Every time there is a mourner, Xianghai will continue to kneel and kowtow to burn incense with the comer, in order to express gratitude, Zhao Dahe Fusheng as the deceased's family, friends in front of him, also to follow, Xianghai in the center, Zhao Da and Fusheng one on the left and one on the right, kowtow to the point that they can't get up. When it was more quiet in the middle of the night, and there was no longer mourning, Xianghai remembered his half-brother Ma Chenlong, and he didn't know where he was now, so he quietly asked Fusheng: "The massacre on Baoshan Road killed hundreds of people, and even in the concession area. I heard that Ma Chenlong was injured again, I really don't know if his body is made of flesh, whether he was injured on Baoshan Road? Fusheng said: "Ma Chenlong's new injury was not caused on Baoshan Road, because he was at my house that night. Xianghai asked in surprise: "Ma Chenlong was at your house that night?" They haven't left Shanghai yet? Fusheng said: "Yes, he didn't have time to leave, Shanghai is already under martial law." His arm is believed to have been wounded during the attack on Gaochang Temple. Fusheng swallowed, and seemed to have concerns about muttering in the mourning hall. Xianghai said: "Now that the bad habit of mourning is abolished, there is no need to abide by the taboo of non-funeral affairs, the important thing is to be pious in the heart, but it is okay to say it." Besides, if we speak like this, our father will surely hear it in heaven. ”

Fusheng told Xianghai at this time: "The next day, when Ma Chenlong was about to leave, he heard sirens and gunshots on the street, and the gendarmes were arresting people everywhere, and he couldn't get out, so I hid him in the attic for three days and persuaded him to leave after the limelight passed." I asked him, where is he going with such a tight wind? He said that he wanted to go to the south to get guns, and only when he had his own guns could he have his own political power. I told him that Master Li persuaded him not to make a revolution anymore, and to go home to help the Li family take care of the school, and teaching and educating people can also save the country and save the people. The color of this world is chaotic and dark and can't be changed for a while, and with his own strength, there is no doubt that he can't stop the car with his mantis arm and can't do anything he can't do. However, he said that the color of the world will always change, and with just an exhilarating cry, the people will wake up and the world will be red in the future. I understood that this parting, the hope of goodbye was slim, and I couldn't help but feel a little sad. Instead, he came to comfort me and said that the long night would come to an end and the revolution would succeed. I could not see frustration and sorrow in him, only fortitude and bravery in the face of danger, he was born a revolutionary, even in the attic he was not at peace, always asking me to inquire about this and that. He asked me not to tell you, he went to the south to get guns, and he was afraid that the old man would find out and worry about him. He thanked Lord Ling Zun for recognizing the "enemy's" child without knowing that he was his own son, which was really great. When Xianghai heard this, his eyes turned red unconsciously, and he said: "Now that he has just left, my father went to Huangquan Road, and he didn't even look at it on his deathbed. ”

At this time, Zhao Da asked Fusheng: "Does Ma Chenlong know how her biological mother died?" ”

Fusheng said: "Ma Chenlong said that he remembered that his biological mother was tortured and killed by the robbers of Qingfeng Village, and he missed his mother and grandmother very much, and he shed tears as he spoke. It was the first time I saw such a tall man crying, and I also shed tears. "Did he finally leave Shanghai?" Maybe it's a hypothesis that he wants to leave Shanghai, but in fact, he is still hiding in Shanghai? Xianghai asked. He still has illusions in his heart, hoping that Ma Chenlong has not left Shanghai.

