A Yuan received a bad news.

Lu An, a young servant from Lu's mansion, came galloping on horseback and informed Mrs. Lu that her father had passed away.

In fact, Li Wei didn't want Ah Yuan to come to express her condolences. Her natal family was in Linqing County, seventy miles away, and it took more than half a day to drive around in a carriage.

She just thought of her friend Yuan at the moment when she let out her grief, like thinking of a touch of heat in the cold night, which can be grasped instantly.

It was almost noon when Luan arrived.

He said that Mrs. Lu stayed in Linqing County, guarding the old man until his death, and has not returned yet.

He said that Manager Lu had already set off, and he followed him afterwards, and Lu Qian would always leave in the early morning of the next day to express his condolences.

Ah Yuan arranged for Lu An to have dinner, and then went to Master Jia to explain, greeted Bai Er Er, and then started to pack things.

In fact, there is nothing to pack. When I came to Bai's house, I bought two more clothes.

With a few more silver ingots and copper coins, Lu Ann's lunch will be full.

"I'll go with you!" In one sentence, Lu Ann was almost frightened, and he rode a horse by himself. How could he go with a woman?

Do men and women ride together?

"I'll go with you!" With the same sentence, but with a different voice, it was Bai Er, who put on a new dress, and said energetically, "Sister-in-law, I'll take you to the town on a tricycle, and let's hire a carriage." Hurry up, just in time, I also want to see if our tricycle can cause a sensation in the county town?"

He spoke very naturally, and didn't mention a polite word about worrying about his sister-in-law's safety.

Ah Yuan's eyes were warm, and she burst into a big smile.He raised his voice and shouted: "Cailian——you take care of your home. I will go out to the county with your second brother. Your elder brother will be home soon. Don't worry!"

The little girl reluctantly watched the three of them far away.

After repeated deliberation and improvement by Bai Lao Er, the tricycle compartment is really not small, and Ah Yuan can stretch his legs comfortably while sitting in it, and there is a compartment to lean on.

Little Luan saw something rare, and he was determined to try it out, and walked slowly with his horse loose.Accompanied by the tricycle of "Kudden-dengdeng".

"Anyway, I can do it if I get to the county seat tomorrow morning, or let me ride this bike too? Brother Bai, ride my horse?" He really wanted to exchange it.

Bai Er thought even more, men, the love for BMW cars is the same in ancient and modern times.

The result is.A Yuan was thrown on the side of the road, and Lu An first taught Bai Lao Er to lead a horse and fall, and Bai Lao Er taught Lu An to ride a tricycle. The journey to the funeral unexpectedly made them find infinite fun.

Before Ah Yuan's endurance was on the verge of limit, the two boys actually started the game of changing rides.Sitting on the tricycle that Luan was pedaling, Yuan missed the rubber tires and shock absorbing equipment of his previous life very much.My butt is about to be turned into an eight-petaled flower!

Facts have proved that the game of changing rides was done right this time. Lu An and Bai Er Er pedaled for a while, and rode for a while, but it was not considered exhausting. Ah Yuan asked himself to pedal for a while.They still refuse to agree!

The speed of the rickshaw is slow, and it has just arrived at the entrance of the town.Then I met Boss Bai who was driving an ox cart home. First, Ah Yuan eagerly reported his itinerary, and then listened to the second brother Bai’s advice on where to sell the tricycle.

In fact, he really wanted to come here with his wife as a flower protector, but unfortunately his second brother was more useful than him, and he could also take care of his own business, so he had to stay at home.

"Second brother take good care of your sister-in-law!" Bai Laoda took out a few pieces of silver taels from his bosom, and handed them to Bai Laoer.

It was not a farewell, the tricycle continued to ride into the town "cracking—cracking".

Only at this time can you deeply understand the meaning of the word "sensation".

This rare vehicle was followed in an instant. Behind the wheel, children followed to see it, and then adults wanted to touch it. The white boy could only run away, pedaling non-stop, his forehead was sweating like rain, and his new clothes were covered by dust. lost color.

"Look, a monster that is not pulled by a horse or an ox, but walks with human feet—" Behind him, the clamor and exclamation continued.

Lu An knew the place well, and quickly found a carriage dealer, negotiated the matter of renting a carriage, and picked a large cart to carry the three-wheeled baby.

The two young men started to put the tricycle on the carriage, and drove Ah Yuan to speed up.

After all, it was a professional carriage, and there was still a soft cushion in the airtight compartment. Ah Yuan's nerves immediately relaxed, and he leaned on the cushion and closed his eyes to rest.

The feeling of being chased and watched like a monkey just now is really not good, the idea of ​​Bai Er Er wanting to use himself to advertise is unreliable!

Lu An felt much more relaxed now, driving side by side with the carriage on the main road, chatting with Bai Er Er occasionally, the night slowly fell.

Ah Yuan fell asleep amidst the unbearable jolts, and did not wake up until the cold invaded her sleep.

You can't see your fingers outside, and the sound of horseshoes "treading", marching along the light color of the road.

