Remember: Novel 20δΈ¨6 URL: ΠΎΞ so as not to lose it
Whether it is twenty miles or two hundred miles, for Lu Yu, it is an instantaneous distance. When the brothers arrived in Xiaoqiao Town, Lu Ming took Lu Yu to his sister-in-law's house.
The town of Xiaoqiao is also not large, there is a small river around the town, and to enter the town, you need to pass through a short and wide stone arch bridge.
Like Dunlin Town, Xiaoqiao Town is also full of people, there are no pedestrians on the streets, and there are no open shops on either side.
Lu Ming took Lu Yu through the street, passed a small alley, and entered a courtyard, which was his sister-in-law's home.
There was no one in the courtyard, and the door of the hall was open, and there was candlelight inside.
According to the custom, when the person who explores the happy event arrives at the Lord's house, as soon as he enters the door, he wants to set off a firecracker that he has brought. Lu Ming didn't have firecrackers, and when he entered the courtyard, he shouted: "Eldest sister, brother-in-law, Lu Ming is here." "This business has to be loud.
A thin and haggard middle-aged man walked out, and that was Lu Ming's brother-in-law. When he saw the Lu Ming brothers, he nodded and told them to enter the house.
There was a black coffin parked in the room, and in front of the coffin was a small table with two white candles lit on it. There is also a brazier under the table, which is used to burn paper money.
But there was no burning paper money in the brazier, and there wasn't much ash. Except for Lu Ming's brother-in-law, there was no one in the room, empty and deserted.
"Eldest sister, Lu Ming is here." Lu Ming walked to the coffin and bent down to bow.
If Lu Ming's son and daughter came, they would kneel and kowtow to the deceased, because they were their elders. Lu Ming doesn't have to kowtow when he comes, unless there are very special circumstances, otherwise he doesn't need to kowtow to the dead of his peers.
After Lu Ming bowed, Lu Yu also went over to bow, although he was not familiar with Lu Ming's sister-in-law, but after all, it was also a relative, and the deceased was great.
Lu Ming's brother-in-law invited the brothers to sit down, and asked Lu Ming with a blank face, why did he come at this time.
"Our parents found out, so they called me over." Looking at his expression, it seemed that Lu Ming was even more sad.
Lu Yu quietly glanced at the house, the house was very new, the furniture was also complete, it seemed that Ah Li's sister had a good life before.
"Brother-in-law, our parents are very sad......" Lu Ming said nonsense.
Lu Ming's brother-in-law nodded and said softly: "Lu Ming, go back, let the two of them not be sad, don't cry all the time." β
"Hmm." Lu Ming didn't seem to know what to say, and asked again: "How long has my sister been sick?" "Ah Li's sister died of illness, and Lu Yu didn't know it yet.
"I got sick on the first day of snow this year, and I haven't been well, and I can't invite Langzhong, so I didn't survive for a few days, so I went." Brother-in-law Lu Ming's tone was very flat, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.
"Ugh." Lu Ming persuaded: "Brother-in-law, don't be too sad, take care of your body." He really didn't know what to say.
"Well, take care of your body." Lu Ming's brother-in-law actually smiled and said, "If people are gone, they can't stay, and they can't care about their bodies, what else can they do." β
This man surnamed Li didn't look very sad on his face, but Lu Yu understood that this was just what he looked like, a man of the same grade as himself, but he looked like a person in his fifties, he must have become like this because he was too sad.
Lu Ming asked again: "Brother-in-law, when will my sister go up the mountain?" Is the date set? β
"It was decided." Lu Ming's brother-in-law sighed and said, "It's too cold, I can't invite the injured sedan chair, so I will stop at home for a few days first, and wait for the weather to be warm, so I can accompany her more." β
Lu Ming said: "It's not good to stop at home, look at the days, let's send them to the mountain." β
Lu Yu also spoke: "Send it up the mountain, the three of us can do it." β
Lu Ming's brother-in-law didn't insist, nodded and said, "That's okay, I'll borrow an ox cart tomorrow, find a few people to help carry it onto the car, and the three of us will pull it up the mountain." He seemed to notice Lu Yu, and asked Lu Ming again: "This is your brother, Mr. Lu Yu, right?" Lu Yu remembered him, he didn't seem to remember Lu Yu anymore.
