The news of Chen Yang's return had spread throughout the village the next day.
Quite a few people came to say hello to Chen Yang.
That is to say, there is no shortage of anything now. If we had followed the previous custom, someone might have given us food and rice.
When Chen Yang got up, Aunt Xiu was still sleeping in bed.
We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we spent a lot of time last night.
Of course, Aunt Xiu was already awake when Chen Yang got up, but she just didn't want to get up.
After Chen Yang got up, Aunt Xiu also got up.
Chen Yang came to the food street alone and saw Lu Xuewei busy there from a distance.
"Sister-in-law!" Chen Yang stepped forward to say hello.
"You're back?" Lu Xuewei glanced at him, her eyes obviously very happy, but she restrained herself and just glanced at him and looked away, "What do you want to eat?"
"You know!" Chen Yang smiled.
"Sit down and I'll serve it to you!"
Not long after, a piece of soup and a piece of food were served.
After it was served, Lu Xuewei sat in front of Chen Yang and stopped working.
"Isn't it very busy now?" Chen Yang said while eating, "Sit in front of me and not go to work?"
Lu Xuewei looked at Chen Yang and suddenly grabbed his hand a little awkwardly: "Promise me not to scare my sister-in-law so much, okay?"
Chen Yang's heart moved.
"You can't get through the phone these days, and there's no news from me. Do you know how scared I am?" Lu Xuewei's eyes started to become red and swollen, "You heartless guy, you came back yesterday and didn't even come to see me. Are you?
Didn't you forget me?"
If there weren't so many people, Chen Yang couldn't help but want to hold her in his arms.
"Sister-in-law, I promise that nothing like this will happen again in the future."
Lu Xuewei then let go of his hand and said, "Are you looking for Third Grandpa?"
"Well!" Chen Yang nodded and said, "Four days later, my mother and father will be buried together. It can be regarded as fulfilling their wishes. I can't do much else, I can only do this.
Already."
"It's already very good!" Lu Xuewei said, "There are many things that you can't control. It's already amazing that you can do what you are now!"
Chen Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"By the way, come to my house tonight and my sister-in-law will prepare delicious food for you." Lu Xuewei said.
Chen Yang nodded.
"Go on, you go get busy first. Since you have to do such a useless thing, there are still a lot of things to do."
"good!"
Next, Chen Yang went to the third grandfather's house again to discuss the funeral arrangements with the third grandfather.
Third Grandpa directly called some people in the village who knew these things and assigned tasks to everyone.
The old custom in the village, such as weddings and funerals, is for everyone to help together. Not to mention that Chen Yang is now the central figure in the village, even if he is a marginal figure, everyone must help with this kind of thing.
After assigning tasks, it will be much easier to handle. This person will buy what, and what will be purchased by others.
Chen Yang didn't understand and basically could only listen.
Others soon figured it out and did their own thing.
"By the way, what are you going to do for the banquet?" Third Grandpa finally asked Chen Yang again.
"Let the village cook it ourselves!" Chen Yang said, "If we don't have enough manpower, I'll call some chefs from the villa."
"Stop shouting!" Some villagers said, "How can we not have enough manpower? Now the young people in the village don't go out much, so let them come over to help. If they are not enough, ask their wives to come over to help. Now the young people
People should come forward to take action, otherwise in the future, who will understand these rules when the village is busy with business affairs."
Others nodded.
"That's okay!" Chen Yang nodded.
"Then that's it. I'm going to come up with a menu...well, there are still four days left, so let's go ahead and prepare the dishes later."
"good!"
There are still many people in the village, and with their help, these things are actually relatively easy to handle.
Wreaths and the like are all made by specialized people.
Chen Yang could only watch.
This is usually the case for white affairs. Someone will be hired to take care of the bureau. The person doing the work only needs to pay and let them buy things. Basically, there is no need to worry about other things.
That's pretty much it for the day.
At dusk, Chen Yang came to Lu Xuewei's house.
When I looked over, I found that Lu Xuewei was the only one at home.
"Sister-in-law, where is my sister?"
"I am the only one living here now. Everyone else has moved in. My sister and the others have already bought a house and are renovating it. They will still live above the shop for the time being." Lu Xuewei said.
Chen Yang said, "That's good."
"Isn't it all thanks to you?" Lu Xuewei said while washing vegetables.
"By the way, everything is done?"
"It's the third grandpa who comes out to let people do things. I don't understand this either. He just listens and sees if there is anything else I need to do."
"You can feel at ease when you have Third Grandpa to do things!" Lu Xuewei nodded and said, "You really don't have to worry about it. You can't worry about it anyway. You don't understand these things, right?"
Chen Yang nodded, "Yes, as long as they are there, I don't understand, so I can only take a look. By the way, sister-in-law, can I help you with anything?"
"No need, just wait for your meal!"
Lu Xuewei is a good hand at housework, and she had the meal ready in a short time.
There were only two of them at home, so they started eating as soon as it was ready.
Chen Yang hadn't eaten the food she cooked for some days. After eating, he couldn't help but said: "After eating, my sister-in-law's food is still delicious. When I was in the capital, I wanted to come back and eat your food every day."
Food, but there is no way to leave, hey, now I have to eat two more bowls of rice."
"If it tastes good, eat more. I'm afraid you may be too ambitious and eat too much, and you won't like what my sister-in-law cooks!"
"How could it be?" Chen Yang shook his head and said, "I can never have enough of my sister-in-law's food."
Lu Xuewei felt slightly sweet.
After dinner, Lu Xuewei packed her things there, while Chen Yang moved a chair to sit in the yard.
It has been many days since Qingming Festival, but there is still a hint of coolness in the mountains. Of course, summer is coming soon.
Soon, Lu Xuewei put away the dishes and chopsticks, then came out and sat aside and asked, "When the time comes, let's all go and give your mother a ride."
Chen Yang thought for a while and then said: "You guys should go and send it off too!"
"The people in the village have told me a long time ago!" Lu Xuewei nodded and said, "Maybe they will give me a ride then."
Chen Yang nodded, "If you want to give it away, just give it away."
"Don't be sad!" Lu Xuewei said softly, "Your mother is gone, but you still have me."
Chen Yang looked at Lu Xuewei and nodded lightly, "I'm not sad anymore. For my mother, maybe this is a good thing. She was too tired to live and barely had any rest. Now she's fine and doesn't have to worry about anything.
