33 [Let me come out]
Gao Shuyan is similar to her father, she is kind-hearted and shy.
In high school, I didn’t act like a powerful person in the class just because my father was the head teacher.
I have always been very low-key, the key is to study well.
In the end, I got admitted to university as I wished, and it was a first-class student.
He is the only person who got into the first university in Chen Yang and won her father's face. He is so low-key. Every time he talks about his daughter, he can't hide his smile.
Chen Yang had little intersection with Gao Shuyan in his previous life, but he was just a very ordinary classmate relationship. Every time he came to Teacher Gao's house, he basically couldn't meet her.
After Teacher Gao passed away, he gradually broke off contact.
I just heard that Gao Shuyan did not stay in a big city after graduating from university, but chose to return to Haishi, as if she had been admitted to a civil servant from a certain department.
She did this to take care of her mother as bad as she was.
Later I heard that the marriage was not going well, so I got married twice, but it did not continue successfully.
In short, vaguely, fate has never favored her in most cases, and is a relatively lonely woman.
Chen Yang thought about it now, this girl’s life trajectory is similar to his previous life. She only refers to marriage. She is thirty or forty years old, and she is still alone in the end.
Kneel down and ordered a few pieces of paper for Teacher Gao, kowtowed again, Chen Yang got up and walked to his teacher's wife Wu Xinfang, and helped him up to comfort him, "Aunt Fang, people cannot be resurrected, you must take care of your health."
After saying that.
Chen Yang's eyes were a little sore.
Even though I have been a human being for two lifetimes and have seen many things, why can’t I feel touched when I encounter such a scene? People’s hearts are still fleshy after all.
"Shuyan, we are all here. If you have any questions, just say a word."
Regardless of whether Gao Shuyan still has an impression of him or whether he knows him, Chen Yang spoke sincerely.
Since he has come today, the condolences are only one thing, and on the other hand, as the squad leader Feng Shigui said, what should they live like to do.
On the way.
Chen Yang had already discussed with Jia Sihong that he would help Teacher Gao's family with some things until it was officially buried.
Teacher Gao has no son. He only relies on Gao Shuyan as a daughter. This is the case now. What should I do if there is no help?
"Oh, fortunately you two are here. We don't have to talk about anything and don't bother to say hello. Just help with whatever you can."
Come out of the gate.
As soon as Chen Yang lit a cigarette, the squad leader Feng Shigui walked over with a tired face.
He arrived here early in the morning and has been busy until now. He has been doing trivial matters and notifying Chen Yang and the others one by one. Until now, let alone eating, he doesn't even have to drink saliva.
There is nothing we can do about this.
He was the class monitor and his eldest son. He was older than Chen Yang and the others. After he had not been admitted to college, he went home to farm.
My family lives nearby, and is the same village as Teacher Gao, and the two families are usually close to each other.
Now that Teacher Gao suddenly passed away, he had to stand up and take charge of the overall situation due to his feelings and reason.
I just walked around inside and outside and found that there were quite a few classmates.
But most of them are women.
These people can help comfort the family.
It would be far from letting them do some hard work.
"How is it like you two digging a hole? Have you dug it before?"
Feng Shigui patted Chen Yang on the shoulder. Teacher Gao not only had one daughter, but also one brother of his generation. He fled from other places in the 1980s to settle down.
The family is thin and has no portals.
Now there is no one.
Even the relatives who dug a grave pit can't be found.
The surrounding residents are happy to help.
But I didn't dare to let them all go. I needed manpower to set up tents and attract spiritual things (feudal superstition, also known as the custom of funeralism).
When he saw Chen Yang, he intended to ask Chen Yang and Jia Sihong to work with several leaders to find a cemetery in Houcun and dig the pit as soon as possible.
It was not because Feng Shigui looked down on Chen Yang that he asked him to do such work.
The main reason is that he had heard that Chen Yang was working as a repairman and had good physical strength, so it was just right to do this kind of work.
