Chapter 111 Shade of the Hereafter
On the morning of the funeral, before dawn, Wu Wei and a few people rushed to the hospital first, and the relatives and friends who rushed to hear the news gradually gathered more and more, but Song Xueren did not come, and Wu Wei and Song Rou couldn't help but be anxious. It was almost time for the funeral, and Da Jing rushed to say that his father had a heart attack, tossed in the middle of the night, incontinent, and couldn't come. Wu Wei immediately arranged for Song Rou's second brother Song Xueli to take over. In the process of handling the matter, the eldest brother did not appear, and he didn't care about him to inquire about him, but it also became a muttering thing in the hearts of relatives, causing all kinds of speculation. After the old man's funeral was successfully completed under Wu Wei's control, several people made an appointment to see Song Xueli, and the result was much better than expected, so the speculation was confirmed.
In the evening, Song Rou went to the bathroom to take a bath, and when she came back, she wore her hair with a strong fragrance, and said that there would be nothing to do in the future, and she wanted to go with her son, and she would go if she said she would go, and she would play mahjong in the future, and she would do whatever she wanted.
Wu Wei also thinks that the success of the child's college entrance examination will push his parents to the second peak of his life, become a beautiful talk, Pepsi filial piety first, send his parents a smooth and successful end, complete the big things in life, and gain new freedom in thought, spirit, and time, which should be entering a new era of happiness in life.
At night, Wu Wei and Song Rou were lying on the bed, Song Rou said, you think you have done so many things and I am satisfied, if I want to hear it, you will not be able to say it in your life, you don't know what I think.
Wu Wei said, seeing that you were angry like that yesterday, I was distressed to death, I just want to sort things out again, do things well, and pass smoothly, doesn't this make you the most comfortable and have the most face? How do I feel when I read Dream of Red Mansions? The big family of Nuo. No one has been able to stand up and reverse that decline? This is true of any family, unit, or even country. I also want to catch up with the old man's deathbed, and they are doing things that people can't stand it. However, the old people are gone, and the brothers and sisters of the same milk have no contact?
Hearing this, Song Rou couldn't help crying.
Wu Wei persuaded, I mean, there is still a place between brothers and sisters, and the old man will be at ease in another world.
Song Rou choked up. When the business is done, gather everyone together for a meal.
Wu Wei said that this is the best, and the brothers and sisters still need to get better. You said. In the past, Da Jing was a good child, but now it is not good, especially through this incident. You also have to understand her, she's in that kind of family. From time to time, things like this and that come up. It's no wonder if she doesn't crush her into shape, how much ability she can afford to bear that weight. You should say and say, this is to educate her, don't let that family crush her, you have to help and do when you encounter something, you have to do it, that family will not have to rely on her in the future, if she wants to go on like this, how can she bear it in the future? Again. Doing things is like a flat shoulder, which can carry so much weight. Add more weight and press it up, and when it reaches a certain amount, if you add a little more, you can't stand it, and things will go hay.
The round grave, which had been calmed down, suddenly had twists and turns. The sister-in-law said that she would not participate, and indeed did not participate in the send-off, which triggered a thorough ethical criticism from the relatives, accusing and sarcasm. On the eve of the round grave, Wu Wei received a happy notice from the eldest brother that his sister-in-law also participated in the round grave. At Wu Wei's house, everyone was very surprised at first, and then laughter and abuse broke out. Song Rou's heart suddenly felt uncomfortable and couldn't stand it. Song Xia said, you should go to the children quickly, stay away from these bad things, and don't be upset. Everyone felt as if they were being teased and teased. Not participating in the death of the elderly violates the ethical bottom line that everyone firmly adheres to, but at this moment, it is easily given up and broken through in what name, and the things that are valued by others are easily given up by others, as if they are also thrown into the garbage, and they are enraged. Wu Wei felt that even the understanding and tolerance he showed became insignificant with the participation of his eldest sister-in-law. From now on, will it be possible for people to trample on any of the more serious ethical lines of defense in any name or under any pretext, just as they can be treated as easily and freely as going to work after breakfast and going for a walk after dinner? People are relaxed and free, and this easy freedom does not have to pay any price. Radical subversion, radical subversion. There is even a case where you can go to court if you don't send it to the end, but there is no such article in the law. Actions like this are subject to the judgment of the Ethics Court. Can the realization of individual freedom be unconstrained by any bottom line? Is it going to be a heavier price?
