Chapter 183: The Urn (5)

With the help of the branch secretary, Yiqiē went very smoothly.

In the bright moonlight, Brother Zhu's home showed its outline - it was three simple mud-walled houses, one of the side rooms had collapsed due to disrepair, and a pile of weeds had grown on the yellow mud. Under the low eaves, there were piles of messy wheat and rape stalks, and where the flashlight was lit, there was no trace of home, and the blackened and rotten stigma was already overgrown with fungus and unknown mushrooms.

There is still a door god on the door of the hall that I don't know what year it was, and the color painting has faded over the years, leaving only two pairs of big bright eyes looking forward to the return of the master.

I don't know if Uncle Zhu had a hunch, or if he was always so forgetful, the door of the hall was not bolted. The branch secretary gently pushed open the door, and lightly closed the door of the inner room, beckoning to the Fushun brothers, and Fushun took the urn, crossed the high wooden threshold, and placed Brother Zhu in front of the ancestors' spirits.

Afraid of waking up the dreamer and the soul, in front of the shrine of the ancestors of the Zhu family, Fu Shun first kowtowed to the ancestors for Brother Zhu, and all the words of awe were silently recited in his heart. After finishing, he lit three more pillars of incense, burned a stack of paper money, and kowtowed again......

"Brother Zhu, you're finally home! May your Spirit of Heaven rest in peace! In the next life, you will still be my good big brother! Fu Shun finished his salute and withdrew from the hall, he wiped his tears, "Brother Zhu, who has a hard life, please forgive my little brother for his incompetence, in this dark night, I don't even dare to light a sleeping lamp!" ”

Zhishu and Fuqiang had already withdrawn from the hall, and this distant cousin, it seemed that this qiē had nothing to do with him.

Fu Qiang asked the branch secretary softly: "Secretary Zhu, when does Uncle Zhu usually get up, and will the urn attract his attention?" ”

The secretary replied, "He has bad eyes, so he shouldn't be able to see what is on the shrine." But he also didn't keep it, and he would sometimes burn paper in front of the shrine......"

When Fu Qiang saw Fu Shun come out, he pulled him and asked, "That box is not small, what if it attracts the attention of the old man?" ”

"I'm also worried, can I bury him first? This is a trip home. It's also time to comfort the ancestors! Fu Shun glanced at the room and said to the eldest brother and the secretary.

"This can't be done, two bosses, you have to wait for the civil affairs to come! That's how it goes. Tomorrow before dawn, I will pick up the second uncle to my house for breakfast, let my father accompany him to blow the cow in the morning, let's do this in the morning! "The secretary finally came up with a useful idea.

"It couldn't be better!" Fu Qiang said gratefully, "Secretary." Then I'll trouble you, where are the mountains, forests and fields of the old uncle's house, take advantage of this moonlight, I'll go and see a piece of yin land......"

"Oh, behind that hill," the secretary said, pointing to the hill behind the house, "shall I take you there?" Boss Sun, will you still do this? ”

"We craftsmen, how much do we have to learn these ......"

Fu Shun hurriedly closed the door and turned on the flashlight to light the way for the branch secretary.

Fuqiang quickly found a place. Although the night is hazy. The moonlight can't let people see farther away, but Fuqiang firmly believes that the piece of Yin Mansion he sees is excellent, and the analysis of "Green Dragon and White Tiger, Vermilion Bird Xuanwu" is the way.

Fushun believes in big brother! Even the branch secretary said with interest: "I want to build a new house, Boss Sun will also help me see the direction if he has time?" ”

Fu Qiang said: "No problem, I must help Secretary Zhu see a good house where the family is safe, the official fortune is prosperous, and the wealth is rolling!" ”

After all this, the rooster has already announced! The branch secretary kept the two brothers at home to rest. Fu Qiang smiled and said, "No, I've bothered you for so long!" You go home and rest, and I want you to pick up Uncle Zhu early tomorrow, and I will bring Director Li with me at dawn tomorrow! Yes, and two brothers from Guangsha. Tomorrow we have to bring the compensation to ......."

Secretary Zhu laughed twice, and the three of them said goodbye. The two Fushun brothers rushed back to Wulongtian, and the two of them set up a dragon gate array in the furniture factory for a while, ready to go to the town government to find Director Li.

"Shun'er. This compensation is indeed a lot, but it must not fall into the hands of Zhu Dacheng......"

"Yes, I don't think the village party secretary is a good person, I look at Brother Zhu's sparse old house at night, and the money that Brother Zhu sent back before was all asked to be transferred to Uncle Zhu, I guess the branch secretary found a lot from it!"

