Since the turmoil of saying goodbye to Lian Shouren, the old house and the martial brothers have completely broken off contact. Occasionally mentioning these two people, the Zhou family was indispensable to scold, even the old man did not follow the scolding, but every time he hung his head and sighed, he never made any comments on the behavior of the martial brothers.

Even the old man has an ancient style in dealing with people, and he believes that a gentleman will never make a bad noise. This kind of thought, even the old man once made it clear to several sons, including Lian Shouxin.

Now, even the old man is gone, and the martial brothers come to worship, thinking of the past, even the step-ancestors saw it and didn't let them enter the door, which is reasonable.

"Just that time, they all alarmed Lizheng, and they were also frightened, and they didn't dare to come to the door again. This time the old man is gone, they kneel at the gate and cry, this is the conscience has been discovered, or is it playing with the eyes of the heart. Zhang frowned.

"What the old man treats them, anyone who has eyes can see it. But they have been left and right, and they have no kindness. If you really have a conscience, you don't have to wait until now. Let them cry and kowtow in front of the old man's spirit, the old man may be able to stand it, he can't stand it. Besides, let them in the door and lift them up according to their humanity. They don't deserve it! "Even keep your word.

When Wu Jiaxing heard this, he turned around and went out. After a while, he walked back again.

"The two of them just didn't leave, just let people drag them away, as soon as they let go, the two of them came back with a roll, or knelt at the door and cried and howled, saying that they had recognized relatives with the old man, and the old man was good to them, and they all understood in their hearts that because of poverty, they made mistakes in the past, and now they regret it in their hearts." Wu Jiaxing told everyone, "I said I was going to kowtow to the old man." confessed, and carried the old man up the mountain. The two also said that if they were not allowed to enter the door, they would have been kneeling at the door. ”

"Because of the two of them, there are a lot of people gathered at the door." Wu Jiaxing thought about it and said again.

Wu Yuchang and Wu Yugui also walked in from outside and discussed the matter of the martial brothers with Lian Shouxin.

"If they are truly repentant, let them come in and kowtow. But are they like that, when the old man was alive, he didn't fall for the two of them. Now it's gone, and let them come up and fool the old man. That's not going to work. Lian Shouxin said what he thought in his heart.

"That's a good point, these two boys are really not good people." Wu Yugui nodded and said, "After the last thing." Their reputation is completely stinking, and no one in the village has taken care of them for a long time. When they went out of the house, they saw that people had to slip away, and their lives were worse day by day. ”

"I guess this time I heard that the old man is gone. The two of them want to let the big guy see it like this, they also have a conscience, they know that they have repented, and they want to save their image, so that the big guy can be nice to them. Life will be better in the future. ”

"Hey, just that bit of cleverness, it's all used in the crooked ways of the evil sect." Wu Yuchang also said. Obviously, he also agrees with Wu Yugui's opinion, "Many people can see it, but some people have other ideas......"

As for what other ideas it was, Wu Yuchang didn't say it explicitly, but the big guys understood.

"What else to think. I can guess the difference. Lian Shouxin said, "It just looks like they are very pious." It's pitiful, I just want to come in and kowtow to the old man, but we don't let it, it's because we are hard-hearted and don't spare people. ”

The human heart is the most complex, and gossip is also the most difficult to prohibit.

"Otherwise, let the two of them come in and kowtow to the old man. With the old man's temperament, he should be willing to do this. Someone else said.

"This matter, let them enter the door, let's not say it." Lian Man'er thought about it for a while, and then said, "You have to ask my milk." ”

Everyone looked at Lian Man'er, and if they asked Zhou, everyone could guess what the result would be.

"This matter, the old lady is really the most qualified to speak." Wu Yuchang and Wu Yugui both said.

The martial brothers are going to come to worship, and if they are even trustworthy, maybe everyone will have some discussions. But if Zhou speaks, even Man'er can guarantee that those people will be silenced immediately.

What kind of temperament and temperament the Zhou family is, almost everyone in the eight villages now knows it.

Things in the world are sometimes so subtle. For example, if the same thing is done by a wicked person, everyone may not say anything, but if it is a person who is bent on good and does the same thing, there will definitely be many people who will come out and find faults.

Because even the identity of the trustworthy is here, he wants face, so no matter what he does, someone will come out to accuse, saying that what he did was wrong, that he didn't do enough, and so on. But if you change to Zhou, you will do it more excessively, and no one will say it.

The human heart is delicate, and even Man'er can't fully explain it, but she feels that there are inevitably some thoughts of deceiving good and fearing evil.

