The Xie family used to be a big family and had their own special ancestral tombs, but they were destroyed when they broke the four olds, and they couldn't find the order of the old ancestors.

When digging the grave pit for Wanruo, the chief steward summed up with the villagers, and they found out the tomb of Haoran's father, according to the eastern green dragon, the western white tiger, the southern Vermilion Bird, and the northern Xuanwu, and then found out the approximate location of the first ancestor, two points and one line to determine Wanruo's grave.

With the four elephants, the gossip of dry, due, li, zhen, xun, kan, gen, and kun are also hastily determined, not to mention the depth of Wanruo's tomb, because Wanruo is the daughter-in-law of the family, which is very particular in the folk.

According to folk customs, the things of the underworld can be arranged well, and the things of the yang world can be smooth, even if the family is a little unsmooth during their lifetime, after the burial, everything can be smooth in the family.

The funeral procession walked mightily on the street, the dog was supported by the second stunned man and the hard stick, followed by the tractor dragging Wanruo's coffin, behind the bean sprouts were supported by Yao Jian and Qiao'er, she played the role of Wanruo's daughter, which she voluntarily, followed by Aunt Li supported by the fourth aunt and Heizi, and Lao Yao and Zhang Rongfeng followed.

Behind the immediate family are the people of the village, Xie Wanshan did a lot of good things for the people in the village during his lifetime, there are many people in the crowd who have received the favor of the Xie family, many of them have taken the initiative to wear black veils, and such an unfortunate thing happened at home, they feel sorry and sad for the Xie family.

The old secretary accompanied the governor and the mayor at the back of the long procession, and behind them were the leaders of the long villages. These people are in stark contrast to the team in front, all of them are neatly dressed, and they wear small white flowers on their chests, which is completely different from the unkempt and well-dressed people in front of them.

In front of the tractor is the team blowing suona, they are the leader, they are the foot of the formation, their speed directly affects the speed of the funeral. Among them was a leader, who not only commanded the speed of their march, but also the front team that fired the cannons.

This person pointed to the sky, and the person who played the suona stopped blowing the suona, and then he pointed to the team that fired the cannon, and those people began to put the two kicks on the ground and "dong-poof-" and put them non-stop, and this time was about five minutes. Sensing that the time was almost up, he pointed straight ahead again, and the cannon stopped, and the team began to move forward again.

This action is repeated several times during the march until it reaches the cemetery.

Haoran didn't come today, this is also a custom, husband and wife don't care who leaves, no one can be funeral, the chief steward has already arranged someone to accompany Haoran at home.

"Old secretary, can you ask why?" The mayor and the governor walked slowly behind the team, this question mark always lingered in the hearts of the two of them, tangled, and the mayor couldn't help but whisper a question while the cannon stopped.

The old secretary knew that they were asking Wanruo about the cause of death, he glanced at the mayor and the governor, and also lowered his voice and said: "This family is too good, and their ideas are inevitably beyond the world. In addition, it is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, and the important thing is to comfort the living people, channel their emotions, and let them give full play to their talents, which is what we need to do. ”

The two of them nodded and stopped asking.

The burial ceremony is also very cumbersome, on the filling of the soil is very particular, first relatives, then elders, and then the leader symbolic expression, and then the villagers complete the work in one go, and the last high grave is left in the empty wilderness, giving people endless reverie.

Wanruo's funeral was so eye-catching, from the governor to the mayor to the leaders of various villages all participated in the condolences, and all the villagers were waiting for the final speech of the big leader.

"Folks!" The governor made a short speech and said: "Wanruo is a legendary person, she has completed her legendary life and left us a legendary story. We can see what she left us by looking at the grieving people around her. She was a good woman, a good mother, and a person who deserved our respect. ”

"I don't represent anyone today, only in my own name, as a common people, to express my condolences to the deceased, I hope that the family will live a good life, and the villagers will live and work in peace and contentment, which is also the last wish left to us by the deceased. Finally, let us bow three times to express our sorrow for the deceased. ”

"Haoran, don't rush to work, settle down at home first, and rest at home for a few days before it's too late." After the burial, the old secretary led the governor and mayor to Haoran's house, and the governor said to Haoran.

"If Wanruo is in the ground, I can't get her life back even if I stay at home for a year, turn grief into strength, and devote myself to active work so that I can pull out of the pain! Governor, mayor, just let me go, so many people are waiting for me, so many jobs need me to complete! Haoran said without thinking.

