Chapter 5 The best hibiscus flowers

On the village road, I saw that the procession was all gathered, and at the front stood three aunts, with a strip of white cloth tied to their foreheads and a sackcloth coat on their bodies, pointing at the crowd in a low voice. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wu Fen looked at the road under his feet, it was quite smooth, so he trotted to the front, just stood up, and reached out to support the white cloth tied on his forehead.

"Why did you come, did you bring a handkerchief, I will be in tears, look at my sadness." Wu Rong saw the person running over, glanced at her sister, and complained.

Wu Fu saw her sister's eyes, afraid that Wu Fen would see something, so she hurriedly answered: "Your second aunt eats too many spicy seeds at noon, and thinks about your father, so forget if you don't bring a handkerchief." ”

Wu Hua didn't have a bewitching look, with a worried look, "Fenfen, you were admitted to college this time, what are you going to do, my sister-in-law also wants to help you, but I don't have any money, and my family still owes money." You know, in the past, I used to process rice noodles and look at making money, but in fact, in addition to the expenses of the family, there was no extra money at all, and your little uncle also transferred the rice noodle machine to Liu Liuzi, and I didn't know how to live on Guqiao Street in the future, I was really worried to death. ”

As soon as Wu Hua finished speaking, he didn't look at the face of the person opposite, turned around, and saw Liu Liuzi in the crowd looking this way, lifting the clothes on his right waist, revealing a black amplifier.

Wu Fen didn't know the thoughts of the three aunts opposite, it was really the best hibiscus flower, this would be a funeral, and the other party would not take it seriously one by one, really when she was 18 years old, she had been a beggar for so many years in her previous life was not done in vain, and her face was better than these three aunts who were calculating others all day long.

Wrinkled the good-looking willow eyebrows, blew the dust that did not exist on the urn, and said sarcastically: "I know the difficulties of the three aunts, didn't the eldest aunt ask the eldest cousin to go home with 300 yuan yesterday to report the news?" The second aunt seems to be talking nonsense with her eyes open, and she didn't put chili peppers in today's dishes, that's because the uncle said that it is not good to keep seeds at the funeral banquet, so where did your chili peppers come from, they are not used to paste their eyes. Didn't you say last month that you were three months pregnant and wanted to avoid family planning, and asked your father to send 200 yuan over, why haven't you been pregnant for five months, isn't it another miscarriage? Sister-in-law, don't even want me to say it, don't expand the machine on the right side of your waist, but it costs more than 100 yuan. ”

What's the matter, how can this girl know clearly, the three people on the other side looked at each other, took a breath, Wu Hua felt a sense of pride and loss in her heart, and saw that the two sisters were counted silently, so she rolled her eyes, and pretended to easily hold Wu Hua's hand holding the urn.

"Fen, look at what you said, this expansion is actually worthless, it's a second-hand parallel import, and it's useless. You see that the burial things are all done over there, so hurry up. As she said this, she pushed the person towards the funeral procession with all her strength, and regardless of whether she would fall or not, she twisted the bucket waist and walked away.

Wu Fen was not on guard, one stumbled, and almost fell, but fortunately there was a telephone pole opposite. Leaning up and looking around at the crowd, the things that will be buried are all put on the test, it is two cedar logs with a diameter of about 16 mm on the left and right, which are coated with red and black paint, and the middle position is nailed to four square short planks that are not so wide, just leaving a hole for the urn, and the four corners of the hole are hung with four thick hemp ropes made of thin rope to hang a wide board, which is used to fix the box and prevent the urn from sinking down the mountain road.

It was not too early, Wu Fen saw her mother standing next to the three aunts, looking at her, so she nodded, got up and hurried to the burial side.

Village Chief Wu lit the firecracker hanging on the trunk of the tree behind him, signaled Wu Fen to kneel down hurriedly, and understood what the other party meant, Wu Fen hurriedly knelt on the ground on the right, kowtowed three times, respectfully lifted the urn and carefully placed it in the square hole, and then took two steps back, kowtowed three more heads, and then knelt on the side without moving.

