He Shi can hug his son and cry bitterly, but Shen Hai is a man, his feelings are introverted, his eyes are red, and he patted Shen Jun's shoulder: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back!" ”

It was originally a happy thing, but Shen Li and Shen Rui looked very solemn, and Shen Hai was also more apprehensive in his heart. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 He looked back at the two carriages parked at the door, but there was no movement, and he couldn't help but worry: "Brother Qi, Brother Ling'er are seriously injured?" ”

Without waiting for Shen Li to answer, someone answered: "What's wrong with Shen Qi?" ”

It was Guo who got the news and hurried there. She looked at Shen Jun kneeling on the ground, and then at the two silent carriages, her eyes suddenly widened, her heart tightened, and she didn't dare to step forward.

Shen Rui saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Guo: "Auntie, Second Brother Qi is in the second car, and he has a high fever......

Guo's originally tense body immediately relaxed, walked steadily towards the second car, and lifted the carriage curtain with his own hands.

In the carriage, Shen Qi's eyes were closed, his face was flushed, and his nose moved because of wheezing.

Shen Qi is really not good like this, but Guo Shi smiled with tears in his eyes: "Thank God, thank you to the gods and Buddhas, bless my son to return safely!" ”

Shen Rui was beside him, and he was also relieved. Shen Qi is crippled, and his wife and children are separated, if his family blindly pities and sympathizes, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out of the haze. With a strong mother like Guo, Shen Qi, who was taught, was not a cowardly person.

Maybe it was the mother-son connection, or maybe it was awakened by Shen Qi's crying, Shen Qi slowly opened his eyes, saw that Guo Shi had a dream on his face at that moment, and muttered to himself: "I'm dreaming again......" The words were like this, but he stared at Guo greedily and was reluctant to look away.

Guo couldn't hold back any longer, and tears rolled down.

Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned, and wanted to reach out to wipe Guo's tears, but his right arm was already useless, and it was inevitable that he would be clumsy if he changed his left hand.

Another nearby clansman arrived, and when they saw the scene of the two mothers and sons meeting, they were all embarrassed.

"It's Brother Jun'er who is back." This is an aunt of the water generation.

"Second Brother Jun and Second Brother Qi are back, great, really good......" This is the clan brother of the jade generation.

"Is that Second Uncle Jun? It is unrecognizable. Second Uncle Qi doesn't look like it? "This is hesitant, it is the boy of the wooden character generation, looking at the embarrassment of the two, some of them are not the same as the elders in their memory.

With so many people coming around, Shen Jun had already stood up and stopped crying. He wanted to take his son in to freshen up, but Shen Jun refused to leave.

Shen Qi looked around blankly, and couldn't help pinching himself, knowing that he was not dreaming, but really came out of the prefect's prison. He stretched out his left hand and pulled Guo Shi tightly, with a little fragility on his face: "Mother, mother......"

Guo said with a smile: "Yes, my mother is here!" ”

Shen Rui was just watching from the sidelines, and he also felt sad. But when he looked at the carriage parked in front of him, he saw that the clansmen were all happy about the return of Shen Jun and Shen Qi, and he didn't mention Shen Ling, so he was inexplicably angry in his heart.

Shen Jun is the son of the patriarch, and Ping Suli is in charge of clan affairs on behalf of his father, and is known to everyone, and he is also close to each house; Shen Qi himself is a young man, backed by a solid family business in the fifth room, and there is a Beijing official brother on it, and after returning to his hometown to keep his business, the people of the clan can only respect him; Only Shen Ling, as a concubine, went out to take care of the shop in her teens, even if she was called back to Songjiang by her mother in the past few months, she was called like a housekeeper, and she couldn't get out of her way, even if she occasionally had time to socialize with her relatives, the clan brothers who were cultivating and reading heirlooms looked down on Shen Ling, who was engaged in business.

