Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 820 Song Mansion's Funeral Affairs (1 more)
The Mid-Autumn Festival was supposed to be a reunion night, but the Song family hung a mansion white.

Just arrived in Beijing today, regarding her mother-in-law's funeral, Wen Wan didn't make any preparations in advance, now she is so busy that she has no time to feel sad.

Zhao Xunyin stayed behind to help with the arrangements, fearing that the servants of the Song Mansion would not be able to do anything about it, so he transferred more than a dozen servant girls from his own mansion.

When Aunt Xie heard Song Qi's words, she almost got angry and left. She didn't want her sister-in-law to fall down and never woke up again. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so frightened that they were at a loss.

The old lady Liang was overly frightened, she passed out once before, and after being revived by the government doctor, Wen Wan arranged for her servants to send her back.

Trivial matters, not to mention a big order, even if there are so many servants running errands, Wen Wan still has a lot to worry about, missing one at a time, and another at a time.

She was so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist, finally got some free time, and was about to ask Linglong to rub her, but she saw Song Wei sitting outside the mourning hall.

Surrounded by the busy figures of maids, women, and servants, he sat quietly on the stone steps, staring blankly at the row of ants passing by on the ground, his eyes glazed over.

"Sister-in-law." Wen Wan called out, and walked over, knowing that he was feeling uncomfortable, she tried her best not to let herself feel sad.

When she was in Ningzhou, Wen Wan had a premonition. When Mrs. Song asked to return to Beijing, the couple knew that this time the disaster could not be avoided.

Mrs. Song was such a strong person, and because of the death of Song Jiao's mother and son, her mind collapsed, and she was full of anger in her heart, and she would not let it go until she vented it.

So in fact, both husband and wife understand very well that they have to prepare for the funeral as soon as they come back.

But this day really came, Wen Wan didn't expect to bring such a big blow to Xianggong.

He was sitting beside her, but she could no longer feel his indomitable perseverance before.

Even after trying so many times, he couldn't get into the examination room, even if he was pointed at by someone because of his brother-in-law's death, why didn't he die, why didn't he die for Dalang and his wife, he never felt depressed.

But now, he is as fragile as an egg shell that can be crushed.

Wen Wan didn't persuade him to mourn, since his mother just passed away, who can mourn, she just whispered: "My husband used to be alone, but now you have me, it's a big deal, and I will accompany you to face and bear together , no matter what, the living are the most important."

Yes, the living are the most important. She is the mother of three children and the head mother of the Song Mansion. All the subordinates have to come to her to ask for instructions, and she has to worry about everything. At this time, she can't be weak and can't fall down. Otherwise, the family will fall apart.

The mother-in-law who always had a sharp mouth and a tofu heart is gone, and Wen Wan feels uncomfortable.

But seeing the husband beside him, no matter how uncomfortable he had to bear it, he couldn't show the slightest bit.

"After driving for so long, I'm tired even thinking about it. Let's go back to the room and rest." Wen Wan said: "I'm the one to do the rest."

Saying that, Wen Wan stretched out her hand to support him.

Song Wei sat still, and suddenly said, "Wanwan, I want to go home."

Wen Wan originally restrained herself very well, but when she heard this, her nose suddenly turned sour.

After so many years of husband and wife, they had a tacit understanding, and she understood the deep meaning of his words.

He regretted taking the imperial examination, and regretted being an official in the capital.

If he can protect the people but not his family, this will become a pain that he will never erase for the rest of his life.

His throat choked, and he said gently, "Hui, when the coffin returns home, I will accompany you home."

Mrs. Song said before that if she died one day, Song Wei would send her back to Ningzhou for burial.

After all, he was still homesick. Even if Song Wei bought a cemetery in the suburbs of Beijing, the old man refused to stay.

Song Wei's head suddenly tilted, "Lend me your shoulder."

Feeling the small weight on her shoulders, Wen Wan was speechless.

She wanted to point fingers at others, and even more directly, Song Wei was unlucky from the womb. He finally started the scientific research at the age of 28. It is not easy to climb up to today. Fate drove him away, but it didn't. The higher he climbed, the more accidents happened, and the bad luck grew wildly, more than ever.

The death of the mother-in-law undoubtedly became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Mr. Xiang, who had been tortured by bad luck for so many years, finally collapsed.

Why?Why!
Why is God so unfair?Why do good people have no good rewards for a thousand years of disasters!
Xianggong has never done anything harmful to nature since he was born. However, even if he is an extremely personable minister, he is still plagued by bad luck, so that his house is restless and his relatives are separated.

……

Asking people to send Song Wei back to the room to rest, Wen Wan had to keep busy.

Seeing this, Zhao Xunyin felt distressed, "Wanwan, take a rest for a while, your mother is here, she will help you out."

Wen Wan forced a smile, "It's good to be busy, I don't have time to think so much."

"Where's Saburo?"

"He's too tired." Wen Wan said, "I'll send someone back to rest."

