Chapter 324: Those Years in the Great Northern Wilderness (16)

The house was registered in his name, and Yun Tinglan and others covered his father's medical expenses, his tuition and living expenses. The only thing he had to do was to provide for Xu Jianmin's family.

Everyone said, "This is a very open and aboveboard thing."

When someone dies, the death must be announced. Old friends must be notified, and those who had a good relationship with the couple must also be told. Many people with whom they have an average or even no relationship will also come when they hear the news.

Even if people come, you can't chase them away.

Just one thing: you can pay your respects, but I won’t accept any gifts, not even a penny.

Upon receiving the news of the death, Chief of Staff He was furious. "Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! Hold those responsible accountable in the name of the Military Commission. No matter how much resistance there is, we must investigate. We must not let people down."

Song Jinhan also repeatedly emphasized to others that the case should be handled impartially and in accordance with the law, and that the judgment and handling of the case should not be interfered with by some human factors. The message he conveyed was that as long as the real murderer was found, no scapegoats would be accepted, and the innocent must not be implicated.

The Jin family was a relative by marriage, and upon hearing the news of the death, the couple asked for leave and rushed over. All the old members of Yanwo Island, whether they had been transferred or not, came.

Yun Tinglan was very busy, but she was actually more tired. For close relatives, she could ask Yining to take Jin Yue to receive them, but for more occasions, she and Song Jinhan had to show up in person.

For example, the county committee members were paying tribute to the deceased, but it was also for Xu Jianmin's case. To be honest, this matter was clear, but the implications were... those who understand would understand.

Other departments also sent wreaths on behalf of their units.

These people have no relationship with Yun Tinglan and Song Jinhan at all, so what are they targeting?

The position under Song Jinhan’s buttocks.

God of Wealth, you are right in front of you, why don’t you come over quickly? The reasons are already there.

Song Jinhan couldn't avoid meeting these people, but he had to consider how to choose the topics, how to talk about them, what he could say and what he couldn't say.

When one is in his position, his every word and action represents more than just himself. Any casual remark can easily be over-interpreted, so he must be careful with what he says and does.

So yo, I’m so tired.

On the day of the burial, Yi An did not show up. Yun Tinglan saw Jin Chengdong and Song Jinhan whispering something, and Song Jinhan just said "hmm" lightly to indicate that he understood.

It was not until the evening that Yun Tinglan learned that Yi'an had gone to the front line again.

Yes, calculating the time, now is the period of the Two Mountains rotation war, and the military region where Yi An is located is on the first front line, so going to the front line is inevitable. Logically, the military hospital must transfer doctors to the front line, and she should have received the news.

Needless to say, they must have known that she was dealing with the funeral and couldn't spare the time, so they didn't notify her. After all, the Chinese Medicine Hospital also sent representatives to pay tribute, so there was no possibility that they couldn't find anyone.

I can only say that she was automatically excluded.

In fact, Yun Tinglan really couldn't get away.

As soon as they had dealt with Xu Jianmin's funeral, they prepared to return to Beijing, but they were harassed by someone before they boarded the plane.

Who? The family of Xu Jianmin’s late wife.

Why? He wanted to exchange Lingxi's burial with Xu Jianmin a hundred years later for some benefits.

It's not worth making Yun Tinglan angry and losing face.

She smiled and declined, "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, it will be fine for everyone to go their separate ways in the future. My aunt will be buried in the Yun family's ancestral tomb a hundred years from now, so there's no need to make things difficult for me, uncles and aunts." She politely sent the man away.

Thanks to the scene they caused, she had a legitimate reason to refuse joint burial in the future. Yun Tinglan didn't want to experience the various rules and funeral customs of the Xu clan for a second time.

She is trying to escape death but still makes a big fuss about it. She must have nothing better to do than to ask for trouble.

A few days later, the verdict for Zhang Qiang and his family came down. Zhang Qiang was forcibly sent to a mental hospital, and the Zhang couple were sentenced to death.

Yun Tinglan was stunned, and then looked at the specific file. There were more than ten pages of various charges. Zhang Qiang was a worthless person, and his father, the mayor, was even less of a worthless person. He had harmed thirteen girls with their names.

Three of them were ruined by him, and he was nicknamed "Zhang the Tiger" because he was so cruel that he could eat people without leaving any bones. When they heard that the Zhang family had fallen, the victims came forward to identify him.

Really, Yun Tinglan felt that it would not be too much to shoot them ten times. Nine lives in total, if we count the three baby girls drowned by Zhang Qiang's mother, that would be twelve lives.

As for the transfer of the county party committee, she just glanced at it. Zhang Qiang's cousin was also among those under double supervision, so she didn't care about it afterwards.

Yun Tinglan gave all the compensation to Xu Canyang's family.

It is still different when a person is suddenly missing, but the dead are gone and the living must always look forward.

Originally, Yining was about to graduate, and the two families had been discussing the marriage. Now... Yining would naturally have to observe three years of mourning for Xu Jianmin, and the wedding would have to wait until four years later.

But in fact, Yining's dowry is still being prepared.

