Men and women eating in the courtyard

"My life is miserable~"

"It means being unfilial~"

"Let the white-haired person send the black-haired person~"

"Woooooo~"

Yan Fugui really cried. He was not wearing a filial piety on his body, but this kind of sadness cannot be exaggerated by white filial piety in the dark night.

Li Xuewu was holding his hand tightly. Listening to his scolding Yan Jiecheng, his hands felt cold.

Of course he can scold Yan Jiecheng, and he should scold him at this time. The more he scolds, the more it means that he feels sorry for his son, but it is a pity for him.

Li Xuewu patted the back of his hand and said comfortingly: "My condolences, please think more about the widow."

Yi Zhonghai came out of the hanging flower door, held Yan Fugui's arm, and reminded him: "Let Xuewu sit in the courtyard, why are you standing here?"

Yan Fugui nodded and invited Li Xuewu to go to the courtyard.

At this time, there were quite a few people sitting on the Yan family side of the front yard.

It's different from gathering together to cool off in the summer. Now we have to warm ourselves up by the fire.

The weather was already very cold at night in late September, and he wouldn't have driven the Willys if he hadn't come here.

Even so, I had to wear a military coat before driving, otherwise I could freeze my nose.

In the middle of the courtyard is a straight stove surrounded by bricks. The wood and briquettes thrown in it are burning vigorously at the moment.

Sitting around the stove were all the young and old men from the neighborhood. When they saw him entering the courtyard, they all stood up and greeted him politely.

Li Xuewu didn't want to overwhelm the guest, so he took out the cigarettes, politely called uncle, and gave them to the elders.

Everyone lit their cigarettes and sat down one after another after listening to the uncle's greeting.

There were plenty of benches in the courtyard. It could be seen that the banquet had just dispersed and people were coming and going this evening.

The Yan family is setting up a banquet tonight, and they have to invite the neighbors to the banquet and receive gift money.

Silly Zhu must have helped, otherwise he wouldn't be able to do it at this time, still wearing an apron.

Yan Fugui sat next to Li Xuewu and introduced Yan Jiecheng's situation to him with tears in his eyes.

This is the normal procedure for the host's family to talk to important visitors. Even if he doesn't say anything, Li Xuewu still has to inquire and express his concern and condolences.

Several women in the courtyard were sitting and talking with the third aunt in the main room. When a guest came, they brought out a cup of tea as a courtesy to the host.

When Qin Huairu saw that Li Xuewu was coming, she took the initiative to bring tea and took this opportunity to whisper comforting words to the third uncle.

Yi Zhonghai saw what she meant and took the initiative to help explain to Yan Fugui that the girl would leave the cabinet tomorrow and she could no longer stay here.

Yan Fugui was very grateful. At this time, no one would care about the unpleasantness the two families had had some time ago.

Qin Huairu took the initiative to help, which already left him speechless.

At this moment, he thanked Qin Huairu in a crying voice and let the uncle send Qin Huairu away.

Even though it’s a front and back yard, there are still rules that should be followed.

Everyone was sitting in the courtyard chatting, but they didn't seem to feel any sadness.

That's how things go. Everyone comes here to help and sit at night, not to help their family mourn, so where does the sadness come from.

Besides, Yan Jie has already melted into Chengdu, and he is so sad.

The old and young men sitting here were joking and laughing while talking about boring topics, without any concern for the Yan family's emotions.

Li Xuewu didn't speak much. He only replied a few words when someone took the initiative to chat with him.

The third uncle sent Qin Huairu away, turned back and continued to talk to him about Yan Jiecheng.

Li Xuewu knew what he was thinking and what his purpose was.

But it was a bit inappropriate to say this at this time, so I didn’t take up the matter.

After the first uncle came back, Li Xuewu took the initiative and asked: "If the joint defense found it, did you ask the people in the station to go and take a look?"

"I saw it, the survey conducted by Xing and his men."

Yi Zhonghai sat next to him and said: "At that time, we were guarding the first aiders, but we didn't pay attention to them."

Li Xuewu took a puff of cigarette and nodded, finally understanding the meaning of the elder's words.

In this day and age, a lot of people die, and it's such an obvious accident. How could I have carefully investigated it for you?

Especially in the middle of the night, he had drawn blood, who dared to mention it was not an accident.

