Rise of the Light of the Elf

Chapter 67 The turmoil on the day of burial

After sending Nuotuan and his mother away, Xisang sorted out his father and mother's clothes alone and put them together in the coffin customized for his father.

Early the next morning, it was the third day since the news of Jiang Cheng's death came, and it was the day of burial.Xisang spread the news that her mother had passed away, but she herself wore a mourning belt on her head, a white burlap gown without seams, a hemp rope around her waist, and straw sandals on her feet and knelt in the mourning hall to mourn. All the servants also wore Ma Daixiao mourned the Lord.In the mourning hall, mourning banners are hung, and offerings, incense, candles, and paper money are placed.

Xisang looked particularly haggard and lonely in this stark whiteness.

The prime minister and his ministers often brought gifts, gifts, elegiac couplets, and wreaths to express their condolences.

They both stepped forward and offered incense sticks to their father. They looked at Xi Sang and sighed: "My child, I've suffered a lot for you."

Xisang shook his head slightly and wanted to say something, but heard a noise at the door.

She frowned and raised her head, but she vaguely saw the boy running over.The boy gasped and said: "Little master, there are people outside who are here to express their condolences to the master. But... they are wearing mourning clothes. They are said to be... they are real relatives of the master."

Hearing this, Xi Sang's face became terrifyingly gloomy.She heard her mother say that her father was an orphan.Since she was born, her father's side has never had any relatives. Now that her father has passed away, there are no relatives.

Xisang immediately got up and rushed to the door, only to see those people pushing and shoving her young man, making noisy noises, as if there was no one around, as if there was no one around, and there were already people around.

Xisang exhaled and said loudly: "Uncles and aunties, you may have gone to the wrong place, right? Don't make any noise during funerals. This is not a busy place. You should find another place to make noise."

"Ai! Who are you? Your hair is as white as an old man, why do you care about us? Ah? I am the aunt of Taiwei Jiang in this house. Can you care about me?" An old woman with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks walked away He came forward and pointed at Xi Sang.

Xisang was not angry but smiled instead: "I thought everyone knew that Jiang Taiwei's son has white hair and bad eyesight. I don't think there are people who don't know. And you still claim to be a relative of mine. I want to Let me ask you which family member you are from my family, okay?"

Only then did the old woman realize that she had scolded the wrong person.They live in the countryside and are not in the royal city. How could they have such good information?When their nephew became a general, they had heard about it and came to make trouble.But who knew that the white-eyed wolf was stunned and had them knocked unconscious and sent back to their hometown, and said that if they dared to come to him again, they would be killed.The whole family was afraid of his power and did not dare to come again.But a few days ago, an official told her that her nephew was dead, and that there was a large empty house waiting for someone to live in, and there was even a huge fortune.When they heard this, they couldn't sit still.The group of them came in a hurry and didn't ask for any information, which is why this joke happened.

The old woman had an idea and gave her husband a hard squeeze.

I saw an old man, stroking his white beard with his hand, and said slowly: "My son, we should talk about our own affairs behind closed doors. If we make any noise here, we will make other people laugh in vain. Let's go, let's go Go in first." When the old man spoke, he did not look at Xisang but kept glancing into the house.After saying this, he started to move past Xi Sang.

Xisang looked at this shameless man and laughed angrily.Then her face darkened and she shouted loudly: "Nonsense! Let's see who dares to take a step forward! Do you think you can enter the Taiwei's house if you want? Come here! I'll arrest them all and throw them into the government office." "

When those people heard the words "official", they immediately panicked.The old woman said in a high-pitched voice: "Let's see who dares to catch me! Even if the King of Heaven comes today, he will never try to drive me away. Jiang Cheng's father is Jiang Dazhuang, and he is my husband's biological brother! Can this blood relationship be cut off?" "

She saw that the memorial tablet of her grandfather was Jiang Dazhuang. From this point of view, this matter is probably true, but why didn't dad mention it to me?I'm afraid dad thinks these people are not worth mentioning.Let the housekeeper go to these people's hometowns and inquire about them.As the saying goes, attraction comes from the heart, and seeing how rude they were, she couldn't feel any good feelings towards them.She immediately called the housekeeper, whispered a few words to the housekeeper, and then said to the group of people: "Then you go and get the genealogy. I will look at the genealogy and then talk about it." The delay was for a while.

"The genealogy is in my arms." The old man took out a genealogy with a smile. He didn't know whether he was excited or afraid, but his hands were shaking a little.

Xisang narrowed his eyes.How could an ordinary countryman be so prepared?From this point of view, there should be some guidance from someone.She took the genealogy, handed it to the boy next to her and said, "Send it to the government to debate the authenticity first. Come to me after you have distinguished the authenticity. If anyone dares to argue again, I will throw him away from the government. It's a crime." The taboo on funerals should bear the corresponding consequences."

Those people immediately looked at me and I looked at you, and kept silent.

As soon as Xisang left, they began to quietly discuss the spectacular Taiwei Mansion they had just glimpsed.

Two hours later, the housekeeper quietly said to Xi Sang: "Little master, I found out that these people are indeed my uncles and uncles. But when the old master passed away, they kicked him out. I have been begging for money to grow up." They had come a few years ago, but their master knocked them unconscious and threatened them, and they were afraid, so they didn't dare to come. Now, they are having a hard time, so they want to get a share of the pie because their master is gone. "

"Have you brought any witnesses?"

"I brought it. It was among the crowd. Kuai Ma only brought one." said the steward.

Xisang frowned and nodded: "What I hate the most in my life is the master who flatters the superior and despises the inferior. If I had known about this, why would I do it in the first place?"

Not long after, the boy who went to the government office also came. The boy said: "Master, it's true."

Xisang patted the boy and said, "Of course I know that's true, just by looking at their expressions. It's just that I have to delay this time, otherwise I won't know how to deal with it properly."

She slowly followed them to the door and said to the group of people: "Since what the government says is true, please come in."

The group of people's eyes lit up when they heard this.But suddenly a voice from the crowd said: "Jiang Dafu, what are you doing here?"

The old man looked towards the crowd and saw that it was his neighbor.He smiled and said: "Come to attend the funeral of my nephew."

But the man said: "Which nephew? I haven't heard that one of your nephews is gone."

"My brother Jiang Dazhuang's son."

"That's not kind of you. When Jiang Dazhuang and his wife were gone, you kicked that kid out and let him beg to grow up. Now that he's gone, why did you come to recognize him as your bride?" The man smiled. road.

"Young man, don't be too busy to worry about other people's family affairs. If I hadn't kicked him out of the house, how would he have had this opportunity?" The old woman glared at the man.

The crowd burst into laughter, and someone whispered: "I have never seen such a shameless person." Someone else whispered: "Such a person should be beaten to death with a stick."

But the person involved did not realize it at all and said confidently: "No matter what we do to him, we are still his relatives, and this family must live together."

Xisang asked the crowd, "I've seen brothers living together, and I've seen uncles and nephews living together. This is the first time I've seen this person push them away and argue about living with their grandnephew. Everyone." What do you guys think?"

Everyone responded.