To be honest, when we were together at school, Feng Shigui and Chen Yang had a relatively good relationship.
I played basketball together, and I also had a fight with other classes because of playing basketball.
But after graduation, everyone's fate was different, and they went their separate ways. There was no chance to meet all year round, so they gradually became unfamiliar.
"This is no problem, how do you arrange it for us?" Chen Yang agreed with a smile.
Since you are ready to help, there is no need to be picky.
Besides, it is natural to be a student, it is natural to dig a tomb for the deceased mentor.
Then he went to dig a hole with several nearby villagers.
If we were not a farmer or a young man like Chen Yang, we would be very quick to do work.
It took only two hours before the tomb pit to be dug.
Onmyoji (a folk artist similar to a wizard) walked around the tomb pit for a few times. After a while, Chen Yang and his team finished their work and carried shovels back to the yard.
It was less than twelve o'clock at noon.
Gao Shuyan's situation is much better than when Chen Yang first came.
After all, she was a sensible girl. She knew that it was not the time to cry, so she endured her grief and began to do her father's funeral with Feng Shigui.
Seeing Chen Yang and the others coming back from digging a hole, they also came over to express their gratitude. "Chen Yang, thank you so much. I'm so tired of someone to wash my face."
Gao Shuyan squeezed out a smile and led Chen Yang and the others to the room next to the mourning hall.
This house was where Teacher Gao lived during his lifetime and contained a washbasin.
"You don't have to worry about us. If you have any trouble, just say something. We are not outsiders." Chen Yang replied. He thought Gao Shuyan couldn't recognize him, but he didn't expect that he not only knew him, but also directly said his name.
Human nature is a very complex thing.
Two hours ago, when Chen Yang came, there were indeed many classmates inside and outside the yard.
But at this moment, most of the time has passed.
There are only about ten people left.
As soon as I heard that I wanted to help, I just ran away.
Anyway, once Teacher Gao has not, they have nothing to do with this family. It is already considered to be a dedication to buy a wreath to pay tribute to him today.
There are many people who think this way.
And to put it bluntly, nothing wrong.
Fortunately, Teacher Gao was very popular before his death, and the villagers nearby volunteered to help. Even the teachers from No. 1 Middle School came to pay their respects from time to time.
After Chen Yang and the others washed their faces and took a break, they started to get busy again.
The tent has been set up.
But I have not bought any wine, ingredients, and mourning clothes that are needed for funeral customs.
From a distance, Chen Yang saw Feng Shigui standing at the gate with a embarrassed look on his face and smoking.
I walked over and asked, and I found out that I had no money to make a fuss.
Feng Shigui can be a chief manager and help Gao Shuyan get the funeral of Teacher Gao, say something, shout, greet relatives, friends and organizations, and there is no problem.
But when it comes to money, there is no way.
First of all, he is a farmer himself, and his family is not in good condition. The crops in the fields have not yet been harvested this year.
Secondly, Teacher Gao was brought back from the hospital this morning. In order to see a doctor, Gao Shuyan and her daughter had already spent all their savings at home.
I really can't afford to pay for the funeral for a while.
"How much does it take"
Chen Yang asked.
The most frustrating thing in this world is that he has no money at a critical moment, and he can understand this feeling.
"Oh, I don't know the specifics. Shuyan asked her relatives and friends and raised 5,000 yuan. I can take out 800 yuan, and I guess she has to prepare 10,000 yuan."
Feng Shigui sighed.
These days, ordinary people spend funerals, and they cost about 15,000 yuan. There is no way, just buying a coffin will cost several thousand yuan.
"I just asked a few classmates, but everyone didn't have much money. I tried to find a way to raise another 2,700 yuan. There is still a gap of more than 7,000 yuan."
There are some things that Feng Shigui is hard to say, so I can only say that no one has much money.
Actually, Chen Yang understood what was going on without saying it.
"I'll pay the remaining money," Chen Yang thought for a moment, then looked up and said.
Chapter completed!
