Chapter 2: Swearing
I want you to swear in front of Tomson's grave, swear that you will never marry again in this life, and guard Yunji and the Jiang family well. ”
Jiang's eyes were swollen, his eyes were red, and there seemed to be a fierce light inside, staring at Li Qing. Looking at her posture, if Li Qing didn't agree, it would be as if she would be eaten.
Li Qing was really frightened by this mother-in-law, what is the situation?
The funeral crowd suddenly stirred.
"What do you mean by this? Forcing this young daughter-in-law to be widowed for the rest of her life?"
"Walk the way she walked?"
"This ...... It's insulting, insulting. ”
……
Li Qing was stunned for a long time, and she had only been in this world for two days...... The real Li Qing flew with her deceased husband in the morning, and she was just a wisp of dead soul from another world.
Just when she was stunned, she recalled some unpleasantness in her previous life, and strung together the memories left by Li Qing again, thinking that this was also good, the same as the situation of being single.
Once crossed, a free newbie gift package, a small bun, is not bad, and the people who send it to the end are there.
In his previous life, he didn't die properly, and he was miserable. I still have a son in this life, but my mother-in-law doesn't seem to be a good person, but will she be afraid? I've all died once, what are you afraid of?
"You don't swear?"
Jiang's voice rose an octave again, and Li Qing's hand was sore and painful.
Li Qing glanced up at Jiang's distorted face. Jiang's water marks are applied to the face, the hair is turbid, there are weeds interspersed, and the white is vaguely visible.
The years and the hardships of life have left a deep mark on this woman's face, who is nearly fifty or sixty years old.
Li Qing agreed to Jiang's request, but now he hesitated just to maintain his personality. She can't suddenly change her temperament, the ancient little widow was forced to swear at her husband's grave, who would accept it except love? However, it turned out that Li Qing loved Jiang Tangchen, otherwise he would not be too sad, so he went to Lechuan and went with him.
"If you dare to marry, the old lady will take Yunji and crash to death on Tomson's grave." Jiang shook off Li Qing's hand, pointed at her head, and said viciously.
"......" you're going too far.
Li Qing was speechless, but according to the memory of the original owner, although this mother-in-law was a little spicy, she treated Li Qing quite well. When Li Qing was confined, it was the autumn harvest, and she didn't let Li Qing get out of bed.
As for the current appearance, it is most likely that Jiang Tangchen is dead that has greatly stimulated her.
Li Qing endured.
Character design, all for the sake of character design, after all, this is an ancient time that I am not familiar with, if it changes suddenly, it will definitely attract suspicion, and it will be soaked in the pig cage......
#emmm...... My life ended before it even officially began. #
So Li Qing slowly stretched out his right hand and turned out four fingers, and said word by word: "I, Jiang Li, swore to my deceased husband that I would never marry again in this life, and I would guard Yunji and this family wholeheartedly. No one found anything wrong with Li Qing's words, and they all attributed it to excessive sadness.
Jiang Shi breathed a sigh of relief and muttered in a low voice: "Don't blame me, after Yun Ji lost his father, he can't live without his mother, and I'm an old woman for a few years......" As she spoke, she cried again.
Li Qing lowered his head, hid his face in the hat of Mai's filial piety, and said softly: "Mother-in-law, I can save it." ”
"Swear! I really swore it! "The crowd began to stir again.
"This Jiang clan is also vicious, tsk, it's not the previous dynasty, and it's still looking forward to the chastity archway." A little woman on the side sighed, her eyes full of disgust.
For these, the Jiang family doesn't want to care anymore, the mouth is on them, what they want to say, let them say it.
The Taoist priest here only beats the gongs and drums, and these family affairs, there are no casualties, so he naturally can't control it.
"Ignition!"
Li Qing put the lit torch next to all kinds of things made of paper, these are rural funeral customs, Li Qing saw them when he was a child, and naturally understood them. They were all shrouds and furniture that the woman had made out of scissors and paste, and they were to be burned for her deceased husband, so that he would have a good time in the underworld and live like the sun.
Ancient people attached great importance to life and death, and Li Qing did a little research on this in his previous life, but after all, it was just talk on paper, and when he saw the real thing, he suppressed the throbbing in his heart and made a sad appearance.
After doing this, Li Qing lay down next to the grave and cried for a while, and then returned to his home in the village with the support of everyone.
The cooks have already started all kinds of busy work, all of which are made in the village, with men and women, women working and men in charge.
After Jiang returned, he instructed Li Qing to follow the Taoist priest to do the final excess, and she went to check her own grain. These people who make the banquet don't know the severity, if they take away the other food in the house, she will definitely cry and scold.
This feast is called the memorial feast, and the memorial feast is also called the farewell feast, and there is no banquet in the world, which means that people have really left and left forever.
Li Qing's deceased husband Jiang Tangchen also had a few classmates and friends, but unfortunately he only came once on the first day, leaving some bits and pieces of silver and leaving. When Li Qing's body was still the original owner, he asked for those bits and pieces, and there were as many as eight taels.
That's a debt of affection.
Jiang Tomson liked to help others the most when he was alive, and this is the reward that good people get.
Li Qing must return this love.
After this funeral, it still cost nearly thirty taels of silver.
The money received was twelve taels, but the family still paid eighteen taels. These accounts were quietly calculated by Li Qing, I don't know how many Jiang families have, anyway, Li Qing himself only has five or six taels of silver here.
The road ahead is unknown.
In this era when there is not a lot of meat, this mat is quite impressive. Three plates of meat dishes were placed on the table, among which there was also fried fish. The chef is very good, and only a little oil is used to fry the fish, and the other vegetarian dishes and mixed dishes are very good. Li Qing was holding a bowl of rice, he was really tired and hungry these days, and when he was on the keep, he knelt all day long.
According to Li Qing's observation, he used an iron pot for cooking, and instead of cakes or chaff cakes, he ate coarse grain steamed buns and white rice. Judging from the surrounding vegetation and crops, this must be a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River.
What surprised her the most was that there were potatoes in the dish, vinegared shredded potatoes.
Maybe it's because the time and space are different, this is not the so-called ancient China, but a dynasty named Tianqi.
In Li Qing's memory, the Tianqi Dynasty has been founded for more than 100 years, and he is now the fourth generation of emperors. Going up is a dynasty named Wei, and up is the dynasty that Li Qing, a dynasty familiar to the soul of another world, from the pre-Qin to the Tang Dynasty, no one has been left behind. The former Dynasty was a minority regime, and because it was a country on horseback, many Han people did not buy it, and it was overthrown by the current Tianqi less than 60 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China. And Tianqi was the regime of the Han people.
In other words, history was cut off from the Tang Dynasty, there were no five dynasties and ten kingdoms, and there was a great unification of ethnic minorities directly, but they killed themselves again, so there was the current Tianqi.
Tianqi is a country that attaches great importance to human development. There are not too many constraints on women, and a deceased woman like Li Qing can remarry under the Zhang Luo of her mother-in-law's family or her mother's family.
Li Qing was born in Shitian Village next door, separated from Shilitang Village by a Ning River, and her brother is Xiucai, so even with her, she can read and read.
Such as the Four Books and Five Classics, Li Qing also read them when she was a girl. Her father didn't force her to watch "The Female Ring" and "The Female Rule".
Fortunately, he has read books, and Li Qing doesn't have to explain why he knows how to read.
The Ning River is the source of snow water from the depths of the Quanji Mountains, and when it flows to Shilitang Village, it is already a wide river.
