It was Qiu Er's grandmother who reacted first.

She sighed loudly with joy: "Fourth brother, congratulations, you are going to be a father!" Mother, congratulations, you're going to be a grandma again! ”

Mrs. Mo San also reacted, and recited the Buddha number a few times in her heart, and all the dissatisfaction with Grandma Li Si flew out of the clouds, and she was happy in her heart, and couldn't help but look at Ruan Chuli a little overwhelmed: "Fourth, your daughter-in-law just got pregnant, and you are angry with her like this, it's really unusual!" ”

Ruan Chuli couldn't care about Mrs. Mo's reproach, and touched her head with a smirk: "Hey? I'm going to be a dad? I'm going to be a dad! ”

……

The news of Grandma Li Si's pregnancy flew all over the Pingguo Mansion like wings.

Probably because of the haze of the death of the second master Ruan's illegitimate son shrouded the Pingguo Mansion, and now when he heard such a happy event, everyone's hearts were very excited, so it spread faster, and everyone wanted to get a touch of this joy.

At this moment, even the old lady who was playing cards in the Fuyuan Hall knew that Grandma Li Si was pregnant.

The old lady of Pingguo was very happy, and urged the green warbler with joyful voices, and asked the green warbler to open her treasury, and picked some supplements in it to send to the fourth granddaughter-in-law.

It's really not easy, it's been almost four years since her fourth granddaughter-in-law entered the door, and there has been no news about her stomach, every time she comes to say goodbye, the old lady sees that the fourth granddaughter-in-law has no confidence, and she looks cowardly and cowardly.

Now that this is finally there, it means that there is no problem with the little two, and it will be a lot of money in the future!

This elderly person likes to see the happy events imported by Tian Ding the most, and the old lady is very happy.

After Fang Hanniang took a nap, she came to the old lady to accompany the old lady, and when she heard such news, she was also happy for her fourth cousin, and she thought in her heart that she wanted to take the time to go over and see Grandma Li.

After the old lady of Pingguo was happy, she felt a little worried about Grandma Li Si, and hurriedly went to tell Lu Ying to send something for her: "Isn't it that you have to hide it from the first three months of pregnancy, it's better to be careful, and tell everyone not to spread it anymore, just let the people in your own family know." ”

The green warbler smiled as it should be.

It was probably because this child was not easy to come, and people like the old lady of Pingguo who didn't believe those words couldn't help but be cautious.

Fang Hanniang said with a smile: "Grandmother, don't worry, our Pingguo Mansion is an auspicious place, and the fourth cousin-in-law is also blessed." ”

The old lady of Pingguo was very happy to hear it.

There is a joyful atmosphere both inside and outside the Fleur Hall.

Compared with Fuyuan Hall, the second room, especially the side courtyard of the second room, can be said to be gloomy.

Kong Chuhua's body is still here.

Since Kong fainted and woke up, he had been crying for a long time in front of the bed where Kong Chuhua's body was parked, and his voice was hoarse.

Second Master Ruan sat in the hall without saying a word, looking up at Kong Chuhua's body from time to time, and his expression was also depressed.

The rest of the waiters were silent.

Finally, as if he had made up his mind, Second Master Ruan got up and said to Kong: "The child can't be delayed, I will send someone to find a tomb in the outer mountains for a while, and let him be buried in the ground." ”

There are funeral posts everywhere in the outer mountains, although it is not a mass grave, but because of the large number of graves, except for some days of worship, few people go, desolate and silent.

Kong's eyes widened and he looked at Second Master Ruan in disbelief.

She couldn't believe what she heard, what the second master meant, was she not allowed to let her son enter the ancestral grave of the Ruan family, and she wanted to find a random place to bury it?

"Sir!" Kong Shi said sadly, "Hua'er is also your son!" Can you bear to leave him alone without sacrifices! When we are a hundred years later, who will remember Hua'er! ”

Second Master Ruan looked depressed, compared to Kong Chuhua before he died, he looked like he was ten years older, and obviously the grief in his heart was no less than that of Kong.

He said coldly: "This is the rule of the Ruan family, Hua'er is under the age of ten, it is an early death, and it cannot be buried in the ancestral grave of the Ruan family." If you don't agree, then you can find a place to bury Hua'er yourself. ”

Kong's family couldn't believe it, Second Master Ruan was still holding her Hua'er yesterday and praised her Hua'er for being smart and clever, full of fatherly love overflowing. Today, Hua'er died, this kind of funeral event, he was so ruthless!

However, Second Mrs. An could point at Second Master Ruan's nose and scold, but Kong didn't dare.

She bit her lower lip stubbornly, and after some ideological struggle, she finally bowed her head and softened: "Concubine, concubine listens to the master." ”

After all, her Hua'er is gone, and she is still alive.

It is not beneficial for her to offend Second Master Ruan at the moment.

She will have to rely on Ruan Er to live in the future.

Kong Shi quickly made up his mind, stroked Kong Chuhua's face with his hand, and cried: "Master, you are the head of the family and the father of the child, since you said so, the concubine will not object." But Hua'er, Hua'er is your child after all, and when he is buried, he can't let him bear my surname. ”

This is to correct Kong Chuhua's name.

