Chapter 145: Funeral
"Father, Aunt Li." Lin Joy exclaimed politely.
Lin Huaye and Li Qian nodded, and the two of them walked directly to the dining room. As soon as he sat down, he saw Murong Xuan and Lin Qiaonuo coming downstairs.
"Xiao Xuan is here?" Murong Dong looked at Murong Xuan and asked with a frown.
"Father, Xuan knew that today was Grandpa's funeral, so he came over last night to see where he could help today." Lin Qiaonuo held Murong Xuan's arm and looked at Lin Qiaoyi's gaze with a bit of demonstration, as if he was triumphantly declaring her sovereignty.
Lin Qiaoyi didn't care about Lin Qiaonuo's eyes at all, and naturally he didn't notice the complexity in Murong Xuan's eyes.
She sat down in her seat and began to eat the breakfast in front of her.
The emotion in Lin Qiaonuo's eyes was seen by Lin Huaye, and he coughed with a serious expression, and then said, "Hurry up and eat breakfast, the guests who will come to mourn will come in a while." ”
"Father, Xuan is here to help us, why shouldn't you have such a face?"
Seeing that Lin Huaye's face was not half relieved and happy, Lin Qiaonuo said a little unhappily.
"Alright. Qiao Nuo, Xuan Shao, hurry up and have breakfast. Li Qian beckoned them and said.
Today is not the day when Lin Qiaonuo and Lin Joy compete.
When she was so serious, if Lin Qiaonuo said anything nonsense, Lin Huaye would not let her go easily.
"Yes, aunt." Murong Xuan's face was indifferent, and he couldn't see any other emotions. He pulled Lin Gionno directly to his seat and began to eat.
After the meal, Sister Ling and the servants arranged the mourning hall dedicated to Lin Zheng.
When the mourning hall was arranged, Lin Huaye held a white columbarium from the small building next to the villa.
The building was next to the main villa of the Lin family, and it was a villa where Lin Zheng lived alone, so after bringing his ashes back, Lin Huaye placed the ashes there.
Lin Joy knelt in front of the mourning hall, and in front of him was a black and white photo, next to which white chrysanthemums were placed, surrounding the photo, which looked very harmonious.
The serious face in the photo has a somewhat kind gaze, just like the one that once was, looking at her kindly and gently.
"Grandpa......" Looking at such a photo and such a scene, Lin Joy's heart finally fell to the bottom.
Even in front of people, she couldn't hold back the tears that came out of her eyes.
She didn't cry, she didn't keep talking about her grandfather like a child. She just knelt in front of the spirit, looked at the picture, and silently wept.
Throughout the mourning hall, she seemed to be immersed in only her own sorrow, allowing cold tears to roll down her cheeks.
A white tissue appeared in front of her, and the hands holding the tissue, slender and bony, did not look like a suffering person.
Lin Qiaoyi took the tissue and just wanted to raise his head and say thank you, but he saw Murong Xuan's face, with a touch of distress in his eyes.
"Thank you." Lin Qiao Yi wiped her tears and said a little detached.
"Don't be too sad, if Old Man Lin is still here, I don't want you to be like this." Murong Xuan looked at Lin Qiaoyi's indifferent expression, but he didn't get angry.
Lin Qiaoyi's expression just now looked really sad. I really couldn't stand her like this, so he came up and gave her a tissue.
As soon as the words fell, a howling cry came from behind Murong Xuan, which made him frown a little dissatisfied.
Lin Qiao Yi turned his head to look, then turned his head and said, "I'm fine, you go and accompany Qiao Nuo." ”
The man who was crying was none other than Lin Qiaonuo.
Lin Qiaonuo didn't care about his delicate makeup at the moment, nor did he care about the surprised eyes of the people around him, he just cried vigorously.
How could she possibly be in the mood to care about that now? Lin Qiaoyi just shed a few tears just now, and Murong Xuan looked very distressed.
She was going to wonder why Murong Xuan came to the funeral now, was it because he had no feelings for Lin Qiaoyi, or if Lin Qiaoyi seduced Murong Xuan when he wasn't paying attention, otherwise how could he leave himself here?
Murong Xuan reluctantly walked to Lin Qiaonuo's side, took out a few tissues from the tissue box next to him, stuffed them directly into Lin Qiaonuo's hand, and said in a slightly indifferent voice: "Hurry up and wipe your tears." What do you look like now? Get rid of the appearance of a mountain village girl. ”
Lin Qiaonuo took the tissue, and before he had time to be complacent, Murong Xuan's words were like a basin of cold water, making Lin Qiaonuo cold from head to toe.
"Murong Xuan! Why are you doing this to me? You are so gentle with Lin Joy, why are you so indifferent to me? Did that vixen pour some ecstasy on you? Lin Qiaono yelled dissatisfied.
Murong Xuan subconsciously glanced in the direction of Lin Qiaoyi, she didn't turn her head, she knelt in the same posture as just now, and didn't move at all.
