积习难改

老王是殡仪馆的工作人员。这天傍晚，他拿着扫帚，在殡仪馆院内清扫地面的落叶。

扫着扫着，老王无意间一抬头，远远瞥见一号治丧大厅门口似乎有一个人影。恍惚间，老王感觉那背影是一个老太太的，她弓着背，拄着拐杖，步履蹒跚地走进大厅敞开的大门。

这么晚了，会是谁呢？老王寻思等老太太出来后过去问一下。就在这时，老王的手机响了，办公室黄主任吩咐老王，明天有人要来办丧事，让他准备一下。接完电话，老王揉揉眼睛，再去看一号大厅门口，瞅了许久，也没见老太太出来。纳闷之余，老王干脆就走进了一号大厅，想去看个究竟。奇怪的是，大厅里空空如也，哪有什么人？老王挠挠花白的头发，心想，难不成自己老眼昏花，刚才看花了眼？

第二天下午，办丧事的那家人来了，他们租用的是一号厅。听了黄主任和死者家属的交谈，老王才知道，死者是一个姓吴的老太太。想到昨天傍晚的怪事，老王心里咯噔了一下。

灵堂布置好后，老王打开音响设备，准备按惯例播放哀乐。可不知为啥，音响显示屏上信号一切正常，可就是没有声音。老王把几个按钮调试了好几次，依然没有一点儿用。家属们急了，都围了过来，吴老太太的大孙子恰好在一家歌厅当音响师，看到老王急得满头大汗，就自告奋勇来试一试。不承想，无论他怎么调试，就是放不出声音！

办丧事没有哀乐，成何体统？大伙儿都急得火烧火燎，老王掏出手机，正准备给黄主任打電话，吴老太太的二儿媳发话了：“妈在世的时候，没事总爱往小区跳广场舞的地方跑。虽说老人家腿脚不利索，可她喜欢坐在旁边看人家跳，经常一去就是半天。是不是这哀乐她不感兴趣，想听广场舞曲呢？”

大家一听，不免觉得有些荒唐，只是，与其再找人折腾，倒不如试一下。于是，吴老太太的大孙子重新摆弄起音响。还别说，一番鼓捣后，轻松欢快的广场舞曲马上环绕着整个大厅响了起来。老王一颗悬着的心总算落了下来，他呆呆地站着，搓搓手，犯起了嘀咕：“这事儿咋这么怪呢？”

此时，外面西北风呼呼地吹着，大厅里寒气逼人。家属们找到老王，要求开空调取暖。这时，怪事又出现了，几台空调开关按下后，等了好久，丝毫没有反应！整个大厅的线路并没有问题，灵堂正前方的显示屏依然亮闪闪的，广场舞曲也响得正欢。一台空调出故障，很正常，老王也没少遇到过；所有空调同时出现故障，老王觉得就难以理解了！再联想到刚才音响的事，老王不禁暗暗心惊，该不会真是吴老太太在暗中操纵吧？

好在吴老太太的家属这次并没有太着急，只听吴老太太的二儿媳又说道：“咱妈活着的时候一向节俭，不管大冷天还是大热天都不用空调，这习惯一时半会儿当然改不了。”

老王见别的家属都没有提出意见，就顺势说：“照我说，这事儿好办。既然老人生前有节俭的好习惯，咱做晚辈的，何不最后顺着她一次，也算是尽尽孝道！”大伙儿同意了。

哀悼仪式结束后，吴老太太的遗体要进火化间了，家属们七手八脚地拿出从家里带来的老人生前使用过的物件，准备一起烧给老人。结果在一大堆衣物被褥中，老王一眼看见了一根拐杖夹杂其中！

顿时，老王整个人惊呆了，想起了昨天黄昏看到的一幕……看来，昨天是吴老太太拄着拐杖，提前到殡仪馆来熟悉场地，好方便办丧事时保持生前的老习惯呀。
