Chapter 1952: Someone Passed Away

After chatting about the Tonghe Club, Zhang Shenghui looked at Zhou Andong again.

"I say Old Zhou, you are ruthless enough, offering a reward of one million to get rid of Zhang Jingkuan."

Zhou Andong was eating, and said vaguely, "A clown who doesn't know his own strength dares to run over and step on me. If I don't flip him over, in the future, anyone will dare to ride on my head and poop and pee."

"That's true!" Zhang Shenghui nodded. "For this kind of thing, others are afraid to avoid it, but he rushed up. If we don't get rid of him, he will definitely be a trouble in the future."

Wu Hongkang asked curiously, "To what extent is Kong Xingzhong's case? That guy is retiring in prison, right?"

"Retiring, he has no chance." The case is still under investigation and needs to be kept secret, so Zhou Andong didn't say much. "I have already prepared a bottle of Jiang Xiaobai for him, because peanuts and white liquor go better together."

Wu Hongkang was stunned. "So serious?"

"That's quite serious." Zhou Andong sneered. "Let's put it this way, when Kong Xingzhong's case is handled, a string will be tied behind it."

Not only Wu Hongkang, but even Zhang Shenghui gasped. They really didn't expect Kong Xingzhong's case to be so serious.

"Wait!" Zhou Andong leaned back and took a sip of his wine glass. "Before the end of the year, the performance of the crematorium will increase a lot."

Seeing Jian Qiu said softly, "Next Monday, Fan Mingyuan's case will be in court. I guess he won't be able to wait until the end of the year."

"Who is Fan Mingyuan?" Zhang Shenghui didn't know and asked suspiciously.

Wu Hongkang didn't know either and looked at Seeing Jian Qiu.

"The Fan family!"

Seeing Jian Qiu only said two words, and Zhang Shenghui and Wu Hongkang understood. It should be the case in Ganzhou.

Zhou Andong chatted with them for a while. Because of Seeing Jian Qiu, this drinking session didn't last long and broke up before 9 o'clock.

Arriving home, Su Su had already slept with her grandmother, and only Old Four was watching TV with wide eyes.

"Old Four, what time is it and you're still not sleeping? You have school tomorrow."

Old Four quickly turned off the TV and said with a smile, "I'm worried about you and sister-in-law. I can only sleep peacefully after you come back."

Saying this, the little girl waved her hand and ran upstairs. "Good night."

Zhou Andong shook his head helplessly, helped Seeing Jian Qiu upstairs, then took a shower and went to bed.

The next day, before 7 o'clock, the phone on the bedside table rang.

Zhou Andong reached out and fumbled for the phone in a daze.

"Hello!"

"Chairman!" Liu Qingjun's excited voice came from the receiver. "The military investigation team has left, just left."

"Just this little thing?" Zhou Andong still didn't open his eyes. "Okay, I know."

"Clack!" Zhou Andong put the receiver on the phone very accurately, and then continued to sleep.

When he woke up completely, it was almost 10 o'clock, and he faintly heard the sound of funeral music.

This made him stunned for a moment, suspecting he heard it wrong. He yawned and walked to the window, pushing it open.

The funeral music came clearly. It should be that someone nearby had passed away.

Zhou Andong washed up and came to the restaurant. The nanny brought up the breakfast that had been kept in the pot and was still warm.

"Sister Wu, do you know whose family passed away?"

"I know!" Sister Wu nodded. "Old Liu in the front hutong, the one who is not tall, chubby, and greets everyone with a smile."

"I know." Zhou Andong swallowed what was in his mouth and lowered his head to take a sip of porridge. "Yesterday morning when I went out, I still saw him sitting under the willow tree at the entrance of his hutong chatting with people. How could it be so sudden that he left?"

"Who said it wasn't." Sister Wu sighed. "Went out for a walk this morning, and when I came back, he fell down under that willow tree and never got up again."

Zhou Andong continued to ask, "Wasn't it discovered at the time? Wasn't he sent to the hospital?"

"Auntie Ma from the neighborhood committee saw it." Sister Wu said. "Notified the two sons, hurriedly sent the person to the hospital, and brought him back in less than an hour. The funeral music has been ringing for less than ten minutes."

Zhou Andong also sighed. "What a good person, he left just like that."

"Exactly!" Sister Wu looked regretful. "Today is his 60th birthday. His daughter came, crying heartbreakingly, and said she bought a cake for her father's birthday. This is good, the birthday has become the death anniversary."

