Chapter 36
Song Wei's voice stunned everyone in the courtyard.

Father Wen, who was stepping on the bamboo ladder to tie white flowers on the lintel, almost lost his balance and fell.

The Xie family's father and son, who had just returned from cutting and carrying the coffin on the mountain, stared wide-eyed.

The members of the Song family who were still talking before even shut up one after another.

All eyes were turned outward.

I saw Father Song wearing a coarse cloth bunt with high rolled trouser legs, his body was wet with dew, his cloth shoes were covered with yellow mud, and he was holding two hares in his hands, which looked like they had just been beaten.

The coffin prepared for him was parked in the main room, and the deity stood outside right now and asked what happened?

"Damn, what the hell is this?"

Uncle Xie dropped the hatchet, strode out the door, looked at Father Song excitedly, "Second Brother, is it really you?"

Father Song was a little confused about the situation, and he was anxious, "Old Xie, who happened?"

Uncle Xie put his hand on Old Song's shoulder, pressed it, and felt the presence of a solid and big living person. Then he glanced at the white silk and white filial piety clothes in the courtyard, and suddenly felt embarrassed and didn't have the nerve to speak.

Song Wei came over, "Father, didn't you go to the mine?"

"Yes!" Father Song nodded, "I was indeed in the mine before, but later I found out that I was cheated, so I discussed with my in-laws about escaping. No, when the mine collapsed, we got separated, and I was in the chaos. I met Dalang from your Aunt Jiang’s house, he was also working in the mine, and thanks to him, I was able to escape from that ghostly place. Later, that big cousin of yours led me to live in the house for two days, The road to our house was washed away, and I was asked to wait for a period of time for the road to be repaired before returning. I was worried, so I had to go around the mountain road and come early."

As he said that, he handed the rabbit to Song Wei, and said, "In the woods, I happened to meet the trap I set up earlier and caught two rabbits, so I brought them back along the way."

Song Wei looked at the rabbit in his hand, a little speechless.

Mrs. Song heard Papa Song's voice, wiped her tears with both hands, and ran out in two or three steps.

When I saw someone, I was stunned for a moment, and then I was angry and funny, "You old man, you didn't come back early when you had nothing to do, and made the whole family cry here, look at you, mud pond Rolling around in the bed? Hurry up and go into the house to wash up."

Father Song looked at his old wife. He hadn't seen her for two months. She had lost a lot of weight. Probably because of the mine incident, she got angry and her mouth got a few blisters.

Fortunately, it is still the same tofu heart as always.

What else does Father Song not understand?
The family thought that others were gone, and they were doing funeral affairs!
"I'm back, haven't I?" In front of everyone, Father Song didn't have the cheek to say something coaxing and obedient. Everyone is busy."

"Hey, what stupid things did my in-laws say? It would be a waste of time to do this kind of thing." Father Wen walked out and looked at the unscathed Old Song, feeling a burst of gratitude in his heart.

"Yes, yes, it's better to be busy for nothing." Uncle Xie echoed twice, slapped his hands, and reminded everyone, "Since the second brother is back, let's worry about it and remove all the things! I'll give it to you later Stew rabbit meat to eat."

After finishing speaking, he took the two fat rabbits from Song Wei's hands, smiled and glanced at Father Song, "Second brother, let's have a good drink later?"

"That's right, that's right." Father Song, who was not good at words, nodded repeatedly.

When Papa Song came back, everyone’s faces turned cloudy, and their work became more energetic. After a while, the mourning hall was evacuated and the coffin was transported out. The white silk and white flowers said it was unlucky, and a fire was set outside the door After it was burned, Song Wei took out two firecrackers and set them off. Mrs. Song found a new set of clothes that Father Song hadn't worn much, and put them on. After that, she welcomed the people in, and sent Song Fang to bring the copper coins. I went to Liu Sanhuozi's house and cut several catties of meat.

The originally gloomy funeral banquet quickly turned into a reunion banquet to welcome Song Lao's return.
