Chapter 37

The annual rings have entered six or six years, and some changes have made people feel that their thinking cannot keep up with the changes.

It turned out that the self-reserved land in the team was not allowed to be planted, and the planted ones were cut off and torn off as the tail of capitalism. Lilac: The row of cucumber pods planted after the collapsed earthen wall outside the courtyard gate of her house has blossomed and borne fruit, and as a result, the niece Xin'e wearing a red armband in the Chunsheng house has been uprooted, and Lilac has been heartbroken for several days.

The original land temples, ancestral halls, and monk temples in the village that had time to be stripped off in the 50s were picked up again, and the ancient books in the family collection were all half-literal red armbands, and the children didn't understand all of them were ripped off and set on fire, and the gods and Buddhas, and the ancestors of the family were also piled up together and burned with oil.

The ancestral temple at the head of the village that existed and did not know which dynasty was completely destroyed by the newly selected captain and deputy director Hu Mansheng, and the ancient temple of hundreds of years of incense has since left only a place name for future generations. In the future, the terrain has changed, and now the people who can know the specific location of the temple are helpless.

There is an old monk in the temple who has a pending order from afar, and the layman has no test.

The old monk planted a lot of good karma in the local area. In addition to promoting Buddhism, he used the medical skills he knew when he was a layman to help the people in the neighboring towns, and helped all living beings, and the incense naturally flourished. He is proficient in Buddhism, has insight into world affairs, and often provides guidance to people, and is famous for hundreds of miles around.

The most commendable thing about the old monk is that he really cultivates Buddhism. Catholicism came to the city of Meicheng in the former Republic of China, and when they first came, the foreigners with high noses, green eyes, and yellow hair walked in the streets and alleys and became monsters. The effect of the Western medicine of the foreigners is incomparable with the ancestral herbs of cloves, headache and brain fever sip a few tablets the size of corn grains, a day or two will be refreshed, and the heavier pain will be pierced directly into the butt meat with a needle with a sharp needle, and it will be effective immediately in two hours.

Foreigners don't charge much, and they are exempted from doing good deeds when they meet some poor and moneyless, and slowly gather a lot of popularity in the local area.

After a long time, the set of worship rituals of the foreigners preaching is not unpleasant. During the service, the crowd followed behind the Westerners and prayed to the shirtless foreigners on the cross in the center of the church.

When praying, the crowd prayed along with the bishop. It's just that when singing hymns, everyone sang the local transliteration, and "Shrimp Rice Record (Fishing) Da Fang Ga......" became a joke for children.

It's good that foreigners are good, but then something happened. Those foreigners came thousands of miles to this poor and remote country of China, and they were fine day after month, but year after year, they couldn't bear the loneliness. The old foreigners are okay, but the young ones deal with the little daughters-in-law and girls a lot on weekdays, and they will inevitably make some troubles.

You love me, God knows it's nothing. But in the 38th year of the Republic of China, the daughter-in-law of a family on West Street gave birth to a yellow-haired and blue-eyed thing. Under the husband's questioning, it turned out that his daughter-in-law often went to church to worship and got along with the young foreigner.

The husband's family is a person with some status and face, and he was ashamed to immediately kill and dispose of the bloody obstacle that had not yet opened his eyes. The woman was so ashamed and anxious that she pulled a rope and hanged herself in the room in the middle of the night without anyone noticing.

The husband's family couldn't swallow that breath, and led the neighbors who met on the four streets of the east, west, south, and north to find the church.

Thanks to someone who reported the news, the two foreigners, one old and one young, smeared oil on the soles of their feet and slipped away. Needless to say, the church was smashed all over the ground.

Later, people said that it was still the old monk in the ancestral temple who was high, and he was like a day for decades, and he risked a little bit of meat to let people talk about it.

Since then, the incense in the temple has been more prosperous.

After the liberation, the new government advocated the return of monks to the laity. The old monk dismissed his disciples, but he stayed in the temple and never returned. The old monk has a good reputation on weekdays, and no one knows his vulgar books, so Chen Xinyun's branch secretary deliberately allocated a few acres of land for him to serve, not to join the society, and to be self-reliant.

Hu Mansheng gained momentum, so he started the old monk's idea, but the old monk did not enter the oil and salt, and swore not to return to the vulgar. Hu Mansheng was ruthless, and sent his subordinates to the temple to pick up the monk, and criticized the village several times. Every time he criticized the fight, the old monk closed his eyes and read something in his mouth, letting others beat and scold, as if the skin was not his own.

