81. Knotted grass ring

Everyone was ordered to complete their own tasks, Li Pojun sat alone on the threshold, now he is the only person in charge here, and the old lady's funeral must be completed as soon as possible, and there is a silly descendant left in his family, and it is impossible to do it wantonly.

Looking at the small vegetable field in front of him, Li Pojun seemed to be able to see that an old man with a rickety body was farming here.

Looking at the square well next to him, Li Pojun could see the kind and hard-working old man washing clothes with his old fingers soaked in water, one old and one "young", making a living from it.

Remembering that he had just said that the well water was sweet, and now that the old man's soul was in it, Li Pojun felt uncomfortable for a while.

Soon, Li Zheng and others, who went to buy a coffin, came back with a lacquer-colored coffin, as well as a lot of incense, candles, and paper money, and two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, came back together.

Those two people seem to be very nervous, and anyone who is inexplicably "hijacked" by a group of people will be nervous.

My grandson was going to close the door, it was dark, and he was on the door panel, and the leading young descendant took a few murderous men, and he wanted a good coffin without saying a word, and he said that he didn't listen to the closed door, and he didn't explain the intention and identity, and finally he was stunned to invite me and the two of them over, what do you say it's called.

At this time, Li Zheng also stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, we have bought the coffin back", Li Pojun agreed casually, and was about to ask who these two people were, but suddenly felt that it was wrong, Li Zheng had always called him Xiaolangjun, why did he change his words.

Looking at the two people who trembled when they heard the word "Your Highness", Li Pojun also understood that this was to identify those two people.

"The shopkeeper Sun, this is the prince of the king of Qin, the king of Jiangling County, and he still hasn't seen him."

"Ah, a certain grandson has seen His Royal Highness", "Nusun Wang has seen His Highness".

When Sun San and his wife heard that this was the prince of the dynasty, they hurriedly bent down to pay respects.

After ordering the two to get up, Li Pojun looked at Li Zheng, and Li Zheng replied: "Xiaolang, I'm worried that I won't be able to handle this funeral, so I invited the shopkeeper Sun over, after all, they should be in business."

Sun San couldn't help but secretly scolded his mother when he heard this, are you so invited, without saying a word, he led a few big men to kidnap me, but he didn't dare to say it, there is a county king here

"Oh? You have a heart", Li Pojun found that he couldn't give up all day today, and there were omissions everywhere he should be told, which was also a problem of his lack of experience in handling things.

But fortunately, his subordinates are competent, looking at Sun San and his wife, Li Pojun suddenly felt that it was necessary to invite a person.

"The hard work of the shopkeeper Sun, my friend and grandmother are newly mourned, and a group of people such as me are at a loss, and I am bothered by the shopkeeper Sun and his wife to deal with it, and the king is rewarded", said and handed over ten taels of silver from the money bag.

In fact, Li Pojun only brought forty or fifty taels of silver with him on this trip, after all, silver is a precious currency, and one tael of silver is equivalent to a thousand dollars, and the purchasing power is still very high.

Sun San's eyes lit up and he took ten taels of silver, and the best Nanmu coffin in his shop was only worth one or two taels of silver, which was enough for his whole family for a year.

Now he is very happy to see this huge amount of money, if it weren't for the funeral, he wouldn't have laughed.

After a while, the people who bought the food also came back, because it was dark and the store was closed, all of which were freshly made, and after Li Pojun ate without knowing the taste, the next thing was handed over to Sun San.

He also instructed his mother-in-law to bathe and change clothes for the old lady, and decorated the mourning hall, and the candle with the thickness of the child's arm burned more than half, which can be regarded as done.

Although Li Pojun didn't move, but he was tired of looking at it, a group of guards found a place in the courtyard to sleep in their own clothes, and took turns on duty, Sun San and his wife were also poor, and they were hired to do things for the prince, so they just found a place to rest in the side room.

