Everything was carried out in a busy and orderly manner, until the sky was slightly bright, the doctor also sent someone back, and all the people who were supposed to come also came, the living room became a mourning hall, a thin wooden coffin was placed in the middle, and Gu Qitai was already lying in it , the coffin lid has not been closed yet.

Gu Xiuyuan and Han Xiaotian knelt on the left and right in front of the coffin, and added paper money to the brazier. According to Fifth Aunt's instructions, when someone came to express their condolences, they fell on the ground and cried three times, and returned the gift.

After crying for a while, Han Xiaotian felt dry eyes and burning throat, not to mention Gu Xiuyuan who was crying bitterly all the time.

"Fifth Aunt, you pour some water for Xiao Yuan, he keeps crying, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on." Han Xiaotian whispered to Fifth Aunt.

Fifth Aunt originally planned to let the two of them drink some water slowly, but even if the adults couldn't bear it, the two children felt even more uncomfortable.He brought a glass of water and handed it to Gu Xiuyuan, but Gu Xiuyuan acted as if he hadn't seen it, and just lowered his head to add paper money to the brazier.

Seeing this, Han Xiaotian licked his chapped lips, and said softly, "Xiaoyuan, be obedient and drink some water. If you're like this, Dad won't feel at ease when he leaves."

Hearing the word "Father", Gu Xiuyuan's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again: "Father doesn't want me anymore."

"Xiaoyuan!" Han Xiaotian roared in a low voice, seeing that Gu Xiuyuan was unmoved, he took the water glass and poured it into his mouth. Gu Xiuyuan couldn't beat him, and was filled with a full glass of water, coughing violently.

"Han Xiaotian!" Gu Xiuyuan's eyes were red, staring at Han Xiaotian angrily.

Han Xiaotian returned the water glass to Fifth Aunt, "Don't make it for me, the little brat will die if you hear it."

Gu Xiuyuan couldn't hear someone talking about death, but Han Xiaotian had no taboos in his mouth, and said whatever he wanted, and now all the negative emotions were directed at Han Xiaotian.

"You provoked me first, ah!" Shouting, he rushed to Han Xiaotian, punched and kicked again, Han Xiaotian blocked Gu Xiuyuan's chin with his arm, he thought about it, bowed his head and bit.

It was the season when summer and autumn alternated, Han Xiaotian was only wearing a single layer of unlined clothing, this bite actually bit his arm, blood seeped through the material and flowed out along Gu Xiuyuan's teeth.

At this time, Han Xiaotian's anger also came up. He was also very sad when Gu Qitai died. He had already made up his mind to carry the burden of Gu Xiuyuan and run to a well-off life in ancient times. Please take care of him. This little kid doesn't appreciate it. If that's the case, don't Blame him for bullying others because of his age and height.

Gu Xiuyuan didn't expect to bite Han Xiaotian so easily, he was gritting his teeth at a loss, when Han Xiaotian punched him in the face, let go, and fell to the ground.

The group of people in the yard were dumbfounded. What's going on? A fight broke out without seeing it?

Han Xiaotian wanted to go forward, but this kid just needed a beating, he woke up after a few beatings, and was stopped by the fifth aunt: "Xiaotian, stop beating, stop beating."

Han Xiaotian, a 14-year-old child, was not as strong as his fifth aunt. He was hugged by his fifth aunt and couldn't break free.

But Gu Xiuyuan, who fell on the ground, wailed for a while, as if crying out all the pain in his heart.

Han Xiaotian looked at the villain curled up on the ground, the anger in his eyes was replaced by love, he was only ten years old, he was already in his twenties, why bother with a child, let alone his father just died.

"Fifth Aunt, let me go."

"Xiaotian, calm down, Xiaoyuan is still young."

"Fifth Aunt, I know, let me go."

Seeing his calm tone, fifth aunt let go of his hand hesitantly.

Han Xiaotian walked up to Gu Xiuyuan, sat down, pulled him into his arms, patted his back without saying a word, once, once, again.

Gu Xiuyuan had been busy all day since yesterday, and had been making a fuss in the middle of the night and crying for a long time. His energy had already been exhausted. He was patted slowly and regularly by Han Xiaotian, and his heart gradually calmed down. Fell asleep.

Han Xiaotian carried Gu Xiuyuan to the bed in the west room, put him down, but found that he couldn't break Gu Xiuyuan's hand, there must be a filial son crying before the funeral, but he couldn't, so he had to take off his clothes, put on another one, and knelt before the funeral.

The fifth aunt followed all the way, and finally gave a sigh of relief. She thought that the two brothers were going to fall out, but unexpectedly, the turn of events turned around, and the shadows were bright.Sure enough, the third brother at least saw Han Xiaotian right.

The Gu family members who witnessed the whole process nodded secretly, Han Xiaotian, this child, can do it!

It was half morning when Shi Yue received the news, and he rushed over with Shi Chao before he even had time to change his official clothes.

When I entered the door, I saw Han Xiaotian guarding the spirit, and after saluting, he asked, "Where's Xiaoyuan?"

"He was tired. He fainted from crying just now and fell asleep."

The more time I looked at the sky, the sun had already risen, and I was about to send off the funeral. "How can this be done? He has to raise the flag. Wake him up." Just bury.

Gu Qifu also said on the side: "I also mean the same thing, and he is the only one who will send the third brother off for the last time."