Later, on a morning in the early autumn of June 66, the old monk asked the two apprentices who had returned to the world to set up a pile of chopping wood in the broken temple, sat on the pyrewood and put their hands together, and asked the apprentices to light a fire and burn themselves to see the Buddha.

On the day of the sitting, many men, women, and children in the vicinity of the brigade went to see it. Lilac crowded in the crowd, and when she saw the old monk clasping her hands together, she ordered the two apprentices to light the fire.

The apprentices were a little unbearable and didn't dare to order, at this time the old monk opened his closed eyes, swept the apprentices, and said in his mouth: "Always show the people, and the people don't know themselves." Turn away from the mortal fetal meat, and go west to the Buddha's voice! Don't be obsessed, let's do it! ”

When the apprentice heard this, he seemed to have an understanding, knelt down and kowtowed to the master, saluted, and lit a fire.

After a while, the flames with green smoke grew larger, and the flickering flames wrapped the old monk. The old monk did not move, letting the flames burn his shabby robe, beard and eyebrows, and his mouth was tense as if he were reading the scriptures. In an instant, the fire ignited the broken temple, and the old monk and the broken temple were all turned into ashes, and the smell of charcoal in the flames mixed with the scorching smell of skin and flesh diffused to make people suffocate and nauseate.

By the time the group of red armbands arrived, the ruined temple had been reduced to ashes, and the skeleton of the old monk was still burning. The young generals were angry when they saw the old monk burning his hands together, and shouted that he would throw this stubborn bald donkey into the river and feed the fish and let him go to see his Buddha!

Just do it, everyone pinched their noses and kicked the old monk's skeleton away, loaded the old monk's bones with an earthen basket, and threw it into the deep water bay of the big river more than 20 meters in front of the temple.

Lilac later secretly went to the river bend to give the old monk an incense offering, many years later she told her grandchildren that the old monk had obtained the truth, and he did not know the pain of burning the skin and flesh, and he was a Bodhisattva Buddha who became an immortal.

What makes Lilac the most sad is that the lilac tree at the entrance of the village has also been broken as an old custom and superstitious activity, and Hu Mansheng personally led people to do it when he cut down the tree.

In his words, he had long been looking at the tree unpleasantly, and he didn't know who was burning incense and paper money there under the tree for many years, which was a typical feudal superstition.

Poor lilac tree, which has grown for hundreds or thousands of years, has survived thousands of years of wind, frost, rain and snow, and suffered from the infestation of rats and insects in the dry moon in disaster years, but it can't escape the knife and axe, and turns into firewood in the stoves of ordinary members.

Later, an incident almost caused Lilac to fall into the abyss of eternity, and Lilac still has palpitations after many years.

It was one night during the Double Ninth Festival, and after Lilac finished work and served the elderly and children, she went to the cowpen and went to the grass building to see the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva she had brought from her mother's house.

Someone suddenly shouted in the darkness: "Sister-in-law, don't make a noise, it's me!" Lilac began to be startled, and listened carefully, it turned out to be Gui Shunjian!

I saw Gui Shunjian carrying a bag in the dark, and I didn't know what it was. Ding Xiang was just about to ask, Gui Shunjian said to Ding Xiang with a panicked expression: "Sister-in-law, this is the tablet of the ancestor Tian Xuan Gong of our Gui family who came to Anhua from Jiangxi. I have been the patriarch for ten years, and I have been at home. Now those people have come to the house and copied it a few times, and they almost removed the roof of my house! I've been hiding for a month, thinking that it's safer to hide in your house, and I'm thinking that you're a single widow, and they won't come to your house! Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you, I'll throw it into the stone cave in the mountain when I turn around! Tian Xuangong alas, the children and grandchildren are not filial, and you can't live in the old man's tablet! ”

When Lilac heard this, she thought about it and said, "Brother Jian, what do you say?" Come, you climb the grass upstairs and hide in the innermost bundles of sesame cards prepared by my mother-in-law when she went back to her hometown to burn the grave, as you may know! Gui Shunjian hurriedly turned over and climbed up, opened the sesame card and saw that there was a statue of Guanyin hidden in Lilac!

Gui Shun didn't dare to stay for a long time after hiding the tablet, and after thanking him, he hurriedly disappeared into the night.