"For a while. Give the money to the civil administration, and they will spend it, I know that Director Li of the civil affairs is a good person, it is best to ask them to get the old man to the nursing home......"

"Or, brother, the 'five guarantee households' only live in a nursing home, can't let Uncle Zhu know that he is alone!"

"Hey, too! You will sort out the formalities with the civil affairs for a while, and when you arrive at Sunjiawan, you will say that your colleague will give the compensation to the town government and leave first! Director Li and I have a good relationship, this matter should not be difficult to do! ”

"Well, brother, it's still your brain!"

While speaking, the two of them had already arrived at the town hall. The cadres in the town lived in the courtyard, and although it was still early for work, Fu Qiang knocked on the door of the house of Director Li of the Civil Affairs Office.

"Boss Sun? Wow so early? I've just gotten up! Director Li opened the door with a toothbrush in his hand.

"I'm sorry, Director Li, I bothered you so early, I have an urgent matter to trouble you!"

"The two of me are still polite, saying, whatever is the matter, I must do it!"

"It's the thing I blew with you yesterday, Zhu Jianguo of Sunjiagou, the ashes were sent back...... Fu Qiang told him everything about last night, and asked Fu Shun to show Director Li the Wen Jiàn he brought back.

"Okay, I'll report to the secretary and the mayor as soon as I go, and I'll go with you in the morning...... Thank you two brothers! After reading the text, Director Li put it away and put it away.

Fushun quickly stood up and said, "It's not hard! It's not hard! Director Li, the company also regretted the death of Brother Zhu, and the leaders of the Third Bureau also went to visit him at the scene......"

"Hey, this Zhu Jianguo, everyone thought he was dead, and you suddenly sent this telegram, we only knew that this person was still alive! This time, his father has really become a five-guarantee household......" Director Li sighed after speaking.

"No, doesn't he send money home every year?" Fu Shun took out the remittance slip and a few letters from his bag, "Why do you think he is dead?" And the ID card, you see......"

The director took the things and looked at the ID card again, "This ID card is not handled by our police station, it may be a fake document!" This Zhu Jianguo has never come back since he left in 81! The village reported that he was missing...... It seems that this Zhu Dacheng has done something that has lost his conscience! ”

As expected, Fushun expected. Zhu Dacheng is even more excessive! In other words, Uncle Zhu always thought that his son was dead! Right now...... You can't let Zhu Jianguo die again, right?

"Zhu Dacheng of ****, black conscience!" Fu Qiang said angrily, "Director Li." I'll go to the police station to report the crime! ”

"Don't worry, I'll report to the town leaders first, and I will definitely deal with it strictly, and we will collect the compensation and ashes first, and arrange their use reasonably. Is there a will? Director Li asked Fushun.

"Nope. You look at the death certificate, you fall and you lose your breath......"

"Hmm...... You sit down first, I'll go to the leader to report, I'll go with you in a while, he Zhu Dacheng can't escape! After Director Li finished speaking, he went out with his slippers.

Fu Shun had all kinds of feelings in his heart, it was impossible for Brother Zhu to know what kind of person he trusted! Now, only by bringing this bad man to justice can he comfort his spirit in heaven!

Not long after, Director Li returned. "The secretary and the mayor agreed that we would bury Zhu Jianguo first. Nor can the work of the brothers be delayed! The police station here will file a case soon, and the remittance slip is the evidence, just because he Zhu Dacheng lied about the population, he can also be copied! ”

Fu Qiang nodded, "Director Li, let's go, let's go have breakfast first!" ”

"Just eat buns in the cafeteria downstairs, I invite you! It's hard work for you two now! Boss Sun, your brother is not only a talent. Young and promising, and just like you, a warm-hearted person! Xiao Liu, don't you know that you, this brother, are a well-known figure in our Wulong......" Director Li went downstairs. While chatting with Fushun about his eldest brother's "glorious deeds".

After breakfast, the secretary of the town party committee found Director Li and asked him to drive the town's car to Zhujiagou, and the town also sent several other comrades......

Zhu Dacheng didn't fall asleep either, and went to take Uncle Zhu to his father early in the morning. Then go to the entrance of the village and wait for the arrival of the "compensation"!

Soon, his hope appeared! Five or six people walked down from the small car in the town. Zhu Dacheng greeted him and shook hands with Director Li. Pull Fushun aside and ask about the compensation.

Fu Qiang said on the side: "My brother and colleague's car broke down on the dirt road, slow down!" ”

This greedy guy still wants to get the compensation first and then let this pedestrian go to Zhu Laohan's house to have his ashes removed! But after all, there are so many people in the town, and one of them is from the police station, and Zhu Dacheng doesn't dare to make a ......

