At night, the brother-in-law was on duty at the hospital, and the sister and nephew lived in Fang's mother's house. The brother-in-law also drove Fang Xinning home, so that he could rest at ease and not delay work the next day.

That night, Wang Jingzhi did not return home. Fang Xinning called her, but she didn't answer. He went to the steamed bun shop again, and the door was locked. Apparently, she lived in her mother's house.

At night, Fang Xinning tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, he never imagined that his marriage would come to a dead end so soon. His mind was a mess, and many people and events from the past were floating in front of him like a movie.

Alas, life is really a big book, a big book that you may not be able to read in a lifetime. Thinking about these things, he slowly fell asleep.

In the early hours of the morning, Fang Xinning suddenly heard a hurried knock on the door.

It's the heart of the party.

"Xinning, Xinning, open the door quickly." Fang Xinxin's voice sounded a little out of tune.

Fang Xinning hurriedly opened the door, Fang Xinxin stood at the door and said, "Your brother-in-law called and said that my mother was not good." ”

"What? What did you say? Fang Xinning almost jumped.

"It's not good to say that my mother is bad." Fang Xinxin repeated again.

Fang Xinning rushed out of the apartment and ran all the way to the hospital. He has to fly, otherwise he won't be able to see his mother, and his mother will wait for him. He held back his tears, and couldn't let his mother see that he had cried, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to let go of her heart.

It's still dark, the street lights are just on, and it's still quiet everywhere. But on the way, a person was flying, and he was going to hold his mother's hand and not let her go.

He flew all the way to his mother's hospital room, which was already covered with a white sheet.

The brother-in-law cried bitterly and said: "My mother has been very calm, and I have been staring, and when I found that my mother's condition was wrong, I hurriedly called the doctor to rescue her." The mother's breathing became more and more rapid, and her face turned purple. The doctor rescued him for half an hour and ......"

Fang Xinning stood there dumbfounded. He doesn't blame his brother-in-law, his brother-in-law has done his best. He was sad that his mother didn't even leave a word.

My sister also came, and as soon as she entered the house, she began to cry, and her mouth was whining, and she couldn't hear anything clearly.

Ren Nande and Jin Yanan were the first to get the news and rushed over from home to help take care of the funeral.

Fang Xinning maintained a posture from beginning to end, and he didn't shed a single tear. He seems to have seen through the world, and he seems to know that this is how it should be today.

It's noon. Fang Xincai dragged their family in a car - his father, mother, wife and son An Ting came together, and said that his cousin had taken leave from the army and was buying tickets.

When the school leaders and teachers heard the news, they also began to rush here. There are more and more people.

Fang Xinning called his uncle to him and said, "Uncle, you can worry about my mother's affairs, just do it simply." Don't go out of your way. ”

"No, I don't agree." The second uncle said.

Fang Xinning fell to his knees with a thud. He said, "Uncle." Please, my mother's life was simple during her lifetime, and she didn't like trouble after she died. ”

"No, I heard that your mother's death is related to Wang Baosen's bastard, and our Fang family must not spare him."

"Uncle. My mother is sick, don't blame others anymore, don't let her die without a good life. Fang Xinning begged the second uncle again.

The second aunt came over, and Lala the corner of her husband's clothes said, "The child has said it." What else are you blocking, are people who have studied not as good as you? ”

"Go to the side, the man is discussing things, what kind of mouth do the girls have!" The second uncle scolded his wife.

Fang Xinxin came over and said to the second uncle, "Uncle, just listen to Ning Ning." ”

The second uncle let out a long sigh.

Cai Jie was caught in the crowd and couldn't hold back her tears. She pulled out her handkerchief and went into the hallway, letting the tears flow to her heart's content.

In the end, the funeral was done according to Fang Xinning's words, first sending people from the village to cremate the remains, and then taking the ashes home and burying them with his father Chen Baoguo. Wang Jingzhi's family did not show up.

In fact, Xin County is engaged in funeral reform and advocates simple funerals. Fang Xinning's approach has been supported by the school and the villagers in Yuanshan Village. Fang Xinning also asked Xincai to call his brother and come back without asking for leave, and explain the situation here to him.

