Father and uncle discussed talking together on the phone to prepare for the funeral for grandpa, Yang Jingxing couldn't help much, just listened from the sidelines.

Yang Chengyi didn't pay much attention to introducing distant relatives or friends to Yang Jingxing before, but now he also called Yang Jingxing to tell who he was calling, such as the descendants of grandpa's father's brother are also grandpa, not to mention grandpa's sister, although he is married to Anhui, but his closest relatives......

At two o'clock in the morning, Lu Laosan came and brought filial piety cloth and many other things, Lu Laosan is a person who understands the rules and loves to talk about the rules, insisting on wearing filial piety cloth and tying straw ropes with the Yang family brothers, persuasion is useless, he also makes a phone call to arrange Jiuchun's affairs.

After all, it was the old county magistrate who passed away, and the Jiuchun County Government meant that the government set up a funeral and memorial committee, and Yang Chengyi and Yang Chengguang also accepted it.

Lu Laosan doesn't care whether the government is government or not, he has to follow the rules. According to the rules, you have to go to the hospital to find a place to burn paper money now, and then move the old man's body to the door panel that he brought with him.

Yang Chengyi and Yang Chengguang are willing to accept Lu Laosan's kindness.

After Yang Jingxing sent filial piety cloth to his mother and aunt, he followed his father out of the hotel. Lu Laosan also brought people, two decent people in their thirties, driving an off-road vehicle, with the rear seats down, stuffed with a temporary new and old wooden door panel that now almost only exists in the Jiuchun funeral shop, and asked Boss Yang if he wanted to look at it.

The door panel will be used again tomorrow, Lu Laosan asked the helper to open the room to rest, and a few people walked to the hospital two or three meters away.

Yang Chengyi is still quite qualified, and decided to burn paper next to the gate of the hospital, Lu Laosan said that there was nothing wrong, and the phone call to notify Jiuchun to start there.

At this time, Yang Chengguang's family, in addition to his daughter Yang Yun and relatives and friends who accompanied her, and then Lu Laosan helped arrange it, burning paper money and setting off artillery battles would make a lot of noise, so that the old man could easily find his way home.

Squatting and burning the money, Yang Chengyi and Yang Chengguang talked to their father again.

Although Lu Laosan was wearing a filial piety cloth, he didn't have anything to say, and after helping to burn a few piles of valuables, he spoke to Yang Jingxing: "Come here in the afternoon?"

Yang Jingxing nodded.

Lu Laosan said: "Sun is not filial to his ancestors, he is not sad, your grandfather has enjoyed the scenery and happiness all his life, and his children and grandchildren are filial and obedient, and he has no ......worries about it."

Fortunately, it was the middle of the night, and a few people wearing filial piety cloths who burned paper money outside the hospital gate did not attract much attention, and after burning the prescribed number of ties, several people stood in place.

The two brothers Yang Chengyi can now sort it out with the help of Lu Laosan, and the procedure is a lot of terms that Yang Jingxing doesn't understand......

Back at the hotel, Lu Laosan persuaded the family to take a good rest, and when he returned to Jiuchun, there would be no chance to close his eyes in two or three days.

Go to the next room to see, grandma is still sad, Xiao Shuxia didn't act delicate, and she didn't pursue good looks wearing filial piety.

Back in the man's room, Yang Chengyi and his son Kaori were lying on the same bed, somehow reminiscing about their youth or youth with their younger brother on the other bed.

Yang Chengyi fell ill: "Some things, how much psychological preparation have you made, you were still caught off guard when you came." ”

Yang Chengguang sighed: "...... Blame me, I didn't look good. ”

Yang Chengyi lay down and shook his head: "...... Yang Jingxing, when you go home, you will be responsible for arranging those relatives who come from afar, and if the hotels in the town are not enough, you will go to the county, and I will arrange a car to pick you up. ”

Yang Chengguang said: "I will arrange these things. ”

Yang Chengyi said: "The two of us have a lot of things, Yang Yun is not taking a few days off, and the two brothers and sisters will help us do this together." ”

......

Yang Jingxing was not sure if his father and uncle had fallen asleep in the two hours when they closed their eyes, and at six o'clock in the morning, the two brothers got up together, washed up, and persuaded Yang Jingxing to sleep again.

After wasting a lot of breakfast, a large group of Jiuchun people went to the hospital, and it was obviously grandma who was not in good health.

The body was placed on the door panel of the cart and then carried out and loaded onto the hearse. When his son wanted to follow the hearse, Yang Chengyi didn't drive it.

Grandma was persuaded to get into Yang Jingxing's car, and of course her mother and aunt continued to take care of her. Lu Laosan arranged for Yang Jingxing to step forward, so he could drive faster, without waiting. But Grandma didn't look back.

At nine o'clock, when Qi Qingnuo called, Yang Jingxing was already almost Jiuchun.

Qi Qingnuo's tone was more careful: "Hey, are you okay?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Let's go, a little last night." ”

Qi Qingnuo asked softly after a while, "When will you return to Jiuchun?"

