The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 244 Mourning

"What? Princess Shu died, died?"

Xiao Nan continued confinement in the East Wing, and just after drinking a bowl of thick crucian carp soup, he heard Polygonatum came to report in a hurry.

"Yes, the Prince of Shu's Mansion sent someone to report the funeral, saying that at the second quarter of the second day of the first lunar month (around 14:30), the princess has gone."

Yu Zhu's tone was rather heavy, Princess Shu is Xiao Nan's double relative, whether it is the relationship between her husband's cousin or her mother's aunt, she must mourn for Shu's death.

"Didn't you say you were fine when you gave the New Year's gift in front of you, why did you go away suddenly?"

Xiao Nan and Cui Zhi are not close, but at least they are relatives.Even if they are not relatives, but ordinary people they know, they will feel sorry for each other when they first hear that Fang Fang died young.

"Back to Princess, in fact, during the twelfth lunar month of last year, Princess Shu's situation was not very good. In order not to worry the old lady, she specially ordered the gift giver to come back and tell her that everything is fine."

Yuzhu also served as Xiao Nan's housekeeper for a while, and he was able to talk to those close relatives of Rongshou Hall and the lady in charge of his old friend's house, so he was able to hear a lot of news.

Hearing Yuzhu mention the old lady, Xiao Nan remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "Does the old lady know? Is she okay now?"

Yu Zhu nodded, "The old lady already knew, she originally discussed with Siniang about Erlang Jun's (referring to Changsheng) three banquets, after hearing the news, the old lady was stunned for a while, and then asked the person who reported the news, Wangfei, when Those who have gone, how the prince and the little county master are doing now, etc. The servant girl is listening, the voice of the old lady is trembling, and the hand holding the Buddhist beads is also a little unsteady."

As she said that, Yuzhu asked worriedly: "Princess, do you want to invite the old lady to the imperial physician, and by the way, invite the gentleman back?"

Xiao Nan thought for a while, and to be honest, she had quite confidence in the tenacity of the old lady's heart. Although Cui Zhi was brought up by the old lady's grand-nephew, her feelings were definitely deeper than other young ladies of the Cui family, but the old man lived a life of ups and downs. , I have gone through all the storms and waves, and I will never fall ill because of the death of the younger generation.

However, you can only think about this in your heart, and you must never say it.

Xiao Nan nodded, "Well, you are very thoughtful. The old madam has grown up, and life and death are the most distasteful things. You immediately sent someone to take my post to invite the imperial physician. Then invite Lang Jun back."

It's the Chinese New Year now, and the civil servants of the Tang Dynasty also have their annual leave. Cui Youbo is busy these two days paying New Year's greetings to relatives and friends.

Early this morning, Cui Youbo took a ox cart of gifts to the Princess Mansion to pay New Year greetings to the Eldest Princess and Concubine Xiao.

Now that there is a funeral at home, even though he is the cousin in the next room, according to the imperial court's mourning system, Uncle Cui still has to serve Cui Zhi as a 'minor merit' for five months.

Besides, Cui Zhi is still the concubine of Shu, and she is also a relative of the Eldest Princess. When she died, the royal family members like the Eldest Princess would also go to pay their respects.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Nan added: "In addition, there is a mourning at home, you can make arrangements to replace the lanterns, curtains and other things in the house with clean ones... Don't be too extravagant in the three feasts of Changsheng, only our own People can watch the ceremony. Also, did the old lady say when she would go to the Shu Palace to pay her respects?"

Cui Zhi's parents are both in Jinyang. As her natal family, the Cui family should go to Shu Palace immediately.

The old lady has a high seniority and is getting old, so it should be the eldest lady or the Wang family who will represent the Cui family. Who will go depends on the arrangement of the old lady and the old husband.

"The old lady has ordered people to invite the old husband and the husband, and they should discuss it in the main hall now..."

Just as he was talking, a little maid outside the door came to report, and Yuzan went to inquire in person.

Not long after, Yuzan came back and said: "The old lady has already sent a message, saying that the eldest lady, the eldest lady, and the sixth young lady will go to the palace now. The princess will be buried tomorrow. Go. Princess, you are still in confinement, so you don't need to go. As for Erlang's three banquets, the old lady said that it will go on normally, but there will be no big banquets for guests. Only people from Rongshou Hall and Princess Mansion will come to watch the ceremony. "

It was similar to what I thought, and Xiao Nan didn't have any opinions.

After Cui Youbo was called back, he went to Rongkang Hall according to the old lady's order, and helped him for a long time, and he didn't come back until evening.

As soon as he got back to the Weirui Courtyard, he washed his face and hands first, changed into a clean home robe after washing, and then went to the east wing to see his wife and children.

In the house, Chang Sheng's wet nurse, Qin Shi, had just finished feeding Chang Sheng, and was walking around the house with him in her arms, when she saw Uncle Cui coming in, she quickly curtsied.

"How is Xiao Langjun today?"

Cui Youbo rubbed his hands and face, and after making sure that there was no cold on his body, he clapped his hands: "Give it to me, I'll hug him."

Mrs. Qin carefully handed the longevity to Uncle Cui, and said: "When you come back to Mr. Lang, Mr. Mr. Xiao has a good appetite. I fed him three times. He also slept soundly. At noon, he played with the young lady for a while. "

"Oh, we Changsheng are so smart, it's only been a few days, and we know how to play with sister?"

