Being pulled by the village chief, the village chief's wife could only stare fiercely at the woman who had just spoken, as if she wanted to eat her alive.
The two women saw that Chen Fan didn't say anything.
He spoke even louder.
"Oh, look, Aijun is looking at me. Look at his big eyes. He looks so much like me. He is worthy of being a descendant of my Sun family!"
"Uncle Aijun, you've been busy all day. Let me hold you, Aijun, and you can take a rest!"
Sun Jun's distant aunt extended her hand to Sun Aijun.
"No, no, no, hug me. Aijun isn't looking at you, he's obviously looking at me, okay?"
Seeing this, another woman also came over and stretched out her hand.
The two women glared at each other secretly, then looked at Chen Fan with a smile on their faces.
"Uncle Aijun, please give Aijun to us. We've troubled you to take care of him these past few days. Now that our Sun family is here, we'll take care of him ourselves!"
One woman spoke, and the other woman didn't say anything, but also nodded in agreement.
Chen Fan glanced at the two of them coldly.
"No need, I can take care of Aijun!"
After saying that, Chen Fan turned around and walked away, ignoring the two people's outstretched hands.
She didn't know what the two of them were planning, but she could tell that they didn't really want to be nice to Sun Aijun.
The two men's hands froze in the air, their faces turning red, blue, and white.
One of the women was about to yell at the top of her lungs, but a man came forward and secretly tugged at her sleeve.
The woman looked at her man in confusion.
"What are you doing? Why are you pulling me?"
The man rolled his eyes and said, "Stop arguing. There are so many people here. If we make a big fuss, it will be hard for others to talk about it. If we let them figure it out,
Won't they say we came here for Aijun's legacy? Won't they accuse us of being greedy for money? "
"Isn't it?"
The woman looked at her man puzzledly, her eyes full of wisdom.
The man almost slapped the woman in the face. He had been so smart all his life, so why did he end up with such a stupid woman?
"Shut up!"
The man glared at the woman fiercely, scaring her so much that she shut her mouth and her face turned pale.
Later in time,
The distant relatives of the Sun family did not gather around anymore, but pairs of greedy eyes were fixed on Chen Fan's back.
There was a green light in his eyes, like a group of vicious wolves.
The third day passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the fourth day.
Today is the day Xiuzhen was laid to rest.
The black coffin looks very heavy. This is a kind of precious lacquer tree, which is poisonous. Ordinary people dare not touch it.
But it is a rare good wood for making coffins.
Because of its toxicity, many insects and ants dare not eat the coffin. At the same time, because of its heavy quality, the wood is not easy to rot.
It can preserve the deceased's body intact for a long time.
This coffin cost nearly ten thousand yuan.
The outside of the coffin was painted with a layer of black paint, one to prevent poison and the other to ensure better sealing.
A large beam was erected above the coffin, and then the coffin was hung on the beam with several hemp ropes as thick as a baby's arm.
There are two middle beams at both ends of the beam.
Two thin beams were tied to the ends of the two middle beams with hemp ropes.
There are four thin beams in total.
Two people carried the coffin on a thin beam, a total of eight people.
On top of the coffin, a big rooster was tied to the top with a red rope.
In front of the coffin,
It is tied with a hemp rope that is more than ten meters thick.
After breakfast, it was soon the time my husband had planned.
The coffin was placed on two solid wooden red stools.
The master stood in front of the coffin.
There were four people standing at the front and back ends of the coffin, a total of eight pallbearers.
There are twelve pallbearers on both sides of the coffin. They are also the backup pallbearers who take over when the pallbearers get tired and can't hold on any longer.
Seeing that the time has come,
The gentleman cleared his throat and sang the applause for the departure in a loud and rhythmic voice: "The heaven and earth are open, the day is auspicious and the hour is good.
The master of the chariot has sent me to tie the chariot beam. Where does this wood come from, and where does it grow? This wood comes from the border of Hui'an, and grows on the Qing'an Mountains.
Whoever sees the tree emerging from the ground, whoever helps it grow into a timber..."
"Carry the coffin!"
At the end of the reading, the teacher suddenly raised his head and shouted with all his might,
"Oh!"
The eight pall bearers and the twelve pallbearers growled at the same time. The pall bearers placed the thin beam on their shoulders, squatted slightly, and exerted force with their shoulders to straighten the hemp rope immediately.
Twelve pallbearers held the sides of the coffin.
The gentleman continued to mutter.
"Now, heaven and earth have opened, and the deceased is invited out, and placed in the carriage. The black lacquer coffin is shiny black, and the blessed person is inside. The sorghum tiles cannot hold him, and his heart is fixed on Jiulongtou.
"The head of the Nine Dragons is the living land, and generations of descendants wear court robes. Filial sons weep in front of it, holding paper spirit tablets in their hands."
"The filial son carries the paper token!"
The gentleman shouted,
Chen Fan quickly carried Sun Aijun to the front of the coffin.
He placed the paper spirit tablet in front of the coffin into Sun Aijun's arms. After seeing this scene, the gentleman nodded, then turned and looked at the eight pallbearers and the twelve pallbearers.
His face was solemn, and he suddenly shouted with all his strength: "Husband, everyone listen carefully, the head count is complete. The applause is over, and all is well. The Eight Immortals stand at attention, and Wu Long is moving."
The moment the gentleman finished speaking,
The eight pallbearers suddenly roared, "Get up!"
The twelve pallbearers shouted at the same time: "Get up!"
The next moment, everyone else followed suit and shouted, "Get up!"
The hemp rope was suddenly stretched straight, making a rustling sound.
Eight pallbearers carried the coffin and walked towards the cemetery in the same rhythm.
The gentleman walked in front, and Chen Fan followed behind holding Sun Aijun.
"Fu, carry the black dragon on the road, all the eight immortals must be united. Go up the slopes and down the hills without haste;
When making a turn, discuss it with all; when crossing a bridge or water, don't be frantic. Those with great strength should not exert themselves, and those with less strength should not panic.
The gentleman continued to speak applause words,
Sometimes I grab a handful of paper money and throw it on the road I'm walking on.
Or light a string of firecrackers and make crackling sounds!
The smell of gunpowder and smoke filled the air.
Chen Fan held Sun Aijun in his arms without saying a word. Sun Aijun held the paper spirit tablet and stared ahead with wide eyes.
No cry either,
It was just a pair of pink little hands, tightly grasping the paper spirit tablet in their arms.
Xiuzhen weighs less than 100 pounds.
The entire lacquer tree coffin weighs about 800 kilograms, and the total weight is about 990 kilograms.
Heavy.
"Xiuzhen, we're leaving now. Your son Aijun is under the care of all of us, don't worry!"
The man leading the coffin bearers suddenly shouted,
The other pallbearers quickly followed suit and shouted, "Xiuzhen, we're leaving now. Your son Aijun is under our care, don't worry!"
