Chapter 247: Funeral
Song Jinglin must have been really busy recently.
While working and taking care of the children, I also stocked up on autumn vegetables and nailed up the windows.
However, apart from the room they were living in now, the other one was covered in dust, and the main room looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a while.
Not to mention the warehouse.
Liu Qingqing took the opportunity of the spring cleaning to release the rats and clean up thoroughly.
Song Jinglin felt sorry for his wife who was busy as soon as she got home, so he insisted on coming back from get off work to help.
Student Song Xiangyang was excited. His father couldn't leave him behind, right?
I picked up a rag and followed my father around to work.
From time to time, he would look back and ask: "Mom, do you think I polished it well?"
"Mom, am I cleaning better than Dad?"
…
"Yes, our Xiangyang is very good at cleaning the table."
"It's better than what Dad did. Come on."
Another one lost himself in the midst of his mother's flattery.
————————————
On the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, Song Jinglin received a telegram from Taoshan Village.
There are only four words on it: Come back soon.
After receiving the message, he felt dazed.
Even if his relationship with his father is average, it doesn't mean he doesn't care.
I managed to cheer myself up and persevere for the whole morning.
It was not until he returned home at noon that he could no longer conceal his dejected look.
Liu Qingqing took the telegram from his hand and didn't know what to say for a moment.
When it comes to comforting people, she's a complete jerk.
But she could give some strength - patted Song Jinglin on the shoulder.
Song Jinglin twitched the corner of his mouth and came back to his senses.
Liu Qingqing: "Can you take a leave?"
"Yes, I have already filed a report."
"When can I leave? I'll arrange the ticket in advance."
"No, I'll just ask Lao Xu to buy it..."
"You should just focus on your own business. I have some acquaintances at the train station."
"Tian?"
"Hey, I'll pack up this afternoon and leave early tomorrow morning."
After the two of them finalized the itinerary, they began to work on their respective tasks.
Liu Qingqing took the transport team's car to the city.
As usual, I went to look for Wang Yiying at the train station.
Wang Yiying happened to be selling tickets at the window today.
The person who was trying to get up was stopped by her and had to pay for two sleeper tickets before being pulled into the lounge.
…
After walking out of the train station, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative again, and by the way, she called Brother Zhou's unit in Wuning and asked Sister Zhou to help clean up the house.
There was a set of keys that had been left at Mr. Zhou's house, asking him to help look after it. In addition, Mrs. Zhou didn't want her garden to be left idle, so she had been tending to it.
Finally, she stayed at the guesthouse and waited for Wu Sufen to pick her up.
When Wu Sufen came back after delivering the goods, she was very impressed by the person who got on the car with two bags.
"Master Liu, you bought so many goodies!" She felt that she had bought too much.
"I'll bring it back with me when I return home tomorrow."
If you want to take things back, you need a reason. If you don’t go to the supply and marketing cooperative yourself, how can you get the things?
This time, the goods were shipped again and tickets were bought again.
Perfect!
Song Xiangyang can go to the nursery until the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, although there is no holiday during the festival to promote childbirth.
However, the army and the factory both organize programs, so children can go with their parents.
Song Xiangyang and his friends also arranged a performance program.
Upon learning that his parents were taking him back to his hometown the next day, Song Xiangyang hurried to inform his friends.
Liu Qingqing: ...
Oops, I neglected my child’s social life.
They also have things to arrange.
How can you be so disrespectful to children? I must be more careful next time.
The family of three set off early the next morning after breakfast.
Song Jinglin has already arranged a vehicle to take them there.
As the day drew to a close, there were quite a few people on the bus.
It’s not as crazy as Wuning.
There are several reasons. First, this is the starting station, so the journey takes a long time and there is no need to rush.
Secondly, because this is the starting station, everyone who gets on the bus at this station has a seat, so you can just get on.
It’s different in Wuning. It’s a small station in the county town and the platform is not well-developed. Many people can go directly to the platform without buying tickets.
The convenience of package tickets resulted in many people on the bus not having tickets.
Because it is an insignificant small station in the middle of the journey, the stop time is short, and the people buying tickets and the people actually getting on the bus do not match, so it is particularly difficult.
Don't think that you have nowhere to go just because your status is restricted.
The educated youth who went to the countryside at that time formed a large part of the population.
Then there are those who come to visit relatives and to handle official business.
There is another batch of...
These are the "vagrant criminals" without letters of introduction that the red armbands are investigating.
Even among the more closed-minded people in their seventies, there are still people who commit robbery, murder and arson.
There were even quite a few bandits and robbers.
The missions that Song Jinglin and his men often participated in, apart from foreign wars, were bandit suppression missions.
What's worse, there are cult organizations.
Speaking of which, even Liu Qingqing couldn't believe it. There were quite a few of these evil cult organizations.
The most famous cult in recent times was the "One Step to Heaven" cult, which arrested many people.
Similar ones still exist today.
And from now on, things will be in chaos.
The darkness before Li Yi is even more chaotic.
