Chapter 299: All parents in the world

On the second day, Wu Cuihua died of a sudden death. She could not stay at home for too long.

The coffin was kept in the courtyard for only one more day, and the funeral was carried out early on the third day.

Jiayin and Mao Geer also wore sackcloth and mourning. Jiaan and Jiaxi carried them on their backs respectively. Jiahuan held Li Geer's hand all the way to the tomb.

 Burn paper, kowtow, and bury the deceased in the soil.

One thing after another was done according to the rules, and Wu Cuihua was completely isolated from the world.

No matter whether we were good or bad during our lifetime, no matter how much we were happy or sad, the curtain came to an end just like this with a handful of letter soil.

The Li family removed the memorial shed and held a banquet in the yard to thank many relatives, friends and fellow villagers.

After the banquet was cleared, the Li family returned to calm, as if it were the same as before.

Jiaren simply packed a set of clothes and went into the city with Mr. Wen.

Jiayin quietly ran out of the house on her chubby legs and insisted on giving two ingots of silver to her eldest brother, who had lost a lot of weight.

She was afraid that her eldest brother would not want it, so she persuaded her in a low voice, "I also gave it to the third brother. The third brother said he would buy me gems."

Jiaren laughed when he heard this and hugged his sister tightly. He wanted to say something, but tears flowed out again. In the end, he only said, "Fu Niu, be good. Brother will come back and buy you something delicious."

 The carriage kicked away, leaving the good news behind with a gentle sigh.

Mrs. Cui came out from next door and saw the little fat girl with a sad face. She couldn't help but smile and hugged her.

“You’re such a young kid, how do you know you’re worried? Come on, go into the house, my aunt will sew a new skirt for you!”

The older one and the younger one entered the house. The old lady and Zhao Yuru were also discussing making needlework. Brother Li took an embroidery booklet and was teaching his younger brother how to identify patterns.

The old lady pulled Mrs. Cui to sit down, and Mrs. Cui opened the package in her hand.

"Auntie, I have nothing to do these days. I took Sister-in-law Qiong to sew a set of plain clothes for Brother Li, Maogeer and Fu Niu, and let the children try them on to see what size they like."

The old lady quickly thanked you, "Jinrou, thank you so much. These three children usually wear bright colors. It's really difficult at this time. I barely found one set and couldn't replace it. Yuru and I were also in the same mood. I need to sew quickly!”

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "Auntie also knows that I can't do anything with cooking. I can't help much these days, so I have been doing needlework."

Zhao Yuru shook out her new clothes and compared them with the children. She praised, "This needlework is really good. It is much more detailed than Hongying and I."

Brother Li and Brother Mao also thanked her, and Jiayin even hugged Mrs. Cui's neck and gave her a big kiss, which made everyone laugh, and the room finally became a little livelier than before.

 Children are the most sensitive. Only when elders have smiles on their faces can they dare to be more lively.

                                              nie Cat changed into new clothes and pants, and was walking happily up and down on the kang.

On the other hand, Brother Li is studying in the academy. He has learned good manners and his movements are somewhat stable.

The valley started welcoming guests on the sixth day of the lunar month. Because the Li family had a funeral, they couldn't take care of it these days. Sister-in-law Liu and others took care of it.

 Just after finishing their work today, Li Lao Er, Li Lao San and Tao Hongying all left.

 But they still thought about home, and walked around the valley. When they saw that there was nothing important, they hurried home.

As soon as they entered the yard, they heard the laughter of the children in the house and the energetic voice of the old lady. The three of them breathed a long sigh of relief...Three days passed in a flash. Mr. Wen was going to court, and Jiaren himself Hire a carriage and come back from the city.

I don’t know what method Mr. Wen used to persuade him. Jiaren’s expression became much calmer. When he saw grandma, he knelt down and kowtowed, “Grandma, I’m worrying you. Your grandson is back!”

 “Okay, okay!” The old lady patted her eldest grandson and saw that there was really no sadness in his eyes, and she was completely relieved.

"Tomorrow your mother will burn her head for seven days, and then she will stay for two more days to pack up her things. Then you can go back to Luo'an and burn her head for seven days before coming back. It's close to both sides. Let your fourth uncle drive the car to pick you up."

"Okay, I listen to grandma." Jiaren nodded, hesitated, and then said to grandma when there was no one around him, "Grandma, if your family has enough money, can you buy a small yard in the city?"

The old lady took her eldest grandson to sit down and asked, "The family does not lack this little money, but can you tell me why we want to buy a yard?"

Jiaren said, "I want to buy a yard and lend it to the teacher to live in. The Wen family is very... strict with the teacher, forcing the teacher to marry a woman he doesn't like, and the woman's family and the emperor are not of the same mind. The teacher persuades the family to stay away from court battles , but the elders in the family did not listen and are now in a stalemate.

"The teacher took me back the day before yesterday, but I was blocked from the door. The teacher rented a small courtyard. Maybe the Wen family had tampered with it. The landlord will take the house back in the next few days. I don't want to see the teacher living on the street. He is I am a poor censor and don't have much salary to live in an inn..."

The old lady frowned when she heard this, "Although all parents in the world are bad, how can the Wen family force their children like this?"

After she finished speaking, she went to open the box and took out a thousand taels of silver notes for her grandson.

"Tomorrow you will burn Tou Qi, and the day after tomorrow you can go to the city with your father and buy a small courtyard. It will be convenient for Mr. Wen to live in for the time being. In the future, you can take exams and make friends, and you will also have a place to stay in the city. , and also, the property deed will be directly in your name!”

Jiaren wanted to say something else, but the old lady waved her hand.

"Don't worry, my family will not worry about it. When your brothers grow up, they will have to build a yard for them. Our family is so small, so you won't get married and have children, so you can all crowd here."

At this time, Brother Li, Brother Mao and Jiayin had already ran in from outside, followed by Mr. Hou who was walking slowly.

“Grandma, is eldest brother back?” the children started shouting before they even entered the door.

“I’m back! I’m here!” Jiaren squatted down, hugged his brothers and sisters with a smile, and then took out the snacks bought in the city, such as candy man and candied haws, to make them smile.

He wanted to salute the Marquis, but the Marquis waved his hand and simply asked about what was happening in the city.

 The Lantern Festival is coming soon, and every household begins to prepare lanterns, and lantern markets are set up on shopping streets. Everyone is looking forward to watching the excitement.

Hearing the good news, his eyes lit up, and he quickly climbed to sit next to the Marquis.

Before she could say anything, the Marquis laughed and said, "Want to see the lanterns?"

Jiayin nodded heavily and bared her little white teeth in a smile, "Well, well! Fu Niu hasn't seen the lanterns yet!"

“Then let’s go with the whole family. We’ll stay at the Marquis Mansion for the night. We’ll take Jiaren and Brother Li to the academy and then come back.”

Master Hou agreed simply, causing the eavesdropping Brother Cat to cheer, and even Brother Li laughed.

But the old lady said, "We have filial piety at home, so we can't go to the Marquis' Mansion. But in the past few days, my family has to buy a small courtyard in the city, so we can stay there for a few days."

The Marquis wanted to persuade him, but he heard rapid footsteps coming from outside.

Ye Shan strode into the door, saluted briefly, and reported in a low voice, "Master Marquis, the war in Jiangbei has begun, and the barbarians are coming fiercely!"
