Chapter 579: Orphans and Widows
It's almost the New Year, but Li Xiu suddenly went out alone on this day, and then came to a mausoleum in the west of the city, which is the place where Qianniang is buried. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's just that what Li Xiu never expected was that just when he was about to see Qianniang's mausoleum, he suddenly heard a cry of grief, which made Li Xiu stunned, and his footsteps stopped, this is a wilderness, and the cemetery that Wang Renbiao and his wife chose for their daughter is very independent, there is no other people's cemetery around, and now it is about to celebrate the New Year, and it is not the time to worship.
Thinking of the above, Li Xiu couldn't help but be even more strange, and stepped forward again, and when he turned a small forest, he saw a group of people standing in front of Qianniang's tomb at a glance, one of the women wearing linen and filial piety held the hand of a little boy, crying while burning paper money in front of the tomb, which made Li Xiu stunned again, and then recognized that these two people must be Wang Renbiao's wife, Mrs. Wang, and their couple's great son Wang Fangyi.
Seeing Mrs. Wang and Wang Fangyi here, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel a little strange, after all, now is not the time to worship, and both their mother and son are dressed in linen and filial piety, if they are just worshipping Qianniang, they don't need to wear these?
Although Li Xiu was strange in his heart, since he met here, he couldn't avoid it, so he stepped forward immediately, but Wang Fangyi saw him first, pulled his mother's clothes at the moment, and then showed a smile to Li Xiu, the little guy was still too young after all, and he didn't understand his mother's grief.
After receiving her son's reminder, Mrs. Wang saw Li Xiu, wiped her tears and stepped forward and saluted: "The concubine has seen the concubine, I don't know how the concubine came here?" ”
"Ahem, I came to the neighborhood to do some errands today, but I happened to pass by here, and I heard the crying here, and I felt a little strange in my heart, but I didn't expect Mrs. Wang to be here." Li Xiu coughed dryly and made up a lie at the moment, after all, he couldn't say that he came to burn Xuanzang's letter to Qianniang.
"I see, I thanked the concubine for my husband and little girl!" I saw Mrs. Wang saluting Li Xiu with red eyes.
"Husband?" Li Xiu was stunned for a moment when he heard Mrs. Wang's words, and then asked with a shocked face, "Why did Mrs. Wang say this, cousin Ren...... What happened to him? ”
Hearing Li Xiu mention Wang Renbiao, he saw Mrs. Wang's tears pouring out all of a sudden, and she immediately cried bitterly, and the young Wang Fangyi also held back her tears, and her little face was also flushed, which made Li Xiu guess something at once, but for a while I still couldn't believe it, when Wang Renbiao left Chang'an last year, he also said goodbye to him, but he didn't expect that he hadn't seen him for a year, and the other party was no longer there.
After crying for a while, I saw that Mrs. Wang stopped her grief, and then saluted Li Xiu with grief: "Don't blame the horse, the concubine is really rude!" ”
"Mrs. Wang doesn't have to be polite, it's just that Cousin Ren just went to Qizhou last year to take office, why did he suddenly ...... It's gone? Li Xiu asked anxiously again at this time, although he knew that Wang Renbiao in history died early, but he didn't expect it to be so soon, and so suddenly.
"Woo~, the first husband did go to Qizhou last year to take office, and said that after Qizhou stabilized, he would take our mother and son over, but I didn't expect that the first husband only went for more than half a year, and suddenly got sick and died not long after, leaving our mother and son, and then finally sent the coffin of the late husband back to Chang'an, and buried it next to Qianniang!" When Mrs. Wang said at the end, she pointed to the back of Qianniang's tomb, and her face was even more sad.
Following Mrs. Wang's fingers, Li Xiu saw that there was an extra tomb in the back of Qianniang's tomb, and when Li Xiu came just now, Qianniang's tomb just blocked his sight, so he didn't find it at first, until then he saw the words on the tombstone, which was Wang Renbiao's tomb.
"This ......" Looking at Wang Renbiao's grave, Li Xiu's heart was also mixed, and he didn't know what to say for a while, who would have thought that a person who was fine a year ago suddenly turned into a cold corpse in the grave, which also made him realize the fragility of life again.
After a long while, Li Xiu finally accepted this fact, and his face showed a sad look at the moment, and then he said to Mrs. Wang: "Madame's condolences, although Cousin Ren has gone, there are still Fang Yi who needs your care, and I hope you can cheer up, don't hurt your body because of too much grief!" ”
"Thank you, colt!" When Mrs. Wang heard Li Xiu's comfort, she couldn't help but burst into tears again.
In fact, when she received the news of Wang Renbiao's death, Mrs. Wang also wanted to go to Li Xiu's mansion to report the funeral, but she thought of Li Xiu's identity and was afraid that her family would not be able to climb high, so she dispelled this idea, as for the eldest princess of Tong'an, the relationship between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been bad, and the eldest princess of Tong'an has never cared much about Wang Renbiao's family, and it can even be said that she is indifferent, and she didn't pay attention to it at all when she received the news, let alone Princess Pingyang, and even the county lord of Guanghua didn't know that her half-brother had died.
"By the way, why is Cousin Ren buried here, shouldn't he be buried in the ancestral tomb of the Wang family?" Li Xiu suddenly thought of one thing, and asked a little strangely at the moment, this era pays attention to the return of fallen leaves, and men are generally buried in their ancestral graves after they die, so as not to become lonely ghosts.
As soon as she mentioned this matter, Mrs. Wang cried bitterly again, and it could be seen that she was not too strong a woman, but in contrast, the young Wang Fangyi said quite calmly: "Qi Yu Concubine, my father made a will before he died, and he must be buried next to my sister's grave, so that he can protect my sister underground!" ”
Listening to Wang Fangyi's immature voice, and then looking at Mrs. Wang, who was crying, Li Xiu couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, he didn't expect Wang Renbiao to really love his daughter, and would rather not enter the ancestral grave after death than be buried with his daughter, and then look up at Wang Renbiao's tomb, and found that the location of this tomb is really good, and it looks like protecting Qianniang's tomb in his arms.
After a long while, Mrs. Wang stopped crying again, and then Li Xiu found that Mrs. Wang's face was also extremely haggard, it seems that the death of her daughter and husband has also formed a huge blow to her, which really makes people worry about whether she will fall?
Thinking of this, Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh lightly, and immediately spoke again: "Mrs. Wang, I don't know what you and Fang Yi plan to do in the future?" ”
