands, the mountains and rivers are beautiful here, and his mother will definitely live in such a place when she arrives there, Zhao Li prayed in his heart.
Some of my mother's belongings were buried in it, and the villagers who helped covered the tomb with a shovel of soil, and when a pile of paper money burned brightly, Zhao Li and Zhao Baogang, father and son, hugged their heads and cried, the greatest sorrow in the world is nothing more than this.
At this time, the sky that was originally sunny seemed to be infected by this scene, and the sky darkened unconsciously, and bursts of whirlwind swept those paper ashes and drifted into the distance.
Mother's clothes were all taken out and burned on the edge of the cemetery, as if there was no trace of her in this world, as if she had never been here, but Zhao Li knew that she would always live in his heart, and she would also live in the hearts of many relatives and friends!
After the funeral, the villagers dispersed, and at this time, Shen Huan and the three of them were about to leave.
Looking at Zhao Li, who looked sad, Shen Huan comforted: "Ah Li, cheer up, my aunt has a spirit in the sky, and I don't want to look at you like this, take care of your body, and you must take care of your uncle, we are ready to go back, if there is anything, you must tell us, don't forget, we are good brothers, better than brothers, remember!"
” Zhao Li nodded and said: "I know, thank you really for accompanying me this time, if there is no you, no Sister Zhu, I really don't know if I will, alas!"
Alright, I'll send you to the entrance of the village!
” ……
