Chapter 49 Changyuqiao also plays the piano in such sadness
While the people at the coffin shop were changing their feng shui, everyone was waiting quietly. With the suona and lion dance, time seemed to pass quickly.
"Let's take a look. We have changed the location of the tomb in another direction, raised the coffin, and reserved a rain channel around it. Even if it rains heavily, it will be no problem."
Song Tingran only thought it looked good and asked Sang Cheng, "What do you think?"
"Everyone listens to the wife."
This meant satisfaction. Song Tingran nodded. The shopkeeper of the coffin shop took out two thick firecrackers and lit them before digging the grave. The crackling sound was loud.
"Lower the coffin."
The voice was strong and powerful, and the helpers at the coffin shop did not waste a moment. They worked very neatly and quickly put the coffin smoothly.
As the nails were hammered in one by one, Sang Cheng's tears fell one by one. At noon in the bright sun, the tombstone stood in front of the grave. In front of it was a brazier, and the paper money inside turned to ashes.
"This joy and mourning is complete here."
The shopkeeper of the coffin shop did his best and was sweating profusely from his work. Song Tingran said that the funeral meal was well prepared and he wanted to keep the group of them and leave after the meal.
The owner of the coffin shop had not planned to leave food at first. He thought that the cost of funerals would be high and he also wanted to save some money. But since the owner asked, there was no shirk in this business, so he agreed.
Sang Cheng held the memorial tablets of his parents in his arms, which Song Ranzhuan ordered to make. Because of the tombstones and coffins, they could not take them away for the time being. Moreover, Sang Cheng also said that his mother grew up here, so I am afraid. Don't want to leave.
In this way, it is appropriate to leave with the tablet.
The courtyard of the village chief's house is indeed big, but it can't accommodate the whole village. Everyone spontaneously moved the tables from home and placed them on the roadside, which was the same.
This whole pig frightened the coffin shop owner and asked: "How many people are eating this, how could it be so grand?"
"As for the villagers of Fenghua Village, everyone is looking for good luck. Don't they all say that the more happiness there is, the more blessings the deceased will have?"
"This is exactly the reason. According to my experience over the years, there is no problem for the person who was buried just now to be reincarnated into a wealthy family and live a happy life."
Sang Cheng was very happy to hear what the coffin shop owner said, and Song Tingran was also satisfied.
Sang Cheng has been busy in the kitchen. Everyone is very friendly to him and teases him about Song Tingran from time to time. His face is full of happiness.
Because this wedding banquet was prepared early in the morning, and there were many people, it was ready in a short time.
The village chief was entrusted by Song Tingran and stood at the front to speak: "Folks of Fenghua Village, the bad guys have been punished. Our village will never allow bad guys to go unpunished. If everyone works together, the days in the future will definitely get better and better. "
He coughed to hide his nervousness. After all, he was the first to preside over such a big event, and continued: "Sang Cheng is a good boy, and everyone has watched him grow up. Now he has a good home, and we are all happy for him. This time The whole village is invited to the funeral banquet to bring blessings to our village. Every now and then, during the holidays, everyone helps to weed the tomb and visit."
There was thunderous applause. The village chief walked down on crutches and signaled that he wanted Song Tingran to say a few words. She refused directly and said something in Sang Cheng's ear.
Sang Cheng was shocked and didn't dare to go up to speak. Song Tingran directly pulled him up and supported him.
"Thank you everyone, the funeral banquet has officially begun."
A brief sentence made Sang Cheng feel reborn. It turned out that life could still be like this. Wang Nianyun looked at him and Song Tingran below, and suddenly felt relieved. She had not been married for so many years, and it was time to make good plans for herself.
Pots of pork were served, chicken stewed with mushrooms, duck stewed with beans, etc. The cucumbers, cabbage, etc. that we usually eat seemed to be a relief, and our mouths were full of oil.
During this period, many people came to talk to Song Tingran and Sang Cheng. The excitement lasted for more than an hour and has not yet subsided.
"Sang Cheng, if that evil family has less than two taels of silver, we will give it to you, but we can't take the house away. It's up to you to decide, let's just leave it here, or sell it."
Sang Cheng thought about it and decided to sell it. If this was what Sang Xue had hoped for back then, and it would be used as a dowry, his life would be easier. Now, since he has nothing to contribute at home, it can be regarded as a subsidy.
Song Tingran found the village chief who was still having a meal and explained the reason. The village chief immediately asked around and found out that there happened to be a family whose daughter was getting married and wanted to build a house. If there was one for sale, it would save effort. .
"These are two houses that are connected together. We don't need to change them back. It's the best of both worlds. But we don't want the things inside. Let's see if we can negotiate a good price."
The village chief understood what Song Tingran meant and called the family. He acted as a guarantee and led the two families to negotiate the price.
Personal belongings such as the clothes of Sang Hui's family will naturally be thrown away, but the iron pots and tables can still be used. Sang Xue's affairs are over, and buyers are not so taboo.
In the end, this house that could be moved in at any time, plus a large front yard, was sold for a total of two taels of silver. It was not much, but it could be disposed of quickly, and it also caused a worry.
Song Tingran gave all the money to Sang Cheng. He was determined not to take it, no matter what he said. He used to be very obedient, but now he seemed a little rebellious. In the end, she took it away, but brought it with him. A few dozen pennies, just in case of emergencies.
"My dear wife, I feel sorry for you. I spent a lot of money on weddings and funerals. I'm actually very torn, happy and sad at the same time."
"I understand, I did this for my mother-in-law and father-in-law, and I also thought about Sang Hui and several other children. If he comes back in the future and causes trouble, I'm afraid the dead will not be able to rest in peace. It's better to do this. If there is trouble in the future, the whole village will be affected." They will all help us deal with them."
Sang Cheng nodded instantly and understood.
In the afternoon, the coffin shop owner and his team were preparing to return to Changkou Town, and happened to take Song Tingran and Sang Cheng there. However, because it was already close to evening, there were no oxcarts going to Shuiyue Village for the time being.
So Song Tingran and Sang Cheng stayed at the inn. They only had one room with only one bed. Sang Cheng was very excited. When he was groping for where to take a shower, he suddenly found his wife sitting in front of the window. , leaning his head down to look at something, very focused.
He walked over and took a look. It turned out that there was a small restaurant not far away. There were performers playing the piano upstairs. Song Tingran and even Sang Cheng were not aware that Sang Cheng was approaching.
Sang Cheng sighed slightly in his heart and sat beside her to keep her company. At this moment, Song Tingran only felt that this scene seemed to have been seen somewhere before.
Chang Yuqiao also played the piano in such a sad way at the beginning, but he played much better than this man whose appearance he couldn't see clearly.