Because of Gui's tablet, Hu Mansheng led people to coerce and torture Gui Shunjian several times, and Gui Shunjian bit to death and said that soon after liberation, he would throw it into the river and let the water wash away. Hu Mansheng, who was angry, had no choice but to throw down the sentence, if they found the tablet in Gui Shunjian's house, they would definitely step on two feet and let him fall into the abyss that will never be restored!

After some tossing, a squad leader named Tang Kangmei suddenly had a flash of inspiration, patted his head and said: "I said that there must be a problem with our struggle method!" Let's think about it, and now the current wave of revolution, it is expected that Gui Shunjian's old thing will not dare to leave that bane in the house! Let's think about it, the tablet of the Gui family must be hidden in the house of the descendants of the Gui family, Gui Shunjian's old slippery head has already transferred the Lao Mozi to other descendants of the Gui family. ”

When Hu Mansheng heard this, he immediately praised happily: "You kid is good, your brain is bright and promising, and you will be remembered for your first work when you find something!" What is Zhou Hanbing, who is also worthy of being the director?! Boy, do a good job, and when I am promoted in the future, this deputy director position is yours! ”

Early the next morning, under Hu Mansheng's personal deployment, the vast number of people were divided into several groups and searched for the Gui family from house to house.

When I found Lilac's house, Lilac was turning over the straw on the grass floor to change the bed and make the grass.

When Hu Mansheng saw Lilac, he politely called: "Hello sister-in-law Qiusheng!" Today, there is nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, and the revolution above requires the old customs to be broken, and every household must be checked! You're presumptuous, and it's not going to have anything to do with those things. Work 𠼦, you still cooperate, it's good to avoid suspicion! ”

Ding Xiang's heart tightened when she heard this, and she responded: "Captain, you should cooperate with your work, or you come up and have a look!"

Hu Mansheng responded: "Okay, thank you sister-in-law for being reasonable!" As soon as he finished speaking, he turned over and climbed up.

Hu Mansheng turned over the straw at will, and there was a sentence that didn't match the family chores.

Lilac was a little flustered, and she stammered a little when she spoke.

At this time, Hu Mansheng felt a little strange, and said: "Sister-in-law, you can speak well on weekdays, why don't you be quick today!"

While speaking, Hu Mansheng slipped without paying attention, and just kicked away the sesame card that hid the tablet Guanyin statue, revealing the tablet Guanyin statue inside!

In an instant, the air froze. Hu Mansheng opened his mouth and looked at the frightened Lilac without making a sound.

After a long moment, the people downstairs saw that there was no sound. So Tang Kangmei raised his head and joked with Hu Mansheng, "Captain, sister-in-law hurts Uncle Pain, do you have something to do later?!" There are still a lot of people to search! ”

Hu Mansheng came back to his senses, flicked the sesame card with his foot, and lowered his voice and said to Lilac: "Sister-in-law, turn around and throw this bane away!"

After finishing speaking, he grabbed a handful of straw and threw it at Tang Kangmei downstairs, and scolded in his mouth: "You kid can't spit ivory in his mouth, and his mouth is full of feces!" You eat straw as a beast, and people like Qiusheng's sister-in-law and saint are also joked by you?! ”

Before the words fell, Hu Mansheng turned over and got off the grass building. That Tang Kangmei was still there and said with a smile: "Aunt Qiusheng is a risk, your captain doesn't know!"

Hu Mansheng pretended to be angry and smacked him, and scolded: "Just your kid is nonsense, if you don't study well, your uncle's reputation will make you a yellow-headed boy ruined!"

In the midst of the scolding, Hu Mansheng led the team away.

At this time, the frightened Lilac hurriedly piled several stacks of straw and re-compacted the tablet Guanyin statue.

When I went downstairs, I was soaked and my face was pale.

The blessed person who went back to the house to eat was blessed, and asked with concern: "Mom, what's wrong with you, sweating profusely?" Lilac breathed a sigh of relief and replied calmly: "What a risk, the sweat I got from turning the straw just now."

At this moment, half a mile away from the courtyard of the Lilac family, Gui Shunjian was anxious. When he saw Hu Mansheng and the others coming out of the lilac house empty-handed, he immediately sat down on the ground, sweat dripping down his chin on the ground. It took him a moment before he got up and went home.

After the reform and opening up, all families and ethnic groups have built genealogies and recounted clan friendships.

When Lilac took out the tablet of Tian Xuan and the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva again, scrubbed them clean and placed them on the shrine of the hall. When everyone saw the tablet of Tian Xuan, who carved a dragon and painted a phoenix, everyone praised that Lilac had done a good deed that blessed his descendants and made great merits.

