The Right Way to Open a Perfect Life
Page 391
"It might be the pot of the house, it's not soundproof." Shen Yan pointed to the windows and the door.
Zhao Liying gave her husband another look, then turned around and went out to bring him water to wash up.
In fact, she was also quite depressed. She and her husband did not go too far last night, it was just an ordinary married life, but who would have thought...
Well, Zhao Liying only has Shen Yan as a man, until now she still thinks that four to five 10 minutes at a time is a normal married life. During breakfast, Dad Zhao and Zhao Haiyang came back. After breakfast, the family went to the second master's house again. Zhao's mother and Xiaoling also followed.
According to the local customs, it takes three days for the spirit to be erected, and three days later it will be buried in the ground, and the funeral will be over after it is buried.
Of course, the so-called custom is not so strict, it depends on the actual situation, early in the morning, there was a custom of setting up a seven-day spirit turn, and then because of the long time of setting up the spirit shed, the problem of corpses often stink, so time It was shortened to three days, and today is the second day. Erye's house was even more lively than yesterday, and relatives and friends from other places also came to mourn and attend the funeral today.
Father Zhao and Zhao Haiyang, as the sons of the Zhao family, have been busy all the time.
Shen Yan and Zhao Liying were more relaxed, standing hand in hand, the main task was to act as a background wall for relatives and friends who came to the funeral to take pictures.
In the morning, everything was as usual. At noon, Shen Yan and Zhao Liying had lunch at Grandpa's house.
In the afternoon, there was an episode that made people laugh and cry.
In northern China, trumpet makers are always invited for funerals. The second master also invited two groups for this funeral. One group was hired by the eldest daughter, and the other was hired by the second daughter. Originally, the two groups of trumpet makers were safe and sound. You play for a while. I blew it for a while, and it matched pretty well.
However, after the third daughter of the second master's family gave 200 yuan to one of the trumpet makers, the honeymoon period of the two trumpet makers ended completely, and they collapsed immediately.
The group of trumpet makers who didn't get the money was obviously a little upset. The sound of their blowing became louder and more intense.
The other group of trumpet makers didn't hesitate when they saw the other party's provocation, and started playing hard with Ruo.
The two sides immediately got angry, and the scene was extremely lively for a while. Many villagers from the village who had gone to the funeral yesterday also ran over again at this moment, and gathered around the yard to watch the commotion.
And when there were more people around, the two groups of trumpet makers became more energetic. The group on the left made a big move first. This time it was not just playing the trumpet and drums. up cucumbers.
The crowd who watched this scene applauded. The trumpet maker on the right was not to be outdone, and played with the redemption fire with a wine bottle.
The scene reached its climax. Those who knew it was a funeral, but those who didn't know it probably thought it was a temple fair.
Shen Yan and Zhao Liying had already retreated to the yard of Jiejie's house at this time, there were too many people at the second master's house, and there was no place to stand.
Seeing the two groups of trumpet makers performing all kinds of acrobatics at this moment, Shen Yan was completely dumbfounded, and the cigarette in his hand was almost burned out without noticing it.
He also read it on the Internet before, saying that there were funerals in rural areas, song and dance troupes, and even striptease dancers, but that was just news, and it didn't seem so real after all.
But right now, although it's not as exaggerated as a striptease, but judging from the scene, it's not inferior at all.
Zhao Liying was also very surprised, she was a little speechless in addition to being surprised, looked up, the three aunts of the second master's family were also looking up, and all of them were smiling, as if they were very satisfied with the current scene.
Seriously, this is her second master. If this was her close relative, the table would have been turned over long ago.
There are indeed many bad habits in the countryside. This cannot be interpreted too much, but it cannot be denied that funerals should be regarded as happy events and happy events should be regarded as disturbances. The fun of it is understood by others. At least Shen Yan and Zhao Liying are really incapable of accepting it.
Chapter 795 Strikes the Autumn Wind (seeking a monthly ticket)
The indecent nature of the funeral made Zhao Liying even plan to return to the capital. She and her husband took time to come back from a long distance, but ended up attending this kind of farce-like funeral, which felt particularly boring.
Of course, Zhao Liying definitely can't go back now if she plans to go back.
After all, attending the funeral was only one of the reasons for her and her husband to come back. More often, she brought her husband back to meet her family and parents.
Moreover, from her own point of view, it is also rare for her to go back to her hometown. She has been in contact with her elder sister on the phone without any advance warning, and her husband is not bothered. Of course, she is much happier spending two days with him Tian Er Shi Yi watched the excitement all afternoon, Zhao Liying and Shen Yan went home for dinner, and the two of them "August [-]" didn't go to the second master's house in the evening, and went to the small river for a walk.
The green grass by the river, accompanied by the evening wind, running water, and the chirping of insects, together with the couple hugging each other by the river, is like an oil painting, unspeakably romantic.
But it's just that the picture looks romantic and beautiful. In fact, the process is very fucked up.
In summer, the mosquitoes by the river are very poisonous and large. As soon as she arrived at the river, Zhao Liying was bitten several times. The most annoying thing is that the bites were all on the back where it was difficult to grasp.
