Return to 83: Start by changing your surname

Can I fill in the death certificate in Chapter 5?

Although he is now in the village, Mu Shanhe no longer has any close relatives.But everyone in the village knew that he was the grandson of the old leader Mu Xingye, a miserable man with a pitiful background.More or less, some care will be given to him.

From the perspective of the reborn Mu Shanhe, grandpa Mu Xingyeye had a lot of kindness in his past, and the remaining kindness still bless him!

Seeing Mu Shanhe take out the wild ginseng dug from the mountain like a treasure, Mu Xingfu, who has also been collecting ginseng for many years, could not hide his surprise and said: "Good boy, I really have yours! This ginseng, I'm afraid it's as big as Xiaosi Liang" Bar!"

"Hey, we won't know how much we weigh until we get to the city. Grandpa Mu, now you should believe that I have the ability to support myself, right? Since I was eight years old, I have been going into the mountains with my father, and I follow the rules of mountain running. Everyone understands!”

"You kid, what do you know? This is just a novice who got a good fortune. You should be grateful to the mountain god for protecting him."

"Yes, yes, you are always right. By the way, Grandpa Mu, there is something I want to discuss with you."

After putting away the wild ginseng as a gift, Mu Shanhe helped the village chief, who had a high prestige in the village, to sit on the chair.He brought the freshly boiled tea and said, "Grandpa Mu, I want to go to town to find Uncle Erwang to do something."

Uncle Erwang at the mouth of Mu Shanhe is Mu Youwang, the second son of the old man in front of him.He served as a soldier in his early years, and after retiring, he was assigned to work as a policeman at the town police station.If I remember correctly, he should also be the deputy director now.

After hearing this, Mu Xingfu asked slightly curiously: "Why are you looking for Erwang?"

"Grandpa Mu, I am the only one who was listed on my grandpa's household registration earlier. I plan to change my name and change my surname to grandpa and grandma's. From now on, I will be the head of the household. What do you think?"

As Mu Shanhe said these words, Mu Xingfu was stunned and said: "Shanzi, have you really thought about it?"

To Mu Xingfu's surprise, Mu Shanhe said with a smile: "Grandpa Mu, I have thought about it a long time ago. My grandpa and grandma are not here, so I have to support this family. If I still carry the previous surname, this I always feel panicked in my heart, what do you think?"

"Sure! Let's go then! I'll call Erwang later. This shouldn't be difficult."

In the eyes of the villagers, many people were unwilling to mention Mu Shanhe's father.Especially after Mu Shanhe's mother passed away, no one in the village had a favorable impression of that bookish man.

In the words of many villagers, she is a 'contemporary Chen Shimei' and will be despised!
Before his rebirth, Mu Shanhe really changed his surname to 'Mu' because after the death of the only grandfather who cared about him, and a complete falling out with his so-called family, he finally made the decision to change his surname to take his mother's surname, in order to separate from his family. Clear boundaries.

After being reborn, Mu Shanhe remembered that his current surname was somewhat unusual in the village.Since he decided to change his way of life in this life, why not start by changing his surname?He really didn't want to be associated with that family anymore.

In today's rural areas, changing one's surname can be done as long as one has some connections.From Mu Xingfu's point of view, I think I would be very happy if I knew that my grandson, whom he regarded as his own, would change his surname if he knew his old friend in Quanxia!
From Mu Shanhe's point of view, after changing his surname, he will completely draw a clear line between him and the person he doesn't want to mention.The other party doesn't have to bear the title of 'Chen Shimei' or illegitimate child and suffer the scorn of others.

"If he knew that I had changed my last name, he would be relieved and completely dissociate himself from me!"

Mu Shanhe smiled self-deprecatingly, but he didn't feel any reluctance.After a night's rest and breakfast the next day, he decided to go to the town to settle the matter of changing his surname first, and then go to the city to sell the dug ginseng.

