After Gao Qiuniang sat down, she saw that the room was full of children, and it was not convenient to speak.

She looked at her two stepsons and three sons-in-law, and said:

"It's getting late, let the children go back and rest."

Changsun Hong and other older children left the front hall after saluting Gao Qiuniang.

The Ku clan and the Helan clan arranged for the slaves and maids of their own courtyard to bring the children back to their respective courtyards.

In the end, only Zhen, Changsun Wuyi and his wife, Changsun Wuxian and his wife, Changsun Wuji, Guanyin and Ding Niangzi remained.

------

The crowd sat down on low couches on either side of the vestibule.

As soon as the children left, the antechamber fell silent again.

Gao Qiuniang suppressed her sadness and said calmly:

"You have all seen that my father is getting sicker and sicker."

"Yesterday, when Dr. Sheng of the Tai Medical Department came to consult him, he said, "Your father is already a medicine stone."

"Today, the eldest uncle and the third uncle came to visit the patient and confessed, so that they could prepare for him."

Speaking of this, Gao Qiuniang's eyes were red, and her voice was a little choked.

After calming down her emotions a little, Gao Qiuniang continued:

"I'm a woman, and now I'm in turmoil, and I'm not at ease."

"There are many affairs in the house, and you brothers and concubines still need to take care of them."

------

Although the eldest grandson Wuxian is the third, he is the oldest among the sons-in-law, and his status in the family is higher than that of the other sons.

In the past, when Changsun Sheng went out, he took care of the affairs of the house.

It is customary for the family to be the eldest heir.

Therefore, he should be the main one in handling the aftermath for his father.

Now, listening to Gao Qiuniang talking about preparing for his father's funeral, the eldest grandson Wuxian preemptively said:

"Sharing the sorrows of the mother is within the child's share of the child. Mother will only tell us, and we will do our best."

Gao Qiuniang nodded in approval, and then said:

"This matter is not ordinary, there are many clues, and everything is cumbersome, so there can be no mistakes."

"San Lang has to discuss everything with his second brother, and then ask his uncle and uncle to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

The eldest grandson, Wuxian, paused, and said, "What my mother said is very true, and Wuxian understands."

------

In fact, who should take the lead in preparing for Changsun Sheng's funeral, Gao Qiuniang was very conflicted in her heart.

If the eldest grandson Wuxian is now in charge, Gao Qiuniang is a little worried.

First, I am afraid that he will be addicted to alcohol, and he is afraid that he will make a mistake when he drinks.

The second is that the eldest grandson Sheng has decided to play the imperial court, and the eldest grandson Wuji will inherit the heir.

When the eldest Sun Sheng dies, the imperial court will issue an edict to praise and mention the matter of inheriting the heir.

At that time, even if the eldest grandson Wuxian doesn't make trouble, he may be angry and leave everything behind.

If you don't let him take charge now.

The eldest grandson Wuxian must have doubts in his heart.

Maybe there will be a lot of noise before Changsun Sheng's sickbed right now, and there will be a lot of incidents.

------

Therefore, Gao Qiuniang must be prepared with both hands.

Let the eldest grandson Wuyi participate in everything now, so as not to make a mess when the eldest grandson Wuxian leaves it alone.

After making up her mind, Gao Qiuniang looked at the eldest grandson Wuyi and explained to him,

"Erlang, you are the elder brother, you can't let Saburo bear everything alone, you have to take the initiative to share some of it for Saburo, and you have to help him get an idea for everything."

The eldest grandson Wuyi is a concubine, although he is an official of the Wupin court outside, but he is different from the concubine in the family, and he can't stand too high in many things.

Hearing Gao Qiuniang's arrangement, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

The eldest grandson Wuyi thought in his heart that this was just Gao Qiuniang's intention to take care of his face as a brother.

Although he did not understand Gao Qiuniang's deep meaning, the eldest grandson Wuyi still replied respectfully,

"Mother rest assured, Wu Yi will definitely do her best to help the third brother."

------

Gao Qiuniang saw that the eldest grandson Wuyi was a little perfunctory, so she didn't say anything more.

then explained to Zhen, "These days, I am already emaciated, and the affairs of the inner courtyard will be taken care of by the lady Lang."