What's even more annoying than this is that she and her husband have been staying together all the time, and it's like following the navigation with those mosquitoes, aiming at her to bite alone, but her husband has nothing to do.
"Did you mess it up?"
The couple walked home along the path, Zhao Liying was in front, Shen Yan was half a step behind, and stretched out his hand to scratch his wife's back.
"Comrade Xiao Zhao, can you be reasonable, you can blame me for being bitten by a mosquito? Mosquitoes won't listen to me, what the hell can I do?
"Then why do mosquitoes only bite me and not you?" Zhao Liying puffed her little face, making her face round, her big eyes flickering, and her long eyelashes like two small fans. She is indescribably cute, Baozi Zhao The nickname, the fans didn't go on business. Shen Yan couldn't help but bowed his head and thought about the little face of the sixth wife, and said with a smile: "Then why else, you are bloody."
A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Liying's mouth, she rolled a charming look at Shen Yan, and squeezed her soft body into her husband's arms.
The couple talked and laughed, Qingqing and I returned home and found two cars parked outside the yard.
When I entered the house, I saw that guests really came to the house, a total of five men and one woman, who were sitting on the edge of the kang chatting with Zhao's father. Among the six people, Zhao Liying didn't know the other five people. The middle-aged man sitting on the far left, She did know who it was, it was the village head of Changting Village.
Seeing that the village head came to the house, Zhao Liying immediately guessed the purpose of these people, and they came here to beat the autumn wind again. Zhao Liying's original good mood suddenly turned bad with Ruo.
"Liying is back, and she is getting more and more beautiful. This must be Mr. Shen. Hello, Mr. Shen, I am Zhao Guiping, the village head of Changting Village. Speaking of which, we are real relatives. Liying called me Fourth Uncle. Liying talks about it here, we have to be called grandparents.
Seeing the couple enter the house, the village chief Zhao Guiping immediately got up and greeted them. While shaking hands with Shen Yan, he said with a smile.
Then he turned his lower body and introduced the five people who came with him to Shen Yan and Zhao Liying, saying that these five people belonged to Kamikaze Technology Co., Ltd., this is Mr. Li, that is Mr. Zhang, and they are registered in Singapore With the support of the Magnesium Consortium, etc. Zhao Guiping is just a village chief, and his eloquence is really good. Although it seems weird to be vulgar, he can indeed say that for more than half an hour, no one else can interrupt at all. Chatting on and on.
Zhao Liying became more and more impatient, and the unhappiness in her heart was directly on her face. To be honest, she didn't have a good impression of this Zhao Guiping. Since she became famous, Zhao Guiping often came to her to ask for money.
At the beginning, she was more concerned. After all, she grew up here. Now that she is famous and rich, it is only natural that she should give some of the money to help the elders in her hometown. She is also willing to take the money.
But after taking it a few times, she realized that this was not the case at all.
The money was given, but in the end it was not used at all. They said they needed money to build roads, but after the money was received, it was one thing and another. It had been several years, and there was no road for a meter fix on...
In the end, not only did it not help the hometown, but according to my mother, it also caused conflicts among the villagers.
Since then, Zhao Liying has given up on this idea. In order to avoid Zhao Guiping, even if she goes home, she always stays at home in Huilang City. When she goes back to her hometown once in a while, she avoids him.
I didn't expect to be blocked by this guy again this time.
Shen Yan listened to Zhao Guiping's eloquence in silence, and then looked at the sixth wife's face, and gradually understood in his heart.
This reminded him of that big coat brother from his previous life.
Brother Dayi is a real tragedy, and everyone in the village points at him to live alone, spending millions to do this and that, but in the end he doesn't even have a good word, and instead he is scolded as a fool.
"Old Zhao, if you have something to say, just talk about it. The children are very tired after a busy day." Zhao's father was obviously annoyed by this one, so he couldn't help but interrupt.
Zhao Guiping's psychological quality is really good, but he doesn't care at all when faced with the disgust of this family.
"That's what happened. Mr. Li wants to cooperate with Li Ying and Xiao Shen. With Mr. Li's strength and the popularity of Li Ying and Xiao Shen, this is definitely a strong alliance..."
Zhao Guiping got to the point this time, and Mr. Li and Mr. Zhang followed suit.
Shen Yan and Zhao Liying also gradually understood that these people were looking for them to be their endorsers, and the product they endorsed was the mattress that they said would cure all diseases, was certified by the United Nations, and was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Physics.
Well, the so-called therapeutic mattress.
The most ridiculous thing is not this, but the payment method of the endorsement fee. According to Mr. Li, this is called active payment. To put it bluntly, it means that no money will be given at the beginning. The couple commissioned: "I'm sorry, we're mainly focusing on making movies now, and we haven't accepted endorsements for a long time, so I'm sorry that we can't cooperate with your company. My husband is not feeling well, so I'm sorry."
Zhao Liying interrupted Zhao Guiping and those people's lobbying with a cold face, walked into the Westinghouse holding her husband's hand, and locked the door behind her.
