When she said this, she praised Qin Zheng and his wife, but Gu Jiu just smiled faintly and said, "The second aunt is too ridiculous, we are just juniors, where can we count on hope." ”

When she said this, she smiled again: "Besides, the children in the family are not bad with the cultivation of you and the second uncle." ”

Hearing her praise her children, the second lady pursed her lips and smiled: "Those are all stubborn, and after returning to Beijing in a few years, I have to rely on Zheng'er's guidance as an elder brother." ”

Hearing her words, Gu Jiu didn't object, just chuckled and said, "That's natural." ”

Compared to the rest of the Qin family, the second room at least didn't have so many bad intentions, or rather, their thinking was within the normal range.

Gu Jiu naturally couldn't really break with all the relatives of the Qin family, and the two rooms could intersect.

The second lady was not in a hurry to leave, Gu Jiu sat and talked with her, and when it was almost time to eat, she got up first and said goodbye: "A few children have been brought over, and I don't know if there is peace in the house, I have to go back and watch." ”

This time, only Qin Zhijin didn't come with him, and it was because the second lady didn't want her to be contaminated with bad luck, as for the three little boys, they were all brought over.

After all, they are men, different from girls, if they are not there at the funeral, they will be talked about by outsiders.

Hearing this, Gu Jiu didn't leave her alone, but only smiled and said, "If the second aunt is free one day, you can bring the children to play." ”

She released kindness, and I would naturally not refuse as Mrs. Ru, and said with a busy smile: "That's natural." ”

The two of them said a few words at the door, and seeing that it was not too early, the second lady took her leave.

It's just that before leaving, he asked tentatively: "It's just that I won't go for these two days, and on the day of the funeral of the sunrise, you and Zheng'er should go over." ”

Originally, she wanted to make peace with it, but knowing that Gu Jiu was poisoned, she knew that she couldn't control this matter. But he can take advantage of this matter to go back and beat his husband again, and he will be in the same way as the eldest brother.

As for letting Gu Jiu and them go over on the day of their funeral, it was really good for them.

It's a junior.

Hearing the second lady's words, Gu Jiu nodded and responded: "Thank you for the second aunt's reminder, don't worry, my day will pass early in the morning." ”

Unlike these days, the day of the funeral was a big show, and she didn't plan to be embarrassed on that day.

With her words, the second lady was a lot more relieved.

At least Gu Jiu was willing to agree, which showed that she didn't plan to tear her face.

The second lady breathed a sigh of relief and told Gu Jiu to stay, while she went out with the maid.

After sending the person away, Gu Jiu pinched his eyebrows and sighed faintly.

Baizhu quickly went and returned, and when he saw her come back, Gu Jiu explained a few more words: "You asked people to go to the shop, take the jewelry I explained some time ago, and then go to Jinyuzhai to get two sets of top-grade rouge gouache." In addition, let Mama Zhao look at the specifications of the past and prepare them for Miss Five. ”

Qin Zhijin's marriage seems to be a certainty. That being the case, she had to prepare the gifts, at least not to be talked about.

Baizhu went out in response, and Gu Jiu continued to go back to the room to practice calligraphy.

……

On the day of the funeral, Gu Jiu really did as he said, and went to Mingyang Bofu with Qin Zheng early in the morning.

When they went, the sky had just dawned, and the house was full of plain silk flowers.

Gu Jiu took the filial piety clothes from the hands of his subordinates, and went to the side room to change them together, and then went to the main hall.

In the past, Qin Zhao invited their husband and wife over again and again, but neither of them gave face.

He felt a little unable to pull his face, and when he saw Qin Zheng and his wife, he only nodded lightly.

On the contrary, the second master was particularly enthusiastic, and when he saw Qin Zheng, he asked in a low voice: "Look at your face is not very good, but you haven't rested well at night?" ”

Qin Zheng greeted him softly, and the second lady on the side asked Gu Jiu softly: "Ah Jiu can eat, come with me to the Little Flower Hall to eat a little?" ”

When Gu Jiu heard this, he knew that the second lady wanted her to stagger the embarrassing situation in the main hall, so he nodded and responded, "Thank you, second aunt." ”

She had actually eaten it, but she still went to the Little Flower Hall with the second lady.

