Grandma is fine, isn't that right?
What does it mean? Is this boy hoping his grandmother will die?
Seeing that Lin Xi and the others were looking at him with eyes that said "What kind of unfilial descendant is this?", the boy quickly waved his hands to explain.
"No, no, don't get me wrong. I'm not cursing my grandma to death, but she deserves to die!"
Wait, that doesn't seem right?
He quickly changed his words.
"Oh, that's really not what I meant! I meant that my grandma was already dead, and now she's alive again!"
Finally, the boy explained the matter clearly in one breath.
When these words were spoken, the three people in front of him were shocked.
Ye Luoluo and Wu Bin both wanted to ask him if he was still asleep, but Lin Xi frowned and asked.
"She died and came back to life. Did your grandma fake her death? Did she survive for more than seven days after she died?"
In other words, it did not exceed her "first seven days".
The boy quickly shook his head.
"No, on the third day after my grandmother passed away, she suddenly sat up from her coffin..."
As the boy spoke, he unconsciously fell into memories.
The boy's name is Huang Tianqi. More than half a month ago, he was busy preparing for the final exams at school, and then he received a call from his father.
On the phone, his father sighed and told him that his grandmother had passed away.
Huang Tianqi was naturally very sad after hearing this. It might be because his grandmother was over 90 years old and was indeed not young anymore. She had been hospitalized several times before, so they, the younger generations, had already been mentally prepared.
Moreover, dying at the age of over 90 can be considered a happy funeral. His father said that grandma died at night and she never woke up again while sleeping in bed. It seems that grandma did not suffer any torture before her death.
As Huang Tianqi's grandmother's grandson, he naturally had to go back after his grandmother passed away.
If an elder in their hometown dies, if conditions permit, a mourning hall will be set up for descendants to keep vigil, usually for seven days, but later it was changed to three days for various reasons.
Huang Tianqi's father said that it was a happy funeral for his grandmother, and there was a lot of space in their hometown, so they could rent an ice coffin. Finally, he discussed it with his brothers and sisters and decided to keep vigil for the full seven days.
During these seven days, he and his brothers and sisters can take turns to guard the place in the first few days, so there is no need for Huang Tianqi to put down all his exams and come back to guard the place.
It was the first day of his grandmother's burial. He would definitely come back to keep watch all night, and then he would bury his grandmother the next day.
Huang Tianqi saw that his father had already arranged everything, and it was not easy for him to ask for leave to make up for several exams, so he agreed.
After that, he continued to review at school, and then asked for two days off in advance, planning to go back the day before his grandmother's funeral.
Everything was normal at first. His father would contact him every day in the evening when he was not so busy to tell him that there was no problem at home.
On the fourth day after his grandmother passed away, his father suddenly called him.
Huang Tianqi felt puzzled and was wondering if something had happened at home. When he answered the phone, he suddenly heard his father's tone on the phone was very strange.
His father said, "If you haven't applied for leave yet, then don't do so. Just prepare for the exam."
Huang Tianqi was wondering why his father said that. Could it be that they had already moved up the burial date for grandma and didn't want to wait for him to return?
Before he could ask, he heard his father continue.
"Your grandma, your grandma came back to life last night..."
Huang Tianqi: "???"
No, this is Chinese, why doesn’t he seem to understand?
Huang Tianqi didn't believe it at all, and even thought that his father might be lying because he was too sad.
"Dad, you're not awake yet, or you just had a dream. My grandma has been dead for three days, how could she be alive again?!"
His father's tone became more serious in anger.
"Would I lie to you about something like this? Your grandma is alive. She came back to life in front of me and your uncle last night!"
Speaking of this, Huang Tianqi obviously felt that his father's voice began to tremble.
He began to tell what happened last night.
Last night was the third night since the old lady passed away, and it was his and his brother's turn to keep vigil.
There are three siblings in their family. Logically, they can arrange one person to guard the place every day, so that they can complete two rounds of guarding. On the last day, they can wait for the eldest grandson Huang Tianqi to guard the place.
There was only one person in the entire mourning hall late at night. The people in the funeral procession had also rested. It was a bit scary to be alone facing the ice coffin and a pile of wreaths and white cloth.
Even if the person lying in the ice coffin is their mother, they will still be affected by this gloomy aura.
So they discussed it and Huang Tianqi's father and uncle would guard the tricycle together, and their sister and brother-in-law would guard the tricycle together. This way, several people would work harder to guard the tricycle, and there would be more people to keep them company at night, so it would not be so scary, and there would be someone to talk to to help them out.
