Chapter 735

Han Lijuan's question is very reasonable, and her purpose is obvious - to ask her "heartless" daughter for money and benefits.

When Han Mingxiu saw that she was so shameless, he was very angry. He wanted to teach her a lesson, so he stopped and looked back and said, "old aunt, we haven't communicated with each other for a long time, and I've forgotten their address and telephone number, but..."

She continued with a smile: "I remember that their family lived on Huaihai Road. Aunt Su's family is a famous family. You can find out where her family is as long as you go there and inquire about it. Otherwise, you can go to find out with my father-in-law..."

Of course, aunt Su's family doesn't live on Huaihai Road. Moreover, Huaihai Road is a famous street in Shanghai. There are so many shops and houses on both sides of it that you can't find out if you want to know.

Han Lijuan was very disappointed when she heard Han Mingxiu say that she didn't remember the address and telephone number. She was about to blame Han Mingxiu. Later, when she heard that she had provided such an important clue, she began to smile again.

"OK, OK. I'll discuss with your old uncle later. If not, we'll go there. We can't just lose our daughter that we managed to raise."

This said, like she gave her daughter to Aunt Su, did not ask for money with aunt su.

Han Mingxiu laughs and agrees: "yes, I really should go to find..."

With that, he chuckled in his heart: go ahead, go ahead, the cost of a trip to Shanghai is enough to pay you and your husband for half a year, but you can't find it. You should be angry to death if you go for nothing

"Oh, by the way, where is it from in Shanghai? You see, my memory is always so bad. I forgot what you said just now. " Han Lijuan said.

Han Mingxiu said, "it's Huaihai Road, or you can find a pen and paper and I'll write it down for you."

"Yes, yes, I should write it down, or I should forget it when I go back..." Han Lijuan felt around, looking for a place where she could get pen and paper.

At this time, the shops on the street have been closed. Because today is the tenth day of the lunar new year, there are few shops in the first month of the lunar new year. Even if there are shops open during the day, people close their doors early before it gets dark and go home for the new year.

"Oh, you see, there's no place to look for a pen and paper. What's the deal?" Han Lijuan said anxiously.

Han Mingxiu also looked around, finally picked up a branch on the ground, and wrote the word "Huaihai Road" on the snowdrift beside the curb.

"Auntie, I've written this address here. You'd better take a pen and paper to copy it tomorrow morning. Anyway, no one moved this word in the evening."

"Good, good..." Han Lijuan looked at the three big words on the snow, as if she had seen her daughter and a lot of money, her eyes lit up all of a sudden.

"I'll go first, or I'll have no place to sleep when the hotel closes." Han Mingxiu threw away the branch, patted the snow foam on her hands, and walked away again.

This time, Han Lijuan did not stop her, only after she walked out more than ten meters away, she gave way symbolically.

"Well, you really don't go to my house to sleep?" Without waiting for Han Mingxiu to reply, Han Lijuan continued: "well, I'll leave first if I don't go. You'll go back to the village tomorrow. Don't tell others that you've seen me, so that they won't talk about my wife again..."

This is for fear that others will not go back to mourning when they hear that she knows that her mother is dead. They are afraid that others will despise her and call her a wolf.

It seems that Han Lijuan still knows how to face, but she has no conscience.

Han Mingxiu ignored her and left without looking back.

After a while, Han Mingxiu found the red flag hotel. It's not bad. It's still open.

As the hotel is state-owned, it happened that Han Mingxiu just went to work on the 10th day of the first day of the lunar new year. He was very lucky and asked the waiter for a clean single room, so he went in.

The next morning, Han Mingxiu took out something to eat from the space. After eating, he took the earliest bus back to Halahai.

When she got to HaLaHai Town, she hired a donkey cart with a shed beside the station and drove all the way to sun aotun.

On the way back, while looking at the villages along the way, she secretly sighed: the change of hometown is really big!

It has to be said that it is indeed a great feat for leaders to implement the reform and opening up policy in China.

In just a few years, the whole country, whether urban or rural, economy is developing rapidly, and the appearance of urban (rural) has undergone earth shaking changes.

Once upon a time, all the villages that I passed from town to village were basically Adobe houses, with few brick houses. But now, along the way, almost all the houses she saw were brick houses, and adobe houses could only be seen for half a day.

It can be seen that the life of farmers is much better than before, and their living standards have been greatly improved.

Looking at the great changes in her hometown, Han Mingxiu is both happy and worried. She is not only happy for the improvement of people's living standards, but also worried about the increasing material wealth of the people in the future.

In the days to come, people's living standards are getting better day by day, but the spiritual world is getting worse day by day.

With the development of economy, many people forget the original simple nature and become more and more materialistic. They have no faith, no bottom line, only know money but not people. As long as they can earn money, they are willing to do anything. Even, many people regard money as the creed of life.

For money, dirty oil, poisonous rice and poisonous milk powder are constantly emerging. All kinds of harmful food and fake and shoddy products are flying all over the world. Even giving children vaccines can become a channel for those who are greedy and have no bottom line to make money

Although the society has developed and the economy has taken off, many people's moral qualities have been lost in the theory of money first.

I remember that her parents in her last life would often miss the simplicity and innocence of the 1960s and 1970s. Although she was poor at that time, she ate all natural green health food, and she didn't have to worry about buying fake goods of poor quality, let alone being slaughtered when she went out

Of course, everything has two sides. The degeneration of human nature may be the price of social development.

