Chapter 208: An Unexpected Change

The strength of the deep girl is really great, and she is carrying Li Yu, and she actually walks like a fly.

Although the Chu house is huge, fortunately, the two of them have not rushed to the second courtyard, and they saw many men and women crowded there at the entrance of the second courtyard.

Li Yu hurriedly said: "Let me go quickly!" ”

Miss Shen ran a little panting, so she put Li Yu down as she said, and at this time, Li Yu didn't care about the wound from the snake teeth on her buttocks, but paid a little attention, and walked forward with a slight limp and Shen Girl. When he got closer, he heard a burst of crying, and Li Yu couldn't help but be taken aback when he looked at it.

I saw General Chu Longxiang and General Chu kneeling on the stone steps in front of the threshold to the courtyard of the second entrance, crying profusely. In front of him, there was a group of men and women, old and young, all dressed in linen and filial piety, crying in his direction, and raising their sleeves to wipe their tears from time to time.

Li Yu was stunned and asked in a lost voice, "Is this ...... What's wrong? Why is the general so sad? ”

There were also a lot of people around, there were generals, and there were also domestic servant-like figures wearing clothes and wrapping their backs, among which some generals recognized Li Yu and hurriedly whispered: "The general sent people back to his hometown to pick up the old lady to Beijing to enjoy Qingfu, but the old lady was infected with a disease. In addition, he is already old, and he is already halfway there...... Passed away! ”

"Ahh

Li Yu's face was sad when he heard this, and his tone became a little heavier. In fact, the old lady of the Chu family can't pass away, and she has nothing to do with him, and he can't be sad about it, but ...... It's normal for people to be fine, it's not good for you to be in front of other people's filial sons.

Li Yu hurriedly stepped forward with a solemn face, and said solemnly to General Chu, who was crying on the ground: "General's Day mourning!" ”

When General Chu heard the voice, he glanced up at him with teary eyes, and cried out in pain: "Mother! My dear mother! I didn't even see the last of you! I thought I would take you to Beijing to enjoy Qingfu, why did you leave your son, my mother~~~"

General Chu cried, and sat up slightly straighter. Li Yu saw that he was holding an ash jar in his arms.

Cremation and burial appeared in the Shang Dynasty, and during the Han Dynasty, with the introduction of Buddhism into the Central Plains, cremation became more popular. Especially since the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, the Southern Jin Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, wars continued, and the number of deaths soared.

In the Tang Dynasty, under the influence of Hu Feng, cremation became more popular, but the mainstream was still burial. With the financial resources of the Chu family, of course, they can afford the cost of burial, but the old lady died of illness on the way to Beijing, and the transportation was not convenient at that time.

Seeing that General Chu was crying sadly, the people kneeling in front of him should be his wife, children and grandchildren, and the people next to him were either domestic slaves or generals, and no one could take care of the funeral, Li Yu volunteered, took another step forward, and said in a loud voice: "The old lady is returning with a crane, and this funeral ceremony must be handled quickly." Hurry up and help the general back to the inner house, and we will handle it! ”

After listening to Li Yu's words, the generals and colonels who were at a loss, scratching their ears and cheeks, and didn't know what to do, rushed up, helped General Chu up, and comforted him and carried him to the back house, and the Chu family who had just arrived also followed behind with tears.

Li Yu stood there and thought for a long time, his eyes rolled slightly, as if he was calculating something. The deep girl tiptoed up to him, looked at him carefully, and couldn't help but say, "Xiao Langjun, are you calculating the auspicious time for the old lady's burial?" You haven't chosen this cemetery yet, have you? ”

Li Yu rolled his eyes and ignored her. How could Li Yu think so far-reachingly, when he was calculating what burial auspiciousness, he was thinking about what needs to be done to organize the funeral.

This funeral custom, many processes, where does Li Yu understand, he is not a funeral officer. After thinking about it for a while, I only thought that General Chu lost his mother, and he should report to the imperial court, as for what processes are needed, I don't know. He also thought that the mourning hall was to be erected, but he didn't know what things were needed......

After being at a loss for a while, Li Yu suddenly thought of the umbrella maker Su Youdao, and he was overjoyed, and he turned around and ran out.

The deep girl chased after her in surprise: "Xiao Langjun, where are you going?" ”

Li Yu raised his hand and said: "I'll go find someone to come back to handle the funeral, you stay well, don't make trouble!" ”

Li Yu went out of the house, immediately hired a carriage, hurriedly went straight to Beicheng, pointed out the carriage to the alley, and saw the flower umbrella in the place, Su Youdao really came out of the stall.

Li Yu was overjoyed and immediately jumped out of the car.

