403 If there is an afterlife

"Wait......" Lu Zhentang said with difficulty.

"Up." Ruan Xiaoji didn't hear his words, and gave an order, leaving only a piece of paper money.

The other villagers scattered long before the paper money was scattered, and it was a white matter after all, and no one wanted to watch.

Ruan Erniang was entrusted by Ruan Xiaoman to stay with Ruan Sanniang.

"Go back inside, it's cold outside." Ruan Erniang held Ruan Sanniang's hand and persuaded.

"I almost forgot Xiao Ji's mother." Ruan Sanniang didn't know whether she was guilty or uneasy, she felt very uncomfortable, and she didn't vomit or feel unhappy.

Lu Yuanfeng, Ruan Xiaoji, and Ruan Xiaoman, as if they were a family, and they were becoming more and more speechless, and the feeling of drifting away was really uncomfortable.

"I don't blame you, who will worry about such a thing every day." Ruan Erniang comforted her.

They are all worried about He Bilian, this is as it should be, but she has a very bad feeling in her heart, and after a long time of stable life, she can't remember the hard days before.

Whether it was before or now, she doesn't seem to have gotten along well with her children.

At first, she only cared about how to live, but then her children had their own ideas and left home, but she still stubbornly guarded this home.

Xiao Man also said that Xiao Ji's family affairs were almost decided, and it was said that she was the concubine of the Qi family, and Ruan Sanniang didn't even have the courage to go to Jibei.

This is to marry a daughter-in-law for his son, and it is obviously to invite a big Buddha back to the family.

Thinking of these and some of them, Ruan Sanniang became more and more depressed and worried.

In the end, it is not biological, some words are not straightforward and unstrong, and Ruan Sanniang's black eyes, which are no longer clear, are becoming more and more dull.

Ruan Erniang couldn't guess Ruan Sanniang's thoughts at this time, but she just felt that several of her children were promising, and no matter how many people couldn't look forward to it.

But seeing that Ruan Sanniang's complexion was not very good, Ruan Erniang still patiently persuaded her for a while.

And Ruan Xiaoman and the others had already arrived at the selected cemetery, on a high ground not far from the county seat.

The Beiyuan River turned a corner here, and the river water flowed to Qingyang.

It is close to the water but has never encountered floods, and the common people say that this is a treasure of feng shui.

But because there are several cemeteries here, and the children are still young, Ruan Xiaoman took the children to spend the night in the carriage so as not to be hit.

And Lu Yuanfeng and Ruan Xiaoji, and Lu Zhentang lived in front of the cemetery.

Wei Ning and Ma Qi, as well as Lu Zhentang's entourage, were guarding Ruan Xiaoman's left and right not far away.

This ritual had to be done for three days and three nights, and the rest of the matter did not need to be attended by Ruan Xiaoman and the children, but because the city gate was closed, they had to stay outside for a night.

Regarding the relocation of Lu Yuanfeng's grandfather and grandmother's graves, he had already written to ask He Daoyuan.

He still has to make the decision of this matter, they just have this idea, but they can't go beyond the rules to do something like that.

In the middle of the night, those who do business sit on the ground, resting back to back.

Lu Yuanfeng and Ruan Xiaoji added some paper money and lit candles from time to time.

The river wind is very strong, and the flame of the candle will occasionally be blown out, or stubbornly stand, but it still seems to be extinguished at any time, and the candlelight swaying with the wind, flickering and dimming.

They are not afraid, this is their dearest relative, Ruan Xiaoji and Lu Yuanfeng saw that their mother didn't even have anything to accompany the funeral, only a dress and a straw mat, and their hearts were broken.

Maybe they shouldn't have made her wait so long, but they didn't see the commotion of the villagers at Sandaokou, maybe this moment was the best time.

The paper-tied mansion, the slaves, and all kinds of tributes, but they still felt indebted.

"Mother, can she really receive these things?" Ruan Xiaoji looked blankly at the gradually extinguishing fire.

All he knew and understood about his mother could only piece together a vague portrait through the few memory fragments of Lu Yuanfeng and Ruan Xiaoman, and he always felt that something was missing and not vivid enough.

"Yes." Lu Yuanfeng said with certainty that these still feel that it is still far from enough.

Compared to their fine clothes and food, these things are nothing.

He is different from Ruan Xiaoji, he has too many regrets and remorse.

Regret not being able to look at her for the last time, regretting not being able to remember the appearance of her mother carefully, regretting that she didn't listen to her mother well when she was a child......

At that time, he had already begun to remember, but he was not sensible yet, and God did not give him a chance to regret it.

Compared with Lu Yuanfeng and Ruan Xiaoji's indifferent expressions, Lu Zhentang only felt that he was unprecedentedly embarrassed and flustered.

The wind blows on the face, and it is as cold as an ice knife scraping across the cheeks, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will die and cry.

The firelight reflected on his face, and there was a kind of hot pain, not warmth, but excessive burning pain.

He had always been like an outsider, and now he was too, and he didn't even dare to say a word, he was afraid that he wouldn't even have a chance to stay.

But if they allow him to say a word or two, what can he say?

He didn't have the face to say anything, and he was grateful that she had given him two excellent sons.

He wanted to know her whereabouts, but he never worked tirelessly to find out the truth.

He doesn't deserve it.

He doesn't even deserve to kneel here.

He owes too many people in his life.

Obviously he was so sad, but he didn't have a single tear.

He didn't want to stain her path of reincarnation.

He only hopes that she will not meet him in the next life, and if she does, he wants to give her back a lifetime of worry-free, even if it is to go to the soup and fire.

He didn't want to say these words, he just hoped that there would be an afterlife for him to get his wish.

He didn't want to enter the ancestral grave of the Lu family, he didn't want to take on too many responsibilities, he just wanted to add a new grave next to the old grave, and he just wanted to guard her in the next life.

He is still greedy, he wants to see Ruan Xiaoji become his own son, and he wants to see them safe and smooth in his lifetime, although his father is not competent at all.

Lu Zhentang thought a lot, and was silent for a long time, until dawn.

Ruan Xiaoji and Lu Yuanfeng didn't pay attention to what Lu Zhentang thought, they just wanted to be filial.

This belated filial piety is only full of regrets, which makes them feel guilty for a long time.

After dawn, Lu Yuanfeng asked Ruan Xiaoman to take the children home first, and they stayed here for three days and three nights.

After Ruan Xiaoji's life story spread, many people were emotional.

This is the way he crossed in front of the emperor, and others can't make a fuss about his life experience, and his filial piety has become a good story.

The subordinates of the Lu Mansion couldn't help but say a few words, and they didn't dare to chew their tongues anymore after being beaten by Ruan Xiaoman.

She didn't want to hear others criticize Ruan Xiaoji at home, even if it was good.

She is a little unaccustomed to Lu Yuanfeng not being at home, he basically stays at home these days, the huge room is just their mother and son, Ruan Xiaoman looked at his son's sleeping face, and only after a long time did he blow out the oil lamp.
