Dongzhuang people did have plans and arrangements in advance, but Chunlei and the others were not allowed to come out of the coffin through the door, but they were influenced by Chunlei's daughter-in-law and a few little daughters-in-law, they told the special part they heard and the three brothers Chunlei, Xia Lei was particularly annoyed, and the three brothers made a temporary decision in total, and it took less than five minutes before and after.

Wu Xiaoliang saw that a few people had been arguing, Wu Yongxiang and the fat boy were very anxious, sweating on their faces, some people outside the hospital who were watching the excitement returned to the courtyard one after another, and whispered to Wu Xiaocong on the side, "Dongzhuang people are deliberately making things difficult, whoever comes forward in our filial piety courtyard is suitable, you call a few older, sober-minded old people to go over, it is best to get out of the coffin from the door, if it doesn't work, do what they say, don't let them waste time." ”

Wu Xiaocong and the old branch secretary, who was nearly eighty years old, briefly explained, and the old branch secretary led five or six old people to the three of Brother Chunlei, and said with a hum, "His cousin, don't get excited, don't get excited, dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger, talk about it, talk about it!" ”

Xia Yu recognized the old branch secretary and said in a muffled voice, "Old branch secretary, you are old and senior, you give a review, my sister-in-law has been kind and upright all her life, and she has never taken crooked ways, and she has walked from this aisle for decades, and finally let her leave home from the left side door, isn't it an insult to her personality and life, are there any faults in our propose." As our own nephew, is it too much for us to make this little request for my sister-in-law? ”

The old branch secretary said tremblingly, "Brother Xiaofu, you have all seen the situation of coming out of the coffin from the house just now, this is a last resort, you can understand it!" ”

Xia Yu said angrily, "We understand you, do any of you understand my sister-in-law!" Big brother, third brother, since this is the case, we have nothing to say more, let's be out of sight and out of mind, let's go, let the people in Wujia Village watch and do it themselves! ”

The old branch secretary and the others didn't listen to Brother Chunlei in black and white, and said decisively, "Yongxiang, fat boy! Don't waste time, all the people in our Wujia Village are tough guys, and they can carry Xiaofu Niang's coffin out of the house. ”

Several old people said so, Wu Yongxiang and the fat boy had to comply, immediately beckoned someone, took off the aisle door, demolished the door frame, and then took a lot of effort to carry the coffin outside the courtyard and park it on the spirit frame that had already been placed.

When the others put the coffin cover prepared in advance, all the sixteen people who carried the spirit were in place.

The fat boy shouted a command, "Rise up—on the road—"

"Good!"

Sixteen people responded in unison, and the coffin was raised.

"Bump"

"Bump"

"Bumper"

"Bumper Bumper"

There are more than 20 people in front of them holding wreaths, paper offerings, carrying black gauze curtains, and Xiaoliang, Xiaofu brothers and junior men follow the suona hand closely, and the mighty funeral procession moves forward slowly.

The fat boy walked in front of the coffin, reminding the bearer from time to time, "The road ahead is slippery, be careful with your step!" ”

"Good!"

"The road is uneven, slow down!"

"Good!"

——

The team had moved forward for about fifty meters, and a few younger lads couldn't stand it, they were sweating profusely, their faces were red and their necks were thick, and the fat boy prompted them to stop and change, and then continued to move slowly.

Next, forty meters, thirty meters to change people.

The people who carried the spirit twice before were really afraid, and they had never felt so heavy when they carried so many coffins, thinking that they would continue to lift their legs and weaken, and their hearts were worried, and they retreated one by one.

When the fourth substitution came, the fat boy and Wu Yongxiang shouted seven or eight times in a row, but no one approached, the fat boy was anxious, and jumped on the low wall next to him with a "rubbing", and scolded loudly, "Are all the men in Wujia Village a bad breed?" Have they all become shrunken turtles? Are they all dead? Now I strongly request that the treat be put on the shelves! Then he jumped off.

This trick was still very effective, before the words fell, the seven or eight people who had been replaced just now returned to their original positions, and a few people ignored him at all, pretending not to hear anything, and still wandering around the periphery as if nothing had happened, just unwilling to move forward.

Several guests who came to mourn were really embarrassed to see the people in the village carrying their spirits, so they had to take the initiative to replace them.

In this way, the funeral procession stopped and stopped, and changed the person carrying the coffin more than a dozen times before sending the coffin to the cemetery.

After burning paper and offering incense in order, the ceremony ended, all the paper sacrifices were burned, the coffin was filled with soil, and the military mother was completely buried in the ground.

Everyone dispersed from the cemetery, and when they returned home, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Except for the Dongzhuang people and the busy workers in the village who have not yet eaten, most of the other guests have begun to leave one after another.

His mother was buried, and there was no coffin to guard, Wu Xiaojun felt empty in his heart for a while, and came to his father listlessly like a deflated ball. Then Wu Xiaosen, Wu Xiaoyun and Wu Xiaomei also came over.

Several people sat in the room, all with gloomy faces, without saying a word, still immersed in great loss and grief, and even a needle could be heard falling to the ground.

