Gu Weiyu didn't sleep all night, running back and forth with Dazong in Xifu, that is, he didn't find Tao Fuzi or Cheng Fuzi, and the families of both families said that they were not at home. By the time he collapsed on the bed, it was almost 3 a.m.

But after a cup of tea, he jumped up from the bed.

Not good! Today is the day of Weihong's funeral.

He anxiously ordered the maid to dress him, and Mrs. Dong slept in a daze, and when she saw her husband get up, she couldn't help muttering why she got up so early.

was scolded by Gu Weiyu in front of the maid and mother-in-law.

Mrs. Dong was so angry that her eyes widened......

South of the city, two alleys.

The outer three rooms shrouded in darkness are brightly lit. Since last night, many neighbors have come to pay their respects with four-color paper gifts.

When Gu Mengping arrived, Lao Anren was standing outside the courtyard talking to two old scholars of the same age.

Seeing a man in a monk's robe coming, and the old man greeted him with a smile, one of the old scholars couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Lao Anren smiled and introduced Gu Mengping to the two of them, "This is Master Tao, the word is clear; This is Cheng Fuzi, the word Zeyou, both of whom are friends of the same year as the old woman's first husband. This is the senior disciple of Master Mingkong of Fenglin Temple, and these days Wei Hong and You Clan's funerals are thanks to this ...... The last sentence of the child's ...... was to introduce Gu Mengping to the two masters.

Gu Mengping didn't feel anything yet, but the two masters set off turbulent waves in their hearts.

Didn't Lao An know that Master Mingkong was taking in Gu Weisheng's concubine? It can be seen that Lao Anren looked at Gu Mengping as usual, and the two glanced at each other and swallowed the words back into their stomachs.

"But I don't know who is the one who threw the old pot and carried the banner today?" Tao Fuzi cleared his throat.

The corners of Lao Anren's mouth twitched, and he forced a smile: "It's Jiamu!" ”

"It's not that Xifu wants to ...... the heir" As soon as Cheng Fuzi said this, he was poked by Tao Fuzi with his finger, and he never said any more.

Tao Fuzi glanced at Gu Mengping, who was standing next to him with his hands tied, and said, "I don't know if the lord of the shrine and the person who greeted the road sacrifice have been selected?" He said that the main point of the niche is to use a cinnabar pen to add a little bit to the original word "king" on the tablet, so that the word "king" becomes the word "lord". It is commonly known as "becoming a master", that is, it means to become a god.

It stands to reason that Gu Weihong died in vain and could not be blamed, but he died wrongedly, and his wife died heroically.

Lao Anren was a little excited when he heard this, and bowed solemnly to Tao Fuzi.

"It's not that I don't want to point to the master, it's really not enough ability, I have invited the Confucian teachings of this county to come and ask him to point the master for Weihong and his wife." Tao Fuzi sighed, "As for the people who greet the road sacrifice, I and Brother Zeyou are in charge." ”

"Thank you, two masters, Gao Yi." Lao Anren almost cried, and kept wiping the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, "If it's inconvenient, then the main seat doesn't need to be ordered." She was afraid that the teachings would be hated by the people of Xifu.

Tao Fuzi shook his head and said in a low voice: "The teachings and I are my sons and daughters, what is convenient and inconvenient?" "His youngest son is a proud protégé of the Taoist in this province, so he is naturally not afraid of the people of the Gu Mansion.

Cheng Fuzi also spoke out to persuade her.

Gu Mengping stood beside him, but he was shocked to hear it. The two masters are actually the teaching masters of the Gu clan, and when they appear here, did they turn their faces with the Gu family? The master who taught turned his face against the main family and openly attended the funeral of the outer three rooms, I am afraid that the Gu family will cause big trouble.

But he didn't have time to think about it, because it was about to be the auspicious time for the funeral, and Gu Mengping walked behind the coffin with a wooden fish.

Liangbang Lane, the cry immediately shook the sky.

If Lao An hadn't been supported by someone, he would have almost fainted to the ground.

Before he got out of the alley, Gu Mengping felt that there was a familiar figure among the people supporting the coffin.

There are also a few more monks who knock on the wooden fish by hand.

Gu Mengping looked at Gu Weiyu, Gu Weiyue looked at him, and greeted each other.

After going around Suiping for a week, Gu Mengping realized that the funeral procession had walked for three hours, when it was clear that it could be completed in half an hour.

At every intersection, there are street festivals set up by neighbors. There were also many beggars in ragged clothes and people dressed in short brown kneeling on the side of the road, kowtowing to the coffin.