……

All the way, she thought wildly and unconsciously returned to sun aotun.

At the gate, she paid the fare and knocked.

The door was opened by Xiao Li.

Seeing that Han Mingxiu came back, Xiaoli hugged her happily: "aunt, it's so nice that you're back..."

Han Mingxiu took Xiaoli's hand and threw it into the yard. He asked strangely:

"As for people, didn't your grandmother move here to live with you? Where is the coffin now? Where are all the people? "

At this time, the yard is cold and quiet, there is no one, it doesn't look like a funeral.

Xiaoli said: "people are in the front yard of my grandmother's house. My uncle won't let me give her a funeral in our house. She has to go out in her own house. My father and my mother have no choice but to park her in her old house. Everyone is there."

Han Mingxiu immediately understood what was going on.

Before, the old lady once said, let the elder sister and his wife provide for him. In the future, his house and the two acres of land will belong to the elder sister and his wife.

When they were supporting the old lady, the aunts and uncles didn't say anything. They wanted to be quiet. But now that the old lady is gone, they want to work hard and rush to share the old lady's property.

If you let the old lady send it at the elder sister's home, it will prove that the old lady is raised by the elder sister, and the property will belong to the elder sister and the two of them?

So, this just makes a fuss to let the old lady go back to her home. It seems that his old uncle and second aunt have a lot of ideas!

There was no time to talk to Xiao Liduo. Han Mingxiu immediately turned around and went to grandma's house.

At this time, there are not many people mourning at Grandma's home. I don't know if it's because the old lady's popularity was not good, or everyone was afraid of the bad luck of mourning in the first month. In such a big yard, there are only the old uncle's family, the second aunt's family and the eldest sister's family.

In addition, there are a few trumpeters holding their fellow shi'er, smoking cigarettes under the wall, and talking about Dashan with flying eyebrows.

Han Mingxiu thought, no wonder I didn't hear the funeral music when I entered the village just now. It turns out that they are lazy here.

Seeing that Han Mingxiu came back, the elder sister staggered forward, hugged her and began to cry.

"Xiuer, you're back. Grandma will be buried tomorrow. I'm afraid you won't come back, and you won't be able to catch up with the last journey of seeing her off... Wuwuwuwu..."

Seeing that the elder sister's eyes were red, her legs were numb on her knees, and she was reeling when she walked, Han Mingxiu immediately felt a little embarrassed.

It's also a granddaughter. Her elder sister is crying like a tearful person, but she can't squeeze out a lump of tears!

Han Mingxiu patted elder sister's back, comforted and said: "elder sister, you have to be mournful. Don't cry on a cold day. For a while, your face should be chapped."

The elder sister wiped her tears and said, "I don't want to cry, but I think that grandma has helped me take care of my children and my family for so many years. Before I have time to be filial to her, she will be gone. In my heart, sobbing, sobbing, sobbing, sobbing..."

Han Mingxiu draws the corner of his mouth, but he can't refute the elder sister's words.

Well, the elder sister has deep feelings for the old lady. If she wants to express her grief, let her express it.

Han Mingxiu picked up the cotton curtain and went into the house. The old lady's coffin was in the middle of the ground.

Seeing the old lady's coffin, Han Mingxiu took off her hat, knelt down in front of the old lady's coffin, gave the old lady a stick of incense, and then kowtowed three times respectfully. It's not only a token of the younger generation's heart, but also a complete death of enmity and enmity with the old lady!

Seeing that Han Mingxiu had finished the ceremony, the old uncle and second aunt called her and discussed with her

"Xiuer, it's just that you're back. We're still thinking about discussing something with you."

"What's the matter?" Han Mingxiu understood what they wanted to say, but pretended to know nothing and asked deliberately.

The old uncle said: "in fact, it's not a big deal. It's the problem of your milk burial. Another problem is the problem of your milk house and land. You have no milk. Who will pay for the burial expenses? And who will inherit her house and the two Mu grain ration field? We have to work hard to decide."

Han Mingxiu laughs and says, "I remember grandma used to arrange things behind her in front of everyone in the village. How come you forgot so soon?"

The old uncle's face flushed slightly, and said angrily, "either we forget, or we don't have this to say? When no one is left, the son has to carry the flag. Which son carries the flag and which son inherits the family property. Now, the old lady's words conflict with the old rule. What do you say to do? "

Compared with the second uncle, the old uncle is more shameful, and not as greedy as the second uncle. Although he wanted to get the old lady's house and land, he didn't go too far.

Han Mingxiu thought about it and said, "it's easy to do. Since it's the rule that the son carries the spirit flag for the old lady, it's up to you to resist, and you will inherit the old lady's house and land."

Uncle didn't expect that Han Mingxiu was so easy to talk. He agreed to inherit the old lady's house and land to him.

Without waiting for him to laugh, Han Mingxiu continued, "since you have inherited my house and land, you have to pay for my funeral expenses and all the profound expenses. I've lived my whole life. This funeral has to be done in a big way. We have to invite all the people in the village to cry, and the cemetery has to be built with bricks, and we have to set up a marble tombstone. Uncle, if you can do this, I can be the master of my elder sister and the couple, and let you inherit my house and land. But if you can't, I'm sorry... "

"All of us in the village can testify to my elder sister and my elder brother-in-law. The old lady said that if we want to leave the house and land to them, they can only inherit it..."
