Thinking of this, I glanced at He Jianhua, he lowered his head and didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something, and when he saw me looking at him, he smiled awkwardly.

When Jiang Ye saw this situation, he seemed to be afraid that I would be mad, so he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Senior brother, now that the funeral of the old hero is the most important, please put aside your personal grievances first." ”

I nodded, glared at He Jianhua, then turned the topic to the funeral of the old hero, stretched out my finger and pointed to the coffins around me, and asked Jiang Ye suspiciously: "So many coffins are placed outside the ancestral hall, no one stops?" ”

Jiang Ye was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak, Luo Dajun beside him spoke, and said a lot of words in a Hebei accent.

He said Hebei dialect, and I didn't understand it at all, so I looked at Luo Dajun suspiciously, then looked at Jiang Ye, and said, "Senior brother, I'm going to trouble you again." ”

Jiang Ye came to his senses, and he told me that Na Luo Dajun meant that he had stopped it, but eight of the nine sons of the Lu family agreed to put the coffin at the door of the ancestral hall, and outsiders were also powerless and couldn't stop it at all.

Listening to this, I thought about it for a while, what Luo Dajun said is not unreasonable, the nine sons of the Lu family, rich and powerful, will definitely not be so particular about funeral etiquette. What's more, what they care about is not the funeral, but the priority of the old hero.

Subsequently, Luo Dajun also told me that in the past few days, the funeral of the old hero is normal, but there is only one thing, even now, the opinions are still not unified.

I asked him what was going on, and he said that before opening the road, he needed to write a 'open letter', and the nine sons of the Lu family were very quarrelsome about this matter.

As soon as I heard this, I knew very well that the so-called opening of the book is the name of Hebei here, and it is called 'obituary' (obituary: fu) on our side, commonly known as 'martyrdom' and 'mourning list', that is, the list text that describes the life and death of the deceased.

This kind of 'open book' is generally written on a blank paper with four or eight openings, and then notes on it 'taboo four phases', and this taboo four phases are the four zodiac signs that clash with the deceased, and they are pasted on the left side of the ancestral hall gate, and the deceased is a woman and pasted on the right side.

Of course, the nine sons of the Lu family are by no means quarreling over this, but because at the end of the 'open book', a person's name needs to be signed, according to traditional customs, this name should be the eldest son of the deceased, and to put it bluntly, it is the funeral master's family.

And the reason why the nine sons of the Lu family are fighting for this thing is probably because they are afraid that the name on the 'open book' will make Zhongnanhai mistakenly think that person is the master, so as to pass on the aura on the old hero to that person.

Sometimes, I have to say that people's hearts are really unpredictable. If it weren't for the aura of the old hero, I believe that there would definitely not be so many people fighting for this 'open book', and no one would care about it.

"Isn't there an old lady in charge of the funeral of the old hero? She doesn't care? I said in confusion.

Luo Dajun sighed and said: "In our Hebei side, there is a saying that the father is not there and the eldest son is in charge, so in the matter of 'opening a book', Mrs. Lu has no right and is not easy to manage." However, Lu Qiusheng, the ninth son of the Lu family, is the richest in the Lu family, and he disobeys the eldest son, so in this way, the brothers hold their own words. (Note: These words are all translated by Jiang Ye)

I nodded, just like the one who fought for the funeral. However, 'open the book' is different from the funeral master's house, in the part of the ceremony is particularly particular, whose name should be written, whose name should be written, must not be nonsense, once the wrong name is written, it will lead to the whole funeral in vain.

I suddenly remembered Lu Yaodong, the seventh son of the Lu family, that person seems to be very filial to the old hero, does he also want to write his name in the 'open book'?

I asked the doubts in my mind.

Luo Dajun smiled and said, "Boss Lu has withdrawn from the competition, and he is dedicated to staying by Mrs. Lu's side, ignoring this matter. ”

I was stunned, Lu Yaodong has withdrawn from the competition of 'opening a book'? This is unexpected, I remember when I first came to Quyang, I heard Jiang Ye say that Lu Yaodong was very filial to the old hero.

However, in the competition for the funeral owner's family, it is also quite interested. I didn't expect that this time I would take the initiative to withdraw from the 'book opening' dispute.

So, I asked him why.

Luo Dajun glanced at me, took out a cigarette, gave me one, and said, "I heard that it is related to Mrs. Lu, but I don't know what the specific reason is." ”

Hearing him say this, I didn't ask any more questions. After all, he is only responsible for the funeral, and many things are not clear, and if you want to know the specific things, you can only ask the old lady.

Later, we chatted for a while, and we couldn't participate in who wrote the 'opening book', so we could only wait for news.

Chatting, chatting, Luo Dajun inadvertently mentioned the remains of the old hero.

I immediately asked him, "Where is the coffin where the remains of the old hero are placed?" ”

He shook his head and said, "After you left with Jiang Ye, Old Lady Lu invited a platoon of soldiers to surround the old hero's dying house, and the nine coffins were carried in and out in turn, and there is no way to know where the old hero's body is placed." ”

"You didn't open the coffin?" I asked, confused.

He didn't speak, but gestured to the coffin beside him.

I looked down the place of his finger, and the coffin had been riveted into the shou nail, and I couldn't see the situation inside at all, I exclaimed, "Riveted into the shou nail in advance?" ”

He nodded and said, "Those metaphysical masters did a Taoist thing, saying that they could rivet the shou nails in advance. ”

Hearing this, I didn't say anything more, but asked him what he planned to do for tomorrow's funeral.

He said that after the person who 'opened the book' is determined, the nine funerals may be held at the same time, and the nine sons of the Lu family will each receive relatives and friends who come to attend the funeral.

As soon as I heard this, I felt a little angry in my heart, the old hero was famous, but I didn't expect the funeral to be so nonsense. Since Pangu opened the world, he has never heard of a few funerals for one person, and the nine sons of the Lu family are really helpless for the so-called priority.

What makes me depressed is why Zhongnanhai didn't come forward to stop this farce, but let the nine sons of the Lu family fool around here.

"Xiao Jiu, just do a good funeral, don't think about other things, some things are not something we can manage." Jiang Ye, who has been acting as a translator, patted me on the shoulder and said loudly.

I suppressed the anger in my heart, nodded, and looked up at the other coffins, which were also like this, nailed to death, and there were people standing in front of each coffin, discussing things.

Among those people, I saw Shuiyun Zhenren, who was standing next to the second coffin, talking to a blind man.

I focused on the ninth coffin, in front of which there were several young people around, and to my annoyance, the You Shusong was also among them.

PS: I will make it up tomorrow, and the daily update time will be changed to ten o'clock in the evening.
