Suffering Becomes Happiness
chapter 31

After a few days later, it was not felt that the 100th anniversary of Faridah's death was also less than two days away. So busyness has been seen in the house of Mr. Hartono, where in the house, especially in the kitchen has shown his busy activities. At that time two neighbors who were hired to help in the house, had started to carry out their work. But even so, the workers who used to work in the house of Mr. Hartono, the artisans who make or who build a rest house or a house where to relax in the backyard of the house, the, keep going as usual. So is Mr. Joko.... Where previously Mr. Joko who did painting the fence starting from the other day, apparently it was done. So the fence of Mr. Hartono's house also feels good to see, because it has been updated by painting. While Mr. Hartono himself had anticipated about anything that would be done ahead of the implementation of the event, including the creation of an invitation letter that will be distributed to his neighbors.

So that morning after he finished breakfast, Mr. Hartono immediately called his wife to discuss the invitation.

Then Mr. Hartono spoke to his wife....

"So, this is it, Mom.!! This how is it.?? The invitation letter was finished, and I had made the invitation letter as many as 500 invitation letters. But my plan of 200 invitations I will share with the orphans in the orphanage Ma'am.!! While the 300 pieces, I will distribute to the neighbors. So a total of all 500 invitations Mom.!! What do you think, Mom.??"

Ask Mr. Hartono to Sumiatun's mother.....

Then Sumiatun's mother answered her husband's question....

"Yes... It's okay, mas.!! But by the way, a lot of our invitations for this time yes mas.!! Compared to yesterday's event, the 40-day anniversary, it's more now that the invitation is a problem. Because it's nothing.... If you want to invite 200 orphans from the orphanage, automatically it will not necessarily be the same event as yesterday mas.!! It's just a recitation of prayers. So according to the mother if we invite the orphan, usually in the event there must be tausiyahya mas.!! And if we have reached that step, then automatically we will invite ustad also other than the previous one.!! What is clear is that later we will ask to give tausiyah to our invitation, especially to the orphans later.!! And so on to who our workers are, whether mas will invite orally or invite in person, or mas will use the invitation letter as well to invite them.!! Because if we invite in person, then our invitation will be more than 500 people mas.!! And also according to Ibu mas, it would be nice if the invitation is 300 people for the neighbor, if it can be extended again to the neighbors next door, or other acquaintances of the community.!! So that's just my input, but.... The decision is in the hands of the.!! How's mas.??"

Ask Sumiatun's mother to her husband.

Hearing the advice of his wife, Mr. Hartono said....

"It's true, ma'am.!! I agree with my mother's advice.!! Aye.!! Later I will invite Mr. Ustad and all tell the Mr. ustad that on the night of the event later, the ustad gave tausiyah.!! And I will tell him also, that I also in this case invited 200 orphans. Regarding the mother's proposal, which is to expand the invitation outside our neighbors, so in my opinion.... I will also send Mas Joko, specifically for the workers and also his daughter-in-law in the next village. And also do not forget to invite the teacher and his wife who contracted the house Mother, he will invite me too.!! But later who gave the invitation letter let Mas Joko only. Oh yes, Mom.!! I almost forgot to tell my mom.... So for the orphans that we invite later, we will treat it specifically.!! That is: in addition to them we feed and also the same parcel as the other invitation, but later at the end of the event I took the initiative to give alms in the form of money, money, which I will put in an envelope, and I will share one by one with the orphans, Mom.!! So what do you think about Mom.??"

Ask Mr. Hartono to his wife.

Then Sumiatun's mother responded to her husband's words....

"Alright mas.... That is very true according to mother, and mother is very supportive about the mas plan.!! So for now you should invite the old man first.!! Fear if the ustadz we do not invite first, although less than two days from now fear he hunted invited people.!! And if for the matter of the orphans themselves, it is also better now to go to the orphanage and immediately meet with the caretaker of the orphanage, to talk about this.!! That's what I think comes first. If for other invitations including for the neighbors and the workers, we can spread them out lately.!! Because even though it's not being spread now, tomorrow there's still time.!! So that's what mom said.!!"