"It's my brother, he sent me." Lu Ming said: "My brother is here, just the three of us, and we can send my sister up the mountain." He lowered his head again and said, "It's too cold, our parents can't come, and neither can my two children." β
"It's okay, if you don't come, you won't come, it's not good to come, and the province will be sad to see." Lu Ming's brother-in-law asked Lu Ming and Lu Yu again if they hadn't eaten, and he went to cook something.
Lu Ming originally wanted to say no, but he was indeed a little hungry, so he said, "Brother-in-law, sit down, I'll go cook." "His brother-in-law has few relatives and no children of his own, and the house is very deserted, and there is no one to help cook.
"Sit down, I'll cook, and I'll be fine in a moment." Lu Ming's brother-in-law patted Lu Ming's shoulder, got up and went to the kitchen.
It was a fine day, and it was noon, and it was bright outside, but it was dark inside, and there were candles lit in the house.
The brother-in-law went to cook, Lu Ming looked at the dark and quiet coffin, and said to Lu Yu: "Alas, if I knew that my sister was sick first, I would have asked you to help her heal." β
"yes, but you don't know." Every day, every night, every moment, there are dying people, some who don't know each other, and some who know, but Lu Yu can't save anyone.
"Alas, my brother-in-law is so pitiful, and I will live by myself in the future."
Lu Yu nodded and sighed again.
"Brother, if there is no ox cart, can you carry Shoufang up the mountain?"
"Yes, yes, but it looks a little ...... Blame. "Even if he carries it on his shoulder, Lu Yu can carry the coffin up the mountain, but it is too shocking for people to see it like that.
"Then let's borrow a car." Lu Ming suddenly said: "I knew that it was so easy for you to come here, so I would have brought all the family members." β
Lu Yu smiled and said, "Just bring your father-in-law and mother-in-law like that, don't you scare them?" Besides, it was not good for them to come, they were crying and crying, the weather was cold, and their bodies were uncomfortable. β
"It's also, if you don't come, you won't come, and if you come, you're sad, and even sad." Lu Ming said: "Brother, you don't understand, my eldest sister is gone, how sad my father-in-law and mother-in-law are." β
Regarding the matter of the children going away by themselves first, Lu Yu is indeed not as profound as Lu Ming understands, Lu Ming has a child, but he has not yet. But Lu Yu still said: "The child is gone, it must be sad." β
"Alas, I know you think I'm patriarchal and like sons more than daughters. I tell you, I am really the same to them, and both sons and daughters are ten times more important than my own life. Lu Ming sighed and continued: "As long as the two children are well, I am willing to do anything." β
Lu Yu nodded and said slowly: "Don't think about it, the child must be fine, you will all be fine." β
"I'm fine, I'm afraid that my father-in-law and mother-in-law will be sad and break my body." Lu Ming said: "Let's send my sister up the mountain tomorrow and go back, brother, you can help me persuade my father-in-law more." β
Lu Yu nodded, but thought in his heart: "How can I persuade?" Won't I be sad if I persuade him? β
The brothers sat on the mourning hall for a while, and Lu Mingyou went to the kitchen to help his brother-in-law cook. Lu Ming's brother-in-law's house still had something to eat, and after a while, they came out with a few bowls of rice and a bowl of soup.
The clear soup is watery, and there are only a few white and yellow vegetable leaves floating in it. They have food at home, but they have no food.
Lu Yu didn't want to eat, but he thought that if he didn't eat, people might think that he was disgusted with no food, so he quickly stripped off a bowl of rice, and the bowl of vegetable soup didn't move.
Lu Ming also had a full meal and said, "Brother-in-law, let my brother bring you some vegetables tomorrow, I still have some at home." β
"No, I don't need anything by myself. It's so far away, it's cold, don't let Mr. Lu Yu run this time again. Lu Ming's brother-in-law suddenly smiled again and said, "Even before your sister left, she said that she wanted to eat a bowl of braised pork, but I couldn't let her eat it." β
Lu Ming's eyes immediately turned red, and Lu Yu also felt that his nose was a little sour.
Failing to let his wife eat a bowl of braised pork she wanted to eat before she died, this is not because her husband is incompetent, but God is too unkind.
Lu Yu stood up and said, "You eat first, and I'll go out for a walk." Seeing that Lu Ming wanted to ask himself, he said again: "Lu Ming, you sit with your brother-in-law for a while, and I will come back in a while." β
