Parents are critically ill and children can't stay away. It is called "death" to inform the children outside to go home and gather in front of the bed to listen to their fate. "When people are dying, their words are also good", not to mention the elders and family members of their closest relatives. This kind of dying entrustment is particularly precious. Some people borrowed money from the old man before his death, so they quickly paid back the account and made it clear to the old man. When the dying elderly get money, they often secretly give it to the full-fledged children or full-fledged women who have the most difficult life. This is called "My parents are the most miserable and useless children". Generally, the funeral is completely explained, and the relatives who go out farthest finally come back. The old man just shook hands and really left. The villagers are concerned about the death of their parents. Old people are most afraid of dying when they have no relatives around them. Parents are dead, and children are the happiest around. If the immediate family members deliberately do not attend the funeral, it is considered "unfilial". Don't die in a wing or a wing at the end of your life. People think that dying in the main room is also a blessing, that is, natural death. There is a folk custom that children and grandchildren hold the old man to their chest. The time when the old man dies is taboo on "mourning day" and "when he dies". "Heavy mourning", that is, the old man is born and dies. After the old man dies, one person in the family or neighborhood will die. As the saying goes, "a fair death honors the whole life, and people will die for a hundred days." When committing a heavy funeral, look at the coffin with a mirror during the funeral, which means two coffins. The deceased was "empty" for sixty years. In order to avoid misfortune, the people often give the dying old people ginseng or American ginseng soup, and constantly call for the dead, commonly known as "hanging gas." In order to determine whether the deceased has stopped breathing, a pinch of cotton is often placed on the nose and mouth of the dying person to check whether he is still breathing. If cotton stops beating, it can be called a chess piece. After the old man died, there was a folk custom to let the old people in the neighborhood know that they were dead. The so-called spear is not a bird spear, but a "three-eye large-caliber short gun" equivalent to a salute. One end of the spear is a wooden handle, and the other end is an iron spear tube with serrated holes. When in use, nitrate, loess and a fuse are embedded in the eye to discharge it into the sky. Relatives and friends automatically help deal with bad news. As the saying goes, "people die and eat, and they come uninvited." Relatives burn three catties and six taels of paper money in front of the bed, which is called "burning gas money". We also have to burn paper-wrapped sedan chairs and bearers, which is called "burning sedan chairs". We send pillows, straws and cigarette cases from the hospital bed to the intersection in the village for burning. The cigarette case is a cylindrical handle made of straw, as thick as a bowl. According to the age of the deceased, how many iron rings were tied with straw.
I believe everyone is familiar with the old saying, raising children to prevent old age. This "anti-aging" refers to supporting the elderly and dying, so why should future generations die for the elderly? Besides filial piety, what's the point?
The death of children is the filial piety of children and the good death of the elderly. People have not lived in this world for a long time. When they leave, there are always some people who miss it, and some people take a last look after death!
