Chapter 23 Will

The moonlit night is coming.

Jiang Fu opened the door of the study and invited Zhou Yujing, Jiang Xing, Jiang Hongjian, and Jiang Hongsheng.

Seeing that the people were complete, Jiang Fu took out the will written by the old man and handed it to Zhou respectfully.

Zhou's eyes were not good, so he asked Jiang Hongjian to read it.

Jiang Zhen's will is very simple, he clearly explained what happened after his death in just a few strokes, and passed on the family business to his eldest son Jiang Hongjian.

Zhou Shi scolded angrily when he heard this: "Jiang Fu, why doesn't the old man enter the ancestral grave and erect a tombstone, what is the reason?" ”

Jiang Fu's breathing was a little heavier, and he mourned: "Mrs. Hui, please see the master when the old man is sick." The master said that the master is guilty of a lot of sin, and if he dies, if he enters the ancestral grave, the family will be restless, and the children and grandchildren will be harmed. And after ten years, the monument can be erected. ”

The three of Zhou's mother and son chuckled in their hearts, their faces were a little solemn, and their eyes were focused on Jiang Fu.

Jiang Fu lowered his head by half an inch, and said: "The master turned the roulette wheel and said that the back garden of the old mansion is the most Tibetan wind and gathering qi, and it is a treasure land. The old man thought about it again and again, and then left a letter. ”

Jiang Xing knew in his heart that the eldest brother and Jinxin had a deep relationship since childhood, and they had lived in the ancestral house for a few years, so they were most nostalgic for this place. Now that the whereabouts of the mother and son are unknown, the eldest brother can't let go of his heart, and he has to wait for her to come back. There is another layer of intention, I am afraid that the eldest brother knows that he has failed to fulfill his father's wish, and he has no face to see each other under the yellow spring.

The two brothers of the Jiang family glanced at each other and did not speak. Xindao, this is an unprecedented thing not to enter the ancestral grave, what does the father mean?

Zhou pondered for a moment and asked, "Did the master say that there is a vacant seat reserved in the tomb?" ”

Jiang Fu was shocked and said vaguely: "The master said that he would stay in the seat." ”

Zhou exhaled lightly, and said with a slightly softened face: "Second brother, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Jiang Xingqiang endured his sadness and said: "In my life, I only listen to my eldest brother, and I will do what my eldest brother says." ”

In this era, there are many people in the world, and gods and Buddhas are in charge. Zhou thought about it again and again, and immediately clapped his head and said: "Everything will be done according to the master's orders." ”

Jiang Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "The master still has a will, and he ordered the old slave to pass it on orally." The old man saw that the old slave was lonely, so he asked the old slave to watch the grave and keep watch, so he gave me the title deed of the house. Madam, do you see? ”

Zhou's heart said that a broken house wants it to do something: "It's appropriate for the master to arrange it like this, as long as you have to be conscientious and live up to the master's love." ”

Jiang Hongjian said coldly: "Mother, how can this be, isn't this Diao slave deceiving us?" ”

When Jiang Fu heard this, he knelt down, beat his chest, and said: "Madam, the old slave I have been with the master for decades, and I wanted to be martyred, if it wasn't for the old man in front of me telling me to sweep the snow on the grave in winter, plant willows in spring, and celebrate the New Year's holidays, pour a glass of thin wine, and let the old slave accompany me to talk and drink, so as not to be miserable in Huangquan, I would never dare to accept the old slave!" Madame, ma'am, you have to be my master!"

Jiang Xing said with tears: "Sister-in-law, this house is in a poor and remote country, it is not worth a few dollars, Steward Fu sent away the eldest brother for us, and waited for the eldest brother for a lifetime, so we should take it." In the future, his brother's grave will have to be pointed to and looked after. ”

Zhou heard the four words of Huangquan's misery, his heart was like a knife, and he was overwhelmed with grief.

She yelled at Jiang Hongjian fiercely: "You son of a, kneel in front of your father and tell him, I see how you have the face to say it!" Master, I hate that I can't leave this big family, and I can't come to accompany you right away! Let you be miserable and helpless, and no one will speak! You wait for me for a few years, and we'll see you again! ”

When Jiang Hongjian saw that his mother was angry, he hurriedly kowtowed to apologize, and said in tears that he was blinded by lard.