I don't know how long it took, Qiu Feng walked in, looked at Wu Pingshun who was lying on the bed and said coldly, "Little uncle, we're leaving!" What about baskets? ”

Wu Pingshun bowed slightly, looked at Qiu Feng and said, "Feng! Let's go, let's talk for a while! ”

Qiufeng said with a gloomy face, "Don't say it! ”

Wu Xiaoyun got up and looked at the paper sticks on several bamboo baskets on the ground, and handed one to Qiu Feng, who walked out of the door with the basket.

Wu Pingshun saw that Qiu Feng's expression and movements were very wrong, and said to Wu Xiaosen, "Xiaosen, Qiu Feng's face is ugly, as if he has something in his heart, it is not normal to be in such a hurry." According to common sense, the three of them can't leave now, and they have to discuss with a few of you about releasing filial piety, and there is no reason to leave without saying anything! ”

Wu Xiaoyun said in surprise, "That's right! Several of his brothers are people who pay attention to the rules, and it stands to reason that they will not ignore this rule, and they ignore our father today, as if they have something to say, but they don't want to say it here, so they can't let them go like this! ”

At this time, Wu Xiaoliang and Wu Yongxiang walked in with uneasy faces, "Uncle, Chunlei and Qiufeng are angry outside, if they are in a hurry to leave, we can't stop them, they don't say anything when they ask anything, they have to let Brother Xiaofu go out, what do you think should be done?" ”

Wu Ping said quietly, "Since they said so, there must be something, let Xiaofu and Xiaosen go out to meet them!" ”

Wu Xiaofu, Wu Xiaoqi and Wu Xiaosen knew that it would be no good to go out, and some things could not be avoided, so they had to act according to the wishes of a few cousins, and followed Wu Xiaoliang with anxiety and anxiety, and Wu Yongxiang came to the alley outside the courtyard.

I saw that there were hundreds of people watching the excitement inside and outside the village, the three brothers Chunlei and several other cousins and cousins stood in a row, and there were several cousins and close relatives standing behind, not to mention more than 30 people, all with gloomy faces, staring at Wu Xiaofu and the three of them.

The three brothers Wu Xiaofu saw that their uncle's family was not good, so they approached and knelt on their knees without saying anything, posing as if they were waiting to make amends.

Chunlei watched the three of them stomp a few times, pointed at Wu Xiaofu's nose and scolded, "Xiaofu, you dog thing who eats people's food and doesn't pull human, look at what you are doing, your mother is so confused, and she left in vain, don't you feel ashamed, do you feel at ease!" ”

Qiu Feng didn't say a word, he raised a foot and kicked Wu Xiaofu to the ground, Xia Yu followed up a few more kicks, and scolded viciously, "Pigs and dogs are not as good as things, how can my sister-in-law raise you bastards with no conscience!" ”

Wu Xiaofu timidly got up from the ground, knelt down on the ground again, his face was blue and purple, his eyes were in a daze, his head drooped, his thin body was arched, he didn't know what his uncle would do next, he was so frightened that he didn't even dare to get out of the air, he was sweating profusely and fluttering down his cheeks, and he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it, and the wolf bèi was extreme.

Although Wu Xiaoqi and Wu Xiaosen were not kicked by several cousins, they always knelt on the ground, kneeling in the middle of the crowd, staring at the ground and not daring to raise their heads.

The people watching the excitement on the sidelines whispered, "You look at the three brothers, they are like a prisoner waiting to be tried and criticized. It's a shame now! ”

"Let Xiaofu be unlucky, and he deserves to be ashamed, thinking that he and Jona treated Pingshun and his sister the same way before, and let him kneel under the sun for three days and three nights without losing him. It's a pity that Xiaosen suffered, a scholar who had no power to restrain the chicken, accompanied the two brothers to suffer, it was really difficult for him! ”

"What's so embarrassing about this, he doesn't kneel for others, it's for his mother. His mother walked very cleanly, didn't pester any of them, didn't make trouble for anyone, and was cheap enough for their brothers and sisters. If it's really like Pingming, then it's called torture! ”

"Alright! This is someone's own business, let's not talk nonsense, wait and see the excitement! ”

Qiufeng's daughter-in-law and a few women suddenly took a few steps forward, surrounded Wu Xiaofu, pointed at his nose and shouted, "The Wu family doesn't have a good thing, not even a bandit, and it won't be good to bury your whole family alive, and my sister-in-law will not forgive them in the spirit of the sky." ”

Chunlei's daughter-in-law asked, "You say, how did my sister-in-law die, and did she die unjustly?" ”

Wu Xiaofu was already frightened at this time, his mind was blank, he didn't know how to answer, he didn't know how they would drop himself next, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and he couldn't say a stiff word.

Xia Yu's daughter-in-law stepped forward and asked, "Xiaofu, aren't you usually very good at work?" When you quarreled with my sister-in-law, you were very energetic, what happened to you now, your heart is weak, isn't there a ghost in your heart, isn't your sister-in-law pretending to be deaf and dumb when you ask you? Come on, how did my sister-in-law die, unjustly or not? ”

Wu Xiaofu trembled all over, and said in a very low voice, "My mother is sick and dead!" ”

Qiufeng's daughter-in-law gritted her teeth and said, "Put your shit, what are you sick and dying, do you think we don't know, stand up your donkey ears and listen carefully, what do you people in the village say, my sister-in-law died strangely, there is another reason, she was beaten to death by your father's damn old thing!" ”
