Chapter VII Funeral Scene

It was indeed a woman, who was more than 1.7 meters tall and stood at the door with an expressionless face.

When I saw her, she saw me too, with a light smile on her otherwise expressionless face.

"Hello, it's Cousin Xuanning."

I smiled and said hello to her, and the woman frowned slightly in surprise.

"Do you recognize me? I thought we had never met, and you didn't even know there was a cousin like me. ”

Seeing that I handed over her name as soon as possible, Ren Xuanning's smile became a little bigger, and I was relieved to see that I didn't admit the wrong person, here I have to thank that Master Liu, if he hadn't told me the family members of the second grandfather's family, I might just stand stupidly and say hello now.

Knowing the approximate age and gender of the second grandfather's family, it is not difficult to guess that the person in front of me is my cousin, that is, the daughter of the second grandfather's eldest son.

Of course, I can't answer that I guessed it myself based on what someone else told me.

I said without changing my face: "I heard my family mention you before, saying that Cousin Xuanning is a beautiful woman and has never had time to see her, but today I feel that what they said is really right." ”

After listening to my compliment, Ren Xuanning couldn't help but laugh out loud, the original cold temperament added a lot of vitality and vitality when she laughed like this, and there was a different beauty.

As if feeling that this was inappropriate, Ren Xuanning hurriedly covered her mouth, and her expression returned to calm.

After looking around to make sure no one noticed, he glanced at me with some disgust and said, "I didn't expect that Cousin Ren Sheng seemed to be a talent, and he was so flamboyant at a young age, and he didn't harm the little girl at school, right?" ”

I was caught off guard and asked such a question again.,I don't understand why these girls always think I'm not studying well and thinking about pickling girls all day long.,The question is whether I've always been a good student.。。。

Seeing that I didn't answer with a dry smile, Ren Xuanning didn't ask, and said, "Okay, let's go in, let's go meet my father and them first, and the meal will be started in a while." ”

"Get me the bag, you look like you're going on a tour with a bag, so it's not good to go in this way." Saying that, Cousin Xuanning took the initiative to take off the backpack I was carrying, and Cousin Xuanning's careful behavior made me feel like a relative, because she had already begun to think about me.

I nodded, and said, "Cousin Xuanning, I want to trouble you to introduce me to the family, I haven't met each other for fear of misidentifying people." ”

Ren Xuanning agreed: "I'll introduce you one by one in a while, and you just need to call someone." ”

Seeing that Cousin Xuanning agreed, I was also relieved, it was better than guessing after I saw someone, and it would be embarrassing to admit my mistake when the time came.

Entering the gate, I intuitively saw how big the yard of the second grandfather was, not to mention his big villa, just this yard I estimated from left to right, about the size of a basketball court and a half, such an area is super large even in the countryside, what I saw in the distance before was only the width of this yard, I thought it was an ordinary compound.

The whole courtyard is rectangular, the gate is in the lower left corner of the rectangle, the first thing I saw when I went in was two makeshift greenhouses, under which there were round tables, and at a cursory glance there were about thirty tables, because it was easy to count four tables per row.

In front of the greenhouse is a stage, which seems to have been set up temporarily, and there are people singing on the stage, and men, women and children are sitting below and watching with relish.

The house is in the middle, the door is open, and the door is facing the middle of the two sheds, and you can see the wreath placed outside the door, and the white silk hanging on the door.

Almost all the people in the courtyard were watching the play on the other side of the stage, and no one paid attention to us, I followed Cousin Xuanning to the door of the villa, looking inside, a spiritual platform in the center of the door was impressive, and there was a photo of an old man on the spiritual platform, with sparse hair and a round face, although the corners of the eyes were full of wrinkles and some old age spots on the face, it looked very rich, looking like an ordinary old man, with a bright smile on his face.

Because I have never seen the second grandfather, I looked at it for a while, looked away from the statue, a soft cushion was placed in front of the altar, and next to the altar there was a person kneeling in my direction, with his head down and a filial piety belt to see men and women clearly, the hall was very wide, it was originally a place to place furniture but both sides were emptied, only some chairs were placed, and there were two people sitting on the chairs, one was sitting there in a daze, and the other was looking at the mobile phone with his head down.

I first walked to the second grandfather's spiritual platform, according to the rules, the first time I entered the door, I had to kneel in front of the old man's spirit, because the deceased was the greatest, and I had to "inform" him as soon as I saw that you were here.

My father had specially instructed me to do this, and there were many rules in the funeral, and my father told me all the basic things, so that I wouldn't be mistaken.

Walking to the front of the altar, the person who was originally kneeling there with his head bowed felt that someone was coming, and subconsciously raised his head to look, and I saw clearly that it was a girl kneeling here.

The girl's big red eyes looked at me, and lowered her head again, a hurried glance was enough for me to see the girl's appearance, the girl was very beautiful, with a fair face, a small nose, a slightly upturned cherry mouth, and the most important thing for me was the big and smart eyes, although the eyes were red with tears, they were still clear and clear, and they looked clean and comfortable.

After a quick glance, I silently knelt in front of the altar and bowed three times, and when I bowed, the girl next to me also bent down and kowtowed to me.

"Ruoyi, this is your cousin Ren Sheng."

After worshipping, she got up, and Xuan Ning on the side suddenly said to the girl.

Then he introduced to me: "This is the daughter of my uncle's family, your cousin Ren Ruoyi." ”

Ren Ruoyi looked at me curiously, and said a little timidly: "Hello cousin." ”

I smiled, "Hello cousin. ”

A little embarrassed, Ren Ruoyi looked younger than me at her age, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she saw an unfamiliar face like me.

Ren Xuanning didn't care about it on the side, and pulled me to the side of the person on the chair.

"Dad, my cousin is here." Ren Xuanning couldn't bear to disturb her father, who was immersed in grief, but still whispered.

The two men sitting in the chair both raised their heads and looked at me, the one in front should be Ren Xuanning's father, because she was standing in the front row and saying to the man just now.

The man stood up and looked me up and down, and a smile barely appeared on his originally sad face: "Xiaosheng, you've grown so big, you don't recognize me, right?" ”

"Uncle Guo is good." I smiled dryly and said hello politely, I really didn't know how to answer this sentence, because I really didn't have the slightest impression.

"How can I remember, he was only more than a year old when I saw him, and more than ten years have passed, and my family Ruoyi has grown so big from her mother's belly." The middle-aged man in the back spoke.

"Hello Uncle Bing." I hurriedly said hello to the man behind me.

He has already explained to himself that he is Ren Ruoyi's father, so it seems that Ren Xuanning's father and Ren Ruoyi's father do look very similar, but Ren Ruoyi's father looks younger.

He also nodded at me, patted me on the shoulder and back and said, "The little nephew is good-looking, worthy of being Ren Fusheng's son, and he has inherited your father's advantages in appearance." ”

Ren Fusheng is my father's name, and it always feels strange to hear him compliment me on how much I look like my father.

I explained to them why I was the only one who came, and they didn't care.

Ren Zhiguo said: "Your father told me all this, the old father left suddenly, and there is no way to do it." ”

As he spoke, his eyes turned red again, and Uncle Zhibing beside him patted him on the shoulder, sighed and said, "Okay, okay, it's about to be dinner, Xuan Ning, you take Xiaosheng upstairs to see his room, and by the way, introduce him to his aunts." ”

Ren Xuan replied and led me upstairs from the stairs next door.