Fusheng said: "No, Ma Chenlong was sent away by his father, and sometimes Ma Chenlong said that he left late, how could he still be in Shanghai." ”

Xianghai heard Fusheng say that Ma Chenlong was sent away by Boss Shen, and he was quite surprised, he asked strangely: "Ma Chenlong was sent away by your father?" Didn't your father object to your contact with Ma Chenlong? ”

"When Ma Chenlong was leaving, my father happened to come back to Huayi Street, and my father usually reprimanded me a lot, asking me to stay away from Ma Chenlong. Sent Ma Chenlong back, but my father scolded me to death, and strictly ordered me not to talk nonsense, not to participate in various gatherings, not even to participate in any rescue operations, saying that the lessons of the Shen family are still less? This incident touched me a lot, for my safety, my father blocked me behind me, willing to take the risk himself, really pity the hearts of parents in the world. But what have we done for our parents? What do we give our parents but to make them fearful? ”

It was already early in the morning, and people came to mourn one after another, and the drummers who kept vigil woke up and blew suona and beat gongs and drums, and they immediately got up and went to kowtow and incense in front of the mourning hall.

Three days later, as soon as the time came, the coffin was covered with a blanket, a big rooster was tied to the blanket, and some rice was sprinkled, Xianghai and Zhao Da were in front, and ten young men in the village were invited to support the coffin in the back. and buried the lake green silk silk on the side, and landed a mound of Li Xiaoniang's clothes.

Xianghai decided to stay at home to make up for his lack of care for his parents, but the house in the city had just been built and could not be taken care of by no one, so he discussed with his mother. The mother had just lost her husband and also needed her son to accompany her, so she said to Xianghai: "A Mao tailor is an honest man, married a lady and still lives in a thatched house, A Mao Lady is arrogant, is a good character, you can ask A Mao Lady to go to the city to help, and when the situation is peaceful in the future, please ask A Mao to go to the city to help." "Mrs. Li thought that since Ah Mao and her mother got married, she didn't let her live a comfortable life, and it was a good thing for them to live in the city. Xianghai very agreed: "Mother is right, but the Amao family has always been a woman to sing with the husband, everything is decided by the lady, I don't know if the Amao lady is willing to leave Amao and go to the city alone, this matter must be bothered to the mother and the Amao lady." Now that I have my own street house, I want to move the wine store and car dealership to 'one street and two squares', so as to save rent. Mrs. Li said, "This is very good, when your father was alive, he always asked us to be diligent and thrifty, and it is equally important to open up money and reduce expenditure." Regarding the matter of Wu Nu's side, I asked Wu Ma to go and tell Ah Mao that she would also invite Wu Ma to live in the city in the future, and her daughter would not refuse. Xianghai said: "Ah Mao Niangzi and Wu Ma have always been at odds, or bother my mother to go and tell her in person, so that Ah Mao Niangzi rejected Wu Ma, and my mother will be embarrassed to say it again." Mrs. Li thought about it, so she personally visited Ah Mao's tailor shop, and said to Ah Mao like this, Ah Mao said that as long as the lady was willing to go, he would have no problem in Guangfu alone. Ah Mao called the lady, and Mrs. Li said to her: "Xianghai has built a house in the city, and now he can't go back to Dai Xiao in Guangfu, so I want you to go to the city to take care of it, and assign you to live in Qianfang No. 2, without charging any rent and leasing it by you, please take care of the two alleys, and in the future, the wine store and the car dealer will move over, and you will also invite your mother to live in the city together, do you think it's good?" "Ah Mao's lady saw that Mrs. Li had a trust, so it was difficult to shirk. Ah Mao thanked him for his kindness and let the lady move to the city first, and then he came. A Mao Niangzi is a capable woman, who came to Shanghai alone on the Shen family sand boat, and devoted herself to taking care of the city's "one street and two squares" for Xianghai.

The days soon came to the seventh day of the deceased father's head, and the Houde Mansion was busy making seven for the undead. According to custom, on the seventh day after death, the soul will go home, so this first seven days have become more embarrassing days, the living miss the deceased, hope that the deceased will go home, and are afraid that it will not come back, can not be reincarnated, so the first seven rules are the most. Mrs. Li instructed Wu's mother to prepare a meal early, set up an altar in the mourning hall, take care of Xianghai not to move all day long, and go to the bed to cover his head and lie down before his father's soul goes home, if his father's soul sees his family, it will make it remember, and it will affect him to be reincarnated as a human being. Xianghai just took this opportunity to sleep on the bed with his head covered, let the "father" eat and leave, and then cry and burn seven. Two to six or seven, all the same.
