The first three nights passed quickly, and Cheng Qi did not find the man in white who glanced at him in a hurry among his relatives and friends who were mourning. On the morning of the fourth day, when he was chatting with Wu Liwei at the door, he saw a pair of men coming by boat with a middle-aged man in official uniform—for some reason, he felt that the man who was an official seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

When the man went ashore, he greeted Cheng Qi first: "Ah Qi, you've been okay lately." ”

"I'm worried about labor, everything is fine." Cheng Qi just can't remember who this honorable driver is, but he vaguely remembers that he seems to be his father's colleague - Cheng Liang is the teacher of Benzhou, and he will also come and go with some big and small figures in the officialdom of Benzhou during the New Year's holidays, maybe because the relationship is not close, this person comes to Cheng's house and walks around less, so his memory is not very deep.

"Qin Tishi, my little Langjun entrusted you with Hongfu, which can be regarded as a thrill and no danger."

Qin Tihe nodded happily: "It's so good, righteous and chivalrous, good people should have good rewards...... Cheng Jiaoyu really taught his son well, a young hero, and he will be of great use in the future. ”

After saying a lot of praise about not wanting money, Qin Tizhi said to Wu Liwei: "You are a descendant of the Cheng family, please go and invite the three elders of this street with my two brothers." It's time for the Zhang family's affairs to be concluded today. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Tihe paused for a moment: "Xiao Langjun, please come over and be a witness." ”

Wu Liwei didn't know what he promised, Cheng Qi followed Qin Tizhi and went out a little uneasy, the third uncle guarded the door and looked at the back of his little master, and muttered in his heart: My future little master grandmother won't have anything to do, right?

When I arrived at Zhang's house, I saw that the mourning hall had not been removed, and the body of Zhang's mother was still parked in the center of the hall. Cheng Qi saw that she was a little more delicate than yesterday, and couldn't help but say in his heart: It is the so-called want to be pretty, and be filial. Sister Yan'er's body is really beautiful, he was thinking about something that was heart-wrenching, and was suddenly interrupted by Zhang Yan's voice: "The little girl has seen Ti Ha and Lang Jun." ”

Cheng Qi secretly looked through Qin Tishi, and saw Zhang Yan looking down, and there seemed to be tears in the corners of her eyes, and she couldn't help but feel pity in her heart.

Qin Tizhi said: "Your family has suffered this misfortune, and Shilin is all side-eyed. Today, some friends asked me to send me some yellow and white things, so that you can settle down in the future. ”

"Thank you, elders."

After Qin Tishi put three pillars of incense on Zhang's mother, he looked around, and there seemed to be no place to sit, so he stood aside, and after waiting for a while, Wu Liwei and the two public servants came over with the neighbors.

After Qin Tisha met with the three elders one by one, he said: "The yamen has confirmed that Wu Zhang's family has indeed been ill for a long time, and he is also attacking each other, so this medicine is ineffective, and there is no way to return to heaven." Now that the people are gone, and three nights have passed, it is better to bury them as soon as possible. Wu Zhang's family had a meal for me in the past, and he wanted to repay him in the future, but who knew that time would not wait for me, and he still regretted it. The old man is an orphan girl, standing alone, hanging from each other. I want to collect the moth, as if it were my own daughter. In the morning and evening, there are maidservants and maids, and there are brothers and sisters in the morning and evening. I wonder what the neighbors think? ”

Hearing that Qin Tizhi was willing to adopt Zhang Yan, an orphan girl, the neighbors on the left and right were naturally happy to agree, and some people said directly: "Qin Tizhi is a hero in this state, he is chivalrous, he is righteous and squandered money to his friends, and he does not distinguish between high and low friends." Now that the little lady of the Zhang family is helpless, she can get the assistance of Qin Tizhi's big hand, and in the future, it will be a good shade under the big tree, and she will comfort the spirit of Lingtang first. ”

Seeing that the three elders all nodded in agreement, Qin Tizhi turned around and helped Zhang Yan, who was kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, and said, "Little lady, don't be sad anymore." Although your mother and I are not sisters and brothers, we have sister and brother feelings. She used to have a life with me, and now I repay the favor by giving her daughter a livelihood. Just nod your head, and I will be your father-in-law in the future, and your father-in-law will take care of everything in the future. ”

For some reason, Cheng Qi always felt that there was something strange in this-maybe it was brought bad by Xia Yusi, a conspiracy theorist, and he always felt that there was something unspeakable in Qin Tizhi's good intentions.

He stared at Zhang Yan nervously, for fear that she would nod her head and agree. Under the gaze of everyone present, Zhang Yan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, bowed to the big guy, and said, "The little girl thanked the neighbors and elders. It's just that the bones of my mother are not cold, and the Huangquan Road is not far away. The little woman couldn't bear to change the door and cut off the incense. ”

Qin Ti said: "You can rest assured of this. Naturally, I will take over your mother's funeral, and I won't tell you that I have run several mountains outside the city in the past few days, just to choose a good feng shui treasure for your mother. As for your father......" When he said this, Qin Tizhi's expression couldn't help but be a little subtle: "Talented but not virtuous, unworthy of being a father." When you enter my house, you will naturally have nothing to do with him in the future. The great monk of Tianshou Temple said that his longevity was not over, and this time he was lucky, but he also ended up with a lifelong disability. You will always return your youth, and you will not be able to drag him down for a lifetime in the future - I will arrange this matter for you, and keep it so that he will never bother you again in the future. ”

These words have been said very thoroughly, and everyone present can understand Qin Tizhi's painstaking efforts: Zhang Yan's father has become a cripple, and even the most basic life needs to be taken care of from time to time, and her father is extremely worry-free, no matter who marries Zhang Yan in the future, he will have to bear a heavy burden. If she can't make a timely cut now, I'm afraid that Zhang Yan will be dragged down by her father for a lifetime in the future.

These words should have been said to be unspeakable, but Qin Tizhi openly broke this layer of window paper, and taught everyone to hold their breath to see how Zhang Yan should choose.

Zhang Yan still shook her head: "Tizhi's kindness, the little woman understands it." It's just that this kindness is really unacceptable to the little woman. ”

Qin Ti was at a loss for the second monk, and hurriedly asked what the reason was. Zhang Yan bowed to him and Cheng Qi, who had never spoken, and said, "I don't know what to do." My mother had already promised her little daughter before her death, and I and that Lang Jun were also childhood sweethearts and admired each other. It's just that now the family has changed, and the little woman is filial piety, and she can't pass through the door for three years......" She took out a bunch of cut green silk from her arms and handed it to Cheng Qi's hand in front of everyone's eyes: "Lang Jun, the concubine is a generation, and I am willing to go to Tokyo with you and travel to the limit." As for the concubine herself......" she smiled bitterly: "It is an ominous person, who has no interest in this world, and has fallen into a nun, and since then the green light ancient Buddha has a yellow scroll for a lifetime." ”

After that, she took off the pointed filial piety hat that she had been wearing on her head, and everyone saw a bare head, and the three thousand green silks were completely gone, and they couldn't help but be taken aback. Cheng Qi was even more surprised: "Yan'er...... You ......"

"Donor, from now on, there is no such person as Zhang Yan in the world, only Ni Miaoan, the maid of Guangji Temple."
