The animal world of the head of the village

Chapter 41 The Funeral of Uncle Wang
"Huang Xiaohu, follow me to the village committee. Also, why is your phone always turned off?"

"Why do you go to the village committee? Is my mobile phone turned off?" Huang Xiaohu found the mobile phone and took a look. It turned out that the battery was dead.

"Uncle Wang's two sons are back. You come with me. There are some things that you need to explain clearly."

Huang Xiaohu was dragged to the village committee by Hu Xiaomei.

At this time, the village committee was very lively. The village head Yu and the people from the village committee were all there, and there were two men who came back from outside.

These two people should be Uncle Wang's two sons, Wang Qinghe and Wang Qingyuan.It is said that both of them rushed back to Longcun the next day after receiving the call.

Wang Qinghe and Wang Qingyuan looked very tired due to the exhaustion of the journey, and both of them seemed to have cried, their eyes were red, and they began to choke up after speaking a few words.

After Hu Xiaomei and Huang Xiaohu passed by, she first greeted the village head, and then began to explain the situation at that time.

"I am the new village party secretary. Huang Xiaohu and I visited the villagers of Huilong Village some time ago. At that time, Uncle Wang said that he was not feeling well, so I told him to take care of himself and go to the town hospital when he had time. He said that he has two sons who are very filial, and they will go to the hospital for examination when they come back."

Wang Qinghe interrupted Hu Xiaomei and asked, "How long ago did this happen?"

"About two months or so."

Hu Xiaomei looked at Wang Qinghe, and then said: "Some time ago, the household registration population was re-registered in the village, so I went door-to-door to investigate the situation, but a few days ago I went to Uncle Wang's house, and there was no answer after shouting for a long time. Someone opened the door, and then there was a dog barking fiercely, I was afraid of being bitten by the dog, so I went back first."

Wang Qinghe asked at this time: "Secretary Hu, right? You shouted for a long time and no one opened the door. Don't you think something is wrong?"

Hu Xiaomei continued: "I just felt that something was wrong, so the next day I called Huang Xiaohu, and we went to Uncle Wang's house to knock on the door together. Huang Xiaohu called for a long time, but no one answered, and then he went directly to push the door. I opened the door. Huang Xiaohu and I walked into the room, Huang Xiaohu pushed open the door of the back room, and we found out that Uncle Wang had passed away, and it must have been many days since he passed away."

Wang Qinghe became excited, and said fiercely: "My father passed away for so long, and the body was gnawed like that by rats before you found out. Thanks to you being the secretary of the village branch, are you still human?"

Huang Xiaohu didn't make a sound, but Hu Xiaomei asked back, "What do you mean by that? You know that's your own father, so you have the nerve to ask if we are human? I also want to ask if you are human?"

Wang Qinghe said: "You are the secretary of the village party committee. It just so happens that the village chief Yu is also here. You already knew that my father was in poor health and sick more than two months ago. Go to find my father? That is to say, if it wasn’t for the issue of household registration and population, you, the village party secretary, knew that an old man in the village was sick, but you didn’t take it to heart at all, didn’t you pay attention?”

Hu Xiaomei was questioned, and what Wang Qinghe said was true.If it weren't for the problem of household registration and population, I'm afraid Hu Xiaomei would not go to Uncle Wang's house now.

Huang Xiaohu explained at this time: "Party Secretary Hu also had an accident some time ago. He was attacked by gangsters, so he stayed in the hospital for more than half a month. In that attack, Party Secretary Hu suffered trauma to his head, so his memory was also somewhat affected. Many things are only slowly remembered after gradually recovering.”

Wang Qinghe asked back: "When was the hospitalization? I found out that my father was ill more than two months ago. If we had been informed at that time, or sent my father to the hospital for examination and treatment, this tragedy would not have happened! Secretary Hu , you must be responsible, and we will definitely investigate this matter to the end."

Hu Xiaomei was extremely wronged in her heart, but it was indeed Hu Xiaomei's carelessness at the beginning, and she didn't pay attention to the matter of Uncle Wang's illness in time.

Seeing that Wang Qinghe had no regrets or guilt at all, Huang Xiaohu was very angry in his heart.

Huang Xiaohu said loudly: "Wang Qinghe, if you still have a little conscience and a little humanity, you should learn from your brother and shut up for me!"

Wang Qinghe was stunned, and asked angrily: "Who are you? Village Chief Yu, who is this kid? How dare he speak nonsense here?"

Village head Yu didn't say anything, but Huang Xiaohu continued: "Blood nonsense? Damn, what comes out of the mouth of the top student in the college entrance examination is all fucking literary. Let your nonsense! Have you read too much and your head reads too much?" Stupid? Let me ask you one thing, are you Wang Qinghe's son or Hu Zhishu's daughter?"

Wang Qinghe said: "Although Secretary Hu is not related to my father, as the secretary of the village party committee, he is obliged and responsible to take care of my father. And since he knew my father was ill early in the morning, a normal person would not ignore it. Unless you don’t care about it at all, this must be Party Secretary Hu’s dereliction of duty.”