Specific to the brothers Wu Ergou and Wu Sangou, the Zhou family, as the surviving person, is now coming out with a stick and beating the Wu brothers, and no one can say anything.

Of course, such a thing can only be done by Zhou.

There are some taboos in red and white things, and the most taboo is unevenness. The martial brothers dared to come back and kneel there after being dragged away, relying on the filial sons of the Lian family not to be rude to them.

Even Man'er didn't plan to do anything to these two people at this time, the reason was simple, it wasn't worth it.

Wu Yuchang got up and went to the upper room to ask the Zhou family, and Lian Man'er sent a steward out to the gate to talk to the martial brothers.

“…… Don't cry either, you two really have a conscience, you really want to repent, what did you do before. Now when our old lady is gone, you will come to the door, do the thunder and not rain, do you come to cry and mourn, or do you want to make our old lady angry and come back to life? The steward went out, drank the martial arts brothers to prevent them from crying, and then said loudly.

Half of these words were said to the martial brothers, and half were also said to the onlookers.

"These two scoundrels must want to do good things, don't take anything, just kowtow, and settle down, and you can eat a few meals for nothing." Among the onlookers, there were loud voices.

As soon as these words were spoken, someone in the crowd burst into laughter. There is a little difference between doing white things and doing red things, in white things, as long as you come to help, you can eat without hanging paper and gifts. One of the reasons for this custom is that white things are more lively than red things, and the more people who come, the better.

"You have to go in and kowtow to our old lady, no matter what kind of heart you have, we will treat you as kind. But this matter, it doesn't matter what others say, and our old lady has to nod. The acquaintance has already gone to ask the old lady, you wait a while. Look at what the old lady says, if the old lady says that she believes that you have repented and let you go in and kowtow, she will let you in. If the old lady won't let you in, then don't say anything, and go back and forth as soon as possible. ”

"You yourself have done something immoral, you don't need to be reminded, the old man has been sick several times because of the two of you, otherwise, you will be able to live past a hundred years old. Now that the old man is gone, our master can't free his hands, and when he frees his hands, I have to talk to you about it. Now, you can't let the two of you make our old lady angry anymore. If that's the case, don't talk about your two lives, even if your whole family counts, you can't afford to pay for it. ”

The steward's words were so powerful that the martial brothers immediately knelt there in fright, and this time the two of them didn't dare to cry loudly, but just knelt there and trembled.

"That's it," Lian Man'er heard the little walnut come in and talk about the situation of the martial brothers, so he said, "Otherwise, this cat and dog will dare to come to the door to find a bargain with a little cleverness, then it will be worth it!" ”

At this time, Wu Yuchang also came out of the upper room. Then, Zhou's loud voice came out of the upper room.

"Let those two kings and eight calves hurry up, as far as they can. What is crying on the face, the cat is crying, and my heart beats when I see them! …… Beat him out with a stick, and then go up to my door, and break his leg! ”

Zhou's voice was still full of energy. Even the old man passed away, and he didn't delay Zhou's eating and drinking at all, and I heard Lian Ye'er say that Zhou's ate two big bowls of dry rice at noon, and also ate a lot of vegetables, which was not less than the strong laborers.

"Did you hear that, our old lady has spoken, hurry up, or you won't be able to leave." The man in charge said to the martial brothers.

The martial brothers no longer had any luck in their hearts at this time, and the plans they had already thrown out of the clouds, and the two of them got up tremblingly, bowed their heads, avoided the crowd, and slipped away against the wall. Look at that, there are two street rats alive.

"If you really have a heart, you don't need to come forward with this bright dangling, stand far away, kowtow honestly, put on the pillar incense, this intention has also arrived." Li sighed in a low voice.

"If you can truly repent, without these things, it is better than anything else." Zhang also said.

In the evening, another table was prepared in the kitchen, and everyone ate. The lights are lit inside and outside the old house, and no one will come to mourn at night, but the filial sons have to keep vigil all night in front of the spirit, and they have to cry for a while after a while.

"I'll go with my brother later, you should rest, just rest." Zhang Qingshan said to Li and the others, so he really went to the mourning hall, sat in front of the spirit, and talked in a rambling manner, as if the two of them were sitting together chattering before the old man's death.

When Shang Huaide saw it, he also moved a bench and sat down next to Zhang Qingshan.

"I'm with my brother-in-law, too."

When the old people pass away, in addition to the filial sons who guard the spirits in front of the spirit, they also have two or three confidants and friends, which is not lonely. Others say it, it's also a good story.

Zhang Qingshan stayed with him until midnight in front of the old man's spirit, and prepared a night banquet in the kitchen. There are far fewer people at night than during the day, but there are plenty of tables.
