He naturally understood what I meant, so he held my hand excitedly and said, "Okay! Good brother! Let me also express my attitude here: 'I will do things, don't worry'!"
Instead, I held my old classmate's hand and said excitedly, "I don't worry! I don't worry! I will leave this matter to you!"
Upon hearing this, the old classmate nodded fiercely.
Seeing this, I said firmly: "I solemnly declare in front of my son: As long as it is something you decide, no one in our family can change it!"
The old classmate looked astonished, because he never expected that I would say such a thing.
Seeing his expression, I clenched my hands tightly, and then said to my son: "So-and-so (the nickname for the son), did you hear me?"
Seeing my decisive expression, my son hurriedly replied: "I heard it. I will never change what brother XX (the carpenter's nickname) decides!"
I nodded in satisfaction, and then continued: "Don't forget to tell your mother, don't have soft ears and sway left and right after listening to three aunts and six wives."
"Well, I will definitely tell mother what you said truthfully." The son replied obediently.
In this way, when I felt that my life was about to end, I finally explained clearly the major event I was most concerned about. In fact, I also know that the so-called Chongxi does not necessarily cure my illness. However, no matter whether it is good or bad, the coffin itself must be used. After all, when I get to that place (underworld), this coffin is like a house here (yangjian). Without it (coffin), how can I rely on shelter from wind and rain? It's not that I only think about myself and don't want a much more expensive boutique "Twelve Duan", but if I can't have a good life in the underworld, how can I have the energy to protect my offspring here? I am thinking of myself, but why am I not thinking of the future generations living here?
Everything that should be explained has been explained, and then, the matter of shopping around has to be relied on by old classmates.
An old classmate said that there is a coffin shop in our village, not far from our home. He suggested where to go to see first, if there is any, it is better to go to this shop to order, so that I can often go there to have a look and check by myself. If there is any dissatisfaction, then it is best to let others adjust in time. After I heard it, I naturally agreed. After all, when I bring up the matter of "life tools" now, I just want to take a look at it before I close my eyes. In this way, you can also make yourself feel at ease.
After the matter was decided, there was no need for me to urge, the old classmate and his son went to the coffin shop in Murakami to check the situation. My wife also seemed very positive about this and asked to go with me. I thought I didn't need others to take care of me, so I didn't stop it. However, my son seemed to be worried about me, and called my daughter to my side before leaving.
It's been a long time since they left. During this period, the second brother-in-law (that is, the second uncle of the son) came. So, I chatted with him about "life tools" with great interest. As the son said, the second brother-in-law still has some understanding of this aspect, but compared with his old classmates, there is still a big gap. Therefore, I secretly rejoice in my wisdom. If I hadn't insisted on inviting old classmates over, then I might not be able to rest assured about the preparations for "life tools".
Perhaps the topic of "coffin" was too heavy, so the daughter took an evasive attitude towards it. I didn't insist on letting her know as much common sense in this area as I did to my son. After all, buying "life tools" has always been the son's business since ancient times. However, my daughter was never idle, and prepared a delicate meal for me while we were chatting. In this regard, the wife is not as good. The wife is a rough person, so her diet is far less refined than that of her daughter.
After eating a small bowl, I didn't chat with my second brother-in-law for a long time, and I saw the long-awaited figure. At that time, I was really excited, because the three people who came back carried the last hope in my life. Unfortunately, to my disappointment, the scale of Murakami's coffin shop is too small, so it is impossible to make "twelve-stage" coffins in a short period of time. wait? joke! If I could afford to wait, there would be no need for such haste.
Seeing that my son and wife were very firm in my desire for "12-dan", they didn't persuade me to settle for the next best thing and get a "16-dan". The son and his wife unanimously decided to go to another coffin shop to have a look. That means, they will definitely buy me a "twelve-stage" coffin.
After this delay, it was getting late. The headlight of my son's motorcycle was broken, so I urged them to go back to the city early, otherwise they would be late and they would not be able to see the road clearly.
"But, Dad, what about the 'life tool'?" the son said with some concern.
"Don't worry! There are your second uncle and my old classmates! They will only know more than you." I comforted my son.
"But, after all, they are not good at making decisions for our family. I'm just worried that if we all go back to the city and Mom goes shopping with them, then you will be at home alone" the son said with some embarrassment.
I know what my son means, he is worried about me. I was very moved. Oh, the children are so filial! Even if I close my eyes now, I feel at ease! Of course, such emotional words must never be spoken. "Do you think my mental outlook looks like someone who has something to do? Don't worry, I don't need anyone to take care of me at all! Besides, there are many people in the neighborhood! If it doesn't work, your mother can ask someone to stay here temporarily Take care of it, and then go out together. It's okay, don't worry!" I intentionally bit the last few words hard.
The son thought about it and felt that it made sense. Although I was still a little worried, I had to go back to the city. After all, he still has to work; after all, he still has to pick up and drop off his children to school Alas, in today's society, people with formal jobs can't help themselves in most cases. In the end, the son resolutely embarked on the journey back to the city. From the look in his eyes, I can see a lot of reluctance.
Actually, at that time, I also wanted to say to my son: "Son, Dad is also reluctant to part with you!" I am only more reluctant than my children! After all, at that time, I had already noticed the bad situation of my "return to the light". I'm already not sure if I'll make it to sunrise tomorrow. Perhaps, the departure of the children will be a "farewell"! You said, how could I not have a strong "reluctance" emotion? It's just that, in order to make the girls feel at ease, I tried my best not to let this emotion show up. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
