Chapter 185: Funeral
After listening to him, Liu Zi'an's hand consciousness clenched San'er's hand fiercely.
"That is...... My mother...... My mother...... No more......" he shook for a while before he asked.
"Yes...... Childe, originally the family didn't want you to delay your studies and go to the funeral. It's just that the old slave thinks about it, you are also the eldest lady's favorite child, if you don't give her a ride, this ...... I'm afraid you all have regrets. Childe ......"
Liu Zi'an's tears flowed out of his eyes.
He suddenly screamed and grabbed the old steward's collar, "Impossible, you are talking nonsense, my mother came to see me off some time ago, she told me to study hard, and I will see my ancestors in the future." You are talking nonsense, how could my mother die, how could she ......"
San'er saw him lose control so much, and tears of fright flowed down his eyes. "Big brother, calm down, calm down, at this time, you must be calm."
Qian Xiaopang also shed tears, "Brother, I'll go with you." ”
Liu Zi'an looked at them blankly, and finally, numbly pushed into the carriage.
San'er didn't go up, "Two brothers, you go first, I have to hurry home and talk to my sister-in-law." ”
Hearing her sister-in-law, Qian Xiaopang's eyes were a little bright.
"Yes, yes, inform my sister-in-law."
Turning around, he comforted Liu Zi'an, "Brother, our sister-in-law will come over, don't be afraid." ”
"Hmm."
Liu Zi'an hung his head, but tears kept falling down.
In his mind, there was still the scene when Luo Hanxiao came to send him.
He shyly hugged his mother's waist and looked at her happy smile.
All of this is like being in front of you. However, today, when such news came out, he still couldn't believe it.
in the village.
Li Hongmei and Xiao Eryaer, Zhao's mother, Xiao Wu, and a few others followed Hongling to learn to make pastries here.
"The most important thing about this kind of red bean paste cake is how well the red beans are cooked. It's too soft, and you will only have a mouth full of sand when you eat it. If it's too hard, needless to say, this bread is the most defeated. And this rose, the proportion is the most important......"
As soon as Hong Ling talked about making these snacks, his face was full of happy smiles.
Li Hongmei found out.
As a sister-in-law, her favorite thing is probably to make food. Since the eldest sister-in-law came, she, the housewife, has also been freed from the tedious life of cooking.
All the meals and snacks at home are made by the eldest sister-in-law.
As for the dim sum of this era, Hongling knows a lot.
In this way, occasionally Li Hongmei is interested, thinking of some modern snacks, and will make suggestions, and Hongling will slowly think about it.
At this time, she is preparing to make a kind of petal cake with some fillings. And this is also a new way of eating proposed by Li Hongmei.
After all, flower cakes are very popular in modern times. Here, I don't know if anyone in the court is doing it.
Anyway, the people haven't heard of anyone doing it.
"I love roses, and I think they must taste good." The second girl swallowed her saliva with a yearning face.
Xiao Wu stared at the wild chrysanthemum on the side, "I think this flower is delicious." ”
"Haha, I think the lotus cake must be fragrant." Li Hongmei said with certainty. In modern times, she has never tasted lotus cakes, and she is quite yearning.
Zhao's mother summed it up very closely, "I think it's good, as long as it's made by the big girl, it's delicious." ”
Regarding Zhao's mother's remarks like this, Li Hongmei just laughed.
"Alas, I don't know, what kind of joy will the little fat man be when he sees so much food?"
The second girl laughed hesitantly, and added, "And Zi'an, the bad boy watched Sven's elegant movements, but when he ate, he was very fast." Needless to say, San'er has always been an anxious monkey-like horn, haha......"
Li Hongmei looked at the cake in front of her, "No matter what they look like, let's start ...... now"
After the words fell, several people stretched out their hands together, and saw that the cake they were optimistic about stretched out their claws.
"Sister-in-law...... Sister-in-law ......"
However, before the cake was handed to him, San'er's angry cry came.
Li Hongmei chuckled in her heart, and quickly put down the cake and got up to welcome it out.
"San'er, why are you alone? What about Qian Xiaopang and Liu Zi'an? ”
Zhao's mother also ran out.
San'er came back all the way.
At this time, I saw Li Hongmei and cried, "My eldest brother...... Big brother's mother, it's gone, it's gone, I'm back...... He who came back to report the funeral. ”
Li Hongmei breathed a little, and glared at him with a trembling voice, "Your eldest brother's mother...... Who are you talking about? Who's gone? Report the funeral, which one is the mourning? ”
San'er wiped her tears, "It's Liu Zi'an's eldest brother's mother, and she is the one who has a very good relationship with your sister-in-law." ”
Li Hongmei's eyes were dark, and Hongling hurriedly helped her, so she didn't rush to the ground and fell to the ground.
"Impossible, Sister Luo came to me a few days ago, how can you say that it's gone, I don't believe it!"
As she spoke, she was about to run outside.