Unlike the tense situation in the main hall, there are only the two of them here, and it can be regarded as quiet.

Gu Jiu noticed the difference in the mansion at first, and finally had time to ask: "Second aunt, is the mansion now in charge of you?" ”

This time, it is very different from the last time, and at a glance, you can see that it must have cost money, otherwise it would not be so perfect. 117

Hearing this, the second lady didn't hide it from her, sighed, lowered her voice and said, "You know your second uncle's temper, he is a filial son." ”

According to her thoughts, the old lady is at the funeral, and no matter how you look at it, this matter has to be the housekeeper. But Qin Zhao insisted that he had no money, what could they do?

rushed back from thousands of miles to mourn, and you can't just put it aside because of this matter.

Seeing this, Gu Jiu suddenly understood, because he said: "Since you are in charge, you will order the steward to go over and look at the gift list later." ”

As soon as these words came out, the second lady was surprised, she glanced at Gu Jiu, and laughed softly: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, your thoughts coincide with me." ”

The second lady naturally refused to give money for nothing, and let her pay for it, but the gift money that came to give gifts had to be taken by herself.

Qin Zhao also agreed to this matter, otherwise the second lady would be so easy to relax.

But she didn't expect that Gu Jiu would give herself such an idea.

This also shows that Qin Zhao's father-in-law is really separated from his son and daughter-in-law.

That's a good thing.

At least for the second lady, it's a good thing.

Therefore, after the second lady said this, she laughed softly: "I won't tell you, I can't actually receive much gift money, I just can't get used to the uncle's virtue." ”

Hearing this, Gu Jiu only pursed his lips and smiled, but he didn't say much.

There are some things that she thinks in her heart can be, but if she says them, it won't look good.

The second lady didn't care about this, she talked to Gu Jiu for a while, saw that the people served the food, and greeted her with a smile.

After eating, it was dawn.

Outside, it was already playing, mournful and sad.

The number of guests who came to mourn gradually increased, and Gu Jiu went outside the mourning hall with the second lady.

After the guests finished mourning, they kowtowed to those filial sons and grandsons, and then the coffin was lifted by the coffin bearer, and the group walked towards the ancestral tomb.

Gu Jiu and Qin Zheng were both among them, both from the Qin family before and after, and their eyes were full of white.

In the depths of winter, there is a slight chill.

The crying is now a little more real, mixed with mournful music, walking on this long street, but people's hearts are even more cold.

The paper money was sprinkled into the sky, and Gu Jiu subconsciously glanced at the paper money that was thrown up and fell to the ground, but he was inexplicably in a trance.

It is said that the world is impermanent, but it was only at this moment that she really realized the word.

Speaking of which, when she died in her previous life, Old Madam Qin was still in good health, and she didn't want to live in this life, but the other party was gone so early.

The Qin family is about to collapse like a building, and everyone who lives in this mansion is responsible, and Mrs. Qin is the initiator of removing the beams.

However, it is not as in the past, and with her burial today, it will be forgotten like the loess.

The ancestral tomb of the Qin family is located in the west of the suburbs of Beijing, it is a rare feng shui treasure, when the tomb was built, because of the status of the old Ming Guogong, it was built by the emperor and the people of Qin Tianjian together.

There are very few such honors in Xichu.

And now, this tomb, which has been closed for more than ten years, has been opened again, and the coffin of Old Lady Qin has also been sent in.

Gu Jiu, as a female dependent, was originally yin, and she was a daughter-in-law, so naturally she couldn't go in at this time.

As the eldest grandson, Qin Zheng entered the tomb with the coffin bearer.

The waiting time seemed to be extremely long, but after Qin Zheng came out, she felt that she was in a trance for only a moment.

When Qin Zheng walked in front of her, Gu Jiu clearly felt his hand trembling slightly.

What is that, Gu Jiu knows it.

Inside the tomb lay his grandfather.

But over the years, I am afraid that it has already become a piece of loess.
