Chapter 299: Within Reach

Mei Hongqi's son is almost thirty and has not yet found a wife. After the son who was given to Mei Lijie was tricked back by them, they married him away within a few years.

Received a generous dowry, and the money made their son lose all his money in gambling, so naturally no one wanted to marry him.

...

Mei Lijie and Jiang Hongyong didn't have much face in this city. Except for a few workers on the construction site and their neighbors in the watch factory, the three "filial sons" and "filial daughters" didn't kowtow too much.

When no one was around, the two people behind Jiang Quan stood up from the cushions and sat on the stool beside them to smoke, crack sunflower seeds, and play cards.

These two hypocrites did not shed a single tear, they were still laughing and laughing at the poker table.

Jiang Quan really couldn't figure it out, why hold a funeral that is not sad?

After thinking about it, he made up his mind again that when he died, he would be just like his own mother, without any ceremony, and just be thrown into the river or sea like this.

Mama Mei told him that before her mother died, she said that the vast majority of the world is covered by water, and if she is thrown into the river, it is as if she exists in all the water in the world, and she will be everywhere. Where water exists, it is waiting for the growth of Jiangquan.

Thinking of his mother's words, Jiang Quan cried miserably. The uncle and aunt shook their heads and glanced at the second uncle's son who was fighting fiercely at the poker table.

...

The rule here is to keep vigil for the dead, usually close relatives.

The main task of the vigil is to ensure that the ever-burning lamp placed under the coffin cannot be extinguished. It must be watched from time to time, and when it is almost out of oil, it must be filled with lamp oil.

Uncle had already made arrangements. On the 2nd, there will be a memorial service. On the 3rd, which is Jiang Hongyong’s 60th birthday, he will be cremated early in the morning, go up the mountain, and be buried in the ground.

On the nights of the 1st and 2nd there will be a vigil for him.

Mei Lijie felt sorry for Jiang Quan, saying that Jiang Quan hadn't slept for several days, and he must go back to rest tonight, otherwise he would not be able to survive.

She herself hadn't slept for a few days, and Mei Hongqi told her to go back to rest too.

After discussion, on the night of the 1st, the vigil was arranged for the family of the uncle and the second uncle, and for the family of Jiang Quan, Mei Lijie and Mei Hongqi on the night of the 2nd.

The rest of the Jiang family are not young anymore, they can't keep watch at night, and the younger generation has their own lives, so it is impossible to stay in Xinsha City forever.

Mei Lijie opened a few more rooms near the funeral parlor for the Jiang family who didn't have to watch the night. She took Mei Hongqi and his son back to the watch factory.

Because the standard room near the hospital had already been paid for, and he had to go back to the hospital to complete the discharge procedures and refund the deposit, the educated Jiang Quan took his aunt who was always friendly to Mei Lijie to rest there.

Li Hong's report message is still not late today, but she added, "I wanted to visit you, but I think you don't mind my presence. If you need it, call me."

Jiang Quan also sent a report text message, and added a sentence at the end, "Thank you for your understanding, I know you are sincere, and your sincerity makes me feel guilty. It's not that you are not good enough, but I have problems. You deserve to be better. people."

"Also, can I come to the hotel around 10 o'clock tomorrow morning? I have to pay you back the room fee and deposit for opening the hotel, and the money I paid for treating my friend to dinner last time. I will also pay you back!"

Li Hong replied with two words, "Okay!"

...

Jiangquan queued up at the hospital after 8:00 a.m. on the 2nd. The money to return Li Hong had to be obtained from this window. From this window, a total of more than 50,000 yuan was handed in, and the rescue took only 4 days. There must be some savings.

He didn't dare to ask her to come here too early, because he was afraid that there would be too many people queuing up in the hospital, and it would be bad if it delayed her time.

Li Hong is the gentleness within reach, and Wei Haoran is the stars far away in the sky.

Now he doesn't want anyone!

Jiang Quan received the deposit refunded by the hospital, totaling 8876.4 yuan.

What an interesting number, "Dad is gone. Died"

She sighed, she still underestimated the ICU. In this way, the money saved by Jiang Hongyong's hard work over the years just happened to pay for his own emergency treatment.

Fortunately, there are still relatives and friends, and finally the money is returned to him, at least he won't let Li Hongbai make a trip.

He took the returned money and returned to the hotel.

Auntie woke up too.

Because he had to wait for Li Hong, Jiang Quan chatted with her for a while.

The aunt said that if she hadn't been forced to undergo a sterilization, she would have found a way to give birth to a son. That was indeed the style in the countryside back then.

Because I had no way to give birth, I went to work in the city, and gradually changed my mind. Raising a son is no worse than raising a son.

Her son also went to college, worked in his hometown, got married and had children, and he is many times better than the son of the second uncle's family.

The son of the second uncle's family should be useless.

The second aunt had always been domineering and domineering in the Jiang family because of the birth of a son, and now she is being humiliated by her own son, which is really satisfying!

...

When Li Hong arrived, he called Jiang Quan first.

Jiang Quan left the room, returned the money to her in the corridor, and said to her, "Thank you!"

Finally, I don't have to owe her any more favors!

Li Hong didn't leave after receiving the money, but asked Jiang Quan how to get to the funeral home later, she just came by car and could give him a ride.

The auntie didn't know when she got out and said that she had a good relationship. Last night, she walked a full kilometer from the funeral home before she got a taxi. The taxi driver didn't want to go to the funeral home at all!

Li Hong answered immediately, then I will pick you up at the funeral parlor tonight!

Jiang Quan refused, "No, no, I'm going to watch over there tonight."

The aunt interjected again, "You can't stay here, your aunt and I want to stay. The conditions in this hotel are much better than those near the funeral parlor, and I'm afraid of living there!"

"Yes, and I booked this hotel on my own, and I can stay for one night. If it is so inconvenient for you, I should be responsible for it," Li Hong continued, "It's not good for friends to help each other. Is it normal?"

The aunt immediately reached an agreement with her, "If you want, if you want, this person can handle things. When no one in the world is in trouble, it would be great to have someone to help!"

Jiang Quan had no choice but to get into her car with his aunt.

The aunt was full of curiosity about her, asking all the way, and she was about to pull out all her files.

When they were chatting lively, Pi Xiaoyou called Jiang Quan and asked him if he needed help. If necessary, she would ask Secretary Xiao to help her-there was only three days off for May Day, and she didn't come back.

Wan'er and Xinyi also called him and asked him to take good care of himself.

...

When I arrived at the funeral home, I heard someone arguing.
