How could Yao Liguo suddenly come up with such a sentence, I thought, even if you are drunk, you shouldn't be!

Think about Yao Liguo's age, in fact, it is about the same as my father, even if they know each other, it is normal, but my grandfather has been dead for almost 20 years, and his old man was just a farmer who made a living by farming and fishing, and was also a barefoot doctor.

The impression of my grandfather is very fond of silence, and he is not very willing to deal with people, especially not like to deal with outsiders, I feel that it is unlikely that he and a public official like Yao Liguo know each other, and the possibility of being familiar with each other is even more rare.

I always felt confused and panicked, and I really wanted to ask Yao Liguo again, but I could see that everyone was very happy, and I was embarrassed to break the atmosphere.

I wanted to wait for the banquet to end, so I found an opportunity to send Yao Liguo back to the dormitory, and then took the opportunity to ask, maybe he spit out the truth after drinking!

Who knew that before the banquet was over, Yao Liguo was already drunk, and he went directly to the table and snored.

As soon as I saw this scene, I knew that the plan just now had failed.

Maybe...... Maybe I'm mistaken! I drained half a glass of wine in one gulp, and I stopped thinking about this nonsense.

The moon is scarce, Wu Jinghan and I were walking in the courtyard of the water conservancy station, a gust of wind blew, and suddenly we felt a coolness on our faces, and the two of us couldn't help but snuggle together.

"Lu Dong, let's go for a walk on the edge of the Yellow River!"

"Okay!"

"I remember the first time you took me to the river for a walk, and when I came back, I became your girlfriend!"

After speaking, Wu Jinghan smiled at me, blushing like a red Fuji apple.

"That's fine! This can also be regarded as a revisit to the old place, and the Yellow River is a place where we are in love. Let's go! ”

"Hate ......"

The two of them laughed and walked out of the gate of the water conservancy station.

Early the next morning, I woke up Han Jianli, and Yao Liguo, Yu Jin, and Tian Zhen also followed him to the district funeral home.

With the certificate issued by Liu Liwei's subordinates, the body was successfully obtained, and Liu Xili called a friend of the deputy director of the funeral home, directly added a plug, and came to the No. 3 crematorium.

In just two months, I can't remember how many times I stepped into the funeral home, and although I no longer feel scared, I feel weird, and I always feel that something is going to happen.

Because of the special situation, I didn't "invite" my father out of the body bag, but bought Wu Jinghan a shroud, spread it on it seriously, and then gently pushed it into the crematorium.

Tears poured out of my eyes and my hands shook as if they were bursting a bank.

Covered with the cover, several people were urged by the crematorial workers in the No. 3 crematorium to retreat five or six meters, until they retreated to the outside of the railing, where the ground was written "cremation begins, do not approach" eight big white characters. When the cremator saw us exit, he closed the electric switch, and with the sound of a machine "humming", the crematorium began to operate.

This is my father's last journey in the world, and from now on, there will be no other person in the world.

After about five or six minutes of burning, suddenly there was a sound similar to a human cry from the crematorium, the sound was fluttering and faint, but it was very real, it came from the crematorium at work.

I've been through this scene!

I remember that when I accompanied Wang Shengjia to cremate the body of his father Lao Wang, I also heard such a sound coming from the stove, which shows that my father had some kind of similar experience with them, which led to some kind of change in his body.

The sound of "woo woo" came from the crematorium, which made me feel uncomfortable, so I quickly covered my ears and diverted my attention, forcing myself not to listen or think.

It took half an hour for the sound in the crematorium to disappear, and when I lowered my hands, I realized that I was sweating.

"Lu Dong, it's time to ......"

Han Jianjian reminded me softly, so that I completely came out of my trance.

I was always afraid that something would happen, but there was no danger, my father's ashes were put into the box, I respectfully held them with both hands and put them in the car, Liu Xili also rushed over with a few people, and everyone was dignified.

Daddy's home! How I wish I could have said this to you more than a decade ago.

At this moment, I have to sigh, it is really human fate, God is destined, since we took this one-way train called "life", everything is involuntarily.

Maybe someone sits at one stop, or someone sits at two stops, and even if they sit at the end, don't they have to get off?

In this car, who you meet, who meets you, to put it nicely, is fate, in fact, fate.