At the scene of the round grave, the sister-in-law's face was still ugly, everyone was busy burning paper there, she just stood aside, looking like she was not intervening. Everyone didn't say anything, but they were very estranged in their hearts. This is the price that must be paid for a change of faith, the psychological pressure that must be endured. Wu Wei thought, what will happen if the old people in the future go through the process after they die? Future generations may be able to face that process with ease. Besides, instead of thinking about how to face death happily, people find it difficult to accept the attitude of facing death with ease. However, the sister-in-law's actual mentality may not be relaxed, she may hide her hatred for the old man, so she will show such a demeanor. Wu Wei thought about it again, the eldest brother and their family can already be difficult to live, so don't be reluctant to make it difficult, and who can lend a helping hand to help their family.
Wu Wei said, some of the expenses will be borne by us, and the money for the elderly will be divided among several families. Song Rou said, here it is again, no wonder they all say hello, you are a good person, they are not like that, if they are like that, don't talk about this money, they think things too badly. I'm not like you, and I'm not partial to our family. They said that we should do more as our conditions are good. What's the matter with good conditions, good conditions are not made by ourselves, at the beginning we were the worst conditions, they were in good conditions, thinking about who helped whom? Even if you help, you have to see if it's worth helping.
Song Rou was haggard and extremely tired, and went to the hospital to do an electrocardiogram, which was basically normal, and she could recover after resting and adjusting. Song Judo, I can't stand it when I hear those things. After burning the paper, he said, on that occasion, I see that you can still speak, but my words can't be spoken, and when I say it, I can't stand it, and my feelings are sensitive and fragile.
Wu Wei once proposed the trend of the outward migration of the function of family support for the elderly, and the article was also published. Someone who knew his point of view and said that now young people's concepts have changed and they don't want to support the elderly. It's only been more than 20 years. There are already many more apartments for the elderly than nurseries. Even so, R&F tentatively asked his elderly father to send you to an apartment for the elderly. Immediately replied, no, I will send it when I am old and confused, and I don't know what to do at that time. R&F's old mother-in-law is 90 years old, and she forgot to eat or not after eating. What is the food, listening to R&F they are interested in talking about it in the elderly apartment is also good, don't look at the old mother-in-law is confused about the issue of eating. But I am too sober on such an issue, I have raised five children, and they can't support me alone?
After the funeral, chatting at home, Song Xia said to Liu Yi. Also. Look at his house, his father is parked in the back room, and his brothers are eating, drinking, laughing, and talking about useless things in the outhouse.
Wu Weidao, the death of the old man is a happy funeral, Sima Qian said that there are five blessings in life, and a good death is one of the five blessings, which is originally a happy thing. Don't be so sad. Wu Wei thought that such a statement was easy for the family to accept. The mental activity program compiled by oneself is not yet mature, and it is easy to mess up people's spirits when they say it, so it is better not to say it in front of outsiders.
The reunion dinner on the night of the round tomb was warm. Song Xueren and his family still did not participate, they were embarrassed to participate, so they were presided over by Song Xueli, he said first, the two old people were reunited in heaven, everyone did their best for the old man's affairs, things went very smoothly and satisfactorily, the old man will also bless us as children, happy and mournful, today everyone is also lively to drink some wine, happy and happy, I wish everyone harmony and health, family happiness! Wu Wei, who was sitting next to him, sandwiched vegetables and meat for him, and said with a smile, Second Brother eat more.
