Chapter 36: The ancestral grave is not entered
The family got up, and Wu Dalang's wife took a five or six-year-old boy back two steps forward: "Quick, quickly kowtow to Miss Xiaoran a few more times." ”
The little boy was a little recognized, but at the urging of his mother, he still took a few steps forward, knelt down and kowtowed to Chu Xiaoran three more times.
The child is festive and very well-behaved, Chu Xiaoran likes it at a glance, and can't help beckoning to the child and motioning him to come closer.
"What's your name?"
"Back to my sister, my name is Wu Qishen."
Wu Qishen, combined with yesterday's child's birthday, is a good name.
In Wu Dalang's generation, many people do not have proper names, and when they come to their next generation, they realize this problem, no matter how poor they are, they will also give their children a good name.
The name is good, and the small mouth is sweeter.
Steward Wu's family stood aside and didn't leave immediately, looking at Chu Xiaoran and stopping.
In the end, it was Steward Wu who stood up and plucked up the courage to say to Chu Xiaoran: "Miss Xiaoran, can the villain be cheeky and ask you for something?" ”
"If you have anything to say, you just say it." In the past ten days in Zhuangzi, Wu has been in charge of things, and Chu Xiaoran is still quite satisfied.
The family who had just stood up knelt down again: "Miss Xiaoran, can you take in Xiao'er and their family of four?" ”
Thinking of history, in less than two years, the Northern Song Dynasty was completely occupied by the Jin, and I didn't go to Jiulong Town in the past few days, and I knew that Jiulong Town would only become more and more chaotic in the future.
Last time I went to Jiulong Town to buy a compass, I met two golden people who robbed Zhang Qilang's body in disguise.
Since Steward Wu opened this mouth, Chu Xiaoran decided to leave Wu Dalang's family behind, and it just so happened that Zhuangzi also needed manpower, and Wu Dalang's family knew the roots, which was extremely suitable, and it was the best of both worlds.
Wu Dalang led his wife and children and thanked him a thousand times.
Chu Xiaoran smiled and waved his hand, and asked for Wu Dalang, his wife, and the eight characters of the infant child, naturally to see if there was anything to restrain her and Chu's mother.
If so, she would have to make other arrangements.
After looking at the three of them, there was no problem, and Chu Xiaoran was even more satisfied.
Especially Wu Dalang's eight characters, it turned out to be beneficial to the main family, thinking that he would move the grave of Chu's father tomorrow, so he said to Wu Dalang: "Wu Dalang, there is something I want to discuss with you." ”
"Miss Xiaoran, if you have anything to say, what do you say that you don't negotiate, isn't this a villain!"
Wu Dalang was one hundred and twenty grateful to Chu Xiaoran, not to mention one thing, it was a hundred things, and he agreed without hesitation.
"This matter still needs your own consent, tomorrow I will move my father's grave, I just saw your eight characters, it is beneficial to move tomorrow's grave, so I think you can go with us tomorrow?"
Wu Qishen only came back last night, a five or six-year-old child, Chu Xiaoran originally wanted to let Wu Dalang's family rest for a few days to relieve their emotions.
In addition, some people will feel unlucky when moving the grave, and they are not willing to go if they are not the people who eat this bowl of rice.
Therefore, she told this matter and asked for Wu Dalang's consent, if Wu Dalang was taboo, she didn't want to force him.
The Chu family will move the grave tomorrow, and his father has already told him about this.
Even if Miss Xiao Ran doesn't open this, he will go with him to help tomorrow, but what he didn't expect was that Miss Xiao Ran would discuss with him.
"Miss Xiaoran, the villain is now a member of the Chu family, how can I not go to such a big event as the relocation of the main family's grave."
Chu Xiaoran didn't expect that Wu Dalang would agree without thinking about it, and Wu Dalang's wife didn't show any impatience, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart: "Steward Wu, where they live, you look at the arrangement!" ”
The steward's family left the courtyard with a smile on their faces.
Chu Xiaoran entered the room and saw the thank you gift from Steward Wu on the table.
A small and most ordinary box, when opened it was a silver ticket of fifty taels, as well as two silver ingots of ten taels, and a jade bracelet next to it, which looked extremely ordinary, but for Steward Wu and his family, it should be the best thing they could come up with.
This thank-you gift is very valuable.
Chu Xiaoran stretched out his hand, only took a silver ingot of ten taels on it, and covered the box to summon Zhou Ting.
"Send this box to Steward Wu, and say that the silver for divination must be collected, and the price of ten taels of silver is enough. As for the thank-you gift, it was considered a meeting gift for my two children. ”
Zhou Ting nodded, took the box and went to find Steward Wu.
I don't know what Zhou Ting said to Steward Wu, but he didn't send the box over.
The next day was April 28.
Chu Xiaoran set a day for Chu's father to move the grave, Chu Xiaoran got up before dawn, and after practicing for half an hour, the morning glow appeared on the horizon.
Today's situation is special, Lu's mother got up early to make breakfast, Chu Xiaoran and Chu's mother had breakfast, and when they came to the front of the hall, Steward Wu and others had all gathered in the courtyard, holding the things used to move the grave in their hands.
There is an ox cart in the Zhuangzi, and Steward Wu went to the Qin family's Zhuangzi yesterday to borrow two more cars, and Qin's mother knew that today was to move the grave of Chu's father, and also sent two strong and healthy servants to help.
Very good, very good.
A big project like moving a grave requires a few strong guys.
However, before they set off, Chu Xiaoran still asked for their birthdays to see if they would be in harmony with Chu's father, or if there was something unfavorable to them today.
Looking at it simply, there is no restraint between the eight characters of these people, that is, one of them was born in the month of Youyue, and it is not appropriate to touch the coffin today.
Chu Xiaoran had already calculated the auspicious time when Chu's father moved the coffin, and it could be done at three o'clock, before sunset, so it was not a big problem.
Chu Xiaoran helped Chu's mother to get into the first ox cart first, Yun Xiang and Liuxiang sat beside them, and the last thing was today's food, and Zhou Ting was in front of the car.
Steward Wu drove the second ox cart, on which sat the two little servants who came to help from the Qin family Zhuangzi, and the farmers with good relations who had a good relationship with Steward Wu two days in advance.
The last ox cart was driven by Wu Dalang, and it was full of tools needed for this grave relocation.
Also stopping at the place where the ox cart was tied last time, the group took their tools and began to walk towards Chu's father's grave.
After walking for about half an hour, a farmer whispered: "The Chu family is also a big family, how could they choose to be buried here, the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and it is difficult to pay tribute to them in ordinary times." ”
Look, look, a farmer knows that it is not appropriate to be buried in this deep mountain and old forest, and the old lady Chu has been an official for so many years, don't you know?
It is clear that he sees that Father Chu is a concubine, and he hates it from the bottom of his heart, and if he doesn't give it to the ancestral grave, how far will he throw it.
I don't know why Old Lady Chu is so tough, but Mother Chu is also the daughter of Taifu, if it weren't for Mother Chu using dowry to pave the way for his career for so many years, how could he go so smoothly.
Now that Chu's mother's dowry has been squandered, she dislikes their second room so much.