"You go too." Zhao Xunyin still persuaded, "Rush back from Ningzhou non-stop, the bench is not hot yet, you have to worry about your mother-in-law's funeral, your body can't bear it, listen to your mother, Go back and rest first, I helped Zhang Luo come over for such a big national funeral when your uncle was there, are you afraid that I can't handle your mother-in-law's well?"

Wen Wan shook her head, "Mother, I really can't rest, and the funeral is about to follow. You may not be able to recognize all the relatives in our family and colleagues who are good friends of Saburo. It's not good to omit it. Besides, I am this The head of the house, the mistress, ran to rest in the house at this time, and the servants saw it, and if they didn't say anything, they must have thoughts in their hearts, who would do their best to do things?"

Zhao Xunyin sighed, "Mother is worried that you will exhaust yourself."

"With you guys by my side, I'll be fine."

The mother and daughter were talking, when Erlang's wife's voice suddenly sounded at the gate of the courtyard, "Third siblings!"

Wen Wan turned her head, and saw Erlang's daughter-in-law running towards this side with a pale face, her hair in a messy bun, she probably just woke up and heard the bad news, and she couldn't wait to wash up and came towards this side.

"Second sister-in-law." Wen Wan's face was light.

"Third brothers and sisters, is it true that mother-in-law... is really gone?"

Wen Wan pointed to the white lantern under the corridor, intending to tell her that she wasn't lying, and said: "The mourning hall is in the outer courtyard, and the coffin hasn't been built yet. If you want to see your mother-in-law for the last time, there is still time."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) Erlang's daughter-in-law covered her face with her hands, crying tremblingly, "What face do I have to meet her after raising such a daughter who is not as good as a beast?"

When Erlang's daughter-in-law first entered the city, she fainted from crying because she was sad about Song Jiao's death, and she didn't wake up until just now.

She thought she could calm down a bit, but in reality, Dou Tou gave her a sap. The maid said that the old lady was so mad at the second girl.

At that moment, Erlang's daughter-in-law felt that the sky was falling.

She had resentment, hatred, and dissatisfaction with this mother-in-law, but in the end she admired her more.

Honorable and not arrogant, treat people calmly, not hypocritical, not sophisticated, not insidious, one is one and the other is two.

Although they never give good looks to anyone, as daughter-in-laws, they all know that the mother-in-law is cold-faced and warm-hearted. If something really happens, she will never stand idly by, otherwise the earthquake would not have allowed Sanlang to take their family away. The access to the capital, and even the merger of the two houses later, these are actually the manifestations of the old people's hope for a smooth family and a smooth business.

But Erfang failed her wish after all.

That little bastard Song Qi, why doesn't she die!
Wen Wan looked at Erlang's daughter-in-law crying into tears, with indifference on her face, "Now is not the time to be sad, such a big funeral is waiting to be arranged, waiting for the funeral, the coffin has to go back to the hometown, how to take the route, how to ask someone to send it, Along the way, how to persuade the inn to let Fuling people in for food and lodging, these are all issues to worry about, second sister-in-law, you should think about it first!"

"Yes!" Zhao Xunyin also said, "Dalang and his wife left early, and now that the old man is gone, it's just your two daughters-in-law who can't put everything on Wanwan's shoulders. You are a sister-in-law anyway, so you should take action no matter what. Get up and help her share the load."

After hearing this, Erlang's daughter-in-law gradually stopped crying, wiped her face and stood up, looking at Wen Wan, "What do you want me to do, the third sibling just orders, I will never be lazy."

"There are too many things for you to do." Wen Wan said: "After the funeral, guests will come to express their condolences one after another. The grades are different, so the tea you make for them and the cups you use are naturally different. Who are responsible for boiling water and making tea? People, where do the guests arrange to rest, who are the servants who serve the tea, how to increase or decrease the decorations in each room, you have to draw up a list and arrange in advance, otherwise the servants will run around like headless chickens , let people see what it looks like."

Erlang's daughter-in-law nodded, "I see."

Wen Wan saw that she was in a bit of trouble, and felt slightly annoyed, "I told you to learn to read and you didn't learn, but now that it's time for trouble, I can't help you take care of everything, go find the maid, the maid in your yard is literate Yes, let them carefully draw up a list, you can't read, but the servants can always recognize the names, she read, you arrange it, you must arrange it properly, otherwise if something goes wrong, I will only blame you."

Erlang's daughter-in-law was nodding her head when Ye Ling's voice came from the side, "Mother, let me arrange this matter!"

After the words fell, Ye Lingren quickly walked to Wen Wan's side.

Before staying in Hefeng Xiaozhu, she always felt uneasy, and was afraid that going out rashly would make her mother-in-law unhappy, but who would have thought that she had only stayed for more than an hour when the news of her mother-in-law's death came from Rong'an Hall.

Ye Ling couldn't sit still, so she came out in a hurry, first went to the outer courtyard to help decorate the mourning hall, and then came to Wen Wan when she was almost done.
