Chapter 579 See Her off

Chapter 579 seeing her off

"Sister-in-law, don't stand here. Be careful of catching a cold. It's windy in the countryside."

Wenren Ziyou came over and whispered to her,

"Let's go. It's facing the river in front of us. It's an air vent. Let's go in."

Gu Nuan nodded and followed wen renzi's leisurely steps. Just as he reached the corner and looked forward, he saw that a long row of tents had been set up in a large open space in front of him.

"So many tents?"

Gu Nuan looked at Wenren Ziyou in surprise.

"There are a lot of people. Our old house used to have more than a dozen, but there are definitely not enough people. Naturally, we have to use tents. Besides, grandma won't carry them into the lobby. She's going to hold a funeral ceremony in the yard. Haven't you seen such a big tent in the middle of the yard?"

Of course, Gu Nuan saw it. She wondered why she wanted such a big shed. And guess there's no place for dinner in case it rains?

Now that she heard ren ziyou's explanation, it suddenly dawned on her. It seemed that Wang Minghui's funeral should be carried out according to the old-fashioned ceremony.

"If the people in Beijing hadn't been cremated, would your grandmother's account be erased by then?"

Gu Nuan looked at Wenren Ziyou and felt that it was against the rules of the city.

"My grandmother's account was taken to this country nineteen years ago when my grandfather was still alive."

Wenren Ziyou smiled and shook his head.

"The old man's mind, sometimes I really don't understand it. You say my grandmother, such an open-minded person, but it is on this matter, she can't be open-minded."

Gu Nuan: ..."

As soon as she reached the tent, she found that Wang Minghui had been carried down, and her face was still covered with a respirator, but she didn't know if her heart was beating.

The people who did things in the countryside had already arrived, and they discussed a few words with Wenren Zhen and the others. It was about time, and then the people from the Wenren Jia were discussing it in a low voice.

Compared to Jian Yiyun's enthusiasm, Cai Xirong seemed to be a little silent, but at the time of the argument, it seemed that she had said something.

Gu Nuan was so far away that he couldn't hear her clearly. Only when he heard ren ziyou pulling her closer did he hear Cai Xirong saying:

"I think we should take care of everyone. If we don't pay attention to it, then we should pay attention to it."

Gu Nuan had been teaching in Xiaoliang mountain for half a year, and he had seen the funeral customs in the countryside, so he knew more or less. It seemed that there was a particular time to go up the mountain, but he didn't know what they were talking about.

Later, Jian Yiyun and Wenren Junjie had a few more arguments, and in the middle, they mentioned Ruizhi and Wu Yueting's baby.

After an argument, he finally decided to remove the respirator from Wang Minghui's face at 9: 00 pm, which meant that Wang Minghui would not leave until 9: 00 pm.

Finally, it was agreed. Everyone gathered around to see Ming Hui wang. Wenren Junjie was about to change Wang Minghui's oxygen bag. Only then did he realize that Wang Minghui's heart had already stopped beating.

That is to say, she had already left quietly without knowing when!

When Wenren Junjie announced that Wang Minghui had left, everyone looked at each other, then walked to the open space in front of them and knelt down for a moment.

Gu nuan pulled Xiaojie down to her knees. Xiaojie didn't understand the rules. Her eyes were wide open and she was rolling around.

"Sister-in-law, can you kneel down and not die?" Xiaojie asked curiously.

"No, your grandmother has already left."

Gu Nuan whispered to her.

"Gone?"

Xiaojie obviously didn't understand. He pointed at Wang Minghui's body:

"Isn't grandma still lying there?"

"If you leave, you will die."

Gu Nuan explained in a low voice.

"Why should we kneel down when she's dead?"

Xiaojie asked, even more puzzled.

"See her off."

Gu Nuan explained in a low voice, reaching out to grab Xiaojie, who was trying to get up.

It was not until a man in a long robe said that he could get up that everyone slowly got up, and then someone brought a large mahogany coffin.

Gu Nuan's eyes widened. Didn't they just arrive?

Could it be that the previous person bought it in advance?

Confused, Wenren Ziyou explained to her in a low voice:

"This was done 18 years ago. My grandfather was seriously ill and wanted to make a coffin in the countryside. So he made two. My grandmother's was kept here."

"Oh..."

Gu Nuan suddenly realized how she could buy such a good mahogany coffin at once.

There were specialized funeral companies in the countryside, just like there were Wedding company in the city, and when these people came to deal with things, everything became less cumbersome, just doing what was arranged.

The tranquility of the village was completely broken by the arrival of their group, and even the villagers nearby came to see them.

There were so many tents, but gu nuan was not arranged in the tent. She and Wenren Ziyou, Xiaojie, and huo wei lived in the old Wenren Jia house, and they lived in the room on the left of the lobby.