Su Youdao raised his head from behind the umbrella stall and looked at Li Yu in surprise: "It turned out to be Xiao Langjun, why is he in such a hurry?" ”

Li Yu said anxiously, and arched his hand: "Don't hide it, Mr. Li, he is young and shallow, and he doesn't have deep experience, so I really don't understand these things." And the people in Chu Mansion are not fully aware of these etiquettes, but they don't know that Mr. still understands these things. ”

Su Youdao was stunned, stroked his beard slightly, and said, "Hehe, this, Su understands it." ”

Li Yu was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "In this case, please ask Mr. to go back to Chu Mansion with me quickly!" ”

Su Youdao said with a smile: "Why are you in such a hurry, if you want to do a funeral, there are always a lot of things to prepare, since you have come out, if you don't buy some things needed for the funeral rites to go back, how can you explain to General Chu?" ”

Li Yu slapped his forehead and said, "Ah! I'm confused, that's the case, please give me more advice! ”

At that moment, Su Youdao hurriedly collected the umbrella stall and handed it over to a nearby store to help take care of it, and was immediately pulled into the car by Li Yu.

According to Su Youdao's guidance, Li Yu drove wildly, bought coffins in the east market, hired music classes in the west market, bought horses in the south market, and asked paper in the north city.

Of course, it was Li Yu who came forward to do it, but Su Youdao, who seemed to be a hand-maker, was the actual commander, the mourning hall was erected, the spiritual seat was offered, and all the red colors in the house were taken off.

Then, the invited Taoist priest also came with the disciples of Guanzhong to do things for the old lady, and the relatives of the Chu Mansion also followed the instructions to cry and guard the spirit in the mourning hall. When all this was done, Li Yu went to the side of the temporary "command center" wing, and spread it there, feeling so tired that he was about to lose his breath.

After resting for a long time, Li Yu regained his vitality a little, and when he looked up, he saw that Su Youdao was sitting under the lamp, writing articles slowly and methodically. Li Yu said weakly: "Mr. Su, what are you still busy with?" ”

Su Youdao didn't raise his head and said: "For General Chu, report the funeral to Taichang Temple!" ”

Li Yu slapped his forehead and said, "Ah! Not bad! I almost forgot about it! Ah, you haven't eaten yet, have you? ”

Su Youdao smiled, then raised his head and said, "I'm not hungry!" ”

Li Yu hurriedly got up and said, "How can that happen!" I'm going to get some food for my husband! ”

Li Yu looked around, he was really busy and dizzy, and Su Youdao didn't even have a person around him who was waiting for tea and grinding ink inkstones. Li Yu hurriedly confessed and hurriedly walked out.

When Li Yu left, Su Youdao stopped writing, raised his head and looked at his back as he left in a hurry, and smiled meaningfully: This guy really has a limited understanding of etiquette, and it seems that he hasn't realized what General Chu's mother's death means to him!

It seems that even God is helping me. The Pan family and Jixiang have been taken away, and the next step is to use the Pan family and Jixiang as a bridge to find a way to get Li Yu and the Xishi Chang family, one of the three underground emperors, to get in touch, and the identity of General Chu's staff is obviously an obstacle.

But now, General Chu actually wants to mourn his mother and report his worries, so for a long time, he will have to live behind closed doors and stop all official and private affairs, and Li Yu, a staff member, will also have to be temporarily "unemployed". This is more conducive to the realization of my plans.

With the help of God, it went so smoothly......

Su Youdao stroked his slight beard, and a handsome mature man's charming smile appeared on his face......

The deep girl sat cross-legged in front of the low table, taking a sip of tea and a sip of water, and was gobbling up something.

Today's house is handling the old lady's funeral, and I don't know if the inner house is open, anyway, she didn't wait for today's dinner. Fortunately, there are some snacks that are usually sent to Li Yu but never touched, and now they are a little dry, but they can still be wrapped.

"Whoa!"

The door of the shoji that had just been repaired suddenly opened, and the girl was startled, and her eyes widened with a bite of snack.

"Ahh You're here, come with me! ”

"What, where are you going?"

With a deep and ignorant face, he was pulled up by Li Yu and walked out.

Li Yu said hurriedly: "Mr. Su Youdao Su is helping me take care of the funeral in Chu Mansion, and there is no one waiting around." You go and help take care of it. ”

"Mr. Su? Are you talking about the umbrella-making beauty? ”

At that time, the term beauty not only referred to beautiful women, but also to men with handsome appearance and noble morals. Li Yu has the memory of two lives, so he naturally knows this, but the main thinking that controls him is the modern one, so he still habitually associates beauty with women, and when he heard the title of Shenshen, he almost didn't fall on his head.

"Great!"

The deep girl's eyes lit up with stars, Mr. Su's demeanor, temperament, and complexion......

For the deep girl who is a foodie and a face control, it is really an irresistible temptation.

But soon, Miss Shen regretted going to see Su Youdao. Because when she pulled Li Yu and rushed to the wing where Su Youdao was in a hurry, she hiccuped as soon as she heard Li Yu introduce her identity to Mr. Su, who she liked soon.

"Hello, Su ~ Hiccup ~ Sheng, slave ~ Hiccup, surname Feng, Mr. call me Shen ~ Hiccup ~ It's good!" After saying a word, the deep girl, who was so thick-skinned that she never knew what it was, had already turned her face into a little hen that had just laid eggs.
