Before Zhou Jiguo entered the house, Aunt Tuesday and Aunt Wednesday each held a strip of milky white linen, tied it to his waist, and tied it to his forehead.

This is the standard dress of filial piety and virtuous grandchildren in my hometown, and it stands to reason that I should wear linen and filial piety, but this side is too poor, and over the years, some of the customs and exquisiteness of the older generation have been simplified.

Zhou Jiguo straightened the white cloth on his head, then knelt in front of the coffin with a solemn face, and kowtowed to his father three times.

When his forehead pressed against the cold ground, he regretted in his heart, if he could have resolutely taken his father out to live with him, could his father not have left so early. Knowing that his father didn't have it at this time in his previous life, he actually still had luck in his heart, thinking that he would be fine if he led the old man to check his body and prescribed medicine to take it, he really took it for granted.

"Okay, your father knows your filial piety, come, don't kneel first, go into the house to discuss what to do after your father's death?" Zhou Laosan is a pragmatic person, he has been arguing with his sister-in-law and second sister-in-law here these days, he is really annoyed, if it weren't for the face of the late eldest brother, he would have picked his son and left. Now that the eldest nephew is finally back, the eldest brother's family has someone in charge, and I believe that he will be able to sort out a charter soon.

Zhou Jiguo also knew which was more important, knelt on the ground and was silent for a moment, put his hands on the ground, and the people also stood up and followed a group of relatives into his father's house.

Originally, the guests were served in the hall, but now the coffin is parked in the hall, and everyone can only go to the inner room to talk about things.

Zhou Jiguo took the bench handed over by his second uncle, found a place to sit down, and asked, "Why didn't my father have it?"

He pondered this question all the way, when he took his father to check his body, people said that there was no serious illness, the only thing that could be life-threatening was high blood pressure, could it be that after his father finished eating the medicine he prescribed, he was reluctant to buy it again, and then the blood pressure was too high and the person passed?

Zhou Yaomu looked at the crying sister-in-law, and then at the second brother who couldn't see the end, sighed, and could only explain the situation by himself.

It turned out that the village had recently come down with a document on the return of private land to the public, and without giving anyone time to ponder, almost immediately confiscated all the land in the hands of the common people.

When Zhou Jiguo came back, he mentioned this to his father, and he was afraid that the old farmer who had been farming all his life would not understand it at this time, and he couldn't stand it when he was in a hurry. When Zhou Yaosen heard his son say this, he had the idea of doubting the letter, after all, the country had just put down the land for a few years, how could he say that he would take it back again, and after the boss left, he was worried for a while, and saw that there was no rumor in the village, so he gradually put this matter behind.

Just as Zhou Jiguo thought, after Zhou Yaosen finished eating the few blood pressure pills that his son bought for him, the first was that he didn't have time to go to the county hospital, and the second was that he was reluctant to spend those few dollars, so he didn't take his high blood pressure seriously, after all, wasn't he okay before his son took him to the examination.

That's it, after a few months, who knew that the village suddenly convened a meeting of the villagers and read out the above document, that is, the village was going to establish a people's commune, and the land in the hands of the people would be owned by the collective.

The village chief publicized it very well according to the document, and said that the benefits that everyone would get if the land was classified as public ownership in the future. But Zhou Yaosen just couldn't understand that he finally managed to become the master of the house, but the family didn't work for a few years, so why did he become a long-term worker again.

Some people just love to drill the horns, Zhou Yaosen is such a person, he is so panicked that he can't sleep at night, he collapsed on the way to the village meeting and never got up again two days later.

Li Rucui don't look at the usual joy, she has no idea when she encounters serious things, she will only cry and scold at home every day, crying that she is pitiful, she has no man at a young age, scolding God for being unfair, she knew that Zhou Yaosen was short-lived, she said that she would not marry into the Zhou family to suffer.

Uncle Tuesday and Uncle Wednesday rushed to see the sister-in-law's style and almost fell down, but they were brothers, and they couldn't bear to let the eldest brother die and no one cared about it, so they could only suppress their temper, find someone to take a coffin on credit, and then hurriedly send a telegram to Zhou Jiguo and Zhou Jifu's brothers who were outside, after all, the father went, and the son must go home to be a filial son and grandson.

In Zhou Laosan's words, I have raised you for so many years, so it is for this time, so I have to go under the knife, and I must come back as a son.

Zhou Jiguo listened to the third uncle's narration, and was silent for a while.

"By the way, why did you come back alone, Erbao, didn't you write to say that you went to take refuge, didn't you ask him to come back with you?"

"Second brother, I sent a telegram to Erbao. Uncle Wednesday said with some dissatisfaction, among these nephews, he is optimistic about Dabao.

His words also indirectly showed that it was impossible for Zhou Jifu not to know the news of his father's death, and now that he didn't come back, the expressions on everyone's faces became a little subtle.

"That's right, Dabao, you said, is Erbao behind, is he delayed, you are also an elder brother, why don't you wait for your younger brother, just come back yourself first and let the family see your younger brother, your father is not here now, I will count on a few of your brothers, you have to be good." Li Rucui didn't believe that the second child didn't come back, and she cried again as she spoke.

"Okay, sister-in-law, don't make trouble. "Aunt Wednesday doesn't look down on her sister-in-law, she looks like a tigress when she's fine, and she's nothing when she gets to the real chapter.

"Mother, the second brother didn't come back, he received the telegram and went to find me, asking me to go home to mourn my father, he said that he was too busy with work over there and couldn't spare time to come back. Zhou Jiguo didn't have the heart to hide it for Zhou Jifu at all, so he told the reason in front of everyone.

Guys, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to answer this question.

It stands to reason that such an unfilial person, everyone must collectively criticize it, but just now I saw that the sister-in-law is not ordinary to the second child, if you say something unpleasant, it will not be good to make the sister-in-law anxious. These days, they are going crazy when they listen to their sister-in-law's crying, and they wish she could keep their mouths shut.

"No way, your second brother is not like that. Li Rucui screamed, and pounced over and wanted to slap her eldest son, "You have a bad conscience, your father just left, you dare to arrange your brother like this, are you worthy of your father, are you right about me." ”

Zhou Jiguo frowned and looked at his mother-in-law who looked like a madwoman, and spoke slowly, his tone was slow but clear, "Mother, that's how you see your eldest son." Okay, I won't argue with you, after all, my father is still outside, if I break with you at this time, it will also let outsiders see the joke of our Zhou family. In this way, I know the phone number of the second brother's unit, let's go to the town and call him, and you personally ask him why he didn't come back. If you really don't want to see my eldest son so much, then you will wait for my second brother to come back and then Zhang Luo, I am the same as my younger brothers, just follow behind the second brother and kowtow to my father a few more times. ”
