Chapter five hundred and seventy third funeral
Luo Yang rushed to the hospital and was still one step late. When he arrived at the hospital, Wang Hu had already closed his eyes and left the world.
Looking at Wang Hu lying quietly and covered with a white cloth, countless scenes flashed in front of Luo Yang's eyes, and those familiar faces seemed to be right in front of him, smiling at him.
Zhou Hongqi, Jiang Aiguo, Ma Xiaojun, Liu Lan, He Yuanjun... There are also old branch secretary, old man Wang, and Wang Hu who is standing beside old man Wang.
The brother Huzi, who had taken care of him like his brother, wore a fur coat and a hunting rifle in his hand, walked with a bright and bright laughter, and had a high spirit, and had a handsome face. He has now left this world forever, and is close to Chi, but he is separated from the heavens and the heavens.
After enduring the grief, Luo Yang silently helped his sister-in-law deal with the future generations. Once Wang Hu left, the old Wang family left an orphan and widowed mother. His sister-in-law's mother's family was all ordinary people and could not help much. The Forestry Bureau sent two lesbians from trade unions, but they only helped, and even more of them could not be done.
Li Xiaoyun is a girl who grew up in the city who has never done these things before, but she does not complain at all and is busy with her.
Luo Yang and Li Xiaoyun helped to prepare for the burial, the death to report, the setting up a spiritual shed, etc. Seeing Luo Yang and the others coming from afar, helping so much without even drinking a sip of water, my sister-in-law was extremely grateful and couldn't help but shed tears again when she held Luo Yang and Li Xiaoyun's hands.
From that night to the next day, Luo Yang had been busy all day, and from the time he arrived, he didn't close his eyes much, and he asked Li Xiaoyun to rest first. Li Xiaoyun helped a lot and was already exhausted. Luo Yang couldn't bear it when he looked at her haggard face. Although Li Xiaoyun said that she was not sleepy, her tiredness that she could not control had already fallen into Luo Yang's eyes.
He forced her to sleep in the house. After a while, a snoring sounded and gently closed the door. Luo Yang walked into the yard, sat on a stool and looked up at the bright starry sky in the sky, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.
After taking a few sips, my sister-in-law brought out a bowl of noodles.
"Yozi, come..."
"Thank you sister-in-law." Luo Yang was indeed hungry, so he took a big mouthful and started eating.
The sister-in-law watched Luo Yang sit quietly aside when she ate noodles. Gouwa and her youngest son were already asleep. She was so busy. If it weren't for Luo Yang and Li Xiaoyun, she wouldn't know what to do, a widow.
This is the first time Luo Yang has seen his sister-in-law. He only knew that she had never seen her before. After seeing her, he found out that Wang Hu's wife was really good. She is really a good wife in charge of the family. Unfortunately, Wang Hu went there so early. Next, he had two children to raise them and raised them. It was really difficult for a woman to be a woman.
After eating the noodles, Luo Yang put the bowl aside. He wiped his mouth and glanced at his sister-in-law, and couldn't help asking her about her future plans.
The sister-in-law shook her head and said that she was in a mess now and hadn't thought about it yet. However, because Wang Hu left for business, the unit would give her a pension later and promised to arrange a relaxed job for herself. In this way, raising two children should be enough. When the child grows up, she has a job and a family, she will be able to feel relieved.
"Actually, it's better for your brother Huzi to leave like this." Suddenly, my sister-in-law said this.
Luo Yang looked up at the other party in surprise, and saw his sister-in-law's face with bitterness: "You tiger son has long been sick, he is very sick..."
After listening to his sister-in-law's explanation, Luo Yang understood what was going on. It turned out that Wang Hu suffered from cold and had pneumonia at the end of the year ago. Because he was not treated in time and had added a post, he couldn't leave. With anti-inflammatory drugs, the disease was sometimes better and sometimes worse, and it had been delayed for more than a year.
Some time ago, Wang Hu found out that he had turned from tuberculosis to lung cancer, but this matter was kept hidden from everyone, and he didn't even know about the children except his sister-in-law.
So from this point of view, although Wang Hu passed away unexpectedly, it can be said to be a relief. Moreover, because he was protecting Lin Zi and the country's property and died of gunshot wounds during the firefight by the thief, the unit made arrangements no matter what, at least it would give the family a support in the future.
"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing earlier?" Luo Yang couldn't help but stand up when he heard this. Although he had not come back over the years, he had always contacted Wang Hu with letters and had fixed remittances every month. Of course, his reason for remittance was to ask Wang Hu to help take care of those comrades who had been sleeping forever. In fact, this method was used to help Wang Hu improve his life.
But he never expected that Wang Hu never mentioned this in his letter every time, and seeing that Wang Hu's family's conditions were very bad, it shouldn't be true!
My sister-in-law told Luo Yang that Wang Hu used part of the money to repair Luo Yang's comrades-in-arms tombstones, and the other part was taken out to help villagers who were in trouble.