Yang Jingxing said: "It's almost there, grandma is in my car." ”

Qi Qingnuo seemed to be saying something with his breathing voice, and then he really spoke quite gently: "Then I won't say it...... Waiting for your call. ”

Yang Jingxing also said softly.

Xiao Shuxia, whose eyes were half-open and half-closed on the co-pilot, sobered up a little: "Whose phone is it?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Nuonuo." ”

Xiao Shuxia just nodded.

did not stop in Jiuchun County, and went directly to Yang Chengguang's house. Yang Yun seemed to have been waiting in front of the house arranged for a funeral for a long time, his eyes were red, standing beside Yang Jingxing's car, a grandmother screamed, and cried again.

The grandmother was helped out of the car, waiting for the car behind, crying as if it was more fierce than last night, and the two daughters-in-law showed their due attitude. There is also a custom that relatives and friends want to praise their daughter-in-law for crying well, there are so many people, and there is a lot of praise, and the requirements are much lower than in the old man's story.

In front of the house, there is an obituary issued in the name of the county CPPCC: Comrade Yang Guoyun, a member of the Communist Party of China @ Party and the former head of Jiuchun County, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, unfortunately passed away at 0:35 on December 10, 2007 at the age of 72 due to ineffective medical treatment......

also briefly touted the life of the old revolutionary, although my grandmother revealed that it was already a ceasefire period when my grandfather went to war, the logistics were very good, and the bullets were used to hunt game, but the obituary was completely different.

The list of the funeral office was also announced, more than a dozen people, Yang Jingxing recognized a few names, all of them were officials, but now there seem to be only two people at the scene, and the secretary of the political and legal committee who is still in office seems to be really sad to comfort the family.

Yang Jingxing received a text message from Qi Qingnuo: I told them, they all told you to mourn and change

Yang Jingxing made a brief call to Li Yingzhen, and Li Yingzhen was very sorry. Then not long after, Yang Jingxing received a text message from An Xin, An Xin said it very well, and the text was crepe.

Yu Xinting's text message came a little late: I wish your grandfather a good day in heaven, don't be sad, you are his pride.

Yang Jingxing replied quickly thank you.

When it is ready, the body gets off the car, there is a special one, and the government funeral personnel also understand, and then the custom begins.

The body was carried into the house first, and they had to wash their faces and feet, and change into "old clothes", which were all matters for their sons and daughters, and they had to avoid outsiders. Yang Yun didn't follow up with his grandparents' bedroom, but Yang Jingxing helped carry the basin and took down the towel.

Next, it is to burn the scriptures, wrap the ashes, take the road fee, and then burn incense, retain, cover the face, and turn to the ......

Moving to the mourning hall located in the open space next to it, the Taoist priest's team began their own work, and many people watched the excitement......

Before lunch, when she was buried, Xiao Shuxia was a little inferior in crying.

The funeral committee discussed with the family, and the Taoist priest gave a reference opinion, and finally decided that the memorial service would be held the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow would be buried.

By this time, Yang Jingxing had already met many people, but it was not an important intimate relationship, and many people were still in the mood to ask what singers Yang Jingxing knew and what songs he could play.

Lunch is still to be eaten, there are more than a dozen tables in the restaurant in the town, and the day after tomorrow, it will definitely not be solved by this small place, and it will definitely have to be an open-air field.

Yang Chengyi and Yang Chengguang didn't have time to eat properly, so they thanked these relatives and friends who came to express their concern and help when they heard the news, and then the two worked together to make a big list. No matter what those distant relatives think of the Yang family, none of them who should report the funeral at this time can be pulled down.

After being urged to take a few bites of food, Yang Jingxing went to negotiate business with the hotel or the so-called big hotel. These people who run the hotel are very business-minded, and they have long mastered the business information, and there are only about 20 rooms that want to take over the business of the Yang family.

Yang Jingxing called Qi Qingnuo while he was busy, and estimated that he seemed to be able to return to Puhai on the weekend.

Qi Qingnuo said: "My mother said that you should accompany your father more at this time. ”

Yang Jingxing said: "I will pay attention to this. ”

Qi Qingnuo asked, "Did they call you?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Wang Rui called before, I was busy and didn't answer, I replied to a text message, and I also received a few text messages, but I haven't replied yet." ”

Qi Qingnuo said: "I'll help you say ...... I'll tell Yu Xinting when I get to school. ”

Yang Jingxing said: "Professor Li told them, and they all sent text messages. ”

Qi Qingnuo laughed dryly: "I'm stupid." ”

Yang Jingxing was gentle: "I'm fine, you're stupid, it's called joy and mourning in our place." ”

Qi Qingnuo said: "Joy and mourning, let's say so. ”

Yang Jingxing said: "The standard of Jiuchun is high, and I only found out today. First of all, the old man must be too old, secondly, he must die well, and also, he wants a family photo, at least the grandson is going to be an adult, I am fortunate to have you. ”

Qi Qingnuo smiled a little, but it was also brief, and asked again, "Have you eaten?"

......

