Chapter IV: Funeral Report
"How? Handsome or not? ”
"Handsome!" I applaud from the bottom of my heart.
"Of course, but you're also quite handsome, but your face is too white!"
Cao Puxia said proudly, but the latter sentence instantly embarrassed me, what do you mean that my face is too white?
Scolding me for being a little white face, I won't turn around and scold, right?
"Get in the car." Cao Puxia patted the co-pilot in a chic manner.
When I fastened my seatbelt, the car crashed out with a thud, and then it was all the way to the road.
It wasn't until I was almost at my destination that I realized that I had been deceived!
It turned out that in the past year, Cao Puxia's parents have been forcing her to get married, but she has no choice, she lied that she already has a boyfriend, and as for getting married, she will talk about it everywhere first.
And I, of course, became her shield, and I want to see "parents" tonight. ”
She also said proudly, saying that if she hadn't said that she had talked to someone, her father might not have sold her a car.
All this happened yesterday and the day before yesterday, and I, as a half-client, didn't know it.
"Puxia, there's no need for this, right?" Looking at the low-key, but actually rich gathering place of the Jiangbei Hotel in front of me, I was a little depressed.
She actually said, let me cheer up and pretend to be temperamental. I want to say, with my temperament, do I still need to dress?
"Call sister! No, it's just the name. ”
"Don't make a mistake, if my father finds out, you won't expect me to bring you breakfast!"
Cao Puxia snorted, grabbed my arm and entered the revolving door.
I felt helpless for a while, so I could only raise my feet and follow up.
To be honest, this is the first time I've been to this kind of place. There are not many guests coming and going, but you can see that each one is either rich or expensive!
Cao Puxia's parents booked a box called Hua Hao Full Moon, and after entering, they found that her parents had arrived.
"Hello uncle and aunt." I asked out loud, holding back my embarrassment.
"Xiao Hao, sit down, sit down." Cao Puxia's mother smiled and wanted to pull the stool, how dare I let the elders do it, so I quickly pulled it away and sat down.
Cao Puxia's father nodded, not smiling, with the air of a superior person.
I trembled in my heart, it seems that this son-in-law of the Cao family is not easy to be, and I don't know which unlucky ghost he will be in the future, and he has to look like that to Cao's father every day.
Cao Puxia's mother smiled and eased the atmosphere, and then asked the waiter to serve the food. But I'm on pins and needles, and I'm even careful about eating.
There's no way, if it weren't for Cao Puxia, I would have eaten and drunk a lot, no matter what your image is.
After that, Cao Puxia's mother asked me a few words, and when she heard that I was an orphan, Cao's father's eyes were obviously stunned, but he didn't say much.
But I obviously felt the difference, before he would look at me a few times, intentionally or unintentionally, but now, he just eats without squinting.
The dinner ended hastily in such an awkward atmosphere. When I left, Cao's father frowned slightly when he heard that Cao Puxia was going to send me, and said to pay attention to safety, so he left by car with Cao Puxia's mother.
On the way back to the funeral home, Cao Puxia's mood was obviously not high, but I didn't ask more.
She said, "Don't mind, his father is a good man, but sometimes he is too serious."
I was stunned for a moment, thinking to myself, what do I have to suggest, and it's really not a son-in-law to see my father-in-law.
"Hmm!" I answered, sort of a response.
Cao Puxia smiled slyly, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Yes, sister didn't see the wrong person!" ”
Looking at the taillights of the body speeding away, I was embarrassed in place. But I can't figure it out even more in my heart, so rich and still go to work in such a place?
Could it be ...... She's a pervert too?
After Cao Puxia left, I went back to the dormitory. After seeing that the time was already eleven o'clock, I wanted to wash up and sleep, but I don't know if my brain cramped or what, I stared at the walkie-talkie and waited quietly.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was not until the early hours of the morning, when the walkie-talkie did not make a sound as it had been two nights, that I let out a long breath and went to bed.
But I didn't sleep very well, and I woke up several times during the night. The next day, it wasn't until the sun shone in through the window that I opened my eyes in a daze.
"By the way, the funeral home didn't contact Xiaoling's parents yesterday, I don't know if there is a result today."
