Several brothers followed Wu Xiaoliang's call and ran forward with all their hearts and ears. The iron gunner, who played the suona, also panicked.
In an instant, a large group of people moved quickly to the front like soldiers who had lost their armor and defeated them.
This toss, the others are better, but Wu Xiaosen is tired, how can he stand this! When he got to the front, his whole body was soaked, his face was pale, he was panting heavily, his feet were unstable and he fell to the ground with a "plop", and was immediately helped up by several people beside him.
Dongzhuang and the people outside the village looked at Brother Xiaofu and the wolves, secretly laughed, and whispered.
Xia Yu, Qiu Feng and the others saw that Xiaofu and the others had caught up, and the mighty team immediately slowed down and almost stopped.
They didn't walk, and the suona hand leading the way in front couldn't go fast, almost pressing the steps, and it took nearly twenty minutes to walk less than 100 meters.
Dongzhuang and others entered the house, hundreds of filial sons and grandsons were tossed and depressed, out of breath, and some people quietly complained, saying that Dongzhuang was deliberately tossing people.
Wu Yongxiang and the fat boy called Xia Yu and Qiu Feng aside, discussed and said, "Two, it's twelve o'clock in less than half an hour, and you know the rules here." Xiaofu's family is to send Xinqi to the cemetery at twelve o'clock, it's too late, at least you have to leave the house before twelve o'clock! You see, are you going to cover the coffin and go out of the funeral now? ”
Qiufeng knew the rules here, and understood that Wu Yongxiang was asking if he could go to the funeral first and then eat, so he said without hesitation, "It doesn't matter if you eat first and then eat, let's prepare for the funeral!" ”
With the approval of the people of Dongzhuang, Wu Yongxiang and the fat boy called over a few strong laborers, entered the hall, lifted the lid of the coffin, and let the relatives and the old man say their final goodbyes. According to the more formal term, it is called farewell to the body.
Under the witness of the three Qiufeng brothers and their closest relatives, the Wu Xiaofu brothers and sisters washed their mother's face, cleaned their faces, carefully sorted out the coffin, and withdrew all of them to the courtyard, and sealed the coffin.
The solid wood coffin weighing more than 2,000 pounds, the door is relatively narrow, and there can only be five people who can use the strength before and after going out, especially the heaviest front, who will carry this front, which really makes it difficult for Wu Yongxiang and the fat boy and others.
There was no way, in the end, Wu Xiaoliang, who was relatively low in height, strong in body, and had experience in carrying the coffin, was pulled from the filial piety team, and let Si Lingzi and Wu Xiaoliang be assistants, and the two of them lifted the bottom of the spirit side by side.
Although Si Lingzi has great strength, he put the coffin in front of him for the first time, and he did not know the essentials, and he did not cooperate with Wu Xiaoliang.
At the moment when the coffin was carried out by the people behind, the heel was hit hard by the bottom edge of the coffin, and it suddenly hurt, grinned, and the hands that were clenching the bottom of the coffin were soft, and they immediately let go, and "rubbed" to the hospital, looked down to see the blood flowing, and was helped by the daughter-in-law who was watching the hot and noisy on the side to the village clinic to deal with it.
Wu Xiaoliang was already overwhelmed, and as soon as Si Lingzi let go, he suddenly felt that the burden of a thousand catties was on his shoulders, but he was frightened! What I was most worried about was that when I relaxed a little and stood unsteadily, the coffin stuck in the middle of the door and landed, and I had to be smashed underneath, so I had to grit my teeth and hold on.
Wu Yongxiang, the fat boy and others saw that the shape was not good, pinched a handful of sweat, their hearts rose to their throats, and shouted at the people around them, "Don't move the people in the house, the people at the door come up quickly, catch Xiaoliang!" ”
Several young and strong young men pounced on the high bar with their hands, Wu Xiaoliang took advantage of the situation to get out, and after a short pause, the coffin was able to be lifted out of the house.