Furthermore, there is no surveillance in this era. Every house is closed at night, and it is so cold. Who can go out on the road to act as a witness?

If the preliminary survey is an accident, then it is an accident. Whoever says it is not can find evidence by himself.

"Has someone from the factory union come?"

"coming"

Yi Zhonghai further explained: "Director Liu of the trade union came and asked for the opinions of your third uncle. In accordance with the wishes of the family, some funeral expenses were paid, so they will not go through it."

"Well, that's fine, it saves you the trouble."

Li Xuewu nodded, blew out a puff of smoke, and asked: "Will you leave tomorrow morning?"

"Well, I said hello to the cemetery in advance."

Yi Zhonghai's voice was also a little tired. He continued to help after returning from work.

Last night Yan Fugui was not at home. He directed the boys to set up the funeral canopy and arranged for the Yan family to mourn and burn paper to prepare for the funeral. He never rested.

Tonight the Yan family was setting up a banquet, and he served as a substitute. The neighbors had just left, so they had time to sit down.

"You have worked hard"

Li Xuewu nodded and praised him, and then reminded: "Pay attention to your health. You have to rest early today. Just let the boys do the wake-up call."

As he spoke, he motioned to the other side of the house and said, "If you are useful, ask them for help."

"Okay, if anything happens, everyone will help with maintenance."

Yi Zhonghai sighed and said: "These are not outsiders, they are from the same courtyard, everyone extends their hands."

He also knew that Li Xuewu was busy with work, so it would be a great honor to be able to take the time to come over at this time.

Moreover, he was very helpful when rescuing Ge Shuqin yesterday. Without Li Xuewu's call, how many of his Yan Jiecheng would be able to transfer blood from the factory hospital?

Why did Yan Fugui take the initiative to go out to meet Li Xuewu after hearing Silhu's reminder?

He must remember this.

In front of Yan Fugui, Yi Zhonghai kept talking to Li Xuewu about this matter, and everyone reached out to help.

After hearing what he said, the men sitting in the courtyard stopped talking and listened to him.

The first was Shen Guodong, who took the initiative to drive Ge Shuqin to the hospital when he heard the third aunt shouting.

Secondly, Liu Guangtian and several boys in the back room took the initiative to help bring Yan Jiecheng back.

Liu Guangtian handled the cremation procedures, personnel procedures and trade union procedures.

Others helped to set up the memorial shed and clean up the place.

In the afternoon, the men in the neighborhood helped with the burial and cremation.

Tonight, we had to help the fire room and the busy people again, and everyone had a lot of hard work.

Yan Fugui sat aside and listened, knowing that the first uncle was repaying him an account, a favor account.

After talking about Yan Jiecheng, he talked about Ge Shuqin again.

Yi Zhonghai gestured to the darkly lit side room and said, "Because there is a funeral tomorrow morning, Guodong is the one to pick it up. The adults and children are all here."

Li Xuewu glanced over there in slight surprise. He had just been rescued from a massive hemorrhage, but he dared to take him back?

Yi Zhonghai saw Li Xuewu's eyes and shook his head slightly, signaling him not to ask.

"Your mother brought fifteen eggs, Huairu brought fifteen eggs, and your aunt brought fifteen eggs. This is considered to be a complete preparation of all the things needed to produce milk."

Yi Zhonghai continued: "The malted milk that Zhu Zhu brought and the milk powder that his second uncle's family brought were not easy. They all tried their best."

"Yes Yes"

Yan Fugui sighed and said gratefully: "I know, I know."

"As you said when learning martial arts, think more about the widow."

Yi Zhonghai patted the back of Yan Fugui's hand and said comfortingly: "Taking good care of those two girls will help Xie Cheng leave with peace of mind."

"yes"

Yan Fugui nodded in agreement, his back slumping wherever he sat.

He has been stingy all his life and has not made many friends, let alone any relatives.

After living in this courtyard for so many years, I can barely maintain neighborly relations.

Otherwise, the two brothers were keeping watch outside the gate, and no one came to help.

Li Xuewu just sat for a while and saw that the lights were on at home, and his mother and sister-in-law were sitting in the room, probably waiting for him.

After listening to what the elder said, he stood up and asked about the gift bill.

Yi Zhonghai motioned to the main room and led Li Xuewu in to write.

