Oliver was enraged by the insults

Enraged by his brother Noah's insults, Oliver rose up in self-defense, and Noah was in a hurry. The one-month probationary period passed and Oliver officially became an apprentice. This coincided with the great season of the epidemic of the disease, and the cliché of the business was that the price of coffins was bullish. So in the space of a few weeks, Oliver gained a wealth of experience, and Mr. Salbury's ingenious idea worked out even more than his most optimistic expectations. The town's oldest residents remember a time when measles was so rampant and seriously threatening the lives of children. Little Oliver put on a black hat belt that dragged down to his knees and led many funeral teams, and Oliver also followed his master to most of the funeral activities for adults, in order to operate the composure and adaptability that a good funeral undertaker should have. He had many opportunities to observe that the obedience and fortitude shown by certain strong-willed people in the face of trials and mourning were truly enviable.

For example, Salbury receives an order to hold a funeral for a wealthy old lady or old gentleman. They had hordes of nieces and nieces and nieces, who were so sad when the deceased fell ill and lost their minds completely even in public, but behind their backs they were overjoyed—as if nothing had happened to bother them at all. Husbands often endure the pain of losing their wives and show heroic calmness; while wives, although they wear mourning clothes for their husbands, they are not sad in the slightest, but are determined to wear the mourning clothes as appropriately as possible and add more rhyme. It can also be seen that some bad gentlemen and wives are extremely distressed at the funeral, and as soon as they arrive at home, they immediately recover, and the tea is calm and calm before they are finished. Observing all this is quite pleasant and instructive. Oliver saw it all with great admiration.
