Chapter 105: Efficiency
"Mom, Xiaoying!!"
Dad was so frightened that he held her, and immediately pinched her sister-in-law's person with one hand, "Xiaoying!" ”
I don't know if I was wrong, at the moment when my sister-in-law fainted, the corner of my brother's mouth who was kneeling on the ground unconsciously puffed up with a chuckle, the meaning of ridicule was obvious, just a moment, and it was gone!
"Hey! It's none of my business! ”
The third uncle raised his hand, all kinds of innocent looks, "She is dizzy herself!" I'm just talking about things! But...... It's okay if she's dizzy, it's too squeaky, that's ...... Wise, is what my brother said right? ”
Chen Yingming has been silent, this husband deserves it, all kinds of things are out of the way, seeing Zhu Xiaoying fainting, he didn't help him, and he looked like he couldn't bear it anymore and didn't like to pretend.
After listening to the third uncle's words, he nodded and glanced at his father, "Big brother, let her sleep, our ears are clean......"
Dad was a little unhappy with his attitude, after all, he is his own brother, and he still has tendons when he breaks his bones!
But Dad didn't say much, grandma was still lying on the ground, he could only help his sister-in-law to lie down on the hospital bed and continue to talk about Grandma's funeral, make a phone call, and have to wait for someone from the funeral home to pick it up.
I didn't squeak, just watched the third uncle give Zhu Xiaoying fainting and knelt down beside her grandmother, and her eyes were red, "Auntie, don't blame me, your daughter, ordinary people can't stand it, in the future, your granddaughter, how angry will you have to suffer from her......"
The third uncle seemed to be talking to his grandmother, and he was also saying to all the people with ears, "Auntie, you said that this is a man, do you have to have a bowl of water to be flat, alas~ Spring dreams and autumn clouds, it's really easy to gather and disperse, if you know under the spring, bless your granddaughter more in the future, come, Jingwei...... Come here...... Kowtow a few times, and your milk will be pulled away in a while......"
"Hmm."
I knelt beside the third uncle, kowtowed to my grandmother a few times, and was warm to the third uncle's maintenance in my heart, but I really couldn't cry when I cried.
The third uncle was still sighing beside me, talking about what he was talking about a few days ago, saying that if he didn't, it would be gone, and people would die like lights going out, and this life would come to an end.
I looked at my grandmother on the ground, the sunset outside the window, the tiles were inlaid with a layer of light gold, and I was lonely~
Thinking about it, it's still my grandmother's memories of what I looked like when I was born last year......
Lose a lifetime of haggardness, just a few dusks?
……
About half an hour later, the funeral home came, and it was still the small coffin, the small one, put it in for the grandmother, and carried it away.
Crisp and clean!
The funeral in the city is not like the countryside, and you can afford to bring it home, and the city pays attention to what kind of dragon.
The crematorium funeral parlor is all in one place, people go directly to the funeral home, rent a memorial room with an ice coffin, more than a dozen sacrificial houses are lined up, and wreaths and paper are all available.
There are professionals who cry, I watched a woman cry two times in a row, and when I arrived at my grandmother, she could burst into tears!
Dad waited for her to cry and gave 200 yuan, and the third uncle presided over the funeral next to her, and he had to shout out a voice to reward the owner!
As soon as I entered the city, I also opened my eyes, and I mourned in the town, and every step was tedious and sad!
Blowing the trumpet, writing an obituary, sending ginger water, burning a big paper after the light is opened, and on the day of the funeral, a daughter has to hold a broom with her back to the road and sweep it all the time.
Passing by the door of the neighborhood, everyone will come out to send it off, and the soft-hearted will shed some tears, and the deceased will never be seen again.
But here, I feel that it is efficiency, as long as the money is in place, I don't have to worry about anything!
There is no need for a vigil, saying that it is different from the countryside, and the rural vigil is a living creature, and I am afraid that the cat will fly over and startle the corpse.
There are ice coffins in the city, and there are no cats and dogs, you can go home after lighting incense, rest and come back the next morning, or Dad asked, we can be regarded as able to stay next to Grandma's ice coffin and keep renewing incense for her.
The eldest grandmother said, this incense, it's like a lamp below, if it doesn't continue, she's black!
My brother and I had very few words, and we didn't communicate during this period, and he was a stranger to me, and so did I.
What I thought about the most in the three days was the big store I saw when I went down, grandma, I should have lived in it.
