"Bang!"

In his sleep, Zhou Yang was awakened by a dull sound!

When I opened my eyes, I saw it was pitch black outside. It was obviously not bright yet.

Just when he was confused, two loud noises came from outside again.

This time Zhou Yang recognized it, it was the sound of firecrackers.

Li Youwei was also awakened and asked in a daze: "What's going on?"

"I don't know who it is, the firecrackers are going off in the middle of the night!" Zhou Yang replied.

Hearing this, Li Youwei suddenly sat up from the kang, and then said hurriedly: "How many times did it ring?"

"It seems like three sounds, what's wrong?"

"Someone must have died!"

Zhou Yang also remembered that there is a custom in Yunshan County of firing a "soul-chasing cannon" after someone dies.

That is, if someone dies in the family, relatives will immediately sound a few "two kicks".

The meaning of firing firecrackers is not to celebrate, but to see off and clear the way.

The three blasts of the cannon express the hope that everything will be smooth, safe and smooth for your loved ones in another world.

Of course, in addition to this, I also wanted to notify the villagers to come and help.

After all, weddings, weddings, and weddings are big "businesses" these days. If you have a big family, your own family can handle it.

But for those small households, it would be really difficult if outsiders don’t help.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yang immediately got up and put on his clothes, preparing to go out to see the situation.

When Li Youwei saw Zhou Yang getting dressed, she immediately said: "I guess Grandpa Chen is gone. If you go out, you can walk in the direction of his house!"

The village is such a big place and there are only a few people there. Basically everyone in the village knows who has an elderly person and how they are doing.

After Zhou Yang responded, he went out!

When Zhou Yang came out of the house, Fan Debiao and Liu Yunlong also got up, and they were standing in the yard observing the situation outside.

After seeing these two people, Zhou Yang asked in surprise: "When did you two get up?"

"The first cannon shot!" Fan Debiao said.

Both of them are elites of the special service department. Even though they live in Zhou Yang's house, in their eyes, they are performing tasks.

Therefore, even if you sleep at night, you don't take off your clothes. If there is any movement, you can jump into battle at any time.

"Which direction did the firecrackers come from?" Zhou Yang asked again.

"Southwest of the village!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang was stunned.

No, Mr. Chen is living with his eldest son Chen Jianming, and Chen Jianming's house is in the middle of the village, at the back, not in the southwest at all.

"Are you sure it's the southwest direction?" Zhou Yang asked again.

"I'm sure, and if nothing else happens, the woman from the Feng family should be gone!" Fan Debiao said.

"How do you know?"

Fan Debiao said immediately: "Have you forgotten what we do? In order to ensure the safety of the institute and all scientific researchers, we monitor every move in the village every day. We know all the big and small things that happen in the village!

"

"Why didn't I know?" Zhou Yang said in surprise.

"This is arranged by Lao Gu and I. Lao Gu has the final say on safety matters!" Fan Debiao said.

"Then you should report to me too!" Zhou Yang frowned.

"Lao Gu knew that you had feelings for the village, and he was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it, so he didn't tell you!"

Then Fan Debiao continued: "But we have already told your father-in-law and Comrade Li Jianguo about this matter, and they also think that we should try not to tell you about this matter!"

Although Zhou Yang felt uncomfortable, he felt relieved when he thought that the special agent had his own work plan.

And although the special services are nominally under the control of the research institute, in fact they are their own system.

For example, in Qingcheng's Eye of the Sky project, Nie Nansun is nominally the top person in charge of the institute, but in fact Nie Nansun is only responsible for scientific research, and Yang Donghai is responsible for other aspects.

In most cases, Nie Nansun needed to discuss matters other than scientific research with Yang Donghai, rather than giving direct orders.

The same goes for the Babaoliang Research Institute. He is responsible for scientific research and Gu Chenghua is responsible for security.

Fortunately, his prestige in the institute is extremely high, and Gu Chenghua has to listen to him in most situations.

After a brief silence, Zhou Yang asked again: "Lao Fan, is the woman from the Feng family you are talking about Feng Liujin's wife Zhou Xiufang?"

"Well, according to the information we have, Zhou Xiufang's condition suddenly worsened some time ago. Although Feng Liujin sent her to the county hospital for treatment for a long time, the effect was not good!"

Zhou Yang knew about Zhou Xiufang's situation. She was injured when she gave birth to a child in the early years and lost her ability to work.

In recent years, there have been good and bad times. If Feng Liujin hadn't spared no effort to help her treat her illness, she might have died long ago.

It seems that this time the oil is really running out!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yang sighed, and then said: "Yunlong, you stay here to guard the house, and Lao Fan and I will go over and see what we can do to help!"

"yes!"

Afterwards, Zhou Yang took Fan Debiao and left the house!

Feng Liujin's house is not very far from Zhou Yang's new home. One is in the northwest and the other is in the southwest. The straight-line distance is only two to three to four hundred meters.

After a while, the two of them arrived at the door of his house.

Sure enough, Feng Liujin's house was brightly lit at this time, and there were many people in the yard. You could even hear the cries of adults and children.

As soon as he entered the yard, Zhou Yang saw his father-in-law Li Fengnian, his eldest brother Li Jianguo, and his fourth brother Li Guoqiang in the crowd. A large group of them were carrying a coffin and walking out of the woodshed.

Zhou Yang was not surprised at all when he saw this coffin.

If there are elderly people or seriously ill family members at home in Yunshan County, coffins will be prepared in advance.

Otherwise, if the person suddenly disappears, where will he find a coffin?

Once the burial is delayed, it is a very disrespectful thing.

Zhou Xiufang has been seriously ill for many years, so it is reasonable for the Feng family to prepare a coffin.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang didn't have time to think too much and immediately called Fan Debiao to come forward to help.

Seeing Zhou Yang coming over, Li Fengnian's eyes flashed with relief.

In fact, as a son-in-law from outside, Zhou Yang didn't have to come to something like this. At most, he could just burn some paper money during the funeral to share with others.

But here he is, obviously considering himself a member of Babaoliang Village.

Seeing that Zhou Yang was about to step forward to help, Li Fengnian immediately said: "Just watch from the side, no need to get started!"

Zhou Yang thought there was some taboo in the village, so he didn't show off, so he and Fan Debiao stopped and stood aside to watch.

After the young adults in the village carried out the coffin, they immediately called Feng Liujin's eldest son and asked him to clean the dust on the coffin, which would be like cleaning the house for his mother.

In the village, cleaning the coffin after a death, carrying the soul tablet of the deceased, and carrying the head of the tree at the grave are usually done by the eldest son.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that when Feng Liujin's eldest son Dajun came over, his second uncle Feng Qi was accompanying him.

Afterwards, Feng Qi took his nephew to clean his sister-in-law's coffin.

Seeing this scene, many elderly people in the village couldn't help crying.

Everyone knows the situation of the Feng family. When Zhou Xiufang got married, her father-in-law and mother-in-law had already passed away. Instead of leaving them any valuable inheritance, they also left her a young brother-in-law.

However, the kind-hearted Zhou Xiufang not only did not dislike this brother-in-law, but actually loved him very much.

It can be said that Feng Qi was brought up by her.

Now that Zhou Xiufang is gone, it is reasonable for Feng Qi to clean her coffin personally.

Just thinking about the young children of the Feng family, and thinking about Zhou Xiufang who died before she was forty years old, everyone couldn't help but feel sad!
