Does the Heavens Want to Kill People?
When Mister Rain was twenty years old, Lady Yan gave birth to a son for him. This made Mister Rain go crazy with joy.
The peasant movement had finally ended. Mei Di and the others had been struggling for more than half a year, but they still left quietly. Maple Ridge returned to normal life, and Mr. Rain's fear of riots was relieved.
This was truly a double blessing, something worth celebrating!
What kind of name should she give the child? Mister Rain thought for a while and finally came up with a name," Lan Xin." When the child was born, it was the season when the fragrance of orchid and laurel spread for thousands of miles. He hoped that his son would have a good and noble character when he grew up.
Lady Yan was really capable. After the child was one month old, she started working in the fields. The fields had to be planted, the land had to be plowed, and she had to chop firewood. The child was crying at home because he was hungry. Mr. Rain didn't know how to comfort the child, so he often cried when the child cried. The children in the Meng Mansion would laugh at their teacher for being a big child.
At this time, Wu Qionggui had already given birth to a girl, and this little girl was already two years old. She often brought the little girl to Gaoshan Temple to help.
Wu Qionggui held Lan Xin in her arms, and Lan Xin's cries became softer. Wu Qionggui patted the child and said,""Oh, oh, our big brother doesn't know how to bring our little Lan Xin. Oh, oh, we won't cry, we won't cry. We want to eat.”
After Wu Qionggui finished cooking the rice noodles, she began to feed Lan Xin. She said to the rain,""Little brother, hurry up and give birth. When you give birth to your second child, you can adopt Lan Xin to us.”
In the rain, she said," Second Sister-in-law, aren't you joking? You can already give birth. Wouldn't giving birth to another child fulfill your wish? An adopted son isn't your biological son after all."”
Wu Qionggui said," If I could give birth, would I still need you to tell me? Look, I'm already thirty-six years old this year. I've been married to your Maple Ridge for almost twenty years, and I only gave birth to a precious daughter. She almost took my life. The midwife said, I can't give birth anymore. If I give birth again, I'm going to be buried in the mud.”
In the rain, she said," Alright then. You can wait slowly. Our family will work hard to give birth. When the second child is born, Lan Xin will go and live with your family."”
Wu Qionggui said," Little brother, you have to be serious. I'm telling the truth. You can't cancel the contract when the time comes."”
In the rain, they laughed, and the children in the Meng Mansion also laughed.
On this day, Mister Rain taught the children the Thousand Character Classic.
The teacher led the students to read "Heaven, Earth, Black, Yellow, Universe, Desolation", and the children followed suit. The teacher read "The sun and the moon are full, and the stars are arranged." The children followed suit and read "The sun and the moon are full, and the stars are arranged." The teacher read "Cold comes and summer goes, autumn harvests and winter hides", and the children followed suit to read "Cold comes and summer goes, autumn harvests and winter hides".
Wu Qionggui said," Little Brother, you should teach something practical. For example, you don't even know what autumn harvest and winter storage are. How would the children know?" You've been studying since you were young. When you stop studying, you teach. You've never done farm work. You don't know how the rice is planted or harvested. How can the children understand?”
In the rain, she said," Second Sister-in-law, you are a woman. The world is not something that can be done by one person. Why do you want everything from me? You haven't eaten pork and haven't seen a pig walk?”
Wu Qionggui said," Why is your child so young? As the saying goes, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. You actually call me a daughter-in-law?”
In the rain, she smiled and said,"You're not my eldest sister-in-law. You're my second sister-in-law."”
When Lan Xin was two years old, Lady Yan gave birth to a daughter. Although Wu Qionggui was a little unhappy, she still came to help every day. As she worked, she scolded the Yan family's daughter again and again."Why are you so unreasonable? Why don't you give birth to a boy?”
Lady Yan said," Don't panic, don't panic. This isn't the Autumn Melon. I'll give birth to one a year from now on. There will be a boy. By then, you can have your wish fulfilled."”
The children in the hall suddenly shouted,"Sir, sir, it's dark, it's dark.”
Mr. Yu, who was helping his wife change her diapers in the house, also felt that it was dark. He felt strange. It was only the middle of the morning. Why was it dark already?
Mr. Rain hurriedly ran to the central room and opened the side door to look outside. Sure enough, the whole world was dark, just like night. He quickly drew back, lit a tung oil lamp and placed it on the podium, telling everyone not to panic. At this moment, the dust on the beam rustled down, the copper ring on the door knocked loudly, the ink used by the children to practice writing swayed and spilled over the inkstone pool, and the people sitting in the chairs swayed. Some hit the table with their foreheads, and some fell to the ground.
