Chapter 178 Funerals 2

Jiang Baocai was just buried here. Wen Yuhong's wife died again over there.

Wen Yuhong is half Han and half Yi. His father is from the Yi ethnic group, and his mother is a Han woman who was robbed by the Yi people in the old society. She died of illness a few years after liberation. After Wen Yuhong's mother died, her uncle's family, that is,

The Wang family felt that Wen Yuhong was so pitiful that they took him down from the mountain and then helped him marry a Bai Yi wife from Juebi.

No one knows the name of Wen Yuhong's wife. People in the village greet her as Yuhong Granny. Yuhong Granny couldn't speak Chinese when she first arrived. Although she later learned some simple Chinese, she seldom communicated with others.

She and Wen Yuhong gave birth to three sons. The eldest, Wen Xiaoping, the second, Wen Xiaohua, and the youngest, Wen Xiaogang. This Wen Xiaogang was born very strong. It was a winter, and Wen Yuhong's mother-in-law gave birth to Wen Xiaogang in October. She was the midwife.

When Wen Xiaogang showed him to Wen Yuhong, he was congratulated on having another son. He said, "You have three sons now, just like the incense burner has three legs. You will be able to establish a firm foothold here in the future."

But this Wen Yuhong was not happy. He scolded the midwife, and then beat the mother-in-law who had just finished giving birth and was still lying weakly on the bed. He was still not relieved. He actually cut off the umbilical cord of the newborn inhumanely.

The baby, who was still bleeding and had not yet had a mouthful of milk, was put into the poop bucket at his house. The poop was filled with the urine they peed at night. Then the little baby had a very strong instinct to survive and crawled in the poop bucket.

Crying. This damned Wen Yuhong frantically picked up a brick to hold the baby down.

Fortunately, Wen Yuhong's aunt came over, rescued the baby from the urine bucket, picked up a blanket and hugged it. She heated water to wash it, and called someone to pick up the baby's cloak, quilt, and other clothes from her daughter-in-law's house.

Bring it to snatch Wen Xiaogang's life.

However, these three sons are not very obedient. They do a lot of sneaky things in the village. Although everyone knows that they are the ones doing it, they all turn a blind eye out of sympathy.

The first person to discover the body of Wen Yuhong's wife was Mu Qimei from the village. Mu Qimei picked up the manure early in the morning and went to her field to fertilize the rice seedlings. The land was right next to Wen Yuhong's house.

She was using a manure can to fertilize and was walking. Suddenly something dark came into her eyes. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a human being. She boldly kicked it and cursed: "Who are you?"

Why are you lying in my field?"

But the person lying on the ground could never answer her question.

Mu Qimei suddenly realized that there was a dead person lying on the ground, and she quickly screamed: "Dead person! Dead person!" and ran out of Baogudi.

When the villagers heard her roar, they all rushed over. Everyone braved their courage and went to the fields to take a look. As soon as they saw it, they recognized that this person was none other than Wen Yuhong's mother-in-law. Everyone went to pat the door of Wen Yuhong's house while going

Notify Wen Yuhong's uncle's family.

Everyone hurriedly opened the door of Wen Yuhong's house, but it was his eldest son Wen Xiaoping who opened the door. Everyone asked: "Where is your father?"

Wen Xiaoping rubbed his sleepy little eyes: "You haven't gotten up yet."

Everyone rushed into his room and only smelled the smell of alcohol. Wen Yuhong hadn't gotten up yet. They saw many people rushing to her home. Wen Yuhong seemed to have woken up from the wine. She hurriedly asked everyone: "What happened."

Everyone hurriedly said: "Your mother-in-law is dead."

Wen Yuhong seemed not to hear clearly, or couldn't believe it, and asked again: "What are you talking about?"

An impatient man went up and slapped Wen Yuhong: "What are you talking about? You bastard, you can still sleep? If your mother-in-law died, she died in Mu Qimei's house."

Wen Yuhong was beaten and dragged to Mu Qimei's house by everyone. His uncle, cousin, and others also came over. Everyone hurriedly carried Wen Yuhong's body to the dam of Wen Yuhong's house and put it there.

It's just that the death of Wen Yuhong's wife was too tragic. Her mouth was wide open, her face was black and blue, her front teeth were missing, and her hands and feet were curled up. Her face was very ferocious.

Wen Yuhong's uncle quickly asked other unrelated people out of the courtyard, leaving only his family and relatives behind, and closed the courtyard door.

