Chapter Seventy-One: Struggle
Young Master Gu finally entered the ground, his daughter-in-law was buried with him, and the tombs of the husband and wife were built together.
The two old ladies saw that the matter was done, said hello to the chief manager, and went back to give the old lady her life.
Although the old lady of the Gu family loves this golden grandson the most, she can't come to send him, so she only sends the people around her to send it, and she goes back to tell her, she was in a very bad mood, because she has recognized two new grandsons who can coax people with sweet mouths, and her mood is finally better.
Maybe because of the relationship between their backgrounds, these two children are especially good at looking at people's eyes, pleasing people, not like the ancient young master, they grew up in the palm of their hands when they hit the ground, and they shook their faces to show people if they didn't like him, and only the old lady coaxed her grandson, and he didn't coax people.
Now there are these two new grandsons who can coax people, and the old lady is so happy to coax them, so the matter of Young Master Gu is light, and only two personal grandmothers are sent to see him, and Mrs. Gu sent her henchmen to keep an eye on her, for fear that the people below will snub her son.
The chief governor also changed the direction of the wind, and after politely sending the old lady and his wife's people away, he ordered the grave repairers to start repairing the grave.
When the repair was halfway through, there was a sudden thunderclap on the ground, and before everyone could react, the big rain beads fell down, and the little servants and the stewards were busy surrounding the chief manager to avoid the carriage, and the workers who repaired the tomb did not care about packing up their tools, and ran all the way to the big tree next to the cemetery to take shelter from the rain, thinking that when the rain was a little smaller, they would go to work again.
But who knew that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was almost noon, someone at the end of the ancient family pulled an oilcloth to set up a tent, and the mother-in-law took a small charcoal stove to raise a fire to boil water, and the fragrance of food wafted over after a while.
The workers smelled only a ringing in their stomachs. A few people were also accustomed to begging for a living in the wilderness, picking up some dry branches under the trees that had not been wet by the rain, starting a fire, and getting food on the spot.
Someone went to report the matter to the chief manager, who was drinking hot soup. Frowning and asking the man next to him who looked like a roe deer and a rat and was dressed in Taoist robes. "You won't miss the auspicious time for the grave repair, right?"
The man stroked the thin handle on his lips and replied to the question: "The young master of your mansion went at a young age, although he prepared a wife who was like a flower and jade for him. But you also know the character of the young man! After speaking, he smiled obscenely at the chief manager, and the two maids waiting next to him stepped back quietly, thinking of the little lady who was sealed in the coffin today.
People say that women should be pretty and filial, although the little lady cried a little crippled, but that figure ...... What a pity! Such a beauty is about to die like this, what a tyrannical thing!
The chief manager is also a man, so he naturally knows what the Taoist means, and he has seen the little lady of the Ye family a few times. I didn't look like I was crying. Good color indeed. But this is not the time to think about this.
"Dao Chief, I wonder how long this rain will be? Although my young master has been buried in the ground, this grave has not been repaired yet...... "The chief manager is worried about whether this errand can be completed smoothly.
The Taoist saw that he did not cooperate. I wasn't annoyed, and I laughed twice. The pretending to be a high-ranking person stroked his beard again, "It's hard to say, but the chief manager should let people hurry!" Young Master Gu is resentful, and the little lady is even more resentful, so it is better to seal it as soon as possible. ”
Before the chief manager heard this, a steward next to him opened his mouth first! "What did the Taoist chief say, my young master died young, and it is natural for him to be resentful, so why is the little lady resentful? If it weren't for her overjoy, the young master of my family would not have died early, and the old lady let her die alive to give her a chance to atone for her sins! The steward was full of words, and it was her honor to be able to accompany Ye Suxin to the funeral.
That person is not angry, this kind of thing that damages yin morality, and his family can still be righteous and arrogant, it's a pity that little lady! Alas! The Taoist lamented that he had no chance to kiss Fang Ze, but this attitude made the chief steward mistakenly think that the Taoist was worried about the tomb repair.
"If you don't seal it sooner, what's wrong?"
