Chapter 985: The Last Journey
Gu Pingyong's seniority is still very high in this village, and he used to be the patriarch of the Gu clan, so his identity is different from others.
When he went, most of the people in the village had to come to give him a ride, as long as all the people surnamed Gu had to come, as well as some people who were usually close, they had to be invited.
Coupled with the Yun family and the Yang family, in this way, dozens of tables have to be set up for fasting, which all cost money.
Gu Pingzhang felt a little sorry for the Wang family, but he still discussed with her, it must not be easy to get the Yun family to come up with so much money, even if there is, she estimates that there will be deductions and searches.
He didn't want to put so much thought into this matter, so the money was simply paid by their family, but he had to tell the Wang family about this matter, and the family's money was not his alone.
But as soon as he spoke, Wang knew what he was going to say, "Old man, don't worry, I have nothing to say, these children in our family have nothing to say, the dead are the greatest, even if he has more faults, the matter has already passed, we can't be as knowledgeable as him, and it is the most important thing to do a good job of his posthumous affairs, otherwise people will gossip behind their backs." ”
The relationship between Gu Pingzhang and the Wang family has always been very good, just like Lin Dezheng and the Wu family, the husband and wife have discussed everything, if it weren't for this, the two families would not have lived so smoothly, the juniors below are all learning with the elders, if the elders quarrel and fight every day, can they still live that day?
Gu Pingzhang knew that his wife was very virtuous and generous, but the Wang family directly responded to the matter before he said it, which still moved him very much.
He nodded, "Okay, let's do it, anyway, we can do whatever we can get out, it's not that it's easy for our family to make money, it's just that this thing came suddenly, no matter how many wrong things he did before, it's also my eldest brother, I'm just such a brother, if he can't do anything after his death, I really don't feel at ease in my heart." ”
"My father put my eldest brother on the tip of his heart before, although he asked me to be the patriarch of the Gu clan, but I know that in his heart, it is more important for me to be the eldest brother, and now that he is gone, I should also let him go underground to meet my father in style, otherwise my father will not be able to rest assured."
Wang smiled slightly, "Old man, you don't have to say these words anymore, you and I have been husband and wife for so many years, don't you still know my temperament?" Even if you don't mention it, I have to take the initiative to say this, you're right, we still have to live our lives, and we can't keep thinking about the past. ”
"The eldest brother has done a lot of wrong things, and I forgave him without saying anything, after all, he was the one who harmed the world like that, but it's still that sentence, he's gone, we don't need to worry about him, we can do whatever we can, anyway, it can't be too shabby, you can earn it again if you don't have money, but you want to be worthy of it."
The husband and wife decided to do this, and they lay down to sleep, this funeral is very busy, tonight they came back to sleep, the others are still busy, they have to go early in the morning to continue to help.
Wang Shi lay on the bed and sighed, in fact, she wanted to handle Gu Pingyong's funeral well, and there was another reason, that is, Tiankuo.
Although Gu Pingyong was stingy and jealous of others, which cost him his life, it was still because of the sky.
Although she would never say that Gu Pingyong died because of Tiankuo, how could this be a cause, even if no one outside was gossiping, then she had to do something, just to offset that little bit of association, and not let Tiankuo keep thinking about it in his heart in the future. Huaxiu Chinese
The next day, I got up early in the morning, Gu Pingzhang and the Wang family went over to work together, this was to keep vigil all night, Tianyuan and their juniors have been guarding, and they can only build a shed next to the mourning hall to sleep at night.
The old man in the family is gone, and the descendants are very hard in order to fulfill their filial piety.
At this time, there is no need to prepare so much for fasting, but the people who come to help, as well as the people of their own families, the most important thing is that on the day of going up the mountain, dozens of tables must be set up.
Although Gu Pingzhang had already decided to spend the money himself, this matter should still be discussed with the Yun family.
When breakfast is ready, the whole family will eat breakfast around the table, and there is a rule for funerals in the countryside, relatives cannot sit and eat, but must eat standing until they send people up the mountain, and after the funeral is completed, they can sit down to eat.
Gu Pingzhang put down the bowl and pulled the Yun family to the side with the Wang family to discuss, and Gu Zeshun also went over to listen.
He said that he would set up more than 30 tables on the day he went up the mountain, and as soon as Yun Shi heard this, he immediately said, "Second brother, you also know the situation of our family, where can you get so much money?" In this rural place, even if you come to eat, you can't give a few gift money, so if you do it, you can't let us eat bran vegetables? ”
She knew that Gu Pingzhang would definitely not sit idly by, but Gu Pingzhang hadn't told her clearly that she wouldn't let her pay for this matter, so she had to mention it on the surface.
The Yun family is very shrewd, and he will not make any mistakes in the money, Gu Pingzhang doesn't know what she thinks, he has already decided, don't worry about her, and he won't beat around the bush at this time, and said it directly.
"Sister-in-law, I also know the situation of your family, the eldest brother is gone, I, the younger brother, should also give him a good ride, this time the money for the eldest brother to do the funeral is all up to us, you don't have to pay for it, we will also take care of what to do, sister-in-law just take care of the mourning hall and not make trouble."
When Yun heard him say this, he was completely relieved, and immediately said, "Oh, second brother, thank you so much, I shouldn't have asked you for so much silver, but the family really can't come up with the money, I and your eldest brother have been married for so many years, and I can't bear to see him go undignified." ”
"But you want me to give him a beautiful future, I don't have that ability, I can't sleep for the past two days, thanks to you! Your eldest brother didn't understand it before, it's really wrong for him to go against you, but fortunately you are a sensible person, otherwise I would be really sad to death. ”
Gu Pingzhang was too lazy to listen to her words, dogs can't change their, what kind of character is Yun's character, can he still not know?
Now she is counting on him to spend money to do the future, so she is willing to speak so politely, otherwise she will have to pull out the sky.
I'm afraid that even if he does something for Gu Pingyong, the Yun family will still talk about Tiankuo after that, and then talk about it, anyway, their family is not easy to bully.
