At about three o'clock in the morning, mourners came from all directions with flashlights.

An old man in his sixties was reading the memorial text endlessly.

Wu Dayong, Wu Dahong and others carried Wu Zhongquan out of the ice coffin and put him on a stretcher made of bamboo.

The large coffin (thick wood) is called big material, the small coffin (thin wood) is called small material, and the coffin bought by the Wu family is a large material, and the weight of the entire coffin is more than 1,000 catties.

The coffin in Qianshi Town is divided into three parts, the coffin lid, the coffin bottom, and the coffin frame.

The bottom of the lightest coffin is nearly 300 catties, and the entire coffin plus a corpse can't be lifted up the mountain by eight people, and the mountain road is narrow and steep, but it is not a flat and wide road.

The sacrificial text was read for nearly an hour, and the Wu family members who knelt on the ground were miserable.

"It's almost time." Looking at the time, Chen Dajun said.

The sound of gongs and drums sounded, and the adults in the village, some carrying wreaths and some carrying firecrackers.

The funeral procession slowly moved forward, and the sound of firecrackers, gongs and drums rang out.

"The front ones go slower, and the back ones can't keep up." Ning Qiang shouted.

At this time, it was only four o'clock, the sky was not yet bright, the light was not good, the road up the mountain was not easy to walk, and the walk of carrying people was not fast.

"Set up the tables and stools, and when the wreath-bearer returns, start eating." Jiang Yunli said loudly.

Chen Yu took all the prepared roasted white, elbows, crispy pork, etc. to steam, and began to prepare all kinds of cold and hot dishes.

A lot of steamed vegetables, the big steamer makes it more delicious, and if you make one or two servings alone, the taste is a lot worse.

"The head is off, move a little to the right."

"Move a little further to the right."

"Put the grain jar down."

"The head is a little crooked, stuff some yellow paper."

"Put the corners of your clothes in the old man's hands."

"It's time, close the coffin." Mr. Taoist Zhou Shengyang said one after another.

"It closed in one fell swoop, and the last time Li lame died, it took a long time to align the coffin lid." Ning Qiang said.

"A wine cabinet like Li Cripple, he didn't drink wine before he died, so he must be unwilling." A middle-aged man said.

"Fill in the soil." Zhou Shengyang said.

The adults of the village picked up hoes and shovels and backfilled the soil.

"Teacher Zhou, you show us, when will the monument be erected?" Wu Dahong said.

"It is not advisable to erect a monument before Qiqi, and a monument will be erected on the day when the mountain is restored in a hundred days." Zhou Shengyang looked at the calendar and said after calculating.

"I'm in trouble." Wu Dahong said.

Fushan is to add soil to the grave, some are buried on the third day, and some are buried a hundred days after death.

Let the old and young of the Wu family turn their backs to the grave and hold their clothes, Zhou Shengyang grabbed a handful and scattered the grains and grains.

"It's all money, take it back and collect it." An old man in his seventies said.

The coffin was closed at five o'clock, and it was not until half past nine that everyone went down the mountain together.

At this time, the first round of seats had already been eaten, and almost all the people who had eaten and drunk were gone.

"Xiaoyu, have you eaten?" Wu Daquan asked.

"Nope." Chen Yu said.

"Come to us and eat together." Wu Daquan said.

"Okay!" Chen Yu nodded and walked over quickly.

"Xiaoyu, thank you for your hard work." Wu Daquan said.

"I'm fine anyway." Chen Yu said disappreciatively.

"Wen Xuan, when are you leaving?" Wu Boguang asked.

"Tomorrow morning." Zhou Wenxuan said.

"Let's play for a few more days and then go back." Wu Boguang said.

"Dad, Xiaorong signed up on the third day." Zhou Wenxuan said.

"That's just as well." Wu Boguang said regretfully, and after a few seconds of silence, he said again: "Daquan, Dayong, Wenxuan, they don't have a car yet, your family will give them 300,000 yuan, is there a problem?" ”

"I'll give 500,000 yuan, buy a car and start a business, I can't make much money working in the factory." Wu Daquan said that last year, the food factory divided the money, and the money distributed by his parents was in the hands of him and his younger brother.

In Qianshi Town, the daughter who marries out, the water that spills out, the property of the old man, has no daughter's share.

Of course, the responsibility of supporting the elderly falls on the son, and whether the daughter gives money or not depends on her will.

