    ?

    Before it was time for dinner, the horns on the stage of the military band had already sounded at high decibels.  Marching bands are very accurate in their positioning, and they are hired largely out of vanity.  That being the case, then we (the military band) will satisfy your (main family) vanity to the greatest extent possible.  Therefore, before the official performance, they (marching bands) generally make a lot of noise.  Their purpose is only one, and that is to make him known to everyone.

    As the most important funeral event in a person's life, it must be very solemn, so the number of relatives, friends and neighbors who gather here is very large.  With such a large number of people, it is naturally impossible for all of them to attend on time.  Therefore, the most formal and grand dinner party started a little later.

    The noisy propaganda offensive of the military band is still very effective.  It wasn't long before the dinner at my house started, and a considerable number of fathers and folks had already gathered around the still empty stage.  Of course, this is mainly middle-aged and elderly people.  Because, young people are either going out to work, or they are not interested in this kind of performance at all.

    I don't care about any changes outside, I just stick to my father's side all the time.  If someone came, he would give a gift; if no one came, he would quietly accompany his father, and place some yellow paper from time to time.

    The dinner party finally officially started.  My mother came over immediately and asked me to eat first.  These days, when I was eating, my mother came over to temporarily help me stay by my father's side.  I didn't say much, just went straight to it.  The so-called "mother-child connection", I know this is a way for my mother to show her concern for me.  If I refuse, it will make my mother feel uncomfortable.  Every time, I am like this, when my mother asks me to eat, I go directly without any evasion.  I paid homage to my five internal organs temple with the fastest speed, and then returned to my father and replaced my mother with the fastest speed.  In this way, mother can enjoy meals in peace of mind and leisurely.

    The family banquet is naturally somewhat professional, so the speed of serving the food is quite fast.  Due to the special situation, I drank the drink as soon as I was on the table, and then hurried to serve the meal.  Seeing my turbulent appearance, people will naturally persuade me to slow down.  I just chewed and explained vaguely: "I want to finish eating quickly so I can change my mother!" My eating speed is already quite fast. According to conservative estimates, it must be less than one-third of the average person's eating time.  But even under such circumstances, I also ate a lot of dishes.  From this, it is not difficult to see how fast the food is served for the family banquet.

    For this family banquet, we are based on the principle of "cheap and good quality", so it is definitely not comparable to the high standard of my cousin's house, but judging from the various dishes that cover the dining table, it is barely passable.  At the very least, it won't give people a too shabby feeling.

    When I finished eating, the various dishes on the table were basically untouched.  I stood up, greeted everyone, and left in a hurry.  Seeing the dejected mother next to the ice coffin, I couldn't help but feel a pain in my heart.  "Mom, it's time to eat!" I hurriedly reminded me to distract my mother.

    "Oh" The mother stood up slowly after hearing the words.

    I saw the sadness on my mother's face quietly passing away, and I felt a little better.  I know that tonight is destined to be an unforgettable night, and it must be a sad night at the same time.  Immediately, under the enticement of the military band, the mother's long-repressed grief will burst out violently in all likelihood.  Alas, it is only a moment to be able to slow down for a while!  I sighed in my heart.  Because, I know that my mother's grief caused by my father's death cannot be completely resolved in a short period of time.

    "Mom, that's where I was sitting just now." I pointed and said, "It's not long before the table starts, so don't worry, eat slowly." I know that my mother always eats very slowly and there is not enough food.  Mother definitely can't get enough to eat, "Mom, you're going late, if you can't do it, let the person who helped clean up the table wait a little longer."

    In fact, a lot of what I said was nonsense.  Because my mother is not as shy as I am. If she is in a good mood, she will naturally ask the person who clears the table to wait a while before the meal is finished.  Even, because of this, they would joke with those who cleared the table while eating.  The reason why I say this is just to convey to my mother my concern for her.  I tried to warm the deep sadness in my mother's heart through "the son's concern for his mother".  Of course, these "nonsense" can also properly distract the mother's attention, so as to prevent the mother from sinking too much in grief.

    "I know, do you need to explain this!" Mother scolded, then turned and left.

    From the look on my mother's face before she left, I already knew that what I said just now played a big role.  At least, on the surface, theThe sadness on the kiss's face had completely dissipated.  I hope that my mother didn't deliberately hide her sadness deep in her heart.

    There are many middle-aged and elderly people who come to eat, so many people also want to watch the military band performance.  People with this kind of thinking will naturally eat faster.  On a dining table, as long as there are one or two such people, it is easy to drive the speed of eating at the whole table.  So, it didn't take long before there were only a few people scattered around the dozen or so round tables.  I feel that this banquet ended much faster than the one at my cousin's house.

    Those who come to eat and want to watch the performance, after eating, they will naturally take the stool they sat on while eating and go around to wait in front of the stage.  Those who didn't want to watch the performance, just moved their buttocks, and the stools were already snatched away by the crowd waiting aside.  Many people came to watch the show, but they didn't bring their own stools, so they sent their ideas to our house.

    It seems that it is only a blink of an eye, besides a dozen large round tables in the large drying yard, there is no empty stool except for those who are still sitting and eating.  It is not difficult to see from this that the savage noise of the marching band is very effective.  It's a pity that the effect is so good that the disadvantages are gradually revealed.  After the stools on the drying yard were "looted", people who still hadn't won (in dialect, meaning to grab) the stools began to make their minds on the stools in our house.  Soon, as long as there is no one to sit on, no matter whether it is a chair or a stool, they will be "looted" by them.  In the end, it created such a sad situation that it became a luxury for relatives and friends who did not go to see the show to find a place to sit and rest for a while.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