Lilac heard everyone's praise, smiled faintly, and said: "What is the credit for taking the risk, but back then, I thought that it was broken this and that, everything was broken, and it was too broken, which family had the ancestor?!" Those who burned their ancestors jumped out of the cracks in the stones, and they also worshipped a stone as a godmother! ”

Later, Hu Mansheng had a dispute with Zhou Hanbing, the titular leader of the brigade, because of the criticism of He Hongguang's wife in the He family.

When looking back at the movement, the He family was targeted by Hu Mansheng again, and he wanted to put gold in front of the commune leaders for himself by liquidating the sins of the He family.

He Hongguang's wife and Zhou Hanbing were originally some relatives, and He Hongguang's wife was low-key on weekdays, soft-hearted and very popular with her neighbors. After the land reform, she put down the figure of the eldest lady, and the fields in the soil can be regarded as a good hand! If it weren't for the movement of looking back, no matter how much exercise would have come to her head again. Therefore, he deeply criticized He Hongguang's reactionary thoughts, and agreed with the ideological education of He Hongguang's wife Zhou Hanbing, but he strongly opposed the struggle against He Hongguang's wife Zhou Hanbing.

Speaking of which, Zhou Hanbing, the director, was snatched from Hu Mansheng's head, and when he thought of this, Hu Mansheng's teeth itched!

I think that at that time, Secretary Wang of the commune was promoted to be the county magistrate of the county, and the successor Secretary Cao was rebelled and stepped aside. Deputy Secretary Liu, who was in command during the construction of the reservoir, became the secretary of the commune.

At that time, Secretary Liu made a mistake when selecting the director of the Red Star Brigade. At that time, two candidates were submitted, one was Hu Mansheng, one was Tang Kangmei, and the other was Tang Qiguang, a revolutionary activist.

Secretary Liu couldn't make up his mind, so he asked Chen Xinyun and Zheng Zongde, the deputy branch secretary of the Red Star Brigade, for their opinions. Chen Xinyun thought for a while, and said to Secretary Liu meaningfully: "The wave of the movement is great and correct, and we resolutely support it!" It's just that the team nominated me personally. Captain Hu has been active in the revolution for many years, but he has been ruthless in his methods, and it is somewhat contrary to the policy to beat Long Er to death during the land reform, of course, it is understandable that the revolutionary masses were a little radical at that time! And when he fights, he has a weight in his hands, and he almost pulled you into the water when he was repairing the reservoir! Tang Qiguang 𠼦, enthusiastic and positive, but he can't do big things with too little experience, and he can't be on the stage, anti-American, a hairy child, experience and experience......"

Secretary Liu seemed to be thoughtful when he heard this, and hurriedly interrupted his words and asked, "Chen Zhishu, you know, do you two have other suitable candidates in your heart?"

Chen Zhishu glanced at Deputy Branch Secretary Zheng and motioned for him to speak. Zheng Zongde understood and said: "You know the Secretary Liu of the Zhou Hanbing of the Ninth Team, the ancestors have been extremely poor for generations, a little stunned, and the heart is still soft, Secretary Liu, do you see?"

Secretary Liu thought for a while and said to the two of them: "Well, okay! Don't make a fuss about this! Don't tell Zhou Hanbing first, I have my own ideas! ”

Later, when the Red Star Brigade established a revolutionary committee, the commune officially declared Zhou Hanbing as the director of the brigade XXX, and Hu Mansheng deigned to be the deputy director. Tang Qiguang stayed away from the whirlpool, and he had been the captain for more than ten years, but he was pitiful that Liu Kangmei took the young generals to the house on weekdays, and clinged to Hu Mansheng.

At that time, Hu Mansheng's face turned blue. turned around and encouraged Tang Kangmei and other henchmen, saying that as long as Zhou Hanbing was arrested in the future, he would find his fault!

Although Han Bing was stunned that week, he was not stupid, and when he was appointed, Secretary Liu talked to him and told him about the things recommended by Chen Zhishu.

Later, when the establishment was overthrown, a mass meeting was held, and Zhou Hanbing, as the director of the newly established revolutionary committee, took the stage and presided over the speech.

At that time, in accordance with the spirit of his superiors, he led the masses to chant slogans to defeat Chen Xinyun, the person in power. At the end of the meeting, he looked at the Chen branch secretary who was being criticized in the audience, and shouted in the microphone in front of everyone: "Chen Xinyun, I defeated you, and the branch secretary still wants you to do it!"