"We will be able to enter the county in a while. At this time, there are still many food stalls selling food in the night market. Let's warm up first--" Lu An was talking to Bai's second son: "Or let's go to Li Mansion, we will talk about it after we see that Madam has settled her residence."

"Let's find a place to eat first!" Ah Yuan answered, her voice still obviously hoarse: "Lu An, we don't live in Li's residence, we'd better find a nearby inn to settle down first."

They are not here as guests, so naturally they don't want to bother the host's house. Besides, if they live in someone else's house, who knows what kind of eyes they will get from the relatives of the Li family?No matter how capable Mrs. Lu is, she is just a daughter returning to her natal family, so why should she be embarrassed?

Lu An understood, and after driving into the county seat, he found the inn first, settled the carriages and luggage, and then took the two of them to Li's residence to express their condolences.

It is said that no one will come to the door at this time, but the relatives during the funeral have to stay in the mourning hall, guarding the incense sticks in front of their heads, and refilling another one before extinguishing one.It is said that it is to guide the dead relatives to find the way to the underworld.

The funeral of Li's family was very big, the sound of monks chanting scriptures was non-stop day and night, plain white paper was everywhere, and mourning was everywhere.

Uncle Ayuan and his sister-in-law were not stopped because of Lu An's guidance and the meaning of opening the doors at funerals regardless of status and status to pay homage to the dead.

The family members in the mourning hall were few and far between, and the intellectuals who took care of the guests and friends also had a rest. Bai Er Er and Lu An kowtowed and bowed together according to the old-fashioned etiquette, and A Yuan followed behind.She bowed her head and performed the etiquette of her previous life.

Mrs. Lu, Li Wei, was guarding the incense in the mourning hall, and Lu Liu was with her. Hearing Lu An's voice outside, she came out to welcome her.I saw Yuan.

Seemingly surprised that Ah Yuan came here at this time, Lu Liu turned around and hurriedly whispered to Mrs. Lu.

Li Wei lost a lot of weight again, her originally standard oval face became thin like a melon seed, when she saw A Yuan coming in behind Lu Liu, she suddenly lost her voice in grief.

Ah Yuan hugged this closest friend with his arms.Let her exchange tears, listen to her cry and confide: "I knew that father would leave. The doctor said he would not live for ten days, but sister Ayuan, after smoking the cigarettes you sent, father has been in good spirits, even taking medicine He also refused to eat, and only said that he was all well, yesterday. He also asked someone to wash his face, wash his face and change into new clothes, and sat up to talk to me. He told me to go home early, because he was afraid that I would live here for so long time, neglected her husband—"

"Father said, the cigarette is really good, there is no pain anywhere on the body, and I am very happy in my heart. My whole body is floating on the clouds. Even if I die like this, I will still enjoy it—"

"Father walked away with a smile, dressed cleanly, rinsed his mouth, combed his hair again, lay down happily, asked me to pass him a cigarette, and then—then—"

Ah Yuan's hand gently patted Li Wei's back. They are friends, and they can't do much for each other. In the saddest moment, they can only be like this, accompany, and listen.

The coffin of Mr. Li is quiet and peaceful in the swaying candlelight. At least one daughter is deeply missing his voice and smile, and remembers all the love he gave.

Li Wei squinted her eyes slightly while she was talking, her chin rested on A Yuan's shoulder, she was too tired, she was nervous for a long time, and faced with the death of her relatives, she almost collapsed, and she couldn't fall asleep from yesterday until now. At this moment, he was finally drowsy and sleepy.

Together with Lu Liu, Ah Yuan helped Li Wei back to the bedroom to sleep peacefully, looked at her red and swollen eyes, and sighed slightly.

"Sister Ah Yuan, would you like to light a cigarette for Madam next to her? The maidservant will watch, and when the cigarette is lit, Madam will feel better." Lu Liu was very worried about Madam Lu's state, and hoped that she would be happier.

But, how can that work?

Ah Yuan's eyes widened and he asked in a low voice: "I have specially instructed that all the remaining cigarettes must be burned, can you still keep them?"

Luliu was taken aback, and stroked her chest to explain: "Steward Lu said, it's Madam, thinking that the master likes to smoke this cigarette, I plan to burn one for the master every day, so that he can enjoy it over there." Keep pumping—"

"Hurry up and give me all the remaining cigarettes. If you want to burn them for Mr. Li, I'll burn them, burn them all!" A Yuan grabbed Lu Liu's shoulder and shook it violently a few times.

"But ma'am—" Lu Liu was about to cry from fright, Madam Lu looked at things that looked like treasures, how could she take them out without permission and burn them all?

"That's drugs! Your wife will be poisoned to death if she burns it!" Ah Yuan's almond-shaped eyes widened and her brows were furrowed, as if she was about to eat people.

poison?Lu Liu was frightened even more, stumbling under her feet, she took out a small package from a wooden box.

There were less than ten cigarettes left in one hundred cigarettes with flavoring. A Yuan grabbed the package tightly, pulled the green willow, and went back to the mourning hall together.

The brazier for burning paper money has now become a place for "selling cigarettes".

The smoke is gone, and the legacy of the poppy has been completely eliminated? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
