Chapter 106: Wonderful
Watching a wooden coffin slowly being put into the soil, Yang Rui just watched quietly, without the slightest idea in his heart, maybe many people standing there are now a kind of mentality to watch the excitement.
This is the third day that Yang Rui and Liu Juan came, today is the day of Liu Xinmin's burial, and the people got up early in the morning to prepare, all of them are villagers, and they are related to their families. But Yang Rui knows very well that this situation will not last long, and even after twenty or thirty years, such customs and habits will begin to disappear.
Looking at the people standing everywhere, all of them are people in their forties and fifties, and occasionally some young men, Yang Rui knows that they will not stay in the countryside either, because life in the city is better than in the countryside, although they will be very tired every day, but they still can't stop people's yearning for a better life.
Perhaps, China's countryside will disappear! And with the disappearance, there are many unique customs in the countryside; Not to mention the good and bad of some rural customs, compared with the indifference of interpersonal communication in the city, Yang Rui still likes to live in the countryside more. It's just that the countryside he likes is not here, but in his memory, because he will never be able to go back now.
Putting aside useless thoughts, Yang Rui followed behind Liu Juan, grabbed a handful of fine soil from an enamel basin, and sprinkled it around the coffin, Yang Rui didn't know what kind of custom this was, and he didn't know what the meaning of doing it was, he was not the kind of person who got to the bottom of it, since everyone did it, he would just follow suit.
The people who can do this are all immediate relatives of the Liu family, and this blood relationship is very close.
There were no bodies left in the coffin, only ashes remained.
"Mom, let's go!"
Yang Rui lightly called Liu Juan, who was in a daze, this is a mass grave, and he can't say that, it should be said that this is a cemetery in the village; In rural areas, cemeteries are rarely built into cultivated land, and most of the cemeteries are built in mountainous areas, or in places that are not suitable for arable land.
I don't know how many people are buried here, and the dense graves are lined up here. Anyway, it feels eerie to stand here, to be honest, if it's summer, it's good to come here to enjoy the coolness, because of the trees, it's a very shady place anyway.
"Yes." Liu Juan nodded, it's useless to stand here now, after sprinkling the soil, and then Mr. Taoist priest will come here to recite the scriptures and the like, it should be a sealed tomb. There will be a new mound of dirt here. In the future, someone may remember who is buried under this mound, or no one will know.
At noon, the whole village sits down and eats together, which is a custom; When you get married, you invite guests to eat together, and when you are dead, you also invite people to eat, which is also said, that is, it means that there is one more person and one less person to eat.
"Yang Rui, this is your cousin."
Looking at the person in front of him and listening to Liu Juan's introduction, Yang Rui instantly knew who it was; Liu Xinmin's daughter seems to be studying in a foreign country now, but as for the specific foreign country, Yang Rui doesn't know.
"Jingjing has grown so big, she can't recognize it." Yang Rui sighed a little, in his memory, Liu Jingjing was just a little girl, although she was not the kind of person with snot on her nose, but she was only eleven or twelve years old.
"Auntie is here too."
After greeting Liu Jingjing, Yang Rui looked at Jiang Xiuping who was standing next to him, compared to his memory, he looked much older now, and the black hair in his memory had already begun to have a few strands of white hair.
For Liu Jingjing and Jiang Xiuping, Yang Rui still has a very good impression of the two because of the influence of memory, I remember that when I was young, this aunt took good care of Yang Rui, and every time we met, she would distribute some candy and other things.
"I don't know why she's here!" Yang Rui silently thought in his heart that after divorcing Liu Xinmin, Jiang Xiuping's life seemed to be very good. Compared with the rural women who carry the sun on their backs every day, Jiang Xiuping looks good and has a much fairer skin.
As for Liu Xinmin will divorce her, Yang Rui can also guess that this bad wife will not go to court, saying that she can say it, but there are a few who can do it, especially when the wife is not beautiful enough. In Yang Rui's opinion, Jiang Xiuping is actually not beautiful, she can only be called ordinary, this person is old, and it is normal to find it again.
"Come and see him off for the last time." Jiang Xiuping was a little sad, this husband and wife have been getting along day and night for more than ten years, this has no feelings, it can't be a thing at all. Even if you are divorced, this is not something that can be broken immediately. What's more, there is Liu Jingjing between the two.
Yang Rui didn't know what to say, he really didn't know how to comfort the current situation; Liu Xinmin is also quite a wretched death, why do you say that?
Liu Xinmin's death can definitely be written as a novel; Now let's talk about what is going on, first of all, Liu Xinmin had an improper relationship with a woman, and this woman had an improper relationship with another man. Anyway, the relationship between men and women is quite chaotic, because of Liu Xinmin's death, this is the tip of the iceberg.
At that time, when Yang Rui heard about this woman's chaotic relationship between men and women, he was also a little messy.
To get back to the point, let's say that Liu Xinmin died well.
More than ten days ago, Liu Xinmin and a woman, and considering the woman's *, he changed his name to Xiaomin; When Liu Xinmin and Xiao Min were having a relationship at Xiao Min's house, they were seen by Xiao Min's husband who came back, and then they were arrested and beaten on the spot. Later, because the neighbors found out, they finally called the police, and then Liu Xinmin and Xiaomin's husbands were administratively detained.
And this matter was known by another man, whose name was Guan Tieda; And this Guan Tieda has also maintained an improper relationship with Xiao Min for a long time, after hearing about this, he felt a little angry, anyway, after Liu Xinmin came out of administrative detention, he ran to Liu Xinmin's house and killed him.
And this Guan Tieda was also caught by the police very quickly, from the discovery of Liu Xinmin's body to his arrest, hehe, that is, more than an hour. I have to say that this kind of person who is a bit of a second person in Guan Tieda, after killing someone, actually went home to sleep directly.
After the police called up the surveillance of the community, they directly locked up Guan Tieda and arrested him at his home.
Anyway, Yang Rui heard that the case was like this at the time, and he was a little stupid on the spot; What a strange person it must have been to do such a thing.
To say that he is because of love is pure nonsense, anyway, Yang Rui thinks that Guan Tieda is a dumbfounder.
Then, the matter should be over here, the kind where everyone is happy; It's just that when Guan Tieda was being tried, a thing was dug out of his mouth.
That is, when Xiao Min and her husband were detained, she had a relationship with Guan Tieda again, and it was very frequent. Guan Tieda's return to kill Liu Xinmin also had a lot to do with Xiaomin's provocation.
Guan Tieda originally wanted to kill Liu Xinmin and Xiaomin's husband, but he just killed Liu Xinmin, and he was arrested before he could kill Xiaomin's husband in a hurry.
Xiaomin will instigate Guan Tieda to do this, according to her confession, she learned it from TV; Well, after Yang Rui knew it at the time, he was instantly messy again. There is this plot on that TV series, is it an assassination by a wealthy family?
Anyway, it's such a strange thing.
"Let's mourn and change."
Yang Rui really didn't know how to say it, and there was nothing to say about this matter; Liu Xinmin's death is really a bit unjust. Until now, he still hasn't figured out why that woman has such thoughts, killing Liu Xinmin is useless at all!
Maybe Liu Xinmin didn't perform well in bed?
Thinking of this, Yang Rui also smiled in his heart, obviously it was definitely not for this reason. It's just that he has no interest in asking what the reason is, and the police are not interested in knowing, because the impact of this matter in Leyang is still quite bad, and you can know it by looking at the cause of this matter, so everyone tacitly began to suppress it
