In fact, everyone has already decided to save face for the grandmother, so now start preparing to clean up the yard, set up the mourning hall and then start burning paper money to worship.
The grandmother simply told the boy's father what to do, and then, let the people of the family kneel in front of the mourning hall, telling them to cry when they should cry.
I used to see it when I was in my hometown, and I didn't understand why before, but then I secretly asked my grandmother, and my grandmother explained to me that it was because the cry of the living person would be heard by the deceased, so that the deceased would know that the family was very sad, and also let suppress the resentment of the deceased, so that it would willingly go to peace.
When my grandmother explained this to me, I had already opened my yin and yang eyes, and once I really saw the person in the photo in the mourning hall, and its soul was really wandering around the mourning hall.
At that time, I told my grandmother alone, and my grandmother whispered to me, don't say anything, don't care, you can see it, others can't see it, and hearing you say this will make everyone afraid, so since then, even if the neighbors have watched me grow up grandfather or grandmother passed away, my grandmother will always take me to mourn, and occasionally I will see the souls of those grandparents.
I still know the importance of this thing, so I can see them, and they can see me, after all, they have watched me grow up, and when they find out that I can actually see them, they just smile at me, and then they just walk around their mourning hall for a while, or they just stand there doing nothing and watch their children cry.
The mourning hall was quickly set up, and the boy's family members all stood on the right side of the mourning hall, and they changed into white plain clothes, but they were not draped in linen, because the deceased was a child, which was regarded as a white-haired person sending a black-haired person.
If the deceased is an elder, the younger generation of the crying spirit is to wear linen and wear filial piety, this kind of rule has been handed down by the older generation, whether it is in the countryside or in the city, you can't just omit the steps, or you can simplify it, that is the biggest disrespect for the deceased, maybe you will really cheat the corpse.
The families of the deceased have already knelt down, we outsiders must be going to worship, everyone walked to the front of the mourning hall and bowed, the family members of the deceased bowed again, and the villagers who watched the excitement before also walked to the front of the mourning hall one after another, bowing respectfully to express their condolences, and no one dared to talk nonsense anymore.
After all, the dead are great, and the living still have to accumulate some virtue for themselves, if they really offend the ghost of the deceased, no one can say what bad things will happen, at that time, they will only be scolded by others, and the mouth is cheap and deserves this person's bad luck.
After the worship, we all sat on the stool next to us and watched the boy's relatives cry sadly, but I suddenly noticed that the boy's sister had been staring at me, and she had not even seen her crying, not even making a sound.
I looked down at myself a little strangely, thinking to myself, "Why does this little girl keep staring at me, is there anything wrong with me?"