"It's nature." The Taoist was asked by the chief manager, came back to his senses, and hurriedly put on a high-ranking appearance, "If she is not sealed in the auspicious time, this woman's resentment is heavier than that of the ancient young master, and she will become a demon, so she will definitely find the old lady and the old man of your mansion to pay for her life, the family is not peaceful, the six animals are uneasy, and the chickens and dogs are ......restless." The Taoist singled out this heresy, and it happened that a lightning bolt lit up in the sky, and there was a loud thunder, which shook everyone's eardrums, although he knew that the person was alarmist, the chief manager still heard it tightly, and turned his head and ordered the people to hurry up and let the workers do it.
There was a loud thunder outside, and the little guy didn't want to go out to spread the word, but the chief manager stared at him, so frightened that the little guy couldn't care about the heavy rain, and he didn't even wear a coat or hat, so he rushed into the heavy rain and went to the cemetery to find the workers.
I saw a figure walking in the cemetery in the rain curtain, and suddenly the sky lit up, and a lightning bolt swept across the sky, and then I saw a thunderbolt falling, and the figure was in the middle.
Everyone exclaimed, but no one dared to rush out to inspect at this time, the chief manager got up when he heard the news, rushed to the tent to look outside, there was a white smoke rising in the graveyard in the heavy rain, he gritted his teeth and looked at the figure lying in the cemetery, and someone next to him exclaimed, "What's the matter?" Someone asked the people around him without knowing what was going on.
"Epsom quilt, struck by lightning!." The person who replied was stunned and replied in a trembling voice.
"Oops! What a wickedness! The older grandmothers chanted the Buddha one after another, and the little maids also chanted, and suddenly the chanting of the scriptures under the tent was everywhere, and the Taoist also came out, he frowned and looked into the distance, and secretly said that it was not good, "The chief manager, please hurry up and let people repair the tomb, and you can't miss the auspicious time." ”
The chief manager looked at the steward beside him, and the steward nodded and took the coat and put it on, and went to the forest next to the cemetery to find it, pouring out the fool, it was raining heavy thunderstorms, how could those workers still be in the cemetery? People are all good, they must be looking for a place to hide from the rain.
Sure enough, after walking a short distance, I found the workers in the woods not far from the cemetery, and when I saw that they were taking pleasure in the local materials and making fires to eat, the steward was full of laughter, and went forward to talk to the foreman, and the master's family spoke, and the workers could not refuse. After all, this white thing has to be counted as an auspicious time, and it is not good to miss the auspicious time, but they have all seen it when the thunder has just fallen and struck people. The foreman took the opportunity to raise the price, and the steward was very dissatisfied with the foreman taking advantage of the fire to rob, but he was secretly annoyed but did not dare to show it on his face, so as to say it. and increased the wages to make these old men move.

"It's raining again!" He Zhang's family reached out and took back the window.
Fan Anyang sat on the kang with Honghong in his arms, lying on the window to look at the rain, He Zhang's family coaxed her not to move, so she had to let Mo Xiang take a cloak and put it on her.
"This rain, the weather will be cold, be careful not to get caught by the wind cold." He Zhang's family saw that Fan Anyang was about to remove his cloak and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade.
Fan Amber sent Du Yunqi out of the door before sending people away. And it rained heavily. So he went back to his lodgings. Send the maids over and let them wait carefully, so as not to let the six girls catch a cold.
"Light a stick first. When it rains, the house smells musty. He Zhang's family instructed Lilac.
Xia Lian came over and asked if she wanted to come for lunch, Fan Anyang nodded and hugged her stomach and shouted that she was hungry. Xia Lian smiled and left, Ruifang left with her, Yanyue and Ruixue were talking, "The jade lock that the eldest young master brought back, I heard that it was opened by the monks in the temple. Yan Yue picked up the jade on the small table in front of her and looked at it, Rui Xue didn't stop saying in her hand: "The eldest young master really hurts the sixth girl."
