A lifetime of regrets.
Wu Jinna is a post-85 girl, born in a well-off family in Shanghai, as the only daughter in the family, Wu Jinna has been pampered by the whole family since she was a child, no matter what she wants, her parents try their best to satisfy her, especially her aunt.
Wu Jinna has a very good relationship with her aunt, because her aunt is beautiful and dresses well, so Wu Jinna likes to stay with her aunt very much, and pesters her aunt to take her out to play every holiday.
Auntie also responds to Wu Jinna's needs, but aunt also has her own principles, when she was a child, her aunt was very indulgent to Wu Jinna, but since Wu Jinna went to junior high school, her grades have plummeted, and her academic performance in primary school can still be among the best, and she began to count down after going to junior high school.
Every time Wu Jinna's parents talk to their daughter and talk about her grades, Wu Jinna is irritable and avoids, never listening to her parents, no way, her parents found Wu Jinna's aunt, because since she was a child, Wu Jinna didn't listen to her parents, but she listened to her aunt very much.
My aunt was entrusted by her sister and brother-in-law, and secondly, she felt that Wu Jinna's grades were really miserable, not to mention that she could go to college with her current grades, and even whether she could go to high school was a problem.
So one day, when my aunt took Wu Jinna out to play, I wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Wu Jinna about her studies, but I never found a good opportunity, and when my aunt was thinking about how to speak, they suddenly met a beggar on the side of the road.
The aunt thought about it for a while, and the method instantly came to her mind.
The aunt specially took Wu Jinna to pass by there, because the aunt knew that Wu Jinna was a very kind child, so she was sure that Wu Jinna would definitely lend a helping hand after seeing the begging person.
Sure enough, after Wu Jinna saw that person, she didn't hesitate to take out her pocket money from her pocket and give it to that person, and when her aunt saw this, she also took out a red Grandpa Mao and gave it to the other party.
Wu Jinna saw that her aunt took out so much, but she only gave 10 yuan, and suddenly felt a little ashamed.
Auntie seemed to see Wu Jinna's thoughts, and enlightened her as she walked, no matter how much money you donate, as long as it is within your ability, you see that you are spending your parents' money now, so you can take out very little, but Auntie is working, so she can take out so much.
And there are many people who are more powerful than my aunt, they have become rich people by relying on their own ability, and they can help more people get out of trouble with a donation, so they come according to their own ability.
After listening to her aunt's words, Wu Jinna followed up and said that she wanted to become a rich person in the future and help more people, and her aunt smiled: "Then how do you want to become a rich person?" ”
Wu Jinna seemed to think of something, and said that she wanted to study hard, be admitted to a good university, find a good job, and achieve financial freedom.
When the aunt heard Wu Jinna's words, she smiled and encouraged: "Then you have to study hard, and the aunt will rely on you in the future." ”
When Wu Jinna heard her aunt's words, she patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry!" ”
In this way, since then, Wu Jinna is no longer idle, but puts more time on studying, Wu Jinna, who is already smart, as long as she studies hard, her grades improve quickly, and she is one of the best in the class in less than two months.
The aunt is very satisfied with Wu Jinna's results, and every time she gets good grades, she gives her a gift, although Wu Jinna has a lot of gifts, but every time the aunt gives a gift that she doesn't have, and it is very novel.
So Wu Jinna looked forward to the exam every time, and then got good grades in the exam, and asked her aunt for a gift, however, an accident later, Wu Jinna had no more gifts to receive.
Once, Wu Jinna got good grades again, and when she returned home, she told her parents that she was going to her aunt's house, but her parents stopped her.
Because Wu Jinna just came back to say that she hadn't changed her shoes yet, and her body was half out, she was suddenly stopped by her parents and was a little puzzled, and when she turned around and saw her parents sitting on the sofa with a dull face, she realized that something should have happened.
So she turned and changed her shoes, went into the house, sat down next to her mother, and asked, "What's wrong?"
The mother looked sideways at her daughter, suddenly her eyes were red, and tears flowed out unconsciously, and the mother told Wu Jinna in a trembling voice that her aunt had a car accident today and died on the spot.
When Wu Jinna heard her mother's words, she was shocked on the spot as if she had been hit by a thunderbolt on a sunny day, she expressed her disbelief and immediately got up to find her aunt, but her mother immediately grabbed her and told her that her aunt was now in the funeral home and was not at home.
