Chapter 44

After Cheng Yongnian passed out, the whole family panicked.

Shen Qingning rode a horse to invite a doctor, and when the old doctor felt Cheng Yongnian's pulse, he just shook his head and sighed at everyone.

"Get ready for the funeral."

Shen Meixiang couldn't breathe and almost fainted, and Jiang slapped her desperately a few times before she burst into tears!
"Yongnian~"

Cheng Lanhui lay on Shen Qingning's back and wept her clothes wet.

After dark, when Cheng Yongnian opened his eyes again, he saw his father-in-law, mother-in-law, wife and daughter all guarding him.

He felt that his body seemed to be better and he had more strength.

"Father, I want to say a few words to Mei Xiang and Lan Hui."

The old couple and Shen Qingning immediately turned around and left his room, "Okay, okay, don't say a few words, you need to rest more."

When there was only a family of three left in the room, Cheng Yongnian waved to the mother and daughter, "Come here."

He took the hands of his wife and daughter, his face full of reluctance, "The time has come, I have to go."

"Eternal years."

"Father."

"Don't talk for now, you must remember what I say next. Father-in-law, mother-in-law and the three uncles are all good people. After I die, you take the money and bring Huier back to Jiping, buy some land and rent it out. Relying on renting a house can barely raise the child.

I know that most of your temperament will not remarry, but I still advise you, a person's life is very long, and it is too hard to live alone.If someone is protecting you, I can rest assured. "

Shen Meixiang choked up, "My father and brother will protect me, and I will raise Huier well."

Cheng Yongnian felt a pain in his heart, "But it's too hard for you like this. You have lived a smooth life for half of your life. I didn't expect that the biggest hurdle came from me. I'm sorry for you."

"Don't say that, you have been very kind to me these years. You are the only child in the family, and I only gave birth to a daughter, Lan Hui. You have never had the slightest resentment towards me and the child. You have always been very kind to me, always very good ~"

Cheng Yongnian couldn't hold back his tears, and turned to Cheng Lanhui, "Hui'er, don't be sad."

Cheng Lanhui was so crying that she couldn't speak.

"You and your aunt have returned to your grandparents' house. In the future, you will find a family in Jiping with a decent family style to marry. You don't have any brothers. You must marry someone who is close to your grandparents' house and can take care of your mother. , if something happens, the cousins ​​are also your reliance."

Cheng Lanhui nodded desperately, "Father, I understand."

"You just have to remember to stay with your mother in your grandparent's house, no matter who the Cheng family comes to find you and arrange a marriage for you, you don't care.

Don't listen to anyone's rhetoric, no matter who is in need of borrowing money, you can't sell the land, this is the foundation for your mother and daughter to live and work, remember!
You can no longer be petty in your grandparents' house, and don't argue with your cousins. "

Speaking of this, Cheng Yongnian couldn't help sobbing, his daughter hadn't grown up yet, and he couldn't watch her marry and have children.Cheng Yongnian's voice began to tremble when he thought of his own panic after his father passed away when he was young.

"Father will definitely bless you in heaven, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you will grow up soon."

In the main room, Shen Qingning and her grandparents were silent.

Jiang's eyes were already red and swollen from crying, and old Shentou also had a sad face.

"Qing Ning."

"Grandfather?"

"You go to the county seat tomorrow morning to buy a coffin."

"it is good."

Jiang took out the money bag and gave Shen Qingning a few taels.

"Except for those shameless cousins, there is no one else in the son-in-law's house, so I have to call Mei Xiang and her three elder brothers to come over for the funeral."

Old Shentou nodded, "If the letter was delivered in the morning, someone should come to the house in the morning."

Just as Jiang was about to speak, a cry came from the room, "Yongnian~"

"Dad~"

After explaining the matter, Cheng Yongnian finally let go of his breath.

The money bag in his hand fell to the ground, and Jiang covered his face and wept bitterly.

Shen Qingning's heart was also severely pinched, such a good person as uncle is gone!

At this time there was movement in the yard, Shen Qingning opened the door and saw that it was Cheng Xuewen, a student of that uncle.

At this time, he also heard the movement in the room, "Sir!"

After being stunned, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times in the direction of Cheng Yongnian's room, then turned around and ran away!
Shen Qingning didn't have time to pay attention to him, seeing him running away, she returned to the house.

It was the first time for her to encounter such a thing, and there was nothing she could do, she could only wait aside and listen to Jiang's arrangements.

No sleep for one night.

When the chickens in the yard crowed for the first time, the sky was only slightly brighter.

Shen Qingning opened the door, the first thing she did today was to go to the county town to buy a coffin for her uncle.

Seeing a group of people walking towards them from afar, Shen Qingning couldn't help shouting, "Auntie!"

After one night, Shen Meixiang seemed to be a few years older all of a sudden.

When she saw a group of people outside the courtyard, she covered her mouth and cried again.

It was Cheng Xuewen's father who brought his son and members of the Cheng family over, "Sisters and sisters, I know Yongnian left last night. This is what my father prepared for himself. Although we have produced five clothes, we are all from the Cheng family. If you don't mind , These will be used by Yongnian first."

A coffin and a stack of white cloths were placed on a cart pushed by people behind him.

Shen Meixiang stepped forward and bowed deeply to everyone, "Thank you!"

Cheng Xuewen's mother stepped forward and grabbed Shen Meixiang, "Siblings, don't be like this. Yongnian is our Cheng family. He has always been kind-hearted. How many children in the village have been taught by him. I was injured back then, and the old man fell ill again. Really I don’t have a penny to pay for the repairs, but brother Yongnian said, if you don’t have one, you won’t pay it, and if you can’t delay your child’s study, you’ll be exempted. Without him, my family’s literary studies would not be where we are today. This is a good relationship with him!”

When Shen Meixiang heard her talking about her deceased husband, she felt unbearable grief, but she knew that now she had to stand up and support the family.

"Thank you sister-in-law."

"No, no, just tell me if you have anything to do, and we will all listen to you."

"Mei Xiang!"

"sister!"

It was the three Shen Dahe brothers who came with their sons, and the messenger told them that Cheng Yongnian was only a few days away.

After being shocked, he called back Shen Dashan who was in the county seat, and came over with the male at home!
~~~~
A few days later, Cheng Lanhui followed her mother holding her father's tablet.

Shen Meixiang was stunned at the gate of the courtyard for a long time, reluctant to close the gate.

This is the place where she has lived for more than ten years. This is the place where Hui'er was born and raised. Once the door is closed, this place has nothing to do with their mother and daughter.

The others had already returned to Dongshui Village, and now Shen Dahe and Shen Qingning were left to accompany the mother and daughter.

"Mei Xiang, let's go."

"Second brother, can't you wait a few more days?"

"It's already passed the first seven days, only you and Huier stay here, parents don't worry, didn't Yongnian also leave a message?"

Cheng Lanhui also said, "Mother, Dad said so."

Shen Qingning drove the carriage out of the village entrance, and a drop of water landed on the tip of her nose.

It's raining?
Cheng Lanhui looked at the water marks on her palm, "Mother, it's raining."

Shen Meixiang looked at the sky, then at the home in the distance, feeling sad, she hugged her daughter and cried bitterly!
 This matter is over, and it seems that it has little to do with the heroine, but the mother and daughter will be important supporting roles in the future, so I wrote a little more.