Wu Wei wanted to set off the atmosphere, but he didn't say anything, he didn't have anything to say, especially Song Rou, he couldn't stand it as soon as he said this scene. Wu Wei said, the second brother is finished, I'll say it first. Song Xia said, you have the most reason to say it first. Wu Wei continued, first say that there are benefits, and when others have said it, and the good words have been used, it will be difficult to say. What I want to say is that the origin of today's incident, on the night of the funeral, Song Rou cried and told me that the two old people were gone, and the brothers and sisters would have no contact in the future, and they would have to have a reunion dinner that night. The second brother just said very well, the whole thing is smooth and successful, relying on everyone's dedication to enjoy this effect, the uncle's Baishan little brother is special today, and the critical time is in place, especially the relatives who came from outside to pick up the station and get the funeral in the morning, and after lunch, they have been busy until the second half of the night, which is very hard. The two elders are reunited in heaven, we are reunited in the world as children, I wish the two elders happiness in heaven, and the two elders in heaven will also bless our children and grandchildren with happiness, the inscription on the most reluctant sentence, shade of the future generations, I said to Wu Song, he said, I have never seen that kind of usage, the shade word is a word for two purposes, when the parents are alive, they are the backers of the children, when the children's backs are against the big tree to enjoy the shade, the parents to the underworld still bless the prosperity and happiness of future generations. There are two elders gone, sister, the meaning of the bridge, it seems that they will not come later, and today is also to give them a meal, so that they will still have a thought and rush in the future. Then it's time to drink and toast.
Wu Wei said, I want to have a glass of wine with Song Rou today. Everyone coaxed, did she bring you happiness? Wu Weidao, I married Song Rou as my greatest happiness in life, I am happy all the time, and I will be happy all my life.
Wu Wei and Jing sister said, in the three days when the old man was in a deep coma and entered a dying state, my sister insisted on guarding at night, so that we could make time to design the process and rest and arrange the future.
I have to honor you. Don't, I have to respect you. So cheers.
Wu Wei respects the second sister-in-law, and has a responsibility at the critical moment, and wishes the second sister-in-law to grow younger and more beautiful.
The second sister-in-law smiled and said, who is it, I am so old and beautiful, go and respect your beautiful daughter-in-law, comfort and comfort her, and see what makes her sad.
Wu Wei and Zhang Luo, I'll have a drink with a few of you, see if you can take care of things, all of you can take the lead, have a drink! Again, eldest nephew, let's have a drink, I told you that day to track the whole process, it is good for you, your two brothers-in-law are people who have gone through the world, you have to pay attention to learning, you are the third generation of heads, the third generation of leaders. Later, I told Wu Song, and he also said that I would tell him about it. Dawei said, yes, the words that the old uncle said that day are not something that ordinary people can say.
It is the turn of the younger generations to toast, and they have expressed their attitudes, through this incident, we have seen the filial piety of the elders to the elderly, and set an example for us, we must pass it on, carry it forward, etc., not to mention it one by one.
Wu Wei's mother-in-law is in the apartment for the elderly, and he must go there every Sunday. See if there are any elderly people who want to eat something delicious to buy. The old man was very happy in his heart, and sometimes dreamed of him. Later, the old man went to the hospital, and he insisted on taking a detour every morning to go to work for months. I also bought buns for the special care, hoping that the special care would be more dedicated. He believes that when the old man can see it when he is alive, he will be more filial, and sometimes he will kneel down and kowtow to the old man at night, and the old man will be happy when he sees it. When the elderly enter a state of separation at the end of their lives, he guards the elderly and reminds their relatives what they should pay attention to in hospice care. It also gave him the opportunity to get in touch with the mental state of the apartment service staff. He was touched by their work and their state of mind. When the elderly left, he wrote a letter of thanks, and later suggested that the relevant departments should strengthen the standardized management of nursing staff in elderly apartments, and suggested that their treatment be improved. The whole society should fully understand, respect and care for their status and work. The following is a thank you letter drafted by Wu Wei:
Warm Home:
We are the children of Song's mother. From staying in the warm home to leaving, the elderly lasted three months and two days, and received meticulous care from Yu Chenxia, Sun Yafang, Zhang Yuanfang, and Li Guiju, the special care service staff on the first floor of the East Wing. In the face of the elderly who have lost their ability to take care of themselves, they are not afraid of hardship, tiredness or dirty. Cleaning and laundry to keep the room hygienic. Serving the elderly to feed and wash, from morning to night, from night to early morning, from time to time to each elderly person, tucking the quilt corners, asking about the warmth. They have created a cordial and warm, coaxing the elderly to speak in an environment, Liu Niang, Aunt Zhao, Shi's mother, Song's mother kept shouting, patting the elderly, and kissing again, this room is full of my parents, so that the elderly special care room is full of warmth, peace and joy. It also allows the elderly to receive care and care that is better than their own children. Our Song Ma is even more different from other elderly people, she is constipated when she walks, eats, and has lost all her speech skills. Almost paralyzed, the four sisters gave meticulous and patient care, prepared nasal feeding, often helped the elderly to sit up, combed their hair and wiped their bodies every day, and in the case of the elderly's difficulty in defecation, Yu Chenxia personally deducted the stool for the elderly, making the elderly feel more cordial and intimate. Today, in an aging society, they carry forward the traditional virtues of respecting, respecting and serving the elderly, show the spirit of dedication, diligence and happiness, create a veritable and happy warm home, embody the purpose of warmth, and win the respect and praise of the children of the elderly. As the children of the elderly, I am deeply grateful for the love they have shown to the elderly like children, and I also express my deep admiration for the service staff in the warm home.