The person who receives and writes the gift accounts is the second uncle. He has been sitting here. There are also people who come to write the accounts in the evening, not many.

Seeing Li Xuewu enter the room, he took the initiative to stand up and say hello.

Although Li Xuewu is the boy in the yard, he is now also a senior cadre in the factory. He does not dare to neglect now.

Li Xuewu wasn't too polite to him. There were so many women in the room that it was quite a fuss.

First, he ordered fifty cents and put it on the table as a memorial ceremony.

There is an old saying in Sijiucheng that it is more beautiful to have more gifts for red events and less for white events.

Li Xuewu paid one yuan for red events and fifty cents for white events.

It’s not that he is lavish, nor is he pretending to be rich.

But his current identity is here. Yan Jiecheng is a factory employee and a neighbor in the courtyard. As the deputy secretary, he has to be a little more handsome and good-looking than others.

Of course, if you do this in other people's homes, it's different when you go to a relative's home, and it can't be based on your job position.

After the second uncle put his name on the gift account, Li Xuewu ordered another fifty cents and put it on the table.

This share belongs to his father Li Shun. If the families are separated, the gift accounts must be written separately.

My father is not at home, so it is impossible for my mother to come over and write the accounts. This kind of thing must be done by a man in the family.

I'll leave it to those without men, but it's really not good-looking. Even the Jia family in the Zhongyuan is written as a joke.

Why did you also write 50 cents to Li Shun?

Instead of the other neighbor's two cents?

Also, why is father Li Shun’s name written after him?

Because if I wrote about my father Li Shun first, I would have to write about the gift money of 20 cents, and then the neighbors would follow me.

But because of his status, he had to pay fifty cents for the gift account, which put his father down in the gift account, which was not good-looking and made people laugh.

Both of them are fifty cents. If Li Shun writes in the front and suppresses the front, they will not look good.

So I wrote my own first, and then my father Li Shun's. This obvious reverse order can also remind the host family and the neighbors who came to see the gift account that the Li family followed the due etiquette and took care of all aspects.

Insights into worldly matters are knowledge, and understanding of human feelings are articles.

Chinese people pay attention to etiquette, especially in such trivial matters, the more you can see a person's work style and etiquette quality.

You said you deserved it for spending an extra 30 cents, but you are more awesome than your father.

This matter has to be left to others, and they are eager to have more of it. Who doesn't want his son to be more successful than himself!

After writing about the father Li Shun, there is no need to write about the eldest brother and the third child.

Because the eldest brother is the pensioner son and shares the same relationship with his father.

The third child was still in school and unmarried, so it was not considered a family separation, and the Li family did not go through the family separation procedures for Li Xuecai.

So Li Xuewu only wrote about himself and his father.

After watching the second uncle finish writing, Li Xuewu said a few words of relief to the third aunt who was waiting to salute, and then followed the first uncle out the door.

Normally, Yan Jiecheng's son should be the one to answer the ceremony at this time.

But unfortunately, his child is only on his second day and cannot do this.

So his parents could only do the ceremony on his behalf.

Of course, Li Xuewu couldn't let the other party do this salute. After all, the person he wanted to call Third Aunt was not of the same generation.

After coming out of the main room, he spoke to a few gentlemen and the third uncle, and then Li Xuewu went home.

Liu Yin had been waiting for him at the door of the outer room for a long time. When she saw her son coming in, she first used the broom on the kang to scratch his body, and then let him enter the inner room.

Only sister-in-law Zhao Yafang was in the room. When she saw Li Xuewu entering the room, she asked proactively: "Why did you talk for so long?"

They were sitting in the room, looking across the window very clearly.

"The third uncle asked me to talk about this matter, and the first uncle said it again."

Li Xuewu sat on the stool beside the kang, looked at his mother and asked, "Were you not scared last night?"

"Why are you scared? I knew it when Ge Shuqin was fussing about it. People in the courtyard came back and made a fuss again. What time was it when they stopped?"

Liu Yin introduced: "Your sister-in-law and I couldn't sleep and were lying on the kang talking when we heard someone knocking on the door outside."

"The zone defense called the big man and made another fuss. I knew at that moment that something happened to the big man on the opposite side."

"Tell me, my heart is pounding and I haven't slept for half the night."

Liu Yin pursed her lips and waved her hands and said, "I won't be able to sleep at all when the uncle calls for people to set up the funeral shed and clean up the outside."