Huang Xiaohu said: "You are the son of Uncle Wang, and you have a thick skin to talk to outsiders about the responsibilities and obligations of taking care of Uncle Wang. Haven't you heard from Secretary Hu? At that time, Uncle Wang said that he had two sons. They are very filial, and when his two sons come back, they will take him to the hospital for a physical examination. Uncle Wang made it very clear, the first thing that comes to mind is the two filial sons!"

Wang Qingyuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly rushed up and punched Wang Qinghe, and then cried loudly.

Huang Xiaohu didn't understand the situation, the second child went up and beat the eldest, what's going on?

After a while, Wang Qingyuan said: "This matter has nothing to do with Party Secretary Hu or anyone else. Two months ago, it should have been my father's 68th birthday. We promised to come back. But we didn't come back. The eldest brother said that there was an academic seminar and he was too busy to leave; I just discussed with my wife to go to Nangang for a few days, so I didn’t come back; my sister said that I would come back after the New Year.”

Having said that, I finally let everyone know what happened.

Uncle Wang eagerly waited for his son and daughter to come back to celebrate his birthday. Both his son and daughter agreed and made an agreement, but due to work and family life and other reasons, none of them came back in the end.

It's really hard to imagine how happy and anticipating he was on that day, that is, the day of Uncle Wang's birthday, but how sad and disappointed he was in the end.

Wang Qinghe and Wang Qingyuan burst into tears, but now they know what is the use of regretting?If only one of the three brothers and sisters had come back, things probably wouldn't have gotten to where they are now.

Uncle Wang has three children, but before he left, he had no relatives around him. If Hu Xiaomei and Huang Xiaohu hadn't accidentally discovered them, even the corpses would have been eaten up by rats.What a human tragedy.

Hu Xiaomei couldn't help shedding tears when she thought of Uncle Wang's tragic situation.Everyone in the village committee was very sad and began to reflect on this matter.

If one of the sons and daughters had come back, perhaps Uncle Wang would not have left so desolately and alone.

The children have grown up, have their own dreams, and have their own home.Many people have forgotten the two benefactors who worked so hard to raise them with shit and urine.Many people even think, aren't these things that parents should do?
The parents are old, and the children put the two old people aside for their ideals, their careers, and their new family.Only during festivals or parents' birthdays can the children remember that there are still two old people.

It is so high-sounding to say it, and it is so righteous to say it. It turns out that all this is for the pursuit of dreams.Huang Xiaohu said that all pursuit of dreams regardless of parents or caring for them is an act of extreme selfishness and dehumanization.

There is an old saying: Parents are here, so don’t travel far.Now that I think about it, it really makes sense.The ancients all knew that parents need someone to take care of them when they are old, and taking care of them is not just sending money, but companionship.

A few days later, Uncle Wang's daughter followed her Taiwanese husband and brought her two lovely daughters back to the village where she had been raised.The two lovely daughters spoke Mandarin with a Taiwanese accent, which was very nice, but they didn't know why those adults were so sad, so they kept comforting their mother.

Uncle Wang's funeral was very beautiful, and the sons and daughters all wore sackcloth and filial piety, crying like the sky was dark and the earth was dark.

A professional performance and singing team was invited, and they sang and danced for seven days and seven nights.

The villagers who participated in the funeral of Uncle Wang, not only confiscated a penny from the sons and daughters of Uncle Wang, but also returned double the money.That is to say, you originally paid 200 yuan, but they don’t charge you [-] yuan, but return [-] yuan to you, and you still earn [-] yuan.

It turns out that when a person is alive, he does not do many things, but after he dies, he still has many things to do.

Huang Xiaohu didn't dare to say that Uncle Wang's children were not filial, at least they did the funeral, which is probably unprecedented in Huilong Village.

It is said that the coffins selected this time were all imported from abroad.The Taiwanese husband of Uncle Wang's daughter is definitely a big spender. The coffin alone cost more than 20 RMB.

Uncle Wang's two sons were also unambiguous. It is said that the two sons gave a total of 25 yuan to Uncle Wang for funeral affairs.This money is enough to buy a very good commercial house in the county.

More than ten days later, the sons and daughters of Uncle Wang left Huilong Village. What was left behind was a grand burial that the villagers of Huilong Village talked about, and a five-star mountain tomb.

Huang Xiaohu went there specifically to see the elegance of the five-star mountain tomb.Huang Xiaohu saw a magnificent stone curtain, engraved with Uncle Wang's name, the name of Uncle Wang's wife, and perhaps other people's names.

Before leaving, the three Wang Qinghe brothers and sisters went to find Hu Xiaomei and Huang Xiaohu. They not only thanked them, but also wanted to leave a sum of money to express their gratitude, but they were rejected by both Hu Xiaomei and Huang Xiaohu. up.

The matter of Uncle Wang came to an end, and Huilong Village returned to its former peace.