Thank you! Song's mother's children.
There is something to hate in the wretched. Speaking of Song Xueli, looking at his body and spirit and the difficult things in his family, it is really pitiful; Looking at talking and doing things, I only care about myself and don't even care about my parents, and sometimes I pretend, which is really hateful. When the old man is there, the old man is gone, and the child is not. Always scheming with the old man, the old man is partial to this, reasonable to that, brought a child to this one, and let that take over the shift, which is not good for himself, and he inherited the property from the old man, but said that he made up the difference when he moved, which seems to be complaining that the inheritance is not in place. Song Rou listened and said politely, without your parents' house, you don't even have a chance to make up the difference. Wu Wei often said to Song Rou and them, don't worry about him, his own life has become a problem, don't make him troublesome anymore.
When encountering big things, avoid walking, don't stretch out your hands, do small things, and then blindly comfort yourself. Wu Wei asked Liu Yi, do you want to watch "Dream of Red Mansions"? He said, I don't look at this, make money to support my wife and children.
Song Rou and Wu Wei discussed in private, without cultural taste, what state can they feed their wives and children?
Song Xia said, even Xiao Er didn't admire him anymore, what was Zhang Luo was very happy at the beginning, and when he saw that it was going to cost money, he found an excuse to retreat and hide.
Song Rou said to Wu Wei in private, my sister also said that others, when she saw that her friend was gone, her mother was about to sell, and she hurriedly sold the house, and people said that buying a house was for friends. Friendship is no substitute for family affection.
One day, Song Xia chatted about Liu Yi's condition again, and after checking, emphysema, he was quite confident, blind, I was not that disease at all, and threw the list aside. I'm still confident, I was panting there that time, hurry, I can't do it, hurry up and call 120!
Wu Wei asked: So serious, what kind of disease is it?
Song Xia said, spasms.
Wu Wei asked again, why didn't you find out in the past?
Song Xia said, I didn't go to a big hospital, but I went to see it this time, the doctor was in his 30s, and when he came back from studying abroad, people looked at the list and said that I can take care of your illness. Sure enough, it was cured.
Song Rou said that parents should take care of their children by themselves, and by the side of the elderly, you see that children are used to it. At that time, Wu Wei said, it is not a proper thing for you to be parents, to educate children, you must be parents, find problems in time, guide them positively, and be able to do things if there is a problem. We went to Binhai to see the uncle that year, and he felt that he was very sorry for his life, he had educated so many students, but he didn't educate his own children well, and his own knife couldn't cut his own handle.
Liu Yi said that at that time, he was busy going out to make money, and he didn't have time to take care of his children.
Wu Weidao, I said in class that cultivating good children is the biggest financial management item in life.
Send Song Xia and Liu Yi back to the south, buy food and drink in the car, fruits, peanuts and beans, dried tofu, pork belly, pig ears, a few beers, boiled dumplings and take them to the car to soak in boiling water, which is very delicious.
Wu Wei asked, why is this bag always so heavy? Gold bar?
Song Xia said with a smile, the bud rice ballast, I am willing to eat it when I get it over there, it is better than that over there. This place in my hometown has a crop, the land is fertile, the crops are full of fruits, so they are delicious, and there are two crops a year, and the land is lacking, and the crops and fruits are naturally not as good as here.