Mr. Rain realized that the ground was shaking. He had read " The Bamboo Annals " and knew that there was an earthquake. He hurriedly asked the children to hide under the table.
After a cup of tea, the earth stopped shaking and the sky regained its light.
The village women rushed out of their houses and came to the forbidden garden under the tree. Everyone was exchanging their opinions.
Mei Di's wife said," I was in the middle of relieving myself. I was shaken so much that I sat down on the thatched roof.”Everyone laughed at her for eating maggots."That's not true. Even if I did, I couldn't say.”
Aunt Zhang said," I was drinking tea. When the ground shook, a cup of tea fell into my mouth. I almost choked to death. If I choked to death, all of you would probably be crying.”
Tong Shan's wife said," Why is the ground shaking? It's shaking people all over the place. Tell me, doesn't this look like a man shaking his body?"”
Aunt Zhang said,"The men in my family have never shaken it before, so I don't know how it feels."”
Everyone laughed. Suddenly, the rain poured down and the people ran back as if they were flying.
Mister Rain told everyone that it was an earthquake just now. The earth was angry. This was a natural phenomenon. It was recorded in ancient books thousands of years ago.
Why was the earth angry? Why was it angry? Did the peasant movement two years ago offend it? Everyone thought that it was not so. If the peasant movement had offended it, it would have been angry long ago. Why would it wait until today?
This year's harvest was not bad. Although the earthquake was still lingering and everyone was worried that it would come again, time passed day by day. The rice was planted and the grain was returned to the granary. The sweet potato seedlings were planted, and the sweet potatoes were also put into the cellar. The leaves began to fall, and finally, only the branches were left.
When the twelfth lunar month came, the sky began to fall, and the harsh icicles descended on the land of northern Hunan.
When Xingren got up in the morning and went to wash his face with a towel, he saw that there were insects hanging from the towel. The towel was all over, and it was hard to file his hands. The kettle in the fireplace had been boiling for a long time, but it couldn't boil water. Holding the iron tongs in his hand was as uncomfortable as holding a piece of ice in his heart.
Xingren was already 44 years old this year. His body had been sick all this time. He suspected that he was about to die. After Old Madam Huang passed away, his family gave birth to two more children, both girls. He felt sorry for his mother. He had reached the end of his fertility. He had four children, three girls and a boy. He had just barely made ends meet and had not developed. Sheng 'er had stopped studying. He was already fifteen years old this year. He would find a wife for him next year. The sooner they got married, the sooner they would have grandchildren. He didn't know if he would be able to see his grandchildren.
After washing his face, Xingren ordered Sheng 'er to fetch water. There was no water in the water tank. Xingren said," You have to be careful. You have to wear straw shoes on the outside of your cloth shoes so that you won't slip. When you reach the water channel, you have to be extra careful on the stone bridge so that you don't fall into the ice hole."
Sheng 'er carried the bucket and set off. The wilderness was white, and the grass by the roadside was frozen like iron thorns. With a sweep of his feet, it broke with a crash. Because he was wearing straw sandals, it was not a big problem for him to walk on slippery roads.
The people on the east side of the main hall of Maple Ridge had to go to the water channel to get their water. The water channel was at the foot of the kiln ridge 200 meters above the house. It was a small pond with a sweet dip in it. It was forbidden to wash in the past and could only be used for drinking and irrigation. There was a stone bridge beside the pond. When people wanted to scoop water, they stood on the stone bridge.
Sheng 'er came to the stone bridge. What he saw was that the water in the pond was completely frozen. You couldn't see the water, only the ice. From the color of the ice, it wasn't thin ice, but a very thick layer.
Sheng 'er put down the bucket and used the carrying pole to cut the ice. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make a hole. He could only go home and get a hoe. Xing Ren said,"Sheng 'er, I don't feel at ease if you go alone. Call Second Uncle and ask him to help."”
Wan Ren followed Sheng 'er to the side of the stream. He stood on the stone bridge and smashed the ice with his hoe. Finally, he broke a hole in the water and could scoop water. Wan Ren went ashore.