Then Mr. Hartono said....

"Alright Ma.... Then the mas will immediately go to the house of the ustad sir to invite him, then after that the mas will go directly to the orphanage to meet the caretaker first, first, then mas will tell the nanny about the intention of the mas who will invite 200 orphans from the orphanage.!! Then we leave first, Mom.!?

Wipe Mr. Hartono to his wife while stepping out of the house by saying hello....

"Assynolodet.!!"

"Goddessam.!!" Careful.mas.!!"

After the next day, the execution or commemoration of the 100 days of the death of Faridah's mother was getting closer. So Mr. Hartono's family is getting busy, especially in the kitchen.

Where at that time the atmosphere in the kitchen room of Mr. Hartono's house, was very dense with all activities related to the implementation of the warning. Some make cakes" some cut meat and process it" some prepare the parcels" and others. It can be said that at that time the atmosphere at Pak Harto's house was very dense with activity. While the workers behind the house, keep working as usual. Because of the supervision of the worker, handed over entirely by Mr. Hartono to Mr. Joko. While Mr. Joko himself who was busy yesterday with painting the fence, now he is done with his work. So it can be said that Mr. Joko can focus more on watching the workers. As for Mr. Hartono, he was busy with things related to the 100th anniversary of the death of Ms. Farida. While regarding his own invitation to the neighbors, he still has not spread it. Likewise with the workers who by Mr. Hartono will also be invited, Mr. Hartono has not given an invitation to all of them. So for a while the finished invited first by Mr. Hartono is: pak ustad and 200 orphans. So it was immediately discussed by Mr. Hartono with his wife.

Hartono speaking to his wife....

"Well this is how Mom.!! I think the invitation for these neighbors is time we share, as well as the workers. Because considering the time itself, this is already tomorrow night loh bu, the implementation until the time.!! How's Ms.??"

Ask Mr. Hartono to his wife....

Then Sumiatun's mother replied....

"Yes must be mas.!! If not now when else.!? Even tomorrow we will be busier than now.!! So for this, you should call mas Joko first.!! Because if for the invitation of the workers and daughter-in-law of Mas Joko, and also the teacher who rented the mother's house, let Mas Joko alone deliver the invitation.!! So Joko mas we ask to deliver it now only.!!While the mas itself, should now depart to spread the invitation to the neighbors. Because for the neighbors, if not Mr. Hartono who delivered the invitation, then who else.!? If Mas Joko does not know our neighbors.!! Is it not mas.!?

Said Sumiatun's mother to her husband.

Then Mr. Hartono responded to his wife's remarks....

"All right, Mom.!! Right said Mother.!! In that case, mas will call Mas Joko first to tell him to spread this invitation.!!"

Said Mr. Hartono as he stepped out into the backyard of the house, to meet Mr. Joko.

After a while later, Mr. Hartono who was in his backyard at that time, then immediately called Mr. Joko who at that time he was with the workers who were doing his work. Then after Pak Joko was called by Mr. Hartono, then immediately Pak Joko approached Pak Hartono who was sitting on the back porch chair of the house. Then after the two of them sat in the chair, then Mr. Hartono immediately expressed his intention to Mr. Joko.

Mr. Hartono said to Mr. Joko....

"So, this is how you.... I mean call Joko mas here because there is something very important, related to the implementation of the 100th anniversary of the death of Ms Farida, which happens to be the event will take place tomorrow night.!! So I would like to ask Joko for help, to distribute the invitation as it happened yesterday, it was an invitation that I sent to the mas at that time on the 40th anniversary of Farida's mother's death. Now I want to send it back.!! but this time it was different.... To the workers themselves, I was the one who at that time invited directly verbally, but for now I invite them all with an invitation letter.!! And that's not just it.!! And do not forget the mas to deliver the invitation also to the son-in-law of the mas in the opposite village, and also I beg mas Joko so that mas Joko also deliver an invitation letter to the teacher who rented my wife's house mas.!! And for its own implementation or the timing of the distribution of the invitation letter, it should start right now.!! How's mas.??"

Said Mr. Hartono to Mr. Joko....
