The red and white events are the most solemn among the people. Red refers to marriage, white refers to funeral, but it is ten miles different from customs, and the white etiquette is very cumbersome.

Regardless of the dissuasion of his relatives, since the old man of the Li family moved back to the old house, Li Qingping has been kneeling in front of the bed and accompanying his father.

One is not willing to let his father pass away, and the other is to send his father to his death.

According to the old custom, when the life of the elderly is dying, children and other immediate family members must stay by the old man's side and listen to his last words until the old man dies, which is called sending off the end. Failing to send the old man to his death is known as a great regret in life.

Raising a child to the end, human affection.

All night, everyone in the Li family, including Chu Feng, didn't sleep well. There was almost a small movement, and everyone was awakened.

finally survived until the next morning, and early, Wen Shuzhi got up and went to cook some millet porridge for the old man in person.

After boiling the millet porridge for more than an hour, Wen Shuzhi brought a lukewarm small bowl of rice porridge to the old man.

"Qingping, you can also go to the side to eat something. Only when you have the strength to take care of the old man? ”

Holding a spoon and carefully feeding the elderly, Wen Shuzhi gently admonished her husband beside her.

On the side, Li Shulei also brought food to her father and let her father eat.

After not closing his eyes all night, Li Qingping's eyes were bloodshot, his hair was a little messy, and his stubble had grown.

He tiredly took the rice porridge handed by his daughter, took it aside and chewed it slowly, but his eyes did not take a trace off his father.

Old man Li Chu was groggy all night, sleeping and waking up, waking up and sleeping, and I don't know how long he slept.

Seeing the fading light in the house, the old man knew that it was dawn.

Carefully fed by his daughter-in-law and granddaughter, the old man tried his best to open his somewhat dizzy old eyes and look around.

After not eating a few bites of hot rice, the old man could no longer eat, and the water of the meal ran down the corners of his mouth. Wen Shuzhi on the side hurriedly wiped the rice stains on the corners of the old man's mouth with a tissue, and then gently put the old man down gently.

When he took care of the old man, he saw his old man's eyes roll, and his fingers trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something. Wen Shuzhi hurriedly called her husband Li Qingping to rush to the front.

"Dad, what else do you have to explain? You say, "We're all by your side." ”

Seeing that his father had been calm all night, he looked a little anxious at this time and wanted to explain things. Afraid that the old man would not be able to hear himself clearly, Li Qingping hurriedly leaned forward and said loudly.

Since the old man was moved to the main hall last night, the servants of the Li family and other people who are not surnamed Li have never set foot in this room again.

According to ancient customs, when the elderly are dying, outsiders will avoid it, and if they participate in the end, they must wear filial piety, and they can only leave after the funeral is done.

So at this moment, in the main hall of the old mansion, there is only Chu Feng with a foreign surname.

The old man lying there didn't know if he was emotional, or if he was feeling better. His eyes rolled, his face glowed red, and he was even excited to hold the hand of his son and daughter-in-law and force himself to stand up and sit up......

Seeing the old man like this, Chu Feng felt sad and wanted to turn around and leave, but he forced himself to stop and looked at the old man of the Li family with tears in his eyes.

"Study...... IOU, bring it! ”

Seeing that the old man was a little excited, he pulled their sleeves and forced himself to sit up, lest the old man be emotional and have an accident.

After listening to the old man's words, Li Qingping nodded busily.

"Dad! I know, I know, I'm going to get it. You're waiting for me......"

The old man's study is only the most familiar to him, and when he spit out these words at this time, Li Qingping had already guessed what his old man meant, and immediately replied in a loud voice, and ran quickly towards his father's study.

After a while, there was the sound of doors banging and turning over cabinets outside the house, and with the sound of hurried footsteps, Li Qingping gasped and ran back grabbing a large handful of bills and IOUs.

"Burn...... Go up in flames. ”

Seeing that his son brought these things, the old man Li Chu was relieved in his eyes, and then pointed to the brazier in the house with trembling fingers, and muttered softly.

Chu Feng lowered his head and ran quickly with tears in his eyes, and took the IOUs in Li Qingping's hand.

Gently pushed Li Qingping and asked him to accompany the old man, Chu Feng took these things and walked to the brazier, and put one after another IOUs that others owed to Li Chu's old man into the brazier and burned them.

Or nearly a million dollars, or hundreds of thousands, or tens of thousands of dollars, large and small debts. The earliest decades ago, the latest nearly a year or two. IOUs, dates by date, as if the old man Li Chu had lived in his life.

Seeing Chu Feng's eyes with eyes, he turned his head in a daze and saw the red light on his father's face, Li Qingping collapsed to the ground, kneeling in front of the old man's collapse......

Vaguely, when he saw the old man looking at him, there was a smile of appreciation in his eyes.

Vaguely, when I saw the old man closing his eyes, his eyes swept over the faces of the relatives around him.

In the end, the old man's eyes stopped on his children and grandchildren in front of the bed, slowly closed his eyes, and passed away peacefully......

