Chapter 8 Section VII

"Stop!" Uncle shouted. The man's smile froze on his face, and his footsteps stopped. "Why are you here?" Uncle asked suspiciously. The man looked left and right, and replied: "I'm waiting for Master Ma here. I heard people say that his grandson is back, and he will bring him here to see his grandma. So I beg nearby in the morning and stay here in the afternoon." Wait. Today is the fifth day." It turned out to be like this. "Why didn't you say it when you asked for money just now?" asked the uncle. The man rubbed the back of his head and asked, "Have you seen me?" Before the uncle could answer, he said, "People won't even let me in. If you see me, I may not be able to see you. So I directly It is even more impossible to find Master Ma, so I have to ask the cemetery and wait here."

Grandpa asked, "What do you want me for?" The man glanced at me flatteringly, and said to his grandfather, "This is your grandson. What else can I do with you? Last time, Yuan Yu's dog bit several people, including me. Her son asked you for help, you It didn’t help. Later that dog was eaten by us. Now I suspect that the dog’s soul has possessed my body, otherwise I wouldn’t become the scary appearance I am now. I beg you to help me.” One year older than me People of the older generation called the second grandma Yuan Yuxi. The uncle waved his hand annoyedly: "Then I will disappoint you. My father doesn't care about these things anymore."

The man knelt down and wailed, "I don't expect you to save my life. I bullied Yuan Yuxi before, and I deserve it! I killed her dog, and I deserve it! I also ate its meat." , I really should!" The uncle was confused: "Then what are you doing here?" The man stretched out his hand, pointed back and forth, and said in pain, "I just ask you to blind me so that I can't see those unclean things..." In these surroundings, there are not only grandma's grave, but also several other graves scattered not far away. Hearing what the man said, I felt like there was a pair of eyes staring at us in every tomb, wondering if they had any objection to our sudden visit.It was as if they were watching my every move, but I couldn't see them.

Does grandma know I'm here? "I don't know what's wrong. After I ate that dog meat, I can see clearly what I couldn't see before." The man kowtowed like smashing garlic. Grandpa grabbed the excited uncle, stepped forward and gently persuaded him: "I won't save you like before, let alone harm you in reverse. I can't blind your eyes, you know it in your heart. Go back, My grandson finally came back, I also ask you to help me, let my grandson take a good look at his grandma, okay?" Seeing what grandpa said, the man had to step aside and watch us set off firecrackers on grandma's grave and place incense in front of the tombstone.

The uncle put the firecrackers on the top of the grave like a snake, and before lighting the fuse, he said: "Wake up your grandma, let her know that you are coming, and look at you." Mom put three sticks of incense in a glass jar filled with sand in front of the tombstone, and said, "Mom, your grandson saw you coming." At this time, I would like to go to that person and ask him if the grandma buried in the ground can really know of my arrival as they said. I couldn't help turning my head to look at him, only to find that he was staring at me, and that look made my heart shudder.

After paying homage to grandma, when we were about to leave, the man shouted: "Master Ma!" We stopped and looked at him, but he stopped talking and stared straight at Grandpa. Grandpa smiled dryly, walked up to him, and asked, "Do you feel like a dog?" I am very surprised.Although Grandpa hardened his heart and stopped helping others, he would not go so far as to be so ironic that he humiliated the person who begged him as a pestering dog. Mom also felt that what Grandpa said was too much, so she squinted at Grandpa and said, "Why do you say that about others?"

Uncle didn't take it seriously, and snorted at the man. "You're right! I feel like a dog," the man replied.
