The funeral was proceeding according to the rules. Under the leadership of Zhang Xiangyun, Pei Jianhui welcomed the guests from the clan like a little adult. The clan elders who felt sorry for them gave them gifts of one yuan and one cent or two yuan and one cent.
Pei Qingshan directly paid five dollars and one cent.
This is already the highest.
His family has a clan leader and a captain, so it is reasonable for them to take care of the clan members.
Taking into consideration that the mother and her two children would still have to make a living in the future, the brothers did not touch the money given as gifts by the clansmen. Pei Yuanzheng even gave the more than 3,000 yuan to Pei Qingyang after the funeral, like a hot potato.
The ten-yuan solidarity bills were tied into three thick bundles. No one could resist the temptation.
But who is Pei Qingyang?
He earns dozens of dollars a month with Pei Yuanzheng, and Wu Lanhua also earns dozens of dollars a month with Ruan Niannian. If he dares to touch this money, he and his wife will be unemployed and have to go home to eat themselves out in a minute, and they will have to pay back the more than 3,000 yuan.
Someone as smart as Pei Qingyang would never make such a stupid mistake.
Because of the funeral, Pei Yuanzheng stayed at home for a few days and took Pei Qingyang with him. However, Pei Qinggang and Zhai Ligang took turns to fill in for Pei Yuanzheng.
It's impossible not to gossip about what happened between them that day.
It's just that I was so busy with the funeral that I didn't have time to talk about such happy things.
As soon as the funeral was over, school started. Except for the two little girls, Pei Xiaodan and Pei Xiaoqing, all the other older children started attending the morning classes.
(In the author's hometown, the first class starts at 8:00, and morning self-study starts at 7:10. Morning self-study lasts for 40 minutes, and then there is a 10-minute break before class starts. get out of class ends at 11:40 in the morning, and in the afternoon, classes usually start at 2:00. There are three classes, and the classes end at around 4:30. There are only two classes on Friday afternoons, and people can go home around 3:30. The book follows this schedule.)
Zhang Xiangyun went to pick grass leaves before dawn every day, returned home before six o'clock to make breakfast for her two children, and then went to work, earning seven work points a day.
Occasionally Pei Qingsong would help her and make sure she completed all her work points.
Li Jinhua can't sit still and goes to work every day, mainly to not miss the "big events" in the village. She only listens and doesn't say anything.
In fact, Pei Qingsong didn't want Li Jinhua to go to work at all. He could get two full work points by himself. At worst, he would just do the work if it was assigned to him.
The main thing was that every time Li Jinhua went to work, she would use the excuse of being tired to avoid him getting close to her, which made him feel very aggrieved.
Wu Lanhua was determined not to work. Ever since she got married, she had already gained the reputation of being lazy and gluttonous.
She follows Ruan Niannian to ask Wu Xinghua questions every day, just like now.
"The apricot blossoms are blooming." Ruan Niannian started.
Wu Xinghua's cheeks flushed. She nodded and ran to the kitchen without even bothering to brush her teeth or wash her face.
She used to hear people say that men who have just started having sex have plenty of energy, but she didn't know it was so effective. If she had known, she would have kept Pei Qinggang company for a while. What a sin!
After Ruan Niannian raised her head, she gave a look to Wu Lanhua who came over early in the morning to eat melon seeds, and Wu Lanhua received the look.
He followed Wu Xinghua into the kitchen.
"What's wrong with you, you stupid girl?" Wu Lanhua acted like an older sister. "The couple paid you to do this job, five dollars a month, just to cook and wash clothes. There are so many people rushing to do this job, but you are still not paying attention, you stupid girl. I tell you, the fourth brother hates people who take money and fool around without working. If you get fired later, don't make everyone look bad."
Wu Xinghua's originally red face gradually turned white. She had lived such a comfortable life these days that she almost forgot that she was working for someone else.
Especially when she heard Wu Lanhua say the words "fired", she became anxious, "Sister, I didn't mean it. I won't do this again in the future. I just feel uncomfortable recently."
The dead girl eats really well, although she eats well too.
Wu Lanhua said in a businesslike manner, "I know you just got married and your body is a bit overwhelmed. You should go to bed earlier in the future. Even if he has a long time, he can sleep longer. You can't let your boss wait for you hungry in the morning."
"I understand, sister." Wu Xinghua looked humble and willing to learn.
Seeing Wu Lanhua taking the initiative to help her with the work, she was deeply touched. There were some things she wanted to say but she didn't know how to start.
Wu Lanhua didn't care about that. While helping to light the fire, she kept nagging Wu Xinghua about something.
"Men are all the same after getting married. It will be fine after a while. Especially since Brother Wolf is not young anymore, he needs to be more restrained in this kind of thing. Otherwise, if his health condition deteriorates, it might be difficult for him to have children."
Wu Xinghua was so frightened that she told him everything, "Ah? Sister, are you serious? Well, I have tried to go to bed early, but Brother Wolf... He can do it four or five times every time, and it takes a long time. I feel like my skin is rubbed off every time, and it hurts when I go to the toilet."
Wu Lanhua: ...
It seems that there are no weak men in Lao Pei’s family?
"You do this." Wu Lanhua began to give bad advice, "This man, when he does less work, he will have more energy. When he comes back from his shift every day, find something for him to do. If he wants to eat pheasants, let him go catch them. If he feels unwell, let him go to the health center to get medicine. Don't ask the barefoot doctor to give him medicine. Just say you are sorry and let him go to the health center to get it..."
She was really giving advice, but she also wrote down everything she needed to know, and then shared it with Ruan Niannian without missing a word, even adding some exaggerations.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the battle is very intense."
After finishing her breakfast, Ruan Niannian went to lie down in the yard. This was her daily compulsory course, basking in the sun to supplement calcium. If she didn't bask in the sun, she would easily get cramps.