Sheng 'er went to scoop water, and just as he put a bucket down, he slipped into the ice hole. Fortunately, the ice hole was not big. Sheng 'er's two hands were lying on the ice. Wanren saw that it was not good, so he went to pull his nephew up. "Go back and change your clothes. I'll bring water back."”
Sheng 'er carried the hoe home, while Wan Ren carried the water into his eldest brother's water tank and went to carry water again.
Xingren complained to Sheng 'er,"You're already an adult. Why can't you do something? When I was your age, I could already run to Antler Pier."”
Jia Shan brought his two wives to the Bamboo Garden Hall to push the grain. Jia Shan was the main push, the first wife was the assistant push, and the second wife was only responsible for sweeping the rice. Jiashan began to joke. He said,"The things in this world are strange. If there is a push, there will be a push. For every man, there was a woman.”
The second wife said,"The strangest thing is that a man has two wives."”
Jiashan said," A man with two wives is nothing. Look at Ye Kaixin. He has four or five wives." His bedroom is as big as our Zhuyuan Hall. The bed is also specially made. The five wives are not allowed to sleep separately and have to sleep on this bed. When he was working hard, his other wives watched him from both sides and wanted to give him marks. Sometimes, he took turns to work on his five wives, some three times, some five times. After poking her three times, she pouted and refused to let Ye Kaixin kiss her. Ye Kaixin said,"If you don't give me a kiss, I'll lose more weight."”
The first wife said," Hubby, why are you clearing the place like this? Were you watching Ye Kaixin doing his homework? Did you go and help him?"”
The concubine said," Sister, you've wronged our pig. Our pig only dreamed of Ye Kaixin's scene. How could he be qualified to be a spectator?"”
Jia Shan said,"Why are you calling me Pig Feet? I'm Pig Feet, so are you two Pig Granny?"”
The concubine said,"We are not pig grannies. Pig grannies have many pig feet. We only have one husband." But you are a pig because you have more than one wife. You dream every day and can't wait to change your wife every day.”
Jiashan said," It's good to have many wives. Look at how flirtatious I am with my first wife. She just doesn't want to have children. I married a second wife and she gave birth to two daughters. If I married another wife, she would give birth to two children for me.”
The small wife said,"You dare? If you marry another wife, I will use a saw to cut off your handle and make you a father-in-law."”
The first wife laughed. Jiashan said," I surrender, I surrender. I'm impressed."”
The concubine said," You can't refuse to accept this. If you refuse to accept this, we won't cook for you. You won't be able to do anything at night. You can only be anxious at the side."”
Jia Shan said," What vegetables are we eating today? The cabbages in the vegetable garden are all like iron fans. When they are cut back and scattered, they droop like worms hanging from a man's crotch when he is pushing rice."”
The small wife said,"You didn't make a good analogy. The Ling worm is hard!" Is that hanging bug of yours hard now? I'm afraid it's just a cotton pad!”
"Touch it and see if it's a cotton pad," Jiashan said.”
The first wife freed one hand to touch it and said,"It's just a cotton pad."
Jiashan said," Ling Tian's hands will freeze if he goes to wash the vegetables like this. His hands will also become stiff if they are placed in the water. He won't be able to wash the vegetables." Why don't we kill a chicken to eat? It's good to eat chicken. After eating chicken, we'll be motivated.”
The concubine said,"You are just trying to coax our family's chicken to eat. You even found a crooked reason."”
There were only two houses in Fuqing's house. The couple occupied one room. Cooking, eating, and entertaining guests were also in this room. The five sons occupied one room. The eldest son and the second son were married, so they each had a bed. The three younger sons shared a bed. The house wasn't big at first. There were three beds and seven people sleeping in it. There was also a urinal on the floor. The smell of urine and human body pervaded the small space.
Fuqing's wife had already made breakfast. Fuqing called his sons to eat. He called a few times, but no one paid attention to him. Fuqing said," You lazy worms are really too lazy. No wonder our family is poor. It's almost noon, but you're still sleeping. You're not afraid of being ugly."”
There was still no movement, and the sons pretended not to hear it.
Fuqing continued," After you have eaten, go to the mountains and look for any frozen pheasants and rabbits. We haven't fed the pigs at home. It's almost the New Year. Pick up some pheasants and rabbits to buy for the New Year." The firewood at home could only be used for a few days. He looked at the mountain to see if there were any broken branches and picked up some to make firewood. I'm almost sixty years old this year. It's your turn to do these things.”
