I sat at the head of the bed, looking at granny Dong's sleeping face, listening to the long sound of the precise instrument.

I sat numbly, tears seemed to flow out of the same sitting.

Doctors and nurses came over. They said to me that grandma Dong had passed away. They said that they would arrest her body. They asked me if I had contacted the funeral home.

Later, they stopped talking.

They didn't move granny Dong, who was held tightly by me, and they left the ward.

Then the old neighbor came.

He broke me off. He said to me that people should have their own places when they are dead. He said, don't delay your grandmother. He said, you promised that you would send grandma Dong to die.

I let go of Granny Dong. I sat in the chair and watched the nurses come in again.

They wrapped up grandma Dong with a white cloth sheet, put her on the cart, and pushed her out of the ward.

I followed them all the way to the lowest morgue.

I watched them send granny Dong into the cold cupboard.

I didn't know how long I stood in front of the cupboard, and when the nurse reminded me again to contact the funeral home, I walked out of the morgue.

It was still dark. I looked up at the sky from the flat in front of the hospital building. I could see the faint light in the sky. I walked back to our home.

I took out the iron box that grandma dong put on the head of the bed.

There's 100000 cash in it, the graveyard contract she bought, and the contact number of the funeral parlor that she has already contacted.

I looked at those things, and I thought that grandma Dong would explain to me the use of the things in the box after explaining the old things.

I hugged the box and cried.

At 7:30, I called Wu Gang three times to wake him up. I asked him to ask for leave for me. I said that I had a family member dead, and I had to deal with the aftermath. I said that cruise's goods had been shipped out, and I could continue the work after I got back to the office.

Then, I hung up without waiting for Wu Gang to speak.

I called the undertaker again and made an appointment to meet him at the hospital at ten o'clock.

I found out the shroud that Granny Dong prepared for myself, and put it into the backpack together with the box. I went to the hospital with the backpack on my back.

I went to the hospital to get the death certificate and check out the hospital.

I was very calm, not even a drop of tears, went through those procedures.

Then, I followed the car of the funeral parlor to the funeral home that grandma Dong had arranged for a long time.

I gave grandma Dong's shroud to the staff of the funeral parlor. Together with them, I changed grandma Dong's shroud.

People in the funeral parlor said that grandma Dong had agreed that she would be cremated when she was delivered. They asked me if I would still follow this principle, or if I would set up a funeral hall and hold a memorial service before cremation?

I said, set up a memorial hall and hold a memorial service.

I paid for it, chose one of the most ceremonious Memorial packages, and bought a jade urn.

After I set the time, I went to the cemetery next to me. Grandma Dong not only bought the cemetery, but also buried her husband's ashes after buying the cemetery. The tombstones have been erected and the flowers and plants in the cemetery have been planted. Only the name of Granny Dong on the tombstone has not been described in gold. I just need to set a time with them, and then ask them to send her husband's ashes After describing the name, we will ask a good man to be buried.

Then I went back to Yueyang Road.

My family knocked on the door, hoping that they would attend grandma Dong's memorial service.

I told them that they didn't need to send anything, but just went to give granny Dong a trip so that she could go in a hurry.

After notifying the neighbors, I went to the place where funeral supplies were sold. I bought some gifts that would be returned if they went to attend the memorial service.

After all this, I went home and went to sleep, and then I woke up hungry.

I got up, cooked a bowl of noodles, fried two poached eggs, wolfed down after eating, went to wash my hair and bath, and then changed into a black suit.

On weekends, if grandma Dong is in a good mood, she will drag me to the streets, point out the clothes in those clothing stores, tell me what kind of clothes are worn by who, what kind of body should be dressed, what kind of age should be how to color matching, what kind of occasions how to wear decent.

And in order to confirm her words, she also led me to buy a lot of new clothes.

(of course, it was my own money)

she chose this set for me. At that time, she also said that this kind of dress was worn at the funeral. It was stable and grand, and it was the best respect for the dead.

I stroked the fabric of the dress and looked at myself in the mirror. I resisted the sour feeling and said to myself that you had promised granny Dong that you would send her away.

After combing my hair, I went out for the first time with light make-up according to grandma Dong's instruction.

Then I went out and took a taxi to the funeral home.

I ordered the most luxurious memorial service. In the largest hall, it was full of flower baskets and wreaths.When the undertaker led me in, they said that even 500 people would not feel crowded here.

I laughed and didn't speak.

I don't know how many people will come.

Granny Dong has no unit, no relatives, and all her friends have passed away. There are not many people who are afraid to come.

However, even if there is no one, I will let granny Dong go in a lively way.

The undertaker asked me if I had prepared a eulogy.

I said no.

The people of the funeral parlor asked again if they would like to use their universal eulogy.

I refused.

I think, no one can evaluate the life of Granny Dong, and she doesn't need to use those hypocritical words to pile them up.

I said, let's have a incense and see the last appearance.

The people in the funeral parlor said yes, and then they brought grandma Dong who had already made up.

Granny Dong sleeps in a beautiful coffin with flowers all around her. She looks peaceful and has a beauty beyond age and death.

I stood by the coffin and looked at her.

It suddenly occurred to me that I had seen her for the first time.

At the end of spring, the rose is in full bloom, and she stands at the door. Although her clothes are old, she is graceful and elegant, with a mellow ring precipitation.

"Gu Qing..."

A call of doubt came from the door.

I turned my head and opened my eyes in surprise.

There were three people standing at the door.

Miss Zhu, Wu Gang, and Chen Han.

It was Chen Han who called me out loud.

"You?" I couldn't believe it.

"Miss Zhu called all the funeral parlors and asked that you have reserved a memorial service here, so..."

In the middle of Wu Gang's speech, he was hit by Miss Zhu's elbow on his stomach.

Then, her face is still indifferent to walk forward, so, with her arms around me.

I held her in my backhand and leaned against her shoulder. Tears began to flow down.

I choked and said, "thank you."

"Silly girl!" Miss Zhu patted me on the back and whispered again, "silly girl..."

That day, Miss Zhu accompanied me to stand in front of the coffin, to the people who came back.

Wu Gang and Chen Han stood at the door.

On that day, although all the people who came were neighbors, the number of people did not even arrive at 50.

But I think granny Dong will be happy.

On that day, Miss Zhu and Wu Gang and Chen Han accompanied me and sent grandma Dong's urn for burial.

Then, as she left the cemetery, Miss Zhu asked me, where is your mobile phone? Why didn't I answer your call?

I searched through my bag and found that I didn't know when my mobile phone was lost.
