Although he knew that there was bad news when he saw Aunt Mao's appearance, Zhuo Zhaojie didn't expect that the bad news turned out to be Ban's ......

It was the first time that the twin sons saw their mother crying regardless of her manners, and Aunt Mao hugged Ning Yitai into her arms and handed it to no avail, and the son's daughter and her subordinates were so frightened that they looked at each other. Ning Shaobi, who came in a hurry, ordered someone to send all the sons and daughters back to the house first, and accompanied his wife to Zhuo's house to ask for clarification.

At this time, the You family in the fourth room of the Zhuo family also cried very sadly, You Huan and others were probably released after being on the list, and now only the daughter-in-law and children and grandchildren are with them, some of these juniors have never seen Ban's at all, and they can't talk about much sadness, but seeing You's crying heartbreakingly, they are very nervous.

Zhuo Fangli is a man, although he has never shed tears, but his expression is also very gloomy. You Ruoheng will only die studying, and in those years of Chang'an, he relied on the Ban's internal and external hosting, socializing. Ban especially because of the 'daughter' to Zhuo Fangli, Liang died early, Zhuo Fangli's relationship with his stepmother Shen was very bad, and for a few years he regarded Ban as his mother. What's more, this mother-in-law helped wholeheartedly, and also raised a young 'daughter' for him, she has always been generous and hearty, and she has never coveted the cheapness of the Hou Mansion, which is really worthy of the respect of the younger generations.

Now he is gone......

Zhuo Fangli reminisced about the past, and only felt infinitely melancholy.

When Zhuo Zhaojie returned to his parents' house, he first cried with You Shi and others, and he was able to stop it in the afternoon, and asked what happened - You Shi said with tears: "It was said that on the morning of the fifth day, your grandfather found that something was wrong when he got up, and he knew that it was night...... Went to ......"

Ban is seventy-seven years old this year, which is considered a long life at this age. went peacefully and calmly, and there were many children and grandchildren under his knees, and several of them had fame—speaking of which, he was a blessed person in this life.

He's and Gu Pan'er both persuaded like this, but as a 'daughter' and grandchild', Ban's life to the age of eighty felt too short.

Zhuo Zhaoqiong, who also received the news and hurried back, had never seen her grandmother, although she was also sad out of flesh and blood, but in the end she was not as good as her mother and sister, and after crying, she helped her sister-in-law persuade her. Tang Shenzhi, who arrived one step later, was no worse than Zhuo Zhaojie, and the You family couldn't stop crying because of him, and he felt that the Ban family finally didn't hurt these juniors in vain.

After crying and talking, I talked about the funeral - because You Huan, Song Weiyi, Bai Zijing, these grandsons and grandsons-in-law are eunuchs in Tiannan and Haibei, Chang'an still has noble relatives like Houfu, and Zhuo Zhaojie, who was raised by Ban, is now also the mother of Yongguo Mansion, these people are not in Moling, if Ban goes and does not wait for them to handle the funeral, it will be too cold, and it seems that these people are not taken seriously.

Of course, the You family would not do this, although it was now June, but they still used ice to freeze the corpse and wait for the children and grandchildren to arrive before saluting. Now that the letter has been sent, it is to ask who will go back to Chang'an to offer condolences.

Zhuo Zhaojie was naturally the first to shout to go. Although You was persuaded by her juniors that the weather was too hot and she was getting older, she still insisted on sending her mother off in person after consideration. Of course, this kind of major event is impossible for two 'daughters' to come forward, Zhuo Fangli is a loose official in the shadow, there is no official envoy horizontally and vertically, thinking of the kindness of his mother-in-law, he asks for 'sex' to accompany his wife and 'daughter' to go on a journey.

And Zhuo Fangli and You's have gone, and their children and grandchildren have also moved their minds, but it is impossible for Chang'an not to leave people behind - because the children still don't want to take them with them, lest they be too young and have accidents on the road.

After the discussion, Zhuo Zhaozhi's husband and 'wife' were left to guard the house, in fact, it didn't matter which one Zhuo Zhaozhi or Zhuo Zhaocui stayed, but after You's left, there must be a housewife in charge of the four rooms, He's has long been able to take charge of himself, and he is not as young as He's sophistication in the family.

As for Zhuo Zhaoqiong, Juyang Bofu couldn't leave her - or she didn't worry about the two concubines in her absence, so she decided not to go.