Second Master Ruan's expression was gloomy, and his voice was a little hoarse: "What's the matter with the surname Ruan and the surname Kong...... Hua'er can't be on the family tree after all......"

In other words, in terms of genealogy, the Ruan family does not recognize Kong Chuhua as a child of their Ruan family!

Kong's face turned even paler, she was trembling, and she couldn't say a word.

The atmosphere in the room was very oppressive.

Second Master Ruan knew that he couldn't stand the couple, he couldn't bear to stay any longer, and went out with a sad expression.

Kong cried loudly in the house.

……

Second Mrs. An also heard that Grandma Li Si was pregnant.

She smiled viciously, high-fived and praised: "This is a great event for our Ruan Mansion, I have to congratulate my fourth nephew and daughter-in-law!" ”

Yes, that's how it should be, everyone should be happy for the unborn child!

What a bastard, he doesn't deserve to let the people in the house mourn him!

What kind of identity is he!

Ruan Chubai was lying on the bed weakly, he had just finished drinking the medicine, his fever had subsided a little, and his spirit had recovered a little. He said to Second Mrs. An: "Mother, the child's business...... What are you going to do? ”

The kid?

Second Mrs. An was stunned for a moment, only to realize that Ruan Chubai was talking about Kong Chuhua, the outer room.

Second Mrs. An didn't expect that Ruan Chubai had heard that the illegitimate child was gone, she sat on the side of Ruan Chubai's bed, and said disapprovingly: "That's an unlucky and unlucky one, you are sick, don't mention him...... is just an illegitimate child, where is the blessing to make others miss him! ”

Ruan Chubai smiled weakly, lowered his eyes, and said lightly: "Anyway, he is my younger brother after all......"

These words seemed to poke one of Mrs. An's nerves, she was suddenly excited, and her voice was raised enough: "Bai'er, are you burned!" What kind of brother is he! It's just an illegitimate child of a lowly life! …… You are the fifth young master of the Ruan Mansion, how can he be compared to you! ”

Ruan Chubai was not frightened by his mother's sudden excitement, he still lowered his eyes, his expression was weak, but his tone was light: "Mother, you don't have to hide it from me anymore." I know that my father gave birth to him to replace me. If I die one day, he will inherit our second ......."

Before she finished speaking, Second Lady An already looked like she was being stabbed fiercely, stared at her, and covered Ruan Chubai's mouth.

Second Lady An said incoherently and anxiously: "Bai'er, I don't allow you to say that!" What do you think! How dare your father! How to match that little cub! …… No one can replace you! You are the son-in-law of our branch and the only heir of our branch! …… He's dead! No one can replace you! ”

Ruan Chubai's expression seemed to be a little uncomfortable, and the startled Second Lady An hurriedly let go of her hand, and was at a loss again: "Bai'er, are you okay?!" Bai'er, my mother didn't mean to ......"

Ruan Chu took a few breaths in vain, and his expression slowly recovered, and when he saw that Second Mrs. An had tears in her eyes, she was lying on the side of the bed and looking at him with self-blame, he couldn't help but comfort him: "Mother...... Rest assured, I'm fine...... You're right, he's dead, and no one can replace me...... I'm the only ......."

Second Lady An nodded in a panic, buried her head on Ruan Chubai, and muttered, "Yes, Bai'er, you are the only ...... Mother is only you......"

The corners of Ruan Chubai's mouth showed a very shallow smile, which was fleeting.

……

Kong Chuhua's coffin, before dawn the next day, was carried by several people, quietly went out of the side door and went outside the city.

Kong's whole body was white, and he followed the coffin, crying all the way, and scattering paper money all the way.

Second Master Ruan did not appear.

The wind and snow did not stop, and the mourners were deep and shallow in the snow, and the traces of walking behind them were slowly covered by the wind and snow, just like Kong Chuhua's life, which was also covered by the wind and snow......

Kong cried all the way to the spirit.

Because the wind and snow were too big, the land was frozen and hard, and there was no way to bury it, so Kong Chuhua's coffin stopped at Yizhuang outside the city.

It's just that as soon as the funeral procession entered Yizhuang, they were stunned.

In Yizhuang, there were many beggars in ragged clothes.

The wind and snow were too big, and these beggars, who had no tiles to cover themselves, naturally couldn't survive outside, so they had to hide in Yizhuang regardless of avoidance.

My life is almost gone, what the hell are you afraid of?

Rao is like this, and because the wind and snow are too strong, these beggars have nowhere to beg, they are poorly clothed, hungry and cold, and many people have frozen to death in the past few days.

Kong saw those beggars, but he was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe.

She remembered that the reason why her son was frozen to death was because two beggars had stripped her son of his clothes!

Although the two beggars were later directly sent to the official by Second Master Ruan, now that Kong saw the beggars, his heart still rose with indelible disgust and hatred.

Especially, when she saw the beggars looking greedily at her son's coffin, as if they were going to wait for them to leave, and then went to pick up her son's shroud, Kong Shi couldn't hold back anymore and broke out.

Her voice was terrible, and she supported the funeral families: "Hurry up and drive these beggars out!" ”
