Lao Qian's body went to the funeral parlor covered with the party flag, and the urn was brought back by Xiaoyu with the party flag covered. After the official memorial and farewell ceremonies are completed, the next step is to organize the funeral according to Linghai customs.

With Lao Zhu here, there is almost no need for Xiaoyu's family to worry about things like setting up the mourning hall, inviting monks, Taoists, and Zaku, as long as they have the money ready.

Han Yu couldn't sleep for two days and one night in a row. He couldn't bear it anymore, so he went back to his home with his senior sister to rest.

When I woke up, it was already 10:30 pm. You can vaguely hear the gongs and drums being played at Xiaoyu's house. You don't need to ask to know that it's the monks and Taoists who are doing the water and land dojo.

After washing up in the bathroom upstairs and walking downstairs, I saw smoke filling the hall. Li Weiguo, Lao Zhang, Lao Ding and Zhang Junyan were still sitting around the Eight Immortals table, smoking and talking to Xiaoyu.

"Uncle Li, Director Zhang, didn't you rest?"

"I just squinted for a while."

Li Weiguo put out the cigarette butt, looked at Han Yu and said, "Xianyu, you came down just in time. We are discussing the burial. When people leave, they have to be buried. The urn cannot always be kept at home."

Han Yu opened the bench, sat down and asked, "Where is Uncle Liang?"

"Three will be given away tomorrow. There are probably thirty tables. He is busy." Li Weiguo took a deep breath and continued: "As long as Xiaoyu is here, Xiaoyu can make the decision."

Han Yu saw his father sitting on the edge without saying a word, and said quickly: "Uncle Li, Uncle Zhang, I don't understand these things."

It’s normal for young people not to understand this.

Li Weiguo didn't want to embarrass Han Yu and said straight to the point: "There are two plans now. One is to be buried in the responsibility field of Liao Shoufang's family in the second team as Mr. Yin Yang said. Mr. Yin Yang calculated again and again and said that the land of Liao Shoufang's family was Good Feng Shui.”

When someone dies in the village, Mr. Yin Yang is asked to "survey" the feng shui to find the best place to bury the ashes. The cemetery may not necessarily be on your own land, but may occupy someone else's land. However, people in the village are quite reasonable in this kind of matter. Unless the relationship between the two families is very bad, they will usually agree.

Han Yu was about to ask if he had gone to talk to Liao Shoufang, but Li Weiguo continued: "Xiaoyu's family and Liao Shoufang's family have gotten along well over the years. Lao Qian often helped the Liao family with work and sent fish to the Liao family during his lifetime. All we need to do is open this door , people will definitely agree.”

"What about the second plan?" Han Yu asked curiously.

"The second plan was thought of by Lao Ding. Lao Ding, tell me."

Ding Suo held the tea cup, raised his head and said: "Lao Qian is an old party member and veteran soldier, and he has no children. Logically speaking, Lao Qian's funeral should be handled by the government."

"Uncle Ding, my grandpa is not childless. My grandpa has my father, my mother, and me." Xiaoyu couldn't help but mutter.

"One code equals the other. I mean that the old man has no children in a legal sense and a blood relationship."

"oh."

"My point is very simple. Lao Qian is a veteran soldier who participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. Lao Qian's ashes can be buried in the Martyrs Cemetery!"

If Lao Qian's ashes could be buried in the Martyrs Cemetery, it would certainly be better than being buried in Liao Shoufang's responsibility field!

Han Yu understood as if enlightened, hesitated and asked: "Uncle Ding, Uncle Qian is an old party member and veteran soldier, but he is not a martyr. Can he be buried in the martyr cemetery if he is not a martyr?"

"What do you know!" Lao Ding took the cigarette from Zhang Junyan and said: "The people buried in the cemetery in the southeast corner of Linghai Martyrs Cemetery are almost all veteran cadres and not many revolutionary martyrs. In the past, management was not as strict as it is now. , as long as the family has some background, they can bury the ashes in it.”

"That was before, and now is now. I'm afraid this job is not easy to do."

"It is indeed difficult to bury Lao Qian's ashes in the Linghai Martyrs Cemetery, but it is completely possible to bury him in the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery. I have the final say in the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery, and besides, the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery is not under the jurisdiction of the Civil Affairs Bureau."

I almost forgot, he is the director of the non-staff management committee of Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery.

Although the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery does not have city funding, the Linghai Development Zone has money, and the Linghai Reserve Camp, which also has no shortage of funds, has been well constructed under the management of Lao Ding in the past few years. It is tree-lined and solemn. .

But this is a genuine use of power for personal gain.

Han Yuzheng didn't know what to say, but Lao Ding said confidently: "The exhibition hall of the cemetery is too single, and I'm planning to rearrange it. Xiaoyu, please donate your grandpa's old military uniform and diary to our cemetery later. I'll think about it again." The method is to collect some historical relics and add an exhibition area to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea.

Although I cannot be the owner of Linghai Martyrs Cemetery, I can still be the owner of Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery. From now on, not only your grandfather, but also veteran soldiers who participated in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the War of Liberation, and the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea can have their ashes buried in our cemetery after their death. The Development Zone Management Committee will definitely support it! "

Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery can actually only be regarded as a martyrs' tomb. After all, there are too few revolutionary martyrs buried in the cemetery.

The Civil Affairs Bureau previously planned to move the remains of the martyrs buried in the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery to the Linghai Martyrs Cemetery, but the Development Zone Management Committee did not agree because once the burials were moved, the development zone would have no patriotic education base and would have to travel every year during Qingming Festival. Go to the city to visit graves.

