My host is cold and scumbag

The next day was the day of the funeral of the head of the Yu family. Although the ultimate goal of the Yu family was to return to Jiangnan, some matters in the Yu mansion could not be dealt with in a short time. The corpse could not be kept outside forever. All the funeral customs, the guests and the white gifts should have been handled by Ah Fu alone. In the end, it was Zhao Xinyun's suggestion that made Ah Fu come to his senses. After she had done half of it, she actually pulled Yu Qingxu to do it together. Yu Qingxu was tired, but he did not refuse. He obediently followed Ah Fu's guidance and completed the second half bit by bit, including replenishing the mourning hall, keeping the eternal lamps, replacing the tributes, and replenishing the personal items such as burial objects. Finally, because the head of the Yu family died in a foreign land, Yu Qingxu cried and took up the last step of calling the soul yesterday afternoon. He cried while calling and cried forbearingly and gently. Ah Fu said it was over, but he still couldn't recover for a long time.

He hoped that his mother would not forget the way home. He thought that he had been through so many dangerous things during this period of time. Was it because he was an unfilial son who always relied on others that he forgot to call back his mother's soul? His mother did not come home. If his mother was by his side, how could she bear to see him so sad.

Ah Fu knew that the funeral of the head of the Yu family was hastily held, and many things were not done properly. The young master was sad and framed these days, and was threatened by the third princess, and was seriously ill. He was really fragile, so Ah Fu had to delay some things again and again, thinking that the head of the family would not blame him.

The weather was very good this morning, with blue sky and white clouds, and the sun half exposed. Birds were chirping. The wind was also gentle and lingering. Yu Qingxu put on his clothes and kowtowed a few more times in the mourning hall. Ah Fu had already arranged the funeral procession, and eight strong men stood on both sides of the coffin. Ah Fu stood in front of the mourning hall and looked at the people in the courtyard. These were all family members who had received the favor of the head of the Yu family and were loyal. They had supported him all the way and did not leave in despair when the Yu family fell into trouble.

Ah Fu looked relieved, but sad in her heart. She shouted in a deep voice: "Open the coffin."

Eight strong men lifted the coffin one by one. Yu Qingxu held the spirit tablet and walked in front in a loose linen robe to lead the way. Xuan Wu also got up early. He endured the aches all over his body and followed Yu Qingxu. He saw Zhao Xinyun at the edge of the team from afar and pouted.

As soon as he walked out of Yu's house, Li Yi came up in white. She said softly, "Master Yu, I'll see you off as well."

Xuan Wu pursed his lips and Yu Qingxu nodded.

Li Yi's show of goodwill made Xuanwu feel annoyed. This woman was indeed not a bad person, but she was noisy. No wonder she could only write a few words after studying for so many years. But Li Yi had a cheerful personality and cared about Qingxu. If she was not a member of the Li family, Xuanwu would have thought that it would not be impossible to keep Yu Qingxu at home.

Li Yi likes reading and is surrounded by some dull and boring scholars. She has mediocre literary talent and is a decent person. She is not at all like her cunning mother. Her eldest daughter looks more like Li Feng's biological daughter.

But if Li Yi did not sever her relationship with Li Feng, he would never allow her to have any contact with Qing Xu.

Yu Qingxu led the funeral procession, with paper money flying and tumbling on the road, covering the entire street. Passersby stood and watched, and the regret and sympathy in their whispers could no longer affect Yu Qingxu. He lowered his head and walked slowly. The paper money was swirled by the wind, and a calf-high whirlwind stood up beside Yu Qingxu, just like his mother, following him.

It is said that the living send the dead off, which is the last journey of this life together, but others also say that the dead will accompany the living and will not leave until they see him happy and stable. So Yu Qingxu indulged in depravity and thought, if he kept tormenting himself, would his mother stay by his side forever?

