Chapter 291: Return to the village and be buried
"No, it won't." Chen Menghui said with a smile.
Xie Qi came in and watched his sister holding her mother's arm, still frowning slightly as she did when she was not married, but she didn't speak.
"Why didn't you bring Xiaocui back with you?"
Seeing her brother ask Xiaocui, Xie Yu'er let go of her mother's hand, and then said, "She has recently been infected with a cold, I asked her to stay in the house to recuperate, brother, do you have something to do with Xiaocui?" ”
"It's okay, it's just that I wonder why she didn't come back with you, after all, it's my Xie Mansion who followed you over." Xie Qi said with a smile.
Mrs. Xie listened to the conversation between the brother and sister, frowning slightly, it seems that her son has something to do with this Xiaocui, and then she must ask her son in private.
Chen Menghui was on the side, drinking tea with his eyes low, but he listened to what they said.
It seems that this Xiao Cui has a lot to do with Xie Qi, or it may be said that Xiao Cui is the person Xie Qi installed in the Chen Mansion.
"Madam, young master, the dish is ready." The butler came over and said, just breaking the awkward atmosphere.
Mrs. Xie hurriedly beckoned: "Okay, let's go over and sit down." ”
Mrs. Xie helped her daughter over.
Chen Menghui smiled at Xie Qi, smiling a little weirdly, Xie Qi glanced at him and walked out of the door of the main hall before him.
……
In the afternoon, Xie Qi and Chen Menghui were still drinking, and Mrs. Xie took her daughter to her yard to talk.
"Mother, do you have something to tell me?" Entering the door, Xie Yuer asked.
"Sit down first." Mrs. Xie pointed to the soft couch on the side.
Xie Yuer sat down and looked at her mother, waiting for her mother's answer.
Mrs. Xie saw her daughter looking at her, and only spoke after a while.
"Yu'er, your baby should be a girl."
"Impossible." Xie Yuer immediately refuted, and then said, "They say sour and spicy girls, I like to eat sour since I was pregnant, how can I be a daughter." ”
Seeing that her daughter was excited, Mrs. Xie was worried that she was giving birth prematurely, so she hurriedly comforted her.
"Don't get excited, my mother is just talking, not necessarily accurate, but my mother still has to remind you."
"Mother, you say."
Xie Yuer is very uneasy now, she was sure that her baby was a boy, but her mother told her that it was a girl at this time, how could she feel at ease.
"If this baby is a boy, then you have to find a way to get pregnant again, and if you want to sit firmly in the Chen family, you must give birth to a boy." Mrs. Xie looked at her daughter and said.
Listening to her mother's words, Xie Yu'er felt even more uneasy.
"Mother, how do you know that my child is a girl?" Xie Yuer felt that her mother was from the past, and she must know more than her, and she had experience.
"Generally men play left, women play right."
After hearing this, Xie Yu'er felt bad, and reached out to grab her mother's arm.
"Mother, what should I do? If this is a girl, what will I do in the future? ”
"If it's a girl, you find a way to conceive another one." Mrs. Xie held her daughter's hand.
Xie Yu'er shook her head: "Mother, how is this possible, Brother Meng Hui, he won't touch me at all." ”
"He doesn't touch you, how did you get pregnant?" Mrs. Xie thought that as long as she drunk Chen Menghui, she would definitely be able to do it.
No matter how stupid Xie Yu'er was, she could hear the meaning of this, she was stunned.
"Mother, can this work?"
"If it doesn't work, we'll see when the time comes." Mrs. Xie said.
Xie Yu'er stopped talking.
An hour later, Xie Qi was drunk by Chen Menghui, and Chen Menghui was almost drunk, and finally was helped to Xie Yuer's original place by his subordinates.
Xie Yuer talked to her mother for an afternoon.
It was dark, Chen Menghui woke up, looked at the person in front of him, he shook his head, frowned, and then sat up and rubbed his head,
"Where is this?"
"Where I used to live."
After listening to her words, he turned his head to look outside, only to see that it was pitch black outside, and he frowned.
"When?"
"After a while of dark, I have already sent someone back, saying that we will stay here for one night and go back tomorrow, Brother Meng Hui, you won't blame me for making an assertion, right?" Xie Yu'er looked at him very carefully.
Seeing her like this, Chen Menghui didn't speak, got up and walked to the table, wanting to pour a glass of water to drink.
Xie Yu'er saw that he wanted to drink water, so she hurriedly went over to pour it for him, but was stopped by Chen Menghui.
"Did you have dinner?"
"Have you eaten, Brother Meng Hui, are you hungry? I'll let someone bring me food. Xie Yuer thought he was hungry.
"No, you don't." Chen Menghui stopped her, and then said, "Since you have eaten, then you rest, and I will go outside to sober up." ”
After Chen Menghui finished speaking, he opened the door and went out.
Xie Yu'er watched the door being closed, and the expression on her face turned cold.
The drunk brother Meng Hui actually called the woman's name.
Her hands clenched, her teeth clenched.
……
"Ahh
Qingzhu was adding charcoal to the fire, heard the sound of sneezing, and hurriedly went over.
"Madame, do you have a cold?"
Zhou Yiran rubbed her nose, shook her head and said, "No, it's just that your nose is itchy suddenly, you go down and rest!" ”
"Okay." Qingzhu answered and retreated from the room.
……
The next day, Qingzhu opened the door and looked at Chen Yu and Chen Lan at the door, she was stunned.
