The third master, Zhang Shunhui, served as a servant in the court, was busy with the cumbersome imperial examination, and did not return home for more than two months. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info heard the bad news of An Le Gong and was allowed to go back to the house to take care of the funeral.

The emperor drafted another decree and announced that Zhang Shunzhong, the second master of the Anle Mansion, and his father and son would return to Beijing as soon as possible.

Zhang Shunhui invited the master of Tianlong Temple to choose an auspicious day to send the spirit to mourn. On the day of the funeral, the princes and nobles came to the funeral, demonstrating the accumulation of virtue and goodness on the day of peace and fairness.

The funeral procession didn't go far, and then saw the plain shed in front of it, and the drums were singing in unison. Its Dongyue Wangfu, Xishan County King, Nanning County King, and Beisun County King all set up sacrificial tents on the roadside.

Among the four kings, the king of Nanning is the highest, and Zhao Lin, the king of Nanning, thought of being a brother on the Anle Fair Day, so he did not regard himself as a throne, not only went to the Anle Mansion to mourn in person, but also ordered people to solemnly set up a shed on the side of the road. Others are just looking ahead, not to mention.

The funeral procession stopped and stopped, and it took two hours to arrive at the gate of Lingshan Tianlong Temple. Tianlong Temple received the emperor's dictation, and all the Taoist elders waited early to welcome the coffin. After all the Taoist elders had done their homework and finished their memorials, they buried the coffin of An Le Gong in the pine forest behind Lingshan, which was closely adjacent to the cemetery of the royal family.

The funeral dragged on for more than half a month, and the atmosphere in the house was always hot, cold and deserted, without the noise and laughter of the past.

As the saying goes, illness comes like a mountain. Mrs. Tai was already sick and sick, and the pain of losing her son this time was like taking half of her life. The asthma was violently opened, and the cough continued at night, and the imperial doctor came a few times to no avail. Zhang Shunzhong and Zhang Shunhui are also filial sons, and they are undressed and serve in front of the couch day and night. The two of them held it carefully, lest this lady could not stand it......

After about half a month, Mrs. Tai's spirit was much better, and her face was a little red. After drinking throat ointment all day, the asthma gradually subsided. There was a look of relief on the faces of the people in the house.

On this day, Mrs. Tai carefully cleaned up, wearing a brown shirt with orange bat double patterns, her hair was meticulously brushed, shiny, and she wore a set of grape purple wipes on her forehead. It seems that the whole person is full of heroic energy.

Mrs. Tai sat on the large open chair in the hall, looking cold and introverted.

The two rows of densely packed juniors below are also sitting in danger, not squinting.

The whole hall was so quiet that people were restrained.

Mrs. Tai stiffened her face and was silent for a long time, and then she opened Chrysostom, breaking the solemn silence.

"Today, I called the children to gather together, and it was the old body that announced something." After a pause, his eyes swept around the crowd, "Old lady, I have been the master of the house for nearly forty years. In the past, I have been through ups and downs, but now that I see my children and grandchildren getting ahead, I feel comforted. ”

The hall echoed with Mrs. Tai's loud words, and everyone held their breath, secretly figuring out the meaning of Mrs. Tai's words. The hearts of quick-witted people are active, and some hidden thoughts surface like blisters, ready to move.

Mrs. Tai seemed to deliberately want to leave them a time to think, slowly sipped a few sips of tea, and said slowly, "The age is not forgiving. The old body is more than enough but not enough, so I want to be a family member. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Tai's eyes were blazing, and she looked at the people sitting down in turn, and said word by word, "Can you agree?" ”

The people in the courtyard of the deep house all know the stakes, and they are all in the same mind, thinking that Zuo is just choosing from the three-room daughter-in-law. The big house is sick all the year round, and the rest is only the second and third rooms.

I saw the second old man Zhang Shun standing upright, the pestle was there with a strong figure, his face was purple and red, and his voice was like a bell, which shook people's eardrums and buzzed. He said, "Mother is in her old age, she should have the joy of family, and the children do not want their mother to work too hard, and the children must obey their mother's wishes." ”

"Hmm. Well, it's a good son of the old body. Mrs. Tai nodded in approval.

