Chapter 34: Funeral Arrangements (2)
Yan Yuxiang found Yan Yufu in the crowd, only to see him standing at the back of the crowd, as the eldest son in the family, he neither presided over the overall situation nor came to take care of his mother at this time. This made Yan Yuxiang very annoyed!
Yan Yuxiang said: "Brother, come here, I'll talk to you about something." ”
Yan Yufu heard Yuxiang call him, glanced at Yan Yuming who was standing in the courtyard, and said, "You say, there is something that can't be said here." ”
Yan Yuxiang said helplessly: "I asked the doctor, and said that it might be good to have some infusion in my mother's situation, or let's give some infusion, right? No matter how much the medical expenses cost, I will pay for it!" Yan Yuxiang was afraid that he would have concerns about money, so he said the money to death first. When the people around him heard Yan Yuxiang say this, they all gave him a thumbs up in their hearts, and felt that he was the real responsible person in the family!
Yan Yufu said: "I listen to you and Yuming about this matter, what result you discuss, let's do it." ”
Yan Yuxiang said anxiously: "Oh, are you the eldest brother or we are the eldest brother, at this time, you make up your mind, we listen to you." ”
Yan Yufu said awkwardly: "Although I am the eldest brother, when have you heard of me about the affairs of the family, and now you are in trouble before you remember that I am the eldest brother?"
After saying this, no matter what kind of eyes everyone looked at him, I saw him sitting in the corner of the bed, bowing his head and not talking anymore. He knew it was time for him to take sides!
Yan Yuxiang was helpless, so he had to say: "Then I'll talk to Yuming." With that, he stood up and walked into the courtyard, he hadn't spoken to Yan Yuming for a long time. It's still a little uncomfortable.
Yan Yuxiang shouted: "Yuming", only to see Yan Yuming turn his head, and he didn't call his brother, but said: "What's the matter?" There was a kind of high-spirited momentum in his tone.
Yan Yuxiang said: "I heard the doctor say that it may be okay for our mother to infuse some liquid in this situation, or let me infuse some liquid, and I will pay for the medical expenses." ”
Yan Yuming said: "I was just about to tell you about this matter, our sisters and brothers have discussed it, and we will definitely not let our mother suffer so much, so let his old man leave so peacefully." "There is no room for negotiation in the tone.
Yan Yuxiang said anxiously: "How many brothers and sisters are you, when did I agree?"
Seeing that Yan Yuming hadn't spoken yet, Dongzi's sister-in-law, who was standing on the side, said, "How many of our sisters and brothers, when will you be counted?" She didn't take Yan Yuxiang's feelings into account, but said it nakedly.
Yan Yuxiang scolded: "Don't think that you married a good husband, just pointing fingers here, I didn't see you come back when I encountered something, but now I came back to talk nonsense, don't get involved with your daughters in this kind of thing!"
Dongzi's sister-in-law married into a wealthy family in a neighboring village, and it is said that her husband was an official in the county's credit union, so she drove a car very early, but in this family, except for the youngest Yan Yuming, many people did not contact, and even the elders of the family did not pay attention to it.
Yan Yuming said to Yan Yuxiang: "Mom told me when she was sober, saying that she wanted him to go more smoothly, so you don't want to add to the blockage." ”
Yan Yuxiang said angrily: "I think you have something to do, I'm afraid that the old man will come back to life and demolish you!"
After hearing this, Yan Yuming shouted at Yan Yuxiang as if he had been told something in his heart: "What qualifications do you have to talk about me here!
The people in the house heard the two arguing in the courtyard, except for Yan Yufu, who was sitting motionless in the corner of the bed, they all came out to watch.
Yan Yuxiang scolded: "What the fuck are you, I shouldn't have saved you last time!"
Yan Yuming saw that there were more people in the courtyard, so he changed his expression, only to see him smile and say: "You save me? You can save yourself! You can also make up this kind of lie! No one will believe you if you say it!"