"When I came out, my grandma told me to remind you to go to the back room to sleep so you don't get scared."

Li Xuewu stretched out his coat and said: "There are always people in the upper courtyard tonight. If you can't stop sleeping, you'd better go to the back."

"Yes, thought of it"

Liu Yin nodded and said: "Yuxiu also said that he was going to sleep in the east courtyard, but it was outside across the courtyard wall. It was so noisy that everyone went to the backyard."

"They have already gone to the backyard first. I am waiting for you. Your sister-in-law said you would accompany me."

"What are you waiting for me to do? My dad has finished writing the accounts, can I still remember what happened?"

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "If you feel sleepy, go to bed quickly. Qin Jingru's place will be lively tomorrow morning, so I still can't sleep well."

Liu Yin was really tired. She nodded and asked, "Are you going to stay for a while? Remember not to go home directly!"

"I know, don't worry"

Li Xuewu stood up and said, "I'm going to go around the regiment's headquarters right now."

"Go, kid!"

Liu Yin's words meant that you should follow the old man's advice. There is a lot of trouble in private matters, and there are pregnant women and children at home. Don't go directly to your own home and go somewhere else.

Li Xuewu was good at understanding what his mother meant, but he performed beyond the norm.

Didn't you say that there is a dirty thing following me? I'll take it to the Weisan Regiment's station and wipe it out!

Li Xuewu was afraid that his mother and daughter would be scared, so he waited in the house and thought of sending them to the backyard.

Liu Yin helped Zhao Yafang to the ground and whispered softly: "You have done something wrong. I just gave birth to a baby and there is still heavy bleeding. I will have to suffer in the confinement period."

"Stop talking about this, it makes me feel uncomfortable."

Zhao Yafang waved her hand and did not ask her mother-in-law to talk anymore. She watched Li Xuewu look over, frowned and explained: "It was the third aunt who disliked Ge Shuqin for giving birth to a daughter, and clamored to take her back and send Yan Jiecheng to her."

"What's going on with their family?!"

Liu Yin curled her lips in dissatisfaction and said, "It's so bad. Let's see if retribution comes."

Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were very angry. Obviously, what they were talking about to Li Xuewu was not the first time they had mentioned this.

Li Xuewu just frowned. This was not his family's business and he had nothing to do with it.

After his mother and sister-in-law finished cleaning up, he sent them to the backyard.

He wandered around the backyard, walked out again, went to the door, said hello to the third uncle and the first uncle, and left through the hanging flower gate.

Maybe because they were tired from helping, the boys didn't read today. The lights in the east room were dark and they went to bed early.

Li Xuewu ignored Shazhu's greeting, gestured outside, nodded and walked out.

When I got to the gate, I took a look at the memorial shed under the screen wall. I didn't pay attention to it, got in the car and left.

What he told his mother was to go to the regiment camp, but he didn't bother with it. He didn't believe that any unclean person would dare to follow him.

If he really believed this, he shouldn't have gone to the graveyard to catch crickets in the first place. If there really was such a thing, the people behind him would have formed two companies long ago.

What kind of bullshit and snake god is a joke in the face of absolute courage and strength.

But Li Xuewu is a joke in front of the cold wind...

He wasn't afraid of this or that. He was already freezing when he got home.

——

On the first day of October, before the sun rose, Li Xuewu had already quietly gotten up.

Gu Ning moved, looked at Li Xuewu in the darkness, blinked, and reminded: "Put on more clothes."

"Did I wake you up?"

Li Xuewu smiled, pointed to the clothes he had prepared last night, and said, "I'll put them on when I go out, and you can continue to sleep."

After saying that, he hugged a pile of clothes on the bed stool and walked out of the room.

As the month progressed, Gu Ning also became sleepy, especially after not going to work and having to sleep more at noon.

Li Xuewu turned on the light in the study room and glanced at the time on the wall. It was only a little after five o'clock.

After tidying up for a while, it took more than 20 minutes to get to the courtyard. The time was just right.

He was very obedient and put on a pair of long johns first, with the trousers tucked into thick socks.

I wore a pair of woolen trousers over my autumn trousers, and a pair of loose trousers over my woolen trousers.

That's not all yet. I'm wearing a shirt and a sweater, and I plan to wear that military coat later.