The Civil Affairs Bureau simply ignored it and did not arrange funds for the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery.

The development zone has plenty of money, so it is nothing to spend tens of thousands of dollars a year on maintenance and repairs for the Sanhe Martyrs Cemetery. At the same time, because there is no establishment, the cemetery has been managed by Lao Ding, a retired police officer.

Lao Ding plans to relax the conditions for burial in the cemetery, so that "the law does not punish the public".

Han Yu was so impressed that he fell to the ground and said without hesitation: "I have no objection."

"Lao Li, what about you?"

"As long as the development zone management committee doesn't object, I have no objection."

"Little fish?"

"I don't have any objection either. My grandpa definitely wants to go to the Martyrs Cemetery."

"Then it's settled."

Seeing that everyone still seemed to have doubts, Lao Ding puffed out a cigarette and said: "There is a problem with the current policy, at least it was not comprehensive enough when formulating it. For example, in the Linghai Martyrs Cemetery just mentioned, there were many things that did not meet the conditions in the past. It is very difficult to remove the ashes of some people who are buried there. For example, some relatives are unwilling to bury the ashes there, no matter how you do it.”

Han Yu asked puzzledly: "Why are the relatives of the martyrs unwilling?"

"The martyrs had family members during their lifetime. If the martyrs meet the conditions, their ashes can be buried in the martyrs' cemetery. However, the widows of the martyrs do not meet the conditions. This means that one of the couple must be buried in the cemetery and the other buried outside, which is equivalent to breaking up the family. The living members of the family are We haven’t spent much time together, and they can’t be buried together after they die, which makes no sense either emotionally or rationally!”

"Yeah, from a traditional perspective, it's really against common sense."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Anyway, Lao Qian doesn't have these problems. Zhang Bureau, didn't you just say that you wanted to make up for Lao Qian's regrets? Xiaoyu is here, and Xianyu is also here, let's talk about it."

"OK."

Although Zhang Junyan is retiring, on this occasion, Li Weiguo, Lao Zhang, Lao Ding and other old friends of Lao Qian will be the main ones.

He sat up straight, looked at Xiaoyu and said meaningfully: "The ancients said that there are three types of unfilial piety, and the greatest is not having an offspring. Xiaoyu, although your grandpa never said this before he was alive, I know that he didn't want the Qian family to end their incest. He is I really treat your mother as my daughter and you as my grandson. If you and Yuzhen are willing, I suggest you have another child and let the child's surname be Qian. Your grandfather's spirit in heaven will be very happy when he knows about it, and he can rest in peace even if he dies. ”

Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, then said with a grimace: "We would like to have a baby, but our superiors won't agree."

"As long as you are willing to live, there will always be a way."

"any solution."

"You can definitely make two plans. The first is to explain the situation to your superiors. Your grandfather has no children, and your two uncles have not started a family. This means that both Qian and Cao are cut off. Special circumstances should be treated specially by superiors. , you can even ask the Linghai Family Planning Department to give you a certificate.”

Zhang Junyan saw that Xiaoyu was doubtful and patiently explained: "In terms of family planning management, not every place is as strict as Binjiang. I believe that as long as the situation is explained to the superiors, the superior family planning management department will take it into consideration."

Li Weiguo thought this was a good idea and couldn't help but said: "I didn't know that before, but later I learned that our family planning management is the strictest in the country in Binjiang. There is a young man in our village who married a wife from Nanhe. I just got the marriage certificate, but I didn't get the birth certificate." After giving birth to the child, the village and town were alarmed. More than a dozen cadres came to their home to explain the policy and demanded a fine of tens of thousands. If the fine was not paid, the child would not be registered, and the child would not be allowed to undergo epidemic prevention. I can’t even get injections, and I won’t be able to go to school in the future.”

Han Yu asked curiously: "What happened next?"

"The young man's wife's name is Xiaolan, and Xiaolan didn't want to pay the fine. She took the child back to her hometown in Nanhe while the town cadres were not paying attention. She applied for a new birth certificate in her hometown in Nanhe and helped the child register. She came back some time ago and went to the police station to tell her I need to transfer my child’s household registration.”

"Will you move me?"

"Why can't the police station be relocated? It's not like they don't comply with the relevant regulations on household registration management. The village cadres and town cadres were dumbfounded. The female director of the village met me the day before yesterday and complained about the lax management of other provinces and cities. We only manage here. What’s the use of being strict?”

There is a "plan" to have a second child.

If we only talk about Xiaoyu's family, the superiors will definitely not allow Xiaoyu and Yuzhen to have a second child, because Yuzhen's family has several brothers and sisters. If you include Lao Qian and Xiao Yu's two bachelor uncles, then according to relevant regulations, it is completely possible to have a baby. But there is no legal or blood relationship between Lao Qian and Xiao Yu...

Han Yuzheng felt that this matter might not be easy to handle. Zhang Junyan continued: "If the superiors don't agree, let Yuzhen go to Hong Kong after getting pregnant, give birth to the child in Hong Kong, and give the child a Hong Kong household registration. The family planning department has no control over heaven and earth. When I go to Hong Kong, it’s hard to say anything even if I know it’s your child. Besides, you have this condition. Not only do you have financial strength, you also have friends in Hong Kong.”

Xiaoyu didn't want her grandfather to lose her incest, and felt that this was the only thing she could do for her grandfather. She said happily: "Yes, I can let Yuzhen go to Hong Kong to give birth. If the child is born, his surname is Qian but not Liang. It doesn't matter." If it’s registered in my family’s household registration book, it won’t count as having a second child!”

This is okay too!

Han Yu was stunned and didn't know what to say for a while.
