Chapter 98: Windfall
Shu Yu took Xia Zhu out of Wanzi Building, and did not return to Shizi's Mansion, but asked Xia Zhu to take her to the street to buy some paper money, incense and candles for worship, and then went to the coffin shop to buy two coffins.
Shu Yu invited a few big men and asked them to carry the coffin to the back door of the palace, Shu Yu bought off the officials who guarded the mourning hall and brought Lu Pingchuan's body out and put it in the coffin.
Lu Pingchuan has been dead for many days, and there is a foul smell on his body, Shu Yu doesn't want to look at Lu Pingchuan, Shu Yu has no feelings for Lu Pingchuan, but her body is Lu Shuang'er's, she feels obliged to collect a corpse for Lu Pingchuan, that's all.
Shu Yu relied on Lu Shuang'er's memory, asked a few big men to bring Lu Pingchuan's coffin back to the back mountain of Lujiazhuang, found a place casually, and let a few strong men dig a pit and bury it hastily, and set up a monument but did not engrave it for him.
After burying Lu Pingchuan, Shu Yu found Lu Shuang'er's mother's grave, her eyes suddenly turned red, standing in front of her humble grave, her heart was sour, and her tears couldn't stop falling, maybe Lu Shuang'er's memory was too clear, Shu Yu always felt that there was a constant emotion of giving up with Lu Shuang'er's mother, or maybe it was because he remembered his biological mother.
Shu Yu wiped his tears and ordered several big men to re-erect a simple mourning hall on the grave, dug up the body of Lu Shuang'er's mother, and re-decorated it with a coffin.
Shu Yu is not a superstitious person, and he didn't ask his husband to look at feng shui, but found a position by himself, which looked very comfortable, so he ordered the strong man to dig a pit and bury it again.
The reason why Shu Yu didn't let Lu Shuang'er's mother's grave be next to Lu Pingchuan was because she hoped that Lu Pingchuan could stay away from Lu Shuang'er's mother, so that she would not have to suffer again in the next life.
Shu Yu repaired Lu Shuang'er's mother's tomb very beautifully, not only engraved Lu Shuang'er's name on the tombstone, but also engraved his own name.
Although she has never met Lu Shuang'er's mother, from Lu Shuang'er's memory, she knows that this is a great mother, but also a small mother, she loves her daughter and takes care of her daughter, but in this society, she has too much helplessness, and in the end she can't even protect her daughter, not even herself.
Shu Yu took out the memorial things, knelt in front of the grave, red eyes, burned the paper money one by one, and after the worship, Shu Yu got up and walked around the neighborhood, wanting to recognize the location.
Shu Yu just walked to the hillside, suddenly saw a big tree, I am afraid that there are hundreds of years, two adults hand in hand can not hold it, Shu Yu looked up at the hundred-year-old tree, found that the fruit on the tree is very similar to peas, in the eyes of the look, it turned out to be the honey locust tree that he was looking for.
The honey locust tree is not only the main raw material for soap and soap, but also its trunk and seeds are the main raw materials for paper and self-adhesive.
Shu Yu didn't expect to find honey locust trees in the mountains behind this, generally honey locust trees only grow in plains, valleys or hilly areas near the river basin, and there is no big river basin nearby, which is really rare.
Acacia trees do not grow above 1,600 meters above sea level, and although they do not require much soil, they can only be found in places where saline or clay soil is needed.
The strangest thing is that this honey locust tree looks three or four hundred years old, and it is still bearing fruit, you know, although the life span of the honey locust tree can reach six or seven hundred years, but the general honey locust tree fruiting cycle is only one or two hundred years, and it is rare to see such an old tree, not to mention that it is still bearing fruit.
Shu Yu was like a treasure, she knew in her heart that the honey locust tree would either not grow, or it would grow in patches, and at this time she found such a large honey locust, and there must have been a lot of honey locust trees next to it.
Sure enough, the more Shu Yu went up, the more honey locust trees there were, and he even found a honey locust tree that was bigger than the one just now, thinking that it should be the mother tree of this honey locust tree.
Shu Yu didn't continue to go up, hurriedly returned to Lu Shuang'er's mother's grave, called Xia Zhu, and asked Xia Zhu to pack up his things and prepare to leave, at this time Shu Yu already had another plan in his heart.
Originally, when she hadn't found honey locust, she just found other substitutes to replace honey locusts, and now with the raw material of honey locusts, she doesn't need to use substitutes.
Shu Yu relied on Lu Shuang'er's memory and returned to Lujiazhuang, saying that it was a village, but in fact, there were not many families here, and they were very scattered, Shu Yu went straight to the house of the village chief of Lujiazhuang and came to discuss things with the village chief.
Shu Yu learned from Lu Shuang'er's memory that the village chief was very good to the two of them before, every time the mother and daughter were severely beaten by Lu Pingchuan, the village chief came to rescue them, and also taught Lu Pingchuan that Lujiazhuang is basically the same ethnic group, with 100 families and 3 or 400 people.
So as soon as Shu Yu returned to Lujiazhuang, he came to find the village chief, the village chief was already an old man who was over the age of old, and he was very surprised when he first saw Shu Yu, looking at Shu Yu's clothes and Xia Zhu beside him, thinking that Shu Yu was sold by Lu Pingchuan into a big family to be a concubine.
But I thought that it was better to sell to others as a concubine than to sell to Qinglou, so I was relieved.
The village chief hurriedly invited Shu Yu into the house, but when he saw Shu Yu and thought of Lu Shuang'er's mother, he couldn't help but reddened his eyes and choked up:
"My poor girl, just come back, just come back, your beastly father, if I let me meet him, I will definitely break his leg, I must have heard about your mother!"
At this time, the village chief didn't know that Lu Pingchuan was dead, after all, no one would care where a person who was lazy and addicted to gambling all day long, although he hadn't seen him for many days, no one cared.
Shu Yu looked at the old man in front of him and mentioned Lu Shuang'er's mother, and his heart was also sour, in Lu Shuang'er's memory, except for his mother, he was the closest to the old man in front of him.
Shu Yu also followed with red circles, nodded silently, and didn't know what to say for a while.
The village chief patted Shu Yu on the shoulder and comforted: "Girl, you will treat this place as your home in the future, and if you are wronged in that big family in the future, and want to come back, come back here, I will protect you." ”
Shu Yu knew that the village chief had misunderstood, but he didn't break it, his eyes were still red, he nodded again, and he didn't say anything about Lu Pingchuan.
The village chief wiped a handful of old tears, saw that Shu Yu's mood was very low, quickly adjusted his mood, shook his hand and laughed at himself:
"Oops! Girl, look at my bad old man, you just came back, you should be happy, why did you shed tears, and made you cry, it's really damned, you sit and rest for a while, I'll call your talented uncle back and cook you something delicious. ”
Shu Yu saw the village chief like this, burst into laughter, temporarily swept away the haze, nodded and answered "yes".
