Speaking of this, Yang Ruoqing slowed down and sighed.
"I heard them say earlier that the funeral should have been held yesterday, but it couldn't be delayed in such a hot day," Yang Ruoqing said.
"It happened that the second son and daughter-in-law of the Xu family went to Qing'an County to visit relatives with their children."
"The family waited for them to come back to see Xu's mother for the last time, so they waited for a whole day."
Even though I borrowed ice and put it near the body to help cool down, the day was so hot that in less than an hour, the ice melted into most of the basin of water.
The Xu family had no choice but to buy various spices to cover the smell. I heard that they sold out all the spices in several spice shops in the town.
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she shrugged regretfully.
"This person is worse than a dog. Xu's mother was such a decent and clean person during her lifetime. Although I didn't see her very often, every time I saw her, she was dressed cleanly and her hair was neatly combed," Liu Shi said.
"Look, when this person dies, he has no dignity at all. When he lies there, he is just a pile of stinky meat. He will be despised to death!"
Both sighed.
Mr. Liu, a greedy person, came here to watch the fun and eat at the banquet, but as a result, he lost his appetite due to the smell.
Yang Ruoqing didn't say anything, but she actually had the same idea as Liu.
She didn't want to eat this meal and couldn't eat it.
I felt uncomfortable with this kind of banquet, especially after being filled with the smell of corpses, I even refused to eat the banquet.
"Qing'er, where should we go next?" Ms. Liu asked as she walked.
Yang Ruoqing looked around, "Take you to the hospital first?"
Mrs. Liu immediately waved her hand: "No, no, I'm fine. I was just pretending before!"
"What? Pretending? But I saw that your face was pale at the time, sweat was on your forehead, and you looked like you were about to fall down at any time!"
"Hey, I was just pretending. If I wasn't pretending like that, I'd be afraid I wouldn't be able to come out smoothly!"
Yang Ruoqing shook her head.
The best actor and best actress is none other than Liu.
"Then tell me, where should we go?" Yang Ruoqing asked Liu.
Ms. Liu looked around: "It's so hot, why don't we go to a restaurant? Let's go to your Tianxiang Restaurant?"
"What? You want to have dinner at my Tianxianglou? No!" Yang Ruoqing said.
It's not impossible, but Tianxiang Tower is a bit far away from here. One is in the eastern suburbs of the town, and the other is in the center of the town. It takes two long streets.
Walking over there at noon on this hot day, Ms. Liu didn’t suffer from heat stroke, but Yang Ruoqing almost suffered from heat stroke!
"Besides, I already agreed to meet my father and others at Yihechun Medical Center, so we can't leave the area." Yang Ruoqing added.
Mrs. Liu thought for a while, "If I remember correctly, there seems to be a noodle shop next to Yihechun. How about we go there to have a meal?"
"After you finish eating, how about waiting for your father and the others there?"
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows: "Let's talk about it first, who is going to treat us?"
Mrs. Liu clutched her purse, looking like her flesh ached, "Fourth Aunt is an elder and a poor person. Do you want to take advantage of your elders?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "You elders have a really bad memory. Do you want me to remind you how much you ate of me?"
"With all the money you spent eating my food, it's not an exaggeration to ask me to go to a big restaurant for a meal. A bowl of noodles, tsk tsk, I'll make you feel bad!"
Ms. Liu's face was full of reluctance, but in the end she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'm willing to risk it all, and I'll let you blackmail me now!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled and hugged Mrs. Liu: "Let's go, let's go, I'm hungry!"
On a hot day, there were very few people in the noodle shop. It is estimated that on such a hot day, everyone would stay at home and not want to come out.
The two of them found a table that didn't look too greasy and sat down. Yang Ruoqing ordered a bowl of fried noodles and some spicy beef offal.
Mrs. Liu also wanted to order some, but she was worried about the money, so she ordered a green pepper shredded pork noodles.
"Qing'er, it's easy to get angry after eating beef offal in this hot weather and cause fire blisters in your mouth. Fourth aunt will help you eat a few pieces later, okay?"
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness. No need to help. I have coptis and mung bean soup at home."
"Ah? Well, I won't order any snacks. Can you give me a piece of your beef offal later? Really just one piece?" Mrs. Liu discussed this with Yang Ruoqing again.
Yang Ruoqing shook her head decisively: "No, you order it yourself. If you don't order it, it means you don't want to eat it. Don't wait until everything is served and then poke your chopsticks into my bowl. I won't give it to you!"
Mr. Liu gritted his teeth.
Finally, he turned to the waiter and shouted: "Add a spicy beef offal!"
The noodle shop owner was very efficient and the food was served quickly.
Since there were not many customers today, and both of them ordered relatively expensive beef offal, the noodle shop owner gave them a plate of vinegar-soaked cucumbers as a gift.
"You really don't charge? I have to ask before I put down my chopsticks. Don't ask me to pay when I check out. That won't work!"
Liu was half surprised and half wary, so she grabbed the boss and asked him face to face.
Yang Ruoqing wished she could bury her face in the bowl of fried noodles in front of her, it would be so embarrassing.
The boss didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Don't worry, this is for free for you to eat, and you won't charge a penny from it!"
In this way, Mrs. Liu put her heart back in her stomach, thanked her a few times, and quickly raised her chopsticks to enjoy the food.
After eating and drinking, Mrs. Liu went over to pay the bill, and the two sat in the noodle shop for a while.
During this process, the noodle shop owner's child happened to be making a fuss about eating watermelon, so Liu quickly went over and grabbed two pieces of watermelon.
Yang Ruoqing:......
If I had known earlier, I would have taken her to Tianxianglou for dinner. This is not embarrassing, it is embarrassing!
Finally, Yang Huazhong and the others got on the carriage.
Yang Huaming was worried about Ms. Liu, so he squeezed into their carriage and asked Ms. Liu, "How are you doing? What did the doctor say?"
Mrs. Liu looked at Yang Huaming's caring face and felt happy in her heart. The invisible tail behind her buttocks had already risen to the sky.
But she also said some unpleasant words, "The doctor said that my illness is caused by physical weakness. He told me to eat more good food when I come back. I can't be reluctant to eat!"
Yang Huaming's face was full of surprise. He looked at Liu's increasingly plump waist and double chin, and the straight man's language blurted out: "You have been getting thicker day by day in the past two months. In your dreams, you are like garlic and white meat." Taste, why is it still weak?"
"Fuck you, you're just mincing garlic and white meat. Do you think your snoring smells good? It's like I'm sleeping in the toilet, it stinks to death!"
In one sentence, Yang Huaming's flame of concern was extinguished.
"Okay, you're so skillful, I didn't ask you anything!"
Yang Huaming gritted his teeth and exited the carriage.
Yang Ruoqing smiled at the side: "Don't worry, Fourth Uncle, there is nothing wrong with my Fourth Aunt, she just got smoked in the mourning hall."
Yang Huaming was stunned for a moment. Previously, the men did not go to the coffin behind the white banner, they just burned a stick of incense in front and came out.
