Since both sides have what they want, then there is nothing more reasonable and fair than "bartering", Wang Chengxian thought like this, so he agreed to Li Lanqi's "suggestion" and asked him for benefits at a "cost" that did not exist at all.

"If things are as Lan Qi expected, I will definitely live up to my uncle's hard work today."

Li Lanqi's words were quite ambiguous.

This is his consistent style, which can be said to be due to the influence of the atmosphere of the De Ping Bo Mansion, or it can be said that it is due to his cautious nature.

"It's all a family, how can you still say it like this!"

"Uncle, I'm going to help you inquire!"

With Li Lanqi's ambiguous promise, Wang Chengxian could no longer "force people too much".

He smiled and picked up the tea cup in his hand, took a few sips, and drank the tea only to the bottom of the bowl, then got up, picked up the dim sum box from Wang's "Rao", and said goodbye to the two and left.

People from Depingbo's Mansion will never be criticized for their poor manners.

Li Lanqi, of course, is no exception.

He got up with a smile, and after bowing deeply to Wang Chengxian, he stepped forward, turned sideways, and led him out of the house.

Before Lingjun was "summoned", he would not go to Deshui Xuan to disturb him and make himself uncomfortable.

But this does not mean that he can't go elsewhere and do things that help bring him closer to Lingjun, for example, going outside the city, his sister's dowry Zhuangzi, and persuading Zhu Shize, who is valued by Lingjun, to mourn.

……

Outside Yanjing City, Li Yuanru's dowry Zhuangzi.

Wooden houses, ponds, persimmon trees with a few fruits hanging from the branches, deck chairs under the trees, half-worn sheepskin blankets on the deck chairs.

The scene of the destruction of the past seems to have been deliberately returned to its original state, and it is also like it has never fallen from the fire a few years ago.

When he first arrived in Zhuangzi, Zhu Shize, who came to support the coffin, was slightly stunned, but soon, he recovered his previous cold look, and only ordered his subordinates to move the coffin into the main hall of the wooden house and park it, and sat on the recliner under the persimmon tree alone.

Because in the past few years, Zhu Shize has not been close to his wife Li Yuanru, so he did not let the people accompanying him feel strange or inappropriate when he behaved like this at this time.

"Xu is the seventh young master doesn't want to be in the same room with this woman who was as sticky as almond cake in his life, so he would rather go to the persimmon tree outside the house to blow the cold wind than come into the house to roast the fire!"

"Don't talk about it! It's a cold day! ”

"I heard that this woman is so annoying that the Seventh Young Master goes out to socialize, and when he returns later, he has to ask his subordinates to urge."

"Do you remember the one who died a few years ago, and the Li family who ruined most of his face? is the one who broke with the Dingguo Mansion in order to marry her as a flat wife! I've heard that this woman killed her! ”

A few people accompanying him, while discussing, took the gold paper and folded the "ingots" that would be used in the funeral.

They had no respect for Li Yuanru, and they didn't even want to call her "young lady".

"The dead are greater."

"She hasn't passed the first seven yet, and her soul hasn't gone far yet."

"If you talk about her like this, you are not afraid of causing trouble for yourself!"

A little guy who has been serving by Zhu Shize's side all the year round glanced at it with some sympathy, and placed it in the coffin in the main hall.

To be honest, he didn't hate Li Yuanru.

Although, the master of his family is always lukewarm to her, and he always hates her for nagging.

But she can always appear "coincidentally", and on the occasion when she should appear, either in person, or ask the people in the courtyard to help Zhu Shize, who was troubled, to relieve the siege.

The warm soup when it's cold, the fan when it's hot, the oil-paper umbrella when it's raining, the cloak when it's snowy, since she married into the door, she no longer has to work on them, and the people who are waiting by Zhu Shize's side worry about it, and over the years, there has never been a single omission.

He is just a subordinate, and he can't guess what kind of good match their young master yearns for.

But he felt that if he could marry a wife like Li Yuanru in his lifetime, who devoted all his thoughts to himself, it should be a very happy thing.

Respect each other like guests, raise eyebrows, isn't it always, in the story, is everyone envious of the marriage match?

Thinking of this, the little girl unconsciously looked past the open paper window and into the courtyard.

Seeing that Zhu Shize only wrapped the sheepskin blanket around his body, he shrank into the recliner under the persimmon tree without saying a word, so he hurriedly put down his hand, folded half of the gold paper, carried a cloak, and walked out of the wooden house quickly.

If the young lady is still here, how can the young master be allowed to lie in the ice and snow like this?

But now, no, it should be said that in the future, there should no longer be a chance to hear it, that belongs to her, only the women of the Northland will have, with three points of ridicule and blame!

"Rou'er!"

"I knew you wouldn't be able to see me like this!"

The warmth brought by the cloak made Zhu Shize instinctively bounce up from the recliner.

When you see it clearly, the person who came was his little servant, not Li Yuanru, and his eyes unconsciously showed a gloom of disappointment.

