Touching her round belly, Jiang Xiaotuan walked in front of her head in the night, and Ling Mubai was behind her, not far away.

"The dumplings made by the aunt of the Sun family are really a must, as soon as I heard that the aunt's family made dumplings, I secretly ran here, no wonder, even I still want to eat them." Jiang Xiaotuan burped and said, in fact, no matter how delicious things are, she is not a child, so she will not eat so much, it is really the daughter-in-law of the Sun family who is too enthusiastic, and she vigorously sandwiches vegetables and dumplings for her, Jiang Xiaotuan is full, and she added five or six dumplings.

She also persuaded Ling Mubai to eat more, but it was the first time they met, and it was not easy to pick up the vegetables, Ling Mubai didn't have the support to eat, but he also felt the simplicity and hospitality of the countrymen.

Of course, Jiang Xiaotuan didn't go empty-handed, she brought the small gifts she had prepared early in the morning to the Sun family, these were all gadgets brought back from the capital, as well as Jiang Xiaotuan's own small head flowers and hair accessories, the little girl of the Sun family liked it very much.

The night was hazy, as if putting a veil on Jiang Xiaotuan, and her gestures had a little more charm, I don't know whose dog heard the movement and barked wildly, breaking the quiet scene.

The local atmosphere blowing in the face is the time of the autumn harvest, and every family sleeps very early, rests well, and has the strength to harvest the crops tomorrow.

However, Uncle Sun had already told Jiang Xiaotuan that he would find a few people to help bury Jiang Shixian, anyway, he would dig a pit and bury it, and it would not take much effort to delay the work.

This saved Jiang Xiaotuan from looking for it from house to house, but Jiang Xiaotuan also said that she would not let everyone help in vain, and the people in the village who helped with red and white ceremonies would not let everyone be empty-handed, most of them were given some rice and meat, Jiang Xiaotuan felt that it was the most affordable to give money, and he could buy whatever he wanted, and it was good to save it if he didn't want to buy it.

Uncle Sun said no, people are like this when they have a funeral and a big job, she is not troublesome, but Jiang Xiaotuan insisted, and later he said, just give it to others, he doesn't want his share.

Jiang Xiaotuan didn't say much, she had to give it anyway.

The next day, Jiang Xiaotuan also got up very early, and as soon as he cleaned up, the uncle of the Sun family took someone outside to shout, Jiang Xiaotuan didn't want to call Ling Mubai, this was not a good thing, I wanted him to rest at home, she would come back soon.

But Ling Mubai had to follow to see, Jiang Xiaotuan was helpless, what was there to see in the burial, but he insisted, and she didn't stop him.

There was no drum music, no crying reluctance, Jiang Xiaotuan held Jiang Shixian's ash jar, walked in front of everyone, and walked towards the cemetery of the Jiang family in Houshan.

The reason why Jiang Xiaotuan knew was because three years ago, Jiang Shixian disappeared, and Mrs. Jiang gave him a funeral, and Jiang Xiaotuan went to the cemetery with Jiang Shixian's clothes at that time, so this time it was also a familiar road, and he didn't even have to choose the location of the tomb.

Back then, Mrs. Jiang also did it once, and earned some sympathy money from the villagers, but unfortunately she didn't give her mother a penny.

Dig a pit, put the ashes jar down, bury some soil, and a new grave will be built.

The uncle of the Sun family saw that Jiang Xiaotuan had no tears from beginning to end, thinking that this scene was a little weird, "Xiaotuan, cry twice!" ”

The big guy looked at it, he was also good for Jiang Xiaotuan, otherwise it would have been spread out, Lao Tzu would be buried, and he wouldn't even cry when he was a girl, which is not like words.

However, Jiang Xiaotuan shook her head, she was too lazy to do this, to be honest, Jiang Shixian died, she was not sad, and she sent his ashes back from afar, which was already benevolent and righteous.

"No need, let's go."

When going down the mountain, Jiang Xiaotuan distributed the salary of 50 wen per person that had been prepared long ago to the big guys, of course everyone refused, but under Jiang Xiaotuan's repeated insistence, he finally accepted it.

Uncle Sun insisted on not to, "I'll forget it, just work hard for a while, and I don't have any strength, and other people can't give so much to carry the coffin, forget it." ”

"You just take it, help me make a morning of the morning, other families will provide food, I save all this, you can take the pot and drink it."

Jiang Xiaotuan still gave the money to Uncle Sun's uncle in the end, and then went home at the intersection, and they had to pack up and harvest the crops.

Jiang Xiaotuan from a distance saw a few people standing at the door of his house, and he was so recognizable that it was impossible not to know him.

"Ah, you're back, where did you go?" Zhang Fengying still didn't change her shocked temperament, and shouted loudly.

Mrs. Jiang glanced at Jiang Xiaotuan, and Jiang Shijiu behind her didn't know if he had been waiting for a long time or was tired of standing, so he walked impatiently, and he didn't have a good face when he saw Jiang Xiaotuan.

Jiang Xiaotuan strode over, Mrs. Jiang had a trouble with here yesterday, and she didn't get a bargain, especially since she knew Ling Mubai's identity, she didn't dare to make a mistake.

In the end, I went to the capital more than the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, and I gained some knowledge.

