Chapter 44 Candidates for Village Heads (2)

Yang Shan cried for a while after being teased by Yang Jing, Yang Shan cried, Yang Hui and Yang Jing accompanied him like this, and Yang Yu showed a bitter and hateful expression, obviously wanting to cry, but holding back.

When Yang Shan finally managed to control his good feelings, his attention was all attracted by the sound in the living room. The person named Zhao Da inside had the loudest voice and the most words from him. Although he made a long story short at the beginning, what he said later was basically nonsense that went off track, and it was not enough to say.

In addition to Zhao Da, Liu's father is the most active. Liu's father's name is Liu Qian, Yang Shan has never seen it, but because of Liu's reasons, he doesn't have a good impression of this person.

The others basically echoed the two of them, but Mrs. Yang didn't open her mouth after entering the living room except for the words of mourning from the door.

These people are all revolving around Yang Qingnian when they talk about it, and Boss Zhao is a rising bird and is responsible for speaking. But this up-and-coming bird is not very competent and always digresses, while Yanagi can always get back to the topic in a few words.

After talking some nonsense, Zhao Dacai finally bypassed the topic from Yang Qingnian and asked: "Our village is not big, but there are more than a dozen families when it is small. Brother Yang walked suddenly...... Alas...... Since Brother Yang didn't have a favorite candidate for the village chief during his lifetime, let's elect one. ”

After Boss Zhao finished saying this, only Liu Qian said: "Yes, let's elect a village chief." ”

The others were silent.

Hearing what they said, Yang Shan and Yang Hui glanced at each other, and Yang Shan asked, "Does the village chief need to be elected?" ”

Yang Hui shook her head, looking inexplicable: "The village chiefs of our village are all surnamed Yang, what do you choose?" ”

At this time, the village chief was 108,000 miles different from the village chief after the reform and opening up, at first Yang Shan didn't know what Yang Qingnian did, and then occasionally found that Yang Qingnian not only blessed the safety of one party, but also suppressed the villagers, and when the court expropriated the fields, Yang Qingnian even turned into a villain who bullied the township and the market.

Yang Shan couldn't accept it after finding out, and later told Yang Hui about it after getting acquainted with Yang Hui. After hearing this, Yang Hui replied to Yang Shan in a natural tone: "What's wrong with this? ”

If it doesn't make sense, Yang Shan won't say it, but then I thought that this is a feudal society, and the political structure is very different from the future, so I gradually forced myself to treat it normally.

Just like this completely unreasonable way of doing things, in Yangjiazhuang and even some villages that Yang Shan knows, the next village chief has never been elected by himself, if Lao Tzu goes, his son will be the son, and if there is no son, it will be the turn of "others". This "other person" is not a relative of the previous village chief, and it is also recognized by the people in the ancestral hall.

Yang Hui said this, Yang Shan is even more inexplicable, to say that the village chief must be surnamed Yang, there are also seven or eight families surnamed Yang in Yangjiazhuang, and everyone is related to each other around a few bends, so it is the turn of these people with foreign surnames to elect the village chief? You must know that the ancestral hall of Yangjiazhuang will not allow these people with foreign surnames to enter. One day when the ancestral hall was still there, this Yang Jiazhuang was still the main thing surnamed Yang.

The more Yang Shan thought about it, the more he felt that it was wrong, and pushed Yang Hui and said, "Sister Hui, you go to see if there is a Yang family among the people you see, I only see the old lady with the surname Yang." ”

Yang Hui walked to the living room lightly after hearing this, looked at the door twice and came back, frowned and said, "This thing is strange today, we will ask when they leave." ”

Yang Shan nodded.

There was silence for a long time inside, and Yang Xubei's voice came: "Everyone also knows Yangjiazhuang's habits, and I won't say anything else." It's not early today, please come back, if there is anything we will discuss tomorrow. Yang Xubei spoke slowly, this big brother has always been calm, and Yang Shan was relieved to hear him say this.

Yang Qingnian passed away, Yang Yu was still a child, and it was most appropriate for Yang Shan's family to come forward by Yang Xubei at this time.

After Yang Xubei finished speaking, the group of people who came over did not speak. Yang Xubei didn't care about them at this time, walked up to Old Lady Yang, raised his voice and said: "Old lady, my uncle went suddenly, there was no preparation at home, and the eldest mother and younger brothers and sisters had no master." We're going to discuss the future, old lady, do you have anything to do with you coming back tomorrow? ”

The old lady's ears were a little bad, and Yang Xubei said it twice before he understood. Although Yang Shan and the others didn't hear the old lady's answer outside, after a while, the people inside rushed out.

When everyone left, Yang Hui and Yang Shan greeted them, but the two had a tacit understanding, and they cooperated with each other to sort out what happened just now, but they still didn't see anything wrong.

Without waiting for Yang Shan to think about it again, the Huang family, the Gu family, and Yang Xubei discussed Yang Qingnian's future together, and not long after the second uncle went, the Huang family decided to do everything according to the second uncle. However, there are two problems, this coffin and shroud are not prepared at home, the coffin is better, you can take out the old lady's coffin board and use it first, but the shroud is afraid that it will be rushed out overnight.

"Let's hurry, we should get out tomorrow at noon." Yang Hui was very good at needlework in the end, and she responded in one bite.

"Tonight, Yang Yu and I will keep vigil, and we will go to report the funeral early tomorrow morning. Yang Shan, you can't sleep tonight, and you and your aunt and Sister Hui will rush to make shrouds. Auntie, you and Jingzi go to rest first, there must be a lot of people coming these days, let Jingzi accompany you to prepare wine and food early in the morning, Jingzi can still do it, what is still missing at home, you say, we will also go to the town tomorrow morning, and bring it back by the way. Grandma, you don't have to worry, there is a small town mother at home to take care of it. Yang Xubei ordered them one by one and arranged things properly.

Gu Shi was not ready to sleep tonight, and even brought needles and threads, and naturally had no opinion when he heard Yang Xubei's arrangement for a while, but after a while, he saw that something was wrong, and asked, "Why don't you see your third uncle's family?" ”

The people here don't know it, it's just that it's not broken. Gu is so loud now, everyone can't pretend to be stupid.

Huang Shi's eyes were red, but when he spoke again, he didn't have the rampaging tone of the past, and just said lightly: "I didn't expect them in the first place." Yang Shan looked at Huang, Huang's face was much haggard, and his eyes were almost swollen and he couldn't see the original appearance.

Yang Shan stepped forward and hugged the Huang family, and said softly: "Mother, you still have us!" ”

Yang Yu also stepped forward to hug the Huang family, and the sister and brother rarely stuck to the Huang family.

Huang had mixed feelings at this moment and didn't dare to speak, for fear that he would cry again as soon as he opened his mouth. hugged the two children and let go, and nodded to the Gu family, although they didn't speak, but their gratitude was overflowing.
