Chapter 130: Funeral for my mother-in-law's family
When I arrived at the entrance of Sujia Village, I saw a lot of people standing at Sujia, although some of these villagers came to help, but more of them came to see the excitement.
Zhao Laosan led his little lady to his mother-in-law's house, his mother-in-law looked like a withered mother, her cheeks were pale and blue, and her muddy eyes were dull.
"Mother!" As soon as Su Mi stepped into the door, she helped her mother, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried. When Su Mi saw her mother like this, her heart ached like a knife, and a pair of brown eyes with crystal clear teardrops, like beads with broken threads, hung on Bai Shengsheng's cheeks.
Su's mother hugged her daughter, and finally cried: "It's all my fault, if I pay attention, this Gu Chun Qiang will not be born prematurely and lose his life!" ”
Since Gu Chunqiang gave birth ahead of schedule, Su Mi has been blaming herself very much, if she hadn't told Gu Chunqiang to go to the vegetable field to choose vegetables that day, she wouldn't have fallen on the ridge.
When she returned home, she gave birth to a doll in her womb. This doll was born without crying, and all day long, she didn't like to eat, and now she has no mother, and she is also half-dead.
"Mother, I don't blame you for this, this is my sister-in-law's life, and it is the life of our Su family!" Su Mi wiped the tears hanging on her cheeks, helped her mother, and went to the inner room.
Gu Chunqi's coffin stopped in the hall, and Su's mother was not easy to have, so in order to bury her daughter-in-law in peace, she took out her own coffin book and bought this coffin.
Although this Gu Chunqiang's mother's family has some foundation, her daughter is not angry, and after getting married, although the two families have not had much contact. This time, Gu Chunqiang didn't survive because of the early delivery, this Gu family is a family that wants to be faced, and they have also sent people to make trouble, but they are all the mothers of the Gu family's housekeepers, and Su's mother can handle it.
Su Mi went to the inner room, which was still the same as when she got married, when her brother and sister-in-law lived. Under the coarse cloth mosquito net, on the simple bed, a doll is wrapped in a brocade cloth.
"Pity this doll!" Rao is because he wants to be a mother, and seeing this lonely doll, Su Mi's heart is particularly uncomfortable. The tears that had just stopped flowed out again, holding the doll and crying with pear blossoms and rain.
This doll is very thin, with a small face that is pale and white, without a trace of blood. Su Mi reached out and touched her cheek, a little hot.
"Mother, this doll has no milk to drink, how can I feed it?"
"This doll has a bad life, and was born in our family! Now that I have no mother, I can only feed with rice paste every day. "When I was pregnant with her, I didn't eat anything good, but now I was born more than a month prematurely, and I didn't refuse to eat rice cereal, my stomach was swollen, and I couldn't digest it.
Su Mi uncovered the brocade cloth wrapped in the doll, a pair of small hands as soft as clouds, poked her waist and abdomen, the doll always closed her eyes, Su Mi saw this, and felt that the doll was mostly sick.
"Mother, this doll has to invite a Lang Zhong to take a look, I'm afraid it's ...... I'm afraid it's not very good! Su Mi was stunned, only to feel that his back was very cold.
His patriarchal brother hasn't been home since he knew that this doll was a female doll, and he doesn't know where he's fooling around now. However, his brother Li Daniu, who was worshipping in Zhaojia Village, was busy at home, and he was all busy with his own family affairs.
"This doll, or let her go with her mother, it's pitiful in our house!" Su Mu is now carrying this doll alone, and she is also over sixty years old, this body is not as good as a day, what will happen to this doll in the future?
"What nonsense is my mother talking about? Although this doll has no mother, after all, there is still a father, it is the incense of the Su family, how can it go with the mother? Su Mi had some reproach in her words, and carefully wrapped the doll in a brocade again, revealing a white little face, holding it in her arms, like her own doll.
"Mother, I'll go to the town to see Langzhong!" Su Mi hugged the doll and walked out.
When I arrived at the hall, I saw my man carrying water and chopping wood, with bare strong arms, wearing a straw hat, half-covering a dark cheek, and busy working, and my heart was a little more peaceful.
"Husband, I'm afraid this doll is not very good, I'll take her to the town, Xue Lang will take a look!" Su Mi held the doll in her arms tightly with a pair of small hands.
Zhao Laosan put down the axe in his hand, and now that his little lady is almost four months pregnant, he can be relieved that his little lady will go to the town alone with the doll.
"Lady, I'll go with you!" After Zhao Laosan finished speaking, he wiped the sweat on his face, and prepared to wash his face and accompany his daughter-in-law to the town.
This house is a mess, and there are no serious people working, where can Su Mi let a man follow: "I have lived in Sujia Village for a year or two, and I am very familiar with each other, I will go back when I go!" ”
"No way!" Zhao Laosan's thin lips spit out words slightly, and he was more resolute and cold.
