Chapter 285: Crying and Mourning
"My aunt is gone?!!! Li Shuning was really taken aback when she heard Wang wipe her tears and tell the news, and subconsciously asked, "What did my cousin do?"
Wang misunderstood Li Shuning's meaning, and even nodded and said, "Isn't it, for the sake of your cousin, your aunt can even give up her life!" After speaking, he began to wipe away tears.
Li Shuning secretly screamed "Happy", and accidentally said what was in her heart, fortunately her mother didn't hear what she meant, otherwise she would have nagged herself to death! But hearing Wang's words, Li Shuning was even more confused, since it wasn't Wang Wenshao's obsession, and she was so mad about the dead ladyboy that she even killed her own mother, so why didn't her aunt?
Looking at the Wang family who was crying sadly, Li Shuning thought about it, pulled over Caifeng, who was standing beside her and shed tears, and asked in a low voice, "Tell me what's going on?"
Caifeng whispered all of Cai Ping's words to Li Shuning.
After hearing this, Li Shuning's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but sigh: "The old fox is the old fox, my uncle is really a character! No wonder after four dynasties, not to mention, the official is getting bigger and bigger!" She has never been a mother, so she naturally can't understand the Min family's willingness to sacrifice her life in order to keep Wang Wenshao's limbs sound, but she only thinks that with a son like Wang Wenshao, the Min family is a blood mold that has fallen for eight lifetimes!
"Mother, don't cry too. A room full of people are wiping their tears, Li Shuning, who has not had a single tear, is very out of place, she has a strong temperament and does not cry easily, plus she doesn't have much affection for Min's aunt, who has only met a few times, she really can't cry, in order to appear less embarrassed, she has to divert Wang's attention, "My aunt is newly mourned, the house must be busy, our family lives close, instead of being sad here, it is better to go to my uncle's house earlier to help a few cousins-in-law take care of the funeral, which is also our heart." ”
"You're saying that I was negligent. The Wang family wiped away his tears with a handkerchief, and instructed Cai Ping, "You go back first, tell your family and Mrs., and I'll be there in a while." ”
Cai Ping thanked the master and bowed to leave. Wang refreshed himself under the service of a group of maids and servants, changed into a dark dark stone blue robe, removed the golden hairpin on his head, and only wore two silver hairpins with longevity patterns, and even the ear rings were replaced with a water longevity pattern silver fungus.
However, Li Shuning is used to being pure, and she goes in and out of the barracks all day long, basically dressed in men's clothes with a high ponytail and hanging a sword at her waist, Wang has nagged her many times for this, but she has been in her left ear and in her right ear, and she has not changed her teachings, and she still does her own thing, and even Chang'an City has set off a wave of "men's clothing style", from the daughters of princes and nobles to the girls of ordinary people's families, they all follow the trend and wear men's clothes. In the face of such a general trend, the Wang family compromised, and it was not bad to treat himself as having an extra son.
Today, Li Shuning was also dressed as usual, and she planned to accompany the Wang family to the barracks after breakfast, but since she knew that her aunt was newly mourned, she couldn't go to the barracks. Hungry, after the Wang family finished dressing up, the mother and daughter simply had some snacks together, and then went out to the Yue Guo Mansion.
The carriage drove on the wide streets of Chang'an City for less than half an hour before stopping in front of the Yue Guo Mansion. Li Shuning rolled up the curtain with her hand, and a dazzling white suddenly crashed into Wang's eyes, which made her cry involuntarily.
When Li Shuning saw this posture, she secretly scolded herself, "Cheap hands!" and hurriedly went to persuade Wang, "Mother, don't cry, let's go first to put incense on my aunt." With that, he went to help the Wang family.
The mother and daughter got out of the carriage, and the servant woman who had already welcomed the guests from the Yue Guo Mansion stepped forward and led the two into the mansion all the way to the mourning hall.
Wang's tears have not stopped since he got out of the carriage, and when he saw the Min tablet placed on the mourning hall, his tears fell even more fiercely. cried fiercely in front of Min Shiling, Li Shuning persuaded her to dry her mouth and still didn't persuade her, and finally simply didn't say anything, just took a handkerchief to wipe her tears. After Wang finished crying and calmed down, the mother and daughter gave incense to Min according to the etiquette.
Although the Wang family came to help in his heart, how could the wife of the prince Yan really work for this aunt? After she finished the incense, she went to the flower hall with her younger sister Han to have tea.
Wang was tired of crying, and forgot for a moment that she was actually here to help and not to make trouble, so Han and Li Shuning helped her to the flower hall.
Han personally served Wang's face and makeup, and then held a cup of hot tea for her, "Auntie, please mourn." "She is introverted, not good at words, and she is not familiar with the Wang family, so it is really embarrassing to get along.
Fortunately, Wang was not in the mood to socialize with her at this time, and he cried so much that his mouth was dry, and he took the teacup and poured a few sips before he came to his senses. Li Shuning took advantage of Wang's stunned moment, pulled Han Shi, and asked in a low voice: "Second cousin-in-law, how is the seventh cousin now?" I didn't see Wang Wenshao in the mourning hall, my uncle even accompanied him in order to protect his son, and my uncle was sad and angry, and he wouldn't do anything to him for his uncle's sake, but why didn't he see him keeping a wake for his aunt?
Although Han is a concubine's daughter-in-law, but Min treats her generously, Han is born in a scholarly family, knowledgeable and reasonable, not the careful eye love to care, so the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is still good, married into the Wang family for ten years, and Min is not the same mother and daughter but also has some feelings. The Min family left like this, the Han family was somewhat sad, listening to Li Shuning ask about Wang Wenshao, the initiator of this matter, with a little complaint in sadness, "The seventh brother was locked in the cellar by the master, and hundreds of people were sent to guard him inside and out, and he was also instructed to only send a glass of water a day, and he could only give him a meal in three days." Several brothers pleaded, so that he could finish his wife's last journey, and called the master to scold, and no one dared to squeak anymore. Although he is a little ruthless, the seventh brother is really too ignorant, and he was protected by his wife in the past, this time...... I just hope that he will understand his wife's hard work, and stop doing any more ridiculous things!"
"Uncle...... What are you going to do with your cousin? You won't be locked up like this for the rest of your life?" Li Shuning felt a little guilty in her heart, counting that her aunt Min's death still had something to do with her, if she hadn't pressed too hard, her uncle wouldn't have to break her cousin's leg, and her aunt wouldn't have lost her life. Now my aunt is gone, my cousin ...... If he can figure it out and stop wearing a pair of pants with a dead ladyboy, there is no need to hold on to it, after all, they are all relatives.
Han frowned slightly, and said with some concern: "Although the master didn't say it explicitly, but this time, I'm afraid he won't spare the seventh brother." "She has been married for so many years, and it is the first time she has seen her father-in-law's gloomy and terrible face, and she doesn't know what kind of fate will be waiting for her seventh brother after her mother-in-law's funeral?
