Chapter 90 Wishful Thinking
The second wife of that family was named Lin. After she got married, she gave birth to two children. Together with the first one, there were three children in total. She raised them all very well and did not abuse them.
When Mrs. Lin first got married, she suffered a lot from her mother-in-law. She was afraid that her mother-in-law would abuse her previous grandson, and she was also afraid that her mother-in-law would not be able to give birth to a grandson. So her mother-in-law often treated her in a weird way and didn't want to feed her.
Later, her husband climbed a tree to pick fruit and fell down and was seriously injured. Although he recovered later, he could not do any heavy work. The family depended on Mrs. Lin alone.
After working hard for more than ten years, her husband passed away, leaving Mrs. Lin with three children. She originally wanted to remarry, but her mother-in-law ruined the plan.
After her mother-in-law passed away and her children grew up, she was too lazy to think about remarrying and decided to enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren.
After that, she lived a very comfortable life alone, but unexpectedly, she started arguing with her in-laws again over the issue of burial.
Although her parents-in-law have passed away, her husband still has a brother and sister who are still alive.
Her husband, who had died early, didn't want to be buried with the one before him, as he thought it was unlucky for someone to die early. But Mrs. Lin also didn't want to be buried with her husband.
Although the apparent reason was that three people could not fit into one grave, and the older one had given birth to a son for the Lu family, they couldn't leave him with no place to be buried after his death.
In fact, Mrs. Lin disliked her husband. She took care of his eating, drinking, defecating and urinating when he was alive, and she didn't want to see him again after she died. Let her be alone and quiet.
Mrs. Lin's three children are also very filial and plan to build a tomb according to their mother's wishes.
As a result, her husband's brother got the news from somewhere, became unhappy, and started making a fuss at home.
Mrs. Lin is over seventy years old this year, and her uncle is eighty years old. At such an old age, he still comes to their house to make trouble every day. Her three children dare not do anything, for fear that something might happen to such an old man.
Her eldest uncle thought that it was against the rules that Mrs. Lin didn't want to be buried with his brother. The two of them hadn't divorced, and if his brother was buried alone, he would be laughed at by others in the underworld.
As the argument went on, the matter was brought to Lu Zhengde's attention. Both of them wanted the village chief to make the decision for them.
Lu Xing heard about this from Liu Hehua.
Unexpectedly, she just thought about it casually and actually guessed it right.
The system doesn't understand why humans would quarrel over such things. What's the difference between three people sleeping in one coffin and one person sleeping in one coffin? Everyone is dead anyway.
Lu Xing didn't know how to explain the complex attitude of human beings towards death, so he simply took the system to the scene to watch the fun.
The village chief called many elders to discuss this matter, including Mrs. Lin and her husband's brothers and sisters.
A group of elderly people sat in the yard, watching Mrs. Lin quarrel with her in-laws.
Mrs. Lin was old, but her temper hadn't diminished at all. "What do you mean? You just don't treat the wife you married before as a human being. She gave birth to a son for the Lu family and worked like a slave for us, and now you can't even bury her with your husband?"
Her eldest uncle was choked. He couldn't just admit that they disliked their ex-wife who died early because she was unlucky, so he could only talk about it from another angle.
"Now you are a member of our Lu family. If you don't bury the Lu family, then where are you going to bury them? You and your wife will be buried together in the underworld so that you can have each other as companions."
"What about the one in front? She's already buried in there. You're not planning on digging her out, are you?"
This is another old matter.
When his ex-wife died, her husband didn't think of marrying again, so he built a double tomb for the couple.
Later, he married Mrs. Lin, but changed his mind and wanted to be buried with Mrs. Lin. However, he did not want to be a bad guy, after all, his son born to his ex-wife was still there.
So he secretly told Mrs. Lin that he wanted to be buried with her and wanted Mrs. Lin to be the bad guy.
The only thing he didn't expect was that Mrs. Lin didn't want to be buried with him at all.
The elder sister-in-law had the same idea as him. She believed that people who died early were too unlucky and did not deserve to be buried with her brother.
"Before he died, my brother said he wanted to be buried with you. You've worked so hard for our Lu family for so many years. You're definitely more worthy of being buried with us than that woman."
"As for that woman, we'll build a tomb for her nearby, and her children can burn incense for her during festivals. It won't be considered that we've treated her unfairly."
The elder sister-in-law felt that her method was the most righteous thing to do.
Lu Xing and the others didn't know what to say as they were listening nearby. It was best not to interfere in other people's family affairs.
"Village Chief, isn't this Mrs. Lin's family's business? Why did you call us over?"
"Yeah, why did you call us over here?"
Although the other people were enjoying the food, they didn't want to get involved in this troublesome matter.
The village chief called them over, not intending to let them offend anyone, but instead used another method.
"Oh, uncles and aunts, this is not the first time I've encountered something like this, so I wanted to ask you, what did our village do when it encountered something like this before?"
To help her son, Liu Hehua was the first to speak up, "Those of us who married a second wife, buried the first wife in a different tomb."
Lu Xing also said that he had heard from the system, "I heard that there was a man in this town who also had two wives. He built a large tomb and placed his second wife's coffin next to the coffins of him and his first wife."
The elder sister-in-law's eyes lit up when she heard this. "We can also make this tomb. The three of you can be buried together, and then you can go down to take care of my brother together."
The eldest uncle also agreed with this plan, of course he still had to pretend, "This is a good idea, we can't treat the one in front unfairly, and we can't treat you unfairly either, so why don't the three of us just join together."
Mrs. Lin, who had been holding back her anger, could no longer help but said, "What do you mean by forget it? You guys are so beautiful."
"I have to take care of that lazy bum when I'm alive, and I have to take care of him after I die? You're dreaming. I don't want to share a grave with him."
"What else? You married into our Lu family, so taking care of the Lu family is what you should do."
My uncle looked very sanctimonious and his words were full of hypocrisy.
"When I die, I'll let my son bury me outside, and you won't be able to stop me."
"We three are not from the same family. One of us married into another family, and one of us split up the family. Now I am the head of my family. What I want to do is none of your business."
"Who do you think I am? Am I the Lu family's free babysitter, whether I'm alive or dead? I can't afford your family's incense. The price is too high."
She scolded both of them, and she was very happy. "Don't think that I went to the village chief because I was afraid of you. I was just worried that the children would be tormented by you."
"If you have any problems, come to me. Don't try to harass the younger generation all day long. It's useless."
"When I die, I can be buried wherever I want. I've already decided what to write on my tombstone. Your family and your assholes are not allowed to enter."
When my uncle saw this insult, he didn't know what to say.
Mrs. Lin didn't bother to think about what the other people's complicated expressions meant. She finished saying what she wanted to say and scolded the people she wanted to scold. She felt refreshed all over and turned around and left.
Too lazy to bother with those annoying guys.