The next day, Fang Xinning took her mother to the cemetery. Many people in the village who knew came to help, and they all followed behind Fang Xinning, forming a long line. There used to be a few drummers in the village, but after the funeral reform, they had stopped working, and now they consciously took the guys from home and played them in the procession. The low and mournful voice made the whole team cry.

Soon, my father's grave was opened, and my mother's urn was also put in. I only heard someone shouting, and everyone filled in the soil one after another.

The mound was built. Fang Xinning knelt down again, knocking his head into the grave for a long time. My sister and Xincai and other members of the clan knelt down together and kowtowed to Fang's mother to see her off.

A woman, after the death of the doctor, was widowed for more than 20 years, and after raising her daughter and son, she left quietly.

After the ceremony, everyone picked up Fang Xinning and returned home. Everyone helped him deal with it at home, and then let him go back to school.

Fang Xinning was the first in the entire school to deal with the funeral of the elderly so simply.

Back in the office, he first said to Cai Jie: "Thank you." In the past two days, she has helped her manage the class and substitute for her.

"I heard that your quarrel has something to do with our eating and drinking that day." Cai Jie said slowly.

"It's going to happen sooner or later, and not just because of that night." Fang Xinning said.

"I don't even know what to say, what should I do?" Cai Jie said.

"My mother was actually very uncomfortable when she was alive, she had a bad heart." Although he said this, Fang Xinning's eyes were already red. He was worried that Cai Jie would have a burden on his thoughts, so he smiled at her with red circles in his eyes.

Several teachers also came to comfort him.

"Thank you, I'm fine." Fang Xinning said.

Fang Xinning's mobile phone rang, and a text message came. The text message reads; "Hypocrisy can't last, emptiness can't last long, rotten wood can't be carved, and love can't last long." This is Huang Feng's son's mobile phone number, which is naturally Huang Feng's uncle's teaching to him. It seems that he already knows what is happening to him.

After work, when he returned home, as soon as he opened the door, he suddenly found that the flour at home was gone, and the rest of the things had not moved. He called Wang Jingzhi, and Wang Jingzhi turned off the phone. He came to the steamed bun shop and saw that Wang Baosen was the only one working there. He really didn't have the heart to pay attention to this fierce old man.

In fact, at this moment, Wang Jingzhi's life is not easy. I heard that her mother-in-law had passed away, and her heart was really like ashes, after all, this matter had nothing to do with her father's troubles. Because her body is getting heavier, she can no longer go to the steamed bun shop, and she stays at home and doesn't want to listen to her mother's nagging, so she goes for a walk every day and goes to the suburbs, which is also good for the children.

Fang Xinning didn't want to ask Wang Jingzhi what she was doing. When he returned to the dormitory, he didn't want to eat, so he lay down and thought nonsense.

Actually, it's good now, alone, quiet, you can eat whatever you want, if you don't want to eat, and no one will persuade you to go out of your way.

He was thinking about why Wang Jingzhi, his elementary school classmates, originally knew each other a little, why did they become like this all of a sudden. When he first got married, he felt that he had made no mistake, and in just half a year, she became such a person. And her father, the whole thing is an old bastard who doesn't know anyone. Back then, how good his father Chen Baoguo was to their family, how could he bear to harm his family like this now?

When he saw the couplet that Mr. Huang gave him, he thought of Mr. Huang's concern for him, and thought of the day of the wedding, the ground of our joy.

He saw the stone with the word "Ning" on it, still sitting there quietly. But it doesn't bring any peace to the family, and the real peace will not be brought by stones, but by people.

He saw the leafy fig in the pot. Yes, there are a few fruits that are still dotted among the branches, but he has not borne fruit yet, and he has not achieved anything in the seven or eight years since he graduated, and he can't even say anything that really makes him happy.

He suddenly took out a piece of paper and quickly wrote a small poem "Singing Figs Again":

Sing figs again

Figs, Ye Po Sa,

Green and unpretentious.

The white clouds on the head are also graceful,

But she wrapped the beauty tightly.

Figs, sweet and lonely,

The sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

Don't ask for dazzling blooms,

She just wants sweet results.

Figs, figs,

Beautiful yearning,

There are more petals than in the heart. (To be continued......)
