Farmer's Cannon Fodder: Listen to me, the whole family, change the plot
Chapter 89: The Funeral of a Drama
Feeling that he was the eldest son, and smelling the sinful odor of his second brother's corpse, he, who had just been unhappy, also gave the appropriate orders.
"Mother! You are such a fool! The second son's body has already stank, and you didn't even tell the third son to handle the second son's funeral properly. Is it possible that the family is more important than the second son's dignity after death?"
After instructing his two sons, Su Xikui walked around his sister-in-law Song Xiuhe who was still going crazy. He felt overwhelmed and rushed into Old Lady Su's room.
Over the years, he has spent most of his time working in the town's restaurant, and only has a small amount of time going home to fulfill his filial duties.
He didn't know if it was because he had been away from home for too long, but now, looking at his mother's way of doing things, he felt that his mother, Old Lady Su, was becoming more and more disorganized and confused.
The second brother is also her biological son!
How could her own son die and then just leave his body in the house to rot and stink? The first thing she thought about was how to divide the family property.
Although he really wanted to divide the family, Su Xikui felt that the issue of dividing the family should not be brought up at this critical juncture, whether it was because his second brother Su Xishan had passed away and only his sister-in-law and a young son were left in the second house to take care of, or because Su Xishan's funeral was not urgent.
Thinking that he was the eldest son after all and had a certain status in his mother's heart, Su Xikui looked at Old Lady Su with disapproval after he entered the house.
However, he still overestimated his current status in Old Lady Su's heart, and he also attached too much importance to the fact that Su Xishan's body had already rotted but had not yet been buried in the ground.
Even though he had said so much, even though he looked at Old Lady Su with disapproval, the way Old Lady Su responded to his eyes and words was truly like a clay Buddha, with no expression at all.
Old Mrs. Su even thought that it wouldn't be a big problem to take care of Su Xishan's affairs after dividing the family property.
After all, everyone is dead, dust to dust, earth to earth, how can it be more important than the living?
In Old Lady Su's opinion, the summer labor service that required her to go to a place more than ten kilometers away to repair the river embankment was about to begin. The last time it was Su Xikui who went, and the time before that it was Su Xingfan who went. Now that Su Xishan was dead, no matter what, Su Xigen would have to go.
Her top priority now was to divide up the family property before the corvée came, and then move to the town with her beloved young son and precious granddaughter.
Once people's hearts are biased, they can never be righted, not to mention that Old Lady Su's heart has been biased for decades, and has been particularly biased in recent years.
"When someone in our village dies, the body is kept for two or three days. Isn't that the same as Xishan's body?"
Old Mrs. Su found a reason to convince herself and spoke to Su Xikui with a calm face.
Su Xikui felt more and more that he couldn't understand his mother.
However, he thought that since his father was dead, it was logically time for him, the eldest son, to be in charge. His mother was old now, so it was normal for her to be confused, so there was no need to waste words on her. He simply looked at Old Lady Su deeply, said, "She is already stinking, I'd better arrange the funeral for my second brother first," and turned and left Old Lady Su's house.
Liu Cuixiang also whispered a few words to him just now. Old Mrs. Su is now paralyzed in bed. He is not afraid that Old Mrs. Su will not care about the risk of him in the future and run out to stop him.
Not to mention that Su Xigen has already gone to see the village chief and the head of the village, so now is the time for him, the eldest son, to take charge of everything.
Su Baogui and Su Baoshou ran very fast. By the time Su Xikui entered the house to talk to Old Lady Su, the two brothers, Song and his son, had already carried a coffin over.
Although Su Xishan had various problems and was particularly patriarchal, he was indeed a good hand at working in the fields just now.
The son of Coffin Song had once asked him about the farm work, so when he came over with the coffin, he asked in great surprise:
"Why did Second Brother Su go missing for no reason? Baogui and Baoshou said he was smelly! How long has he been gone? Why didn't they notify the villagers to come and help?"
Hearing the son of Coffin Song addressing Su Xishan in a friendly manner, Su Xikui felt it was not right to let that person's words go unspoken.
"Alas, something happened yesterday. The doctor said that it was up to fate whether he could wake up or not, but he died like this. My mother was very sad and couldn't accept it. She insisted that the second son's body be kept at home. It's hot in this weather, and it smells a bit. As the eldest brother, even if my mother is reluctant, I have to let my younger brother rest in peace first!"
Having worked in the town's restaurant for so many years, Su Xikui naturally knew how to say things so that they would sound better to other people. He also knew how to say things so that others would not think that he did not take Su Xishan's death seriously.
His tone, movements and expression were extremely sad, so Coffin Song's son and Coffin Song believed it.
They were already in this line of work, so they just stepped in to help.
The crazy Song Xiuhe had already been dragged into the house by Liu Cuixiang under Su Xikui's instructions.
Liu Cuixiang knew why her husband did this, so she naturally would not hold him back. She pulled Song Xiuhe into the side room of her house and began to talk to her about Su Xishan's funeral and the upcoming division of the Su family.
Without Song Xiuhe going crazy, it was much easier and faster for the father and son Song to clean up Su Xishan and put the person into the coffin.
Su Xikui and the coffin-maker Song and his son quickened their pace when they were packing up for Su Xishan.
His plan was to pack up everything before Su Xigen invited the village chief and the head of the village to come back, and then send the coffin and the Song father and son away.
In this way, the other set of words in front of the village chief and the head of the village will not be known by the father and son Song in the coffin, and the face of their Su family will be saved.
But even though he calculated the time it took Su Xigen to go there and back carefully, he could not resist Su Xigen's excitement. He was very eager to split up the family business, and he ran to the village chief and the headman's house more than twice as fast as before.
Su Xikui and the coffin keeper Song had just put Su Xishan into the coffin when Su Xigen came back with the village chief and the head of the village.
The excited Su Xigen hadn't even entered the yard when he yelled at Zhang Chuncao to carry Old Mrs. Su out to divide the family property.
As a result, after entering the yard, there was a coffin placed in the yard, and white and black banners were arranged.
The village chief and the headman who followed him into the yard were both stunned. Then the headman, who was a little more impatient, asked:
"Someone died in your family? Who died? Why don't you rush to hold a funeral for the deceased and ask us to come and help you divide the family property? Third son of the Su family, did you say something wrong when you came here to ask for help?"
Su Xikui's face was filled with sadness, while Su Xigen's smile was still on his face.
After hearing what the head of the village said, the father and son of the coffin Song looked as if they had eaten a big spoiled news.
As for the village chief and the head of the village, especially the head of the village who had just spoken, after seeing the expressions of these people, they probably guessed where things were going and their faces suddenly turned dark.
The stalemate between the two made Su Xishan's hastily organized funeral seem particularly dramatic.