Chapter 796 Seeing Off (Seeking a Monthly Ticket)
They all lived in the same village, and what Zhao Guiping said was correct, he and Zhao Liying were indeed relatives, so Zhao Liying hated it in her heart, but before today, she still gave this fourth uncle some face, It has nothing to do with whether he is the village chief or not. The Zhao family only stays in Changting with their grandparents. Zhao's parents, Zhao's mother, and Zhao Haiyang all live in Langshi.
Not to mention Zhao Liying, who is already married, and the number of times she returns to Changting Village is also limited.
Whether he is the village chief has little to do with the Zhao family.
In the final analysis, we still think about the relationship between relatives, and it is fine for everyone to understand some things in their hearts, and there is no need to tear up their faces and bring them to the public.
But today Zhao Liying was really angry, it was simply fooling her and her husband for fools.
That broken mattress is a fake at first glance. There is really something that can cure all diseases, so I'm afraid it won't sell?The most exaggerated thing is the payment method, what kind of active payment, isn't this just a white wolf with empty hands?This is no longer a lie, it is clearly an insult to her IQ.
You don't need to ask Zhao Liying to know that Zhao Guiping must have received money from Mr. Li, so he came here to be a lobbyist.
He has already treated himself as a fool, so Zhao Liying naturally has no need to save face for him.
This is now, that is, already married and a wife. If it was earlier years, I would have scolded others long ago.
How Zhao Guiping reacted, whether he left angrily, or continued to have a thick skin, Zhao Liying didn't care anymore, anyway, her father was dealing with it, and she was more worried about her husband's thoughts at the moment.
"My husband, did I embarrass you?"
Zhao Liying bent her white legs, squatting in front of Shen Yan, held Shen Yan's hand with her small hand, and put it on her face, her big eyes looked up pitifully, her expression was like a kitten begging for food, which made people feel pitiful .
Zhao Liying is indeed a little worried about gains and losses now. She doesn't mind letting her husband know that she was born in a rural area, and she doesn't mind letting her husband know how backward her hometown is.
Because these are not her fault, she is not ashamed of it, but admits openly that she grew up here, and this is her home.
But these two incidents today made her feel extremely ashamed, and she felt a little ashamed.
The funeral at Erye’s house is not like a funeral, and the happy event is not like a farce of a happy event, and the current autumn wind is not an exaggeration. It makes people laugh when you say it. Zhao Liying is now worried that her husband thinks too much, and then thinks that her relatives and neighbors, It's all this kind of inexplicable stuff.
"Stop thinking about it, what does this have to do with you, life is full of different kinds, and there are all kinds of people, and you are not a god, so you can control what others think and do?"
"Well, thank you husband!"
Zhao Liying could see that her husband was not coaxing her, but really didn't care, a smile appeared on her pitiful little face, and the depression in her heart was swept away.
As long as the husband doesn't care, everything will be fine.
On May 5, the third day of the funeral.
Maybe it was because they had too much fun yesterday, but today the two groups of trumpet makers were visibly sluggish, and they all sat there listlessly, and they were a little weak in playing.
However, the atmosphere of the funeral was still very lively, the trumpet maker was depressed, but there was still a special rhythm for crying.
The so-called "crying work" refers to professional weeping, on behalf of the relatives of the deceased, and weeping before the spirit.
It's not really crying, but the kind of singing and crying, and there are special lyrics.
Everyone present didn't care about this, including Zhao Liying. The profession of crying has not been around for a year or two. It has been around for a long time, and now, these people are usually invited for funerals. It was the first time for Shen Yan to see her, but he didn't make a fuss this time. With yesterday's excitement, he has a strong ability to accept it now. The day passes, and at night, he starts to see him off.
The so-called seeing off means literally sending the souls of the dead on their way.
A group of relatives, wearing filial hats, carried wreaths, paper lanterns, paper cows, paper horses, paper carts, etc., walked along the village road, and then went to the small river to burn all the paper bundles.
The send-off team left at [-]:[-] p.m. Zhao Haiyang had no grandson, so Zhao Haiyang walked in the front and took the photo. Behind Zhao Haiyang was the grandson of Zhao Haiyang, holding a elegiac couplet, and behind him was a group of people carrying paper bundles. These are not all the immediate family members of Mr. Zhao, there are also many people from the village who came to help.
Shen Yan, Zhao Liying, Zhao Ma, Xiaoling and others walked last, and the couple also put on filial piety hats. They said they were filial piety hats, but they were actually strips of white cloth tied around their heads.
Close relatives would still wear mourning clothes made of white cloth, but Shen Yan and Zhao Liying were cousins, so there was no need to make it so grand.
"The funeral is tomorrow morning. We also call the funeral here, that is, the second master's coffin is carried to the cemetery and buried in the soil. The coffin is not carried when seeing off. Do you see the chairs that the second uncle and the third uncle carried?" Zhao Liying Holding her husband's arm, she walked slowly with the team while explaining the funeral customs in her hometown to her husband.
