Chapter 215 Advancing and Retreating in the Wind I
Chen Suqing walked out of the small courtyard and walked to the front hall, only to see black veils hanging high everywhere, hanging low, and servants coming and going in a hurry, respectful and solemn. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThe whole Mei house is very quiet, but there is not much sadness.
Chen Suqing walked through the huge mansion of the Mei family, and found the mourning hall in the direction of people coming and going, only to see that there were two classes of monks invited outside, and they were overdue. A lot of green smoke and incense poured out of it.
Chen Suqing looked inside, only to see that there were many people surrounded by black pressure inside, Mei Yiyun knelt in front of the spirit and bowed his head to wipe his tears, Li Bigui was sitting on a chair in filial piety clothes, and Mei Yichen was standing behind him.
Everyone was talking, but when they saw Chen Suqing coming in, they all looked at her together, and the hall was silent for a while. Mei Yichen was a little surprised to see Chen Suqing, but Li Bigui was calm, and just said lightly: "Are you here? ā
Among the people standing in the hall, there was a white-haired old man who said to Li Bigui: "This is the girl of the Chen family?"
Li Bigui said lightly: "Yes, it's my sister's niece." ā
The old man looked Chen Suqing up and down, then sat down opposite Li Bigui and said: "I'll just say it directly, I can't complain about the old decay and the doubts in the hearts of the people in the clan, Shi Yao's death is not clear, and this girl's identity is also special, so we can't forget it like this." ā
Li Bigui said lightly: "Uncle clan, I have already explained the cause of Shi Yao's death to the clan, how can I say that it is not clear?"
The old man snorted and said, "You said that he was killed by a strong man, but what about this strong man? Where did he go, and we have been peaceful here for generations, and there has never been a strong man, why did your niece come here, and a strong man came here?"
Chen Suqing probably understood this, it seems that these people who came are all relatives of the Mei Shiyao clan, and they live here, and at this moment, they are mobilizing people to find Li Bigui to explain the law. Hearing that the spearhead was pointed at him, Chen Suqing couldn't help frowning slightly, and moved to Li Bigui's side.
Li Bigui's face did not change, and asked the old man, "What does Uncle Yi mean?"
The old man poked the crutch on the ground and said, "How Shi Yao died, we must find out, and we can't let him die in vain, and the revenge must also be avenged." ā
Li Bigui snorted, pointed to the coffin, and sneered: "Shi Yao's body is there, you have to check, even if you check, you want revenge, and you can do whatever you want." ā
At this time, a middle-aged man walked out from behind and said, "What are you talking about, isn't the eldest brother your husband?" As he spoke, he pointed at Mei Yichen and said, "Yichen, can you not avenge the murder of your husband?"
When Li Bigui heard this, she stood up and said, "You also know that Shi Yao is my husband and Chen'er's father? Then let me ask you, who are you?
The old man who spoke before saw that Li Bigui was angry, and hurriedly persuaded: "Hey, we don't mean that either, it's just that everyone knows this, the current situation of the Chen family is not ordinary, will this strong man be chasing the Chen family's girl?"
Li Bigui smiled, sat down on the chair again, and said, "What is it, what is it?"
When the old man heard this, he cleared his throat slightly, and said, "Shi Yao is the head of our Mei family, if it is really because of the Chen family's affairs, then the Chen family must give us an explanation." ā
Li Bigui's eyes glanced slightly, and said, "How do you explain?"
The old man groaned for a while, and before he could speak, the middle-aged man behind him immediately shouted, "Anyway, our eldest brother can't die in vain." ā
Immediately after that, the people behind also shouted, "Yes, you can't die in vain anyway!"
Seeing this, Li Bigui gritted her teeth, and then slapped the tables at hand, and shouted: "Shut up! Our family is not dead yet!" Her voice came from the internal force, which was not ordinary and comparable, and it shocked everyone in the hall for a while, and they were silent.
Li Bigui paced slowly in the hall and said, "Shi Yao can't die in vain, naturally there are widows and orphans to take revenge, why do you have the Chen family in your words? What do you want them to do?"
The old man of the Mei family said again: "That's not what I said, Shi Yao died for her after all......"
Li Bigui interrupted him sharply and said, "Who told you that Shi Yao died for her, we don't know, but you know it very clearly.....
The old man was choked by this sentence, and was speechless, and hurriedly said, "What do you mean by saying this?"
Li Bigui waved his hand and said: "Then I'll say something interesting, Shi Yao has spent a lot of money for the clan to build a monument for the clan for so many years, but fortunately, the old and young in the clan love him and give him a little bit of thin noodles, I can also understand your mood at this time." ā
As soon as these few words were said, the people of the Mei family looked at each other, their faces were a little red, and they hung their heads slightly.
Li Bigui said again: "Shi Yao unfortunately died, we should fulfill his reputation, if we are stirring up, it will ruin his name as a husband." Why should you involve others and burden them with injustice?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Mei Yichen again, and sighed softly: "As for all the things in the clan, if you are willing, our family will come forward from Chen'er in the future, if you don't want to, we can also guard the door and no longer interfere in the affairs of the clan." ā
When everyone heard what he said, they all felt the meaning, and their faces eased slightly, and the old man smiled: "Yichen is an outstanding talent, and he is the best in this generation, so it is naturally best for him to come forward in the future affairs of the clan." As soon as his voice fell, everyone around him quickly nodded in agreement.
Li Bigui nodded, stood up, saluted everyone, and said, "All uncles know the righteousness, and I am grateful. Since all of us in the Mei family are united, we must also speak with one voice and one heart in the future, and unanimously treat those who have bad intentions on the rivers and lakes. There are also various matters related to Shi Yao's funeral, and I would like to ask for your help. ā
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly returned the salute and said yes again and again.
Chen Suqing saw that the mourning hall turned around in a few words, and she didn't know what it was like for a while, she saw that Li Bigui was fearless in the face of strong storms and rains, and she was full of confidence when she spoke. I also thought that I had no brothers to rely on, and I had no hope to rely on, and I had a divine sword name, which was just the root of trouble. caused himself and his sister to drift around, lonely.
Seeing that everyone no longer had any opinions, Li Bigui asked the servants at home to invite the family members to go down to have tea and dinner first, and then said to Mei Yichen: "Mother is a little unwell, you take a look at the front first, and I will go to the back hall to rest for a while." ā
Mei Yichen bowed down to answer, and Li Bigui beckoned to Chen Suqing, and left the mourning hall with her and went to the bedroom.