Zhou's face eased slightly.

Jiang Fu said again: "The master said that he would give the books in this study, a few ornaments, pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other things to the fourth lady, and the right to treat it as a thought, and it will not be in vain for the grandchildren." Madam, do you see? ”

Zhou looked around, these are the lord's favorites! That's it, that's it, everyone is gone, what do you want these books for? Just give it to the four girls. After a few years of companionship, this sentiment is not as good as ordinary people, so he nodded in agreement.

Jiang Hongjian was originally a wine-colored person, and there were only two words when he saw the book: headache. Therefore, it doesn't matter who you leave it to, just don't leave it to him and everything will be fine.

Jiang Hongsheng was surprised. After a cursory glance, he knew that his father's books were ancient classics that he had treasured for many years. Now it has given Xin Yao, but it is a blessing for a girl. It seems that in the past few years, this girl has won her father's heart.

Jiang Hongsheng hasn't seen his daughter for five years, and he can't remember what she looked like back then. A faint glance in front of the mourning hall, through the crowd, it was not real, and it was vaguely a lot taller.

Jiang Hongjian can't read books, he is a good hand at settling accounts, and he secretly calculates in his heart. Seeing his mother, the second brother was immersed in grief and didn't say anything, so he said, "Jiang Fu, who can I say that my father's Jade Xuan was left to?" Who is in charge of this house, can there be an account book? ”

Jiang Fu stepped forward and said, "This is another letter from the master, please read it, wife." ”

Jiang Hongjian said sharply: "You slave, if I hadn't asked, you wouldn't have taken it, wouldn't you?" There was no time to wait for Jiang Fu to answer, so Zhan Xin would take a look.

This letter is written more simply, with only one meaning: he was seriously ill and had no money for treatment, so he sold Cui Yuxuan to see a doctor.

Jiang Hongjian was so angry that he tore up the letter to relieve his anger.

Jiang Xing secretly thought about it, the eldest brother wanted to leave Cuiyuxuan to the Xu family, and now there is no news from the mother and son, and the person who took over is Jiang Quan. This Jiang Quan has always been loyal to the Xu family, and it is very appropriate to hand it over to him.

Zhou was also puzzled. If the master has no private collection in his hands, she will never believe it, otherwise where would the money come from to the outer house? How could it be that she would not sell Cui Yuxuan to see a doctor, but she was not easy to say. And as soon as the old man died, she checked the master's private room, and if this was to be spread, she wouldn't have to be a human being.

Jiang Fu took out a stack of account books from his arms, handed them to Zhou, and said respectfully: "Madam, this is the account book of the mansion in the past few years, this is the account book and the sales contract of Cui Yuxuan in the past few years, you can take a look." ”

Zhou took the account book, and without looking at it, he handed it to Master Xing.

Jiang Hongjian was so anxious that he wanted to see it but was afraid that his mother would blame him, so he had to hold it back.

Master Xing handed back the account book to Zhou with a calm face, and deliberately said in a loud voice: "Sister-in-law, why does the eldest brother want to sell his property so that he can afford to be sick, what is the reason?" Could it be that the Jiang Mansion is so empty? ”

Zhou didn't expect Jiang Xing to say this, so he hurriedly took the letter and glanced at it, and sighed: "Second brother, you don't know your eldest brother's temper. I only found out today, but as long as he sends a letter to the house, I won't frown even if I smash the pot and sell iron. ”

Jiang Xing sobbed in a hoarse voice and cried: "It's strange that Big Brother Dao wants to give the old mansion to Steward Fu, and I'm afraid it will be the same if I change it." Filial piety comes first, which makes me, how to say...... Ay! ”

Jiang Hongjian took over the account book and couldn't wait to look at it. In the end, when he saw that there were more than 4,000 taels of silver left in the account, he was so angry that he fell backwards, and immediately said, "Mother, look at this ......."

Zhou hesitated and did not speak.