When the audience heard this, they immediately burst into laughter, and they were so ashamed that Chen Zhishu and several of their criticized leaders turned red.

Since Zhou Hanbing became the director, the villagers have looked at each other differently. He was in his thirties and alone, and he actually handed in the peach blossom luck, and Li Cuiping, the eighteen-year-old yellow flower girl of the thirteenth team, actually fell in love with him.

Coincidentally, the old man Li Cuiping was a teacher, and the intellectuals at that time were stinky old men, and the old man was really stupid and ignorant of current affairs. Teaching always has a straight face, and the exit is the tone that the master has clouds and the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and later the old man is broken as an old culture.

Although Zhou Hanbing became the director and couldn't stop the revolutionary wave, he admired educated people in his bones. Especially the old man's full mouth of Zi Yue Shiyun made those people think of the flood beast and criticized the fight, and he also stepped on his feet and twisted a few times. But Cao Hanbing, who had read the book, listened to it, but he admired it in his heart. So he felt compassion in his heart, and helped him a few times openly and secretly.

Later, the old man didn't know the current affairs, and quoted a few words of irony, although Tang Qiguang, who was well-versed in literature and ink, didn't fully understand what the old man said, but he probably still knew that the old man's mouth was not a fragrant lotus. So he secretly prepared people to put the old man to death, completely knock him down, and put him in prison for food.

Zhou Hanbing really had no choice, and Secretary Liu of the Central Commune transferred the old man to a social enterprise as an accountant, and dealt with the ten foreign yards all day long. Although the old man is stupid, he is not stupid, and since then he has recorded the goodness of Zhou Hanbing!

The old man had three daughters and no sons, and the villagers were discriminated against on weekdays, so he tried his best to get his beloved youngest daughter Li Cuiping to associate with Zhou Hanbing. That Li Cuiping is a revolutionary young woman, Zhou Hanbing is grateful to her family for taking care of her on weekdays, and the title of director Zhou Hanbing adds a bit of brilliance. The old man supported him again, and he married Zhou Hanbing as soon as he was hot.

Zhou Hanbing was proud to marry such a flower-like girl in his thirties, and on the day of the wedding, he was stunned to break the law of simple handling of revolutionary marriages, and invited five or six tables of guests. Secretary Liu, who was invited to participate, had an ugly face at the time, but because Zhou Hanbing only became a family in his thirties, it was not easy for him not to have a seizure on the spot.

On the third day after the marriage, Secretary Liu scolded Zhou Hanbing, who went to the commune to do business, for a while, and asked him to write an inspection. Zhou Hanbing was scolded and checked, and he was still happy in his heart. When I met people, my wife praised the leaders of the commune for the inspection that I wrote, saying that the writing was good, and the voice was not rich, and it was also used as a model for review in the commune to promote and study!

Zhou Hanbing was stunned, in the future, his mother-in-law gave birth to a son and two daughters, all of whom were smart and good-looking, and the eldest son and youngest daughter were also admitted to the school in the future.

The neighbors often make fun of him, saying that you were the director of the second year of the year, and you got a beautiful wife, not to mention, the cub girls are not like you turtle king, it is really a bent bamboo shoot, your old guy has made a lot of money, it is your Zhou family's ancestral tomb that is smoking!

When he heard this, Zhou Hanbing said, what kind of ghost life are you talking about, my eldest family walks with his shoulders crooked like me, why is it not like me?! Even if my seed is good, no matter how good the field is, it will not grow such a good crop!

Looking at the neighbors who were dumbfounded by him, Zhou Hanbing's heart blossomed.

Later, Zhou Hanbing finally asked Hu Mansheng to find out what was wrong and masturbated his director.

Zhou Hanbing couldn't read a few big words, and he made speeches and reports at meetings, and he coped with things according to the script. For a while, the county leaders came to inspect the work, and arranged for Zhou Hanbing to make a report as the director.

As soon as Tang Qiguang's kid saw that the opportunity came, he made a mistake, and secretly thought in his heart how to make Zhou Hanbing look foreign in front of the leader.

After thinking about it, he slapped his head and said secretly, come on, just play him to death.

On the day of the report, Tang Qiguang wrote a report to Zhou Hanbing to report on the situation, and asked him to memorize it and recite it to the leaders when they came.

Zhou Hanbing didn't think about it, and on the day of the report, he memorized it to the leaders according to Tang Qiguang's teaching.

