104. Funeral I
The next day, Lin Xue rushed to Li's house early in the morning, a mourning hall had been set up in the courtyard, and a black cloth was hung at the door, because Li Yue's body had not yet been delivered, so the old man just arranged the mourning hall and did not do a funeral.
Everyone in the Li family is dressed in black, the woman has a white flower pinned to her head, and the man is tied with a white cloth, even the old man and the Wang family are the same, originally the younger generation died and the elders didn't need to do this, but the Wang family insisted that everyone keep a vigil for her daughter, and during this period, they couldn't see meat, and they had to pay attention not to commit taboos when dressing and talking.
Lin Xue didn't pay attention to this, but when she came to Li's house, she hurriedly rushed back to change her clothes, and picked a white chrysanthemum from the garden and pinned it on her head, and when she left, she told Yunyun to change her clothes when she came.
In the upper room, the Wang family was still bowing his head and crying, both eyes were already crying and swollen, and the old man was also smoking a dry cigarette silently, he couldn't see whether it was sad or not, Lin Xue walked in and shouted, "Dad, mother." ”
Wang didn't care, but the old man nodded and let her out, looked around the yard, and finally saw Li Qi, who was talking to Li Fu, and both of them didn't look very good.
"Third brother and sister, why did you come here alone, Yunyun." Zhao came out of the kitchen and asked.
Lin Xue stopped and said, "Feng'er will come back today, I will ask Yunyun to wait for him at home, and come over together when the time comes." After a pause, he said, "Second sister-in-law, why don't you see Cheng'er." ”
Lin Xue felt strange, Li Chengcheng didn't get in the car when he came back from the restaurant he went to yesterday, but he didn't expect to be there today.
Zhao glanced left and right and said, "You really didn't see him when you said that, I remember that he didn't come back together yesterday, so it can't be that something happened." Hurriedly asked the Zhang family opposite, "Sister-in-law, why didn't you see Cheng'er, what did he do?" ”
Zhang glared angrily and said, "Why are you so loud, I'm not afraid of making a noise, Cheng'er went to the town, saying that he was going to the county government to inquire about it and see if he had found the white tiger." ”
Zhao sighed and continued to talk to Lin Xue, "Third brother and sister, who did you say killed Yue'er, how could this person who has no grudge or hatred make such a heavy hand." ”
Lin Xue sighed and said, "Who knows, but this matter must be inseparable from the Bai family, and the heart is too ruthless." ”
Zhao Shi glanced at the upper room and said, "You don't know that my mother cried all night yesterday, but I was sad, I thought my mother was so hard, and she wouldn't cry at all." ”
Lin Xue didn't speak, and took Zhao to the kitchen, the pot was boiling water, Lin Xue squatted down and added a handful of firewood, the fire suddenly became hot, and the burning branches creaked.
Zhao's is not idle, the family has not eaten yet, especially Wang's rice has not been eaten since he went home yesterday, and he refuses to eat no matter how he persuades him, because Wang's is not allowed to eat meat, and even stir-fry vegetables can not put oil, Zhao can only take out some rice and put it in the pot, heat up the steamed steamed bun again, and cut a plate of pickles, which is considered noon.
"Xiaoxue, Cheng'er is back, Dad asked us all to go over and listen." Richie said as they pushed the kitchen away.
Zhao and Lin Xue glanced at each other, both of them put down their work and went to the upper room, Li Cheng was talking, and saw someone come in and paused, and continued to talk.
"Grandpa, the white tiger has been caught, he didn't go there and stayed at home, and he was still sleeping when he was caught last night."
The old man took a puff of dry tobacco and asked, "Then what did he say, did he kill Yue'er?" ”
Li Cheng took a sip of tea and said, "He didn't admit it, he said that he didn't know that his sister-in-law ran out by himself, and he hadn't seen his sister-in-law in the restaurant, but when he confronted the fourth aunt, he admitted that he brought his sister-in-law with him, but he didn't admit that he killed someone." ”
"What fourth aunt, that's the broom star, poisonous woman, if it weren't for her, my Yue'er wouldn't have died, you all remember for me, from now on there will be no such person in our family." Wang's face was red with excitement, and his eyes were full of hatred.
"Okay, old woman, listen to Cheng'er." The old man persuaded softly.
Wang stopped scolding and looked at Li Cheng, Li Cheng thought about it, and said, "The case is not over yet, and the county order says that there is still some evidence missing, so let's wait patiently for a few days and don't worry." ”
"What evidence do you need, this thing looks like it was done by Baihu, otherwise why would he lie, he must be a thief." Li Fu slapped the table, the tea bowls shook with it, and said, "Dad, let's rush to the Bai family, let them pay for their lives, the little sister can't die in vain, and they must make their family pay the price." ”
"That's it, his Bai family has made so much money, it's time to let out some blood, Dad, don't you want to avenge your little sister." Li Gui echoed on the side.
Lin Xue pulled the corner of Li Qi's clothes and didn't let him speak, those two fools only had money in their minds, they didn't notice Wang's darkening face at all, and they didn't want to think about how Wang's precious Li Yue could use Li Yue's death to make money.
The pillow on the kang flew down, and there were scissors, half of the soles of the shoes, and they were thrown at Li Fu and Li Gui in one go, Wang kept looking for things, and threw whatever he had on the bed, "You two brutes are still thinking about money, the person who died is your sister and has no conscience, and that kind of black-hearted money also wants, and is not afraid of being struck by thunder." Wang threw away the small pieces and threw the big ones, and even the quilt on the bed was thrown down.
Li Fu and Li Gui kept dodging, but they were still inevitably beaten, so they had no choice but to hide under the table and beg for mercy, "Mother, we know that we are wrong, you will spare us if you are old, and you will never dare to do it again in the future." ”
A farce ended like this, everyone was in no mood to eat, so they went back after two bites, and the old man told him to wait for the case to end and handle Li Yue's funeral, so there was no need to come over during this time, everyone should do whatever they wanted.
Lin Xue met Li Feng and Yunyun halfway, and took them back without saying a word, and Li Qi entered the house and plugged the door from the inside.
The whole family was dressed in black, sitting on the stool in turn, the strange situation made Lin Xue laugh suddenly, hurriedly covered her mouth and lowered her head, laughed silently twice, and raised her head with a sad expression.
Li Feng had a defeated expression, stood up like a little adult, put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth in the house, and asked in a half-loud voice, "Mother, I already know about my sister-in-law, and when I came back, I asked in the county office, and the arrester at the door told me that he seemed to have found some evidence, and the case would be solved in a few days." ”
