Because we live in the same village and my aunt is a teacher. So I knew more about Yu'e's studies, so I told them in detail, which made Wang Shuqin burst into tears. Children who grew up soaked in sugar water, how could they know that going to school alone would have to go through so many hardships?

There are big pots of food for every occasion in the village. During dinner, my uncle brought back several bowls. The big pot dish is a large pot stewed with meat, vermicelli, tofu, and vegetables, and the busy people eat it all.

My aunt cooked some more vegetables. In summer, rural people will not be short of vegetables. What they grow in front of and behind the house is enough for their own family. I don’t know if Wang Shuqin has never eaten these things or is really hungry. The food is very sweet. Especially the spring onions and lettuce leaves dipped in the homemade sauce. This girl is like a meal.

Ye Yuze glanced at her. "You are so easy to feed. My aunt usually feeds the pigs, but you have eaten them all. Then the pigs are still hungry, right?"

The aunt hit him with chopsticks. "I'm a girl, so you can't speak well?"

Wang Shuqin was directly immune to his words: "Girl, don't talk to pigs, it lowers your IQ."

The little cousin on the side didn't know whether she understood or not, and laughed happily. After looking at Wang Shuqin for a long time, she suddenly said: "Sister speaks so nicely."

Seeing that his little cousin was more honest than his aunt, Ye Yuze picked out a piece of meat and put it into her bowl: "Children who tell the truth should be rewarded."

"By the way, Yuze, have you brought all the people from your home village to the capital to work on projects?" My uncle suddenly remembered this and asked.

Ye Yuze took a sip of porridge and wiped his mouth: "It's not really a project, it's just dredging the river. People in the village are looking for me. I have no choice but to contact them about this matter."

Wang Shuqin looked at Ye Yuze blankly. This baby was obviously younger than herself. How come you are so capable?

"Then do they make money?" my uncle asked.

Ye Yuze glanced at his uncle curiously: "Are you going to die? Why do you ask?"

My uncle scratched his head: "I earn so much money every day by doing the same job, and living the same life is boring. It's good to go out and have a try."

Ye Yuze looked at his aunt, who threw his chopsticks and cursed angrily: "You've just had enough food for a few days and you're restless? Are you uncomfortable holding seventy or eighty yuan a day? Whose family in Shiliba Village? Can you earn so much?"

Ye Yuze nodded: "My aunt is right, uncle, you have to be practical. You can't aim too high. If you fly high, you will fall hard."

Wang Shuqin next to her burst into laughter. Pointing to his nose, he said, "That's uncle, do you think you can talk like that?"

Ye Yuze touched his nose: "I'm saying this for my aunt, okay? Anyway, she has to say it even if I don't say it. I said it for her to save her from getting tired."

Yu'e knelt down in the mourning shed in full filial piety, and her immediate family members were required to keep vigil. The custom here is that people have to let it go for three days. Then the funeral was carried out.

She is surrounded by her older sisters and three sisters-in-law. Everyone's eyes were swollen from crying. Although the old man had a domineering personality in his life, he managed to support the family. Now that he left suddenly, the children were all a little panicked. They don't know what to do next? Don’t even know where to buy goods from this most profitable store?

You must know that the old man has to travel to many places to purchase goods, especially cooked food. They are looking for something that tastes good and is cheap. Otherwise, how could the business be so good?

The eldest sister has now graduated and is working as a technician in a chemical factory in the county. My little sister is in the third grade of junior high school when school starts again, and she is studying well. The poor old man wanted his sons to be successful all his life, but in the end, all his spiritual energy went to his daughter.

Where this family will go from now on has really become a big question. Nowadays, the houses of several families have not been decorated, and their sons and daughters-in-law are farming, so there is a lot of food, but the country will not collect it, and no one knows where this year's food was sold. How can you renovate your house if you don’t have money?

Yu'e's mind was in a mess. Although the old man did not support her going to school, he never let her do any heavy work. Until now, the three sisters basically don’t know where their family’s land is. Therefore, Yu'e still has deep feelings for her father. In the countryside, no daughter would be treated like this, so she still had a deep feeling for her father.

There will be a funeral tomorrow, and she will rush back to school in the evening after the funeral. Thinking about how this family would no longer have a backbone, she felt that the sky was about to fall.

She didn't sleep much last night, and her mind was in a daze for half the day today. Sitting next to her father's body, her only reaction was to shed tears.

The whole family does not have to worry about the funeral. There is a special funeral in the village. He is responsible for strategizing the whole thing, from what cigarettes to smoke, what dishes to eat, to how much money to spend, everyone will be informed. Anyway, no matter how big or small, everything must be done personally. And Yu'e's family only needs to pay.

Such a person naturally has several capable people under his command, all of whom are responsible for their own share. For example, Ye Yuze's uncle is not only responsible for receiving gifts. Smoking, drinking, eating and drinking are all decided by him.

Nothing happened in the past two days. People came to express their condolences and then went back. Most of the people who stayed to eat were people of the same clan in the village. Basically stewed vegetables and steamed buns solve the problem.

There will be a banquet to be prepared for the funeral tomorrow, and some relatives from other villages will need to prepare an offering table. The so-called offering table is a board placed in front of the soul, with three animals and some snacks, alcoholic drinks, etc. placed on it.

The more things you put on display, the more face you will gain. This kind of altar table is usually set up by the natal family, that is, Yu'e's grandmother's family. There are also things that the family’s married daughters, nieces and the like can collect money to buy.

And these people have to prepare a serious banquet tomorrow, otherwise they will lose face. Yu'e's family had almost no money because they had just built a house for their sons.

Even though the ceremony table was placed there, not much money was received. At that time, there was very little gift money in rural areas. The people in the village basically gave a few cents to eat with the whole family for several days. Not to mention making money, they would definitely lose money. And she doesn't have many relatives in other villages. Anyone who can give her five yuan is a big gift, but there are too few such relatives.

The three sons have no money at all. They usually farm, and their father helps sell the grain every year, and the money is also in his father's hands. All of it was used to buy materials to build a house.

After hearing what his uncle said, Ye Yuze took out three thousand yuan from his bag. "Uncle, please prepare more things, don't lose face. I will pay for Yu'e and my classmate."

His uncle quickly pushed him back: "What do you mean by that? Besides, you can't use so much? You can't even use 300 for a banquet, so why don't you pay 3000?"
