    Fortunately, although I felt like I was in a dream just now, when the doctor announced that my father had "passed away", I still instinctively looked at the time.  At 5:58 p.m. on October 13, 2014, the father who has been strong all his life, the father who made me admirable, the father who has straightened his waist all his life, and the proud father, finally failed  Escaped from the clutches of the tumor, died suddenly and left us forever.

    Since then, I have become the only male in the family, and I have to take over the robbing from my father and bravely provoke the leader.  I don't have time to grieve at all.  Pulling myself together, the first thing I thought of was the son of my father's aunt's cousin. He once said that he would come to visit after get off work this afternoon.  Now that his father has passed away, there is no need for him to come to visit.  So, I first called him.  From the perspective of blood relationship, his father is his elder; from the perspective of work, his father is half of his master.  Because of family affection, because of the half-master-student friendship, he was very sad.  Finally, he couldn't help but lamented "how could it be so fast".

    After dealing with the most urgent matters, I had to figure out how to deal with my father.  Father's death is a foregone conclusion, whether I want to believe it or not, it cannot be changed.  According to traditional customs, the most important thing Chinese people pay attention to is "fallen leaves return to their roots"!  Therefore, the next thing I need to consider is how to transport my father back to his hometown in the countryside.

    His father did not die of illness in another place, so there was no need to go through unusually complicated procedures.  However, this does not mean that this matter will be easy to deal with.  Because, influenced by feudal superstition, most people think that transporting dead bodies is quite unlucky.  For many people, even if you give more money, he will not be willing.  The first thing that gave me a headache was where can I find a vehicle that can transport my father's body back to my hometown?

    The mother's screaming cry soon attracted a large group of onlookers.  In the hospital, there are actually some special groups.  To put it bluntly, what this group of people earn is purely dead money.  In the past, I only heard about it occasionally, but this time, I actually dealt with them once.

    People from these special groups are included in the attracted people.  At first, judging by their clothes, I thought they were hospital security guards.  Under the guidance of the family members of other patients in our ward, these two security guards approached me.  At the time, I was wracking my brains about the vehicle.

    They first confirmed my identity.  This is the so-called industry experience.  If the wrong person is mistaken, wouldn't it become a curse on the death of his father?  If you encounter someone with a bad temper, you may not be able to do business, and you may get punched.

    One of them expressed great regret for my father's death. After paying tribute in silence, he said to me: "We can understand your feelings. It's just that people can't be resurrected after death. You are just so blindly sad.  It's not a problem."

    I didn't really know their identities at that time, so their words and deeds won me a great favor for a while.  In my opinion at the time, these two security guards should be of the very enthusiastic kind, so I asked for help: "Oh, my father's death was really sudden, and we have never encountered such a situation, so except  In addition to being sad, I really feel a little at a loss, not knowing how to deal with the predicament in front of me."

    "Little brother, since you said that, then brother, I will talk more." The other person heard the words and immediately understood that there was something to be said, so he hurriedly spoke.

    What I said just now is the truth. Although I tried to maintain my calm, the specific details of my response were really not clear. At this time, I was able to meet two very enthusiastic security guards, and I immediately felt like I had found support.  "This big brother is too polite. If I can get your advice, I would be very grateful."

    "I think the most urgent thing is to change the shroud for the old man first. Don't blame me for speaking harshly. It is easier to change clothes now while the body is still warm. If you delay it for a while, after your body becomes stiff, you just want to change  , I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s a bit difficult. I¡¯m not alarmist, we¡¯ve seen a lot here. I¡¯m just telling the truth.¡±

    There is something in this man's words that there is no silver three hundred taels here.  He repeatedly emphasized that "I am not alarmist" and "tell the truth", but in fact it is an obvious manifestation of guilt.  It's just that I, who was a bit confused at the time, didn't doubt what these two people thought at all after I developed a certain liking for them.  "Yes, what you said makes sense. But, my father left a little too suddenly, and we haven't had time to buy him a shroud yet!" I said with some embarrassment.

    "Then what are you waiting for, buy it quickly!" One of them pretended to be anxious and urged, "Little brother, don't worry, I think so. You need to cleanse yourself before changing clothes.??Why not, the two of us will wipe the body of the old man first, and at the same time, you should quickly find a way to buy a shroud"

    Now, no matter how stupid I am, I already know what these two people do.  It seems that the real purpose of their "enthusiasm" is to make a deal, and their "help" just now is all for "money".  Immediately, my opinion of these two people changed sharply.  "Isn't it best to buy from you?" I interrupted the man mercilessly, and asked coldly.

    "It's not impossible." The man replied instinctively, but then he felt the obvious coldness in my words, so he quickly changed his mouth, "Of course, it depends entirely on you. If you are not free, then  I just need to make a phone call, and I guarantee that it will be delivered immediately. Moreover, you can actually go outside to inquire, and it will definitely not be more expensive than selling outside."

    "Then, how much does a set of shrouds cost?"

    After hearing my answer, the man thought I would buy from them, so he replied with bright eyes: "Two hundred."

    "Oh, no need. My brother-in-law lives not far from here, so I called him right away and asked him to buy it and bring it here."

    After hearing my answer, the man's face darkened obviously, but he returned to normal immediately.  "I don't know if you have prepared towels, face plates and the like?"

    As soon as I heard this man, I knew what he meant, so I asked straight to the point: "How much do you charge for scrubbing and changing shrouds?"  Help is also necessary.  It's just that I still understand the principle of "the villain first, and the gentleman second", otherwise unnecessary troubles will likely be caused at that time.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
