Chapter 35: ready

The third elder brother who had been away for a month came back. The people in the village knew what they were doing this time. Many grandma and auntie took them to say that Ye Qingshan was wronged for death, and they were so pitiful.
Ye Ning and Ye Lan were older, and they just felt uncomfortable. Eucalyptus cried out loudly. Mom no longer wanted him, and now his father is gone. From now on, he will be a child without parents.
"Don't be afraid, the eldest sister and the second sister are here." Ye Ning pinched the face of Eucalyptus eucalyptus. After raising for a month, he became white and fat. He looks like Li Fang, and he must be a very handsome and handsome man when he grows up. Mother Xiaoyan, we have a lot of things at home, so let's go back and get busy."
"Go, just come to me if you need help." Seeing the three siblings walking away, they said with emotion, "Poor, no parents at this age."
"Poor thing, I didn't see Ye Ning entering the pharmaceutical factory as a formal worker. Now Ye Lan is also admitted to high school. Turning back, Ye Ning helped her also introduce her to the factory as a dual employee. They will definitely find a worker in the city to get married. Are you afraid of raising a younger brother like Eucalyptus?" There was an older lady who thought Xiaoyan's mother was a fake compassion.
When Xiaoyan's mother heard her grandma's words, she suddenly felt that her whole body was awkward.
Her daughter Wang Xiaoyan and Ye Ning are the same age. The two girls in the village will inevitably compare. Wang Xiaoyan helped out at home after graduating from elementary school. She married a carpenter in the next village when she was seventeen. She was proud of her for a long time. She is still going to school and spends her family’s money. One is already married to a craftsman, and she doesn’t worry about food and clothing. She feels she’s doing the right thing. She didn’t expect Ye Ning to enter the medicine factory and also brought her younger siblings to the city. Let Xiaoyan continue to school if she knows it, two can't be brought in, one is always fine, if their family has two workers, it would be more beautiful.
There was no one in the house for a month, and a layer of ash had accumulated. Ye Ning asked Ye Lan and Eucalyptus to clean first. She was going to the next village to see if the coffin was ready.
The wood for the coffin was provided by themselves. Many elderly people would prepare the coffin wood early. One year, Ye Ning’s grandfather found two good camphor trees on the mountain. He spent a lot of money to buy them from the secretary of the brigade. Three sets of coffins can be made, the old couple of them have one coffin one by one, and the rest are not moved. Who would have thought that the last coffin was used on Ye Qingshan.
The coffin is ready. The camphor wood is very fragrant. The main insect-proof camphor wood is the best coffin material for ordinary people. Ye Ning watched as the coffin was laid, and her eyes were instantly red.
"Thank you, I will find someone to carry it tomorrow." Ye Ning hurried home immediately, bringing Yelan and a piece of Eucalyptus to her little uncle's house.
It is reasonable to find old man Ye for this kind of thing. Unfortunately, old man Ye is really chilling. Ye Ning doesn’t want Ye Qingshan to be uneasy after his death, so she simply bypasses him and finds his third uncle. He is both the patriarch of the Ye family and a relative of Ye Qingshan. Uncle, can also help.
He brought five pounds of meat, two bottles of wine and two packs of cigarettes. The gift was not light. Seeing what they were carrying, the third uncle said angrily: "It's all a family. Your father is gone. We should help. Why are you still mentioning something? Take it back in a while, otherwise I'm really angry."
"Uncle, please accept it, otherwise we will feel uneasy." Ye Ning put the things down and said to the third uncle: "I don't know anything about funerals, and Xiaolan doesn't understand, so I have to do everything. Please mention something."
Sanshugong sighed, smoking a dry cigarette: "Your parents are not there, the old house... Isn't this funeral as simple as everything?"
Ye Ning and Ye Lan looked at each other. They knew that the third uncle was thinking about them, and they were afraid that they would spend too much money for the funeral.
"Thank you Sanshugong for taking care of us. We didn't even think about running the big game. It's just...it can't be too simple, generally it is still necessary." Scenery Grand Funeral can't do it, but it can't be too shabby.
The third uncle nodded, "You are all filial children. You have looked to Master Wu in the cemetery. Where is the coffin?"
"I did it with Xiaoyan's father-in-law. Tomorrow I will ask some uncles next to me to bring it here." Ye Ning said again: "I bought the white cloth, but we really don't know what to return. I want to ask your opinion. It is the noodles. Xiaolan said that there are four cool, four hot and eight dishes, and that some people will add chicken and duck. We are not particularly clear about this."
