His father was dead
I'm in the name of two hundred bucks
Come to the funeral
I don't know who he is
As
He didn't know who I was
Suddenly there was embarrassment in our eyes
He smiled relievedly to ease the strange atmosphere
So I also returned a man-made smile
In fact, the essence of funerals is a kind of socialization
You don't have to be embarrassed by each other
What does the one lying inside the coffin board look like?
Hideous or kind and peaceful?
What did he live for?
Why did he die now?
Is it better to die or to die properly?
Yet all this
I'm not curious
As a passer-by
I was more concerned about the woman with the beautiful figure standing at the gate just now
I'm thinking
A lot of complicated life problems
At the moment when our eyes inadvertently collide
The dog bowl was knocked over by the heels of passers-by who did not have long eyes
The secret work of cat and mouse was interrupted by the pervasive sound of firecrackers
My thoughts were disturbed by her looking back and smiling
Local villagers came to help buy vegetables and make a table
Relatives and friends from out of town flew in to mourn and eat
Local and foreign cats and dogs also jumped up in search of fat and bones
Relatives invited the drama to sing and dance outside the courtyard
Mr. Taoist was also invited to beat gongs and drums in the hall
Only the dead lay silent in the coffin
It's a hilarity that's closely related to the deceased
Because it's all for him
But it was also a hilarity that had nothing to do with him
Because he wouldn't get up for a glass of wine at all
It was a solemn funeral
This allows the actions of loved ones to be recognized
This allowed the death of the deceased to be confirmed
It's an extremely effective form of socializing
It once again clearly defines each person's ethnic identity and status
People took the opportunity to connect with each other's feelings and interactions
Most people commemorate the deceased in the form of liturgy
It's something that everyone can see
Etiquette is the simplest and most direct way to remember
But in some people, it has evolved into the most direct way to accumulate wealth
No one here had sadness on their faces
No one had tears in their eyes
This is not because people see through life and death
Just because the breath of death has nothing to do with itself
It's just a hilarity
Everyone is a passer-by
All funerals are a money-burning ceremony
Including real money and counterfeit money
A funeral is just a ritual
Not to resurrect and regenerate the dead
Burning fake money
Tell the truth
Then there was heaven in Hades
There is hope in the sun
