Chapter 1342: : Cremation

When Xu Peipei and other villagers approached the cemetery that was enclosed on three sides, Xu Peipei saw that the large cemetery was divided into two small cemeteries. One of the tombstones in this cemetery was written with grandfather Yang Aba, and the tombstone in the other cemetery was written The second grandfather Yang Ajiu.
Xu Peipei didn’t know these two people. A villager said,
These Yang Aba and Yang Ajiu are brothers. They were still grazing cattle among the landlords of Yangjiagou before 4.8 years. At that time, both of them were 40 years old. How old, when there was an army passing through Maji Town, the two went to join the army. After the war was over, the two were getting older, and they might have returned to Yangjiagou without any military merits."
When Xu Peipei heard that there was still such an incident in it, she hurriedly wrote it down. As she continued to ask, the villager said: "The two came back because they were soldiers, and they became officials in the village because of their prestige. It has been passed down to the current generation of Yang Dagui."
In fact, more than this, the older generation knows that after the two brothers came back, they were very prestigious, not only because of the land reform, but also every family got their fields from the landlord.
It's even more because the two people used to let the cattle of the village landlord's family, and now their status is completely reversed. Therefore, in later times, the landlord's family was fought miserably by the two brothers and even Yang Aba's son Yang Guoqiang.
These things passed, and the villagers didn't talk about it.
However, now they brought the female reporter Xu Peipei here, not to see the tombstones of the two brothers, not to see that their cemetery was well repaired, but because there was one thing that made these villagers want to destroy the two cemeteries. Up.
Because the country has been promoting cremation in recent years, except for those ethnic minority areas, basically, cremation has been promoted.
For this reason, in the eyes of the country, cremation is better than burial. A lot of land resources can be left, and there is no need to waste those land resources, because there are more people in China and less land. If a lot of land resources can be left, it is naturally best.
Out of such considerations, the country must have a good original intention, and many citizens in the city also agree.
However, in rural areas, compared with cremation, burial has been practiced since ancient times. In addition to the significance and customs, few people are willing to cremation after death, and later generations are also unwilling.
On the other hand, in rural areas, whether it is burial or cremation, after death, posterity will prepare a coffin and put it in the coffin before burying it. In fact, the size of the cemetery is the same.
Therefore, from this point of view, cremation does not leave any land resources other than burial. In fact, it is still the same.
However, if it is a burial, the corpse inside has already melted during the second change of burial, and some bones are still placed in a cinerary urn, and still occupy those places.
It's just that the above policy is like that, so the implementation of the above is always violent, even very strict, which has exceeded the original intention and scope of the country.
Like the situation here in Yangjiagou, not to mention 100% consent to the burial, but it is also 99%, and the last one may not matter.
Even if Yang Dagui's family is gone, it is still burial instead of cremation.
It is precisely because of this that greater unfairness has occurred.
On the one hand, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal, or if an accident occurs and the person is gone, apart from asking someone to do the work, the other is the practice of burial.
However, cremation is now being implemented. If there is any burial, village officials such as Yang Dagui will definitely make a confirmation immediately. If the deceased’s family members are unwilling to pay the village committee as a cover fee, they will call In the crematorium in the city, let the crematorium come over and dig out the dead even if buried underground, and then take them to the crematorium in the city for cremation.
On the surface, this Yang Dagui family is strictly implementing the country's cremation policy. However, in fact, it was for the benefit of his family.
If you don’t give money, call the crematorium immediately. If you give money, then you can discuss it. In the end, you will be buried on the mountain.
This kind of thing is not once, but many times, and it has aroused the outrage of Yangjiagou many times. However, Yang Dagui's family is powerful and has many connections. In the end, either the deceased in the family is dragged to the urban crematorium, or he can only give Yang Dagui's money.
After Xu Peipei wrote it down, she was no longer surprised, but what made her wonder that, even if the Yang Dagui family was deeply rooted in Yangjiagou, it would not have been until now that no one came down to investigate.
In fact, there are still many other issues, but Xu Peipei doesn’t need to look at it anymore, because the information investigated now is enough for her to sort out. She believes that as long as it is published in the "Anhui Daily", it will definitely be headline news. Shi was afraid that it was not only a sensation in Anwei, but also on the Internet.
"Then, do you know why the people above suddenly came down to investigate this time?" Xu Peipei asked.
In fact, as a female reporter who has just officially joined the Anhui Daily, she has not been influenced by other reporters and has no other bad habits.
And after receiving a call from the head of the newspaper office, she immediately went to a meeting, drove with other reporters, and followed the provincial government investigation team overnight.
However, she felt that it was impossible for reporters to follow them for no reason!
"I know, it's the young guest from Yang Jianguo." The villagers said.
If at the beginning, I only learned that a rich man driving a famous car came to Yangjiagou's house, then this would be of interest to those villagers.
However, these villagers did not expect that this young visitor had just arrived in Yangjiagou for less than two days. Because Yang Jianguo’s younger brother Yang Jianjun’s family was beaten by the village chief’s family, he directly sent the people above to investigate.
From this point, the villagers guessed that the young man Ye Chen's identity was not simple. He was probably the son of a big official, or even the son of a big official in the provincial government.
These villagers are very interested in these things. They often see the wind but the rain, so now when they hear Xu Peipei ask, they still feel strange.
"Then do you know his identity?" Xu Peipei asked.
"I don't know, I just heard that he may be the son of a certain high official, and he is very nice and willing to do good for the people." A villager said.
Xu Peipei smiled when she heard it. She knew that these villagers thought that way. However, what she knew about Ye Chen only knew that Ye Chen was a disciple of Shanghai TCM master Liao Wenen.