Brother Zhu is finally in the ground!

It was a very inconspicuous grave, not even a tombstone! The two Fushun brothers, the village cadres and the four comrades in the town quickly completed the ceremony, which did not even have wreaths and elegiac couplets.

Zhu Dacheng kowtowed in front of the grave "heartbroken". Fu Shun squatted on the ground and burned paper, eager to stuff this hypocrite into the soil and let him bury Brother Zhu!

Other people in the village also came to see the excitement, and many people thought that the father of the village party secretary had died!

The paper burned out, and Zhu Dacheng cried enough! Only then did he get up and quietly ask Fushun: "What about your two colleagues?" I'll sign for the compensation on behalf of my second uncle......"

Fu Shun clenched his fists tightly and popped out a few words from between his teeth: "The compensation has been given to the town!" ”

"This ...... Isn't it the family member who signs for it? He pulled Fushun, and he really wanted to take out the dead people in the soil to blackmail the kind Fushun!

Director Li watched from a short distance and said loudly, "Old Zhu, what are the arrangements for today's lunch?" ”

Zhu Dacheng turned around and smiled, "It's at my house, it's all in order, let's go, Li Suo!" ”

Fu Qiang put away the hoes, shovels and other tools in the cemetery, and walked down the mountain with a few cadres shouting. "Not to mention, I'm so hungry after a morning of work!"

Zhu Dacheng also wanted to ask about the compensation, but was interrupted by a cigarette from Director Li, "Old Zhu, smoke!" You have to testify to me, I didn't even catch a cigarette when I came to Zhujiagou! Haha......"

"Pump me, Li Suo!" Only then did Zhu Dacheng take out a pack of "red plum cigarettes" from his pocket and give one to each leader......

Fushun finally met Brother Zhu's father. It was a gray-haired old man, his face was full of wrinkles and age spots, his body was rickety, his hands were shaking, and even if he sat there, he was out of breath and looked at the strangers with dull eyes...... Fushun suddenly blamed Brother Zhu a little! Whatever the reason, he shouldn't have left such a poor old man in this mountain village!

"Uncle!" Fu Shun squatted down, ready to chat with Uncle Zhu, "Are you still tough?" ”

The old man didn't seem to hear clearly, and shook his head for a while, and nodded again for a while.

Zhu Dacheng brought out a basin of water from the house and beckoned everyone to wash their hands. "Boss Liu, go wash your hands, my second uncle's ears are not good......" He pulled Fu Shun up and helped Uncle Zhu into the house.

Fu Shun looked at the poor back, his eyes blurred!

"Shun'er," the eldest brother called him, "Maybe he really can't hear it, don't be too sad, just now Li said, they will take the old man to the town nursing home in a few days, this place ...... Ay! Seeing Zhu Dacheng come out, he shook his head and stopped talking.

Nursing home, perhaps this is the best choice for the elderly!

After eating, Director Li insisted on leaving twenty yuan for living expenses, and the group went back to the town! On the way, they met several colleagues from the police station, and they had already determined that Zhu Dacheng had signed for the remittance sent by Zhu Jianguo in the post, and were ready to arrest this wicked person!

Fushun's heart felt a little better......

Back in town, Fushun went to his eldest brother's house for the first time. It was a small three-story building, at the head of the town, the first floor was the hardware store, the second floor was furnished with exquisite furniture ready for sale, and the third floor was their bedroom. Such a private and decent little building is second to none in the whole town!

Fushun is proud of the eldest brother's family business! He relied on his wisdom and diligence to create a world in a foreign land, even if it is his father, he will be proud of this eldest son! As for changing his surname, Fushun has long stopped treating this as a humiliation!

I just entered the sales department, and a big fat boy came out of the container. The eldest brother picked up his son, "Obviously, call the second uncle!" ”

Fushun then remembered that he had a two-year-old nephew. came back so far away, he didn't bring a gift, Fushun also showed an embarrassed smile like a child, and then went to the door to buy a bunch of sugar balls and handed it to the "little wit".

Obviously, he didn't seem to recognize his life, but Ma Yuan'er said: "Thank you, second uncle!" Then I went to my mother to show off.

My sister-in-law looks like a capable woman, busy selling things in the container. The business of the store department is very good, and there is an endless stream of customers coming in and out.

"Coming back? That's the second uncle, right? Go upstairs and sit! The sister-in-law greeted Fushun while calling him an iron nail...... (To be continued.) )