What is February and August? Dressing randomly!

If you don’t wear enough clothes in the morning, you’ll freeze to death; if you wear too much clothes at noon, you’ll get too hot!

Li Xuewu has experienced many things and knows that it is extremely cold during funerals, so there is nothing wrong with wearing more clothes.

This has nothing to do with whether you are urinary or not. Even if you have a face like the Lord of Hell, at the time of the funeral, when the sun has not yet risen, you should still be cold.

Li Xuewu originally planned to find out the stuffiness in his hands, but then he thought about it and decided it wasn't a good idea, so he put on a pair of factory-issued labor protection gloves.

But before he even drove off the street in front of his house, he regretted it.

By the time we got to the courtyard, my intestines were about to turn green.

My whole body is so cold, my hands and face are so cold.

There is nothing you can do about eyes on your face, you have to look at the road.

He wore his winter cotton hat inside out, so his forehead and ears weren't cold, and then he wore a cotton mask, but the area around his eyes was cold.

But what about the hands!

I really need a pair of hands!

"What happened?"

Silly Zhu and the others stood at the gate smoking and spanking. When they saw Li Xuewu parked his car and came over, he grinned and looked at the excitement on his face.

Li Xuewu didn't answer and directly put his hand down his neck.

"Hi~~ah! Nest grass!"

Silly Zhu's voice almost scared Yan Jiecheng out of his wits in the shed.

The men watching the excitement all started laughing.

The people standing at the door talking now are all in their twenties and thirties.

People from the older generation, or those who are older, are all sitting in the yard.

There were still valuables burning in the mourning shed, but Yan Jiefang was the only one looking at the candles.

It doesn't matter, they are the only two brothers who can do the job, but they just have to change things.

However, the wake is not only held by family members, but also by relatives, friends, and even close neighbors.

From last night to now, Li Xuewu has seen these two brothers busy at work, and has not heard anyone come to watch the funeral. This shows that the popularity of the third uncle is really "good".

There were three boys in the family. Even though Yan Jiekang was younger, there were still Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang.

Which family in the surrounding area has nothing to do? If the third uncle asked one of the two eldest sons in the family to help with the wake, he would not be able to get to this point today.

If you want to say that the two kids in the family are busy, or are afraid of this, then just give them a little more gift money than others, and then ask them to help light the fire, make firework, etc., that's not the case.

This means that today must have its beginning.

Only when something happens can you tell whether you did what you did or not.

Li Xuewu came here last night, and seeing how careless these men were, it was obvious that they did it on purpose.

It was all for the sake of the neighbors and the hard work of the elders that they didn’t leave.

Otherwise, as soon as the table is dispersed, everyone will also be dispersed.

To put it bluntly, if the master is really alone at night, his face will be really ugly.

Li Xuewu didn't know how his family helped with such things.

But come to think of it, my father is a doctor, and he was eager to help a neighbor who had a headache.

Another thing is that the eldest brother would not go to such a thing. The third child is timid. It was his father who should have gone there by himself when he was in the army.

If he sits a little longer at night and gets more money as a gift, no one will care about it.

Only the neighbors around here owed favors to Li Shun, and Li Shun really didn't owe favors to others.

Li Xuewu looked at the remains of the firecracker at the door and knew that it had collapsed and that everyone in the courtyard should wake up.

He didn't go into the courtyard either. It was noisy and noisy, so it wasn't a good place to go.

"I forgot to ask last night."

Li Xuewu looked at Shazhu and said, "Have you agreed on who will go first between the Qin family's red affairs and their family's white affairs?"

"I don't know. I think it was decided through discussion between the First Master and the others."

Silly Zhu scratched his chin and said, "Whoever leaves first can do this."

He thought about it again, looked at the people around him and asked, "Hey, brothers, what time do the Qin family of the Central Court say the wedding will take place?"

"A little bit"

The seventh child in the courtyard smiled and replied: "We all have to go out before the sun comes up."

"But that's okay"

Lao Qi shrugged his shoulders again and said: "Sister Qin came here yesterday to tell the third uncle about this matter. The first uncle also said that according to the old etiquette, Hong will leave first."

Silly Zhu nodded, looked at Li Xuewu, curled his lips, and said, "I heard a lot of arguing."