Although the old man left him a generous 'inheritance' during his lifetime, Mu Shanhe really had no intention of spending that money.The most important thing is that after selling the ginseng and getting money, he decided to move to the mountains instead of staying in the village.

But what Mu Shanhe didn't expect was that Mu Xingfu, who called his son last night, also said directly: "I'll go with you later! Are you going to sell your ginseng? By then , let your Uncle Erwang accompany you to the city." "Ah! Grandpa Mu, there is no need to go to such trouble, right?"

"What the hell! What do you know, you're just a kid? This ginseng plant of yours can be sold for at least two to three thousand yuan. What do you think others will think if they see you pocketing so much money? , just do as I say!"

Facing the strong and domineering old village chief, Mu Shanhe still gave in obediently.After tying up his own carriage, Mu Xingfu immediately took Mu Shanhe to Xianqiao Town, a dozen miles away from Xinmintun, and went straight to the town police station.

Mu Youwang, who happened to be working in the institute, was surprised when he saw his father suddenly coming to the institute and said: "Dad, why are you here?"

"I don't feel comfortable letting Xiao Shanzi come over alone for this kind of thing. You should take care of things for him first!"

For Mu Xingfu, he has three sons and one daughter, and now they all have iron rice bowls.Although all three sons expressed their willingness to take him to live in the town or city.But the old man thought it was too much trouble and was still willing to live in the village with his wife.

Mu Youwang, who watched Mu Shanhe take out his ID and apply for his household registration in person, also said seriously: "Shanzi, have you really thought about it? Although changing your last name is nothing, but if you want to change it back in the future, But that’s troublesome!”

"Uncle, it's okay. I've thought about it all. Change it! Also, can you help me fill in the father's death column?"

As soon as he said this, Muyouwang bared his teeth and said, "Shanzi, isn't this bad?"

"What's so bad? Didn't everyone in the village say that he was dead? Otherwise, I just didn't fill in the father's column. Anyway, I felt uncomfortable when I looked at it. The most important thing is that people are also eager to Without my existence, what do you think?"

"Then what have you thought about? If you really change like this, if you want to be a soldier or something in the future, you may not pass the political review!"

Born and raised in the village, Mu Youwang naturally met Mu Shanhe's father.Why didn't he hate what the other party did?But things like this are actually not uncommon in their area.

It's just that some people won't be as heartless as Mu Shanhe's father!
Faced with Mu Youwang's warning, Mu Shanhe smiled and said: "Uncle, I know what you want to say, but I don't want to be a soldier, let alone an official. I think it's good to just be a mountain man. Just help me get this done!"

Seeing that Mu Shanhe seemed to have really thought it through, Mu Youwang pondered for a moment, and finally left the father's column empty.Anyway, the other party's household registration has also moved out of the village, so it would be troublesome to investigate.

The most important thing is that the other party married Mu Shanhe's mother in his early years, held a banquet in the village, and the marriage was established.However, the two did not apply for a marriage certificate.But undocumented marriages like this were also very common in the countryside in the early years.

But what everyone didn't expect was that Mu Shanhe's father, who was married and had children, would abandon his wife and children and find a new wife once he became powerful.Except for a farewell letter, the man never returned to Xinmintun.

Such a ruthless approach eventually led to Mu Shanhe's mother to die in depression.Mu Xingye, the father of Mu Shanhe who was originally in good health, endured the pain of being sent away by a white-haired man to a black-haired man, and finally died of a serious illness two years ago.

Fortunately, when the old man passed away, Mu Shanhe was also fifteen years old and was about to graduate from junior high school.In rural areas, a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old is considered to be in the upper half of the family.As long as you are not lazy and willing to work, there is no problem in supporting yourself.

Furthermore, Mu Xingye accumulated a lot of kindness in the village in his early years. After he left, the people in the village would probably help his only grandson.When Mu Shanhe reaches adulthood and finds a wife to start a family, the family can continue to live on!
