I remember that if there is a funeral in the countryside, the neighbors and the family will come to help cut the white cloth to make filial piety clothes, and people will come and go constantly.

After all, the deceased is the greatest, even if the relationship was not harmonious in the past, he will be more generous at this time. Or help do what you can, or come over and howl twice to express sincere or insincere grief.

It's always going to come and take a spin.

It's just that there is a premise for this circle, and it needs to be built on the basis that the other party can help or cry in the future, and if this foundation does not exist, then there is no need for them to come over.

People, that's how realistic it is.

Shen Lanxin's family is not only an outsider, but there are only two orphans and widows left, not to mention that Shen Lanxin is still a girl. Although I was admitted to a first-class university, I can't see the real benefits in front of me, so who knows what will happen in the future?

Even if she can get along well in the future, she wants to get married in the end, and there is no family in the village, and when she marries, she may never come back here.

So whether it's to help or cry at her house, there is only a loss, and it's better not to go.

Probably everyone has this kind of mentality, so in the house where Shen Lanxin's coffin is parked, there are only Shen Lanxin and Lu Yongcong.

Lin Baoyue and the others walked into the courtyard and saw Shen Lanxin wearing a wide white filial piety dress and a filial piety hat on her head, kneeling straight in front of her grandmother's coffin, motionless.

Lu Yongcong knelt side by side with her, with a brazier in front of him, and from time to time raised his hand to add folded yellow table paper to it, and the flames rose, and a few wisps of ash floated.

"Lan Xin."

When Lin Baoyue's voice sounded in the house, Shen Lanxin thought it was a hallucination at first.

These days have been immersed in dazed grief, she didn't know that Baoyue was coming, Lu Yongcong may have mentioned it, but she didn't pay attention.

So at this time, when she heard the familiar voice at first glance, she thought it was a dream and she hadn't slept for three days, and sometimes in a trance she saw her grandmother in front of her, and the white-haired old man looked at her with a smile, beckoning to her as before, "Lan Xin, come here." ”

She wanted to go over, but when she blinked, Grandma was gone.

So at this time, seeing Lin Baoyue walking in from the outside, getting closer and closer, she couldn't help but blink, but the difference this time was that she couldn't blink Lin Baoyue away, but she blinked herself unconscious.

Lu Yongcong reacted quickly, caught her fallen body in time, and picked her up horizontally, while saying to Baoyue and others, "She hasn't slept for three days, and she hasn't eaten much, so she should be overtired." ”

Xiao Yizhou followed his uncle to practice in the hospital for more than half a year, and this simple symptom can still be checked.

"Excessive fatigue and excessive sadness, let her rest first."

Lu Yongcong carried Shen Lanxin to the bed, Lin Baoyue and Deng Weiwei helped take off the filial piety clothes and coat and shoes, and then carefully helped her cover the quilt.

After a few people walked outside the house, Lu Yongcong took the initiative to tell the process of the next grandmother's funeral, "I have made an appointment with the crematorium, I will go to the cremation the day after tomorrow, and the queen will be buried in the world." Lan Xin said that her family had no relatives, so the funeral would not be held, and the grave would be repaired after the burial. I thought it would be too simple and not good, so I ordered everything in town and sent it after the cremation. ”

Lu Yongcong's arrangements are still relatively proper, and now there is no banquet for the funeral, and everything else has basically been arranged. He didn't really understand it, he asked the neighbor next door, and then he did it step by step.

In fact, he is even more tired than Shen Lanxin in the past few days, on the one hand, he has to take care of her, and on the other hand, he has to buy all the things he wants to buy, and arrange them in advance.

There is also the most important thing, to prevent Lan Xin from hearing the gossip of the village at this time.

To say that it is understandable that I couldn't see the little girl in the hospital before, she was too young to take care of people in the hospital, but now she has returned home and still hasn't seen anyone.

Carrying Shen Lanxin on his back, Lu Yongcong found out about the middle-aged couple, and it turned out that before Grandma Shen's leg was injured, the little girl was picked up by someone from her grandmother's side.

"That girl has no conscience, and her grandmother has raised her for so long, and she can't afford her grandparents to say two good words to her. Just go, no nostalgia at all. We all suspect that the money Lan Xin sent to her grandmother was also taken by her, otherwise when we sent the Shen family's aunt to the hospital, she wouldn't have said let us help cushion it and give it back when Lan Xin came back. ”

These were the original words of the couple next door, and Lu Yongcong didn't know how to tell Shen Lanxin after hearing it at the time.

The reason why she sends so much money to her home every month, how much can grandma spend at such an age? It's not to raise a little girl for her to go to school.

But now her hard-working sister has betrayed her, not only that, but grandma is very likely to have something to do with the little girl when she walks so fast.

But now is not the time to talk about this, no matter what, you have to finish grandma's funeral.

It's just that Lu Yongcong also understands in his heart that Lan Xin is so smart, she hasn't seen her sister since she came back, and she may not have counted in her heart.

Or that her sadness at the moment is not just because of the loss of her grandmother

There were ten more foreign college students in the courtyard of the Shen family, and it was no longer as lonely and lonely as Xiao Suo before.

The village chief stood at the gate of the Shen family and first glanced at the two magnificent cars, and then called the couple next door to walk into the Shen family together.

"Lan Xin, where's the girl?"

Hearing the shout, Lu Yongcong took the lead in meeting him, and the people here couldn't understand what he was talking about, except for him. What's more, he's been here a few times, and he's already familiar with the couple next door.

So the communication with the people in the village naturally depends on him.

"This is Lan Xin's object, village chief, if you have anything to say to him, this baby is very good and can do things."

Hearing the sentence "Lan Xin's object", Lu Yongcong's face couldn't help but turn red, he glanced sideways at Lin Baoyue and the others not far away, and coughed lightly uncomfortably.

Thankfully, they don't understand the dialect.

"Uncle Village, Lan Xin is resting in the house, what can you tell me."

"It's not a big deal, I just want to ask what you plan to do about the funeral of the old lady of the Shen family? Do you need me to arrange it for you when you are buried? ”

Nature is needed.

The cemetery is the land of Lan Xin's family, and grandma is going to be buried with grandpa, but digging a pit is particular. They don't understand and don't dare to dig indiscriminately.

Originally, Lu Yongcong planned to ask the middle-aged couple next door to help find someone to do it, but the money was ready, and he thought about going to someone's house at night to discuss.

Well, now that the village chief took the initiative to mention it, then they will naturally save trouble.

"Excuse me, uncle, the day after tomorrow cremated, the day after tomorrow will be buried, can you see how to arrange it? Tell us what you need, and we'll buy it. ”

On the way here, Lin Baoyue bought more than a dozen local cigarettes, which are not particularly expensive, about one hundred and fifty cigarettes, but they are already the best for rural people who only smoke a box for a few yuan.

So when she took out two and gave one to each of the village chief and the middle-aged couple, both of them were extremely surprised, and finally accepted it after pretending to shirk it.

The village chief explained in detail the specific process of the funeral here, and then told Lan Xin what he needed to do before going to the cremation the day after tomorrow, and he would also take two people to the crematorium together.

After the village chief left, Lu Yongcong sighed helplessly, "Before you came, except for the couple next door, no one from the village came, but now it's okay, the village chief is here."

That's the reality.