As Shen Ling's relatives, the people in the third room removed Shen Ling from the list after Shen Ling was imprisoned, and then moved his family out to avoid trouble, so that no one even remembered Shen Ling now.

In the Shen family, the highest surviving elder, the nine-room master, came over tremblingly with his great-grandson and eldest brother on crutches.

When he saw Shen Jun and Shen Qi, the master of the ninth room excitedly dropped his crutches, knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed in the direction of the ancestral hall: "Ancestors bless, the descendants of the Shen family return safely, ancestors bless!" ”

With the sad voice of the ninth master, many onlookers also choked up.

In the past two months, the Shen family has been in turmoil, this is not only a lawsuit of the three sons who were detained, but if the crime is really implemented, I don't know how widely it will be implicated. After all, Songjiang has just experienced the "Japanese rebellion", and there are many casualties among the gentry and the common people, staring at the Shen family, hoping that the Shen family will fall and get a piece of the pie.

As the only remaining older generation in the clan, and also an octogenarian, everyone is afraid of a case, and they dare not let the ninth room master cry like this.

Shen Hai and Shen Li stepped forward to help, and the ninth room master held Shen Li's arm tightly with both hands and did not let go, and said with tears: "Brother Li, my uncle and grandfather are wrong, I was greedy for your father to leave this family business, so I managed to squeeze out the two of you, and here my uncle and grandfather will not compensate you!" ”

In front of everyone's eyes, the ninth room master gave up his old face and wanted to settle old grievances with Shen Li, his nephew.

When Shen Li's father died of illness, Shen Li was still in his mother's womb and did not land, and the nine-room grandfather used the excuse of helping his nephew take care of the family business, and "the dove occupies the magpie's nest" to take over the family business of the nine-room grandson.

Shen Li's mother was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old bride, and she had become a widow before she had established herself in her husband's family, so naturally there was no room for refutation.

The only son of the ninth grandfather was only eighteen or nine years old at the time, and he had not yet said that he was married, and he fell in love with Shen Li's mother who was young and beautiful, and he actually had the intention of getting involved. Shen Li's mother was horrified, and in order to preserve her innocence, she didn't even have time to collect the dowry, so she escaped.

In order to prevent Shen Li's mother from suing the clan, the wicked people sued first, and only said that Shen Li's mother was frivolous and wanted to seduce the uncle, which ruined the reputation of Shen Li's mother.

If it weren't for the help of the Sun family, who came forward to let the patriarch suppress the rumors, this spitting star alone would have forced people to death.

Because the inside story is too filthy, the ninth room master is weak in the end, even if he envies Shen Li's wealth and nobility over the years, he doesn't dare to climb at will, for fear of angering Shen Li and turning over the account

In the middle of the night, the nine-room master was not unrepentant, and even remembered the only son who died early due to illness, and felt that he wanted his sister-in-law to get retribution; Now that the grandson has fled and the life and death are unpredictable, and the great-grandson is not able to become a talent, after this stewardship, the old man also sees the hardships of the grass people's family, and now there is just the opportunity, even if he is cheeky, he wants to reconcile with Shen Li and seek a backer for his children and grandchildren.

The master of the ninth room sings and does everything, but Shen Li has no intention of playing with him.

Shen Li lowered his head, pulled out his sleeves from the old age spotted hands of the nine-room master, didn't look at the nine-room master, and looked at Shen Haidao: "Patriarch, how is Shen Ling's body placed?" ”

Shen Hai was still hesitating whether to persuade the Jiufang Master and Shen Li, no matter what mistakes the old man made in his early years, he was now in his old age, and he and Shen Li were close relatives.

Shen Li had already asked again: "Patriarch, how is Shen Ling's body placed?" ”

When I wanted to say it for the first time, there were still people around me who didn't hear it clearly, but this sentence was clear.

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded, and their expressions were not as relaxed as before, and they looked at the first carriage with horror.

Shen Hai lifted the curtain, looked at the body inside, moved his lips, his brain was empty, and he couldn't say a word.