The busiest should be the grandmother.
Although she didn't preside over the funeral, she couldn't be idle, the small coffin that grandma was going to use after cremation, whether it was apricot wood or willow wood, Dad didn't understand, she had to choose from her big milk, including going to the cemetery to see the land, and her grandmother accompanied her father to decide.
When I was kneeling and burning paper, I heard my dad keep settling accounts with my grandmother, saying that which land was too expensive, which land was short, and that he had insufficient budget.
I didn't ask much about the specifics, just one thing clearly, every inch of land in the city, and if there is no money, people really can't afford to die.
The most chic should belong to my sister-in-law!
Grandma's sister-in-law was dizzy in the funeral home for three days, saying that she had some illness when she was a child, and she would twitch when she was angry, and she had an intermittent fever until her grandmother's cemetery was settled, and she didn't wake up until she was buried three days after the funeral!
Although no one understood what they said, they all tacitly thought that it was quite time for her to wake up, otherwise she might be too busy to talk about people!
On the day of the round tomb, as soon as the car arrived at the bottom of the cemetery, the sister-in-law began to be dissatisfied, "Brother, how did you choose this cemetery, this is two hours to drive, it's too far, besides, feng shui is also very ordinary!" ”
"Other cemeteries are also expensive!"
Dad doesn't have any patience, these days, he is in no mood to shave his beard, "Who takes the money." ”
"That can't make our mother wronged......"
The sister-in-law muttered, "My poor mother, I have lived all my life, and I can't sleep well when I'm gone, and so are you, you can't wait for me to wake up for such a big matter, the feng shui of the grave is not good, and our descendants will not have a good life." ”
"Oh, this aunt has chosen, you can stop......"
Dad was tired, driving all kinds of tiredness, because he wanted to round the grave, the family got it, so Dad specially asked a friend to borrow the van, I sat in the back with the big milk, in front of my mother and younger brother, the sister-in-law was in the co-pilot, the little uncle did not come, to go to work, and the third uncle was also persuaded by the big milk to go home to rest.
The main reason is that the big milk forced the third uncle to go back to rest, she was afraid that the third uncle would not look down on Zhu Xiaoying, in front of the grandmother's grave, it was not like that.
"What's wrong with me, brother, you won't help me when I am smoked by that wine......"
As she spoke, my sister-in-law also glanced at me from the indoor mirror, "One by one, you know that you are facing outsiders." ”
"Xiaoying, don't say it."
Mom reminded in a whisper, "The third brother is not an outsider, aren't they all our old neighbors......"
Old neighbors?
I'm still a little upset when I think about it.
The big milk never told me about the environment of my father's house before, I thought that when I entered the city, it might be to live in a building, if the conditions are average, it is a few rooms and a few halls, and Ren Xin and I are not like that when we watch TV at home.
Who knows, my father's house is also in the suburbs, but he moved from the old town of the third uncle to the edge of the city.
A particularly small yard, it is difficult to put a tricycle, the green bricks in the yard are still potholes, I live in the room where my grandmother used to live, this should be a big house, but my father added a board in the middle of the house, and the other half of the back of the waist became two houses for Zhu Hao to live.
The door is opened on the left and right, and the entrance is like entering each room, but in fact, the middle wall is a board!
Let's not talk about whether it is sound insulation or not, this board is still a bit short, there are gaps below, if Zhu Hao sleeps late, I don't need to chisel the wall to steal the light!
Translucent!
These days I slept in that hut with my grandmother, and the two of us squeezed into a single bed, and there was nothing to fit except a small wardrobe and a bedside table.
The neighbors are really relatives at home!
My sister-in-law and my uncle live in the courtyard at the back, so we can know as soon as this sister-in-law wakes up.
One of my mother's younger sisters, my second aunt, also lives nearby, but I met her at my grandmother's funeral.
I heard that there is no serious job, and I go on a blind date if I have nothing to do, and the fashionable name in the city is the older leftover girl, I don't have a good impression of her, who will come to the funeral and put on makeup, so I will say hello and I will do something else.
so~ I heard my father say that the old neighbor will sigh, if I don't move, will I be able to see the third uncle anytime and anywhere?
On this day, I can always see my sister-in-law's number, I'm afraid of a short life!
"Cut, sister-in-law, you wait, wait until I see the wine Mengzi next time!"
The sister-in-law was resentful when she mentioned the third uncle, "I definitely can't spare him!" ”