Wu Jinna's tears couldn't stop flowing, and she cried loudly: "Then I'll go to the funeral home to find my aunt, I want to see her with my own eyes." ”
The parents finally couldn't resist their daughter and took her to the funeral home, but when the daughter was about to step into the house, the mother reached out and grabbed her daughter and told her that her aunt's car accident was very serious, and her body was already miserable, so she should not see her.
Although Wu Jinna said that no matter what her aunt became, she was not afraid, but her parents finally did not let Wu Jinna see the last side, which also became the regret of Wu Jinna's life.
Become an undertaker.
In the next few days, Wu Jinna has been in the grief of losing her aunt, she often wonders, did she have any regrets when her aunt left, how much she loves beauty, if she was seriously damaged by a car accident, and her aunt did not leave in beautiful clothes, would it be a pity.
Later, by chance, Wu Jinna accidentally saw the profession of mortuary on the Internet, and after a detailed understanding, Wu Jinna immediately made up her mind that she wanted to become such a person, so that more people who love beauty can pass away with dignity.
However, when Wu Jinna told her parents about her idea, she was blocked by her parents, a profession that had to deal with dead people every day, and they wanted their daughter to find a decent job.
Although her parents blocked Wu Jinna, they couldn't control Wu Jinna when she was a child, and now they can't control her.
Wu Jinna said that without her aunt's encouragement, she might not even be able to go to junior high school, and now that her aunt has passed away, she wants to help more people like her aunt leave the world with dignity.
In this way, despite the opposition of her parents and teachers, Wu Jinna finally applied for the civil affairs school in Fujian Province to study funeral and funeral.
In the beginning, the teacher taught them the basics, using dummies, and then, in order to put them into practice, they were exposed to real corpses.
Wu Jinna was also very scared when she first touched the cold corpse, and the other classmates were even more frightened and said that they wanted to change their majors, but Wu Jinna finally carried it, because she knew that if she wanted to study well, she had to work hard to overcome it.
In this way, Wu Jinna followed the teacher's explanation, patiently disposed of the corpse, and as the number of exercises increased, Wu Jinna's techniques became more and more proficient, and the teacher praised her again and again.
Later, Wu Jinna went to Japan for further study as an outstanding student, and in Japan, Wu Jinna came into contact with the "old man's bath", which is to make up and clean the body, so that the deceased can leave more decently.
Wu Jinna was very careful in the learning process, patiently listened to the teacher's explanation, took notes from time to time, and then practiced, Wu Jinna's technique was praised by the teacher.
After returning from school, Wu Jinna became a qualified mortuary in her hometown.
But since her profession became known to those around her, more and more people began to distance themselves from her, and even gatherings between friends never called her anymore.
Disliked by those around him.
Since Wu Jinna took up this profession, her friends began to stay away from her, relatives often talked behind her back, and her parents also felt that it was unseemly and often persuaded her to change careers.
But Wu Jinna loves this cause, she maintains the greatest awe for each body, and deals with it carefully every time, so that the deceased can leave with dignity, she feels that her life has meaning, and her spirit has been sublimated.
It's just that these are not understood by the people around her, sometimes Wu Jinna goes to visit relatives, and the other party doesn't let her in, even if she gives a gift, the other party will throw it out.
Later, Wu Jinna stopped eating closed-door soup, others don't understand it, she doesn't care anymore.
Because Wu Jinna is very in awe of the deceased, and the body in her hands can be repaired most perfectly and restore the appearance of the deceased, so many people are willing to send their deceased relatives to Wu Jinna and let her help deal with it.
According to statistics, there are as many as 5,000 corpses processed by Wu Jinna's hands every year, so Wu Jinna faces all kinds of corpses every day, but she has long since changed from the initial fear to awe.
She hopes to rely on her own strength to let more people leave with dignity and leave no regrets.
Brief summary. Helping the deceased to leave with dignity may not be as good as the doctor's life-saving and healing, but it can soothe the regrets in the hearts of the deceased, isn't it the value of the mortuary?
Now, Wu Jinna has set up her own funeral team, not only has a successful career, but also has not fallen in love, she met a husband who understands her, and the two live happily after marriage.
Later, they also had a lovely child, from a happy family of two to a family of three, I believe that Wu Jinna will continue on this road in the future to help more deceased people leave with dignity.
