Someone was sent to call Li Chengshun to discuss the matter urgently.

"If it's left for three days, it'll be really troublesome."

Li Chengshun frowned.

"You should still talk about it again and try to hold the memorial service this afternoon and the cremation in the afternoon."

"I said it, but it doesn't work. The old lady is very stubborn about this matter."

"That's it."

Li Chengshun quickly offered a suggestion.

"Don't we have someone in our organization who is good at disguise? Let her pretend to be a makeup artist and put makeup on the old man to cover it up. She is very skilled and can ensure that when people see the old man's remains, they won't see any signs of poisoning."

"Now it seems that this is the only way to do it."

The Chu family has a prominent status in the capital.

According to the funeral rules of the Chu family, even if the old man had given instructions before his death, everything should be kept simple and the mourning shed should be set up in the yard.

Three days later, the day of burial arrived.

Representatives of relatives from hometowns, various places, and business elites gathered together, and the wreaths brought by people lined up from the front door of the mansion to the street.

All matters were handled by Butler Lu, and all business elites were arranged to live in Jinyuan, and those old relatives and friends were arranged to live in Shouyuan.

As for those, the Chu family held a memorial service two days ago, mainly to receive these people and the doctors who worked under the old man during his lifetime.

So, on the day of the funeral, those people did not let them come again. They just sent someone to deliver a wreath, burn some paper in front of the coffin, and then left.

However, even with these business people and relatives, the Chu family compound was packed with people.

In the Songyuan study.

"We have to find a way to let Mogu attend the funeral."

Qiqi looked anxious.

"Her own father died, but Mogu could only hide and cry. What's going on?"

"Who says it's not true? But, if you are not a relative, you can't wear full mourning clothes to attend a funeral. There is no other way."

Fang Yumei shook her head.

"The young lady must go to the funeral."

Aunt Lu and Butler Lu looked at each other and felt very embarrassed.

"I'm going to find grandma."

"What's the point of you going to grandma? If you tell her now that Mogu is her biological daughter, grandma won't believe it at all."

Qiqi glared at Yan Chenbei. What a bad idea.

Everyone knows this method, but it doesn't work.

"Third Young Master, you can't go to the old lady. The old man's death was a huge blow to her. If you go and talk about Aunt Mo at this time, the old lady will definitely have a heart attack, which will be troublesome."

Butler Lu objected.

"What I mean is, go find grandma and persuade her to accept Mogu as her goddaughter."

"This is a good idea."

Qiqi's eyes lit up.

"But there must be a reason for the old lady to accept Mogu as her goddaughter. It's useless to speak rashly."

"I just remembered this method."

Fang Yumei suddenly became excited.

"There is a custom in my hometown that those who kill pigs and sheep will offend the killing star. It is said that they will be questioned in the underworld. So in my hometown, when these people die and are buried, they will give Yin gifts to the King of Hell."

"What is Yinli?"

Qiqi knew that in her hometown, when someone who committed murder died, there would be some different customs when they were buried.

But China is so big that the rules change every ten miles.

I don’t know what the rules are in my grandfather’s hometown.

"When the deceased is buried, the older daughters of the deceased's family are asked to wear full mourning clothes with red cloth sewn on their arms, legs and heads. They hold trays in their hands, one with a pig's head and the other with a live chicken. The meaning is that one is born and the other is dead, and that life is death and death is life, which is the natural order of heaven and earth."
