Chapter 42: The Funeral
In the afternoon, I accompanied Zhou Tongtong and went to her father's cemetery, and when I got here, I knew how easy the word "pit" was. The cheapest cemetery costs 50,000 yuan, and the more expensive ones cost several million, and there is no upper limit.
The scenery is beautiful, surrounded by greenery, small bridges and flowing water, poetic and picturesque, everything you can think of is used.
The salesman is even more running before and after, professional formal wear, black silk heels, from feng shui to transportation, from land value to financial management. It's the truth, and the sky is falling.
What is the five elements of yin and yang, what is the right path in the world, what is the six realms of reincarnation, and what is the cycle of cause and effect, I have learned all of them this afternoon.
In the end, the salesman said that these things had to be believed, she wore red panties all the year round, and she showed off the gossip on them, and she almost didn't pull out the red panties she was wearing to show us.
I had a headache for a long time, and the service of the sales department was not so enthusiastic. If Dolgon had known, his underground palace and his sister's red panties would have been a design concept, and he would probably be able to cheat the corpse.
In the end, Zhou Tongtong chose a cemetery of one million to give her lovely daddy.
This cemetery is amazing, and there is after-sales service. Morning and evening cleaning, Buddha hall tablet incense every day. On festivals and birthdays, there are flower baskets, wine and meat and various fruit tributes, and one-to-one service personnel are designated to burn paper and bow three times. If you need to kowtow and cry graves, you will be counted separately according to the specific requirements.
If you are a Christian, there are daily Bible prayers, and during Western festivals, there are senior pastors invited from the church to preside over the ceremony, and the cemetery is completely decorated in Western style.
There is also a form with additional charges, which has a lot of services, including dancing and karaoke singing in front of the grave.
If the family has arrangements for tomb sweeping activities, they will also send a car to pick them up in advance. The long distance includes board and lodging, there is a special tomb sweeping guest house, and the environment and service have reached the three-star standard. Dolgon didn't have that kind of treatment, and he didn't even have a service to build such a good tomb.
I couldn't take it anymore, so I interrupted the salesman and asked, "Is there any Evil Eye Beast gatekeeper service?" ”
The waiter was stunned for a moment and asked me, "Sir, are you talking about this new service?" We really don't have a cemetery, where did you look? ”
Lu Shan listened to it with relish, slapped me when she heard what I said, and said with a smile to the salesman: "Don't listen to his nonsense, tease you, he said that it is a royal cemetery in Africa, China does not, just came back from abroad, don't mind." ”
The salesman also said with a straight face: "I said why haven't I heard it, we are at the royal level, we don't have it, and other cemeteries don't have it." Looks like I'm going to have to go back to my studies, and I haven't heard of anything new. ”
I couldn't hold it back, so I walked to a place where no one was and snickered.
Zhou Tongtong and Lu Shan completed the formalities and came out to me very satisfied.
In the car, the two of them have been discussing the cemetery, and Lu Shanfei said that he would save money to buy one, and if he wanted the kind of double burial, he would leave half for me. Zhou Tongtong was unhappy, and after some discussion, the two finally decided to buy a three-person burial, I guess there is really no one in this country.
When he returned home, Zhou Tongtong first called Zhao Tiesuo and arranged a funeral and cremation early tomorrow morning.
Then Lu Shan helped Zhou Tongtong clean up a room, saying that other things would be brought over by a moving company when Zhou Tongtong had a summer vacation.
I went online to find some real estate agents, and I wanted to sell the Zhou family's house, that eerie yard, and I didn't want Zhou Tongtong to live in it anymore.