The mourners lined up spontaneously in the middle of the road, beating gongs and drums as they walked up the hill. Wu Fen is a filial son, after the funeral people passed, he hurriedly got up and followed, and from a distance, he could hear the cry of the three people of the best hibiscus flowers.

Wu Fen looked at the flow of people, and according to what he said before, his uncle should bring his younger brother Wu Qingyuan to come over for the funeral, so he slowly moved his steps and waited for them. Touching the residual warmth on the palm of his hand, he felt that he was still holding his father in his arms just now, and when he thought about it, his tears couldn't stop flowing out, and he also cried.

The weather in July is hot and dry, and the mountains are full of camellia trees, which are growing well. Wu Fen knew that her grandfather was also buried on this mountain, her grandfather passed away when she was just born, and she heard her mother Cheng Xiaolan say that her grandfather used to be a long-term worker in the landlord's family, and she fell in love with her grandmother, so she used the 2 silver dollars she had saved for most of her life to buy her grandmother to be a child daughter-in-law. Grandpa is honest and diligent, and it hurts to put it in the palm of his hand to grandma, so he has developed the temperament that grandma has today.

Wu Fenmu followed the team forward, crying silently, passing by the grandfather's cemetery, the team stopped for a moment, took advantage of this time to quickly take the incense handed over by the village chief Uncle Wu, folded his hands and bowed three times, inserted the incense in the basin in front of him, picked up the paper money prepared next to him early in the morning and burned a large stack, before getting up and continuing to follow the team.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, when I was about to reach the halfway point of the East Mountain, I was patted hard on the shoulder, and I looked back at the person who was panting on the other side, it was my uncle Liao Heng, who was holding a burden in his arms, it should be my younger brother Wu Qingyuan, who was originally going to go back to his hometown with him, but on the night of my father's accident, he suddenly had a high fever in the middle of the night, and his eyes were still covered with feces, and he couldn't open them, and he cried for a night, and before dawn the next day, he was sent to the district hospital where his aunt was for treatment.

When Wu Fen saw his uncle and younger brother, he stopped crying and shouted gratefully: "Uncle, you are here, and my grandfather is also here." Give me the source. After saying that, he took his brother over.

"Your grandfather is sitting at the bottom of the mountain, at your grandmother's house. Your grandmother went to the door. Liao Heng wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand, which made the vest wet.

Wu Fen gently stroked his younger brother's little face, he had been sick for two days, and he was asleep with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes. Hearing Liao Heng's words, he nodded, didn't say anything, turned around and knelt on the ground.

The crowd had stopped, and Liao Heng handed over a strap to help Wu Fen put Wu Qingyuan on his back and tie it with a slipknot. Wu Fen patted his younger brother on the back, knelt and moved to the left side of the burial, straightened his clothes, took off the urn from it with a serious face, kowtowed three times on the ground, stood up and walked three steps, and kowtowed three more times.

I don't know how long it took to kneel in three steps like this, but when I arrived at the cemetery, it was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Wu Fen knelt quietly by the edge of the grave, and the urn had been hoisted into the grave with a rope.

He took the basket handed over by his aunt, took three cups and a bottle of liquor from it, filled them with three glasses of wine, placed them on the front of the tomb one by one, took out incense, lit them, bowed three times, folded the two folded paper coins together and lit them, untied the strap, put his younger brother in front, helped them kowtow together, and sprinkled the wine in the three cups on the ground in turn.

After a burst of gongs and drums sounded, the mourners in the village straightened their expressions one by one, spread the wreaths and paper money on the grave, and slowly walked down the mountain. The grave was gradually filled, Wu Fen cried non-stop by her mother's hand, and her younger brother Wu Qingyuan also began to cry as if she felt something.