"Erlang Lady and Saburo Lady also help to fight."

Zhen hurriedly responded.

When Helan saw that Gao Qiuniang had handed over the power of the housekeeper of the inner courtyard to the Zhen family, he was very dissatisfied.

But she didn't dare to come out, so she had to follow Ku's only promise.

------

Since ancient times, China has paid attention to the right name.

There is a saying in the Analects: "If the name is not right, the word is not good; If you don't say it, you won't get it done."

The noble family of the family values the name even more.

There are eldest grandsons and Gao Qiuniang, and without their authorization, the son and daughter-in-law are arrogant if they call the shots without permission.

Therefore, if Gao Qiuniang didn't say anything, the stepsons wouldn't even dare to mention it.

If you are not careful, you may make a big taboo and cause some criticism.

Now, with Gao Qiuniang's authorization, the eldest grandson Wuxian is in charge of the outer court, and Zhen is in charge of the inner court, and the two of them can do things justly.

------

After assigning the things they had to do, Gao Qiuniang looked at the eldest grandson Wuyi and the eldest grandson Wuxian and said:

"In the past few days, your father has been inseparable from his bedside."

"I have asked people to pack up the things, you and the children, you can take turns to serve the sick, and finally do some filial piety."

The eldest grandson Wuxian said: "It is the duty of children and grandchildren to fulfill filial piety and serve decoction before bed."

Then, the men discussed some urgent preparations before returning to their lodgings.

------

On the morning of the second day, Guanyin shouted to play chess and offer books, saying that she was going to Xiushui Pavilion to find the fourth brother Sun Wuji.

In fact, she had other plans.

Yesterday, I heard Gao Qiuniang say that Li Shimin was leaving the Changsun General's Mansion today.

Guanyin was really a little reluctant in her heart, and wanted to go over to send Li Shimin.

After more than two years of getting along, we read books and play together.

Guanyin was moved by Li Shimin's extraordinary charm and deeply liked this brother who was two years older than herself.

But this kind of relationship is different from the love between men and women, and it is more of pure friendship and brother and sister love.

Guanyin felt that Li Shimin was really different.

He is ambitious, carefree, and hardworking.

The whole person exudes a vigorous and upward contagion, affecting everyone around him.

------

Out of Hanmo Zhai, along the pebble road on the east side of Chengxin Lake to the north, walk a short distance to turn right, and you will arrive at the entrance of Xiushui Pavilion.

When the old servant of the gate saw Guanyin coming, he hurried up to greet him.

Guanyin didn't let the old servant go in to report, and walked straight to the backyard.

I entered the backyard door and walked along the west verandah to the main house.

The maidservant Yun Shu was guarding the door, and when she saw Guanyin coming, she bowed her knees with her crossed hands and bowed to greet her, "Hello Sanniang."

Guanyin asked as she walked, "What are the fourth brothers busy with?"

Yun Shu said as he led Guanyin into the house,

"Shiro-kun is talking to Erlang-kun of the Li family in the room."

------

In the west room of the main house, by the window, there is a few cases, and before going to Chengnan Manor, it is where Li Shimin reads and writes.

Right now, the three brothers Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and Changsun Hong, the five of them are sitting around talking together.

For more than two years, several people have gotten along day and night, and they have become brothers and sisters with each other.

At the time of parting, there is naturally a lot to say.

Guanyin saw that a few people were talking lively, and giggled:

"What are you talking about? No one even paid attention to me coming."

The three of them, Changsun Hong, Changsun Zhan and Changsun Jian, saw that it was the little aunt who came, and hurriedly stood up and saluted.

The eldest grandson Wuji asked, "Is there something wrong with Ah Maiden looking for me?"

With a mischievous tone, Guanyin said with a smile:

"I'm not here to find you, I'm here to see Brother Shimin."

He was not polite when he spoke, and sat opposite Li Shimin.

------

Turning his head to see that the three of them were still standing, he took out the appearance of the elders and ordered,

"Ah Hong, you can sit down too."

The eldest grandson Zhan teased Guanyin with a hippie smile,

"Little aunt, you have taken my seat."