"In return, you can return soap just like the big guys. This is cheap and practical, and the noodles... These years have been better. Some people are very popular and make two dishes of whole chicken and duck. Most people do this. You want If you can do it well, you have to put it on the table. Now the main thing is how many people you want to invite, make a list for me, and Yeah will follow me to call people later."
Ye Ning nodded without hesitation. After having lunch at San Uncle's house, San Sister and Brother returned home and discussed who to invite.
Their mother is an educated youth and there is no foreign family to invite. The relatives are from the father's side, most of them are in the village. Outside are all relatives like married aunts and aunts, except for Ye Qingshan's relatives. This aunt walks around every year, these three people must invite, and other cousins ​​like the daughter of the third uncle are fine.
"Do you want to invite your uncle?" Ye Lan asked when Ye Ning wrote her name one by one.
Uncle? Ye Lan didn’t say that she had forgotten that they had no family, Ye Qingshan did, and his mother was from Xiangshe Village. He used to walk more than 20 miles here. The more than 20 miles are not flat. I had to climb several mountains. At first my stepmother wanted to marry Ye Qingmei to a lame wife. Ye Qingmei went to Xiangshe Village all night to find her uncle. Then her uncle’s family brought a dozen people to this place with and pole. On the other hand, they didn't bother with the grandmother, so they beat Old Man Ye directly. If the grandfather hadn't come forward, Old Man Ye's legs would also be lame.
Later, the uncle made the decision and asked the aunt to marry to Xiangshe Village. It didn't matter that he would not be bullied under his nose. Ye Ning was not clear about the details. I heard from the villagers that the aunt introduced her in-law relative to Ye Qingshan. Ye Qingshan disagreed, and married Li Fang. The two brothers and sisters were a little unhappy about this. In the end, it was his brother. When Ye Qingshan got married, his aunt was also considered rich and able to contribute. Later it seemed to be with Li Fang. After a conflict, Ye Qingshan helped Li Fang, and then the two brothers and sisters had less contact.
"It's time to call, let's call it personally." The mother-in-law is elder, and they also need to ask her uncle to come out to help.
Write down all the people you want to invite, and Ye Ning took out a piece of paper again, sorted it from the oldest to the youngest, and took it to San Shugong again.
"Your uncle wants to ask, nothing else is a big problem, but you still have to add a few people. These are usually good relations with your dad. I will write them out. You can ask them for help and have them help. It's a lot easier for you." San Shugong wrote three names, and then handed them to Ye Ning so that she could prepare them first.
Ye Ning nodded. There were indeed a lot of things, and she had to ask the neighbor's uncle next door to help carry the coffin. I actually said this before, but I have to say it again.
Not long after arriving home, Ye Ning heard a knock on the door outside, opened the door and saw that it was the people with the names just written by her uncle.
"Uncle Zifu, why are you here?" Ye Ning hurriedly invited them into the house.
"We won't go in. We just came to ask if there is anything we can do to help. Just say it." Ye Zifu looked at the pale Ye Ning and took out an envelope from his pocket. "It costs a lot of money to do funerals. , You just joined work, Xiaolan and Xiaoan are both in school, the cost must be very high, this is our little intention, first hold the flowers, we will find a solution if it is not enough."
Ye Ning looked at the money stuffed into her palms, and her heart was heavy. These three uncles were brothers wearing a pair of trousers with Ye Qingshan. The conditions at home were not good. Although I don’t know how much money is in it, they must have made it for a long time. money.
Ye Ning returned the money to Ye Zifu, "Uncle Zifu, you should also know that I sold the land at home, so the family actually has some money. It’s okay to do funerals. You can take the money back. If you really need it, I’ll do it again. I'll find it for you,"
Several big men are not very talkative people, Ye Zifu held the money, and said uneasily: "Then tell me if you want to use it."
"Definitely." Ye Ning thought for a while, and she really needs the help of three people. "Uncle, the day after tomorrow, Master Wu will come to fix the acupuncture point. At that time, he will dig the tomb. The stones will be transported up tomorrow. Please help me if this matters."
The three of them nodded hurriedly when they heard it could help, "Don't worry, I will find someone to pull the stone, and I will pull it up the day after tomorrow."
Sending off the three uncles, the third sister and brother went to the uncle's house next door to ask them to help carry the coffin again. It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when they got home, and the people from the old house came over.
"Ye Ning...you don't find your grandfather for the big funeral of your father, but Ye Laosan? I think you are really going to be weaned here, right?" Aunt Ye Ning helped her stepmother. Looks ignorant. ,,,