As he spoke, he motioned to the door behind him and said, "The third uncle still wants to put a white couplet on the door, but Sister Qin won't let me."

Lao Qi also came over and said, "The third aunt heard this and almost started a riot, but everyone in the courtyard said no one was allowed to post it, so she stopped her."

"Fuck! Don't think about anything else besides red things on this door."

Silly Zhu curled his lips and said: "This is a rule that has been established a long time ago. You made it clear, how can other people leave?"

"Hey~! Don't mention it!"

Lao Qi is a bad talker, both of them have rented words, and they have to talk while sleeping.

"Yesterday, we negotiated for a long time about this white matter and red matter. I persuaded this family and that family, and finally settled it."

"backyard!"

Lao Qi gestured behind him with his thumb and curled his lips and said, "Qin Huairu's second uncle and second aunt are here. Her second uncle didn't drink. If he had, yesterday would have been even more lively!"

"Why don't you think it's a big deal?"

Silly Zhu glared at him and said, "It's better not to talk about this matter in their family."

"Yes yes yes~"

Lao Qi smiled and said jokingly to Silly Zhu: "Didn't I think of your ex-father-in-law, so I kept talking too much."

"Go! Get out!"

When Silly Zhu heard what he said, he scolded him funny.

Yesterday, Qin Huairu and his second uncle finished their wedding at home and came to the city to see off their daughter for marriage.

When they met Silly Zhu, both of them were still a little embarrassed.

Silly Zhu almost became his son-in-law, and he almost became Silly Zhu's father-in-law.

Now that they met, Qin Huairu introduced them and talked to each other, which was like reversing the past.

My father-in-law didn't know which bad boy in the courtyard called him out first, so he looked for opportunities to tease Silly Zhu.

Li Xuewu also smiled and watched the excitement. He was just idle, just to keep up the time.

He didn't come to the Yan family's dinner yesterday. One reason was that he didn't like it, and the other was that it was inconvenient.

But today he had to go to the Han family's table. He was the leader of Han Jiankun and the actual matchmaker between the two.

Of course, he was young and didn't want to let his identity slip. The matchmaker chose Qin Huairu.

She is a relative of Qin Jingru and a colleague of Han Jiankun. Qin Huairu's status is neither high nor low, and she sounds good and looks good.

After Sha Zhu scolded Lao Qi, he turned around and smiled at Li Xuewu: "Let me tell you something interesting. Qin Huairu placed a tight curse on her second uncle."

"If you say you go to see your bride off and drink a drop of wine, she will be cruel."

He said this and made gestures with his hands. He was still laughing about the last time Qin Huairu beat her second uncle.

When Li Xuewu heard what Qin Huairu said about this matter, she was really anxious.

After finally marrying off Qin Jingru who was almost defeated, her second uncle almost got married to Huang because of his strength.

The slap was right at the door of Han's house, and it was meant to be seen by others.

Otherwise, why should the Han family take her words as accurate? This is to establish prestige and credibility.

The Han family was also shocked when they saw how powerful Qin Huairu was and started beating people.

Even if the in-laws are nothing, they are just drunk and causing trouble. If they really say something, there will be slap marks on their faces.

If Qin Huairu goes to make peace again, the Han family will have nothing to say.

Here, her second uncle apologized and regretted after sobering up, but he really didn't mention the slap.

He does know what kind of virtue he is, but as long as he drinks, he can't control himself.

This time he also understood that he had no face with his in-laws and had to ask Qin Huairu to make the decision.

Especially yesterday, when she saw her daughter, she made Qin Jingru cry.

It was rare that there were a few people in this courtyard who took the initiative to provide them with material to talk about after tea and meals, so they plucked them hard.

Qin Jingru, who was once the most stylish material provider, is about to get married. If she doesn't get married, she will have no chance.

Li Xuewu glanced at Si Zhu with a smile, knowing that this boy was unbalanced again.

He had pursued a girl who was not interested in him before, but now he found a young driver who was willing to spend money on her.

As for him, he is married and is about to have a baby. He will feel better if he stands here and enjoys his pleasure.

Li Xuewu didn't say anything about him. Men are like this, eating from the bowl and looking at what others are eating.

Even if it is known that the technician No. 28 who often goes to Red Romance returns home to get married, some people will be filled with sadness, let alone the ex-girlfriend who did not get it.