Zhou Yiran, who was behind Qingzhu, saw the two of them and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
"The young master asked us to come over and help bury the Miaozi's mother."
Miao Zi heard this and hurriedly said thank you to the two of them.
"No, you don't." After Chen Lan finished speaking, she went over to help bring the carriage out.
At this time, there was a coffin on the carriage, and the coffin contained Miaozi's mother.
Today, several people were wearing white clothes, and Chen Lan and Chen Yu were wearing black clothes.
"Auntie, you sit up, let's walk." Miaozi said to her.
Zhou Yiran didn't earn with her, and got into the carriage by herself.
Chen Lan led the carriage away, and Chen Yu was behind.
In fact, it was warmer to walk, and sitting in the carriage, I felt cold.
After walking for almost an hour, they arrived at Zhangjiawan.
There are not many families in Zhangjiawan now, but when they saw a carriage entering the village, they all looked here, and when the carriage approached, they could see who it was.
It's just that their eyes are looking at the coffin in the carriage.
Li Yan also came out, saw Zhou Yiran coming back, immediately stepped forward, and then asked.
"Who is this who died?"
"Miaozi's mother." Zhou Yiran looked at Miao Zi after speaking.
Miao Zi didn't cry or make trouble, he stood here very quietly, with no smile on his face.
From the first year of junior high school to the present, she has never smiled.
When Li Yan heard that Miaozi's mother died, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Wasn't it good to leave? Why is it gone? ”
"Maybe some people are not good to others." Liu He spoke up at this time.
Li Yan immediately scolded her back: "You accumulate some virtue!" ”
Zhang Kai glared at Liu He, Liu He pouted, turned around and went back to her house, she felt unlucky.
As soon as Liu He left, he opened his mouth and asked Miaozi: "Do you want to help?" ”
"Thanks, no need." Miao Zi said.
Zhou Yiran took out the key and opened the door of his house.
Qingzhu Tsing Yi immediately followed up, and after a while, they came out.
Tsing Yi held two hoes in his hands, and Qingzhu held a shovel and two pinches of baskets in his hands.
Chen Yu took the shovel in Qingzhu's hand in the past, and then went to take the hoe in Qingyi's hand.
Tsing Yi looked at Chen Yu for a moment, and then looked at his sister.
Qingzhu saw his sister looking at him, and hurriedly followed his wife over.
The corners of Tsing Yi's lips curled up and he smiled.
Zhang Tian looked at Chen Lan and Chen Yu, and the two young men didn't say anything more.
With tools in hand, a group of people went up the mountain.
Chen He told her that day that she should go quietly, saying that she didn't need to invite any mages to do things.
Miao Zi originally wanted to invite, but after she conveyed what Chen He said to Miao Zi, Miao Zi listened to her mother's words and did not invite the mage.
When they arrived at the mountain and looked for a place with mountains and rivers, Chen Lan and Chen Yu began to dig a pit.
……
After burying Chen He, Miao Zi knelt here to burn paper for her mother.
Li Yan also wanted to come over, but was stopped by her mother-in-law, saying something unlucky.
It was almost noon, and Miao Zi turned back to her behind her.
"Auntie, go back first! I want to spend a little more time here with my mother. ”
Zhou Yiran understood her feelings, so she said to Qingzhu: "Qingzhu, you stay and watch her." ”
"Yes, ma'am." Qingzhu nodded.
Only Qingzhu is here, she is relieved.
Seeing this, Chen Yu immediately said: "I will also stay, and the young master has an explanation to ensure the safety of you and Miaozi." ”
Chen Lan looked at his younger brother and felt that he was a little abnormal.
Seeing this, Zhou Yiran nodded.
"Okay, then you stay and watch them."
After she finished speaking, she said to Miaozi: "Miaozi, don't be too late, go back early, you know?" ”
Miaozi nodded, indicating that she understood.
Looking at Miaozi, she turned her head and walked away with Tsing Yi and Taohong.
When Chen Lan left, he glanced at his younger brother and hesitated, but finally turned around and left.
As soon as Chen Lan left, Chen Yu walked to Qingzhu's side.
Seeing him coming, Qingzhu immediately moved a few steps to the side.
At first, Chen Yu thought it was his own delusion, but now he understands that it was not an illusion before, but she deliberately avoided herself.
Seeing this, Chen Yu immediately leaned over to her, and then reached out and pinched her arm, forcing her to unable to move.
"You let go." Qingzhu was annoyed and blushed.
If it weren't for Miaozi being here, she would definitely be a loud dog, and there was no need to deliberately lower her voice like this.
Chen Yu didn't let go, and also lowered his voice and said to her, "Are you afraid of me? ”
"Nope." Qingzhu said.
"Why is that?"
"Let go." Qingzhu's face flushed.
Miao Zi looked back at them, stared at them, and said nothing.
Seeing this, Chen Yu immediately let go of Qingzhu's arm, and then took a few steps back.
Qingzhu lowered his head and covered himself.
Miaozi turned her head and continued to burn paper for her mother.
Chen Yu kept looking at Qingzhu, and Qingzhu always felt that there was a pair of eyes looking at her, and she felt very uncomfortable.
She felt uneasy standing here.
Perhaps Chen Yu noticed her discomfort, withdrew his eyes, and then turned his head to look away.
As soon as his eyes left, Qingzhu felt that the feeling of being watched was gone, and the whole person relaxed.
It was about early afternoon before the seedlings got up.
Qingzhu saw that she almost fell, and immediately went over to help her.
"It's okay, it's okay to move around." Miao Zi said to Qingzhu.
