Chapter 369: Funeral Arrangements
After sending away the five government officials, the village gate was closed again.
The women and men in the village were heartbroken, but the old village chief and other elderly people were still worried.
Fan Qiye frowned and said: "It seems that they want to see people alive or dead, so they must force us to hand over people."
The living people had to be handed over. If the corpses looked at the rude attitude of the five government officials, they would definitely be punished.
Zhang Hui said angrily: "The partiality in their words is too much!"
Fortunately, he was found out last night, otherwise after he was handed over, he would not be able to come back for revenge because of the viciousness of those gangsters and the collusion between officials and gangsters.
The old village chief said to the people in the previous circle: "We must not take it lightly. Guards and patrols must not be interrupted. Everyone, please listen to me. Don't make your own decisions!"
People who are afraid of being stupid without realizing it, and who think they are smart, are not only easy to make mistakes, but also cause problems for others. Shui Qing is already tired of managing a large village of people, and if he is angered by the people in the village, that will be really chilling!
"Don't worry, old village chief, let's just be obedient."
"If anyone doesn't listen to Sister Shui Qing, I'll be the first to cut him!"
"That's right! It's not easy for our village to get to where we are today. Last night, Fan Qian and Fan Dazhu were implicated by two idiots. If a third one comes out, then I have the intention of killing him."
She doesn't need outsiders to do anything, she wants to destroy the lazy people and idiots in the village!
"me too."
There were echoes one after another, and the old village chief and other elderly people were very satisfied.
If only they were ten years younger, they would be able to help with the work now. But if they can't help, they can only try not to cause trouble.
Several people told Shui Qing to rest well, and then they went home tremblingly on crutches.
Fortunately, Shui Qing slept in the first half of the night last night, but he didn't rest until noon in the second half of the night, and he was indeed a little tired.
After explaining the precautions to everyone, she did not go home directly, but went to her eldest uncle's house.
Fan Jin saw Shui Qing coming, stepped forward to greet him, and asked in a low voice: "Why don't you go home and sleep for a while? I'll just keep you here."
The eldest brother's house was a mess, and there was blood everywhere. Shui Qing worked hard here without even a place to rest.
"My mother-in-law's body is not yet cold. There are so many things going on in the village ahead that I can't get away from it. I still have to come over and keep watch when I have free time." After all, this is Fan Jin's biological mother and the grandma of his children. She will be buried tomorrow, just for one night. She can't be tired.
Fan Jin pursed his lips and whispered softly: "Then when you get sleepy later, just lean on my shoulder and squint for a while."
Shui Qing nodded.
The two entered the main room, and they were clearly different from each other.
Here is Yan Qiuxing returning to Wanxia Jianghehu, and over there are Fan Dazhu, Two Pillars, Three Pillars, who is moaning and sobbing in pain, and Fan Sizhu, whose eyes are dull.
Seeing Shui Qing come in, Fan Dazhu, who has always been self-responsible for Fan's parents and grandchildren, habitually wanted to say something sarcastic, but suddenly thought of the truth revealed by Si Zhu before, and reluctantly shut up.
The atmosphere in the main room was dull and depressing.
Before Yan Qiu's side, Grandma wanted to sell them, and she really didn't have much emotion. She was sad but not sad. However, Fan Dazhu's grandsons and grandsons had to cry and show off for the sake of face, so it was not in vain for Grandma to love them. However, after being exposed by Fan Sizhu, he simply stopped showing off, so the main room was extremely quiet.
Shui Qing thought it would be nice to have some peace and quiet - she still remembered how Fan Dazhu and the others howled and cried last night, who was the most aggressive and hateful person who wanted to cry!
Too fake.
If there is no sadness from the heart, it is better to be sincere, at least not to cause trouble.
Fan Jin approached Shui Qing and discussed in a low voice: "Shui Qing, we have found the person who will help my mother carry the coffin tomorrow. Now that it is freezing and everyone has contributed, the Sun family and the Zhao family are unable to repay thanks because of their current situation. I thought Let’s buy a few tables of tofu rice to thank the villagers for their help, okay?”
In reality, he had to admit that what happened last night was his eldest brother and nephew's fault after all. If it weren't for them, the Sun family, especially the Zhao family, wouldn't have lost several members at once.
Shui Qing knew that the village wedding banquet was also called tofu rice, with tofu as the main ingredient and served with rice or noodles. It was the simplest way for poor families to thank those who came to express their condolences.
Before she could respond, Fan Dazhu and the other people heard it with sharp ears and immediately retorted: "The village master came to express his condolences in the morning. He didn't send any memorial ceremony. He just invited the man who helped carry the coffin to eat. Why do we need to set up so many tables like this?" many."
"Our family is not rich in food. If the second uncle and second aunt ask for too much, you will have to pay." Fan Erzhu said immediately.
Fan Sanzhu expressed his attitude: "My grandma is gone, what's the use of making it nice and grand after her death? Anyway, I agree with a table of tofu rice, but I don't agree with more."
Fan Jin looked at Fan Dazhu's three nephews with a look that was bone-chillingly cold.
Shui Qing gently pulled off the hem of his clothes and reassured: "It's easier to argue about funerals than happy events. It's okay. We can pay for it ourselves. It's not like we can't get it out."
It's harder to help people at funerals than at happy events, so it's more than appropriate to treat them to a meal.
Anyway, the father-in-law is gone a long time ago, and now the mother-in-law is gone too. From now on, no one will use filial piety to suppress Fan Jin. From now on, the two families can really stay away from each other until death.
Yan Qiu said calmly: "Dad, let's go out on our own."
Jiang Hehu nodded heavily.
Wan Xia looked at the three relatives across from her with a chill in her eyes.
Fan Sizhu gave a sarcastic smile and said to Fan Jin Shuiqing: "Second uncle and second aunt, you shouldn't ask anyone to help with the burial. Just put grandma here and see if big brother and the others are afraid!"
Big brother and his friends were sure that Second Uncle and Second Aunt would not ignore Grandma, so they dared to ignore her and not provide food.
Fan Sanzhu quickly pulled Sizhu's sleeve and scolded in a low voice: "Whose family are you from! Don't you know how much food we have? Don't you want to eat it later? You just help outsiders."
Fan Sizhu sneered: "What's wrong with eating less?"
Fan Sanzhu didn't say anything, Fan Dazhu gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence like a favor: "Then let's provide some food."
"No, I'll take care of my mother's funeral." Fan Jin's eyes were indifferent, and he didn't want to have any intersection with these three nephews anymore.
As for Sizhu... let's see later.
Shuiqing has already made up his mind.
The donkey is not at home, so we can only grind soybean milk by hand, but with the help of Da Ni, Er Ni and five others, we will definitely make it in time.
Buy soybeans from the mall, enough quantity
Tomorrow is the 29th, and the tofu rice is a little better. The village needs people to work. If they eat well and are full, the injured will recover quickly, and the workers will have strength.
There are many eggs at home, so add some more eggs.
After she had a plan in mind, she said to Fan Jin: "I will go back and tell Dani and the others later."
Fan Jin nodded solemnly, holding Shuiqing's hand tightly and tightly, unwilling to let go for a long time.
