reborn child bride

Chapter 304: Gathering (2)
Shen Ji wondered whether Manager Hong had found the old housekeeper.The old man's death was expected, but earlier than they thought.Moreover, her feelings for this old man are very complicated. He has never thought highly of himself, and he has no choice but to recognize himself as his eldest grandson-in-law, and he has only met him a few times.So it is really impossible for her to empathize with Wei Bo and Uncle Fifteen's grief at this time.Her affection for the old man is not as deep as that for the queen mother.However, I have to admire his old man, who divided up the family business early, so as to prevent the children and grandchildren from starting to divide the family property before the bones are cold.Based on the method used by the second room at the beginning, the reaction of each room must have been very intense.

If the scene of the goldfish bowl happened after he left, Erfang would definitely not be able to escape so easily.If it doesn't hurt, just return Tan Mo's property and it's over.The so-called confiscation of all due family property is nothing to Erfang.

Now, most of the house heads remember his good, presiding over the fair share of what they deserve.The cost of the funeral is also reserved, and there is no need for each family to share it, so when Wei Bo cried like this just now, there were not a few people who cried sadly with him.Especially Uncle Fifteen cried the most sincerely.And Shen Ji still felt a little bit resentful to the old man, it was the mother-in-law's business.Wei Ying was always talking about who his mother was, didn't the old man know who he was, so he couldn't save her at that time.In that way, even if someone can frame him, he can still be imprisoned in the family temple for life, and at least his life is saved.

Shen Ji really wanted to know the truth back then, she didn't think her mother-in-law could be killed just for the sake of making money.But now, she can only kneel here obediently.The daughter-in-laws of this generation are currently only her, the Song family, and the Lin family.Shen Ji looked forward and saw little Quan'er next to Aunt Fifteen, his chin was pointed.Xiao Quan'er found that Shen Ji was looking at him, so he also looked at him, with some doubts in his eyes.After staring at Shen Ji for a while, as if remembering, his eyes lit up.It seemed like he wanted to laugh, then he remembered something and hurried back, looking at the special bitterness.

Fortunately, the chanting has come to an end, and everyone can get up and relax.

Shen Ji asked Aunt Fifteen why she needs to be here all the time, Aunt Fifteen complained and glanced at Uncle Fifteen over there.Xiao Quan'er stretched out his hand to hold Shen Ji's hand, "Sister-in-law, where is big brother?"

"He and I don't come from the same place, and he's still on his way home." Shen Ji asked Aunt Fifteen in a low voice, "Does it have to be like this every day?"

"It was like this a few days ago, but now it's just an hour a day, and that's it for today. It's just that we need to take turns to watch the spirit at night, but they are all men. I'm sorry that you and the fourth sister-in-law just got home and can't breathe."

There were so many people in the mourning hall, it was not convenient for Shen Ji to ask more questions.Wei Bo still knelt there and refused to get up. He still wanted to continue the vigil tonight, and the fourth aunt was very distressed.

On such a day, the servants of each family came out to help and entertain the guests, and everyone who was crying naturally had a big meal.Shen Ji had been on the road for eight full days, and when he came back, he knelt and cried for a long time, and now he just wanted to lie down and lie down.Thinking that although most of the servants were assigned to work, Wan Cui would always leave something for her to eat, so she took a few bites at will before leaving the table.

Fourth Aunt called her to stop and asked her to deliver some food to Wei Bo.Shen Ji was taken aback, how could it be her turn to do this.There are so many servants in the family, so many brothers.Why do you ask her to be the sister-in-law to deliver meals to her uncle?

The fourth aunt smiled wryly, "That kid, besides the elder nephew, only listens to you. At least try to persuade him to eat some."

Shen Ji nodded in agreement, went out with the food box and handed it to Liu Zhu who was waiting outside, and then went to the mourning hall.At this moment, all the white and miserable lanterns have been hung up, and the light shining into the mourning hall looks a bit miserable and gloomy.

Dozens of monks, big and small, also went out to eat the fast meal prepared by Mr. Song.Only Wei Bo was kneeling there, and there were a few servants who were in charge of adding joss sticks.

"Sixth brother, eat!" Shen Ji put four dishes and one soup on the table, went to call Wei Bo, and stuffed ivory chopsticks into his hands.

"Sister-in-law, I can't eat it!"

"You are unfilial!" Shen Ji stuffed the chopsticks into his hands.

Wei Bo raised his head, "Yes, my grandfather loved me very much since I was a child, but I have been stranded in Beijing, and I have not been able to come back to see his old man for the last time."

"I'm not talking about this." Shen Ji was still a little timid about the environment, so he glanced at the coffin and said, "Grandfather will be very happy if you can pass the Jinshi exam. What I'm talking about is that you're self-abuse now, or in front of his old man In front of him, is it that he can't go there with peace of mind even after he dies?"

"Sister-in-law, I..."

"I haven't finished yet, so don't interrupt."

"Yes."

"There are also four uncles and four aunts. They are all busy now, especially the fourth aunt. She is also getting old. She just handed over today. There are already many things to worry about. Now I have to worry about you not eating. The three of us came back all the way, maybe you can bear it. But let me tell you, I am in pain all over now, as if I have been run over by a car. I don’t think my fourth aunt will feel better than me. You I'm already twenty, and my parents traveled thousands of miles to Beijing because of my recklessness before, so now I can't let them worry about it?"

Wei Bo's face turned blue and white after being told.Shen Ji really felt that he was a little unconscious, and felt that his fourth aunt was too spoiled with him.Compared with Wei Ying, he, the sixth master who never cares about other things, is so happy.When Wei Ying was looking at the brochures in the book market with the eyes of others, he was well-clothed and well-fed with red sleeves to add fragrance to his studies. , he receives pocket money of five taels of silver every month and dislikes all kinds of dishes...

"If you don't want to faint tonight and be carried back to your parents, you should eat quickly, then go back to rest and come to watch the spirit. There are so many people from the wooden generation, and there are so many uncles on top of them, there is no shortage of you tonight." One person." Shen Ji couldn't be bothered to persuade him anymore, and walked out with a wave of his hand.This gloomy place was fine in broad daylight, but when it was so deserted at night, she was a little scared.

"Sister-in-law, there are lanterns here. I'll ask a few servants to take you home." Wei Bo stood up and took the food box to the side to eat, with a bit of shame on his face, probably stimulated by the words sent by Shen.

Shen Ji nodded, it's good to be strong and courageous with a servant.

After returning, Wan Cui bought a pot of noodles for Shen Ji.Shen Ji, Liu Zhu and the others served their bowls and ate.As soon as they changed their mourning clothes, they all went to their respective places to cry or observe mourning.The big pot meal at night is a bit tasteless.It's much more comfortable to eat some soft noodles now.

Shen Ji picked up the shiitake mushrooms and chicken in the bowl and ate them, "Where did you get them?" The people from Lixiangyuan were also conscripted to work, and the small kitchen was clean and cold.Originally, she was tired and planned to get someone to heat up the fire and wash with hot water before falling asleep.Starting tomorrow, she will also help my fourth aunt greet guests.Although the second wife is still helping today, but tomorrow it will be thrown to them.The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the second room only take up the job of managing the kitchen.Shen Ji didn't know if the second wife connived at her daughter-in-law to make money for her husband's family for the last time, was she also trying to cover up that the second wife still had private property.However, she didn't really care about that matter, the key was the matter of that year, the truth about her mother-in-law's death in vain.If this revenge cannot be avenged, Wei Ying will have to go crazy.
