Seventy Little Heads

The two planned to go to a coastal city to eat seafood in Qiuli, but they couldn't go in the end.Because Li Si called, Goudan's powerful grandma, Mrs. Li passed away.

"Why is it so sudden? I haven't heard of illness before."

"My father said that he was full of anger and cursed people yesterday. Everyone said that he is in such good health that he may live to be 91 years old. But when he woke up this morning, he was already out of breath, probably in the middle of the night."

"Pass away without illness or disaster, without pain, that is old age and death." Life, old age, sickness and death, no one can change, old death is also a blessing, compared to her, the dog's grandfather is a bit worse sin.

"Is this old lady almost eighty?" Wang Xuan asked after thinking about it.

"It's about the same. My father is the fourth eldest, and he is over 50 years old."

Wang Xuan nodded, this is also joy and sorrow.

The two packed their luggage and took the plane back directly, otherwise they would have been buried by the time they arrived by train.That's it, it was late at night when the two returned home from the provincial capital.

Li Si is obviously very sad. Although he has not received much love from his parents in this life, parents are parents.I don't feel like I'm still alive, but when I'm gone, I can't think of any bad aspects, which are their only few good things.

Goudan patted Li Si on the back. He didn't know how to comfort this honest man. To be honest, he wasn't that sad.But after all, death is like a lamp going out, so it's hard to say anything.

The Yao family that Li Sixin married saw the two young men coming back, and they were very active in preparing food for them. They also boiled a large pot of hot water on a large iron pot. The weather turned cold, and the two of them felt tired after taking a hot bath. Most of the time I went.

Goudan and Wang Xuan were having dinner, so Li Si told them about the funeral and what to do tomorrow, he told them all.Yao Shi didn't interrupt when Grandpa San was talking, he worked quietly and didn't come forward to make trouble.

After the two of them had finished eating, they stepped forward to clean up the dishes actively. Goudan and Wang Xuan rushed to clean up, which made Goudan and Wang Xuan very embarrassed.

Goudan and Wang Xuan sincerely thanked her, Yao was at a loss and waved his hands again and again, "It should."

But when I got back to my room, I was so happy.Muttering to Li Si, "The two boys of your family are really good-looking talents. I have never seen such a decent person. They are more noble than the young master of the previous landlord's family."

I used to take care of my ex-husband and his children, but I never got a word of thanks. It was a natural enjoyment, and I complained that she was not careful enough.

Now that I think about it, I really feel that now is the life of a human being. I was worried before, and I was worried that Li Si's son would hate him. If he asked her to drive her away, Li Si would not fight against his son.

Now she is a little relieved, at least her two stepson accepted everything she did, and thanked her when it was over, she didn't expect people to treat her as her own mother, her own mother was still alive.That's it.

Compared with such a good life, doing some work is nothing, in order to continue to stay and live a good life with Li Si, she has to wink and be diligent, so that people can't feel that she is eating nothing.Don't say what shouldn't be said, don't ask what shouldn't be asked, look, she is doing the right thing.The two children also said "thank you" to her.

She has never heard anyone thank her in her life, and scholars are different.

After eating and drinking, Goudan and Wang Xuan went back to the room and murmured, "This quilt and bed sheet should have been washed and dried, and there is no dust or musty smell in the room. Did your stepmother do it?"

"Well, my dad said it. Didn't we leave the keys with him when we went to Kyoto? He called me earlier and asked if Mrs. Yao could clean up the room. I agreed after thinking about it." There is nothing particularly important in the house, Those important things are put in 'baby'.

Li Si was worried that his son would come back at some point, so he cleaned up after a while, no, it came in handy.

Wang Xuan thought to himself: That's no wonder, there will be a smell in the house if no one lives there for three to five months, you have to clean the dust frequently and open the windows for ventilation, otherwise it will be moldy and damp.

"Go to sleep, I guess there are a lot of things to do tomorrow."

The weather was really cool early in the morning, just as they were sleeping soundly, Li Si started knocking on the door outside, "God, Xiao Xuan, wake up." The two of them could be said to be asleep, and Li Si started to knock on the door. Four cried out.

I could only rub my sleepy eyes and get up, wash my face with warm water, and I felt much more awake.

Li Si said: "Eat something first, I don't think there will be much time to eat today. You were supposed to go to the wake yesterday, but Dad thought you were too late and too tired to sleep at home. Go early today. "

The house lights were still on while they ate breakfast.You must know that it is only autumn now, not winter yet, and the dawn is not too late, but it is still possible to see the road with the lights on, which shows that they got up early enough.

Pushing away from the yard, the outside of the courtyard wall was foggy, and things could not be seen clearly at a distance.

"Did it rain in the middle of the night last night? The ground is wet."

"When an old man leaves, it will rain. It's God's kindness that makes it easy to dig the old man's cave." Li Sibian said.

Goudan originally saw that the sky was still dark and foggy, but when he heard what Li Si said, he suddenly felt cold on his skin and shivered.

Wang Xuan looked at it, "Brother Goudan, are you cold?"