Zhuo Wuwu and Zhuo Wuji are now eleven years old, and it is the time to be naughty and naughty, although they have never seen Ban, but they have long admired the customs of Jiangnan, and they are also clamoring to send their great-grandmother. But Zhuo Fangli and You Shi were afraid of today's heat, so they didn't agree in the end - they didn't bring anyone in their generation, so it was convenient to leave immediately.

The Zhuo family had discussed it here almost before they remembered that they hadn't asked anyone yet, Tang Shenzhi had been crying silently beside him before, and said abruptly at this moment: "If I don't send a grandmother, how can I be called a person?" ”

And so the man settled.

- Although Ning Shaobi was worried about her three sons and daughters, and this time Zhuo Zhaojie was also accompanied by her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law, so she hesitated and decided not to accompany Zhuo Zhaojie to the funeral, but to stay and take care of her sons. But the identity of the Marquis of Tang Shenzhi is not much worse than the identity of the prince of Ning Shaobiguo, who died well in old age, and the younger generations who have such a good future mourn and mourn, but the reputation of the Moling You clan has also spread far away.

Especially Tang Shenzhi's life experience, he has enough of Ban's good name.

But no matter how grand this kind of mourning is, it can't be replaced by the kind old man with a kind smile and a serious speech in the Duanyi Garden.

You Ruoheng was also deeply affected after his old wife went, he was already a little wooden, but this time he was very sluggish. Seeing that people are secretly frightened, they always feel as if his days are not long.

I haven't seen my parents for decades, and You's is really sad to see this scene.

Youjia was originally the famous 'door' of Moling, a famous scholarly home in the south of the Yangtze River, and the old lady died, and she was like a cloud. Shi Huan and the eldest princess of Huarong, who were saying goodbye to the elderly, also helped them to go to the 'door' in person to comfort You Ruoheng - Zhuo Zhaojie took this opportunity to meet with Mu Kong Cicada.

When they met, of course, Mu Kongcian comforted her first and said some funeral, Mu Kongcian asked about Chang'an, and learned that her aunt Queen Mu was worried about herself, and she also mentioned Hongnu, and she also sighed with some emotion: "They all say that Jiangnan is good, but after I came, I found that my hometown is more missive after all, and I think I still want to go back to Chang'an to live in the future." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie smiled reluctantly: "Hongnu has to go to Beijing to take the exam when he is older, and your house is not sold, it is all there." ”

"It is said that you will take Teruo and Kyausume away this time?" Seeing that her interest was not high, Mu Kongcian also dispelled the idea of a long talk, and opened the 'door' to ask.

Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, my eldest cousin just passed away before, and I had this plan, so I mentioned it to my mother." It's just that she was pregnant at the time, and her grandmother was still there, so I thought about it later, where do I know......" She couldn't help but cry again.

Mu Kongcian hurriedly wiped her with a handkerchief, frowned, and said, "It turned out to be raised under your knees?" Strange way: Now the second lady and the third lady of the You family are trying their best to ...... "Speaking of this, she seems to feel that it is not good to say that the You family is not good in front of Zhuo Zhaojie, so she hurriedly stopped talking.

"Second and third aunts?" Zhuo Zhaojie was stunned for a moment and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"What else could have happened?" Mu Kong Cicada raised his chin and called the 'girl' to go out to watch, and whispered, "The You family is considered a big family in Moling, but it can't be compared with the nobles of Chang'an!" Originally, your nephew and niece 'daughter' was a person in the long house, and he had a double property in his name, and your eldest aunt had already gone, and the eldest cousin and sister-in-law had remarried—if these two were raised in other houses, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to calculate some benefits? Not only that, but they raised their nephews and nieces! It's better now......"

Zhuo Zhaojie frowned, she grew up in You's family, she knows best who these uncles are, especially the third uncle Lian, who has always been stingy and short-sighted, when You Shuo went, You and Zhuo Zhaojie were worried about You Zhao, You Jiaoniang, especially You Jiaoniang's upbringing, but they didn't worry about these aunts and cousins.

At that time, I only thought that they would not pay attention to You Jiaoniang or teach You Jiaoniang badly, but I didn't think that although so, these houses coveted the property of the big house through these two brothers and sisters......