Most of the people who have lived in southern Xinjiang are far more paranoid about the resurrection of the dead than the northerners.

Zhu Shize led soldiers in the Southern Xinjiang Army for several years, and when he first arrived, he listened to the old doctors in the army, and those who have not passed the first seven years should be put under the sun to bask in the sun, and they will be able to live again.

Originally, he only thought that the military doctor was cunning and had no ability to save people's lives, so he made up such a trick to boost morale and make the soldiers fearless of death.

Later, two soldiers in the army who were bitten by poisonous snakes were put in the sun for three days after being put into the sun for three days, and then they came back to life inexplicably, and he had to believe it.

"Mrs. Rou, it's been a long time since you were gone, young master."

was mistaken by Zhu Shize for the person he liked, picked up from the northwest, and married a woman surnamed Li, who was married to a flat wife, because she didn't remember her first name, and he "named" Li Rouer.

Therefore, the people who served in Zhu Shize's courtyard would call her "Mrs. Rou".

Zhu Shize's tone was extremely strict, and the little guy had no way of knowing that the "Rou'er" he was calling at this time was not the "Mrs. Rou" they usually called, just because he was woken up in his sleep and had hysteria.

"I had a dream that she came back to life."

was answered by the little guy, and Zhu Shize came back to his senses.

He shook his head with a wry smile, didn't explain in detail the identity of the person he claimed, only took a deep breath, looked in the direction of the door of the wooden house, and changed his words by the way, "Is Yuanru okay?" Can the lid of the coffin be opened? Where the coffin is parked, may it be exposed to the sun? ”

"The matter of stopping the coffin was arranged by the young master's orders."

"When the little one saw that the wind was strong in the main hall, he took it upon himself to light two more braziers in the main hall and added an extra brocade quilt to the coffin."

This little guy has also been by Zhu Shize's side for many years.

When Li Yuanru was alive, he had never seen him treat her so carefully.

At this time, as soon as I heard his inquiry, I was busy and accused him.

After the death of a married woman, she needs to wait for the first seven years before she can be buried in a coffin.

In summer, you need to place an ice basin next to the coffin to prevent the corpse from decomposing and being judged by passers-by, and in winter, you need to place a brazier to prevent the tendons and veins from constricting, breaking the skin and causing criticism from the mother's family.

It's common sense.

So, when he did these things, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

But at this moment, listening to Zhu Shize first suddenly shouting the late "Mrs. Rou" sat up in shock, and then inexplicably asked him about the placement of the body of the young lady of their family, how dare he not tell it one by one?

"What's your name?"

Before, Li Yuanru was responsible for the internal affairs of the house, and Zhu Shize, except for a very few people, who followed and served by his side every day, remembered to call them, how could he remember the names and surnames of more inconsequential people?

At this time, I suddenly felt that this little guy was doing things quite according to his own heart, and when he looked at it, he felt that he was very familiar, so he casually asked him.

"Small, small Zhou, Zhouzhi."

Hearing Zhu Shize ask his name and surname, the little guy was immediately frightened, "plopped", and fell to his knees, for fear that it was what he did before, which was not in line with Zhu Shize's wishes, and he was punished.

The people in the mansion all know that the Seventh Young Master has a deep affection for the "Lady Rou" who died several years earlier, and it is rumored that the "Lady Rou" was killed by Li Yuanru, the lady of the main house, and died at a young age.

Isn't it, the Seventh Young Master just got the dream of that "Lady Rou", and he wants to take revenge on the newly deceased Mrs. of the main house and let her soul disappear?

"Know."

"You're doing a great job."

"From now on, just follow me and serve."

Zhu Shize nodded lightly, stretched out his hand, patted Zhou Zhi's left shoulder three times, then lifted the sheepskin blanket, stood up with his strength, moved, and walked towards the main hall of the wooden house.

He was full of thoughts that he wanted Li Yuanru to bask in the sun more in the place she was thinking about, to see if she could come back from the dead like the two soldiers who had been poisoned by snakes, but he forgot that at this time, it was the middle of winter, and the main hall with the door open was as cold as an ice cellar.

Fortunately, this clever little guy who called the well-known was clever and added a brazier and a brocade quilt to her, otherwise, wouldn't she have just inhaled yang energy and woke up, and she was frozen to death in the coffin!

"Yuanru has followed me for all these years, and she hasn't enjoyed a few days of stability, and now that she is dead, she has to be treated with such negligence by me."

"Today's matter is considered that I owe you a favor, and in the future, if you are in need, you can come to me to ask for it."

Zhu Shize's steps were very big, and he only spoke casually, and he had already walked a few feet away.

He seldom made promises to others, but today and now, it seems to be more ordinary and very different.

was confused by Zhu Shize's words, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that he was almost at the door of the wooden house, and Zhou Zhi hurriedly got up from the ground, trotted, and chased after Zhu Shize.

It seems that there are some things that you still have to see is believing, and you can't listen to rumors.