In the past two years, Wang Hu has secretly helped a lot of people, spending all the money that Luo Yang gave him and even putting in a lot of money. Instead, his family still saves money.
Hearing this, Luo Yang felt uncomfortable. He punched his thigh hard, and tears in his eyes couldn't help falling.
I should have come to see it earlier. If I had come one year earlier... no! If it was half a year, Brother Huzi might not have been like this.
The deep self-blame made Luo Yang very regretful. The reason and simplicity of his failure was because he was afraid of returning to this again to arouse the sadness and sorrow of his heart, so he was unable to come back in time.
He sighed, Luo Yang didn't know what to say for a moment, and it was so uncomfortable to hold it in his heart that he had a lot of words.
"This is a letter left to you by Brother Huzi. He gave it to me last month, saying that if he is gone one day, I will let me give you this letter..." My sister-in-law took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Luo Yang. Luo Yang silently took it and opened the letter, and looked at it through the moonlight.
The content in the letter tells Luo Yang that if Luo Yang reads this letter, it will prove that he has left.
Wang Hu told Luo Yang not to be sad, saying that people will always die, and death is not terrible to him, and perhaps it is still a kind of relief.
It’s a pity that he couldn’t continue to keep his promise with Luo Yang, nor could he watch the two children of Gouwa grow up, which is a pity.
At the end of the letter, Wang Hu told Luo Yang that after his death, he would handle everything simple, and after cremation, he would be buried in that forest and buried with their comrades. Although he could not do more for Luo Yang and his comrades, he hoped to do what he could do in the end in this way.
As for the arrangements of his wife and children, Wang Hu didn't mention them a word. Maybe he didn't want to make Luo Yang embarrassed, or he didn't want to mention them at all.
Wang Hu is not well educated, the content in the letter is not long, and there are a few typos, but this letter made Luo Yang feel very uncomfortable when he saw it. Big tears dripped down, wetting a large piece of letter paper.
After sniffing, Luo Yang put away the letter.
Wang Hu's letter moved him extremely, and he also deeply blamed himself. For a moment, he had some thoughts in his mind, but he would wait until Wang Hu's funeral was finished.
After chatting with my sister-in-law for a while, Wang Hu also went to rest under his sister-in-law's persuasion. Although he was extremely tired, he couldn't sleep. His mind was full of Wang Hu's shadow during his lifetime, and some comrades and familiar figures.
It was not until the early morning that Luo Yang gradually fell asleep. After a few hours of sleep, he got up again. After washing up, he continued to help his sister-in-law's family with the rest of their work.
On the third day, Wang Hu was buried. When the memorial service was held, the warm urn was delivered, and the sister-in-law and Gouwa couldn't help crying. Luo Yang was also crying, while Li Xiaoyun next to him was crying secretly.
The Forestry Bureau sent comrades to attend the memorial service. After the memorial service, a leader found his sister-in-law and discussed the subsequent arrangements.
Luo Yang took the initiative to accompany his sister-in-law to meet the people from the unit, and Li Xiaoyun also accompanied him. When the unit leader made the arrangements, Luo Yang became angry in an instant and directly expressed in front of the other party that these conditions would never be accepted. Wang Hu died on duty and he was a hero! Where can the heroes receive such treatment? This is far from what they said before. Isn’t this bullying orphans and widows?
"Who are you? This is the decision of our organization! Can you represent Wang Hu's family?" The person who was talking about it was a middle-aged cadre, short, fat, half-bald, and heard that he was a section chief, with a arrogant attitude. Seeing Luo Yang objecting and questioning him in person, he snorted from his nostrils with disdain, and did not take Luo Yang in sight.
"You can't control who I am! I think you understand very well that if you don't say such a good comrade is a martyr, at least you have died on duty. You will treat the families of the sacrificed comrades like this?" Luo Yang asked without hesitation.
"Hmph, don't think we don't know that Wang Hu had a terminal illness long ago. This time he just took this opportunity to get some benefits for his family. Let me tell you the truth, the organization has already investigated it, and anyone who wants to take advantage of the organization is a delusion. This condition is already good! It doesn't matter if you don't recognize it, and the organization will completely ignore it in the future!" The fat man sneered at Luo Yang and the others, and these words made Luo Yang suddenly get angry.
I originally heard from my sister-in-law that the unit would give Wang Hu a pension and then help her to solve the work and arrange a relaxed position.
If this is the case, at least the unit will do it well, but now the pension is gone, with only a mere 160 yuan consolation fee. As for the work arrangements, there is no need to think about it. The fat man used Wang Hu's illness and even maliciously threw dirty water on Wang Hu, which made Luo Yang intolerable.
"Yozi..." My sister-in-law on the side couldn't help but speak. She was a woman and had never seen the world. Although she felt wronged, she didn't want to be troubled. In simple terms, she could only say that her life was not good.
And she subconsciously might also think that Wang Hu was seriously ill, and she shouldn't have kept this from the unit. Now it sounds normal for the unit to do this. There is no need to argue with the unit. After all, the arm can't twist the thigh.