"Yes, a little bit. The weather is getting colder every day, and it will still be a little cold sooner or later." Li Si heard that his son was cold, and hurriedly asked Yao Shi to go to his closet to take out his own clothes for the two of them to put on.

"Put on and put on. These are dad's clothes. They are clean. You didn't bring thick clothes back this time. The original clothes in that house were not washed or dried. They didn't keep warm and smelled." So I cleaned up the house and the kang. The quilt flyer, the clothes Yao did not touch.

This is Li Si's long-sleeved jacket, the old Chinese tunic suit, black and bulky. Although it is very rustic, it doesn't match the two big guys, but it is also suitable.Compared with the current situation, it is better to dress like this.

It is probably the cloth he mailed back before, and Li Si asked Mingguang and his sisters-in-law to make it.

When Ye San arrived at the Li family's old house, all the Li family members who were guarding the spirit woke up rubbing their eyes, and it seemed that they all went to bed in the middle of the night.There is no way to criticize this kind of thing. After all, the living still have to live. It cannot be said that they have to kneel and watch overnight in the mourning hall like in ancient times.

Seeing Fourth Master Li coming over, they all greeted each other.

"When did Goudan come back? It's enough to think that you will be late."

"Yesterday, my father rushed back after calling, and he didn't get home until midnight."

"Hey, even if you can't make it back, there's nothing you can do. People are not birds, and they can fly back. Besides, this old lady didn't have any warning, and she suddenly got old. No one else was mentally prepared." That's the reason.

In the past, when ordinary people couldn't take a plane, they relied on crowded trains. From receiving the news to coming back, it took a few days to get back.There is no way to blame it, after all, who would have thought of such a thing.

If you should kowtow, if you should cry, it's over, as a grandson, you have to go with others to dig a hole for the old man.Everyone helps each other in this kind of thing, and the young and middle-aged people in the village, under the guidance of experienced old people, do their best.

Although it was in broad daylight, I don't know how many ancestors were buried in the ancestral tomb in the past. Some of them were still cared for, and the mounds were still there, and some of them could not be found for a long time.This requires an old man with memory to guide the way. Otherwise, if you choose the wrong place and dig up the dormant ancestors of another family, you will have revenge.

When Goudan looked at these places, he felt hairy in his heart. In broad daylight, he felt that the autumn sun was not strong enough. Fortunately, there were many people, so he felt okay.

Wang Xuan knew that Brother Goudan was kind of mean to these things, he had been like this since he was a child, and he didn't know that Brother Goudan, who was not afraid of anything, was afraid of such illusory things.

My own is a doctor, true materialism, of course, sometimes thinking about encountering the "remnant soul of the temple master" when I was a child makes him a little suspicious, but, after all, such things are rare in the world.

But Wang Xuan is not afraid of these things, otherwise how could he be a doctor.

It was not until the afternoon that things were busy.

On the third day, the funeral will be held at the time calculated by the elders in the clan, so Goudan and Wang Xuan can only stay in the old house on the second night.

Although the light is on, the light bulb is really not very bright. Goudan even connected a wire and pulled it out of the house, and installed the light bulb so that you can see things outside. It is also convenient to go to the toilet and do things outside. more convenient.

The brightness is suddenly increased, and people are not so afraid.

No need to sleep, Goudan asked someone to go to the canteen to buy a few decks of cards, and the juniors at the Li family's night watch all gathered together to play cards and stay up for the time.Mrs. Li has quite a few grandchildren, plus the descendants of the clan who are very close to each other in the clan, there are really many people.

It wasn't a difficult night, but Goudan and Wang Xuan felt very tired and had done a lot of work during the day, and now they felt sore all over, and wanted to take a hot bath and sleep quickly.

…………………………………………………………..

When everything was finished, Goudan and Wang Xuan decided not to return to Kyoto for the time being, and stayed in their hometown for a few more days.By the way, I spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with Li Si at home. Li Si's depressed face for a few days finally cleared up. He hasn't celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival with his son for many years. Although it can't be too lively, the family is different after all with his son.

Those friends and partners who have been around for many years also gathered at Goudan's house, which made Goudan's house very lively.

Da Zhuang also asked Goudan to go around the factory. After all, he is the boss, and he has not been here for a long time, so he has to show his face when he finally returns home.

The dog egg also agreed.

Now the factory is no longer the grass-roots team it used to be, but is managed by highly educated and flexible people.Da Zhuang and these old people still do their original jobs, but they no longer manage them. After all, their knowledge is limited.

Da Zhuang is still the head of acquisitions and inspections, he can be regarded as a small leader, and most of the others are still in their original positions.Few people will feel dissatisfied. After all, now that they have become bigger, they also know their own shortcomings.

As long as the factory is there, their jobs and income are still there.If because of their own stupidity and self-righteousness, the factory has problems and cannot keep up with the times and is eliminated, they will not only lose their jobs, but also feel sorry for their brothers and dogs.

However, Goudan also said that he believes in them the most, so please ask them to supervise the operation of the factory. If someone does something that is not good for the factory, tell him.This is a disguised check and balance on both sides.