I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time, to be precise, since my mother died, for the village that I have lived for more than ten or twenty years, in fact, I have no sense of home, just like a sentence in an ancient poem - where is the sunset township, and the Yanbo River makes people sad.

I'm so sad!

The village has changed a lot over the years.

I remember when I was a child, most of the neighborhoods lived in adobe houses, and on summer evenings, every family would set up a small table to eat outside, listening to the crickets and unknown insects in the darkness in the distance, and the sound of family members clicking their mouths as they ate.

It's a real treat.

Over the past few years, brick houses have been erected, and now the only remaining adobe houses in the village are almost uninhabited, including the house where my family and my grandparents lived.

Before I got home, I saw dozens of people from a distance to welcome him, the second uncle, the second judge, and several uncles and brothers of the family were wearing plain clothes with serious faces.

In the middle are several old men holding musical instruments, some holding suona in their hands, some holding sheng, and two holding gongs and unknown musical instruments.

I know that according to local custom, this is to play mourning music to see off the deceased for the last time.

After getting out of the car, I knelt down in front of my second uncle with a thud.

"Second uncle, I'...... I brought my dad back! ”

The second uncle's face turned pale, and he helped me up tremblingly: "Okay! All right! Big nephew, ...... Put your dad away. ”

Two neighbors helped push open the lid of the coffin, and my cousin helped me to carefully put the urn into the coffin.

Several strong men lifted the coffin, and at the same time, an old man in the village who helped preside over the funeral put a sackcloth on his body, and buckled a hat made of hemp rope, and a meatball-like "gall" on each side, commonly known as "big ear gall" in the local area.

I smelled a smell of fried fritters, and I guess this "equipment" was worn by many people, but it was never washed. Pi Phi Reading.com

Seeing that I was dressed, the old man in charge of Zhang Luobai's affairs waved his hand, and several old men who played funeral music began to play music on the side, and the second uncle and another cousin of the family helped me, followed behind the coffin, and slowly walked towards the Liu family cemetery.

This way is very slow, I didn't go for a while, and the old man had to support me and kowtow three times, and I won't repeat the process.

When we came to the cemetery, my mother's grave had been dug up, and in the order of "male left, female right", there was a rectangular grave on the left side of the ground, and several young neighbors were standing watching us with shovels and eyes in their mouths.

The coffin containing my father's urn was placed next to the grave, and the old man helped me to the edge of the grave, pointed to the grave and asked me "is it right".

I hurriedly shouted "yes".

The old man of Bai Shi immediately shouted: "When the auspicious time comes, the ground is broken, and 25,000 yuan will be given away, and I will become an official in the western sky, and it will not be hard to be a man in the next life......

Just now, a few strong men carrying the coffin lifted the coffin again, and then carefully sent it into the pit, and the old man asked my cousin to grab a handful of soil and sprinkle it on the coffin, and then several uncles of the family also grabbed a handful of soil and threw it over.

The old man shouted in a hoarse voice: "Settle in the ground!" ”

After a shout, the few people carrying shovels just now hurriedly came over and buried the soil in the pit.

"One does not bury rough and stubborn stones, and the other does not bury the head of the rapids. Three do not bury the source of the ditch desperate, and four do not bury the lonely mountain. Five do not bury the gods in front of the temple, and six do not bury the left and right prisoners. Seven do not bury the hill to stir up chaos, eight do not bury feng shui sorrow. Nine do not bury the low and small, and ten do not bury the dragon and tiger pointed head. ”

The old man of Bai Shi watched a few people bury the soil, and muttered smoothly for a year, I guess it was to please a good fortune.

When the grave was almost erected, the old man waved his hand at a few of us: "Kneel in front of the tomb of the filial son, and enter the fight for righteousness." Fu Ding added blessing and longevity, and scattered valleys to produce children and grandchildren. Filial sons and grandchildren, let's cry! ”

At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew in the originally clear sky, and then the sky became overcast, and several thunderous sounds similar to cow barking were heard in the southwest sky.

Everything changed too suddenly.

The crowd of helpers and onlookers began to shout.

A few old men behind me began to whisper.

