New widow

Qiu Da shouted again: "Sister, sister, I know that if you stay here, you will definitely tell us who wants to kill you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Chu Zhixian wanted to cover Qiu Da's mouth, and a cat rustled out from behind the coffin.

"It turns out to be a raccoon slave." Seeing that it was a cat that had come out, Chu Zhixian felt relieved, and there was a bit of calmness and relief in his words.

"I don't know who raised the cat, but it almost scared people out of their wits." Yu Yulan said softly, and Chu Zhixian's expression suddenly changed again. Butler Qiu had already said: "Since it's just a cat, Then let’s start worshiping now, this is the business.”

Qiu Da had already cried loudly: "Sister, sister, I miss you, I miss you."

Qiu Da's crying was so loud that the county magistrate Chu couldn't help but sigh and looked at Mrs. Chu's coffin.

"Where are my sister's children?" Yu Yulan suddenly asked. Chu Zhixian really didn't think about how to explain, so Chu Zhixian hesitated for a moment and then said: "This place is far away from my hometown and the children are small, so I didn't let them go." They come."

"Aren't you a scholar? Why do you make such important mistakes?" There was a hint of ridicule in Yu Yulan's words. Chu Zhixian frowned and looked at Yu Yulan: "How do you say this?"

"Scholars understand the importance of propriety, justice and shame. When my sister dies, for such a big event, the children will have to go to the funeral no matter what." Yu Yulan said lightly, and Butler Qiu also nodded: "That's right. No matter how you say it, the children will have to attend the funeral." I want to come over for the funeral.”

"They are still young!" Chu Zhixian could only use the excuse that the children were still young. Yu Yulan sneered: "They are still young? Are you trying to cover up something?"

"What do you mean by this!" Chu Zhixian looked at Yu Yulan, his words full of dissatisfaction. Yu Yulan said without fear at all: "You don't care about such a big event as your sister passed away and the children came to attend the funeral. Thinking about taking a concubine and asking for another wife, who knows if you have been hooking up with someone for many years, so you are so impatient that you have to marry someone new before your sister dies in a month."

These words are truly slanderous. After all, Chu Zhixian is out of town all year round, but the new wife he is marrying is here. Where did the hookup come from? So Chu Zhixian's face turned red: "What are you talking about? Where did I hook up with others? Besides, the last time I came here was twenty years ago."

"Who knows if you hooked up twenty years ago." Yu Yulan said this lightly, and Chu Zhixian was so angry that he pointed at Yu Yulan's nose: "What nonsense are you talking about? The new wife is only sixteen years old this year. Twenty years ago, she wasn’t even born.”

"There are so many weird things in this world. Who knows if you are..." Yu Yulan was still making trouble, but Butler Qiu already said: "Niece, I know you feel sorry for my niece, so you said such things, but this It’s still hard to say the words.”

After all, it was about the reputation of another woman, so Yu Yulan only smiled: "What uncle said makes sense, so I will listen to it." This sentence made Chu Zhixian angry and wanted to quarrel with Yu Yulan, but Yu Yulan He has already told Chuchuzhi County: "The children should come to worship their mother no matter what. As for the coffin, it seems that you don't want the coffin to return home."

Although Mrs. Chu is from here, she married out of town and there is no reason to bury her in her natal family. At this moment, Chu Zhixian could only nod his head and agree: "I will arrange for people to pick up the children to attend the funeral today."

"So," Yu Yulan paused deliberately and looked at Chu Zhixian with sarcastic eyes: "You haven't sent back the news of your sister's death?"

This is not because Chu Zhixian deliberately omitted, but because Chu Zhixian knew that his wife died not long ago, so he married another one. His family would definitely not agree. It would be better to marry him outside and take him back. I can only agree.

Now that Yu Yulan directly questioned him, Chu Zhixian's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and then Chu Zhixian muttered: "Because the trivial matters are complicated, there is no..."

"My poor niece!" Butler Qiu was already crying on the side. Although he knew that Chu Zhixian disliked his niece, Butler Qiu really didn't expect that Chu Zhixian would dislike him so much that he didn't even send the news to his family. Then when he waited When Chu Zhixian returns, his family will naturally not be in mourning.

She has been the daughter-in-law of the Chu family for twenty years, and she has always been busy with housework and raising children. Who knows that when she is gone, she will not even be able to mourn her as a whole family.

"No wonder, no wonder." Yu Yulan muttered softly twice. No wonder when they came to the post house, the servants only wore plain clothes instead of the mourning clothes worn by the mistress after her death.

"I, this is also outside, and everything is complicated, and it's not my intention." When Chu Zhixian spoke, his voice lowered significantly. After all, he still had a bit of shame, but not much.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Yu Yulan only read these three good words and said to Butler Qiu: "Since the Chu family doesn't want to hold a funeral with great fanfare, let's do it."

"What do you mean?" Chu Zhixian immediately objected, and Yu Yulan looked at him: "All your actions after the death of my sister were all severances, and even your children did not want them to come to the funeral. In this case, my sister, the son of the Chu family, Wife, there is no need to do this anymore."

When Butler Qiu heard what Yu Yulan said, he took a step forward and tried to stop her, but Yu Yulan had already looked into Butler Qiu's eyes and said word for word: "Uncle, we are doing it for my sister too."

This sentence almost made Butler Qiu shed tears for the sake of his sister. If a stranger was willing to go to this extent in order to find out this matter, then he is also Mrs. Chu's uncle after all. Her parents died early, then he I have to stand up for her. So Butler Qiu nodded slowly: "Thank you very much."

"You, what do you mean?" Chu Zhixian now understood what Yu Yulan meant, and he opened his mouth to object, but Yu Yulan still looked at him: "Do you want to object?"

"The funeral is over, so why bother with extraneous matters." Chu Zhixian said this bravely, and Yu Yulan sneered: "Additional extraneous matters? Let me say something that shouldn't be said. If you become a high official in the future and the court issues another appointment, my sister will also be you. My wife, your family is going to do it again with great fanfare. Then won’t you say that this is an extraneous thing?”

Yu Yulan told the truth. Chu Zhixian knew that he could no longer stop Yu Yulan, so Chu Zhixian frowned tightly: "Silver, and..."