Zhao Dashan was making a puppet on the side, listened to it, and hurriedly ran over to stop her.
"You wait, I'll go and bring some silver, pack up two sets of clothes, and then go." Funeral is a must. ”
Zhao's mother was also on the side, "Yes, yes, bring these snacks with you, they are delicious on the road." ”
At this time, where does the family still have the heart to eat snacks. Just put everything that should be packed together, packed it and rushed to mourn.
Walking on the road, Li Hongmei was anxious like a fire. At this moment, she couldn't wait to fly to Liujiazhuang immediately.
But there was no end in sight.
Zhao Dashan had to be much calmer after all, "Don't worry, lady, let's go and see what's going on." If people are really gone, we will not be able to do anything now......"
Li Hongmei knew that he was right, but she was still sad. Just pursed their lips and ran forward together.
Erya and Hongling were forcibly left at home by her, and San'er was not allowed to take them. The couple rushed to Liujiazhuang together.
The two of them hurried for a while, and finally arrived at Liujiazhuang that night.
"Our owner said that no idle people are allowed to enter."
However, outside Liujiazhuang, the couple was intercepted outside.
"We are Luo Hanxiao's good sisters, you are in charge, you are accommodating, we ......"
Li Hongmei said and stuffed a piece of silver into the hand of the steward. However, the stewards did not buy it.
"It's all said, our owner has an order not to let idle people in. Why are you two still so nonsense? Hurry up, hurry up, our owner is sad and sad at this moment. ”
"This steward, let's find Young Master Liu Zi'an, it's always okay."
Zhao Dashan saw that these two gatekeepers were stunned and refused to let in, so he switched to looking for Liu Zi'an.
However, it's okay not to mention Liu Zi'an. At this ment, the person in charge was even more impatient.
"Let's go, we're so sad that we're sad right now. How can I have time to receive countrymen like you, get out, get out of here. ”
Li Hongmei looked at the attitude of the steward and the gatekeeper, frowned, turned around, and pulled Zhao Dashan to turn around and leave.
When she arrived in a remote place, Li Hongmei lowered her voice. "Dashan, do you feel ...... Kind of weird, huh? ”
Zhao Dashan also nodded, "Yes, yes, generally speaking, if someone dies, he won't stop his acquaintances outside." However, now the owner of Liu Zhuang has intercepted people outside. This is obvious, and it doesn't make much sense. ”
Li Hongmei walked around anxiously, "I think, how can Sister Luo be so young and gone?" Also, how exactly she got there, I now feel that it is necessary to inquire. Let's go, Dashan, let's go and make an inquiry. ”
Liujiazhuang is still very big, but to the surprise of the two of them, they walked in front of them and waved their hands in unison, meaning that they should not be nosy.
In this way, Li Hongmei felt that this was even more wrong.
Why are there dead people, a picture that does not dare to talk about it.
The more I visited, the heavier my heart became.
"Dashan, I always feel that Sister Luo is going weird."
Zhao Dashan looked into the distance with a cold look in his eyes, "In this Liujiazhuang, we may not be able to inquire about the situation." Let's go to the village next door, I don't believe that there are impermeable walls in this world. ”
Next to Liujiazhuang there is also a plum village.
When the couple was resting for dinner at a family's house, they touched the situation.
"This Mrs. Liu's owner? Poor death, alas, you say, what's the use of a woman's ability? Say no, it's gone, now it's okay, the huge family business will be left to those aunts and their aunts' babies. ”
The two exchanged a look that was as expected. It seems that this woman is still very aware of the situation.
"By the way, why don't we go to the manor and let us mourn? That, could it be that Luo Hanxiao's relatives and friends don't let the funeral come? ”
The woman smiled and lowered her voice mysteriously.
"Let me tell you, this matter is not allowed to be mentioned in your Liujiazhuang. After all, is the owner of Liu Zhuang the village head, and he is the one in this area. I heard that his power outside is even more remarkable. Recently, I also found the daughter of the deputy city lord as an aunt. People are now going to fly on the branches as phoenixes. ”
Li Hongmei's eyes were slightly cold when she listened.
"How could the daughter of the deputy city lord fall in love with this Liu Zhuang master? Even if he has a little money, won't he? ”
The woman named Aunt Camellia looked at the two of them in some surprise. "You haven't seen Master Liu until now, have you?"
Seeing the embarrassed look of the couple, Aunt Camellia understood.
"No wonder. You haven't seen him in person, so it's no surprise that there are such doubts. Then the owner of Liu Zhuang is actually really a talent. Especially in these years, because the family business is rich, people have more time to move around outside. All kinds of people with status and grade have been dating for a long time, and their momentum and skill are also very ...... Attractive. The daughter of the deputy city lord, although it is said that she has a good status. But she's just a widow. You said that when you are young, you become a widow, no matter how much you have a net worth, people are not willing to marry.
If the conditions are not good, she can't look down on it.
I don't know why, some time ago, I guessed that I hooked up with Master Liu. I'm pregnant......"