I suddenly remembered the bottomless pot, so I asked Zhou Tongtong: "Tongtong, where is the silver kettle in your father's living room?" ”
Zhou Tongtong thought for a while and said, "Lost? ”
I hurriedly asked, "Why did you lose it?" ”
Zhou Tongtong said: "I went home two days ago and saw that the pot was gone, so I asked where my father went?" My dad said he gave it away. I asked him who he was sending to? I still like it, why don't you give it to me? My dad couldn't say anything, so he probably lost it. ”
As soon as I heard it, it's a pity, before Boss Zhou died, he didn't ask who came out to teach him to cultivate ghost eyes, and that pot, and the pot that the fat brother brought out, must have the same root, and one more might be able to give a little more clues and find the Divine Eye. Let God's eyes also show me what the origin of my eyes is. But hundreds of years have passed, and looking for this daughter of Ge Dan again is really looking for a needle in a haystack. Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, it was Boss Zhou's funeral, and many people went to the funeral, all of whom were bosses in the business field.
Zhou Tongtong was very busy, and all kinds of uncles, aunts, aunts, and aunts bowed and said hello.
There are a lot of things I know and I want to say hello to.
The body was said goodbye, cremated, and buried in the cemetery, and the whole process was quite smooth.
Then it was one guest after another, bowing to the tombstone, and in the process I saw a lady, black professional suit, black tube skirt, black stockings, black high heels, a European-style black hat, and sunglasses, her skin was very white, and the lipstick on her mouth was particularly obvious, standing from afar.
I looked very familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was, so I hurriedly asked Zhou Tongtong, and when I found Zhou Tongtong, and when I turned around, the woman was no longer there.
The luncheon was held at Uncle's other restaurant. It is very rich, and a plate of cold tofu per table is a must for the white banquet.
There were many ignorant uncles during the banquet, all of whom came to toast Zhou Tongtong, their father died, and they drank like the groom and the groom one by one, and Zhou Tongtong was still young, so why did he remember to toast the juniors.
Lu Shan blocked the wine all the way, and after a while, she was drunk and confused.
Fat brother and Sister Hua didn't care about that, they just ate by themselves.
The fat brother introduced to Sister Hua while eating: "This meal is nothing, I went to another club with the boss last time, and the food was much better than this." ”
I kept identifying, who the guests were, which ones I knew and which I didn't, hoping to find some clues, and find the person who taught Boss Zhou to practice ghost eyes, as well as the woman in the cemetery, which did not appear again at the banquet.
Towards the end of the party, I received an international call from my adoptive mother, and she first asked me how I was doing. Do you miss your parents? Have you ever hung out? Is life comfortable? Have you ever had a girlfriend?
I answered her one by one to reassure her. But there is no mention of Wangtan Temple.
Then she told me not to learn badly, to do things in moderation, but not to develop any bad problems. When you've had enough, go to the United States to find them.
I said yes like a good baby.
Finally, I heard that Boss Zhou died of a heart attack, and I was also present, so I asked them to help Boss Zhou's family, they came back from abroad for a trip, let me treat the funeral on my behalf, and I wanted to bring greetings to Boss Zhou's family.
I don't even know, why are my mother's ears so smart? She can know in the United States, I was there when Boss Zhou died.
So, I told me about Boss Zhou's will, and said that I am now Zhou Tongtong's property administrator.
My mother first complained that I was impulsive, and then soft-hearted, saying that they would treat Tongtong as their own daughter, and Zhou Tongtong would be my sister in the future, and this child would be pitiful.
I asked them about their physical condition.
Mom said she was fine, but my dad also had a heart attack, so I asked me not to play outside for too long, and go back to see them early, my dad misses me.
Later, I asked again: "Mom, do you know that Boss Zhou's wife, that is, Zhou Tongtong's mother, is called Xu Dan." ”
Mom paused for a while and said, "It's the one that got lost, right?" I know there's going on. You comfort and comfort Tongtong more, and tell her that her mother can't forget her child, and her mother will come back sooner or later. ”
As soon as I was about to say something more, my mother said, "When the time comes, my mother is going to worship the Buddha, and I will call you again, you have to be obedient." Hearing my response, the phone hung up.
After hanging up the phone, I sighed again, my adoptive mother is really a kind-hearted person, and there is nothing wrong with having a little faith. But she said, "Sooner or later, her mother will be back." "I always feel that there is something in the words, a little meaningful.
I don't have time to think about this, wait for the banquet to end and leave quickly, the fat brother's car and Xiao Hei are still thrown at Liu Laohan's house.