"Be careful. Watch the road." Li Yi suddenly said. Yu Qingxu looked up at her in a daze. Li Yi was actually not bad looking. When she smiled, she looked like a little sun with bright eyes. People say that scholars who read too much become aloof and arrogant. I guess Li Yi was born in a merchant family, so she is a bit free and easy. She is impetuous in doing things, but she is sincere and warm to others. Although she occasionally clashes with others, she also knows how to advance and retreat.

At this time, Yu Qingxu was thinking that Li Yi was actually okay. He and Li Yi had known each other since childhood and knew each other's temperament. As a woman, she also had some rumors in Kyoto. It was nothing more than that the second daughter of the Li family failed the exam again, but she was still happy to go drinking.

Moreover, he seemed to have taken Li Yi into consideration at the beginning, but one's own interests were beyond one's control, as Li Yi was a member of the Li family.

He closed his eyes, thanked Li Yi, and continued walking, out of the street, out of the city gate, and onto the hillside path, and finally arrived at the burial site where the grave had been dug. Ah Fu took over the arrangements again, and the eight people put the coffin in steadily. Ah Fu looked at the sky, calculated the time, and then spoke: "The soul returns to heaven, and the body returns to the thick earth. The emperor is above, and the underworld drinks. The earth is in peace, and the tomb is a garden. Everyone rubs the earth and enjoys the warmth."

Yu Qingxu should have burst into tears at that time, but he just held back his tears, gritted his teeth, and watched piles of black soil fall on the coffin. Until his face was dry and painful from the wind. He knelt down in front of the new grave, arranged the food he had carefully prepared, and burned incense and kowtowed. He stood up and walked to the side. Xuanwu and Li Yi knelt one by one, but Yu Qingxu looked at Zhao Xinyun. She was standing far away. From a distance, he could only see a black figure leaning against a tree trunk on the opposite side. She didn't move, just raised her head and met Yu Qingxu's eyes, but Yu Qingxu stubbornly moved away.

Why did he have such expectations for this woman? It should be because when he knew that this was the wife his mother found for him, different emotions arose in his heart. But he heard the woman refuse with his own ears. He suddenly soared into the sky and then fell to the ground, feeling painful and sore.

In this world, what man would not hope to have a wife who is recognized by his parents?

After the event, everyone packed up and prepared to go back. Li Yi walked forward, looked at Yu Qingxu, and asked with concern: "Qing...are you...are you okay..."

Yu Qingxu looked at Li Yi, whose eyes were sparkling and full of pity, and shook his head with a smile: "You have had a hard time along the way, Miss Li, please go back to the Li Mansion and have some tea."

Li Yi also smiled and nodded: "Then I'll talk to you."

A group of people were about to go back, but a gust of cold wind blew, and a dozen men in black holding swords and knives appeared out of nowhere. Everyone screamed in fear and fled in all directions. Only a few people stayed, and they stood back to back in fear. The man in black attacked Yu Qingxu with a clear goal.

Before Xuan Wu could react, he was already in chaos. He rushed forward and fought with someone. The pain from yesterday surfaced, but he still gritted his teeth and snatched the long sword from the other side, holding it in his hand, and went towards Yu Qingxu.

Li Yi immediately hugged Yu Qingxu and rolled away. The black-clothed men came aggressively and stabbed with swords. Li Yi and Yu Qingxu had just dodged a move, but it was too late to move. The sword cut through her clothes. She cried out in pain. Yu Qingxu exclaimed: "Miss Li, what's wrong with you? Hurry up, they are coming for me."

Yu Qingxu and Li Yi were stacked together, and when the man in black swung his sword again, there was almost no time to react. At this time, of course, it was time for our handsome sister Xin to make a shining appearance.

Xuan Wu was fighting while leaning towards Yu Qingxu. When Zhao Xinyun appeared, he was pulled by Zhao Xinyun and kicked out again. The man in black kicked far away. The woman saw that the battle on Yu Qingxu's side was tense, so she pushed Xuan Wu out. This push almost made Xuan Wu fall face first. He half-knelt on the ground to steady himself, looking at Zhao Xinyun's back, and secretly cursed this woman who didn't understand romance again.
