Chapter 229 This coffin is not something she can carry at all
At this moment, the time has come, and my sister knocked on the window and shouted.
Tian Jiayu was a little worried, but Xu Ronghuan didn't want to worry about it at all, so he turned over and wrapped himself in quilt.
"It's so cold at night, what should I do when I get up? It's so warm under the covers!
Never mind her, if she wants to shout, just let her continue shouting.
She is so rich, but she refuses to spend all the money she spent on her father's funeral. Paying a third of it is already the end of her benevolence!
I can't ask her to pay, so why can't I bother her with this?
Go to sleep and forget about it!"
After saying that, Xu Ronghuan fell asleep.
"..."
Tian Jiayu was speechless for a moment, looked in the direction of the window, and then fell asleep with his head covered.
Sure enough, as Xu Ronghuan said, Xu Xiangning stopped knocking after a while.
Xu Xiangning was so angry that she wanted to kick open the window, climb in and drag Xu Ronghuan out.
Lu Fangyi hurriedly stopped him and said: "Forget it, Quan should show more filial piety and treat his father as a son without him."
After that, Lu Fangyi took Xu Xiangning away.
But when the two of them arrived in the main room, they found Xu Hengliang standing there.
"Sister, brother-in-law, you go to bed, I'll watch over you for the rest of the night."
"???"
Xu Xiangning and Lu Fangyi were startled. Didn’t he say during dinner that he would not keep vigil?
"You just sleep with Xin'er and the others. I've specially left a place for you, which is enough to sleep in."
With that said, Xu Hengliang sat down.
"Hengliang, thank you, thank you for your hard work tonight."
Xu Xiangning was not polite to him. It was cold and sleepy at night, and she couldn't hold on any longer.
"It's no big deal, my father has raised me for seventeen years, and it's nothing if I send him off for the last time."
No matter how much I hate him in my heart, he is still my father."
Xu Hengliang looked at Xu Jianfeng's face and really didn't understand why his father and mother were so partial.
Many families in the village are partial, but they all favor their son, but he is obviously a son too. Is it just because he is the eldest son?
Xu Hengliang was puzzled.
Xu Hengliang stayed until dawn, and Xu Ronghuan finally got up.
The coffin shop delivered the coffin, which was half a person tall!
After a while, old man Ji also came, and everyone carried Xu Jianfeng's body into the coffin and sealed it.
After eating steamed buns and pickled cabbage soup, tie the coffin with a thick rope, and then put a short wooden stick through the middle of the thick rope. Two people carry one side on each side to lift the stick up.
However, Xu Ronghuan, Xu Hengliang, and Lu Fangyi had a wooden stick on the front and back of the coffin, so it would take at least four people to lift it.
Xu Ronghuan looked around, smiled and said to Old Man Ji:
"Gilbert, could you please do me a favor and lift it aside?"
Ji Hongpeng's eyes immediately widened, as if he heard some joke, and said:
"Rong Huan, your father's coffin weighs more than 800 kilograms. It takes eight people to carry it for others. It takes eight people to carry it. Do you want to kill me, an old man like me?"
The smile on Xu Ronghuan's face suddenly stopped, but how could the three of them lift it up?
"Rong Huan, it was for your own good that you asked eight people to carry the coffin. Now we have to dig nearly two meters deep, and it will take eight people one hour to dig.
The soil underground is hard and heavy..."
Ji Hongpengdao.
But it costs money to hire someone to carry the coffin for burial, at least 200 cash for one person, and one to two to six hundred cash for eight people.
If Xu Xiangning was willing to pay, of course he would agree to the request, but Xu Xiangning was only willing to pay one-third of the money, and he had to pay for the rest.
Xu Rong said with a smile: "Gilbert, it's okay, we are very strong."
After that, Xu Ronghuan bought a long wooden stick and passed it between the two thick ropes on the front and back of the coffin, so that only two people could lift the coffin.
The coffin is taller in the front and shorter in the back, so the front is naturally heavier.
Xu Hengliang walked directly to the back and said: "Brother-in-law, let's go to the back and carry it."
Upon seeing this, Lu Fangyi followed him to the back of the coffin, while Xu Ronghuan carried the coffin to the front alone.
Xu Ronghuan knew that Xu Hengliang was angry with him, so he didn't talk nonsense to Xu Hengliang.
Moreover, he also hated Lu Fangyi. They both went to the back, and he couldn't see it but kept it in mind!
"one two three!"
After Xu Ronghuan shouted, the three of them worked hard together.
The coffin weighed more than 800 kilograms, and there was a person lying inside, totaling more than 900 kilograms. The moment the three of them lifted it up, the veins on their necks all burst out, and they felt as if their shoulders were about to be crushed!
Especially Xu Ronghuan, his whole face turned red, and he felt like the wooden stick on his shoulder was about to crush him!
"Rong Huan!"
Tian Jiayu hurriedly stepped forward and helped him carry it, but as soon as her shoulders fell under the wooden stick, her whole face changed.
This coffin is simply not something she can carry!!!
Although Tian Jiayu also does farm work on weekdays, it is only the light work of harvesting rice, and the heavy work is done by Xu Ronghuan and Xu Hengliang.
Now, with her small arms and legs, how could she lift this coffin, which weighed more than 800 kilograms?
Just as Tian Jiayu was about to leave, Xu Ronghuan immediately said sharply: "Help us carry it!"
"!!!"
Tian Jiayu's expression changed, thinking that he heard wrongly.