Jiang Shijiu didn't know this, his eyebrows were cold, "I didn't go home just now," he glanced at Ling Mubai again, and wanted to say something, but was frightened away by Ling Mubai's indifferent eyes, "Why don't you call people." ”

Jiang Xiaotuan had long been accustomed to their self-righteousness, she took a deep breath and said coldly, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Jiang Shijiu was very dissatisfied with her tone, "What do you mean something?" Your father is dead, such a big matter, let's help you Zhang Luo Zhang Luo, how to do it. ”

"That's right, you little girl's family, how do you know these doorways, since everyone is gone, don't say anything else, your father is a person with status, you have to do a big job, I have found someone to show you, three days later it will be a good day, suitable for burial." Zhang Fengying said, and Mrs. Jiang also nodded on the side. 33

Jiang Xiaotuan sneered, "No need, he's already buried." ”

"What?" Jiang Shijiu raised his voice, "Buried?" Who did you tell me, you girl, you have something wrong with your brain, right? ”

The official's younger brother left, Jiang Shijiu felt that this girl was about to come back from the capital, and after she came back, she still had to live in the village, and the future affairs had to be decided by her own elders.

Jiang Xiaotuan glanced at him coldly, "I brought the ashes back, so I naturally have the right to choose when to be buried." ”

"You...... It's all ashes, and it's not that you can't let it go, so you have to do it, your father...... Your father is a big official, you just buried him in such a hurry, you ...... What do you think? ”

Jiang Xiaotuan shook his head, "I have to remind you, what about him, he was indeed a fifth-grade official before, and in your opinion, he may not be able to go down, but in a place like the capital, a brick can be thrown down, and seven or eight officials like him can be stoned to death, and the remaining two or three are still bigger than him." ”

Although it is not as exaggerated as she said, Mrs. Jiang has been taught, and she casually ran into a character she couldn't provoke, that is, the capital.

"It doesn't matter if he is a big official, but because of your daughter's troubles, he has been dismissed, so he is now a flat-headed commoner, as for the funeral, didn't he do it once three years ago? Didn't you get enough money at that time? ”

"You...... What are you talking about, this girl, I am thinking about your father's decency, why don't you have money. Jiang Shijiu hurriedly said.

Old Madam Jiang took a deep breath, "You...... Your father is no longer an official? ”

"Not anymore."

"Oops~" Mrs. Jiang subconsciously covered her chest, where she was beating uncontrollably, but she persuaded herself, it's okay, even if she is not an official, there is such a big house, which is enough for her to support her for the elderly.

"That'...... Why didn't the little fortunate couple come back with you, it's too unpleasant, and they can't be buried. Mrs. Jiang complained.

Jiang Xiaotuan sneered and said: "He has broken off the relationship with the second lady of the Yin family, was kicked out of the mansion, and lived in a small courtyard with Yun Niang before he died, but after his death, Yun Niang has sold the small courtyard and is missing." ”

Jiang Xiaotuan once again broke off all the thoughts of Mrs. Jiang, and Mrs. Jiang was stunned in place, "That ......"

"So what should I do?" Old Mrs. Jiang cried sadly.

Jiang Xiaotuan shrugged his shoulders and begged for more blessings.

"Don't stand in front of my house if there's nothing to do, I woke up too early in the morning, I need to sleep now." Jiang Xiaotuan unlocked the door in front of several people, and turned his head to look at Ling Mubai, "Aren't you tired?" ”

"I'm tired." After Ling Mubai finished speaking, he dodged and slipped into the door, and then locked it from the inside before Jiang Shijiu pushed the door.

Jiang Xiaotuan really wanted to sleep and didn't want to be disturbed, "Others don't know, you have seen him, you know what his identity is, and his temper is not very good, if you fall asleep and are noisy, something happened, don't blame me for not reminding you." ”

Jiang Xiaotuan's words were obviously said to Mrs. Jiang, she was crying, and suddenly as if someone had choked her, she stopped crying, and she didn't dare to come out.

Zhang Fengying snorted coldly, "What kind of identity, the one you said is mysterious." ”

Old Lady Jiang glared at her, "Shut up, boss, let's go." ”

Jiang Shijiu was not very reluctant, "Mother, there is no one in this girl's head, she just owes a lesson, and she doesn't know how the old and second ones discipline her, and when she comes back, she still has to clean up, otherwise there are still elders in her eyes?" ”

Come back?

Jiang Xiaotuan, who was just about to enter the house, shook her head, ridiculous, when did she say she was coming back?

Mrs. Jiang waved her hand, this person came with her, I'm afraid that the dead girl won't be able to come back, "Why so much nonsense, let you go." ”

"Mother......

"If you don't leave, I'll go, and the people there will lose their temper later, and you can carry it yourself."

"I don't understand, what is his origin, look at you scared."

Old Madam Jiang didn't hide it from them, but she didn't bother to say, "Oh, big man, you can't afford to mess with it, hurry up, I don't want to live." ”

Zhang Fengying asked curiously: "Mother, how big is it?" Which family's son? ”

Old Mrs. Jiang shook her head, feeling that the eldest son was too unknowledgeable, "Childe? What do you think, people are the prince, does the prince know? ”