"You don't have humanity when you talk like this! Last time, I saw Uncle Yuxiang go to save you with my own eyes, and your memory was eaten by a dog!" his nephew Yan Bosheng couldn't stand it anymore, and scolded directly.
Yan Yuming straightened his waist and said: "Tiger, what are you, you dare to yell at me here, don't you say that this is my family's business, even if it is your family's business, can you scold your uncle?"
Yan Bosheng wanted to scold him again, but was stopped by his father. His father is also a capable person, but he has never been willing to take care of other people's affairs, this conniving attitude did not exchange for Yan Yuming's good impression of him, but in exchange for the cynicism of others when something happened in his family in the future.
Although Yan Yuxiang was angry, there was no way, although he was the richest family in this village, but I don't know why, the better his life, the fewer people in the village who were close to him.
Yan Yuxiang looked at the people around him, no one wanted to choose to stand on his side, Yan Yuxiang scolded: "Okay, good! You have a kind, I Yan Yuxiang remember them one by one!" After speaking, he went straight out and walked home, he didn't know what to do now, and wanted to go back and discuss it with his wife Yan Xiuping. He walked out of the door, only to hear what seemed to be a contemptuous laugh coming from the courtyard.
When Yan Yuxiang returned home, his wife saw that his face was not very good, and she knew that Grandma Dongzi was not light this time, but she didn't expect that things had come to this extent.
Yan Yuxiang drank a glass of water, and then told his wife the whole story of this matter, when Yan Xiuping knew that her man was guilty outside, this crime was not given by others, but Yan Yuming, who she had always hated, was very angry, and when she heard that Yan Cheng took a bag of things that fell out of Grandma Dongzi's pocket back to his house, he scolded: "Don't you see it yet! They want to take the money left by Grandma Dongzi to their own!"
Yan Yuxiang looked up at his wife, he never thought about money, but thought that this was his mother and wanted to save him. But the wife's starting point is obviously different.
Grandpa Dongzi is a blind man, and he has not cared about anything except eating and drinking in the past few years, if Grandma Dongzi is suddenly gone, then he doesn't know how much money the two of them will leave behind. So the two of them agreed on the same path: "You must give Grandma Fuyuko an infusion!" Of course, one is to save people, and the other is to save money! But his wife's words gave him a lot of ideas, and he decided to fight for it again.
Yan Yuxiang went again in the evening, he went to the doctor's house before going, and settled the medical expenses in the morning, and the doctor excused himself: "No hurry, no hurry." After a pause, he asked, "Yuming still doesn't agree?"
Yan Yuxiang nodded helplessly and said, "Alas...... I don't know what they think!
Although the doctor is not the same as Yan Yuxiang's family, but which of the people in this village is not related to each other, so he said: "Yuxiang, I know what you think, you are for your mother, but Yan Yuming is for your mother's money, this whole village can see that your mother is the most suitable for him to go like this, what if your mother wants to divide the family property equally if she is rescued?" The doctor said sharply.
Yan Yuming's impression among the villagers has not been very good, probably because of the heavy burden of his own family, which has been even worse in the past few years, and many things of stealing chickens and dogs, and abducting and abducting have all been pushed on his head. Therefore, when the people in the village mentioned him, they dared not speak out.
Yan Yuxiang said: "No matter what Yuming's reason is, I always have to be worthy of my conscience, so let's wait for my news, if I come to call you later, please go again." ”
The doctor sighed and said, "Okay, but your mother's situation really won't last long, if you decide, you should be faster." ”
Yan Yuxiang agreed, and walked to Grandma Dongzi's house.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw that most of the people in the family had dispersed, and only the family members remained in the house at this time: their old father, who was blind and deaf recently, lay in the corner of the bed, and sat Yan Yufu, Yan Yuming and Dongzi's two aunts sitting underground. Yan Cheng, who has always been a father and son soldier, doesn't know where he went.