There was still no movement in the inner room, so Fuqing set off. He went to the inner room and first took off the covers of his three younger sons. He saw his third son, Mei Ji, hugging his fourth son, Mei Tuo, and kissing them. They were entangled together naked, and the younger son, Mei Xun, slept on the other side. It was naturally very cold after taking off the blanket. Meiji cursed,"You old egg, do you want to die? It's so cold that it's killing us.”
Mei Ji was a thorn in the family's side. Fuqing and the others were already used to his cursing.
The eldest son and the second son started to get up. They could not let their father come and pull off their blankets.
He said he was eating breakfast, but he was actually eating fennel. There was no more rice at home. Fuqing's wife did not put in a single grain of rice and only cooked a pot of fennel. The family of nine did not even have two bowls on average.
Eldest Mei Mo said,"Our family is too bitter. We eat a few lumps of fennel every meal."”
The second brother, Mei Mao, said,"Yes, look at Jiashan. His life is so comfortable." Brother Tong Shan also had children and nothing at home.”
The third brother, Mei Ji, said," Who's to blame? It's our master's servant. If our master was a little more arrogant, would we be able to live such a hard life?”
Fuqing's wife said," It's too much. It's too much. It's not easy for the two of us to support you. It's already good enough that you can eat fennel." Now that you're all grown up, Third Brother, you're already twenty-two. It's all up to you. If you're willing to work like Brother Tong Shan and have the strength like Brother Wanren, how can this family not prosper?”
After eating, the four brothers went up the mountain.
Each of them had a straw rope tied around their waists so that the cold wind would not enter their bodies. Her feet were wrapped in rags and she was wearing straw sandals. The sky was still raining flowers. The flowers were flying in the air, floating towards the faces of the pedestrians and landing on their necks. It was extremely cold.
After climbing up the mountain peak of Yaoling, they continued to walk north. After passing through five mouths and four slopes, they entered the dense forest of the mountain. The trees were covered in white flowers, and there were insects hanging from the leaves, which were two feet long.
Mei Ji said," We're courting death. What kind of bad idea is this, Old Master? How can there be pheasants and rabbits waiting for us to pick them up? Pheasants don't stay in their nests, and rabbits don't stay in their holes."”
Mei Tuo said," The old man has life experience. If he says there is, then there is. You just have to be patient."”
Meggie said," Look at who drove their sons up the mountain to pick up pheasants and rabbits on such a cold day. We have such a living man. When is he going to die?”
Mei Mo said," Third Brother, why are you cursing the old man to death? No matter what, he's still your father. Have you become a beast? Curse me to be struck by lightning!"”
Mei Mao said,"He is a beast. He even opened the tent door at night to peek at our wife urinating."”
Mei Ji said," Second Brother, you've wronged me. How could I be peeping? I was afraid that your wife didn't pee in the bucket. That would dirty the floor."”
Mei Tuo said," Look, what's that? There's a bunch of them."”
Everyone walked forward and indeed saw a pile of things. They brushed away the flowers on it and found that it was two pheasants. Just as he was wondering why there were two and not one?
" It must be a male and a female," Meggie said." They were doing their homework when the sky suddenly fell and they were set to die here, so we were lucky to eat them.”
With this harvest, the brothers were confident. They continued to search and found two pheasants, two wild rabbits, and two loads of branches and firewood.
Lingtian had already been trapping people at home for a month, bringing about great difficulties to their lives.
Duke An was all alone. If he didn't breathe, the family wouldn't be able to breathe. After such a long period of time, Ling Tian had already used up almost all of his family's savings. The rice in the jar was less than a bucket, the fennel in the cellar was still a few loads, and the vegetables in the vegetable field were all cooked. The most difficult thing was that he did not have any firewood. Usually, he would only need to get firewood to burn for a few days. After being frozen for so long, the firewood he had saved up would be burned out. He began to burn the bed grass, cooking a meal with a handful at a time, and boiling some salt water to cook. Sometimes, he would not cook. He would eat a fennel raw as a meal. After eating, she climbed onto the bed and sat under the blanket. Her eyes stared blankly at the black mosquito net. When she was tired of looking, her eyes would become blurry for a while, and then she would enter a dream.
In the middle of the afternoon, Duke An walked through the long alley from his residence, Jade Hall, into Shi An Hall, and came to Li Ren's home. His purpose was to warm himself up by the fire and talk.
Li Ren happened to be cooking pork chop. When he saw his uncle, he said respectfully,"Granduncle An, you're here. Please take a seat. I'll make you some tea.”