After the leader heard this, he was displeased at that time. I muttered in my heart, I asked him to talk about the typical example of the brigade grasping the revolution with both hands, and he did not report to the horse's mouth what advanced and glorious deeds of digging deep into the hidden elements of the class line, who is this?

After listening to the report, the leader found Secretary Liu. Say, you director is not good, he is stunned to report to me a typical example of digging deep into saboteurs, what kind of stuff are you doing?!

In this way, Zhou Hanbing took the title of director, and since then he has been down-to-earth with the land that he has dealt with for generations. He was thus blessed by misfortune and escaped the reckoning of setting things right.

The neighbors all said that Zhou Hanbing was a fool and a fool, and Hua Lao had only been a Chinese family for three years, and he was a stupid old man who had been the master of our brigade for two years!

Hearing this, Zhou Hanbing always scratched the back of his head, and laughed.

That Hu Mansheng thought he had gained power after stroking Zhou Hanbing, and the next day he led Tang Kangmei and a group of people to criticize He Hongguang's wife.

He is still as ruthless as when he criticized the second master of Doulong and Tang Youguang, and he ordered someone to hang half of the pig from He Hongguang's wife.

Poor He Hongguang's wife, a female streamer, was old and old, and she passed out after only ten seconds of hanging. At that time, the other relatives of the He family were angry when they saw it, and they snatched He Hongguang's wife down, and it took a whole afternoon to rescue her and drag her back from the ghost gate!

The son of the He family, who came back from the news, immediately reported to the commune, and other people in the brigade who were dissatisfied with Hu Mansheng on weekdays also jointly sued!

Because the people's anger was too great, the wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and Secretary Liu also had some opinions about him, Director Hu Mansheng pretended to be, and the deputy director and captain gave all of them off.

Later, the young deputy branch secretary Zheng Zongde concurrently served as the director, and the deputy director was gradually increased by Tang Kangmei. After Tang Kangmei experienced these accidents, he clamped his tail and behaved, and he no longer dared to make a son.

He Hongguang's wife is kind and rewarding, in 88, Taiwan opened veterans to visit relatives, and her husband He Hongguang, who has been looking forward to it for decades, has news. is living well, the police chief has been living in the Veterans House since he retired, and Taiwan has not remarried for decades, and he pretends that his hometown wife and children can't let go!

Just the day before He Hongguang returned to his hometown, the old lady passed away in her sleep at the age of more than 90, and walked away with a smile on her face full of vicissitudes. Relatives and friends in the neighborhood all said that the old man had a good life in his past and present lives, and he died well.

He Hongguang was still half a mile home, and he saw the white flags fluttering in the wind in the old house from a distance.

He stumbled into the mourning hall with the support of his children and grandchildren, and when he looked at the posthumous photo of his wife, who was already old but vaguely had the charm of the year, he suddenly burst into tears and couldn't cry, "Jingyi, I've been waiting for decades, why can't you wait for three or five more days......"

There was a commotion in the mourning hall, and there was a wail.

Jingyi is the name of Mr. Ho Hongguang's wife. Later, the old gentleman used the money he had saved in his life to donate to the local government to build a junior high school.

The name of the school is Jingyi Middle School, and a pair of Yinglian is hung on both sides of the majestic gate.

In the book, "The mountains and rivers are still the same, the water flows for a long time, the years are not old, and the people of Yi are quiet." Mulberry is the same, thriving, changing with each passing day, and students should study. ”

She has many children and grandchildren, and all of them are promising, and the funeral is very grand.

On the day of the funeral, Hu Mansheng went to send a personal favor as usual - according to local customs, death is great, and there are some small grudges and grudges on weekdays, and such a major event is a must. The children and grandchildren of the He family are very filial, and the adults and children who come to mourn in the village will kneel and salute as long as they pass through the spiritual field.

Hu Mansheng entered the mourning hall, and the son of the He family, who had just knelt down to greet the guests, pulled up a group of brothers, nephews, and grandchildren, bent down slightly at Hu Mansheng, and said: "Thank you very much Director Hu for having the heart to mourn my mother today, but I am exempt from worshipping you today, I'm sorry Director Hu!" Believe me, my wife doesn't blame us! Director Hu, please sit down and sip thin wine, and look at Haihan if the hospitality is not good! ”

At that time, Hu Mansheng was so ashamed that he was ashamed of himself, and he left in a hurry without eating after the ceremony.

End of Chapter 39
