Thinking about it this way, Diao Ranran didn't plan to hide it.

She directly told Bai Nuowei that the reason why she was in a hurry to find Diao Chengxi was to inform him that her father-in-law had passed away today. It stands to reason that as an in-law, he needs to be present in person on the day of the funeral.

Obviously, Bai Novi was very surprised, and did not expect that she would get such an answer when she asked.

"It's not surprising, he was also in the advanced stage of lung cancer, but it was a month earlier and a month later, and the family was mentally prepared. ”

Diao Ranran's tone was light, she felt that she didn't need to show too much grief in front of an irrelevant person.

"Then I'll help you contact your father and see if he can come back as much as he can. On this kind of occasion, he should indeed attend, otherwise, people will say that your mother's family is not sensible. ”

Bai Novi was also informed and polite, and took the initiative to say a word.

Putting down the phone, Diao Ranran called Diao Chengxi again, but it was still turned off. She was so angry that she threw her phone aside, never looked at it again, and silently complained about him from head to toe in her heart.

Zhan Xingchuan took a shower and walked out to change into black clothes.

He hesitated, not wanting Diao Ranran to go back to the Zhan family mansion with him, but on this occasion, as a daughter-in-law, it was unreasonable for her not to appear.

Who knows, she has already packed up, put all the daily necessities she needs to use in a small bag, hold it in her hand, and can set off at any time.

"You're always like this, I don't even know if I should feel sorry for you or blame you. ”

Zhan Xingchuan shook his head, with a helpless expression, walked over, and took the things from Diao Ranran's hand, "Let's go." ”

She immediately grabbed his arm and walked out with him.

When the two returned to the mansion, Uncle He had already summoned more than a dozen workers to set up the mourning hall. The extra furniture and furnishings were all moved out, and everyone specially freed up a large space of 100 square meters to make a mourning hall, and when relatives and friends came to say goodbye, it was more spacious, and it was also convenient for immediate family members to kneel here to thank and greet as gifts.

Seeing Zhan Xingchuan, Uncle He walked quickly, but his footsteps seemed to be a little vain.

"The mourning hall is almost ready. It's a pity that people nowadays are not as particular as in the past, if this is in our countryside, the spiritual shed should be built into a 'one hall and one roll', the backyard is high, the front yard is low, and the front and back are wrapped in mat foil inside and out......"

Uncle He muttered in a low voice, shaking his head as he spoke, tears falling from his eyes, obviously thinking that modern city people are too ignorant of these customs, and many things are not grand enough and regular.

Seeing this, Diao Ranran hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Uncle He's hand, and said comfortingly: "Uncle He, I understand your feelings. However, time has changed, the times have changed, and many things have slowly changed. No matter what, our hearts for our parents as children will not change, we young people don't know much about these etiquette, and we don't know who to ask, so Uncle He has to worry a lot, and you also have to pay attention to your body. ”

Hearing her say this, Uncle He hurriedly wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, his face was a little flattered, and he nodded again and again: "I know, I know." I'm just an old man, and I talk a lot, so don't take it to heart......"

With that, he immediately went back to work.

Zhao Bo also stood aside, wearing reading glasses, checking the names of relatives and friends one by one according to the list. Zhan Liyang traveled extensively during his lifetime, and suddenly he died, and many friends couldn't even accept it, so of course they had to rush to see him off for the last time. Therefore, on the list of condolences to the guests, there are more than 100 people from all walks of life, all of whom are some figures with heads and faces, and they cannot be neglected.

Originally, these things should have been done by Zhan Xingchuan and Diao Ranran, but considering various reasons, these old servants of the Zhan family took the initiative to do it, and they just wanted to give Zhan Liyang a beautiful funeral.

In addition, there are also professional white affairs one-stop staff to come to the war house and take care of various matters.

"There are so many things I don't understand, and no one has told me. ”

Seeing the people in the family coming in and out, everyone was busy, Diao Ranran said with some anxiety.

Zhan Xingchuan glanced at her and took a deep breath: "I don't understand either, just follow the rules the old man said, let's do whatever we want." ”

He cried quietly once in front of Diao Ranran before, but now he has calmed down, perhaps, in the eyes of outsiders, they will feel that this son is very unfilial, his father is gone, he didn't even shed a tear, I really don't know whether he is strong or ruthless.

Fortunately, as long as you are willing to spend money, there will be someone to take care of every red and white matter.

In addition, there is a domestic maid to assist, and everything is going on in an orderly manner.

On the day of the condolences, many people came.

Zhan Xingchuan and his wife, as well as some of the immediate family members of the Zhan family have been present, wearing linen and filial piety, in the order of relatives and respect, the family sacrifices first, and the outsiders sacrifice later.

