Chapter 308: Wake the Spirit
Mo Changju looked at all this in front of him, and suddenly felt bored.
In the entire Hou Mansion, how many people are really sad about the death of their grandmother?
On Qiao's face, she was sad but happy, happy for the future life of the master mother without the suppression of her mother-in-law.
Tao is really a little sad, not for the old lady, but for the lack of a person in the house who can protect their mother and son, and he is sad for his situation.
As for a room full of slaves and maidservants, there is even less.
He found someone and asked, "Have you gone to the academy to inform the second son?" ”
Xia said: "I went early in the morning, but the academy is far away in the suburbs of Beijing, and the second son is afraid that it will take a while to arrive." ”
Mo Chang nodded decisively, wondering if his younger brother would be really sad when he knew that his grandmother was gone.
Grandmother, in the end, still loves him.
When Mo Chang came back to his senses, he had already walked near the plum garden, and he remembered that Yun Yao was still in the Bamboo Fragrance Courtyard, and he had forgotten about her.
Mo Chang Jue looked back and saw Lu Yunyao, Qingyun and a few small people, who were not far away, looking at him worriedly.
Lu Yunyao was still sobbing and choking, his eyes were swollen like two small buns, and he smiled when he saw it.
Stretching out his hand, he said, "Come here." ”
Lu Yunyao wiped the tears on her chin, walked over slowly, and put her hand in his.
"Your Highness, please mourn." Lu Yunyao looked at the smile on his face and was very uncomfortable, "I know you're sad, so you don't have to force yourself to laugh." ”
Mo Chang decided that he didn't hear it, wiped the tears from her face with his thumb, and said softly: "You see you crying, your eyes are swollen, can you still see me clearly?" ”
"Nature can see clearly." Lu Yunyao's nose was blocked, and she said sullenly, "Yunyao doesn't want to cry, but she can't stop." ”
The originally moist eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of gray and dull.
Lu Yunyao has no relatives, let alone a grandmother, and for her, the old lady is like her grandmother.
As a result, she only came to the Hou Mansion for one year, and the old lady was gone.
Mo Changdu touched her head and took her hand, "Let's go, go back and change into plain clothes, we still have to take care of my grandmother's funeral." ”
Lu Yunyao nodded.
After that, the old lady's funeral.
The door of Pingxi Hou's mansion was hung with white pans, white lanterns were hung everywhere, and a mourning hall was erected in the house, and everyone in the house was dressed in linen clothes, and their expressions were sad.
Lu Yunyao accompanied Mo Changju to accompany the old lady in the mourning hall, and there was an endless stream of guests who came to incense the old lady.
Mo Ran didn't see the old lady for the last time, and was too sad, so he became ill, and now he is still bedridden and cannot preside over the old lady's funeral.
Therefore, the funerals were all organized by Mo Changdu, the eldest grandson, to fulfill his filial piety on behalf of his father and entertain guests.
Mo Chang decided to kneel in the Ling Hall, his face was very indifferent, everyone in the capital knew his temperament, and he would not come to fight again at such a time, they were all polite, and they didn't let Mo Chang make trouble.
Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion also sent someone over, because of the relationship with the Pingxi Hou Mansion, it was the youngest son, Wei Hengye, who was on good terms with Mo Chang.
Wei Hengye was dressed in plain white clothes, with no decorations on his body, and when he saw Mo Changdu's appearance, he let out a long sigh.
After offering incense to the old lady, he looked lonely, "I remember that in the past, the old lady Mo still liked me very much, her voice and smile were still in front of me, but I didn't expect ......"
Lu Yunyao brought him a cup of tea, and reluctantly smiled, "Master Wei, have a cup of tea, please go to the back hall to rest." ”
Wei Hengye pulled her aside, glanced at Mo Changdu, and whispered to her: "Miss Lu, Changdu, he is in the Hou Mansion, and the closest thing is his grandmother, now that Old Lady Mo has passed away, he must be very painful in his heart, you must comfort him well, don't let him do stupid things." ”
Lu Yunyao nodded and said in a low voice: "I know, I will accompany the son, all the time." ”
Wei Hengye paused for a moment and said: "Then I will rest assured, if it was before, I am afraid that I will be very worried about his situation, but with Miss Lu here, he will feel better, if there is something, I must let someone come to Zhongyong to find me." ”
"Yes, Yun Yao is the son, thank you Wei Gongzi." Lu Yunyao was blessed.
"No, how many years have I been with Changdu, if you let him see it, you will say that I bullied you, he is so sad, don't make him angry again."
Wei Hengye helped her up, and in this ** solemn situation, he reluctantly made a joke.
glanced at Mo Changduan again, and was led to the back hall by his subordinates.
After three days of vigil in the mourning hall, he will go out of the funeral.
Mo Chang decided to be the eldest grandson, holding the coffin and leaving, the mourning team was the family members of the Pingxi Hou Mansion, the cry shook the sky, and the paper money was sprinkled along the way, and the funeral was sad and sad.
Mo Chang's eyes were numb, and he didn't rest for several days.
Lu Yunyao followed him in fear, afraid of when he would fall.
The Pingxi Hou Mansion personally invited people to choose a cemetery with good feng shui on the barren mountain on the outskirts of Beijing.
The family members of the Pingxi Hou Mansion watched with their own eyes, and the old lady's coffin was sealed into the soil.
Mo Chang pulled Lu Yunyao and knelt down in front of the tombstone.
Lu Yunyao held his hand tightly, with grief in his voice, "Your Highness." ”
She silently changed her words, "Long decision." ”
Mo Chang turned his head to look at her.
Lu Yunyao's eyes were bright, and she choked up: "I will always be by your side, and I will never leave again, don't scare me so much, okay?" ”
Mo Changju turned his head back again.
Lu Yunyao wondered if he hadn't heard it at all.
After a long time, there was a chuckle from him in the wind, and Lu Yunyao's hand was tightly held by her.
Mo Changduel faced the old lady's tombstone, put her hand to her heart, and her eyes were bound to win.
"Even if you don't want to, you have to stay by my side, I swore in front of my grandmother that I would never break my promise in this life."
He promised his grandmother that he would be nice with her.
Lu Yunyao finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he was finally willing to speak, these days, she was too worried.
Watching Mo Changju gradually fall silent, even his eyes did not change, like a soulless body.
No matter what she said, Mo Chang would never respond, and Lu Yunyao was anxious.
But the Hou Ye was sick, the wife had a head attack, the Tao family was only a concubine, and had no real power, and the second son was the second grandson.
Mo Chang decided to be the eldest grandson, so he could only carry the burden on his body.
These days, he has been sleepless, and he is also keeping a watch in the mourning hall at night, Lu Yunyao is too worried, for fear that the old lady's funeral is not over yet, so he will follow first.
Lu Yunyao didn't dare to leave him, for fear that he wouldn't want to have an accident.
It wasn't until today that there was a trace of emotional ups and downs on Mo Changdu's face.
He knelt in front of the old lady's tombstone, his eyes downcast, and his voice like the wind.
laughed at himself: "Before my grandmother left, she was still worried about me, I have lived for more than ten years, and I have achieved nothing, everyone knows that I am a gentleman, and my grandmother must be disappointed in me." ”
"No, it won't." Lu Yunyao shook her head, "How can it be, the old lady is most proud of having a grandson like you, and besides, you didn't mean to be like this, it's because Madam is afraid of you, isn't it?" ”