On the third night, it was Huang Tianqi's father and his uncle's turn.
Just like before, after everyone else left, the two of them moved a small stool and sat down at the door of the mourning hall, chatting from time to time and occasionally looking at their phones.
I thought this night would go as smoothly as the first night.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, they suddenly heard a series of strange noises coming from the quiet house.
It sounded like a box being pushed open, or knocking, or groaning.
Huang Tianqi's father initially thought he had misheard, and after looking around, he didn't find anything.
His uncle also heard it, but what he thought of was the mouse.
This is the bad thing about living in the countryside. There are a lot of rats and insects, especially mice. It is very annoying when they make some noise in the middle of the night.
What's more, the sudden noise at this time is so scary.
Uncle got up and planned to check every corner of the house to drive away the mouse.
Just as Jie Ru stood up, he heard a knocking sound that was clearer than before.
And that knocking sound seemed to be coming from the ice coffin?!
Could it be that a mouse got in?
But this shouldn't be the case.
Because the temperature was quite high those days, they kept the ice coffin plugged in and the transparent lid closed to effectively preserve the body.
And after moving the old man's body into the ice coffin, they never opened it again.
The ice coffin is also sealed tightly, so it should be impossible for a mouse to get in.
There was a noise coming from the ice coffin that seemed to be wrong, so the uncle walked over and planned to check it out.
When he got there, he saw that his dead old mother in the ice coffin had opened her eyes!
Uncle was so frightened that he almost lost his soul and just stood there stiffly.
After pausing for two seconds, he rubbed his eyes vigorously and then looked at the ice coffin again.
When he looked up, he found that his old mother's eyes were still open!
Uncle was in a bad state, so he quickly called out to his older brother at the door, who was Huang Tianqi's father, in a trembling voice.
"Big, big brother, come quickly, something happened to mom!"
Huang Tianqi's father hurried over when he heard it, and then looked at his old mother with her eyes open, and his face also changed drastically with fear.
They only remembered that their mother's eyes were closed after she passed away, so how come they suddenly opened?
The two had no idea what was going on, and dared not act rashly.
When they were planning to call their younger sister and brother-in-law over, they saw their old mother suddenly roll her eyes, look towards them, and open her mouth to say to them.
"Let me out now."
Huang Tianqi's father and uncle: "..."
The two stood there stunned for two seconds, then let out a scream of terror in unison.
"ah---!"
In the end, everyone around was woken up by their shouting, and their sister and brother-in-law were the first to come out.
The two hurriedly asked their two brothers what happened, and then saw them pointing at their old mother who had "resurrected" in the ice coffin: "Mom, Mom, she's alive, she's alive!"
As to whether the baby was really alive or they had seen a ghost, the two were not clear at the time.
They only knew that this matter was completely beyond their understanding, and they were so scared that they didn't dare to do anything.
My sister didn't expect something like this to happen, and she and her brother-in-law were both scared and their faces turned pale.
They personally confirmed that the old lady had passed away. She had stopped breathing and had no heartbeat. Even when they saw the old lady in bed that morning, her body was stone cold!
How could he possibly come back to life again?
The old lady in the ice coffin saw that all her three children had come, but none of them came to let her out. She was so angry that she knocked on the lid of the ice coffin and cursed.
"What are you guys doing? Get me out right now! I'm not even dead yet, and you've locked me up. Are you planning to bury me alive?"
This familiar voice and tone really is their old mother!
Finally, they looked at each other, and being urged by the old mother who kept holding the ice coffin, they finally mustered up the courage to walk to the side of the ice coffin and opened the lid.
The old lady was over 90 years old before she passed away. Her lumbar spine and back were severely damaged and she needed someone to support her to get up. She could not sit up upright on her own in such a small coffin.
But at this moment, none of the children dared to rush over to help her.
This is really too scary and too unbelievable.
What they didn't expect was that the old lady who needed their support to sit up "before death" actually didn't need anyone's support now. She just held on to the edge of the coffin with her two bony hands and slowly sat up.
The people present were so frightened again that they dared not breathe.
The old lady accepted it well. After realizing that she was in the ice coffin, she glanced at the height from the ground and probably felt that it was impossible for her to get down by herself, so she said to her daughter.
"Girl, come and help me down."
Aunt Huang Tianqi actually didn’t dare to go over there.
After all, she is his biological mother, and so far, she doesn't seem to have done anything particularly strange.
Is it possible to say that she was really just in a state of "pseudo-death" before, and now she has regained consciousness?
With such speculation, Aunt Huang Tianqi was not so scared anymore.