"This is what Moling is secretly spreading now, but it's not me talking nonsense to instigate your relatives." Mu Kongcia saw that she frowned and was silent, but she would be wrong, and hurriedly reminded, "If you don't like to listen, just because I haven't said it, I just think that you are patronizing and sad now and don't know these things, don't offend your relatives without any precautions but don't know what's going on." ”

"How so?" Zhuo Zhaojie thought that the eldest aunt Jiang had just passed away, and the second and third aunts had seized the right to steward in open and secret battles...... Thinking of the events of that year, she thought of Ban again, she felt uncomfortable, and paused for a moment before saying, "The eldest aunt and eldest cousin both died early, and Zhaolang and Kyaukniang are very pitiful, if anyone still wants to make up their minds, I must tell my grandfather and uncle." ”

Mu Kongcian saw that she didn't complain about her talking, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Now there are more things than that, originally the rumors said that they were just brought to the Zhuo family to raise, although the Zhuo family is also a Hou 'door', but it is not your father who attacked the lord, not to mention that your parents have a lot of children and grandchildren, in the end they will take care of their own children and daughters...... I'm not jealous of them yet. But if it's for you to raise...... Even I, an outsider who has only been in Jiangnan for a short time, have heard how much Mrs. Ban loved you back then, you can be in charge of the Ning family, how rich and noble the Ning family is now, and there are few people, do you want to talk about the future of these brothers and sisters? These...... Well, you'd better consult with your parents. ”

was reminded by Mu Kongciao, after Zhuo Zhaojie sent her away, he went to look for You's, and before he said a word, You's sneered: "Your second aunt just left, and the meaning of the words is to let Xue Niang follow us!" ”

You Xueniang is the grandson 'daughter' of the second room, and Zhuo Zhaojie's second cousin You Ju's 'daughter' - Zhuo Zhaojie couldn't help but be silent for a while when he heard this, and You Shi said: "The third room also means the same!" They all feel that since the grandchildren of the big house can be raised in Chang'an, their children and grandchildren will suffer if they don't go, and they don't want to think about it...... Shuo Lang's life is miserable, these two children are pitiful, why should we 'intervene' this hand? Your second aunt is fine, your third aunt is ...... The meaning of the words is to say that we are plotting against your uncle's share of the industry! It's ridiculous! ”

"Third aunt...... It's that person. Zhuo Zhaojie sighed, Yixing Yanshan, Moling Youjia is a warm and attached place in her memory, but she didn't expect that when she came back again, it was not only for the funeral, but also for the face of several aunts and uncles when Ban was gone...... My grandmother is gone, and so are my relatives...... is different from the wanderer when he was a teenager, after all.

Only then did she realize that her heart was thinking about a certain place, and in the final analysis, it was just because of people.

Now that there are no more people, although there are still differences between this place and other places, the difference is not as big as thought.

She settled down and said, "Don't ignore the words of the third uncle, how can a 'door' like us covet the things of the eldest uncle?" It's just that...... The eldest uncle is also getting older, and the property of Zhaolang and Kyauniang, not to mention, the sacrificial fields that the big house wants to inherit can't be taken away, and these eldest uncles don't care much......"

"I want the second, third, and fourth rooms to help manage each other, supervise each other, and share a part of their annual profits." You Shi sighed, and forced the 'spirit' to think about You Zhao and You Jiaoniang, "Although your eldest uncle has been a parent official, these chores ...... He can manage it, but he doesn't care, and he is not a 'fine' person. The second and third rooms have such an idea now, Zhao Lang and Jiao Niang must not stay, originally I thought that Zhao Lang is Lang Jun, and now he is nine years old, and staying in Moling to accompany your uncle is also...... But your eldest uncle may not be able to protect him, don't let the second and third rooms think crookedly about him. ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said: "Uncle has four cousins here, although he is silent, he seems to be quite filial. ”

"Ignore your uncle." In front of his own 'daughter', You Shi 'revealed' a little resentment towards You Fei, "If he was willing to be more restrained back then, your eldest aunt wouldn't be too 'bothered', if you can live until now, where would the second and third rooms dare to hit the big house?" ”

It's easy for people to take away, and it's inevitable that the industry will suffer losses, and You said, "San Lang, Ba Lang, and Wu Niang don't say it, you were raised by your grandmother, and now you are living a good life." The property that Zhaolang and Kyauniang suffered, if you are willing in the future, you will make up for them. Horizontal and vertical are not a lot of money for you...... Don't come out of the Ning family, this matter has nothing to do with the Ning family, just come out of your dowry. ”

Zhuo Zhao nodded: "This is as it should be." She hesitated, and then said, "Actually, my grandmother gave me a sum of money back then......

The tens of thousands of silver tickets given by the Ban family before, following the meaning of the Ban family, Zhuo Zhaojie's own share was never told to others, but the You family didn't know, listening to her at this moment, she couldn't help but burst into tears, and said: "Poor mother, she is afraid that your father will not be able to fight the Shen family, once your fifth uncle inherits the knighthood, we will be kicked out of the room empty-handed!" ”