Li Ren was only one year younger than Duke An, but Duke An was older than Li Ren. Therefore, Li Ren still called Duke An as uncle.
Quinoa Ren handed over the tea, and Duke An began to drink it. He hadn't drunk tea for a long time.
Li Ren said,"Uncle An, you're still living well, right? You don't have to worry about food and use, right?"”
An Guogong said," What's good about it? A family is a family's plan. A person is a person's plan." I usually eat my fill and the whole family doesn't go hungry, so living is not a long-term plan. Look at this damn plague. It's been raining for more than a month, and I don't know when it'll stop.”
Li Ren said," This weather is really annoying. I heard that two cows in Sun Village froze to death. There was also a person who slid from the stone bridge into the Xiushui River and froze to death."”
An Guogong said," It's good to die. If you die, you can enjoy life. Unlike me, I came to this world to suffer. I'm cold and hungry."”
Li Ren said," You can't say that. It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. As long as you're alive, there's a way.”
Duke An said," What's so good about it? Take my family for example. If I don't breathe, my family is dead." He hadn't washed his face or feet for more than twenty days, and he didn't have any firewood. Sometimes, he would only eat a raw fennel. When she felt cold, she would hide under the blanket as if she had been dead for three days.”
Li Ren said," Come to my house. My house has to cook a pot of pork chop every afternoon. Come to the fire and talk. Then, have dinner at my house and go back to sleep."”
Duke An said," People have a face. I still need a face. I come to the fire every day to talk and eat dinner every day. Am I not a local ruffian? This is not a peasant movement to eat big money."”
Li Ren said," What should we do then? If you continue like this, will your body be able to take it?"”
An Guogong said,"I still have the same words. It's good to die. If you die, everything will be over."”
After the Lantern Festival, the 45 days of cold weather finally stopped. The sun came out, and the flowers stopped flying. The temperature slowly rose, and the ice began to melt.
Spring had come, and the earth had regained its vitality. The loose frozen soil fell to the ground from the field and was wet. The old firewood broke and fell to the ground. The drooping spring harvest crops straightened up, and the new green gradually replaced the dark green.
Wan Ren was working in the dry land of Jinzui Ridge. His task today was to dig the edge of the broad bean field and extract the soil. As the saying goes, men look at the edge of the ground and women look at the edge of the cloth. Wan Ren was an old farmer. His land was neatly dug up, and there were a few small piles along the side of the land. The loose soil that fell from the edge of the ditch was also carried to the center of the ground. The pigweed on the ground was also shoveled away. The broad bean field was like a bride, wearing makeup and waiting for the wedding.
Tong Shanzuo passed by and stopped to chat with Wan Ren.
Tong Shan said," If this frost continues for another twenty days, not only will the pigs and cows freeze to death, but people will also freeze to death. Look at our houses. Several families have run out of food and are burning their beds and grass.”
Wan Ren said," We farmers rely on the heavens. If the heavens want you to live, you will have a way to live. If the heavens want you to die, you will only have a dead end. This kind of Ling Dongtian is probably hard to come by in a hundred years.”
"Even if we want to freeze people to death, we should kill those lazy people first," said Tong Shan.”
Wan Ren said,"How are Li Dad and the others who live not far from your house? Do you have any firewood to burn this time?"”
Tong Shan said," Look at this Li Dad. He doesn't even know how to make a match. The livelihood of the whole family depends on his crippled son, Xiu Meng. Xiu Meng is also very patient. Every day, she goes to the forbidden garden to pick up the fallen branches and leaves. She actually survived that period of time.”
Wan Ren said,"Fortunately, their family is small. There are only a father and son, but this child is only a few years old."”
" This isn't the most pitiful one," Tong Shan said." How many families in Maple Ridge are more pitiful than this?"”
The weather had been good this spring, and the spring harvest showed signs of a bumper harvest. After the spring harvest, the dry land was turned over and sweet potato seedlings were planted. The seedlings in the field were planted and grew green.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, it was as if someone had poked a hole in the sky, and water kept leaking out. Sometimes it was pouring rain, sometimes it was drizzling rain, and sometimes it was drizzling rain that stuck to you. The ponds and dams were full, and the water that could not hold it rushed down the old stream along the secondary mouth, or floated in the ridges. Water was flowing through the field ridges, and no one could stop it. The excess water flowed down into the Xiushui River, turned into the White Mud Lake, and then into Dongting Lake.