Zhou Andong ate a few bites simply, came out of the restaurant, and saw Seeing Jian Qiu coming in from outside.

"Are you finished?"

Zhou Andong nodded. "I'll go to the front to see if there's anything I can help with. After all, we are neighbors. If I can lend a hand, I will."

"Go!" Seeing Jian Qiu straightened Zhou Andong's collar. "Wreaths are all placed on the side of the road. Tonight, Su Su, Old Four, and I will go to the No. 6 Courtyard to live. We won't be back for these two days."

"Okay!"

Zhou Andong didn't object. Old Four was fine, that girl was bold and afraid of nothing.

But Su Su was small. Although she didn't understand things yet, it was better to avoid some things.

Zhou Andong went out, Wang Wentian followed him, and the two went out of the hutong entrance and saw many wreaths placed under the willow tree not far away.

"This person, really don't know when, suddenly passed away."

Zhou Andong took out a cigarette and lit it, saying as he walked.

Wang Wentian also said with great emotion. "My uncle was in this situation, in his fifties, and rural areas all have dry toilets. When he went to the toilet, he died in the corner of the toilet wall.

How to say, my uncle, besides having a hot temper, didn't do anything bad, but actually died in the toilet. Fortunately, he didn't fall into the manure pit, which can be considered as letting himself leave cleanly."

The two chatted and came to the hutong entrance of Old Liu's house. The third one was it. The whole hutong was full of people.

There were those wearing hemp and filial piety, neighbors helping, and those standing there watching the fun.

"Zhou Andong is here!"

Someone shouted, and everyone looked over.

A middle-aged man wearing heavy filial piety walked over quickly.

"Chairman Zhou, why are you here."

Zhou Andong knew the middle-aged man, it was Old Liu's eldest son, Liu Guanglu.

"Old Liu left so suddenly, I happened to be at home, how could I not come over to see."

Zhou Andong shook hands with Liu Guanglu and comforted him.

"Brother Liu, please mourn, if there is anything I can help with, tell me, don't be polite."

"Boss Zhou!"

"Chairman Zhou!"

"Boss Zhou!"

"..."

Those who knew Zhou Andong greeted him one after another. Zhou Andong nodded in response, and then entered the courtyard.

Old Liu's house is a courtyard. Usually, the old man and the old lady live in the east wing.

But the old man is an elder, and the remains must be placed in the middle of the main room.

If the old man still has elders, then it must be placed in the side room, which is called small encoffining.

After all, it is the 90s, especially at the root of the imperial city, and folk funerals are still very particular.

Zhou Andong and Wang Wentian entered the room and bowed three times to the old man.

After coming out, Liu's second son, Liu Guangqu, came in from outside and greeted Zhou Andong hurriedly.

"Chairman Zhou, you are so busy, why did you come over."

Liu Guangqu took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit one for Zhou Andong and Wang Wentian, and lit it for them with a lighter.

"Okay!" Zhou Andong said. "You two brothers don't worry about me, a bunch of things are waiting for you, go get busy."

"Good!"

They didn't be polite to Zhou Andong, and they really didn't have free time. The old man just passed away, and many things need to be arranged, especially finding a chef, borrowing things, they can't let relatives, friends, and neighbors all go home to eat.

At this time, Auntie Ma from the neighborhood committee came, first explained something to the Liu Guanglu brothers, and then came to Zhou Andong's side.

"Chairman Zhou, you are here too."

Zhou Andong got up and gave Auntie Ma a seat. "Auntie Ma, sit down, tell me, what happened to Old Liu, why did he leave just like that."

"Sigh!" Auntie Ma sighed and didn't sit down. "In the morning, I went out to buy breakfast and walked opposite Old Liu, and he greeted me.

I hadn't walked a few meters away when I heard a thud behind me. Looking back, Old Liu fell to the ground. I hurried back, and when I looked, he was already breathless, but there was still a little pulse.

I hurriedly notified Guanglu and Guangqu, and called neighbors to help them send Old Liu to the hospital. When I got there, it didn't work, the pupils were scattered, symbolic rescue for a while, and then brought back."

In later generations, there are too many people who die suddenly like this, and they are getting younger and younger.

But in this era, it can't be said that there are none, but it is really rare. ===== CHAPTER 1953 =====