In the solemnity and silence of everyone, Shen Hai said, "Can ...... Brother Ling has been removed from the family tree at the request of her uncle and father......"

Even if she is not removed, Shen Ling has already passed the crown and is not considered to have died young, but after all, it is a young man who died violently, and it is still not good to mourn in the ancestral hall. Originally, Sanfang was supposed to take the corpse back to cook, but the people in Sanfang left Songjiang, and now there are only a few old servants left to watch the yard, where can they take care of the aftermath.

Shen Li's face was ugly, and Shen Qi said to Shen Hai: "Dad, the second brother Ling was wronged, and he shouldn't be removed from the family tree." Lord Qincha has already allowed the second brother Ling to be buried, or let the second brother Ling mourn in the ancestral hall. ”

Shen Hai was still hesitating, it was not that there were no clansmen who had not mourned in the ancestral hall over the years, but most of them were clan elders who were in high positions. Shen Ling died acutely, so it was not appropriate to stop the spirit at home, but according to the custom, he still stopped the spirit in the temple, so that the monks and Taoists could do more Dharma than enough.

The clans are here, and there is no room for the female relatives to speak, but the Guo family can't see Shen Hai grinding and chirping, and because of what happened to Shen Qi and several people, he was full of complaints about the inaction of the clan, so he said unceremoniously: "Just mourn in the ancestral hall, Brother Ling couldn't get the protection of the clan before his death, and he hoped to get a little care from his ancestors when he died, and he didn't have a surname Shen in vain!" ”

Shen Hai's face was full of shame, and he was speechless.

There are a few elders of the water character generation here, knowing the ruthlessness of the third room and the innocence of Shen Ling, so they also spoke.

This one said, "Let's do it in the ancestral hall, there can't be two places where the spirit stops." ”

The one sighed: "It's not easy for this kid to endure hardships." ”

Shen Li and Shen Jin, the two champions with good prospects, were present, even if everyone had some objections to this arrangement in their hearts, they were more willing to show the close side of the clan. There is a humanitarian: "To be buried in the ground, you can't let Shen Ling even have a place to be buried, let's take him back to the family." ”

Another humane: "Yes, yes, the elders of the third room are confused, and we are not confused, Brother Ling is really not a bad boy." ”

Shen Hai knew that his qualifications were mediocre and he had always acted in a proper manner, so he was afraid that there would be something inappropriate. I didn't really dislike Shen Ling before, but it was just because of the rules. Seeing that all the clansmen were willing to let Shen Ling return to the clan and bury Shen Ling in the ancestral land of the Shen family, he was also relieved in his heart.

At this time, I heard the people behind the crowd: "Don't bother with it, the deceased husband has his own place to be buried!" ”

Everyone unconsciously gave way to a road, and Shen Ling's wife, He, came slowly with a young child in her arms. She had been here for a while, and when she heard the bad news behind the crowd, perhaps she had a premonition, so that she did not lose her temper, and her face was full of determination.

He did not greet the elders present, but walked straight to the carriage with the child in his arms and stopped, looking at the body of his husband, and did not shy away from the child in his arms, but said in a low voice: "Nan'er, this is your father, I haven't seen you for two months, take a good look." ”

Seeing that the He family was like this, Shen Hai knew that she had a grudge against the Shen family, and sighed: "Don't talk angry, since Brother Ling is a descendant of the Shen family, since he should be in the blessed land of the Shen family, where else can he be buried?" ”

He turned around, his eyes were cold: "Patriarch Shen laughed, although the deceased husband was surnamed Shen, he was no longer a descendant of the Shen family in Songjiang, and he was not qualified to be buried in the blessed land of the Shen family." ”

Patriarch Shen smiled bitterly: "That's not the confusion of the elders of the three rooms, at this time, it is important for Brother Ling to settle into the earth as soon as possible, and you don't have to be too annoyed by Brother Ling's daughter-in-law!" ”