"That's it. Our eldest young master only has such a sister-in-law, if you don't hurt her, who will you hurt? Do you want to hurt the three girls?"
"I don't know if the three girls were released?"
"Even if she is released, the master will no longer indulge her like before!"
Zhuxiang and they were speechless when they listened, He Zhang's family glanced at them, Yanyue hurriedly closed her voice, and didn't dare to say any more, Rui Xue lowered her head in disdain, "The third girl is the master, you must not talk about the master in private, this time I will spare you, and there will be a next time, but don't be ruthless." ”
"Yes." Yanyue hurriedly got up and said, Ruixue followed, Fan Anyang stood on the kang heartlessly and shouted hungry, and He Zhang's family sent someone to urge.
In the evening, the rain gradually decreased, Fan Anbo and Fan Anyue came to eat with her, the three brothers and sisters had a meal together, Fan Anbo asked his sister, what to do in the afternoon, Fan Anyang counted them one by one with his fingers, Fan Anyue was tired of copying books, and after eating, he lay on the table and listened to the two of them talking nonsense.
Fan Amber looked at him and didn't speak, Fan Anyang followed and looked at him, Honghong jumped on Fan Anyue's head deftly, tilted his head to look at him, and then stepped on his head, and returned to the arms of the little master.
Fan Anyue was so tired that he didn't have the strength to worry about it, and the people waiting in the house all bowed their heads and snickered when they saw it, and the maid outside came to report that the two young masters of the Du family were here.
Du Yunqi and his brothers rarely come over at night, especially when it is still raining heavily, Fan Anbai said in his heart, has something happened?
When their brothers entered the house, the leader of He Zhang's family wiped their brothers' faces with hot cloths, although the rain was heavy, but the two brothers came by car, only after getting off the car and walking into the courtyard gate, they were hit by the rain a little, but the two of them wore raincoats, and the clothes on their bodies were not wet, but the weather was still cold, and the rain was even worse.
He Zhang's family knew that Second Young Master Du was weak and couldn't stand the cold, so they made someone get a hand stove and a soup woman to warm him, and asked the kitchen to bring ginger soup to the two of them, and it was quiet after a lot of chaos.
"It's raining outside, why are you in a hurry to come over at night?"
Du Yunqi glanced at his younger brother, and saw that he was holding the soup bowl and drinking it slowly as usual, so he settled down a little, leaned over to Fan Amber and whispered, Fan Amber looked up at Du Yunxun when he heard this, and then turned back to Du Yunqi and said: "Reasoning, people like ours have no reason to wronged their masters to yield to slaves, since those maids are not well waited, they are replaced, but if they are at home, naturally someone can change if they want to, and now they are out of the house......"
"No, but this guy ...... "If my brother is reasonable, will he tell him to change people?"
"Those maids chew the root of their tongues, it's not right, if they don't change it, they just connive at them, they want to change, for a while, go there to find someone?" Van Amber was blunt.
"I'm going to dial two of the maids around me first, but those few are not good to dispose of on the spot, so I have to send them home." Their deeds are not with him, and Du Yunqi feels unhappy when he thinks that he has to send someone to escort these unconscious people from afar.
Fan Anbo also felt a headache, Fan Anyang walked to Du Yunxun's side with Honghong, looking at his pale face, she tilted her head and thought for a while, and handed Honghong to him, "It's warm." ”
Honghong was very familiar with Du Yunxun's breath, and he had the same kind of smell on his body, so it was safely transferred to Du Yunxun's arms by its owner.
Du Yunxun looked at the dark eyes of the little girl in front of him and smiled, "Thank you." ”

In the empty cemetery at night, a corner of a newly built tomb collapsed, the rain continued to fall from the sky, a slender figure stumbled in the cemetery, the rain was dripping, the figure was panting, the embroidered shoes under his feet were worn out in a short time, and the delicate toes were pierced by sharp stones, Ye Su couldn't care about the pain, and walked to Yaojia Village with all her life, and when she left the cemetery, she looked back, and then went without looking back.
Although she didn't know how she escaped, she had to live.