"Shut up!" Murong Xuan inexplicably felt irritable and said dissatisfiedly.
Although Lin Qiaonuo's words were not big, the people in the mourning hall heard them clearly.
Fortunately, Lin Huaye and Li Qian have already gone to the hall now, otherwise Lin Qiaonuo would have suffered now.
"I won't." Lin Qiaonuo glanced around fiercely and shouted dissatisfiedly, "What are you looking at?" If you don't hurry up and do something, don't you want to be fired? ”
The servants continued to bow their heads and do the work at hand, even if they were a little unhappy in their hearts, but after all, Lin Qiaonuo was the second lady, and they had no way to say anything.
"If you are so vexatious again, don't blame me for being ruthless." Murong Xuan said coldly.
Murong Xuan's words made Lin Qiaonuo suddenly realize that he was a little too much, and hurriedly restrained his dissatisfaction and willfulness, took Murong Xuan's hand a little aggrieved, and said, "I'm sorry, Xuan." Grandpa passed away, and I feel very sad, so don't worry about me. ”
Looking at Lin Qiaonuo, who had softened, Murong Xuan had no way to get angry anymore, and said in a somewhat soothing tone: "Don't do this next time, after all, today is your grandfather's funeral, don't play a child's temper when sending him off the old man for the last time." ”
"Hmm." Lin Qiaonuo nodded and leaned on Murong Xuan's chest.
In the next time, wherever Murong Xuan went, Lin Qiaonuo followed. began to shed tears at every turn, looking pitiful, which made people pity.
The time gradually came to noon, and the guests who received the invitations also arrived at Lin's house one after another.
After mourning in the mourning hall, he went to the lounge to rest for a while under the guidance of the servant.
There were more and more guests coming, and Lin Huaye didn't know whose call he answered. With a look on his face, he hurriedly went upstairs and went to the study, and ordered no one to disturb him.
As soon as Lin Huaye left, Li Qian had no way to entertain the guests alone. Lin Qiaonuo and Murong Xuan took the initiative to help Lin Huaye take the task of greeting the guests.
As the number of people increased, Lin Huaye decided to place the guests in the lounge first, and then go to mourn when the time was up. After the condolences, Lin Zheng was sent to the cemetery for burial.
There was silence in the mourning hall, and the first guests would come to pay their respects before going to the lounge.
At first, there were still some servants standing in the mourning hall, but after Lin Qiaonuo and Murong Xuan left, they also left.
In the entire mourning hall, only Lin Qiao was left.
A tall and handsome figure appeared in the mourning hall, he was dressed in a black suit, well-cut, looking simple and generous but serious.
The moment his eyes stayed on Lin Qiaoyi's figure, he unconsciously softened a little, with distress and love.
Then he turned his eyes and saw the photo in front of the mourning hall, the face that he couldn't be familiar with anymore, which shrouded his indifferent face with a layer of gloom.
He walked behind Lin Joy, bent slightly towards the picture in front of the spirit, and bowed.
"Thank you. Please go to the lounge first, and when the time comes, my father will come with you. Lin Joy didn't look back, he saw the shadows on the ground, and he saw the movements of the people who came. Although she didn't know who it was, she knew that this person was here to mourn, so she said politely.
"You've lost weight."
A familiar voice sounded behind Lin Qiaoyi, causing her body to stiffen, and her mind went blank for an instant.
Nangong Ze looked at Lin Qiaoyi, who didn't reply, walked to her side, patted her shoulder gently, and then followed her, knelt in front of Lin Zheng's spirit, and kowtowed respectfully.
In this life, he has never knelt in the sky or on the ground. The only one who has knelt is his parents, and now there is one more Lin Zheng.
In fact, he doesn't have to do this, it's just that Lin Zheng is Lin Qiaoyi's favorite grandfather, and he is her most important relative, so naturally he is also his most important relative.
Nangong Ze's action made Lin Qiaoyi stunned, and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing here?" ”
Nangong Ze replied lightly, "Do what I should do." ”
"Do you still have the face to kneel here? My grandfather could not afford to receive this great gift from His Excellency the President. Lin Joy replied coldly.
"In front of him is not His Excellency the President. Rather, it is his future grandson-in-law, the husband of his favorite granddaughter in this world. Nangong Ze replied.
I have to say that Nangong Ze's words can be very moving.
It's just a pity that the occasion and time are not right now.
Lin Qiao Yi still doesn't know if Lin Zheng's death has anything to do with Nangong Ze, and he doesn't know why he is hiding himself.
"My grandfather, how the hell did he die?" Lin Qiao Yi tightened his hands and asked indifferently.
Although her face was cold and indifferent, she was very nervous in her heart. The answer to this matter is very important to her, and it is very important to the entire Lin family.
Nangong Ze looked at Lin Qiaoyi, even though she tried hard to maintain her indifference, Nangong Ze could still see her sadness and nervousness at a glance.
