An old lady's life

On the last day of the day, after the noon banquet, Ai Cao didn't return to Lin's house early, and most of the guests didn't leave either. Today's guests are not light.

Although the crown prince and the three county kings have not arrived, the crown prince and the three county princesses have arrived, and they have not left yet, so many guests weighed the situation and stayed.

A carriage stopped at the gate of Rongfu, and Tian Shilang got out of the carriage with the support of the coachman. The butler who came with him was holding a memorial ceremony in his hand. On the ceremony.

Tian Shilang's face was serious, he heard the news of Jia Daishan's death just after he returned to the capital, and when the carriage was driving on the street, he heard the phrase "Miss Tian's eldest brother is using my concubine as a slave" from a child playing on the side of the street. With those words, Tian Shilang's face immediately turned as dark as a pot.I just returned to the Tian Mansion, washed and changed into clean clothes, and called the housekeeper to ask questions. The housekeeper is also worried. I don't know what happened to my wife, and suddenly lost my IQ.

Tian Shilang didn't have time to question his wife, so he hurried to Rongfu with the housekeeper and the funeral ceremony prepared by the housekeeper.As soon as he stepped into the gate, Tian Gaojie and Jia Xiyao saw him, and they greeted him respectively, and led them to the mourning hall to worship the dead.

Coming out of the mourning hall, Tian Shilang only felt that everyone was looking at him with sarcasm in their eyes.Under the crowd, Tian Shilang felt that his face was burning.

"Mother-in-law, I'm sorry, I'm late. San'er's mother has been ill in bed for the past few days, please forgive her in-laws for being rude." Tian Shilang had no choice but to say this, anyway, he had to round up his words.

Hongye held the same sad face for the past few days, lowered her eyes and sighed: "It is already the friendship between the two families that the father-in-law can come to see the master off." Mansion, Mrs. Tian is really sick.

Tian Gaojie and Jia Xiyao stood aside, bowing their heads respectfully, both of them were filled with sadness.And thinking of the days to come, Jia Xiyao felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart, wondering how her aunt would torment her after this period of time passed.

Tian Shilang was extremely ashamed in his heart, and the others left Rongfu one after another after watching a good show.Tian Shilang can't leave, he has to stay after the evening banquet no matter what.

When Tian Shilang returned to Tianfu at night, Mrs. Tian was really seriously ill and could not get up in bed. Tian Shilang glanced at Mrs. Tian in front of the bed, with deep disappointment in his eyes, and then turned around He shook his sleeves and left without saying a word to Mrs. Tian from the beginning to the end.

Mrs. Tian panicked for a moment, and cursed those two brats angrily in her heart.Originally, she was not lying when she said that the concubine, concubine and daughter-in-law would go to the Rong Mansion together, but unfortunately, after the two little bitches returned to Beijing, they went directly to the Rong Mansion, and she seemed unable to step down.But now the top priority is to turn her daughter's reputation around. Jia Xiyao is quite capable and dares to play Zhen'er's idea. Wait for a while, she won't spare them!

Rongguo Mansion, the courtyard is very quiet, the mourning band masters and masters have gone to rest, waiting for the last journey of the dead tomorrow morning, and they will retire.

In the mourning hall, Hongye is the head, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng stand in front of Hongye, Zhang's Wang family, Jia Min, Lin Hai, Jia Siyao Qi frame, Jia Xiyao, Tian Gaojie all stand behind.

Tomorrow, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng will send Jia Daishan to Jinling.

"Tomorrow, the eldest and the second will send the father-in-law back to the ancestral grave in Jinling for burial. I have sent Lin Ye to make preparations for the affairs along the way." Hongye stopped talking here and glanced at the two cheap sons.

Jia Amnesty didn't show any surprise, he was supposed to do this.Jia Zheng was a little surprised. He originally thought that it would be enough for his mother to arrange for his eldest brother to go back to Jinling, but he didn't expect him to go too.

Everyone in the back held their breath, just as expected, Mrs. Zhang was not surprised. After all, the master is the eldest son, and it is only natural to send the father-in-law back to the ancestral grave for burial.

Wang Shi pursed her lips, feeling some thoughts in her heart.

As for Jia Min and others, mother has the final say on this matter, and they will not participate in it at all.

Hong Ye continued: "To be filial to a son is to be filial to one's father. This is a thousand-year-old etiquette. The eldest and the second will keep filial piety for the master for a hundred days at the ancestral residence in Jinling..."

Jia She opened his mouth round, as if realizing that his expression was wrong, he immediately closed it again, and then looked at his mother eagerly.He thought to himself that he had no objection to being filial to his father, but if he stayed in Jinling for a hundred days, wouldn't he miss the Chinese New Year?

"Why? The boss and the second child have an opinion?"

Jia Zheng quickly shook his head: "The son will do what the mother tells him. I dare not have any objections. Besides, it is the son's duty to be filial to his father."

Jia She nodded again and again: "That's right, the second brother is right, mother, what other orders do you have?"

"Since the boss and the second child have no objection, then I will continue to talk. To keep the old man's spirit for a hundred days, the eldest and the second child must copy the filial piety scriptures ten times a day and burn them in front of the old man's grave to comfort the old man's spirit in heaven."

Hongye ignored the obviously embarrassed expression on Jia She and Jia Zheng's face, and continued: "Of course, if She'er Zheng'er can copy it five more times and bring it back to honor me, my mother will be very pleased."