Yan Yuxiang has lived in this house for more than ten years, he is too familiar with this house, I saw him push the door in, glanced at his mother lying on the bed, and saw that she was still like that, he did not waste time, but sat at the head of the bed and said: "You are all here, just right, I will discuss something with you." ”
When Yan Yuxiang entered the room, Yan Yuming and the others all raised their heads to take a look, they didn't expect it to be him, and when they heard Yan Yuxiang say this, the sister-in-law Dongzi, who has always been strong, said: "It just so happens that you are down, and we also have something to tell you." ”
He really couldn't accept his sister talking to him like this, but for the sake of his mother, Yan Yuxiang held back his anger and said, "I'll say my suggestion first," after saying this, he didn't pause, and then said: "I went to the doctor's house just now, and I have already settled my mother's medical expenses in the morning, I discussed it with the doctor, and I think that my mother can still be infused for a few more days.
After Yan Yuxiang said this, when he saw Yan Yuming raise his hand and wanted to speak, he directly interrupted him and said: "I haven't finished my words yet, I have another suggestion, I don't know how much money Grandma Dongzi left, but among us, only the eldest brother and Yuming's family is a little worse, so I don't want any of this money, just give it to the two of them! I just hope that you can agree to fight for the hope of your mother's life." ”
He didn't ask his wife for advice on the idea, he knew that even if he did, his wife wouldn't agree to it, but now he had to do it for the sake of his mother.
After saying this, he first asked Yan Yufu, "Big brother, what do you think of my idea?"
Yan Yufu was obviously tempted when he heard that there was money, to be honest, the reason why he stood on Yan Yuming's side was only because he was "overwhelmed", and Yan Yufu also knew that in the end he still couldn't get a penny.
But he didn't dare to speak first, looked at Yan Yuming, and said, "You can discuss, what you discuss!" threw out his almighty golden sentence again.
Yan Yuxiang said: "Yuming, what do you think?"
Yan Yuming raised his head and asked with a slanted face, "This is your suggestion?"
Yan Yuxiang said "um".
I saw Yan Yuming stand up and say, "Okay, then I'll talk about it." Do you think my mother has spent all the money for me in the past few years, and I asked my mother two days ago that he was going to school, and my mother said that he spent the most money on Dongzi's school! I didn't take a penny! What do you say?"
After hearing this, Yan Yuxiang also stood up and said, "Do you think someone believes me in saying this? What has been my situation in the past few years, what is your situation, you are blind when you treat others!" He calmed down for a while, and said: "But if you call me a brother, can I make your life like that bear?" This is Yan Yuxiang's true words, what he is most worried about in addition to his own family is this younger brother!
Yan Yuming replied: "I'll tell you today, Mom doesn't have much money, I have to tell you about our decision, when Mom is away, the four of us brothers and sisters can handle Mom's funeral, you don't have to worry about it!"
After hearing this, Yan Yuxiang's stomach was angry, only to see him cover his stomach, slowly sit on the bed, and said: "Yuming, I have made it clear to you, how much money is in my mother's money, it is all counted by the government, you don't treat others as three-year-old children, if you do what I say, not only will your mother's money be yours, but I will try my best to help you if you have any difficulties at home in the future, but you still have to insist on going your own way, let's see you in the lawsuit, I will have to worry about you if you occupy my family!"
Yan Yuming was so determined that he wanted to refuse, but at this time, he saw Yan Yufu stand up and said, "We are all brothers who crawled out of our stomachs, do we have to be so hateful?"
Yan Yuming pointed at him and scolded: "What did I say to you! You just have to sit down and listen!"
Yan Yufu was scolded by his younger brother this time, and did not speak again, but did not sit down, but "sighed" and turned to go out.
I only heard Yan Yuxiang ask for the last time: "Yuming, are you sure you want to do this in this matter?"
Yan Yuming said: "It's reasonable for me to do this, why don't I do something that makes sense! If you come to send your mother, I don't mind, but don't hinder me from sending my mother!" Yan Yuxiang had already separated Grandma Dongzi in his words.
Yan Yuxiang calmed down, felt a little better in his stomach, and said, "Okay, good, you have a kind! Let's see!" After saying this, he turned his head and went out!
