readx; An hour to go to the temple in my village to give my father a requiem, eight times a day, more than three o'clock in the afternoon, Xia Jing also rushed over from school, but encountered a problem, my brother Sledgehammer and I were not married, Sledgehammer did not have a girlfriend at that time, and Xia Jing was only my girlfriend. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Sledgehammer is the eldest son, and I am the second. The old men who asked about the matter were worried about Xia Jing's filial piety clothes, how to arrange it! After all, I have never encountered this situation in the history of my village, and later my grandfather said that we will go according to the child daughter-in-law, which is six inches shorter than Xiaohua. Xiaohua is my sister, according to the rules of my hometown, my sister is a married daughter who has to be wrapped in filial piety! And Xia Jing is almost wrapped up in six inches shorter! Every time I go to the temple to requiem my father, Xia Jing walks behind my sister, and she cries heartbreakingly......
None of us would have thought that this would be such an occasion! When I was resting, she ran up to me, grabbed my hand tightly, and hugged me in her arms. We didn't say anything, just hugged tightly, quietly! My mother came over and asked Xia Jing if she had eaten? Xia Jing shook her head, my mother asked my sister to go to the kitchen to give Xia Jing some food, and Xia Jing didn't eat a bite when she brought it over!
On the first night of the funeral, to summon my father's soul, the village goddess prepared a basin of sand, touched it evenly, and then covered it with tiles, and put on it the clothes that my father wore before his death, his favorite clothes!

Then I burned my father's clothes and a special ingot, and when the ashes were completely extinguished, let the sledgehammer and I lift the tiles, and a fingerprint appeared on the originally plain sand, and the goddess also said: Your father can't write, so he pressed the handprint, and it was a thumbs! All these supernatural phenomena came alive in front of me. And the tiles were carefully covered by me and the sledgehammer. I remember when I was a kid my grandmother's hairpin print......
When the funeral is about to be performed, the coffin lid is covered and then the coffin is sealed with eight wooden deeds, and the wooden deeds are painted black again. I can't see it, the coffin seems to be a whole. The last funeral ceremony was to throw a clay pot in front of the coffin in front of the house, which had been used in front of my father's statue for three days, and the incense was sufficient. This thing was done by the eldest son, the sledgehammer, and I dropped a small black magnetic bowl, and a string of charms, crackling, and the road was full of tiles and porcelain...... Eight young and strong men carried my father's coffin, and all the relatives of my family walked towards the family cemetery step by step with the terrible sound of suona...... When the auspicious time came, the coffin was finally put into the ground, all the wreaths, and the flower building were lit with the sound of the cannons. ……
What should have come has come, and what should not have gone has gone, my father...... Such an honest and diligent person left this ruthless world because of myocardial infarction, may you no longer be so tired in heaven, and may you be happy and healthy forever in heaven......
After the coffin was put into the ground, the family members and friends went home to eat the flowing water mat, I haven't eaten anything for two days, and so has Xia Jing! For the first time in my life, I hated to eat running water mats, and eating other people's flowing water mats used to mean that I could eat meat and improve my food, but the flowing water mat that day was so annoying, I felt that those people were noisy and noisy without a little sad feeling, they came for this meal, I didn't have a little appetite, Xia Jing stood next to me and accompanied me, looked at my mother for a while, and finally pulled me to my mother and suddenly knelt down, saying: Mom, dad is not here, don't be sad! I'm right when I look at this situation! My father is gone, and I have no power to recover, so I will do everything I can to take care of my mother, and I believe that my father will understand me if he knows it......