Jiang Hongsheng took the account book, glanced at it a few times, and said with red eyes: "Mother, the century-old store of Cuiyuxuan has already been defeated when it reaches my father's hands." Over the years, my father has worked hard to support and is in a hurry to make a move, and 30,000 taels is already very good in the capital. My father was suffering from a sudden illness, and the medicine should be more expensive. If the son knew, he was willing to help his father see a doctor even if he was afraid of giving up his family wealth. ”

As Jiang Hongsheng spoke, tears fell from his eyes.

"The son is not filial, he can't wait in front of him, he hasn't even seen the last side, the son is in pain, if he can get back his father's life, not to mention the family wealth, it is my life, and I am willing to do it."

Jiang Hongsheng said something from the bottom of his heart, and Zhou was choked with tears when he heard it.

Jiang Hongjian felt ashamed in his heart, and turned his face away without saying a word.

The afterglow in the corner of Jiang Fu's eyes made everyone's demeanor clear, and he cried bitterly on the ground at the moment, shouting in his mouth: "Master, master, you left too early, leaving the old slave alone, how can you let the old slave live?" Master, your life is bitter! ”

If Jiang Xinyao saw this scene, she would definitely give Fu Bo a thumbs up from the bottom of her heart. has a vivid expression, eloquence, and just the right timing, and is a good actor.

On the other hand, he is not strong enough, his rank is not enough, his heart is not strong, and his acting skills are clumsy, no wonder Jiang Quan knelt down and fell into the way of others, in the end, it is still too tender!

Zhou picked up Jiang Fu with his own hands, choked up, and said, "Steward Fu, I have wronged you." I believe you, this account, don't look at it. ”

Jiang Fu wiped a handful of tears and snot and said, "Old lady, the old slave is not wronged, the old slave can't wait to die for the master." ”

Jiang Hongsheng stepped forward and said: "Mother, my father has not yet entered the ground, so we don't have to worry about these things outside the body, so as not to chill my father's heart and make his old man not at peace under Jiuquan." ”

Zhou grabbed Jiang Hongsheng's hand and said, "My son, my mother is enchanted, and I can't stand your dead father." Fortunately, I have your reminder, otherwise, how would I have the face to see him! My son, mother's heart aches, your father, how did he say he would go away? After saying that, he hugged his son and cried a lot.

Jiang Hongjian was dumbfounded at this time, you are the second child, you say all the good things, I am the only one who is a bad person, and you are all good people, and I am the only one who is a bad person. Hey, this business is done, it's not a shame. That's it, that's it, and I started crying right now.

For a while, there was a burst of crying in the study, but Yan Ming, who was guarding outside, was startled, and the sound was still aggressive and tense just now, how could he cry again? Which one is this singing?

After some tossing, Zhou was exhausted, only to say that he was overly sad and unable to support, so everything was discussed by his two sons and uncles, and he was helped back to the room by Mama Qian to rest.

Since then, the two masters of the Jiang family have been crying and worshipping guests during the day, keeping vigil at night, burning incense and burning paper. The three young masters greeted the relatives and friends of the family who came to the door. The ladies were entertained by two grandmothers.

The wife's maiden home, the Marquis of Annan, was not sent to the funeral because of the long distance.

After seven days of silence, after dawn, as soon as the auspicious time came, Master Jiang gathered and performed the funeral ceremony. Because it was only buried from the front yard to the back garden, the journey was very short, and there was less tossing.

Xin Yao walked in the crowd, crying silently and haggard.

Gu Yuzhen looked at her daughter from afar, tears rolling down.

All the relatives and friends of the family were curious about why Master Jiang did not enter the ancestral grave, but was buried in the back garden of the old house, so they exchanged words and talked about it.

Xin Yao listened to it sincerely, only to feel sour in her heart.

After the event, there was a banquet in the front yard, and it was not lively for a while, Xin Yao said that she had a headache and went back to the room early to rest.

Jiang Xing took advantage of the no-man's land, pulled Jiang Fu and Jiang Quan to his side, and said in a dumb voice: "The two of you work hard, I am old, and I am a useless person, I can't help much, and the matter of the eldest brother will be entrusted to you in the future." ”

The three of them are all old acquaintances, they have known each other for decades, and they know the roots, so what do you need to say? The six eyes are facing each other, and the heart is clear.
