Chapter 180 Taking over the job(1/2)

In the early morning, there were already people with shovels standing on the graves that had been dug long ago.

A bit of cold wind blew in, causing their hands to turn a little red, and a trace of redness touched their cheeks.

The pit had been dug a long time ago. I came here this morning to prepare for the burial and to pat the soil on both sides of the pit to make it more solid.

Looking at the potholes that had formed in front of them, their expressions gradually improved.

"ha!"

He breathed into his hand, but before he had time to warm it up, it was blown away by the wind.

Xu Gu grabbed the shovel with both hands and looked at the pothole with complex eyes:

"It's done, that's it! How many hard-working brothers are there!"

"good!"

Outside the pit, several men holding shovels nodded.

They are the same age group as Xu Gu, and they will always be there if anything happens, helping each other and taking care of each other.

This time Xu Gu's father left, so naturally these people came to help.

As the material conditions of each family improve, there are very few such hands-on burials. Many people are buried directly in the cemetery, and relevant staff are directly there to help. All they have to do is pay for the whole process. More people

, all seem to like cremation.

Mr. Xu Bai chose a tomb like this, and it was in a wilderness, so naturally he had to dig it with his own hands.

After sizing up the pothole in front of them, they each came back to their senses and looked around to see if there was anything left here, ready to take it all away.

"Okay, Xu Gu, go back!"

Xu Gu, who had been standing outside the grave pit, looking at the pit in a daze, was called back to his thoughts by the people around him.

After following them, I packed up shovels and other items and drove back.

While on the road, everyone was talking and laughing, and there were no serious topics.

Xu Gu was also led and did not think deeply about it. After such a sad thing happened, everyone would usually think of other things to help the family members come out, so as not to be too sad. Looking at everyone's lively atmosphere,

Xu Gu did not remain silent in grief.

Chatting and laughing with everyone together.

When he looked at his father's grave today, he always felt a little numb, as if he were looking at someone else's burial ground indifferently. He hated himself like this.

But it's true, that's what's going on in my mind.

The vehicle safely returned to the mourning hall, and after a few more rituals, it was time to prepare for raising the spirit and transporting the coffin to the cemetery for burial.

Uncle Quan and Xiao Ding had been waiting here early, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

This kind of thing doesn't stop halfway through. It's tradition to start and end, so they can't miss any link.

Seeing the two people waiting at the scene, Xu Gu cast a grateful look.

This time, thanks to the two of us, there was less trouble.

There are many things that I don’t understand, but Uncle Quan can help me with them, so it’s not too troublesome.

"Uncle Quan, Brother Ding, you are here!"

Xu Gu quickly handed over the cigarette stuffed in his pocket to the two of them.

"Well, isn't this going to the field today? Everything is ready. We can't be absent, can we?"

Uncle Quan took the cigarette naturally and said in a hoarse voice.

Xiao Ding on the side shook his head and said he didn't smoke.

Xu Gu nodded and smiled warmly:

"Thank you!"

He put down the cigarette in his hand again and did not smoke himself. He only smoked it for the friends who came to pay homage.

The work of smoking and drinking must not be stopped here, and a cook was hired to feed the suona team and the people who helped with the work.

These are unwritten rules, but they are indispensable.

Without one, the sense of ceremony will be insufficient, and it will also discourage those who come to help.

It looks like the scene is almost ready.

The suona team played another song before lifting the coffin and heading to the cemetery where they were buried.

There were only clothes inside the coffin, so it was very light.

Uncle Quan and Xiao Ding followed the crowd and followed the coffin-carrying team.

The Suona team leads the way.

As soon as the suona sounded, thousands of taels of gold and countless tears fell to the ground.

More and more people followed, and they knew that everyone who was supposed to be buried would come.

Uncle Quan came here not only for his own work, but also for Su Chen's high salary.

It is also to sincerely pay homage to Mr. Xu Bai.

Xu Bai, who is not older than himself, but has experienced more things than himself, and his encounters are touching, deserves a trip by himself.

Being able to help out is considered a blessing.

Normally, there would be such good people in the village.

Everyone is rushing to help, for fear of being late for others. It is a blessing for everyone to be able to bury such a person. After all, someone has done good things during his lifetime, and people are willing to help from the bottom of his heart, let alone

Because of superstition, I am more willing to help Yi Er.

It's hard to be a good person in this world.

People, it's more difficult to do.

Seeing the coffin-carrying team in front of him getting more and more steady, Uncle Quan felt that the corners of his eyes were a little blurry, and he couldn't see clearly what was ahead.

At this time, Xiao Ding approached from the side.

Holding his arm with one hand, he walked like this without saying a word.

Uncle Quan was helped by him and he came back to his senses slightly.

I just remembered that when Su Chen's father was buried, those old guys were still there at that time, and Wei Lingze had not yet become rich. Everyone buried Mr. Su with his own hands with a heavy sigh. In those days, Mr. Su also buried him with his own hands.

He is a really good person, so at the same time, he is the poorest person who touches dead people's business.

Without him, all the money is given to the big guys.

distributed to the village.

Basically everyone has enjoyed some benefits, all thanks to Boss Su. He was willing to work and lead everyone to make money, and he also did not forget to support the village. Such a good man was also sent away by Batai Suona when he was buried.

.

The scene was countless times bigger than this.

After all, I came into contact with this business. It would be shameful if I left with less honor!

Those old guys were not stingy at that time. Lao Wei, who usually paid a lot of money, raised money together to pay for the funeral and sent Mr. Su away in a glorious manner. At that time, everyone was serious about it.

Friendship is not so fancy.

Now, all the brothers are walking around and getting rich.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I don’t know when we will meet again, let alone the friendship we had in the past.

We can't even see each other in person, so it's a bit ridiculous to mention these friendships.

Some time ago, I heard that Wei Lingze had become the boss, but he had faded away and everyone stopped interacting with him.

Maybe it’s because I haven’t touched this job for a long time. Now that I see the coffin being carried by everyone in front of me, some complicated memories inevitably come to my mind. I can’t stop it. The suona music in my ears is like a bug.

It's the same as drilling into a person's ear. After it gets in, it will stab you in the heart.

Who can't hold back tears?

For a time, many women were supporting each other, crying and fussing.

Most of them are direct blood relatives who can cry so clearly and miserably.

My grandpa howled once or twice, and there were tears, but I couldn't cry.

Looking at the coffin, they felt sad and admired Xu Bai.

He just left like this, and there was nothing anyone could do to save him.

There were also people at the cemetery who responded in advance, and the paper fires that had been prepared long ago were all going to be burned here.

There were also some old clothes that were burned together according to their traditional rules.

So, the coffin was settled and the earth crown was covered.

When a new grave is first opened, paper and clothes are burned, and wine is spread on the ground.