As if the last glimmer of fire was extinguished, man had fallen asleep for a long time.

There was a brief dead silence, and a cry shook the sky.

In the old house of the Li family, the door is pasted with white paper to cover the door god, and the gods worshiped at home are also covered. Ancestral tablets, put away one by one.

On the table in front of the old man's head, the offerings that had already been prepared were placed one by one. The children of the Li family wear linen and filial piety, and their grandchildren wear filial piety.

The freshly extinguished brazier rekindled the flames, and the old pot burned with fire paper, only before the old man went out of the funeral.

Outside the door of the old house, firecrackers were set off to tell the gods and ghosts of heaven and earth.

In the old house of the Li family, the crying of children and grandchildren shook the sky, and the neighbors knew that the old man of the Li family had died......

With the old man Li going to the fairy, the funeral was done one by one.

Old-fashioned etiquette, there must be no mistakes.

First, we can't let the dead not rest in peace, and second, we can't let outsiders laugh at the Li family for not knowing etiquette in matters of etiquette.

The subsequent funeral report, because of the preparations earlier, the old man Li Qi, who endured the grief, presided over the operation of the size of his brother's funeral.

The old house of the Li family was dyed with white paper, and the entire ancient town knew about the old man of the Li family.

Following the funeral of the Li family, the whole ancient town was like a boiling oil pot, and the sound of firecrackers sounded one after another. For a time, the ancient town was full of smoke and gunpowder.

In the ancient town, several old and respected old men came to the door one after another. One is to visit the Li family, and the other is to operate the funeral of Mr. Li.

As the only remaining elder of the Li family, Li Qi is extremely worried about everything, and he also does some things that require him as an elder to come forward.

Since he was going to hold a big funeral for his brother, he naturally needed to discuss it with the old people in the town.

The choice of the cemetery, the funeral route, the matter of carrying the hall, the full helper of the village banquet, etc., all need the help of the surrounding neighbors.

This is also the custom of the old town, but whenever the neighbors and villagers encounter red and white things, all those who have friendships will walk around to help each other.

Worried about these things, Li Qi also asked his son to contact Mr. Feng Shui, as well as the monk and Taoist priest who practiced the business, so that his brother could rest in peace. While enjoying the peace of the underworld, it can protect the happiness and health of the future generations of the living.

Other things such as longevity coffins and longevity clothes, which have been prepared at home for a long time, at this time, just wait for the elder brother to cleanse himself, and then change into these clean clothes.

Chu Feng is not part of the Li family, but he was still close to the old man when he was dying. Therefore, after thinking about it, the Li family also wore filial piety for Chu Feng, and asked Chu Feng to be busy with the old man's funeral before leaving the Li family.

Chu Feng, who had already had this intention, naturally did not open his mouth to excuse himself.

Looking at the Li family's sorrow, they were busy before and after. Chu Feng wanted to help everyone, but he could only do some things to entertain guests with cigarettes, wine, and tea.

There are some things that others can't help even if they want to substitute for help. After all, there are some things that need to be done by blood relatives.

After thinking about it again and again, Chu Feng quietly came to Wen Shuzhi and discussed some things with the aunt who was closest to the Li family.

"Auntie, I want to go over the scriptures in private for the old man. I see that Uncle Li has been keeping a vigil and has nothing to do, so I want to say hello to you. ”

Borrowing Wen Shuzhi out of the main hall, Chu Feng pulled her aside and said in a low voice.

Wen Shuzhi, who was busy and anxious, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she heard Chu Feng's words.

The family has already discussed the matter of inviting Mr. Feng Shui and the eminent monk and Taoist priest to come to the house to do things, why would Chu Feng mention this stubble in private?

Knowing that Chu Feng's medical skills are powerful, and knowing that Chu Feng's child can't talk nonsense, Wen Shuzhi thought for a while and looked at Chu Feng and said: "It's hard for you to have a heart for this child, since you want to pray for the old man, then it's up to you to do it." However, it is better for you to avoid everyone and go back to your room to do these things in private. Auntie knows that your child is kind, but some things are courtesy. ”

There are a lot of things, and Wen Shuzhi doesn't have much time to talk to Chu Feng in detail for a while, so she will go to busy her own affairs after Wen Yan's advice.

Looking at the figure of the Li family's aunt hurrying away, Chu Feng sighed lightly.

The old man of the Li family has good luck in the mourning hall, and these signs of fortune come from all directions in the town.

This is the old man Jide I, the cause and effect of the blessings enjoyed at this time.

If it is used properly, not only will the old man enjoy the underworld, but also protect the future generations of the Li family. But if these good fortunes are forcibly robbed of the karmic results by people with sinister intentions, then the old man will not talk about the yin world, and it will also affect the fortune of the entire Li family.

This is the reason why Chu Feng wants to go over the scriptures for the old man.

The old man was very good to him, and Chu Feng naturally would not let the old man not be at peace after he passed away.
