Chapter 57, Jiang Xuan's determination
"Up!" Jiang's father shouted here, Jiang Yuanyuan couldn't help but stretch her neck to look, they surrounded the coffin with a rope, tied a big knot, and the four of them carried the coffin together and slowly walked out of it.
"Click!" A slight sound seemed to indicate something, and all the hearts of all the people chuckled fiercely.
"Hurry up!" The village chief was the most nervous, and hurriedly asked a few people to move faster, and the person who carried the coffin was also anxious, for fear of wearing the bottom, so he hurriedly carried it up.
"Whew!" The person who carried the coffin put the coffin gently, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, if the corpse fell out in the middle of carrying the coffin, this is extremely ominous, this can be said to be the anger of the ancestors, it is to go unlucky.
"Be careful, everyone." The village chief shouted nervously, he was in a hurry, and in such a moment, two bubbles appeared at the corners of his mouth, "But you must not call it out." ”
Because of the sound that came out when the first coffin was lifted out just now, everyone was a little worried, and when carrying the second pair, they were all careful and careful, and the second pair did not have an accident, and passed peacefully.
The two coffins have been unearthed, and only Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang's are left, but on both sides, no news has come out.
After waiting for a while, there was finally a sound here, and the sound of the shovel slashing on the wooden board relieved everyone's hearts, and just when everyone thought that the two coffins were about to be unearthed, a man suddenly shouted that something was wrong.
"What the hell is going on?" Li Zheng walked over to take a look, and then, Li Zheng couldn't help but gasp.
"This, this, this!" Li Zheng said nervously, "What is going to be done?" ”
"Village Chief, Li Zheng, it's the same here." A voice from a pit next to him also came, "What should I do?" ”
Jiang Yuanyuan's heart was itching, and she especially wanted to know what she saw, the village chief helped the oldest elder in the village to look over, what they said, and then, the village chief finally let them get up.
"Xuanzi, Yuanyuan, you all come and have a look." The village chief waved his hand, Jiang Xuan slowly stood up, Second Uncle Jiang had been here, his face was a little ugly, his eyes were red, after Jiang Yuanyuan stood up, he and Jiang Qian helped the second aunt over, they looked at it, and they all gasped.
The coffin came out, but it was broken pieces, a pile of messy wood blackened, directly revealing the white bones inside, where is this coffin, it is completely a pile of broken wood and white bones buried under the wood.
The old man looked at a piece of wood that he had picked up from below, it was black and moldy, and there were many holes in it that insects had crawled through.
"Let's take out Daddy's body first." Second Uncle Jiang said, "I'll talk about these things later, let's put the old man's body and bury it first." ”
"Okay, I don't have a say in the affairs of your Jiang family, but everyone is watching this matter, and we all know what is going on." The village chief nodded heavily, if there was no such thing, they might still be able to regard the sound at the bottom of the coffin just now as an accident, but the fact is that in front of them, this coffin is absolutely impossible to be naturally corrupted and underground, which is obviously the hollow coffin has been corroded by the land.
A few Chinese characters glanced at each other, and they all saw deep worry and fear from the bottom of each other's eyes, the burial of deceased relatives, of course, everyone hopes that their relatives can live in peace of mind underground, find a feng shui treasure, and let the relatives underground bless themselves, but if this coffin is not good, it is equivalent to no house underground, and the body is eaten by insects and snakes, how to rest in peace, how to bless their children and grandchildren.
"Second uncle, the bones of these two can only be picked up by you." Li Zheng said with his hands behind his back, "Jiang Xuan, you all kneel." ”
Jiang Xuan fluttered and knelt down, Jiang Yuanyuan knelt down silently, she didn't make a mistake.
The corpse was cleaned up little by little by the second uncle, and was first placed in the coffin, and the second aunt ran home to get the white silk to change it on the body of the corpse, and the clothes of the two old people in the family had already been burned, and there were no clothes to accompany the burial, so these white cloths could only be placed to avoid the cold of the corpse.
As the sun passed little by little, the sun began to slowly tilt downward, and finally the corpses of Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang were cleaned up, and it was time to clean up Jiang's father and mother again.
Jiang's father and Jiang's mother's coffin will be buried in it for a long time, naturally there will be no coffin corrosion, but the coffin nails are used, so it is a little difficult to open the museum, when the coffin has just opened a gap, the smell of the corpse decay flows out, it smells very bad, because it was covered in the coffin before, so there is only a little, not much, after the coffin is opened, the smell suddenly flows out, and it spreads everywhere, and the smell is disgusting.
Everyone retreated a little, but a few Chinese characters could only endure the discomfort to open all the coffins.
