The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

The firecrackers in the village have not stopped since around eight o'clock in the morning, and the entire Ran family village has also mobilized. The guests who came to express their condolences had just fired off cannons at the entrance of the village. Except for Ran Hao, Yang Dongxu and others who were kneeling in front of the mourning hall, others dressed in mourning clothes began to take turns to kowtow to welcome the guests.

The helpers from the village who were kowtowing here came forward to take the cannons and fire paper from the hands of those who came to express their condolences and placed them in the open space left before.

Then the person who brought condolences first went to the place where the accounts were kept nearby, and recorded in the account book which village, which people came to express their condolences, and how many gifts were given in addition to cannons and paper.

After paying the bill, I took him to the mourning hall to express his condolences, and then took him to the Cultural Square to sit down. In this way, groups of people came and were received in groups. A group of people came and a group of people left on the flowing seats in the square in front of the village committee and the cultural square.

"Why are you here?" Ran Hao asked with surprise as he looked at the dusty Principal Wang and Li Meng.

"Forget it if you don't know. If you know, you will definitely come here to express your condolences." Principal Wang said.

He didn't know that it was Li Meng who told him about this at first, so he turned down his original arrangement and rushed over from Yanjing with Li Meng overnight.

As for how Li Meng knew, it was naturally her father who told her. Yang Dongxu has announced that the funeral ceremony will be simple. If people like Li Yihang who are out of town have this intention, they don't have to go to the countryside to go back and forth.

Everyone knows Yang Dongxu's temper, so no one disobeys him. Everyone donated some money to the Runyu Charity Fund to express their condolences.

However, they knew that Yang Dongxu would lose his temper and find other ways to express it. If Ran Hao's friends like Principal Wang and Li Meng came over, Yang Dongxu would naturally not say anything. So the two people rushed over overnight.

"Bring the paper and the cannon. Just pay 100, don't pay too much." Ran Hao reminded in a low voice.

Ran Hao was really touched when his friend came to express condolences to his uncle. It is different from those friends who want to take advantage of the Ran family, or even want to curry favor with the Yang family. Whether it is Principal Wang or Li Meng who are friends with him because of his status, after all, ordinary people are not qualified to be friends with them.

But they are not people who want to fawn over and get benefits. Instead, they get along with Ran Hao sincerely.

"I know, I asked you about the rules before coming here." Li Meng said, and Principal Wang next to him also nodded.

Neither of them is the kind of person who likes to show off without any brains. What's more, if they really want to show off, they don't dare to show off in front of Yang Dongxu. After all, their family's wealth is not comparable to others. Showing off in front of Yang Dongxu is simply stupid.

So the two of them came here in a very low-key way. They took a taxi directly after getting off the plane. They didn't drive Principal Wang at all. They always drove Cullinan and other luxury cars when they went out.

Even the clothes he was wearing were black formal clothes with no visible brand, and when he arrived at the entrance of the village, he had the foresight to inquire about the rules with people from other villages who came to express their condolences. Principal Wang also bought the cannon from a nearby store after learning the rules.

"Okay, you're busy today, so we can just follow the others. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it after you finish your work." Seeing that Ran Hao was calling someone and seemed to want to entertain the two of them alone, Principal Wang quickly stopped him.

"Yes, don't do anything special. We are just here to express our condolences and take care of you." Li Meng also said next to him.

At this time, another guest arrived, and Ran Hao said quickly, "Okay, you go with the crowd, there are people with you, please be patient if the reception is not good, we will talk about it later."

After saying that, he stepped forward again and began to kowtow to the guests. Principal Wang and Li Meng followed the crowd to offer gifts first. The gentleman who paid the bill asked them which village they were from, and Li Meng directly said that they were Ran Hao's friends.

The accounting clerk took one look at the two of them and felt they were unfamiliar, probably not from the local area, so he opened a separate page in the account book and wrote the names of the two people.

Then I followed the crowd to express condolences in front of the mourning hall, and then followed the crowd to the Cultural Square for dinner. It was the first time for both of us to attend such a funeral, so we were a little nervous.

Especially since no one knew anyone, everyone else sat at the same table as a village. Even if they were not in the same village, they all knew each other because they often moved around at home. This made the two of them somewhat awkward.

But fortunately, with the improvement of economic conditions, the people in Shiliba Village are not only more confident, but also have fewer dirty things, and even their personalities have become more enthusiastic.

After seeing the two people face to face and asking a few words, they learned that they were friends of Ran Hao and had come from out of town to express their condolences. So the people at the same table began to chat with the two people enthusiastically. When eating, they let the two of them eat first. I didn't want to drink wine and poured juice, so I didn't leave the two of them in the cold.

In this way, guests came and left one after another. By the time it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon, they were barely able to receive all the guests who came to express their condolences.

After another busy time, the helpers in the village carried the cannons and paper brought by the mourners, and the older children carried the paper horse. The paper man and other things went to the cemetery first, and a burst of firecrackers began to appear on the Ran family's side. Out of the coffin.

Some of the people who came to express their condolences did not leave after eating. The road next to the cemetery was full of people. Watching the Ran family take out the coffin was considered a farewell.

After the coffin was brought to the ground and the grave was rounded, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks never stopped. The flames were not small where horses and paper figures were burned, and a lot of fire paper was piled in front of the grave.

At about three o'clock, the mourners came back from the fields. The people who had helped before and other people in the village were called over, and the feast started again.

This time the banquet is over and the funeral is the real end. After that, the next visit to the grave will have to wait until the first seven days.

After the funeral, everyone tidied up grandpa's house. After all, grandma still has people living at home. Yang's mother and her aunt are taking turns to take grandma to live at home. Now there is only one old lady left in the house. Although the young grandpa is also in the village, it is not in the same hospital after all. Yang's mother and others are a little worried.

"Follow mom to the B\u0026B first and don't cause trouble. Tomorrow you go home for two days before dad goes back." Yang Dongxu, with a haggard face and bloodshot eyes, held his daughters Tiantian and Tangtang in his arms to comfort him, while looking at the president. Wenwu, who wanted to run around, issued a warning.

This kid is not afraid of things by nature, and within less than a day after arriving in the countryside, he started chasing the chickens and dogs in the village. It felt like a city boy suddenly came to the countryside to let himself go.

"Take care of yourself and don't be too sad. Grandpa's spirit in heaven also hopes that you can live a happy life." Bai Qian comforted her.

My man is fine in other aspects, but he is too affectionate. Every time the old man dies, it kills him half of his life.
