Chapter 429

Seeing the secretive smile on Yu Xiaofan's face, Xiaopang immediately understood that everyone has their own secrets, and since Xiaofan didn't plan to tell him yet, it's not suitable for him to ask too much.

The two walked out of the store very easily to find Uncle Wang. When they found Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang was blushing and talking to the peddler because of the price of the chicken.From this order of wine, it can be seen that Uncle Wang is a real person, knowing that Xiaopang has no money, he tried his best to make him spend less money.

After the three bought it, they were about to put it back, when Uncle Wang suddenly realized a problem, "Xiao Pang, where is the coffin you bought, why didn't you see it?"

Xiaopang looked at Yu Xiaofan, not knowing how to answer.Yu Xiaofan looked at Uncle Wang calmly, "Uncle Wang, the coffin has already been sent to Xiaopang's house ahead of time, so you don't have to worry."

Uncle Wang was very puzzled, "Which coffin shop is this that is so good that they are willing to deliver it on such a long mountain road?"

Yu Xiaofan didn't change his expression when he talked about panic, he was calm and at ease, "They saw Xiaopang's filial piety, so they were willing to help this favor."

Uncle Wang didn't ask too much, after all, they were still in a hurry to go back, and they were also in a hurry to use these ingredients to make some for tomorrow's dinner.

Yu Xiaofan rushed to Xiaopang's house before Uncle Wang and Xiaopang, then looked around and saw no outsiders were there, quickly took out the coffin from the space and put it on the ground.

Uncle Wang went to Xiaopang's house and saw that the coffin was already placed there impressively. It seemed that it was delivered by the coffin shop in the county town.

At noon the next day, almost everyone in the village rushed to Xiaopang's house to have a meal. Although Xiaopang's house was small, there was a large open space in front of his house, which could fit a dozen tables.When the food was served, everyone was dumbfounded. Did this chubby get rich outside? The food is so good?

Steamed fish, stewed trotters with soybeans, braised chicken, and many other fresh and delicious side dishes.For people in big cities, it may be such a sumptuous family dinner, but for people in this valley, it may be the first time they have eaten such a good meal after living for so many years.

Everyone started whispering, Xiaopang was so busy that he didn't pay much attention to the comments of the villagers.It wasn't until more than ten minutes after the banquet started that Xiaopang hurried over, standing on a temporary stage sweating profusely, holding a glass of wine to everyone, "I am Xiaopang here, thank you very much for your kindness to our family over the years. I know that everyone’s life is actually very difficult, but when I was in school, my grandfather often borrowed money from the villagers because of my tuition fees, and everyone was willing to donate generously to help my family. I know, Later, because I went out to work and my grandfather was in poor health, many folks were embarrassed to ask my grandfather for money, so a lot of borrowed money just rotted away.

But I swear to the folks here, as long as my grandfather borrows money from you, even if it is only a dime, I will return it to you.I can't take advantage of everyone's goodwill to deprive everyone. In the future, I will not go to big cities again, and will stay here to develop our hometown wholeheartedly, so I hope everyone will work together in the future to build our hometown even better! "

Listening to Xiaopang's speech, everyone has various emotions. Over the years, they have indeed helped Xiaopang's family a lot. Now that the golden phoenix sent out in this ravine has come back to help build their hometown, they are very happy. move.

After lunch, all the strong men in the village brought their fellows and followed the village head and Uncle Wang to the place where the chubby grandpa was buried before. This is chubby and Yu Xiaofan's first visit to this place.

This is the final home of the deceased old people in the village. The village chief pointed to a dirt bag, "Xiao Pang, this is your grandpa!"

Xiaopang's eyes turned red again, and he knelt directly in front of his grandfather's grave, his voice extremely sad, "Grandpa, your unfilial grandson is back!"

Uncle Wang has already ordered everyone to use black cloth and shelves to build a shelf in front of the tomb. This is the custom in Xiaopang's hometown. Before moving the tomb, the people who have gone inside must not be allowed to see the sun.

Soon the shelf was laid and the black cloth was spread.Immediately, several strong men from the village came over to shovel the soil with shovels and helped dig out the coffins that had been buried before.

The village chief also stood aside and watched quietly. Suddenly, he finally saw the coffin they had buried in before.For some reason, the coffin was wet, as if it had been soaked in water, Xiao Pang was even more sad, this is indeed a thin coffin, before the coffin was opened, he could vaguely see the Grandpa's clothes exposed through the gap.

The village chief looked at Uncle Wang in shock, "Xiao Wang, what's going on?"

Xiao Wang also looked at the village head in surprise, "I don't know either!"

This place is known as the driest place in the village, so for so many years, the dead old people in the village have been buried here. Even if the coffins were dug out in the past many years, as long as they were not eaten by termites, the coffins would definitely remain the same.This is the first time I have seen a wet coffin.

Although Yu Xiaofan didn't know exactly what happened, but he also noticed something strange from the strange eyes of the village chief and Uncle Wang, and looking at the wet and thin coffin, Yu Xiaofan was also very puzzled, isn't this place the famous dry coffin? Is there no groundwater?How can it be wet?
Could it be that there is some groundwater here?

Fatty finally stopped crying, looked at the village chief and asked, "Village chief, what happened?"

The village chief said with a gloomy face, "Little Fatty, I don't think this place can be used to bury your grandfather. We have to choose another place."

Although Xiao Wang didn't quite understand why, he nodded obediently, "Okay, follow the village chief's orders."

After such a weird thing happened, it suddenly became the command of the village chief.The village chief ordered Xiaopang to turn around, fearing that he would not be able to bear seeing his grandfather's appearance at this time.

The other strong men in the village endured the nausea and quickly helped transport the chubby grandpa from the original coffin to the new one.Yu Xiaofan didn't evade, but stared straight at the busy people.

Chubby's grandfather was already swollen and his face was blurred. Fortunately, it was already winter, and the temperature here was several degrees lower than other places, so the corpse did not smell too bad.

After everyone helped to put it into the new coffin, the village chief ordered people to sprinkle quicklime over all the gaps.Then everyone closed the coffin lid and looked at the village chief in embarrassment.

The pit where the thin coffin used to be was not filled with water, but a deep pit, so dark that it was impossible to see where the bottom was.