The bodies of Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were moved and placed by Jiang Xuan and the second uncle together, they first wrapped all the bodies of Jiang with a white cloth, carefully so as not to contaminate the corpse, and then the two of them used wooden boards to move Jiang's father and Jiang's mother to another coffin, Jiang Yuanyuan couldn't look up, but she couldn't help but raise her head to take a look, and just saw the second uncle holding a white, small thing, and gently put it into Jiang's mother's coffin.
Tears suddenly stopped.
But she didn't cry, she boiled her eyes, lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly.
When the coffin was nailed, Jiang Yuanyuan felt that her heart had been twitching again, followed by the sound of the puff, facing her father and mother again, and once again watching her father and mother being sealed in the coffin, saying that it was not uncomfortable, it was fake.
"Up!" With the voice of the old man, the strong men began to send the coffin to the dug pit, the coffin slowly sank, and C completely disappeared in front of Jiang Yuanyuan's eyes, and then came out, only those who had just gone down.
When the first handful of loess was sprinkled, Jiang Yuanyuan trembled violently, starting from the top of her head to the soles of her feet, numbing inch by inch.
The high mound of graves was erected, and they put the previous stone tablet in front of them, and a dozen yellow coins were placed on the top of the tomb, and a stone that the old man had put on it with his own hands was pressed, and this was the end.
"Let's go back and wash up, and come over for dinner later!" Jiang Yuanyuan said in a hoarse voice, "I'm glad to be everyone today." ”
"Nothing! Nothing! Everyone waved their hands, they all had a good relationship with the Jiang family before, otherwise they wouldn't have called their family to help with things, and they were also paid for doing this, so naturally they wouldn't say that they were tired, and when they heard Jiang Yuanyuan say this, they all packed up their things and prepared to go home to take a shower and eat.
People left one after another, Jiang Xuan lit the fire and silently burned the paper money, Jiang Yuanyuan walked over, knelt gently in front of Jiang's father's grave, and slowly burned the paper money.
No one spoke, but there was a slight sob, and the second aunt couldn't help crying.
Time will fade a lot, but when I think about it occasionally, I still feel sad about it.
"Brother, let's go back first." The paper money was burned, Jiang Yuanyuan looked at Jiang Xuan, who was still kneeling and didn't speak, Jiang Xuan nodded gently, Jiang Yuanyuan was silent for a moment, and left.
The feast in the evening was a flowing water feast, and there were as many people in the village as there were to cook as many tables, so they couldn't delay it now, and they had to go home and cook quickly.
Jiang Xuan looked at the tombstone silently, looking at Jiang's mother for a while, and Jiang's father for a while, he actually didn't think about anything, he just wanted to see more of it, but the sadness flowing in his heart couldn't be erased.
"Squeak!"
The sound of dead branches and leaves being trampled on made Jiang Xuan come back to his senses a little, he knew who the person behind him was, he was silent, didn't say anything, felt this figure getting closer and closer, slowly walked over, and knelt beside him.
"When did you know I was coming?"
Chen Mofan asked softly.
"I don't know, it's just a feeling, you should be next to me, you are next to me, I will feel very relieved." Jiang Xuan smiled softly.
"I ran out without any health, don't you want to live?"
"Without you, it doesn't mean much to live." Chen Mofan smiled, and then there was a silence.
"Let's go." Jiang Xuan said softly, "I want to say something, you go over and wait for me first." ”
Chen Mofan glanced at Jiang Xuan, he nodded, stood up and walked out, his voice became farther and farther away, Jiang Xuan waited for a while, and suddenly smiled.
"Daddy! Mother! Jiang Xuan said softly, "My son is not filial, so I can't continue the incense for you." ”
"I really love Chen Mofan, I have decided that I want to be with him again for the rest of my life, and we will not be separated."
"You'll bless us, I know."
Jiang Xuan smiled, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and smiled brightly.
Jiang Xuan walked towards the figure in the distance, and after walking over, Jiang Xuan naturally took Chen Mofan's hand, but Chen Mofan trembled in surprise, and the two went back to the village hand in hand, Jiang Xuan asked Chen Mofan to go back to rest, and he went home by himself and took a bath and began to help Jiang Yuanyuan cook.
In the evening, most of the people in the village came to eat, the dishes and chopsticks were brought by themselves, they just kept stir-frying and then bumped into the plate, Jiang Xuan and Jiang Yuanyuan had been washing the dishes at the end of the day, the second aunt stir-frying, Jiang Qian and Sun Hui served the dishes, the second uncle was helping to pick up the guests, and they were busy until it was completely dark.
The exhausted few people cleaned up the table outside and the messy yard, Jiang Yuanyuan returned to the kitchen with the plates, looking at the stacked plates, feeling uncomfortable.
The second aunt once also managed such a flowing water mat, but she didn't handle it alone, but several people made it together, so alone, her arms kept shaking, Jiang Yuanyuan saw it, so she asked the second aunt and the second uncle to go back to rest first, and a few of them packed up the rest of the things here.
