Chapter 278: The Punisher
Xiao An is gone! was furious, and came back angrily and asked the land lord, "I forgot to ask... In what place! ”
The land lord was stunned for a moment, "In the east of Hongshan Village, there should be a funeral." Xiao An disappeared again after listening, and in a blink of an eye he arrived at Hongshan Village, a family in Hongshan Village was really doing a funeral, and the four children were crying, Xiao An was angry when he saw these people who were pretending to cry, and he really wanted to smash these animals with one palm, but in a blink of an eye, he thought about it again, let's wait~ After all, in broad daylight, it's a bit bad to kill people when you go up~ Xiao An decided to hide his figure and see how they acted.
Xiao An hid his figure, stood in the crowd, and waited until the first seven to have a few unfilial children.
Because the second son was still on the way back, and before he arrived, the eldest son and his two younger sisters decided to be extravagant, to hold the funeral decently, and to work a lot of money, so the funeral was similar to the customs in most parts of China.
When Xiao An went, these people were burying Mrs. Li, and according to the rules, it should be that after the death of the deceased, the immediate family should put on a birthday coat for the deceased. Tie it with hemp rope at the ankle and carry a piece of jade or a coin in your mouth. The body is then placed inside the coffin.
The coffin is covered with a yellow mattress, and the corpse is covered with a white quilt, which means: paved with gold and silver, the corpse rests on a mountain-shaped pillow, and a river-shaped item is placed at the foot, which means: the head rests on the mountain, and the foot pedals on the river.
There are 7 coins and 7 cotton flowers under the body of the deceased, which means: to leave children and wealth for the next generation. After the burial, a lamp is lit in front of the coffin, and the lamp will not be extinguished until the deceased is buried in the ground, which means: the lamp is there, and I hope that the deceased can be resurrected. After the lantern was lit, the daughter of the deceased burned 9 catties and 9 taels of straw paper in front of the coffin. The burned ashes are packed with the trousers worn by the deceased before his death, and when the deceased is buried in the graveyard, they are buried together.
However, these people hastily hired someone to put the body in the coffin, and the coffin was small, and the eldest daughter-in-law said, "Cut off your foot, and cut off the place where your foot is enough." ”
The person carrying the corpse was stunned, and looked at the eldest daughter-in-law with round eyes, is this still a human? Why is it so vicious?
The eldest son said, "What are you talking nonsense~ Just interrupt, in short, you can put it in." ”
The corpse bearer was also angry with these inhuman beasts, put Mrs. Li's body into the coffin, put her head high, put it in the coffin, and said to Mrs. Li's children, "Hurry up and give money, we won't do this work." ”
The eldest daughter crossed her waist, "What?" You're leaving before the work is done? No money! ”
The corpse bearer is not an ordinary person, he has some means, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Are you sure you don't give it?" ”
The eldest daughter lifted her chin and said, "What?" You still want to hit me? You move me to try! ”
"I'll leave my words here, in less than three days!" You're going to have to beg me for money! It's not 500 dollars! After that, she turned around and left, and the younger daughter still stretched out her thumb to the eldest daughter, "The eldest sister is amazing!" That's 500 bucks! ”
The eldest daughter was proud: "Of course! ”
A few people went back to the house and wrote an obituary, Xiao An stood in the air, and smiled slightly when he saw the technique of several corpse bearers, this technique of raising the upper body of the corpse will make the descendants of the deceased rise again and again, Xiao Anxin said, "These corpse bearers are really good!" So he dedicated himself, gave the corpse bearer 500 yuan, and said to the corpse bearer, "Leave it to me here~ I will let them die a bad death." ”
The corpse bearer looked at Xiao An and thought it was a colleague, "Okay!" Remember to be ruthless! These people are inhuman! Xiao An nodded
Soon, a group of people posted obituaries on the door and called relatives and friends to attend the condolence ceremony the next morning.
The youngest daughter also went out to find someone to set up a funeral shed, which was supposed to be built at the door of the house where the coffin was located after the burial. The mourning shed is generally 3-4 meters wide and more than 2 meters high. There is a curtain hanging in the middle of the shed, and there is a word "lay" in the middle of the curtain, and there is a couplet on the left and right. In front of the curtain was a table with pictures of the dead and some offerings, incense and candles. There is also a large couplet on the left and right sides of the shed. After setting up the mourning shed, the male filial son sat on both sides of the table in the mourning shed, and the female filial son sat on both sides of the coffin in the house behind the mourning shed. ”
The next day, relatives and friends came to mourn, this is good, the eldest son, the eldest daughter, are crying like something, not to mention how sad, the younger daughter and the eldest son's wife together happily collect money, sit at the door, collect a money, pretend to remember it, and then put the money into their big purse, that happy expression, is about to be suppressed! After the youngest daughter received 1,000 yuan of gift money from a person, she looked at her purse and said to herself, "Oops~ If only I could die a few more times!" This money! Before picking it up, he sniffed it vigorously, "It's so fragrant!" At this time, the second son came back, ran to his mother's coffin in despair, and knelt on the ground with a plop, no expression, just tears kept staying... Now the eldest son saw that the second son was back, and quickly pinched the eldest daughter, only to see the eldest daughter and the eldest son rolling on the ground crying, shouting trickly, not to mention how ugly! The second son also felt a little wrong, because the day before yesterday he saw that his mother was still very healthy, why did she die? But now is not the time to investigate this, so I can only cry silently.
Xiao An really wanted to show up and explain all this to his second son, but after thinking about it, he would wait and see. In the afternoon of the next day, the eldest son and the eldest daughter took the team around the village to "report the temple" to inform the neighbors that the old man in the family had passed away, and the second son held the photo of his mother, silently, and walked forward, followed by a large number of funeral processions, the eldest son and the eldest daughter were in front of the second son, rolling all over the ground, while tearing their throats and crying! I can't wait for the whole world to know that they are filial sons and how sad they are.
After the end of the "newspaper temple", the second son knelt in front of his mother's coffin, all night, all night without saying a word, staring at his mother's photo, many memories in his mind were played back like a marquee, his mother went to sell pancakes against the scorching cold wind, came back with a high fever, and brought smoked chicken to his brothers to eat, he was reluctant to eat, so he ate some chicken feet, chicken neck, and a lot of meat were all left to his four children, and the second son thought of this, and his tears were left uncontrollably.
In the countryside, there are special people who play suona, these people play suona to blow all night, one until dawn, the eldest son and the eldest daughter and the second daughter all go to sleep in a small hotel not far from home, only the second son guards his mother's coffin until dawn.
Wake the spirit, to keep it for seven days, during which there will be sporadic people to come to mourn, the youngest daughter and her sister-in-law will stay for a while every day, collect some money, Xiao An watched for a few days, anger squeezed like a volcano, and said in his heart, "These beasts must be punished!" Certain! ”
Soon the seventh day will come, the seventh day needs their children to be there, so the brothers and sisters are in front of the coffin, the eldest daughter-in-law is hypocritical, and wants to kneel all night, how can I do it, I am not tired to death, kneeling down at more than twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, suddenly a gust of wind blew, and the lights were also flickering on and off, and the old man of Cui Suona smiled, "Several, your mother is back, I am an outsider, so I won't bother, I'll go back to drink a bowl of tea, and I'll be back in an hour." ”
The eldest daughter-in-law was a little scared for some reason, stood up suddenly, frowned and said, "Yes, yes, yes, you catch up on the old days, and I will go back for a cup of tea." As soon as the second son heard his sister-in-law say this, he suddenly stood up angrily, and slapped his sister-in-law in the face!! He roared, "Fuck! Kneel down for you!! ”
