The first seven days were the most important day for the deceased, early in the morning Jin'er struggled to get up from the kang, Xiao Zheng felt that her illness had not healed, so she put the thick cloak that Xiao's mother had just made on Jin'er's shoulders. In the past few days, many villagers have rushed over when they heard the news, and after entering the door, they cried at the spiritual seat of Mr. The offerings were prepared, the courtyard was full of blind dates who came to worship, and hundreds of people walked along the path up the hill to the grave of the gentleman, and these people went to the grave to pay respects to the gentleman in an endless stream, and the thick snow on the path was cleaned by the villagers.

In front of the grave is the villagers pooled money with a large green stone carved tombstone, the stone tablet Xiao Zheng with the Song Dynasty neatly written "the tomb of Mr. Li Gongwenbo in Chengli Luoyang County, the former Sui Luoyang County", the handwriting is vigorous and powerful, next to the tombstone is more than half a foot thick stone, the stone surface is polished smooth as a mirror, the stonemason with good craftsmanship was found on the top, and the portrait painted by Xiao Zheng to Mr. was carved on the top, and the gentleman in the stone statue still looked at everyone with a smile. The two huge bluestones were dragged up little by little by the villagers with ropes, and this alone is enough to see the virtue of the gentleman in these nearby villages.

I couldn't help but look back with emotion, and I couldn't help but feel heartache when I saw Jin'er's weak appearance, and stretched out my hand to tighten Jin'er's cloak again. After the worship, Xiao Zheng said to the villagers in the village: "Fathers and fellow villagers, the ancestors have a legacy before their deaths, and they will continue to teach their children after the beginning of spring next year, if everyone is willing to come, I Xiao will continue to welcome them, if they are not willing to come, Xiao Zheng welcomes them at any time." The villagers said that Mr. Xiao was relieved that we would definitely send our baby over, and let Mr. watch us get better and better, so that Mr. is also happy.

After the villagers finished worshipping and slowly dispersed, Xiao Zheng said to Jin'er: "The place where Mr. sleeps can see our yard, if you are not happy in the future, you will be unhappy if you see it online, so we have to live happily, so that Master can also feel at ease", Xiao's mother also said after hearing it: "This first seven relatives want to go home to see, according to the custom, the family should be happy, don't let Mr. go unhappy." Jin'er didn't speak, just nodded.

In the evening, when the villagers went back, Xiao Zheng lit incense for Mr. and sat quietly in front of the spiritual seat for Mr. Portrait, Jin'er also came over and knelt next to him after seeing it, Xiao Zheng knew Jin'er's character, just looked at her and let her sit, the two sat quietly and no one spoke, and when it came to the second watch, both of them were a little difficult, so Xiao Zheng asked Jin'er to rest on the kang for a while, and he still sat on the mat to guard.

I moved my body to burn three pillars of incense to the master's spiritual position, and when I stayed until the third watch, I felt that I was also a little difficult, so I sat on the mat and dozed off in a daze, as if I was not sleeping, when I suddenly saw the master enter the house, Mr. was like when he met Xiao Zheng for the first time, dressed neatly and neatly, and his face was full of energy. Xiao Zheng immediately knelt in front of the master, hugged the master's legs and cried, but he couldn't cry anymore. After waiting for a while, it was as if I dreamed that I was in my previous life, in a medical school, and I was taking notes carefully in class, and when I looked up, I saw that the university professor looked exactly like Mr. When I was surprised, I saw myself by the Weishui River, the eyes in the faucet on the Baqiao were glowing red, and the medical kit I threw down was floating there and slowly sinking into the water. When I looked up out of the water, I saw Mr. standing on the bridge and looking at himself with a smile, there were many attendants around Mr.

Just woke up, and suddenly found that Jin'er also sat up from the kang, and just wanted to ask Jin'er why she woke up, only to see Jin'er choked up and said to Xiao Zheng: "I dreamed of Aya just now." Xiao Zheng was stunned for a moment, looked at Jin'er with wide eyes, and said, "How can it be so coincidental!" I also dreamed of Master just now, and he seemed to be about to tell me something, but he didn't say anything." Jin'er looked at Xiao Zheng with an incredible face and said with a sad expression: "I also dreamed of Aya, Aya was holding my hand and saying something, I didn't hear it clearly, but he pointed to your smile on my face." Xiao Zheng didn't say anything after listening to Jin'er's words, stood up silently and knelt solemnly in front of the master's spiritual throne and said, "The teacher is above, your old man can go with confidence!" The disciple will take care of Jin'er, please rest assured, everything you say, the first son will properly handle him, and the disciple will also keep in mind your trust and carry forward the master's family", Jin'er saw Xiao Zheng say this and lay down and fell asleep peacefully.

The next morning, I told my mother about the situation of Mr. in a dream, Xiao's mother burst into tears after listening to it, and then smiled happily again, and said to Xiao Zheng and Jin'er: "Mr. has accumulated countless virtues in his life, and it is said that people who have accumulated great merits will go to the underworld to be officials and be in charge of Yin Si after their deaths, Mr. must be a god over there, otherwise you can't see Mr. being followed by many followers, Mr. entrusts Jin'er to you to take care of your life, it seems that Mr. has chosen the right person, but I can't guess what I told you to be a mother, Presumably the time has not come, you were rescued from the Baqiao by Master Changjie, there is a destiny in this darkness, in short, you must remember this dream that Mr. gave you, try not to miss everything, and feel that you are also destined for that place."

It was another light snowfall, and after the cold wind blew, this winter had entered the wax moon, and the life of the poor families was definitely not good, and the thick snow in the village covered the streets, and few pedestrians walked. The master has been dead for more than 20 days, and the courtyard has quieted down without the husband. The people who come to visit the door at night are not interested in coming these days, and there is less noise at night. Standing in the middle of the main hall and looking at the empty room, Xiao Zheng closed his eyes for a while and took a long breath at the portrait of his husband. Whether it is the emperor or the general, or the common people, after the death, everyone should worship or worship, and wait until they enter the earth for peace, once the matter is over, only occasionally mention that Mr. is still a good person and a good official, and the life of each family still has to go on.

Jin'er's body is almost recovered, except for a few coughs, it is no different from usual, her face is a little more mature and firm, and there is no laughter and laughter in the past. There was still a trace of sadness in his eyebrows between the conversations, after all, he had suffered such a big blow, and it was difficult to untie the knot for a while.