Su Mi knew that if his man said no, he would definitely not be able to, "The husband is obedient, now the Su family is inseparable, I'm afraid this doll will be gone if I don't go to see it again!" ”
Although the man attaches great importance to the Su family, his attitude towards the Su family is just for the sake of his little lady, and he is worried about the little lady: "Then you watch at home, I will go to Xue Lang with the doll, I am a man who comes and goes, and the pace is relatively fast!" ”
Seeing the two pushing and pulling, Su's mother paced out and pulled Su Mi: "My son-in-law is watching at home, and I will go to the street with Mi'er!" ”
Su Mu followed, Zhao Laosan was a little relieved, and he was afraid that this orphan and widow, and a pregnant person, had no way to do things, and brought Li Da Niu: "Da Niu, you follow Mi'er to the town!" ”
This Li Daniu and Su Binghuai became brothers, and seeing that Zhao Laosan also felt very close, he nodded and put down the work in his hand: "Don't worry, I'm a man, I must bring back the doll and the woman!" ”
Although this Li Daniu is wandering in the village and has no fixed residence, he has become a brother since he and Su Binghuai became brothers, and they have begun to get serious. Zhao Laosan saw that the three of them left Sujia Village together, Su Mi was holding the doll in his hand, and the worry in his heart was gone.
This is the first time Zhao Laosan has conducted a funeral by himself, and he doesn't know many of the etiquette himself. I only know that this Gu Chun Dump died at a young age, and there are fathers and brothers above, so the time of burial cannot be in the morning, but only after noon. Whether the people in the village want to come together for a meal depends on Su Mu's meaning.
But now, Su's mother is in a mess, she doesn't plan for the whole village to come to eat by herself, and mourn her deceased daughter-in-law, she should only invite her closest relatives and a few families who are more familiar with her.
In this way, the funeral is much simpler. It's just that the person who watched the time of burial has not yet been found, and the place where the burial is buried has not been found.
Chopped a pile of firewood, estimated that it was enough to burn today, and Zhao Laosan was ready to go to the fortune teller who looked at the land. Although he hasn't been to this Sujia Village a few times, he knows a thing or two about this Mr. Compass's house.
told Uncle Wang to look at the house, and then walked towards Mr. Luopan's Yang family. This man heard that he could reach the gods in the sky and talk to the ghosts and gods in the ground, but he did not easily show the villagers the time for burial, unless the price was given.
Walking on the ridge, Zhao Laosan touched the money bag bulging around his waist, took out five taels of silver, and put it in the upper gown. When he arrived at the Yang family, Mr. Compass was weaving a dustpan, and when he saw that the son-in-law of the Su family was coming, he stopped what he was doing: "You are finally here!" ”
"Why do you ask?" Zhao Laosan stood in front of him, and saw that he was more than seventy years old, with white hair pulled up with a bamboo hairpin, and a pair of dry and thin hands were particularly dazzling.
"Hehehe...... This man of the Su family is not like a man, Su Binghuai can't become a climate, only you can do it! After Mr. Yang finished speaking, he was not as tricky as other villagers said, took out the compass and chose a piece of land in the village, and looked at the time of burial.
After the fortune teller finished speaking, Zhao Laosan was happy, and he took five taels of silver out, and then added three taels to him.
Mr. Yang waved his hand and smiled: "The Su family's son-in-law's money is not easy to collect,!" ”
"This is the money given to you by the Su family, what does it have to do with the son-in-law of the Su family!" Zhao Laosan lowered his straw hat, covering half of his eyebrows, only revealing half of his dark cheeks, a big rough hand, put eight taels of silver on the half-woven basket, and turned around and walked towards the Su family.
Mr. Yang has seen all kinds of people over the years, and this is the first time he has seen such a cold man. This person was all over his body, and a heroic spirit that he didn't dare to approach made him feel a little shocked in his heart.
After Zhao Laosan returned home, according to Mr. Yang's words, he re-placed his sister-in-law's coffin in the hall and added some incense, candles and offerings. Since he went through the ghost gate eight years ago, he no longer believes in any ghosts and gods, but in order to comfort his mother-in-law, he still does what Mr. Yang said.
Su Mi and his mother took the doll to Xue Langzhong, originally Xue Langzhong was closed and did not accept patients, but the apprentice told him that he was the little lady of Zhao Laosan's family, and he opened the door to welcome in.
As soon as he entered the door, Xue Langzhong saw the doll in Su Mi's arms, so he frowned, and reached out to take the doll: "Whose doll is this, I'm about to breathe!" ”
As soon as he heard this, Su Mi's heart chuckled, and his mind was confused. Su's mother supported her daughter and wiped her tears vigorously: "This ...... This is my granddaughter! ”
Seeing that it was someone from Zhao Laosan's mother-in-law's mother's family, this Xue Langzhong put away the enthusiasm on his face, hugged the doll and handed it to Su Mi: "Go back, this doll is not saved!" ”
"Xue Langzhong, it was my man who asked me to come, this is also a human life, you are Hua Tuo in this town, I know you must have a way!" His sister-in-law is gone, and now this doll is congenitally insufficient, Su Mi can no longer watch it, and this doll is gone.
Seeing that Su's mother was crying with pear blossoms and rain, Xue Langzhong's heart was entangled, and he dropped the medicine residue in his hand: "Oops! I said that Zhao Laosan has created some evil, and I am also involved! ”