Later, Yang Jingxing was ordered to pick up his aunt and grandmother who were almost in Jiuchun, the last time he saw his aunt was three years ago, but after talking on the phone, the family affection did not show a little rustiness.

Obituaries are also posted on some bulletin boards in the Jiuchun urban area, and there are also outside the station, which is also a local characteristic.

On the way and when he was waiting for his aunt and grandmother, Yang Jingxing received comforting text messages from Guo Ling and He Peiyuan successively, which was considered to be a collection of 306, and he took this time to reply to all of them to express his gratitude.

When the bus arrived, Yang Jingxing stood at the door of the car, greeting her aunt who had not changed much, and her aunt did not look very sad, and praised Yang Jingxing for growing taller.

My aunt's son and daughter-in-law Yang Jingxing have met, and this is the first time that my daughter and son-in-law have met. The men wore supermarket-bought suits, and the women wore gold and silver, but they were not superior.

Yang Jingxing was very close to the elders, helping to carry the duffel bag and helping his aunt and grandmother to get into the car. My cousin still remembers that when Yang Chengyi took his parents to Anhui two years ago, he drove Yang Jingxing's current car, and his cousin lamented that Yang Jingxing was much taller than his son. My cousin's son is studying in Jiangxia and is a junior.

The so-called close relatives, my cousin only learned today that Yang Jingxing was still in college, but what is the conservatory, my aunt's son-in-law guessed: "It must be a class of undergraduates, right?"

After arriving, according to the rules, Yang Chengyi and Yang Chengguang knelt down to welcome the arrival of their aunt, and their cousins took the filial piety cloth and put it on. My aunt first affirmed the filial piety of the younger generation to her brother, and then went to the spirit to express her sadness, feeling that the previous peace was accumulating emotions.

Without Yang Chengyi's instructions, Yang Jingxing asked his cousin if they had eaten, saying that if they were not hungry, they had not eaten, so they would first send them to the hotel to put down their things and pick them up, and then go to the restaurant to eat.

Uncle Cousin hadn't made arrangements yet, Xiao Shuxia's call came again, saying that the grandmother who was talking to her sister-in-law was holding her granddaughter at the moment, and she was eagerly calling her grandson, feeling intermittently sad.

Pu Yin is really too young, after the teachers, Wei Junyu called Yang Jingxing to express his condolences, and then there were more text messages or something, and the classmates did not say it, and the musicians of the orchestra also showed their friendship.

After five o'clock in the afternoon, Qi Qingnuo called Yang Jingxing: "I was delayed at noon, and I came over at three o'clock, fortunately, Professor Li came...... In less than two minutes, will you listen to it on the phone?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Okay, let her play." ”

Qi Qingnuo said to Yu Xinting: "Play it again, he's listening...... I turn on hands-free. ”

Yu Xinting said: "I start with the last few bars of the concerto......"

Qi Qingnuo said: "Okay." ”

A few seconds later, the sound of the piano came through the poor quality of communication, and Yu Xinting began with the penultimate measure of the concerto, which seemed less abrupt.

After five closing measures of the concerto, there is silence for two or three seconds, and the piano resumes as a variation on the first theme of the second movement of the concerto, also at a slightly faster tempo.

In the less than two-minute cadenza clip, Yu Xinting referred to the Gluttonous Cat Etude to a large extent in her creation, but because of the length and material, Yu Xinting's intention to express more made the music seem a little messy and loose. Of course, for an average undergraduate, this assignment is quite well completed.

After the piano sounded, Qi Qingnuo first said to Yu Xinting: "It's really good...... What do you think?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I play well and write well...... I have a few opinions, you can refer to them, Professor Li decides. The opening variation is good and more stunning, but the subsequent transition is a bit stiff, so don't be so anxious to express the alternating chords. ”

Li Yingzhen seemed to say it in advance: "I'll just say it." ”

Yang Jingxing continued: "The subsequent triplet is played a little softly, and it feels like it has not reached the original intention of writing, and the repetition of octaves is even more undesirable. ”

Li Yingzhen helped: "Listen, what are you looking at absent-mindedly!"

It shouldn't be Qi Qingnuo who was criticized, she snorted: "...... I can change this, can I change it three times? ”

Yang Jingxing said: "Yes, and then ......" He didn't have a few opinions, it was simply a composition exchange class in the air, Qi Qingnuo listened and analyzed and discussed, Li Yingzhen was mostly supportive and agreed, and Yu Xinting almost didn't say anything.

After more than ten minutes of this phone call, Yang Jingxing finally said: "That's pretty much it." ”

Qi Qingnuo said: "Okay, it's all written down, Teacher Yang, I'll do it right away." ”

Yang Jingxing heyed: "It's hard work...... Let's eat first, the two of you must be working together efficiently. ”

Qi Qingnuo asked, "Okay...... What's the matter?" The gentle and caring tone was not for Yang Jingxing.

Sure enough, Yu Xinting's voice: "It's okay." ”

Qi Qingnuo changed back to his normal tone: "You are busy first, and you will call later depending on the situation." ”
