Han Zhenyu nodded. "Brother Dahan said that he seemed to have frozen to death. The specific circumstances are still unclear. We just discussed it and decided to go over and take a look."
"Okay, then you go quickly." Su Xieqiu said.
She really didn't expect that such a good person would be gone just like that.
Although that person was hateful, his death did not deserve it.
But this was too sudden, and she lamented in her heart the fragility of life.
………
When Han Zhenyu and Sun Dahan arrived at Han Dejiang's house, Han Dejiang's brothers and sisters were all there.
Neighbors nearby and several elders from the Han family were also there.
Wang Shulian was holding her son and daughter and wiping her tears.
Han Demei looked at her angrily, complaining in her tone, "Sister-in-law, my brother drank so much and it was so cold, why did you let him run out so late at night? Don't you know how to stop him?"
"Little sister, you don't know your brother's temper. When has he ever listened to me?"
Wang Shulian pointed to the slap marks on her face and said sarcastically, "I told him not to go, and he slapped me a few times and beat me up. If I had really tried to stop him, you would not be seeing one body, but two."
Wang Shulian looked at her and asked calmly, "He's so big, I can't beat him, and I can't stop him, what can I do?"
Han Demei opened his mouth, but could not utter a word to refute.
Her elder brother passed away just like that. Although she felt sad, she also knew that Wang Shulian was right.
With her elder brother's temper, how could he possibly listen to Wang Shulian?
Han Demei was so angry that he ran to Widow Liu's door and cursed her.
"You shameless whore, you stick your butt out to seduce people all day long. Can you not live without seeing a man for one night? You slut, you bitch..."
But no matter how harshly she cursed, Widow Liu dared not go out, and there was no noise in the house.
Han Dehai asked his wife to pull her back. What's the point of scolding her at this time? The person is gone. The most important thing now is to deal with the funeral of the eldest brother.
The eldest sister-in-law suggested that they keep it simple, but the two siblings disagreed and the matter has not been discussed yet.
"Sister-in-law, regardless of anything else, we have to buy a coffin." Han Dehai said.
Wang Shulian smiled bitterly, "Second brother, do you have anything valuable at home? Your eldest brother gave all the money and food to that woman. Several children are crying with hunger. What do you think I can use to buy him a coffin?"
Han Dehai was silent. He glanced at the elders of the Han family and saw that none of them spoke.
He had no choice but to wink at his younger sister, meaning for her to say something.
Han Demei is just as aggressive as her mother. Wang Shulian said that she was unwilling to buy a coffin for her eldest brother.
She glared and said, "Sister-in-law, if you want to bury my brother like this? Even if you are not afraid of being embarrassed, aren't you afraid of others poking at your spine?"
"There is a broken straw mat at home. Let's use it to wrap him up and bury him." Wang Shulian glanced at Han Dehai and Han Demei with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.
"Who in the village doesn't know what your eldest brother did? Do you think there are any who would poke holes in the bones of our big brother? The neighbors nearby feel sorry for our children and sometimes secretly give them some biscuits. They are all kindhearted and feel sorry for the fact that no one loves our children, but no one laughs at our big brother."
Han Dehai and Han Demei felt a little embarrassed after hearing this.
In fact, they knew in their hearts that it was their eldest brother who had gone too far.
But Han Dejiang was their own brother after all, and they felt very bad that he didn't even have a coffin when he died.
The brother and sister also want to fight for their eldest brother.
At this time, their second uncle spoke up, "Just do as Shulian wants."
He looked at Han Dehai and Han Demei, "If you two don't agree, then take out the money to buy a coffin for your eldest brother. Don't make it difficult for your eldest sister-in-law and Daniu. It's already difficult enough for them."
When the brother and sister heard their uncle ask them to pay for the coffin, they became speechless and never mentioned buying a coffin again.
Wang Shulian asked the men in the village to dig a hole in front of the grave of Han Dejiang's parents and buried him in the afternoon, not even letting him spend the night at home.
After Wang Shulian buried Han Dejiang, she and Daniu took knives and chopped open the door of Widow Liu's house.
All the food and firewood that Han Dejiang had taken away during his lifetime, as well as the money distributed to the team this year, were retrieved.
Finally, Wang Shulian beat up Widow Liu again, scratching her face until it was bruised.
The door of Widow Liu's house was full of people watching the fight, but no one tried to stop it.
Widow Liu was famous for being a coquettish woman in the village. Not only was she good with Han Dejiang, but she also twisted her waist and hips when she saw a man. The women nearby hated her to death.
Now when they see her being beaten, they all applaud in their hearts and are even less likely to try to stop the fight.
And those men, no matter if they had any relationship with her or not, didn't dare to approach her. At this critical moment, anyone who went over would get into trouble.
Han Zhenyu and the villagers helped bury Han Dejiang, and then went home with Sun Dahan.
Su Xieqiu was making dumplings while mung bean and pork ribs soup was simmering on the stove.
Seeing Han Zhenyu coming back, she quickly filled a half basin with hot water for him to wash up. "You must be frozen, hurry up and wash yourself."
After saying that, he took another bowl, beat an egg, stirred it, scooped two spoonfuls of soup into it, and made a bowl of egg drop soup.
Han Zhenyu had just washed his hands and face when a bowl of egg drop soup was stuffed into his hands. "Drink it while it's hot. I put some mung beans in the soup to reduce internal heat."
Han Zhenyu paused, looking at the hot soup in his hand, and his frozen body seemed to be injected with a warm current.
He sat opposite Su Xieqiu, drinking soup and watching her make dumplings.