"I'll give 500,000 too." Wu Dayong said.

"Dad, eldest brother, second brother, isn't this okay?" Zhou Wenxuan hesitated.

"What's so bad? It's all a family, and it's right to help each other. Wu Boguang said.

Some people like to compare themselves with others in everything, and some people don't like to compare with others, but they are forced by some people to compare with others.

Chen Weiguo and Chen Dajun bought a car and a store for Chen Hongying, which has been known to the people of Wufeng Village.

Many people like to show off, and after returning from Jianghai Mansion, Zhao Hong often told the people in the village that her two sons, Chen Weiguo and Chen Dajun, bought cars and stores for her daughter and son-in-law......

The two elder brothers of the Chen family both spent money to buy cars and stores for their sisters, and the people of their Wu family couldn't watch it.

Many times, two families building houses next to each other, the first one will build a two-story building, and the second family will also build two floors.

People who want to fight for everything, the house is one brick taller than others, and their hearts will be much more comfortable. Some people build tombs for their ancestors, and when they see others erecting monuments, they also follow the monuments, and when they see that other people's graves are high, they will build them higher......

City dwellers live in cages made of reinforced concrete and earth, and for decades, the neighbors around them do not know each other.

It's different in the countryside, where you come and go, and you chatte in groups, all of which are a norm.

Originally, neighbor A was envious of what neighbor B did well, and when you heard it in your heart, you would use it as a reference.

Over time, the people in the village followed suit, and the whole village was like this, even if you don't make it better, you have to make the same, right?

Who wants to be left behind except those who really don't have money? Who wants to be ridiculed by others?

When other people's families hold banquets, there are whole chickens, whole ducks and whole fish, if your family does not have them, they will definitely be gossiped behind their backs.

"Xiaoyu, can you do me a favor and buy a car at Fujiyama Automobile Factory?" Wu Boguang asked expectantly.

"No problem, but it can only be based on internal employee prices." Chen Yu said.

"How much does an off-road vehicle cost 500,000 for employees?" Wu Daquan asked.

"Nine percent off, 450,000." Chen Yu said.

"Is there a current car?" Wu Dayong asked.

"I'll make a phone call first." After Chen Yu finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and made a call, and then said: "There are still ready-made off-road vehicles for 50,000, 500,000, and 5 million." ”

"Xiaoyu, we also want one at home." Wu Bocheng said.

"Okay." Chen Yu nodded.

"Wenxuan, why don't you buy it in the factory?" Wu Boguang asked.

"Dad, forget it." Zhou Wenxuan said.

"Don't hesitate, sell it outside, a car of 500,000 yuan, you can't lose a penny, with Xiaoyu's help, a car of 500,000 yuan can save 50,000 yuan." Wu Boguang said with a smile.

"That's right, brother-in-law, you have a driver's license, you have bought a car, you can drive it back." Wu Daquan said.

After eating, Chen Yu took everyone to the Fujishan Automobile Factory and bought two off-road vehicles.

"Xiaoyu, thank you for your hard work, you take this money." Wu Boguang took out a thick red envelope.

"If you look up to me, you will ask me for help, and you won't need money, and besides, I'm not short of money." Chen Yu said.

"Your Grandpa Wu's bacon, take two pieces back and eat it, you won't want it, right?" Wu Boguang said with a smile.

"How can two pieces be enough? At least a dozen dollars. Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Hehe, you can take as much as you want." Wu Boguang said disapprehantly.

Chen Yu walked straight upstairs and took a piece of bacon that was neither fat nor lean.

Where is the bacon and wind-blown meat of every household in Wufeng Village, Xiao Chen Yu has a deep memory, when he played peek-a-boo......

"You just need a piece?" Wu Boguang asked in surprise.

"Just mean it, come back when I want to eat it in the future, I'm afraid there won't be bacon to eat?" Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Huh." Wu Boguang couldn't help but smile.

The dead are gone, and the living will continue.

When Wu Zhongquan just died, the Wu family was very sad, but now that they are in peace, everyone's mood is much better.

went home for a nap, went to Wu Kui's house for dinner, Chen Yu took a hot bath, and lay comfortably on the bed.

After ten hours of sleep, I woke up at half past seven in the morning.

After breakfast, I followed my father to Fucheng, and then took a taxi to Southwest Medical University to register for tuition.