Wu Yongxiang saw that the coffin was too heavy, and the aisle was also relatively narrow, so if it went on like this, if he couldn't lift it out of the yard, he would have to get tired and lie down, and he would never go out of the aisle.
With the inspiration, he didn't care about discussing with others, and shouted, "Don't move, put up the top bar, and the others quickly move the pots and pans aside, and tear off all the courtyard walls on the west side." ”
As soon as the words fell, one or twenty people immediately took action, grabbed the east and west, pushed the wall and threw bricks, and were busy, and in less than ten minutes, a wide passage outward took shape.
The place is wide enough to have more people, and under the fat boy shouting the password, the coffin was slowly lifted, which means that Xiao Junniang officially set off, leaving the home where she has lived for decades, and completing the last journey of her life.
Wu Xiaoyun and Wu Xiaomei sisters cried to death at the moment when the coffin was lifted, miserable, tragic, and heartbreaking.
Wu Pingshun's thin body stood by the windowsill, his expression was sluggish, his face was washed with tears, and he was extremely sad to see his wife, who had gone through hardships to raise children and respect his mother, take care of his neighbors, and bump and bump for decades, towards the point of no return.
"What a kind wife, it's a pity to say that it's gone. When she was alive, she suffered a lot of hardships and sins, I hope she will go all the way and enjoy happiness in that world! Neighbor Qiao Erniang sobbed and said.
"Don't look at the old couple who usually quarrel a lot, Pingshun is usually so stubborn, as soon as Xiaofu Niang left, his hard-hearted heart softened, seeing how sad he cried, how painful, I felt very uncomfortable in my heart!" The sixth daughter-in-law of Ma from the neighboring village said with emotion.
"Yes! Usually there is a wife who is not visible, and the departure of Xiao Junniang can be said to have collapsed half of the sky, and how can he live this day after he is left alone! An old man is pitiful! Qiao Erniang said sympathetically.
Liu Dazui, the daughter-in-law of Zhang Yaowu in the neighboring village of Zhangzhuang, said angrily, "Hmph, Pingshun, an old thing with no conscience, now knows that he is crying, when he beats Fu Niang, do you think that she will have today, think of his wife, is it good to think of his wife, the cat is crying and the mouse is fake!" ”
"Hey, are you a little sympathetic? Children cry that they have to do this, they are all for others to see, and crying smoothly is sincere and sincere, without any adulteration, how can it be said that he is a cat crying mouse fake! Ma's sixth daughter-in-law argued.
Liu Dazui pursed his mouth and said matter-of-factly, "Now everyone knows that Xiaofu Niang was beaten to death by him, wolf-hearted dog-lunged, and he actually hit a wife so hard, it's too late to regret it!" ”
Qiao Erniang roared angrily, "Liu Dazui, I am a neighbor of Pingshun's family, because of the world's marriage to a daughter-in-law, the old couple is not fake, Pingshun is knocked on Xiaojunniang's straw stick, this has been more than a month, Xiaojunniang should work in the field, every day from the field to feed the livestock to feed the livestock, what does it have to do with being beaten or not, no one knows his sudden illness!" Let's talk about our conscience, and don't put a hat on Pingshun's head with a clear conscience. ”
Liu Dazui said impatiently, "Okay! Everyone says so, anyway, there is no wind and no waves, believe it or not, I don't argue with you about this! ”
The speaker has no intention and the listener has the intention.
These words were heard by the daughter-in-law of Dongzhuang's uncle's family Chunlei and a few little ladies on the side, and they whispered, "At first, I told my mother how his father beat his mother, how hard the beating was, my mother and I were still a little suspicious, it seems that my sister-in-law was beaten by my uncle. ”
"Sister-in-law, we have to talk to my eldest brother and Qiufeng about this, if this is the case, we can't just forget it, don't even say a word, others will say that we are too weak and incompetent, and we won't be able to save face when the time comes."
