Chapter 6 People from Home
It wasn't until the day before the first seven days that the relatives of Jia Aiguo's hometown arrived, and it is said that they still hurried over overnight. This time, there were a total of five people, three men and two women in his hometown, and Jia Lei only knew one of them! It was Aunt Chunxing who pounced on her as soon as she opened the door and hugged herself into her arms and cried.
said that she was an aunt, but in fact she was not very old, only in her fifties.
She is Jia Aiguo's aunt, and now one of the only two people in the three generations of the Jia family, Jia Lei remembers that he had seen her once in his previous life, but that time they met.
In her previous life, she was the only one who came to her hometown, and she only stayed for two days. In those two days, she hugged herself and cried every day, and when she left, she stuffed 50 yuan to Jia Lei.
That's all the money that Aunt Chunxing can take out except for the travel expenses, except for two ten-yuan and one five-yuan change, the rest is a piece of two yuan change.
In the last life, my aunt and grandmother had saved all the private money they had saved all their lives to buy train tickets, and she had to pour the train from her hometown to SH several times, and she didn't even have money to buy food!
The reason why more people came to this hometown than last time was because Jia Lei's lies were immediately credited.
After Jia Aiguo's death, he changed from a martyr in his previous life to a hero in this life.
The old family came with the government this time, and all the expenses along the way were paid by the state, and they didn't spend a penny themselves! Many people wanted to take the opportunity to come to SH to open their eyes, and it is said that dozens of people from their hometown quarreled over earning quotas, and the final result was that each room in their hometown sent someone to come.
The people who came were Jia Aiguo's uncle and grandfather in the long room, an uncle and grandfather in the third room and a cousin in the fourth room, and the two daughters were Aunt Chunxing and her daughter Sanni.
It is said that Sanni, a girl with a foreign surname, can't compete with the Jia family, but her aunt and grandmother bite her to death, she is the only relative of Jia Aiguo in three generations, and she has to occupy two places. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come!
The government worker demanded that there must be immediate family members, and the aunt and grandmother succeeded.
My aunt and grandmother hugged Jia Lei and cried when she entered the door like last time, during which she not only cried about Jia Aiguo's unlucky life experience, but also pulled out the three generations of the old Jia family.
Jia Aiguo's grandfather died in the war at the age of 38, and his grandmother became Kefu's widow!
Jia Aiguo's father died at the age of 37 on the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, a martyr!
Jia Aiguo himself was only 35 years old when he died, a national hero!
Hearing this, Jia Lei was happy, everyone in his hometown is a short-lived ghost! None of them lived past the age of 40!
No wonder he died before he got married in his last life, he was born in 81 and was 37 years old in 2017, according to the tradition of the Jia family, he should die!
Aunt and grandmother cried, no one else came up, Sanni squeezed and stood in the corner and didn't dare to speak, the eldest grandfather is a village cadre, and now he is busy talking to the leader who sent them over, after the cousin came in, An Lishu knelt down to burn paper and kowtow, which is good.
Because Jia Aiguo saved a lot of people this time, almost every day, someone came to pay respects to him, burned paper and incense, and even the house was blackened, and the next-door neighbor Zhao Juan had already put forward his opinions several times.
The third grandfather took a few pieces of paper from his cousin's hand and squatted and burned them, and then his eyes began to look around. At this time, Jia Lei struggled out of his aunt's arms under the pretext of returning the gift, you must know that my aunt and grandmother have been on the train for five or six days in a row, and there is a smell on her body! At this time, the train is stuffy and the tanker has no air conditioning, not to mention how bad the smell is.
"Sanni, come and kowtow to your cousin!" "My aunt and grandmother greeted, and Sanni really knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, and they all rang loudly! When she got up, her forehead was red, and Jia Lei was quite moved.
You must know that there are one or two hundred people who have come to offer incense in the past few days, and there are almost no people who are so sincere!
The people of the government sent the people of the Jia family and left, leaving only a clerk waiting downstairs, and the people of the Jia family stayed in the house for a meeting to discuss Jia Aiguo's future affairs and Jia Lei's future support.
****
The eldest grandfather proposed to take Jia Aiguo's ashes back to his hometown with Jia Lei, and the ashes were buried directly in the ancestral grave. Since Jia Lei is the Jia family, he should naturally go back to his hometown to go to school, anyway, Jia Aiguo's house has always been occupied, and Jia Lei doesn't have to clean it up if he lives in it directly.
"Who lives in the old house?" asked Jia Lei.
"It's me. The cousin pointed to himself and said that he had seven brothers and sisters in his family, and the cousins added up to more than 20 and were all born to a grandfather.
Jia Aiguo had a good relationship with him, and after the house in his hometown was vacated, he let him live in the wing room to show him the house.
He now has two sons and a daughter, and the wing room is not enough to live in, and he has already moved to the main house to live, his younger brother got married last year and has no place to live, so he squeezed in to occupy a room, Jia Lei is afraid that he will have to live in a room with furniture if he wants to go back.
Jia Lei rolled his eyes when he heard this, he had never seen his house in his previous life when he returned to his hometown, there was only one yard, and the small villa in the yard was still his uncle's house!
He never knew that he actually had a house! You must know that his second girlfriend broke up with him because he didn't have a house, and although he was a waiter who came from other places to work, he couldn't stand being young and beautiful.
He was originally with Tujalei's BJ hukou, and after three months, he broke up with him when he learned that he was a local who didn't even have a bathroom, and he didn't have a house at home.
The girl said very clearly, with the income of the two of them, they can't afford to live in their own house until they die, and they can't afford to live in their own house until they die, what should they do if they have children in the future.
"Grandpa Da Grandpa, someone in the city informed my mother that I would not necessarily go back to my hometown, and my father's ashes were arranged for a martyr's cemetery and would not return to my hometown. Jia Lei said.
At that time, he thought that this arrangement was quite good, after all, Jia Aiguo's hometown was too remote! There was only one road in the city leading to the outside world.
After discussing the matter, the third grandfather began to rummage things, he put the lighter used to light incense on the table into his pocket and began to fiddle with the SH brand radio on the table.
"Xiao Lei, you find a few of them two old clothes that your father doesn't want to change into. Grandma looked at the third grandfather who was rummaging through the wardrobe and spoke,
In fact, many people from his hometown wanted to come to SH for the legacy left by Jia Aiguo, Jia Lei saw that they were too dirty, and each of them found a new set of eight layers of clothes for him. My aunt, grandmother, mother and daughter got two sets of brand new work clothes, anyway, the work clothes are not male or female, and there is no waist, anyone can wear a little bigger, a little smaller, Sanni is embarrassed to ask for new clothes, Jia Lei had to tell her.
"You can't wear the clothes worn by a man in a girl's family, anyway, I'm too young to wear this clothes for ten or eight years, and I can't wear this clothes after ten years..."
Sanni took it over, and this was the first time she had worn new clothes. I used to pick up my mother's and sister's old clothes to wear in my hometown!
Anyway, Jia Aiguo's clothes, Jia Lei can't wear them, except for leaving two commemorative ones, they are divided among the old family, don't look at the old clothes, but they are all clothes without patches, in the remote countryside in the eighties, these clothes are also good things, so that the old family has a very good impression of Jia Lei.