Hanwa knelt in the mourning hall to keep watch, and only Li Pojun was dizzy and had nothing to do.

Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Li Pojun had mixed feelings in his heart, and he even thought in his heart, if he didn't appear, the old lady would still be living peacefully with Hanwa, maybe a rich man bought Hanwa's sword, maybe the money from selling the sword could cure the old lady's illness, so wouldn't they still live as usual.

Walked to the well that had devoured the old man, and sat on the edge of the well.

The well behind him is what the old man and Hanwa rely on for a living, the old man uses this well to wash clothes for the family, and Hanwa even drinks well water to fight hunger.

Remembering that he was still tasting the well water with great interest in the afternoon, he was very embarrassed in his heart, and his heart was full of admiration and even guilt for the old lady

。

Just now, when Sun San was making the spiritual seat, he asked about the old man's surname, and what was shocking was that Hanwa didn't know the old man's name, and the old man never mentioned his name to Li Pojun, which couldn't help but make people feel distressed, such a kind and strong old man, but he didn't leave his name, and he couldn't let future generations know. This is so similar to the nameless woman of Huansha who threw herself into the river after Wu Zixu crossed the river.

Dizzy, Li Pojun had a dream, in the dream he held a tiger halberd, stepped off the jade top horse, crisscrossed the field, suddenly, he was surrounded, a group of soldiers surrounded him, not far away Hanwa was dressed in full body iron armor, holding two sledgehammers, invincible, seeing Li Pojun was surrounded and desperate to save, but when Li Pojun just swept down this group of soldiers, a big horse with an enemy general roared, to see that the big knife was about to be greeted on Li Pojun, suddenly, under the roar of the deputy general next to him, The horse suddenly fell to the ground, and the enemy general was also overturned to the ground, and Li Pojun was saved.

Suddenly, Li Pojun woke up and found that he was not on the edge of the well, on a simple wooden bed, covered with a coat, the sky was just dawning, it was late autumn, the weather was still a little cold, Li Pojun tightened the fur on his body.

The dream I had just had was very strange, although everyone cheered for God's blessing, saying that Li Pojun was blessed by heaven, but Li Pojun obviously felt that the enemy would be tripped over something, as if it was...... Eternally grateful.

Li Pojun was taken aback, the old man said yesterday that he must repay the grass rank, could it be ...... Li Pojun couldn't help but shudder when he thought about it.

It was dawn, and everyone rose up with the sound of roosters.

With the help of Sun San and his wife, the coffin was carried to a wasteland in the west of the city for burial.

There is no grand scene, and only Hanwa wears linen and filial piety, Li Pojun originally wanted to wear linen out of respect for the old man, but Li Zheng and others tried their best to admonish him, after all, Li Pojun is a royal person, with a noble status, and only a white cloth is tied on his arm - he is buried as a peer of the deceased, and Hanwa is also tied with a Xuan cloth on his arm, and he is buried as a direct grandson and nephew. All of this was done by Sun San and his wife, if Li Pojun and others would definitely not understand.

watched the coffin slowly be filled into a grave bag, and only a column was engraved on the tombstone, "The tomb of the old man of the Shi clan first, Sun Shi Jinli". The handwriting is thin and powerful, thin and straight, which is exactly what Li Pojun wrote.

And in view of the fact that the old lady did not leave a name, but read that she had worked for the Shi family all her life, and after asking Hanwa, she took the old lady's surname as Shi, which can be regarded as an affirmation of the old man who has devoted her life to the Shi family, at this time she is no longer the grandmother of the Shi family, but a member of the Shi family, and the grandmother of the only descendant of the Shi family.

After the funeral, it was past noon, and after dinner, it was time to leave for Chang'an, but for one more person, that was Shi Jin.

Looking at the majestic Chang'an City in front of him, Li Pojun knew that his time was coming, and he was going to officially intervene in the battle of this prosperous era, instead of eating and waiting for death to escape.