They stood at the door and talked. Yi Zhonghai came out and directed the boys to start cleaning up the memorial shed.

Because Yan Jiecheng died suddenly and suffered from blisters, and because people could not be accommodated at this season, he had to die early.

So his funeral scene was a bit special. There was no coffin, only an urn.

This saves a lot of trouble. Once the funeral shed is dismantled, the urn is bundled behind the bicycle and buried directly.

The person who sent the spirit to the City God's Temple didn't know whether it was because he didn't dare to play music or because he was afraid of being reported. Or it was because the third uncle was reluctant to give up money and there was no one who played or beaten.

He watched the second uncle leading brothers Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiedi, one holding the coffin and the other carrying the altar. Several other boys helped carry incense and candles and went quietly.

Send the spirit first, and then bury the body. The soul returns to heaven and the body enters the earth.

There may be different opinions and practices in different places. It's possible that the emphasis in Dongcheng is different from that in Xicheng. There's no way to tell.

The first and second uncles are in charge of these things, and they all follow this old saying that they can recall, and handle it in a flexible manner according to the specific situation of the third uncle's family.

The time was just right. When it was almost six o'clock, the mourning shed was dismantled, and the mourners there also came back.

Coincidentally, Han Jiankun and several comrades and colleagues also came to pick up the bride at this time.

According to the previously agreed upon principle of doing good things first and doing bad things later, everyone should be patient and get it done as soon as possible, Han Jiankun should be allowed to go in first to pick up people.

But things come quickly, and people drive people away. Han Jiankun and others parked their cars at the door. A few young men brought the suona and started playing, and something happened.

Han Jiankun took a look at the bicycle team for the funeral there. It was very simple, with just a few bicycles.

The urn is still on the table, and the incense and candles have not been removed yet, waiting for them to do it first.

They had to pick up Qin Jingru first, and then they would start a case here, which would be regarded as the "fate" between the two families.

Han Jiankun first said hello to Li Xuewu and politely handed cigarettes to several people at the door.

He didn't know what these people did. It was hard to leave them behind by standing with the leader and handing him cigarettes.

Li Xuewu patted him on the shoulder, told him not to be polite, and walked in quickly.

Han Jiankun entered the courtyard with a few people who were playing suona, and the Yan family was supporting Ge Shuqin, who was wearing Baixiao, and holding the child wrapped in white cloth, as they left.

Good guy, everyone watching the excitement is stupid.

Han Jiankun was also stunned for a moment. Standing outside the gate, Li Xuewu heard the suona sound drop into a trance and pause.

Qin Huairu had been waiting at the second door for a long time. When she saw him coming in and seeing the third aunt supporting Ge Shuqin coming out, she frowned.

Isn't this adding to the trouble? It was agreed upon yesterday, the red ones first, then the white ones. Why do you let Ge Shuqin, who is wearing a white filial piety, come out now?

Even if Ge Shuqin is asked to hold the child and break the pot, she still has to wait until everything is over here.

She was just about to call Han Jiankun, but the third aunt over there started crying and howling, her voice almost suppressed the sound of the suona.

She howled in mourning, and the child started crying when it was cold, and the courtyard became lively.

Qin Huairu jumped up and down anxiously, and quickly waved to Han Jiankun, motioning for him to enter the middle courtyard.

Han Jiankun also calmed down and walked inside with his brothers without even looking at the Yan family.

I received the letter from here last night. I knew it was settled, but I didn't expect something went wrong this morning.

On his special day today, he couldn't quarrel with others, let alone talk about it at this time. Here, he could only listen to his aunt Qin Huairu.

So even if I feel uncomfortable, I have to complete the marriage first.

As he entered the courtyard to pick up his bride, someone had already gone to persuade the third aunt to be patient and not to affect the middle courtyard.

She didn't know if she didn't have a good rest last night, or she was overly sad, or she couldn't stop crying because she was watching other people's affairs and her family's affairs.

Yan Fugui stood aside and said nothing, and Yi Zhonghai's persuasion was of no use.

Many people persuaded me and started talking about it.

I don’t know who said what, or which sentence was wrong, which made the third aunt quit and start playing tricks.

"My son is dead!~"

"My son is dead!"

"You are just bullying my son, an orphan and a widower~"

…

She threw away the people who were trying to persuade her, stood in the courtyard and began to curse. One moment she said that others were bullying her, and the other moment she said why her son had to suffer and let others go first!