Cui Youbo had been discussing the funeral outside for a long time, and his mood was depressed. Now seeing his son's big, pure eyes, his mood suddenly calmed down.He lowered his head and kissed the little guy's chubby face, and then spoke to the little baby who didn't understand anything.

Cui Lingxi was acting like a baby with Xiao Nan in the East Wing, when she suddenly heard Cui Youbo's voice, she quickly turned over and climbed down from the kang.

Fang was so frightened that she hurried forward to help her.

However, Lingxi's little friend's skills are really vigorous, but a little over one year old can slide down from the kang smoothly. As soon as her little feet wearing tiger-toed shoes touched the ground, she didn't stop, and walked quickly. With two short legs, he rushed towards the door.

"Aye, Aye, hug!"

Cui Lingxi threw herself on Cui Youbo's lap, her two chubby arms tightly hugging his calf, looking up at her white and round face, she asked her father in a childish voice.

"Hey, Aye's Ning Xin'er, Aye will hug you right now!"

Putting the baby in his right hand, Cui Youbo reached out with his left hand, and hugged his chubby daughter in his arms.

"Aye, dear!"

Since the first year of life, Lingxi has more and more vocabulary in his mouth. From the beginning, he could only speak one word, but now he can utter three words clearly. Sometimes when the mood comes, he can speak a complete sentence intermittently.

Like her parents, Lingxi gave Cui Youbo a kiss, and Cui Youbo was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth.

Qin Shi and Fang Shi were terrified when they saw it, they stood cautiously beside Cui Youbo, their hands were vain, lest Cui Youbo's joy would turn into sadness, and it would be bad for Cui Youbo to shake his hands when he was too happy, and it would be bad for him to throw his little master down.

"Kiss, Aye also kisses Ayuan."

Cui Youbo laughed happily, and followed his daughter's example, kissing Lingxi 'hardly'.

"Brother, brother!"

After Lingxi finished kissing with Aye, he looked up and saw the little baby occupying the arms of his father's other half.

Lingxi was quite curious about this red and wrinkled little monkey at first, but later she heard Xiao Nan repeatedly tell her that it was 'Adi'. Although she didn't know what Adi was, she would get used to it when she saw Changsheng. Call out these two words.

"Oh, Ah Yuan is so good. That's right, this is your brother. You have to take good care of him in the future. When he grows up, he will also protect A Yuan."

Seeing his daughter being so close to his son, Cui Youbo felt even better. He carried the two children and walked into the inner room of the east wing.

"Lang Jun, you are back, everything has been discussed properly?!"

Xiao Nan half-lyed on the big kang by the south window, with a hidden pouch on the back of her waist, when she saw Cui Youbo coming in, she smiled and asked softly.

"Well, the second uncle is not in the capital, and the elder sister's funeral is handled by the uncle and father. When I came, the elder aunt and the others had already returned, saying that everything was settled at the elder sister's place, and they just waited for tomorrow's funeral."

Fu brought up this heavy topic again, and the smile on Cui Youbo's face faded instantly. He put the two children on the big kang, dragged a moon-like baby to sit in front of the kang, and whispered the matter discussed in Rongkang Hall. Tell Xiao Nan everything.

Compared with Xiao Nan, Uncle Cui has a deeper affection for this eldest sister. Although he and Cui Zhi are very different in age, there are still images of elder sister coaxing him to play and teaching him to read in his mind when he was young.

Cui Zhi didn't pass away by accident, she had been sick for a long time, and death was only a matter of one day sooner or later.

However, when the news of the funeral came, Uncle Cui still felt it was sudden. His memory was still stuck in the beauty of Cui Zhi when his second uncle returned to his natal home. He couldn't imagine that his beautiful and dignified elder sister would leave so early.

Cui Youbo had just realized the importance of family and family when his cousin passed away, which made him very sad.

"Lang Jun, don't be sad. My sister has gone, and I feel sad too. Last time I went to see her, although she was thin, she was in good spirits. I didn't expect..."

Xiao Nan patted the back of Uncle Cui's hand, comforted him softly, and then said apologetically, "It's a pity that I just gave birth now, so I can't personally send my sister off for the last time."

When Cui Youbo heard Xiao Nan mention this, he suddenly remembered something, hesitantly said: "There is one more thing, I, I want to talk to my lady."

Xiao Nan knew what Cui Youbo wanted to say, she raised her hand to interrupt him, and said softly: "Your lord needless to say, I understand, once my sister goes, we will be mourners, and it is really inappropriate to have a big feast... Longevity After three banquets, let's close the door and do it ourselves."

Cui Youbo looked down at his son who was twisting his head to avoid Lingxi's harassment, and said apologetically, "We have been wronged and lived forever."

Hearing Cui Youbo's grievance, Xiao Nan deliberately smiled and said: "He is still young, so there is no grievance, sister is his elder, and it is what he should do to do his best for the elder."

The husband and wife were talking when Yuzhu hurried in.

"What happened again?"

Xiao Nan frowned slightly, she had a bad premonition.

Yuzhu looked at Uncle Cui, bit her lower lip lightly, and returned with difficulty: "Mr. Lang, lady, the Thanksgiving Temple sent someone to report, saying, saying that Sanniang is gone."

Xiao Nan was taken aback for a moment, then realized that Yuzhu was referring to Cui Wei, and couldn't help but sigh: What is she going to do?Could it be that when she heard that Cui Zhi had died, she wanted to go to the Shu Palace to express her feelings, and then fulfill her 'wild wish' of marrying into the Palace?