After the other staff left, his uncle asked: "Wen Yuhong, did you and your wife quarrel last night?"

Wen Yuhong: "Yes. I clearly remember that I had three dollars in my trouser pocket. When I touched it, it was gone. So I asked her, a thief bitch, if she had taken it. She refused to admit that she had taken it. She also scolded me for being incapable of eating.

When she was drunk, she only knew how to beat the mother-in-law and the baby. I taught her a lesson. After I taught her a lesson, she lay down in the main room, crying and fussing. I really couldn't stand it, so I picked up the bench and beat her.

After a few blows, she was beaten away. Just run away, and I went to sleep."

Uncle Wen Yuhong: "Wen Yuhong, you bastard insists on not letting me worry. If I had known that this was the case, I shouldn't have sympathized with you and got you bastard out of that corner of the mountain. You are so unsatisfactory and incompetent.

okay."

Another uncle: "Second brother, don't talk about this. People are all dead here. It doesn't work. The dead are already dead, what should we do with the living?"

Wen Yuhong: "Don't be afraid. If one person does the work, the other person will be responsible. At worst, they will drag me to 'knock the sand jar'."

There was a "pop" sound, and his uncle slapped him.

"You make it easy for me. If you knock your sand jar, who will raise the baby for you? Should I raise the baby for you? I am already buried up to my neck in loess."



In the end, they didn't know how to straighten Wen Yuhong's wife's hands and feet. There was already a strong smell of pesticides in Wen Yuhong's wife's mouth.

Then the courtyard door of Wen Yuhong's house also opened.

"Wen Yuhong's wife was so stingy that after a quarrel with Wen Yuhong, she couldn't bear to commit suicide by taking pesticides..."

"Wen Yuhong's mother-in-law was too selfish and couldn't endure hardship. She took poison and died after a quarrel with a man..."

"Wen Yuhong is so pitiful. My mother-in-law died from pesticides and left three children behind. He is both a father and a mother. How can I live this life..."

...

Various "news" with different explanations but similar meanings were continuously distributed.

The villagers and the police station also came to see it. The victim's family, including the children, all agreed: "My wife had a quarrel and committed suicide by taking pesticide." "My mother and my father had a quarrel, my father was drunk, we fell asleep, and my mother ate it."

Pesticides are dead”.

After the others left, it was quiet at night.

Wen Yuhong's uncle: "This wave has passed, and there will be another wave."

After another period of busy work, the body of Wen Yuhong's wife was wrapped in charwa and tied tightly according to the rules of the Yi people, like a huge "zongzi".

The next day, Wen Yuhong's mother-in-law's family came over from Juebi. Wen Yuhong's uncle prepared liquor and beer and slaughtered pigs. They arranged the food for her family first.

The relatives on both sides met, drank, and exchanged information. The family members were also people who understood the "principle" very well. They also died when they saw them. They were also tied up, and the three little nephews were also wearing sackcloth and wearing mourning filial piety.

Come on.

No one said anything more and made Wen Yihong more embarrassed.

On the third day, everyone helped carry Wen Yuhong's mother-in-law to the mountain and cremated her according to the rules of the Yi people.

Wen Yuhong's wife turned into a wisp of smoke and ended her miserable and hasty life.

Although everyone has doubts about this matter, considering that the deceased are like this, it is over. The living still have to struggle to live in this "human skin". If we don't see the truth, no one cares about the truth, because

This has no practical significance. What is important is that these three children have to live and grow up. They have already lost their mother and cannot lose their father again.

In the words of Uncle Wen Yuhong: "The purpose is to make this bastard Wen Yuhong confess his sins! Let him suffer all the hardships in life and raise these three children."

Wen Yuhong's wife had just turned into a wisp of smoke. Two more people died in the village. One was Secretary Jin's second son, and the other was Master Liu's wife.

Secretary Jin’s second son is the son with the most personality and ideas in their family. He is also the “evil” person in their family. Because he has the strongest temper and personality. He often starts fights when they disagree. Therefore, few people dare to bully them.

But for such a young and energetic young man with a distinctive personality, when he went to pull coal from the mountain, the brake pipe of the tractor broke and the brakes were lost. He was reluctant to part with his beloved tractor. The tractor fell off the cliff and the car was destroyed.

People died. Secretary Jin and his wife sent the white-haired person to the black-haired person, and they became much older overnight...

Master Liu's wife had been suffering from osteomyelitis for several years, and finally developed into bone marrow cancer. She did not die until the oil was exhausted. Her death was a "relief" for her. She