What she said later became more and more unpleasant, and no one in the courtyard could stand listening to her.

When those who were trying to persuade her saw her acting, no one came forward, and all of them walked away.

And the people who were helping her at home also stood aside, for fear of getting into trouble.

Yi Zhonghai looked at Yan Fugui squatting on the ground holding his head and not talking, and didn't know what to do.

It was difficult for him to go to the third aunt, and he couldn't find any woman in the courtyard to go to her or persuade her.

Especially when Ge Shuqin was kneeling there with the child in her arms still crying. This scene made him feel sad and helpless.

Why was he so busy? In the end, he couldn't bear the torment of the third aunt.

The people in the courtyard also noticed that she was acting crazy and acting evil. She was angry about her son's death. They knew that they blamed themselves for this, and they also knew that the people in the courtyard secretly cared about their family and laughed at their family.

At this moment, he is deliberately looking for trouble and looking for a blowbag.

Qin Huairu was the one who was bullied?

Is he a soft persimmon used as a punching bag for others?

Is her sister getting married today, or is she getting married at her house? She was already very upset when she met Bai Shi, but now she heard the third aunt making trouble, and her anger also rose.

"Say it again!"

Qin Huairu arrived at the third gate at some unknown time. Now she was standing on the steps of the third gate, pointing at the third aunt and scolding her.

"What did I discuss with your family last night? I said all the good things to say, and I sent eggs and thanked you for the favor!"

"What do you want to do!"

Qin Huairu didn't have a good face at all, and he didn't get used to her temper, so he just came all over.

"If you want to find trouble, come to me! Wait until I send the girl away first, and I'll settle the score with you!"

After scolding the third aunt, she pointed at the third uncle and started scolding: "Don't be such a coward. No one else will tell you what's going on in your family. Don't you feel ashamed!"

"What am I ashamed of!"

"What am I ashamed of!"

The third aunt can say that Qin Huairu is not as loud as her, not as smart as her, and not as sharp as her tongue.

At this moment, he jumped and pointed at Qin Huairu and cursed: "Please tell me clearly, I will tear your mouth off!"

"If I really want to say it, I would be embarrassed."

"Pooh!"

Qin Huairu really spat out her saliva, pointed at the Yan family and cursed: "I don't care why Yan Jiecheng died. Just wait until he comes to you to demand money and life!"

"Look at this orphan and widower, how dare you say that!"

She pointed at Ge Shuqin and the child and said, "I just gave birth to a child who was bleeding heavily. I brought her back to send that damn devil away. Do you want her to be buried with her or what?"

Ge Shuqin's face was not only pale now, but she was trembling while holding her child.

She listened to all Qin Huairu's scolding words, and now she didn't say anything back, but turned around and kowtowed to Qin Huairu.

Just like that, when the third aunt was about to fight back, Qin Huairu could not say anything anymore.

Whatever the third aunt said, she took it as fart. Ge Shuqin kowtowed, and she had to put aside any grievances.

The widow of the Yan family has the most respect at this time, and can't be bullied the least.

Qin Huairu scolded the two elders of the Yan family for not being able to say a word to Ge Shuqin.

So she is feeling uncomfortable now.

Behind him, Han Jiankun was about to follow Qin Jingru. The third aunt was blocking the door, how could she leave?

Yi Zhonghai saw that things were not going well, and when the third aunt saw Qin Huairu stopped talking, she started scolding her again, thinking she had won.

"Where's Xuewu? Is he here?"

Yi Zhonghai turned around and saw Sha Zhu standing next to him with a smile and watching the fun attentively, so he quickly asked.

He just listened to Li Xuewu and others joking at the door. At this time, the matter was serious and he had to find Li Xuewu to solve it.

"Come on, come on, I'm smoking outside the door."

Silly Zhu waved his hand as if you should go quickly and don’t delay me from watching the excitement.

Yi Zhonghai originally wanted him to call him, but now he could only do it himself.

He ran outside the door, but saw Li Xuewu quietly walking towards the car, and quickly shouted: "Xuewu! Don't leave!"

Li Xuewu heard some movement behind him and hurried to the car. He said without looking back: "Master, I suddenly remembered that there is something urgent at home. I'm going back first!" (End of Chapter)