"Well, I'll tell you Brother Chunlei to go, and discuss what to do with their brothers!"
——
The coffin had just been lifted by eight strong laborers, and they wanted to go out of the newly opened passage, when Chun Lei, Xia Yu and Qiu Feng suddenly stood in front of them and shouted, "Stop, stop, stop!" ”
Wu Yongxiang and the fat boy saw Xiaofu's three cousins blocking the way, they couldn't help but be stunned, they didn't know what the three of them were doing, they hurriedly waved their hands at the person carrying the coffin to stop, and then stepped forward and asked, "Xiaofu three cousins, what do you mean, why do you want to stop?" ”
Chunlei said with a gloomy face, "My sister-in-law has walked out of the aisle for decades, and this is the last time she will go out of this courtyard, how can you let her go out of the wrong way?" ”
The fat boy laughed and said, "His eldest brother, you also saw it when he came out of the house just now, the coffin was too heavy, and it took so much effort to carry it out of the house, and it also injured a person, I don't know what the situation is." The aisle door is as wide as the hall door, so it's really hard to get out! Otherwise, I won't open the door now, this is a last resort! ”
Wu Yongxiang followed and said, "Yes! Oh, yes! Isn't it all for the sake of hurry, for convenience, and to send Xiaofu Niang to the next world! ”
Qiu Feng said angrily, "My sister-in-law has been on the right path all her life, how can you let her go astray just for convenience, this is insulting her reputation." Besides, isn't there anyone in your martial arts village, can't you even carry a coffin out? ”
The fat boy's face turned blue, and his expression was extremely unnatural, "A few cousins of the Xiaofu family!" How can you say that! ”
Xia Yu said unceremoniously, "As for when it is not time, it is the business of the main family, and it has nothing to do with us, as for how to get out of the aisle, even if you lift the top of the aisle, we don't care, anyway, my sister-in-law can't go out from here." ”
Wu Yongxiang saw that the three brothers Chunlei had a tough attitude, and there seemed to be no room for maneuver, and said secretly, they were all here when they were digging the wall just now, and no one said anything, how did it change in a blink of an eye, it was a little strange, and he couldn't figure out where the ship bent was for a while, and he was very embarrassed and said, "Everything is auspicious, and I'm afraid it's not good for anyone to miss the hour!" We are the ones who are in charge of other people's affairs, and we have to get things done, don't you want to embarrass us? ”
Qiu Feng was extremely unhappy when he heard this, and said angrily, "Why do you say that we are embarrassing you, we are speaking in every word, if this is the case, you can do whatever you want, and let us do it." Big brother, second brother, since we can't talk about it, let's not delay people's errands, and call our people to go! ”
Wu Xiaoliang and a large group of filial sons knelt and cried outside the courtyard gate, and they didn't see the coffin come out of the courtyard for a long time, and they felt uneasy.
Listening attentively to the conversation between Wu Yongxiang and Chunlei and others, it turned out that Chunlei and others prevented the coffin from being discharged from the hospital through the door, and immediately frowned.
It seems that what Xiao Yu said has come true, and the people of Dongzhuang have been prepared from the beginning.
First of all, he said that the person who reported the funeral was wrong, and let Xiaofu go to the funeral before agreeing to come to the funeral.
It's far from the village, and I stopped and waited for someone to pick me up.
When the people approached, their brigade dispersed quickly, and hundreds of people in the filial piety courtyard had to brave the scorching heat to run to the front of their team to lead the way.
I didn't say a word when I was digging the wall, and when I was done, I was not allowed to get out of the coffin from there.
This qiē seems to be accidental, but it is interlocking, and it seems that there is a plan before coming.
When he reminded himself, he didn't think so, and he didn't take it to heart, and now it seems that he is indeed careless.
It's not a matter for a few of them to be in a stalemate there, and it is imperative to carry the coffin out as soon as possible, how can we break the situation in front of them?
