A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Chapter 89: My cousin is so filial, why not kneel down for 3 days and 3 nights?

At the foot of the west wall of the outer courtyard, two corpses, one large and one small, were placed on mats on the ground, covered with white cloth.

Su Qingyu stood ten meters away from the body, watching intently with an expressionless face.

The butler's voice came from behind, "Hello, Master Shen, hello, Miss Cousin."

Su Qingyu turned around and saw Shen Zhao and Cheng Rujin, both dressed in plain clothes, walking towards this side.

Ever since Shen Zhao was scolded and beaten fifty times by Shen Zhixiu in Ruyi Tower last time, Su Qingyu had not seen him again.

I didn't expect that he would accompany Cheng Rujin today. It seems that Cheng Rujin has completely won over Shen Zhao, otherwise, with his status, he shouldn't accompany his concubine to attend the funeral.

"You two are here, let's kowtow to each other." Su Qingyu said lightly.

Cheng Rujin walked forward and knelt beside the corpse, then lay beside Gu Ruoyun and burst into tears.

A maid came over with some money for incense candles and paper, and placed them briefly above the heads of the two corpses.

This funeral was even simpler than that of a villager. If this were placed on the roadside, some people would probably believe Cheng Rujin if he sold himself to bury his mother.

"Didn't you say there was going to be a big funeral ceremony? Is this how the Su family did it?" Shen Zhao suddenly said coldly.

From the moment he entered, his eyes fell on Su Qingyu's cold red figure.

Love and hate intertwined, that was probably Shen Zhao's current mood. Of course, hate far outweighed love. Even if he loved, it wasn't true love, only the obsessive desire to possess.

The question just now was not to support Cheng Rujin, but just to find some sense of presence in Su Qingyu.

Cheng Rujin heard Shen Zhao's question and stood up with the help of the maid.

Shen Zhao was willing to accompany her and make the decision for her, which suddenly made her feel more at ease.

Cheng Rujin also looked at Su Qingyu and asked, "Is the family not ready yet?"

She already knew the rumors in the capital. Since entering the mansion, she didn't even dare to ask how her mother and brother died.

Just now, people from the Su family went to notify her to come back for the funeral and said they would hold a grand funeral. She let out a long sigh of relief. By doing this, the Su family could at least save her mother's last bit of dignity.

If her mother passes away decently, her life in the Shen family will be much easier.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to seek justice for her mother. The dead are gone, and she always has to make some plans for herself.

Su Qingyu said calmly: "It is impossible for the Su family to give Mrs. Yun a grand burial if she commits such a scandal."

Cheng Rujin's red and swollen eyes were filled with anger, "Didn't I say before that we were going to have a big funeral ceremony? Did you hinder it?"

The corners of Su Qingyu's mouth raised a slight arc, and the bright red cloak wrapped around her body was cool and bright.

"A big funeral ceremony? How big does my cousin want to do?"

Cheng Ruijin frowned and said, "The proper ceremony must be performed, and the mourning hall must be decorated. In addition, all the close relatives and old friends should come to see us off. We must also invite a high monk to pray for the soul of the deceased. These cannot be omitted."

In Cheng Rujin's view, even if her mother had done something scandalous, the Su family should not care about a dead person because of their dignity.

Su Qingyu almost laughed out loud, how could Cheng Rujin have the nerve to ask her.

"What my cousin said...isn't possible."

"But I know my cousin has always been filial. I have asked someone to ask the master before. There is a way to let Madam Yun go to the paradise as soon as possible and not suffer the retribution of hell."

Cheng Rujin looked at Su Qingyu in confusion, "What can I do?"

Su Qingyu's bright red dress made Cheng feel as uncomfortable as a brocade cone gnawing at her heart. She looked away unconsciously, not wanting to look at Su Qingyu.

"Master said that as long as close relatives can kneel in front of the soul for three days and three nights, the Buddha will be inspired and Mrs. Jieyun will go to the Paradise of Paradise." Su Qingyu said loudly.

After finishing speaking, he added, "My cousin is famous for her filial piety. Let alone three days, even if I ask you to kneel and die in front of the soul, you will never say a word no. Right?"

Cheng Rujin bit her lip and looked at Su Qingyu. These two words made her freeze.

It was only mid-February, and although the weather had warmed up a bit, it was still freezing cold at night. If I knelt like this for three days, I would probably freeze to death at night, not to mention whether my body could bear it.

But Su Qingyu's words left her no room to refute.

As long as she refuses Su Qingyu's proposal now, she will soon become what the world calls an unfilial daughter.

She froze there, unable to say no.

Cheng Rujin turned to look at Shen Zhao, hoping that Shen Zhao could say a few words. But Shen Zhao's eyes fell on Su Qingyu, with a complicated and deep expression.

Cheng Ruijin was filled with resentment, and under Su Qingyu's presumptuous gaze, she slowly knelt down.

The ball mats on the ground were very thin, and there was no difference between kneeling on the ground and kneeling on the bluestone.

After just a few breaths, Cheng Ruijin felt a sharp pain in his knees. In addition, he knelt there motionless, and the cold wind blew on his body, and the chill penetrated directly into his bones.

Su Qingyu stood on the side and watched coldly. If Cheng Rujin really knelt and died here to keep vigil, she would definitely order a good coffin for her.

Shen Zhao next to him didn't move at all, not even saying anything to stop him. He didn't even give Cheng Rujin a concerned look.

He just stared at Su Qingyu with evil eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. If you look carefully, you can see the possessiveness and obscure emotions in his eyes.

Cheng Rujin glanced at Shen Zhao, almost going crazy with jealousy. Didn't he say that he would only hate Su Qingyu from now on? But this look, no matter how you look at it, is paranoid that love cannot be achieved.

Her thoughts changed, and she suddenly held her forehead with one hand and fell to one side.

The maid next to her immediately knelt down to support her and asked in a low voice: "How is my aunt?"

Cheng Rujin's face was pale, and a line of hot tears flowed down the corners of his eyes.

She turned to look at Shen Zhao and said softly: "Brother Shen Zhao, I seem to be pregnant."

Shen Zhao was stunned for a moment, then took two steps forward, squatted down and asked, "When did it happen? Why didn't I know?"

"Haven't you been taking contraceptive pills?"

Ever since Cheng Rujin's last miscarriage, Mrs. Shen had ordered someone to deliver anti-pregnancy medicine, and she had to drink it every day.

The old lady made it very clear that the concubine was not allowed to get pregnant again before the main wife came in.

So when Cheng Rujin said she was pregnant, Shen Zhao's first reaction was that he was mistaken.

Cheng Rujin pursed her lips and said, "I thought it tasted bad, so I didn't drink it these two times."

Shen Zhao frowned, but after all, he was his own flesh and blood. He then looked at Su Qingyu and said thoughtfully: "It's better to let her go back to Shen's house to chant sutras and pray. It's the same thing."

Su Qingyu felt suspicious in her heart. The medicine she gave Cheng Rujin last time was very strong. It stands to reason that if you take that medicine, you won't be able to get pregnant within a year or two.

Mrs. Shen carefully ordered someone to deliver Bizi Soup, which made the chance of Cheng Rujin getting pregnant even less.

In order not to kneel here, did she come up with such a bad idea on the spur of the moment?

Don't be afraid to lift a rock and smash yourself in the foot.

Seeing that Shen Zhao was still looking at her, Su Qingyu twitched her lips, "Cousin, are you paying filial piety to your cousin with the child in her belly? Then your cousin will definitely reach bliss early."