Even if she didn't drive, she felt a little tired after the long bus. Besides, it was windy in the evening. Just as she was about to enter the house, she heard a burst of laughter outside.

Looking back, it was Xiaojie running around.

Xiaojie came to this country for the first time, and then came to this kind of place, naturally felt especially fresh.

Wenren Ziyou followed behind him. The seven-year-old child was at the age of jumping up and down. He ran like a happy puppy. How could ziyou catch up with him?

Gu nuan and huo wei stood there, looking at Xiaojie, who was running happily, and couldn't help but laugh.

Hui ting and Wenren Junjie were in front of the sorcerer, listening to him explain things, heard laughter, and looked up. When she saw that it was Xiaojie, her brows furrowed in an instant.

"Little jing, help me pull little jie back."

Huiting frowned and shouted.

Thus, Wenren Jing, who was beside Wenren Zhen, immediately ran out and quickly caught Xiaojie, who was running happily in the field.

Xiaojie was caught by Wenren Jing and brought directly to huiting, who scolded him with a grim face. Then Xiaojie pressed his head and lowered his ears to admit his mistake in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, mommy. I'm not running around anymore."

Hui ting looked up at Gu Nuan and shouted,

"Gu Nuan."

Gu Nuan hurried forward.

"Aunt."

"Give me some discipline."

"Yes," gu nuan answered, holding Xiaojie's hand and walking to the side.

Xiaojie kept her mouth shut, as if she was about to cry. She obviously still felt wronged to hear hui ting scold him in front of so many people.

Gu Nuan squatted down and gently stroked his shoulder.

"Xiaojie, this is the countryside, not the city. Those ridges are uneven. It's getting dark again. What if you fall into the river? The water in that river is really cold."

Xiaojie lowered his head and said dejectedly, "I see."

Gu Nuan gently patted his apple-like face and got up, only to find that Wenren Zhen was looking at her not far away. She was a little stunned, then took Xiaojie's hand and walked into the house.

When he entered the room, Xiaojie sat there sullenly. The wooden stool, naturally, made him uncomfortable. Besides, there were no toys in the room, and he felt particularly depressed.

Fortunately, it was not long before someone came to inform them of dinner. Gu nuan and Xiaojie walked out. On a large open space outside the tent, nearly thirty tables had been set up.

Gu Nuan was shocked and couldn't help but ask huo wei:

"So many people's food, so quickly cooked? Who's in charge of the kitchen?"

"Yes, they are. There are cooks in the countryside who specialize in cooking. Whoever has a red or white wedding at home, they will find these cooks to do it, just like the funeral team." Huo Weiwu explained.

"..." Well, it seems that her half year of teaching in the countryside was a waste of time.

Gu Nuan took Xiaojie and sat down at a random table. Then he took the bowl and went to help jie and himself to cook. He sat at the table and ate quietly.

"Why are they all vegetarian?"

Xiaojie was a child after all, and he was unhappy to see the vegetarian food on the table.

"I want meat. There's no meat on this table."

"Xiaojie, you can't eat meat now,"

Gu Nuan quickly explained to him:

"You'll have to endure it. You've only been vegetarian for the past two days."

"Why?"

Xiaojie looked at her in confusion.

Because your grandmother left,"

Gu Nuan said to him patiently.

"What does grandma's death have to do with eating meat?"

Xiaojie became even more confused.

"Grandma doesn't know if we eat meat or not."

"That's the rule."

Gu Nuan looked at him and said with a straight face:

"Since you are here, you must abide by the rules."

When Xiaojie heard this, he hung his head and did not speak again. He took his chopsticks, picked up the shredded potatoes and ate them.

As soon as they finished eating here, Wenren Ziyou immediately took two white pullovers and thick white cloth coats and handed them to the two of them.

"What is this?" Gu Nuan looked at Wenren Ziyou in surprise.

"Ma yi,"

Wenren Ziyou explained in a low voice:

"In ancient times, people used to wear hemp to wear filial piety. This is what they used to wear. Now that they have improved, they can wear it on their bodies. It's good to have more or less protection from the wind."

"..." Gu Nuan took them, one big and one small. She put the big one on herself and the small one on Xiaojie.

The first night in the countryside was destined to be a sleepless night.

This evening, the sorcerer was doing things for Wang Minghui. Four or five sorcerers were busy there. A long table was set up under the tent, and the floor in front of the long table had been carpeted.

Everyone except Wu Yueting, who was pregnant, had to kneel down, including Xiaojie, who was only seven years old.

Most of the people who came to Wang Minghui's funeral were also close relatives, and those who had heard of them or had some distant relatives were also on the list of kneeling.

The ceremony didn't end until the wee hours of the morning. Gu Nuan, who was weak, finally got up on his knees and felt dizzy. His eyes darkened and he fell sideways.