Han Xiaotian also understood that the ancients attached great importance to these things, but Gu Xiuyuan was really exhausted, and under the impact of great joy and sorrow, the physical load was heavy. If he interrupted his rest at this time, he might suffer from a serious illness later.

"Since I call Third Uncle Dad, I'm also Dad's son. I'll send you to the funeral. Xiao Yuan is still young and overwhelmed. I'm afraid he'll faint when he sees Dad's burial with his own eyes."

Gu Qifu turned his head to discuss with Gu Da, and they all nodded. If Xiaoyuan's child is sick again, the family will not be able to survive.

"Okay, let's order the cover."

Two clan uncles put the lid on the coffin, and the five-inch nails nailed the lid to death. Han Xiaotian cried from the side: "Father, hide the nails."

Afterwards, eight people lifted the coffin, and Han Xiaotian held up the flag to follow behind, followed by the brothers and nephews of the family, following all the way, every corner, Han Xiaotian wanted to remind: "Father, remember to turn."

After walking for a while, the team will stop for a while, and Han Xiaotian and his nephews will kneel down and kowtow to the coffin before the team can move on.

First, they walked around Gujia Village, and people came to watch from both sides of the road. When they saw Han Xiaotian holding the banner, they talked about it without Gu Xiuyuan.

The cemetery is on the mountain behind the village. It is said that if you climb over this mountain, you will find a continuous mountain range with few people. There is a slope on the south side of the mountain, which is not too steep. This is where the Gu family's ancestor's grave is located.

Some clansmen had already dug a grave next to the grave of Gu Qitai's parents. When they came to the grave, Han Xiaotian kowtowed to Gu Qitai a few more times. Put it in the pit.

It started with Han Xiaotian, holding a handful of soil in his hands, and knelt down to the south of the grave, followed by Gu Qifu and other brothers of the same generation, and then his nephews.

After burning the money to buy the road again, everyone left. Gu Qitai has been buried beside his parents since then. He lived a bumpy life, and finally he will return to his roots.

The men dispersed, and the house was cleaned up by the aunts who couldn't go to the grave. When Han Xiaotian returned home, they all left one after another. In the end, only Gu Qifu and his wife and Shiyue and his son were left behind.

"I didn't expect the third brother to go so soon." Gu Qifu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve and said with emotion. Originally, he thought that the third brother was back, and the brothers could have a good get together. It's only been a few days. Yes, without even saying a word, the person is gone.

"Who says it's not, you say, these two children are left, alas!" Fifth Aunt also sighed, worrying about Gu Xiuyuan and Han Xiaotian.

"Fifth Uncle, Fifth Aunt, don't worry, I can provoke this family, I've been busy all day, go back early and have a rest."

Gu Qifu poked his probe into the west room and found that Gu Xiuyuan was still sleeping, so he nodded, "Well, you should go to bed early too, so don't tire yourself out."

"Hey."

Shi Yue waited for Gu Qifu and his wife to leave, and took out an ingot of ten taels of silver from his bosom, "Xiaotian, you take it."

Han Xiaotian shook his head. He has long seen that Shi Yue and Gu Qitai have an unusual relationship. Normally, with such a support, if Gu Xiuyuan is entrusted to him, he is far better than himself. He believes that Gu Qitai is even more reliable than Shi Yue. There must be a reason for Gu Xiuyuan's personal connections, but he has no choice. He would rather let Gu Xiuyuan suffer with him.

Even if Gu Qitai didn't tell Han Xiaotian, he occasionally heard Xiaoyuan mention that Gu Qitai didn't want Xiaoyuan to be involved in the official family.

If this is the case, then he can't get too close to the time, and the money is even more unacceptable, even if he is not satisfied, ten taels of silver can buy a pig, a field, a house, and a small business... …Unfortunately, this can be viewed, but not taken!

"My lord's kindness, I appreciate it, but my father once told me that if a person wants to live a comfortable life, he should not owe others too much. Your lord has already helped my family a lot. Forgive me for not accepting this money." Since it is going to be far away, then It's okay to call you an adult, Han Xiaotian thought.Ordinarily, in front of the county magistrate, Han Xiaotian would call himself Xiaomin or Caomin, but Han Xiaotian couldn't say it no matter what, so he had to pretend that he didn't know, and let him come and go.

Shi Yue raised his eyebrows, this Han Xiaotian is also stubborn, but in the current day: "You just treat this as condolence money from me."

"Ten texts."

"what?"

"All the uncles in the village gave me ten Wen, so my lord can use this number."

"Why do you have such an elm-headed kid?" Shi Yue put down the money and pulled Shi Chao to leave.

Han Xiaotian picked up the silver and stuffed it into Shi Chao's hands. Shi Chao didn't understand why the two of them pushed the silver back and forth. He only knew that the silver was a good thing and could be used to buy food. Seeing that Han Xiaotian gave him the silver, he held it in his arms In his arms, Shi Yue fell on his back angrily, this unlucky boy, play against him at this time, and deal with him when he goes back.

"My lord, go back, I think Xiao Yuan is about to wake up, I still have to take care of him." Han Xiaotian refused to enter, and sent Shi Yue and Shi Chao out of the door.

As soon as Han Xiaotian walked back, he saw Gu Xiuyuan, who was staring at him with red eyes angrily, leaning against the door frame of the living room. Because of the previous fight, his buns were all loose, and there were tears on his face. On Baby Fat's face, no matter how you look at it, there is a comic effect, but right now, neither of the two is in the mood to laugh.