The fennel vines in the dry land were smashed to the ground by the rain. Once the rain stopped, these fennel vines that were stuck to the mud began to grow new roots. If you didn't tear off these new roots, this fennel would definitely not grow fennel.
In the two months after the Dragon Boat Festival, there were less than ten sunny days. It rained most of the time, and there were also dry days. The crops could only secretly grow, and they suffered more than people.
Duke An's family had already eaten up all the fennel and rice. No one could lend him rice, so he didn't want to lose face. He cooked peas at home as the staple food and added some salt.
Li Dad didn't farm. His family's income was the rent of the land. Fortunately, his ancestors left him a few buckets of land and a few acres of land. He rented these fields to others, and the people who planted his fields gave him some food. His son Xiu Meng did some firewood collecting things. The father and son lived like this.
In the 20th year of the Republic of China, the days of the previous year repeated again. It started to rain after the Dragon Boat Festival. It rained on and off for more than 60 days. There were only nine dry days and ten sunny days in the middle, and it rained the rest of the time. The excess rainwater not only flooded the ridges, but also washed away the embankment of the pond in front of the door. The two fields under the embankment were covered with thick silt, and the harvest was lost that year.
The most unlucky family was Mei Deng, who had three children. The older ones were daughters, Zi Hua and Cheng Hua. The youngest was a boy, only three years old, called Xiu Can.
On the day the pond collapsed, Zi Hua and Cheng Hua were picking up ears from the fields. The two little girls had sharp eyes and fast hands. In a short while, they picked up a small dustpan. "Big Sis, let's not pick them up. We'll wash them and go home."”
Zi Hua brought Orange Blossom to the water below the second entrance. The two of them cleaned the grass on their ears while washing them in the water. Suddenly, the dam collapsed, and the surging water blew the two of them into the old ditch. They rushed out a few hundred meters before a water barrier blocked their bodies. At this time, they had already choked to death by the flood, and their bodies were only found the next day.
That evening, the sky was about to turn dark. Mei Deng was very anxious when he did not see his daughters coming home. He had also searched the pond in front of the door and the fields below, but there was no trace of them. Moreover, he was not the only one who saw it at that time. Hundreds of people in Maple Ridge stood on the ground and looked at the collapsed pond embankment. The water had been drained, and the mud and branches that blocked the net were exposed at the bottom of the pond. It was extremely ugly. Everyone was thinking about how to restore the big pond embankment. Everyone knew that the two daughters of the Mei Deng family had not returned home, but no one thought that the flood had swallowed their bodies.
Mei Deng spent the night in fear and confusion. Her daughter's mother, Old Lady Wang, nagged for the whole night. She said,""Was my daughter kidnapped? Was she taken away by a wolf? Did she build a road and not know the way home?”Old Lady Wang had a hundred or a thousand thoughts, but she never thought that she would drown.
At daybreak, Mei Deng went out to look for his daughter. He ran back and forth for dozens of miles in Maple Ridge, Golden Mouth Ridge, but did not see his daughter. He then came to the Maple Ridge to patrol. Jiashan was fishing in the old stream when he suddenly saw the bodies of two girls. At this time, the purple and orange flowers were swollen and fat, so he couldn't recognize them. Jiashan saw Mei Deng and called her over to see if she was their daughter.
Mei Deng recognized his daughter as soon as he saw her. He carried her to the bank and sat on the ridge, crying. Jiashan said," It's not the time for you to cry yet. Get up, get up. We'll carry them home one by one."”
Mei Deng and Jia Shan each carried a child and walked into the cave. Mei Deng lived in the main hall. They passed through the main hall, the Zi alley, the ice hall, the long alley entrance, the Shi 'an hall, and then the golden hall, the Bi hall, and the Hui hall. When Old Lady Wang saw her daughter's body, she fell on her daughter's body and cried bitterly. In a short while, a whole hall was surrounded.
Uncle Ding lived very close to them, so he helped them find wooden planks and trees. Then, he asked a carpenter to make a box. That afternoon, he buried the two children in Gougong Mountain.
Mister Rain had also seen this tragic scene. Zi Hua was still his disciple, and he had started to take in female disciples this year. Now that Zi Hua was dead, he was also very sad, so he wrote a poem for Zi Hua," The rain continued for a long time, and the purple flowers fell sadly. Heaven opened its turbid eyes and sent disaster to the good people.