Guanyin saw that she really occupied his place.

It turned out that Li Shimin was by the window, the eldest grandson Wuji was sitting in the west, and the eldest grandson was gradually sitting in the east.

Changsun Hong and Changsun Zhan sat opposite Li Shimin.

Now Guanyin sat casually and snatched the seat of the eldest grandson Zhan.

Guanyin replied to the eldest Sun Zhan,

"You mean the little aunt has taken over the magpie's nest, don't you?"

Eldest Sun Zhan still smiled and said, "Ah Zhan doesn't dare to say that."

Guanyin instructed Yun Shu,

"You move another low couch for Brother Shimin's head."

Yun Shu put down the low couch as he said.

The eldest grandson Hong and Guanyin changed seats again.

Let her sit next to the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin opposite.

Then the three of them sat down again.

------

Several people sat down again, and Guanyin looked at Li Shimin, showing an unhappy look on her face.

"Brother Shimin, do you really want to leave? Why don't I tell A-Niang that you're still living here."

After all, she was young and didn't really understand the real reason why Gao Qiuniang asked Li Shimin to leave.

Guanyin didn't know that now Changsun Sheng was seriously ill and might die in a few days.

Soon, the whole family will be filial piety for the eldest grandson.

As an outsider, how could Li Shimin still live in the Changsun General's Mansion?

Li Shimin naturally knew the reason for leaving, but this matter could not be said to Guanyin, who was less than nine years old.

So he found some polite words and explained to Guanyin,

"My uncle is seriously ill, and the whole family is busy taking care of him."

"If I still live here, my aunt will have to take time out to take care of me, which will cause trouble for my aunt."

Guanyin disagreed, "Brother Shimin is so obedient, where is the trouble for A-Niang?"

------

The eldest grandson Wuji was afraid that Guanyin would continue to entangle, so he persuaded Guanyin,

"Yesterday, didn't Auntie say that you want us all to take care of Grandpa?"

"How can you bear to leave Brother Shimin here alone?"

"And there is no suitable martial arts training ground in the house, how do you let Brother Shimin practice martial arts and practice?"

Guanyin was speechless for a while.

After a pause, Guanyin asked again, "When will Brother Shimin come back?"

This time, Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji were asked again, and the two didn't know how to answer.

------

If the eldest grandson Sheng dies, Guanyin and the eldest grandson Wuji will have a filial piety period of three years

In fact, filial piety is two years and one month.

During the period of filial piety, Guanyin and Gao Qiuniang generally can't even go out of the second door.

The eldest grandson Wuji, as the heir's son-in-law, has to go to the tomb of the eldest grandson Sheng to guard filial piety.

Li Shimin had no suitable reason, and it was inconvenient for him to visit the house.

By the time the period of filial piety expired, Guanyin was almost eleven years old.

Li Shimin and Guanyin, the two have a marriage contract, and when they are older, they have to avoid the suspicion of men and women, and they are not suitable for each other.

Therefore, after Guanyin and Li Shimin separated this time, if they want to sit opposite each other like today, it is estimated that they will have to wait until they get married.

If you tell Guanyin the truth, it will be a little too cruel for her.

------

Li Shimin didn't want to see Guanyin sad, so he smiled and comforted Guanyin.

"I'll go back and practice martial arts well, and now I can draw two stone bows."

"When I can draw the three-stone bow, I'll come over and let the maid see my archery skills."

Guanyin asked, "How long will that take?"

Li Shimin smiled perfunctorily, "Soon, doesn't Ah Wan believe in Ah Brother?"

Guanyin nodded and said, "I believe that Brother Shimin can learn anything quickly."

------

Several people were talking, and Yun Shu led the scholar into the room.

Shuxiang bowed to everyone and said to the eldest grandson Wuji:

"Tang Guogong came to the mansion to visit Lord Lang, and by the way, I took Li Langjun back, and the master mother asked you to go to the front hall of the inner courtyard together."

The eldest grandson Wuji arranged for his subordinates to send Li Shimin's luggage to the outer courtyard first.

Together with Li Shimin, a few people followed the scholar to the front hall of the inner courtyard.