"Don't worry, since he said he would come, he would definitely come. ”

Seeing his wife's worries, Zhan Xingchuan took the time to walk to Diao Ranran's side and said softly.

She nodded, and could only believe Diao Chengxi.

Since she learned the news of Zhan Liyang's death, she has been persistently calling his mobile phone, and then finally dialed through, told Diao Chengxi the news, and asked him to rush back as much as possible, and he also promised to come down, saying that he would definitely arrive and send his in-laws on the last journey.

However, until now, Diao Chengxi has not appeared, and I don't know if he wants to break his promise again.

"Probably not, but there are too many cars here today, I guess, it's stuck in traffic. Fortunately, I greeted the traffic team in advance and asked them to help guide it, otherwise, hundreds of cars would be stuck in the road, and maybe not one person would be able to get in. ”

As an only son, Zhan Xingchuan's role today was extremely important, and after saying this, he left in a hurry again, and he had to go to receive other guests.

According to the rules of the past, filial sons and daughters-in-law need to wear linen and filial piety from beginning to end, and kneel beside the spirit case to accompany the sacrifice. However, now that Diao Ranran is pregnant, considering that kneeling for a long time is not good for her, Zhan Xingchuan took it upon himself to exempt her from this rule, and he simply stopped kneeling, but just bowed to the elders as a thank you, simplifying the complex.

After another group of people, Diao Chengxi finally arrived, fortunately, it was not too late.

Zhan Xingchuan was really right, his car was stuck in traffic. In the morning, too many people went to the Zhanjia to mourn, those who came a little earlier, saluted, and saw their families, and then left, and those who came a little later were still on the way. As a result, the two-way road was suddenly jammed, and all of them were all kinds of famous cars, like a famous car exhibition.

Although it is winter, in the past few months, Diao Chengxi, who has been slightly blessed, has a layer of sweat on his forehead, wearing a black suit, and wearing thick thermal underwear inside the suit.

Seeing his appearance, Diao Ranran breathed a sigh of relief, but when she looked at it and saw that there was a woman beside Diao Chengxi, she couldn't help but immediately frown fiercely, and her face became extremely ugly.

Bai Novi was wearing a black suit, flesh-colored silk stockings, a pair of black high heels, and a black beret on his head, standing slimly beside Diao Chengxi, holding him with one hand, standing side by side with him.

In this case, she can still appear, which almost explains her status.

Although the people present were all here to see off Zhan Liyang, the appearance of Diao Chengxi and Bai Nuowei still inadvertently attracted the attention of many people. Their expressions had already explained a qiē, and some even couldn't hold back and whispered.

Diao Ranran was hindered by his identity and occasion, so he couldn't rush over directly and drive the woman out on the spot.

She could only endure it, seeing Diao Chengxi and Bai Nuowei walk forward together, first give gift money, then bow, offer flowers, burn a few pieces of paper money, and then talk in a low voice with several elders of the Zhan family for a while, and the two sides saluted each other.

Zhan Xingchuan saluted his father-in-law and said softly, "Dad, thank you for coming." I thank you for my parents, it's been too busy along the way, let's go to the next door to rest for a while, I'll arrange the room for you. Ran Ran hasn't seen you for a long time, you father and daughter will chat for a while, and stay for dinner together in the evening. ”

Hearing him say this, Diao Chengxi couldn't shirk it, patted him on the shoulder, comforted him a few words, and walked to the side.

Diao Ranran also walked towards him, but she glanced at Bai Nuowei, who was following Diao Chengxi, and only felt like a fish in her throat, very unhappy.

Looking at his daughter in filial piety clothes, Diao Chengxi sighed slightly, as if he didn't expect that not long after she passed the door, Zhan Liyang actually died, and he had just heard that Wang Jingshu had an accident and is still lying in the hospital.

"Hey, Ran Ran......"

He sighed half-truthfully, as if he wanted to comfort her, but he couldn't say anything.

"It's not convenient to talk here, let's go next door, there's no one over there. ”

Diao Ranran pointed to the room next to her, motioning for him to come with her, seeing Bai Nuowei hesitating in place, hesitating, as if she didn't know whether to follow or not, she snorted and said coldly: "Come over too, how long will you have to stand outside, isn't it a shame?"

Bai Nuowei's face tightened, probably because she was a little embarrassed, but she had no other way but to keep up.

The three of them entered the room together, which was originally intended for some relatives and friends who needed to rest temporarily, so it was very clean, and there were teapots, teacups, fruit pastries and the like on the table.

However, Diao Ranran had no desire to entertain them.

After she stood firm, she looked at Diao Chengxi steadily, lowered her voice with a displeased face, and asked in a low voice: "What kind of occasion is this? Why did you bring her with you? Are you intent on embarrassing me? The people outside are all Zhan family members, old and young, what do you let them think of me in the future?"