When she walked near the East Mansion, Mrs. Dong was dressed in white linen clothes, saluted with a solemn face, and followed by Gu Boyo, who was holding a spirit card.

Outside the Great Sect, the old patriarch stood tremblingly in the spirit shed with a cane......

The whole Suiping seemed to be immersed in sadness.

Only the gate of the West Mansion was closed, and the courtyard was dark and quiet, and no sound came out.

……

Xie was very painful and angry, but there was more shame in his heart.

It has been justice since ancient times that people kill to pay for their lives and pay off debts.

What's more, it was his own relatives who were killed......

When she knew that Zhongkang was going to inherit the heir of Zhongkang in the outer third room, although she was dissatisfied and reluctant, in the end, reason prevailed over mother's love.

The father's debt is repaid by the son, and the heavenly way is circulated.

Listening to the funeral music from far to near, from near to far, she turned her head and talked to Mama Qiu, "The ancestor's move has cut off the qi of Xifu. ”

Mama Qiu didn't dare to answer this, but lowered her head.

Xie Shi looked out the window, only to see a morning star hanging in the east that was about to dawn, and after looking at it for a long time, she muttered: "I think I should come to the capital to believe in this meeting." ”

Mama Qiu knew that the letter Xie was referring to the letter sent to the capital by her husband, and after thinking about it, she said: "Most likely this will come, otherwise the wife will squint for a while, the day is already dawn, and she will have to ask the ancestor for peace later." ”

"Greetings?" Xie Shi was furious when she heard these two words, she stood up abruptly and circled the house twice, "I ordered to build a spiritual shed to send Wei Hong and his wife today, and she will have someone dismantle it." Xifu has lost all the people today, and she still has the face to ask me to go and ask for peace? ”

Mama Qiu knew that she had said the wrong thing, and she took a few steps back in fright.

Xie Shi glanced at her, then looked at the empty red lacquer play baby rosewood bed, and said angrily: "Where is the fourth master?" ”

Mama Qiu didn't dare to speak, and flirted her eyelids at the jade house.

Xie Shi suddenly trembled with anger, picked up a blue-glazed lotus porcelain bowl and smashed it to the ground, the porcelain hit the ground with a crisp sound, and the porcelain bowl shattered into several pieces.

……

In the afternoon, the whole funeral service ended.

The neighbors carried Jiamu and Lao Anren, who had passed out from crying, back to the outer third room.

Gu Mengping and Gu Wei ran before and after running to preside over things.

Gu Mengping is just that, and others don't know his true identity, but Gu Weiyu, an official of the imperial court, is willing to be driven in the third room outside.

It made everyone's eyes fall sharply.

Those clansmen who were originally afraid to attend the funeral also hurried to mourn.

Although they came a little late.

After waking up slowly, Lao An was stunned for a long time when he heard Wei Sanhun's family talk about these things.

She invited Gu Weiyu to talk to Gu Mengping.

Gu Weiyu's face was full of guilt, and he made a big gift as soon as he entered the house.

Gu Mengping didn't dare to slack off, and followed behind Gu Weiyu.

Lao Anren first looked at Gu Weiyu, then at Gu Mengping, and then sighed deeply, "Why does Uncle Yue treat his wife like this?" ”

Gu Weiyue lowered his head and maintained the posture of a chief executive, "It's just because Weiyu is ashamed!" There are regrets! ”

Lao Anren sighed again, and tried to stand up, but after standing a few times but finally fell back on the chair, she smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Uncle Yue's heart, the old woman has received it!" The old woman also understands, she knows, and she understands. But Uncle Yue also has to consider the situation of the old woman......" She softly evoked Wei Hong's name.

"Widowed at an early age, widowed in old age, and has no grandchildren......"

"Uncle Yue, if you are replaced, what will you do?"

"What will you do if someone kills your father and forces your mother to die?"

"Or, if someone kills Poyo and forces Poyo's wife to die, what will you do?"

Gu Weiyu 'pedaled' and took three steps back.

After a long time, he said astringently: "My nephew is willing to discuss with Xifu again, and I hope that my aunt will give me some more time." ”

"Give you time?" Lao Anren smiled bitterly, "Who gave the old woman time?" ”

As she spoke, she placed a blood-stained handkerchief on the table, "The old woman doesn't have much time. ”

Gu Weiyu and Gu Mengping were immediately stunned, their faces turned pale with horror.

"Lao Anren ......" Gu Mengping was about to speak, but was pressed back to the bottom of his tongue by the voice behind him.

"Xuantang, don't worry, and listen to me......"

Everyone, turned their heads to the door.
