The next day, getting in the car, the car walked forward without hurry, Li Xiaonuan leaned on the pillow, looked at the book in his hand intently, and sat in the carriage at the end of winter with a slight restraint, not like the previous two days, lying recklessly and occupying most of the carriage.

After walking for seven or eight days, I entered the boundary of Guangde City, and at the end of winter I was slightly excited, describing the bustle and prosperity of Guangde City, but the group did not stay in Guangde City, and went straight through the bustling Guangde City.

When I moved into the inn, it was more than an hour later than usual, and Mrs. Li asked people to spread the word, and Gu Xiao and Li Xiaonuan's schoolwork was suspended for a day.

After eating, Mrs. Zhou took the maid and her mother-in-law to check the things that Steward Zhou bought from Guangde City in the courtyard, Gu Xiao, Li Xiaonuan, Gu Yunshan and Gu Yunhuan surrounded Mrs. Li and laughed.

Outside the window, the night was completely shrouded, and Grandma Sun came in in a little hurry, bent her knees with a smile, put it to Mrs. Li's ear, and said a few words in a low voice.

Old Madam Li gradually smiled, her face became solemn, she turned her head, her eyes swept over everyone gently, and she commanded in a gentle voice:

"It's getting late, and we have to go tomorrow, so let's go back and rest."

Li Xiaonuan glanced at Gu Yunshan out of the corner of his eyes, then stood up, and bent his knees to retreat.

"Xiao Er, wait a minute."

Old Madam Li stopped Gu Xiao, Li Xiaonuan lowered her eyes, followed the Gu family sisters, quietly withdrew, and followed the end of winter back to the room.

Old Madam Li watched Li Xiaonuan and the others come out of the house, helped Bilian to get off the bed, took Gu Xiao's hand, turned her head to look at Grandma Sun and commanded:

"You and Bilian just come and wait."

Mama Sun bent her knees and agreed, walked to the door and took the lantern to lead in front, Bilian gently supported Mrs. Li, and the group of four hurriedly walked to the front yard.

At the door of the front yard, Steward Zhou was carrying a small lantern, looking in with an anxious face, and saw Mrs. Li leading Gu Xiao out, so she hurriedly stepped forward and bent down to salute, while hurriedly guiding in front, she reported in a low voice:

"A quarter of an hour later, a total of two people, all wrapped their heads and faces, only said that they wanted to worship the master, and they didn't want to say a word, and the villain didn't dare to ask more, but now it's inside."

Mrs. Li let out a solemn "um", and the group quickly turned into the big garage in the east.

In the easternmost part of the big garage, in front of the heavy coffin of Lord Gu Zhiheng, three bright red dots flickered, wafting with a faint scent of sandalwood, and a man in black stood quietly and solemnly, looking at another black-clothed man who was half-kneeling in front of the coffin and silently incinerating the sacrifice.

The faint light of the fire shone on the dark clothes and the man's long, evenly proportioned, slowly turning fingers, revealing a warm but desolate desolation in the boundless darkness.

Gu Xiao only felt that his nose was sore, and tears dripped down.

Old Madam Li took Gu Xiao by the hand, stopped, waved her hand lightly and repelled Steward Zhou and the others, and looked at the two of them vigilantly and sadly.

When the two heard the movement, the person standing raised his head and looked at Mrs. Li and Gu Xiao, the black-clothed man who was half-kneeling in front of the coffin hurriedly shook the sacrificial text that was about to be burned in his hand, threw it on the ground, got up slowly, hesitated, walked to Mrs. Li and Gu Xiao, bowed down, and bowed to the end.

Old Madam Li gently signaled Gu Xiao, Gu Xiao knelt on the ground, kowtowed twice, the man in black hurriedly took a few steps forward, pulled up Gu Xiao, squatted down, his eyes were full of pity, looked at Gu Xiao carefully, reached out and stroked Gu Xiao's sideburns, sighed heavily, led him back to Old Madam Li, arched his hand, and said in a low voice:

"Old lady, you are polite in your late life, old lady, please mourn, Brother Gu Nian......"

The man in black choked suddenly, paused, and then let out a long sigh and whispered:

"Those who are pure are self-purifying, and justice is at ease in the hearts of the people! Old lady, please mourn! ”

Old Madam Li grabbed Gu Xiao's hand tightly, her body trembled slightly, her eyes were full of tears, but her eyes suddenly lit up, and she nodded heavily,

"Good, good! Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people! Thank you, my lord! ”

Gu Xiao's hand was pinched by Mrs. Li, she looked up at her grandmother who was trembling slightly, and opened her mouth, but she didn't dare to speak, so she had to grit her teeth and endure it.

The man in black looked at Mrs. Li with respect in his eyes, bowed respectfully to the ground, took two steps back, pulled up his hood, and turned around and left with the man in black who had been following behind.

Old Madam Li straightened her back, watched the two of them disappear into the darkness, stood for a long time, pulled Gu Xiao, slowly walked a few steps in front of the black coffin, stretched out her hand and gently patted Gu Zhiheng's coffin, and said in a low voice as if sad and happy:

"Heng'er, did you hear that? Justice is at ease in people's hearts, and justice ......"

Old Madam Li burst into tears, choked up and said:

"Feel at ease!"

Gu Xiao looked at the black coffin slightly timidly, then looked up at Old Madam Li, pursed his lips tightly, and didn't dare to speak.

Mrs. Li took out the handkerchief, wiped her tears, pulled Gu Xiao, turned around and walked out of the big garage, Mama Sun and Bilian hurriedly greeted her, Mrs. Li paused, and commanded Steward Zhou in a calm voice:

"Thank you for your hard work, be careful at night, and send people to watch everywhere."

Steward Zhou hurriedly bowed down and agreed, and Mrs. Li took Gu Xiao by the hand and returned to the inner courtyard with steady steps.

The next trip was much faster than before, and the group set off half an hour earlier every morning, and arrived at the inn in the evening until it was dark.

Because they were in a hurry on the road, Gu Xiao and Li Xiaonuan's schoolwork stopped first.

Everyone stayed in the shaking carriage for a longer time every day, and when they approached Yuezhou, Li Xiaonuan had already read a few books sent by Gu Xiao slowly.

The next day I was going to enter the boundary of Yuezhou, and I rested at the inn at night, and after eating, Mrs. Li sent Gu Xiao and a few other children to rest, and left Mrs. Zhou to discuss:

"I will be able to enter the Yuezhou border tomorrow, Xiao Nuan is just going back, her parents' coffin, it is not appropriate to follow us into Yuezhou, I thought, why don't you let people take her and the coffin tomorrow, and go back to Xiuzhou directly for burial, what do you see?"

"Just listen to my mother's arrangement."

Mrs. Zhou smiled and said gently, Mrs. Li nodded, sighed softly, and said in a low voice:

"Along the way, I saw that this kid was extremely smart, and he knew it in his heart, and he didn't look like a six-year-old child."

Mrs. Zhou smiled and nodded, admitting:

"Mother is very right, and I also pay attention to her, but after a few days, this child is very different in terms of manners and etiquette, but he is willing to work hard."

Old Madam Li smiled and nodded,

"You also see it this way, that's the best, I thought, let Grandma Sun go tomorrow, send her back to bury her parents, you pick a steady and courteous steward to follow, if her uncle and relatives are rare to be a good one, willing to take her in, if it's not good, it's better to take us over, in the future, it's just a dowry."

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly nodded and agreed,

"Mother said very much, this girl, thin and not explicit, small hands and feet, is a blessed one."

Mrs. Zhou said, laughing softly, and continued:

"Isn't this girl blessed to be loved by her mother like this?!"