After listening to Haoran's words, the governor said with great emotion: "Good comrade, what a good comrade!" You do this, you can arrange the affairs of the family yourself, and you can go when you are ready, but the premise is that you must take care of the affairs at home! The governor said.

Haoran looked at Aunt Li and Heizi and said, "Aunt Li, Uncle Heizi, do you have something to do?" ”

Aunt Li looked at the sunspot and said, "We're fine, we'll settle down at home, your business is important, you can go with confidence." ”

"yes, okay." Haoran looked at the bean sprouts and said: "Bean sprouts, the new plant has been built, the work is heavy, if you need me to do something, you can just speak, if you have something, go to the old secretary, he will call me." ”

"Knowing uncle, you can go with confidence, just remember to come back and see if it's okay." Bean sprouts said.

"Okay." Haoran looked at Lao Yao and Da Zhuang's father again and said to the fourth aunt: "Lao Yao, Dad, Fourth Aunt, you see that the children are all older, they all know how to work, and the industry is getting bigger and bigger. ”

"What are you talking about, where is the trouble for the family, who doesn't take a hand is called an outsider! Let's go, don't let down the leaders, no one at home will hold you back! Da Zhuang said.

"Okay, then I won't say thank you, it's all up to everyone." Haoran said and looked at the dog and said: "Left, the old secretary told me, saying that you are very enterprising, very spiritual, and have become a well-known boiler king, Lao Tzu makes boilers, and his son sells boilers, they are all outstanding people, and they have made great contributions to the village, and my father is also very happy!" ”

"Do a good job, Lao Tzu is a hero, you will definitely have a future! When you grow up, your father is not often at home, and you will have to discuss with these people in the family when you encounter something in the future, they will help you, if you need your father, you can call me at any time, if you miss your father, go to your father, and I will call a car to come back to pick you up. ”

Gou Yu looked at Haoran and didn't say a word, and he couldn't see any expression on Gou Yu's face, so he looked at Haoran quietly.

"Look at you kid, your dad talking to you!" The old secretary said to the dog.

The old secretary glanced at the old secretary and said, "What do you want me to say?" My mother is gone, do you know why my mother died? You can pretend to be confused one by one, but I can't, because that's my mother! ”

"You, you, you see how you kid is confused for a while, huh? The leaders are here, don't talk nonsense! The old secretary was choked by the incompatible words that came out of the dog's coldness and didn't know what to say for a while, in front of so many people, and they are all big leaders of some provinces and cities, isn't it obvious that he has nothing to do!

"Alright." Haoran knows what Gou Yu wants to say, it seems that Gou Yu still refuses to forgive himself, he can't say this in front of so many people, it will cost him his life to say it! It is not easy for Wanruo and Bean Sprouts to save their lives, Wanruo has just left, she doesn't want any more chaos at home!

"Okay, I'm leaving, let's all cherish it!" After speaking, Haoran stood up and said to the governor and mayor: "Governor, mayor, it is not easy for you to come here, you also care more about the development of our enterprise, before leaving, are we going to our boiler factory and cement factory to see?" ”

"Okay, okay, I mean that too. The old secretary promised me that the loan would be repaid within a year, and the development of the enterprise is your business, and it is also my business! It's all grasshoppers on a rope, one is prosperous and one is ruined, no one can get rid of it, this is also what I want to care about, go, take a look! The mayor said.

The old secretary led the way, everyone gathered around the governor and the mayor first came to the boiler factory, the mayor said: "I have long heard that Haoran built a set of boilers, but I don't have time to visit and study, today is just this opportunity, the field investigation is much more practical than talking on paper!" ”

"Well, I've also heard that Haoran's boiler innovation and transformation is a big initiative, but I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it, and I just opened my eyes when I saw the sky!" The governor also said.

"Governor, mayor, we have a lot of dealings with old-fashioned boilers, and the boiler designed by Haoran is like the difference between the 38 cadres and the bomber, there is no comparison!" The old secretary hurriedly said.

"Then why hasn't anyone admitted it yet? What's with? The governor asked.

"To put it bluntly, it's a matter of money! They all started from scratch, no one has a family background, and loans need to be reviewed layer by layer, how do you let these rural collective enterprises develop? That's a real big problem! ”

"More expensive than an old-fashioned boiler?"

"Well, expensive!"

"How much more expensive?"

"One thousand eight hundred!"

"Can't be less?"

"Governor." At this time, Haoran took over the conversation and said: "Governor, it's already very cheap, this is for this region, if other provinces come and add a little more, I won't do it!" ”

"Why?" The governor asked.
