    I don't know if Yaomei will have an epiphany one day, but I can be sure that Yaomei has left a gap in her life that can never be made up.  Of course, Yaomei herself may not think that this can be called a shortcoming.  Perhaps, for Yaomei, not having an epiphany is not necessarily a bad thing, at least there is no need to regret her decisions and actions.

    Since the operation, although my father has never mentioned the matter of Yaomei, I know that before his death, my father must still want to see his little daughter who he refuses to recognize very much.  It's just that, for fear of embarrassing us, after all, this is a difficult thing to achieve, so I have been reluctant to mention it.  I think, if it weren't for the unfulfilled wish to recognize Yaomei, then my father might have passed away more peacefully.

    When the wiping was finished, the brother-in-law happened to arrive with the shroud he had bought.  After a brief inspection, the two men told us that the shroud was missing a red ribbon.  When we were worrying about this, the two comforted: "Don't worry, we have it." Then, they asked me to go to a certain place in the outpatient hall of the hospital to get it.

    With so many thoughts and constant busyness, I didn't have time to grieve at all, and I left in a hurry.  For me who have lived here for nearly a month, everything here is quite familiar.  We quickly found the right place, explained our purpose, got a long and thin red ribbon smoothly, and hurried back.

    I handed the red ribbon to those two people.  Now, I don¡¯t think it¡¯s unfair to spend the two hundred yuan, otherwise, with our family¡¯s grief and ignorance, it would be really difficult to handle the series of things like cleaning my father¡¯s body and changing his shroud.

    Regardless of whether I want to accept it or not, my father's death has become a reality, so I have to take advantage of the gap and call from time to time to tell my relatives the sad news of my father's death.  The first thing I thought of was my cousin, because I have to transport my father back today anyway, and I can only rely on my cousin for all the preparations at home.  With my cousin's disposition, he would naturally not refuse.  My cousin reassured me a little, and reassured me that everything at home was up to him, so there was no need to worry.  I told my cousin that my second uncle had the key to my house, and I immediately asked my second uncle to rush to my house.  Immediately afterwards, I called my second uncle and asked him to rush to my house as quickly as possible to open the door.

    Before my father's shroud was all worn out, I had already reported the funeral to many relatives.  Next, all I have to worry about is the vehicle.  However, with the existence of those special groups of people, as long as there is enough money, everything is not a problem.

    After the two men finished their work and got paid, they did not leave immediately.  Instead, he approached me and asked me, have you found the car to carry the old man home?  See I answered no.  The two immediately got excited and said, they can help me find a vehicle.  Because I was already wary of these two people, so I didn't agree.

    Both of these two are shrewd people, and when they saw my hesitant attitude, they knew what I meant.  Therefore, they immediately stated that they only wanted to help us because they were paid by us.

    Of course I'm not a fool, and I couldn't help showing a disapproving expression after listening to their explanations.

    When they saw this, they went on to say: "I know you don't believe it. That's all right, I'll give you their phone number. You can contact them yourself. After they come, you can negotiate the price with them yourself. We will never  Do not participate. In this way, you will always believe in our sincerity, right?"

    I thought about it, and felt that what they said made some sense, and for a while, I didn't know where to find this special vehicle.  Because, I have already asked the doctor.  The ambulance in the hospital will only help rescue the living, but will never help transport the dead.  So, I asked for their phone numbers and decided to give it a try.  After all, it is up to me to decide. If I find something wrong, then I will immediately reject them.  Thinking of this, I tentatively asked: "I don't know, how should I negotiate the fare?"

    When the two heard the words, they immediately knew that there was something going on, so they suppressed the joy in their hearts, pretended to be very sincere and replied: "We are doing you a favor and introducing you because you are a straightforward person. As for  The specific price of the fare is ultimately up to you to decide. Of course, when someone comes over, they may ask for a random price, and you must counter the price with him. I can only give you a suggested price. Judging from our many years of experience, from  From here to your house, five hundred yuan is about the same. Of course, how much it will be in the end depends on your ability to bargain."

    Seeing that their words were quite sincere, I couldn't help but feel less wary of them, so I made a phone call.  The man was also refreshing, saying that he would be there soon.  After arriving at the hospital, that person didn't seem to know exactly which floor and which ward he was on, so he called me back.  In desperation, I had to go down to the first floor to pick it up.

      It was an old man in his fifties or sixties.  As soon as I came here, I was vaccinated in advance.  "You also know that this kind of thing is different from ordinary chartered cars. The fare is much higher than ordinary ones."

    I have already been mentally prepared for this, so I replied calmly: "I know, don't need to circle around with me, how much does it cost to go to such and such a place?"

    "You can also see that I am an honest person, and I will never ask you for anything" The old man put on a rather honest and pitiful look.

    I knew at a glance that this guy was putting on a show, so I interrupted him angrily and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Make a price, how much do you want?"

    Seeing that his words backfired, the old man stopped talking and directly quoted a price of "seven hundred".

    "Hmph, you said you don't want anything!" I snorted angrily, "I've inquired about it long before you came here. When you come to our place, it usually costs 500 yuan."

    "What? Five hundred?" The old man put on an unbelievable look, "How is it possible? Where did you find out the price. It's absolutely impossible! These days, it's only five hundred, who would want to do this (unlucky  of) things!"

    "Believe it or not!" I replied unhurriedly.

    "Let's do this, six hundred, definitely not below six hundred! You don't have to lower the price with me anymore, and I will leave immediately!" The old man was used to the scene, and when he found that the situation was not right, he immediately said furiously on purpose.  His move can be said to have captured the mentality of most people. At this time, those who are eager to send their relatives home are a little worried about the problem of the vehicle.  Therefore, under this tried and tested intimidation, it is no longer known how many family members of the deceased were forced to submit.

    It's a pity that his move didn't have much effect on us.  "If you leave, I don't believe it. There will be no vehicles in the countryside. If I give you two hundred yuan, they will definitely rush to grab a tractor. So-and-so, call my cousin and ask him to find a car."  When the brother-in-law heard the words, he quickly came and treated him in his own way.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