Taking time factors into consideration, Yining and Jin Yue chose wedding gowns. Now, Yining naturally prefers Chinese wedding dresses. A real phoenix coronet and bridal veil is too ostentatious, but cheongsams are acceptable.

In recent years, embroidery has become popular again, unlike in the 1960s and 1970s. It takes 13 months to make a pure handmade Suzhou embroidery wedding dress, not to mention more than one.

There are four sets of wedding dresses, one for each occasion.

Of course, the real phoenix crown and bridal robe are also indispensable. They are not suitable for wearing, but can be collected and passed down from generation to generation.

The floating brocade, washing flower brocade and jacquard silk treasured in Yun Tinglan's space finally saw the light of day again. Of course, they had to be taken out by Lingxi, and then a few embroidery masters were found in Hong Kong Island to help make wedding gowns and auspicious clothes.

Yining and Jin Yue should go to work. The wedding matters are handled by the elders in the family, so they are the two who have the most free time.

As for the dowry jewelry, Yun Tinglan meant to choose two sets of head ornaments from the collections in the space.

These are the treasures that Song Jinhan collected in the last hour and space with the help of the Huo family, a wealthy and aristocratic family. Each one is priceless, let alone a whole set.

Song Jinhan disagreed and just said, "I'll prepare some for Yining, you keep those."

In fact, Yun Tinglan was reluctant to do so. Each piece of jewelry was selected or designed for her by Song Jinhan himself, and each piece represented a part of their past.

Thinking of that time, she couldn't help but smile at how scared Assistant Liu was by the two of them, one man and one ghost.

The past is still vivid in my mind, but things and people are no longer the same.

Time passed by inadvertently. When Yi'an appeared in front of Yun Tinglan with a stubble on his face and a scar at the corner of his eye, Yining's wedding date was approaching again.

Yi An patted his sister who was crying with joy and said, "You're about to get married, why are you becoming more and more spoiled?" However, the look he gave to Jin Siyue became much gentler, which showed that his sister was living a happy life.

Yi Ning chuckled and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "How dare you say that? You've been gone for five years, my aunt..." Yi An's eyes dimmed. Even though he was used to seeing life and death on the battlefield, the fact that he was unable to attend the funeral of his loved ones was a knot in his heart that he would never be able to get over.

Yining knew that he had said something wrong, so he quickly took him to see the wedding dress and dowry, "Our mother has also prepared a set for our future sister-in-law. When will you let our mother hold her grandson?"

Girl, our mom hasn't urged you to get married yet, but you're already worrying about me. You have finally grown up and entered the mortal world. It's no longer just about poetry and distant places, but you've also started to worry about the trivialities of worldly affairs.

Yi An took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, took a big gulp, subconsciously opened a few more bottles and put them aside, then leaned back on the sofa and basked in the sun.

Accustomed to the sound of gunfire, the laughter and joy at home always seemed ethereal. This familiar yet strange feeling made him feel as if he was in another world and at a loss.

In a daze, he heard his sister exclaim, "Mom, you have white hair?" His mother scolded his sister, "What a fuss! Your mother is already fifty years old, how can she not have white hair?"

Yi'an's return seemed to accelerate time, and the wedding date arrived in the blink of an eye.

The twenty-ninth day of the seventh lunar month is auspicious and suitable for getting married.

The wedding was held in a hotel owned by the Yun family.

There was no banquet, no gifts were accepted, it was as serious as a tea party.

He Yingxue, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Qi family, secretly curled her lips, but she was secretly happy in her heart. Ever since she knew Yining's family background, she had been feeling uncomfortable.

Being a sister-in-law to such a prominent young lady, she felt a lot of pressure. If she gave in, she would lose face as the eldest sister-in-law. If she didn't give in, the two of them would have a conflict and people would laugh at her. She was even more worried that her snobbish mother-in-law would take sides.

Now it seems that it is nothing more than that.

As the old saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Her sister-in-law frowned in disdain, "It's popular to wear wedding dresses and take wedding photos nowadays. Who still wears cheongsam? It's tacky!" She shook her head and said, "He's an official to this extent, but he doesn't even dare to hold a grand wedding for his daughter. What's the point?"

If I had known earlier I wouldn't have come.

Who said no.

Seeing He Yingxue nodding in agreement, Qi Yuan almost bit her teeth off, but she forced herself not to frown because she thought that today was her youngest son's wedding day and she couldn't bring bad luck.

Quite a few people heard these ignorant words, but of course they were very well-mannered and just glanced at them casually, not bothering to pay any attention to them.

Do you know how rare the tea you drink is? The national drink, the mother tree Da Hong Pao, if you don’t have the status, you can’t drink it even if you have money!

Complaining about the pain and thinking it’s not worth the money?

You know, just this small cup is equivalent to a table full of delicious food!

As for these pastries, they must have been prepared by state banquet masters and national treasure-level cooking masters. How many people have such face that they would allow them to prepare them personally?

Do you know how many people have been waiting for this invitation? Do you know how many big shots are here today? Do you know who wrote the calligraphy on those paintings?

Everyone present here... is a person who can make the people below tremble when he stomps his feet. If you can take the opportunity to make friends with one or two of them, it would be a real blessing.