Thinking of this, I quickly got up and washed up and rushed to the funeral department.
Although it is a department, there are only three or four employees, and the specific affairs are to contact family members, check death certificates, arrange funeral affairs, and so on.
Cao Puxia is the director of the funeral department, at first there were many old people who were not convinced, thinking that a newcomer could directly appoint the intern director, but later the people's strength proved that she was not the director by relationship.
Not to mention, after she became the director, the efficiency of our funeral home is much better than before. Some of those who handle the aftermath even take the initiative to contact us, which rarely happened in the past.
After finding Cao Puxia and questioning her, I got a piece of news that made me extremely angry.
She said that Xiao Ling's body has been stopped for three days, and she must go out for a funeral today, that is, cremation.
I know it's the rule, and it's the custom on our side. But what I'm angry about is not this, it's that Xiaoling's parents don't answer the phone.
At first, it was able to get through, but then it was directly shut down. I don't understand what they're doing.
Could it be that something happened to their daughter, and they couldn't even come to see her off for a ride? Is this still the biological parents?
After getting the news, I went directly to Lin Qingshan and asked him to put Xiao Ling in the freezer for the time being, and as for the cost of putting the freezer, it was deducted from my salary.
And I, I plan to go to Xiaoling's parents in person.
I feel that Xiao Ling's body is unusually heavy, and people can't move it easily, but they don't want to enter reincarnation. As for why, I think it's that Xiaoling's parents don't want to come to see their daughter off.
It is said that people have souls, and after death, the soul will float out of the body and go to the cycle of yin and yang.
I've never seen it, but I don't think it's much worse. When this situation occurs in the little spirit in front of him, it is very likely that the soul is unwilling to leave the body.
Perhaps, when she sees her parents, once her wish is fulfilled, she will go safely!
For my first love, that's all I can do now!
At noon, after getting specific information about Xiaoling from Cao Puxia, I took a car to Qingshu County.
And Xiaoling's home is in a place called Chenjiagou in Qingshu County.
After several turns, I arrived at Chenjiagou in the evening.
To be honest, this place is really remote, but the scenery is quite beautiful.
A kind old man showed me the way, and I knew exactly the specific location of Xiaoling's house.
Looking at the small courtyard of the farmhouse in front of me, I pondered for a moment and walked in.
"Hey, who are you?"
As soon as I entered the courtyard, a voice sounded behind me.
When I turned to look, I saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl looking at me curiously, with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.
"Xiaoyu, don't mess around." A woman came out of the kitchen and whispered.
"Light rain?" I was stunned, thinking that Xiao Ling often said that he had a younger sister, it seems that this girl is, no wonder the eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Xiao Ling.
Seeing the woman with the apron looking at me with a puzzled expression, I quickly said, "Auntie, I am Xiaoling's friend. ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xiaoyu, who was beside me, suddenly glared angrily when she heard my words.
For a moment, I was stunned in place, this ......
Did I say the wrong thing?
"Light rain!" The woman scolded softly, and her face was full of surprise.
For a moment, I was even more confused. But I didn't understand what I had said wrong.
"Kid, are you?"
"Auntie, my name is Lin Hao, and I am Xiaoling's friend." Seeing Xiaoling's mother asking, I hurriedly replied.
I wanted to explain the meaning directly, but when the words came to my mouth, I swallowed them back.
Looking at this situation, Xiaoling's family didn't know that Xiaoling had an accident, and I reported the funeral when I came to the door, and they probably couldn't accept it. After thinking about it, I decided to tell them tactfully later.
Xiaoling's mother was stunned, obviously not knowing me, but she still smiled and asked Xiaoyu to lead me into the house.
Seeing this scene, my anger at the funeral home couldn't help but lessen a little, perhaps, I really misunderstood them.
After all, this is a mountainous area, and the transportation is difficult. Signals also come and go, and they can't get a call, but they can understand it.
Actually, what I don't know is that I have subconsciously forcibly explained that the signal is not working, isn't it temporarily unreachable? How can it be shut down?
It's no wonder that the appearance of Xiaoling's mother, at first glance, is not the kind of wicked person who doesn't care whether her daughter lives or dies, so how can I not forcibly defend herself?