Jia She did all the things to win the mother's favor, and he immediately raised his voice: "Mother, don't worry, being filial to a son is the top priority, and the son can do it."

Jia Zheng can only express his position in this way. Anyway, it should not be difficult to copy the Book of Filial Piety five times.

Hong Ye nodded with satisfaction: "Well, dear, mother is waiting for your filial piety. Since you keep filial piety for a hundred days, [-] filial piety scriptures every day is not very good to pass the time, so I will add one more."

Jia Amnesty's complexion has turned sour, Jia Zheng can still maintain a gentleman's style, the people behind are quite puzzled, what is the mother/mother-in-law doing?Is it because he is afraid that Jia will forgive Jia Zheng for doing something stupid during his filial piety?In fact, as long as the observance of filial piety is well-behaved, there is no need to be as strict as Jielu. I am really worried that the two of them will do something stupid. Wouldn't it be better to stay in the mansion?

"Liuli, give me the book." Liuli, who had been serving as the background board behind Hongye, immediately handed over a thick book, and Hongye took it in her hand, and then showed the title of the book to everyone.

"Master is gone. The boss and the second are the masters of the house. In the future, you must not stay in the house like before. After the filial piety is over, you must not contact outsiders. In case you don't understand anything and do something wrong, you First clarify the Dafeng Law, I don’t ask you to memorize it backwards, but I ask you to know what not to do.”

Now Jia She and Jia Zheng’s expression fell to the ground. The others were just full of doubts. They couldn’t figure out why the mother asked Jia She and Jia Zheng to study the law. Could it be that the mother planned to send the two older brothers (brother/brother-in-law) to the Ministry of Criminal Justice in the future? work?

Hongye is very satisfied with the effect she has created. Anyway, you can’t guess her intentions. In fact, it’s really for everyone’s benefit. When the two return in a hundred days, it’s exactly three years of filial piety. She will ask Jia Zheng to teach his daughter-in-law to read and write. After reading, aren't you so bold because you don't read?She asked Mrs. Wang to read more books, especially the Dafeng Law, which is the most important.

The same goes for Jia Amnesty, he needs to know how powerful the court's laws are, otherwise she doesn't have clairvoyance and can't always look at him if she does something.

"Emerald Liuli, send the few books I prepared to the Elder Master and the Second Master. I only ask for the Sutra of Filial Piety and the Laws of the Great Phoenix. The other books are for you to cultivate your sentiments, whether you like it or not."

Fei Cui and Liu Li held a few books each, and then came to Jia She and Jia Zheng, and handed them all to Jia She and Jia Zheng.

"By the way, the name of the mansion will be changed in the future, and we will keep it informed." Originally, it was planned to make adjustments after Jia amnesty and Jia Zheng returned, but when the words came to this point, he followed the trend.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng were holding a pile of books in their hands and were about to cry. Fortunately, they had been watching the spirit for the past few days.

The servants whispered a few words before giving up, and the unified caliber was "the old lady seems to have become much stricter".Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief. The master was going to go for more than three months, and he was caught up in the matter of copying books. It was even more unlikely that he would cause any trouble in Jinling.Jia Siyao Jia Xiyao only felt that the aunt was more powerful than before, and it seemed that the aunt treated them much better than before.Jia Min was a little puzzled, but the mother did this for the good of her brothers, no mother would harm her son, Jia Min felt relieved.The three sons-in-law didn't even have the right to speak. In fact, they didn't know what kind of person their mother-in-law was before. It was impossible for the wife to criticize her mother-in-law in front of them.

The next day, at about Chen, the funeral team set off from Rongguo Mansion. Hongye, wearing a white belt on her head, walked behind the coffin, followed by Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng and other sons, daughter-in-law, son-in-law, and Jia Jing, Jia Zhen and other Jia nephews and nephews. Headed towards the pier in a mighty manner.Many people sent wreaths and elegiac couplets along the way until the pier.

Sorrows and joys fluttered all the way, and the team was solemn and solemn!

The coffin was quickly carried onto the ship, and the servants kept gathering the wreaths and elegiac couplets along the way, and placed them all around the coffin. The whole ship was filled with a sad atmosphere.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng kowtowed to Hongye three times at the pier, and then the two brothers boarded the boat. The boatman whistled, and the two boats swayed out of the pier.

According to the past ostentation of Rongguo Mansion, there will only be five boats prepared for the funeral, and dozens of servants.But now, looking at the two crude boats, apart from the servants who carried the coffin, only the steward Lin Ye followed, and the servants served by Jia She and Jia Zheng only followed two servants, and the rest no more.

Hongye said in her heart, sincerity leads to spirit, they are there to observe filial piety, not to enjoy happiness, why send so many people?How can Jia Daishan feel the filial piety of his sons without doing it himself?

Seeing the ship sailing far out of sight and turning into a black spot on the water, Hongye turned around, Zhang, Wang, and other people wearing Xiao all turned behind Hongye.

Hongye took everyone to bow deeply to those who came to see Jia Daishan off!

In the solemn scene, whether the onlookers were ordinary people who came to see the excitement, or relatives from the mansion who came to see off the last journey early in the morning, everyone felt open in their hearts. This old lady of Rongguo Mansion really knows how to behave!
