Chapter XVII: Burial
When a few people carried Qingniang out of the dog hole, Cai Wei was already waiting in the alley with the coachman. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When she saw Guo Xiaoxin and several people so laboriously lifting out a sheet to wrap a humanoid thing, she was immediately dumbfounded, pointed at Guo Xiaoxin and said, "Xiaoxin, you, you shouldn't be a murderer, right?" ā
Seeing that a few people did not speak, all of them looked solemn. Qu Caiwei wrinkled her little face, and there was already a cry in her voice, "Who?" Who did you kill, yes, is it Mother Liu next to my mother, she is not very good-looking, either she bullied you herself, or fanned the flames to let my mother bully you, but you won't kill her! ā
"Caiwei, what are you talking about?" Guo Tongxin couldn't cry or laugh.
The pothos felt even more funny, "Second Miss, our young lady is usually reluctant to step on an ant to death, how can she kill someone." ā
Cai Wei was still not at ease, and pointed to the sheets, "Then, what is it on this?" ā
didn't have time to explain to her more, Guo Xiaoxin only said: "Get in the car first, let's find a place to bury people." Then he turned his head and lay on the opposite side of the dog hole, and said to Qu Suyi, who didn't crawl out: "Mother, go back quickly, if your aunt comes and asks, you can help us block it." ā
"Don't be careful!" Qu Suyi said again: "There is not even an adult, how can this be reassuring." ā
A few children carried Qingniang's body into the car, and Guo Xiaoxin said to the coachman, "Keep going east." Then he took out some pieces of silver and handed them to the coachman.
The coachman didn't ask much, and the horse's hooves "got it" and headed east.
Along the way, Guo Xiaoxin had no time to explain to Cai Wei everything that had just happened, of course, she hid the complicated life experience of the little boy, and only said that they went out to meet bandits.
Caiwei's full name is Qu Caiwei, and she is the second daughter of her uncle Qu Jiqian, and Guo Xiaoxin is one year old.
In Guo Tong's eyes, the Qu family is such a kind and good person. Since Guo Xiaoxin's mother and daughter came here, only Cai Wei has treated them sincerely, and she has never made it difficult. Not only that, but when Guo Tongxin's mother and daughter were having a bad time, Cai Wei was also helping in secret.
So this time, Guo Tongxin's first thought was Cai Wei. Let Cai Wei secretly rent a carriage outside, and then secretly go to the alley outside the dog cave, so that she will not be discovered by her aunt.
"I see." After Cai Wei had a clear expression, she tilted her head and blinked at the little boy, and then was stunned for a while, and said sincerely: "Sister Xiaoxin, he is so good-looking!" ā
Guo Xiaoxin pinched her little face and said with a smile: "We are also good-looking." ā
"Why!" Cai Wei replied shyly: "Although I don't look ugly, but compared with Sister Xiaoxin, it's really different." ā
For other people's praise, Guo Tongxin never took it to heart. She looked at Cai Wei, then at the little boy, and suddenly felt that the two of them were really different!
Cai Wei's eyes were shining, and she seemed to be watery as if she could speak; The little boy, on the other hand, was completely different, his eyes were cloudy and unfocused, and he didn't look like a child's eyes.
"Sister Xiaoxin, what's his name?" Cai Wei asked.
"I don't know what his name is, but I don't say anything when I ask him, or I can give him a name."
"Okay!" Cai Wei swept away the horror of sitting in the same car with the dead man just now, and looked at Guo Tongxin with some excitement, "What's your name?" ā
Guo Xiaoxin lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the dark curtain outside, and then turned back to look at the boy carefully, this child seemed to be back to more than ten years ago, Canaan sat beside her with a wooden expression, not talking, not crying, not laughing......
"It's just called Canaan, okay?"
"Canaan?" Cai Wei tasted it carefully for a while, and smiled, "Okay, also known as agarwood, is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine and a spice." ā
Guo Tongxin took the little boy's hand and said softly: "In the future, you will be called Canaan, okay?" ā
The boy remained unresponsive, staring at the carriage wall with vacant eyes, and not saying a word.
Xu is coachman was used to seeing this kind of thing that was often pulled out and buried in the compound, so he didn't ask where to go, so he drove the carriage directly to the vicinity of the mass grave, and after stopping the carriage, he asked loudly: "A few young ladies, is it okay here?" ā
Guo Tongxin lifted the curtain and looked at it, and said: "Let's find a quiet place, although there is no coffin, at least we have to dig a pit and bury it, and it can be regarded as being put into the ground, just throw it here casually, after all, I can't bear it." She glanced back at Canaan and said, "What's more, she is still a kind person to Canaan, although we can't bury her, but we can't be too perfunctory." ā
"Alright then!" The coachman did not hesitate, and drove on.
Guo Xiaoxin noticed that when she finished saying this, Canaan's eyes seemed to move, and that gaze swept over his face, and after a few seconds, it turned to a hollow state.
I don't know how long I walked forward, the coachman stopped the carriage again, "Miss, you can't go any further, if you enter the woods in front, I don't know if you will encounter any dangerous beasts, I think this place is good, the field of vision is wide, there are trees in front of you, and there is a stream in the back, it is also a quiet place." ā
Guo Xiaoxin didn't understand feng shui or something, and when he heard the coachman say this, he nodded and got out of the car.
The pothos took out the shovel and shovel prepared in advance, and everyone started digging together. When the coachman saw that this was a group of children, he did not stand idly by, and with his help, the pit was quickly dug.
Everyone carried Qingniang's body and put it in, and buried the soil solidly, which was considered complete.
Guo Xiaoxin pulled the sleeve of Laganan's shirt and asked softly: "Ganan, you go and kowtow to Qingniang, although you are a master and servant, there is no need to kowtow to her." But after all, she is your savior, and the nurse is also a mother, don't you say? ā
Canan didn't object, he knelt down very obediently, bent down and kowtowed three times, but still didn't say a word.
Guo Tongxin once again felt that this child was really a dumb person!
When she helped Canaan up, although she didn't kneel, the deceased was the greatest, and bowed according to modern customs: "Qingniang, you must have been too tired in your life, now you can sleep well here, I will take good care of Canan for you." It's a very simple place, but bear with it until one day Ganan grows up, or he may move you to a better place. ā
Here Guo Xiaoxin said something more, and the coachman over there was already urging him not to go back, I am afraid that the city gate will be closed.
A few people boarded the carriage again and returned to Yunhuang City, all the way Guo Xiaoxin told Cai Wei, telling her how to deal with her uncle's questioning after she went back, and she must not let her aunt know about Yunyun today.
Cai Wei's eyes flashed wide, and she nodded frequently, saying that she must be tight-lipped about this matter.
After arranging Caiwei's side, Guo Tongxin turned his gaze to Canaan. How on earth should I tell my aunt that she would agree to keep Canaan?
This is a tricky question.