The second old man Zhang Shunzhong sat down calmly, the third old man Zhang Shunhui's personality is somewhat similar to An Legong's, his temperament is elegant, and he does not let people feel the overwhelming pressure of Zhang Shunzhong, he stood up, and said in a gentle and respectful tone, "Mother is old and frail, and the son should solve problems for the mother, and the son is willing to obey the mother's wishes." ”

"Good. It's all good, worthy of being the son of our Anle Hou family, standing up to the sky, benevolence, righteousness and filial piety. Mrs. Tai was full of praise.

After the third master sat down, Mrs. Tai smiled on her face and said, "The second lady is spicy and capable, and she is a person who cares about her family; The third lady is cautious and a person who knows how to calculate. The old body likes it very much. ”

The expressions of the second lady Wen and the third lady Fei were very different, and I saw that although Wen tried her best to stretch her face, the upturned eyebrows, corners of her eyes, and the corners of her lips all revealed her complacency; Fei's pretty face was still subconsciously tightened, and his expression was as usual, but his heart was already full of rich peony flowers. She was even completely sure that Mrs. Tai would hand over the right to be in charge of the house to her. Her pretty chin lifted triumphantly. She glanced at Wen and said disdainfully, just that piece of wood, good things in her hands, will also become a potato, Mrs. Tai only praised her twice, and her hands and feet were excited and didn't know where to put it, without the slightest demeanor of Anle Mansion.

The two of them secretly slandered each other, as if only such a comparison could improve themselves.

The hall was surprisingly quiet, so quiet that you could count the breath of others. Everyone clenched their little hearts with boiling meridians, for fear of jumping out in excitement.

Mrs. Tai seemed to have seen through everyone's ghost thoughts, she smiled slightly, and said slowly, "The old body has decided that Sister Xia will be the head of this family." With that, he looked at the people below

It can't be a hallucination, right? The children and grandchildren all thought that something was wrong with their ears, and they blinked in disbelief and looked at each other. Accidentally! Absolutely unexpected!

No one expected that the old lady would throw such a real bag of explosives after going around for a long time.

After a long time, I don't know who gasped and hissed unabashedly, and everyone woke up, and suddenly their blood was boiling and the crowd was excited. The sharp eyes swept over Zhang Yuxia's pink little face frequently, and Zhang Yuxia's heart was frightened and at a loss. She once thought that she had lost her mind and heard the wrong thing, but the eyes of everyone clearly told her that it was not an illusion!

Why did Mrs. Tai give her power? She was confused.

It's not just her who is confused, except for Mrs. Tai, I'm afraid no one can interpret it.

What is cunning? I'm afraid that's the realm.

"Mother, are you sure you want Sister Xia to be in charge?" The second master, Zhang Shunzhong, had no choice but to fight bravely again, but this time his expression was stiff and stiff, and he completely lost the impassioned just now.

The third master, Zhang Shunhui, couldn't sit still, and his tone was filled with deep doubts and mixed with complaints, "My son shouldn't be arrogant in front of his mother, but Sister Xia is just a little girl who hasn't opened her head yet, this really can't convince the public, right?" ”

"Yes, I will marry a wife in the future, why is my mother so troubled!" Don't look at the Wen family and Fei's fierce battle on weekdays, seeing that the wind is not in the right direction, they immediately formed an alliance to form a united front, and the two echoed in unison. After that, he glanced at Zhang Yuxia with hatred and hatred again, and the innocent Zhang Yuxia immediately became the target of everyone, and the little heart had already been hit into potholes and shattered.

"How do you arrange that?" Mrs. Tai was not in a hurry, and took a sip of tea.

Silence, like a brief silence before a storm.

Fei quietly twisted the back of Zhang Shunhui's hand, Zhang Shunhui was in pain and had a bad seizure, turned his head to see his wife look at him vigorously, and then realized that he realized it later. Zhang Shunhui said softly, "If my mother wants to choose as a family member, it is naturally a long-term consideration, and one person can be selected from the daughter-in-law to work for her. ”