"Do you remember? When Liu Maotang was buried that year, it was the same, the sky suddenly became overcast, and there was a dragon cry in the black clouds! ”

"Yes! I've heard people say before that their Liu family will be like this when they are buried, and this is the god of Nantianmen to see them off! ”

"Huh?"

"People have been barefoot doctors for generations, this is a good reward!"

"Not really! Who in our village hasn't touched the light of his house! ”

Hearing this, I felt a little bit in my heart.

Dad and grandpa are barefoot doctors, it is said that the medical skills are not bad, especially grandpa, not only can give people a doctor, but also can see a pig and a dog, and he is also a veterinarian.

Dad got the true inheritance of his grandfather, especially the kung fu of taking the pulse, it is said that even many old Chinese medicine doctors only give a thumbs up.

The grave was erected, and the black clouds in the sky dissipated, and everything was exactly as a few neighbors said.

It was tossed until noon, and everyone returned to the village.

When it came to rural customs, Wu Jinghan didn't come, so I prepared 50,000 yuan in cash in advance and handed it to Han Jianjian, asking him to give it to my second uncle.

When I returned to the village, I was moved by the scene I saw.

The courtyard of the second uncle's house is very large, and at this time there are more than a dozen large round tables, and several neighbors are busy taking chopsticks and seats from their respective homes.

"Eating and mourning" is also one of the funeral customs in China, at least in most parts of the north, after the funeral, the family of the deceased will set up a banquet to entertain the neighbors and relatives who are mourning.

Of course, whether it is relatives or neighbors, they will follow a "share of money".

I walked up to Han Jianli and Liu Liwei.

"Viagra, establish, what's going on?"

Liu Liwei patted me lightly: "Brother, I will pay for the wine and food, and Brother Jianjian entrusted the neighbors in the village to go to the town to buy ten cigarettes and buy some tribute, and I also have a general understanding of the local funeral customs, so I don't have to go to the grave in the evening!" Other than that...... In addition, the fake building and fake car construction brothers have been set, and it is estimated that it will be delivered to the ...... at about three o'clock in the afternoon."

At this time, Yao Liguo walked over and said softly: "Brother! My brother didn't prepare anything, just now I asked Yu Jin to go to the town to buy a few clothes for your father, and send them over at the grave in the evening! ”

I was so moved that tears flowed down my face.

People have lived a lifetime, grass and trees have been autumn, in this life and this life, I Liu Ludong met these brothers, it is worth it!

My father and mother are finally buried together, maybe this is the only thing that makes me feel happy in the midst of thousands of sorrows!

Sitting on the small horse in the corner, I watched the old and young neighbors sit around, munching on vegetables and drinking wine, although they also communicated with each other, but the voices were not loud, and no one shouted.

My friends and a few cousins were busy running back and forth, and I felt incredibly calm in my inner world at this moment.

After eating, it was about two o'clock, and the second uncle called me to the side.

"Child, I am finally looking forward to your father's return, and I want to go to the grave of your grandparents by the way."

I nodded, "That's good!" Let's go together! ”

"In my generation, I am the oldest, and you are also the eldest grandson, so we have to discuss this matter!"

"yes!" I nodded hurriedly, "Second uncle, I don't know much about many customs in the village, especially funeral customs, so you can watch it!" If you're short of money, let me know...... I'll do whatever I want! ”

The second uncle patted me on the shoulder and said softly: "There are some things that are not suitable for the neighbors to help - after your grandparents died, the things in the house were basically not cleaned up, although it was not worth much!" But it's also a relic of the old man, let's go and clean it up, and then a car will be pulled to the cemetery and burned! ”

The small courtyard of the grandfather's house is behind the second uncle's house, the door of the house has been locked for more than ten years, and the house is fine, but the courtyard wall has long collapsed.

The second uncle took out the key from his waist and opened the door, and suddenly a musty smell of dust came to my nose, and I coughed again and again.

"Every year you and I come to clean it, alas! If no one lives, it will lose popularity, and no matter how much you clean it, you can't clean it! ”

Grandpa's house is very simple, basically the furniture of the eighties and nineties of the last century, the second uncle walked to the long table, glanced at the rusty little lock on the drawer, and said with a wry smile: "After your grandfather died, the key to this trivial thing was not found, and I didn't want to destroy the objects left by the old man at that time, it seems that it will not work if I don't destroy it today!" ”
