Chapter III: Funeral

From the time her father closed his eyes to the time he picked up the third, the little girl fainted twice. made the already busy Li family even more busy, and was finally suppressed by her aunt and uncle, and she was no longer allowed to go out of the room. Whelan was unwilling, she wanted to do her best, but she was persuaded by her aunt and uncle in turn, and was threatened that she would not rest well and no one would give her deceased father a banner and a basin, and she would be desolate after her deceased father's death in the future...... Whelan could only cry and lie in the room to eat and sleep and eat pigs, and her aunt sent her a big girl to watch her eat and sleep. Whelan was sad and vowed in her heart that she must exercise her body and resolutely not be a sick man, and she would rather die if she is not free......

On the third day, Whelan participated in the third round, and after completing the ceremony, she officially met her aunt and uncle, her second uncle and second aunt, and her aunt's two cousins. The elders were very gentle, and even when they watched their slightly sturdy uncle talk to her, they lowered their voices. Several of them were in their thirties, about the same age, and they were all dressed in plain clothes. Uncle looked a little gentle, with three long beards, according to her current height, he was a tall and beautiful uncle. My aunt and aunt are all about 1.6 meters by sight, one plump and the other a little thinner, but they are all beautiful aunts. The two cousins have a little stronger skin than their uncle, but they are darker than their uncle. A twelve, nine-year-old, energetic young man, is like an uncle of two trumpets. Whelan admires in his heart, he is worthy of a family of military generals, and the big and small are very strong. Whelan is at peace in her heart, she will not be short or ugly in the future, and she can be as sunny and healthy as them in her aunt's house.

After that, she was locked up in a room to raise pigs, and Whelan was sad and relieved. I also feel emotional, the status of women here is not low, she read the information of Wencha before, and almost never saw her daughter beating the banner and breaking the basin. Wang's mother was busy and hardly had time to come to see her, even if she was there, she couldn't say too much. Wang's mother is her wet nurse, and she probably knows her better than her father.

So Huilan set her eyes on Qingguo, the big girl sent by her aunt to take care of her, and because she was unfamiliar, Huilan knocked on the side and pretended to be a child and asked a lot of questions about the general environment in which she lived. It turned out that in this Great Qin Dynasty, the atmosphere was relatively open, and the status of women was not low, and the difference between them and men was not huge. Daughters also have inheritance rights, but the proportion is lower than that of sons. The only daughter of a family with a title like her, who is still unmarried, can not only break the flag for her deceased father, but also inherit seventy percent of the family's private property. Even if the clan wants to inherit their family in the future, she has to nod her head, no matter whether it is an elder brother or a younger brother or a nephew, she can be half the master of this family, even if she is married.

Whelan almost cried with joy, she thought she was going to wrap her little feet, the door did not go out, and she saw that her family was occupied by the clan and then sold her, a drag oil bottle Cinderella, for a dowry, and she was sad to death (hey, girl, your brain is too big!) She was thinking about whether to hide something valuable and run away!!

I have to say that Miss Whelan is still very adventurous.

Now I have the bottom in my heart, and then look at my height of one meter at most, and completely give up this idea of looking for death. Thinking about her own situation, Huilan continued to talk to Qingguo and inquire about the situation at her aunt's house. If there is no accident, it is better for her to live with her aunt before she gets married.

Although she is small and doesn't go out, she is now the only master of the Li family, Mother Wang, Mother Zhao, housekeeper Uncle Li, steward Cheng Youcai, etc., these loyal servants still take her seriously, and if there are any important things that do not need her to decide, they will let her know. She only put forward two requirements: one is not to neglect the uncles and aunts and several uncles and cousins who live in the guest house, and the other is that the funeral must not make a mistake.

Her spirit is better, and she can go to the mourning hall every day, burn paper and talk or something. Then I went to exchange feelings with the second uncle and aunt who lived in the guest room, asked about the situation of my grandfather's house, cared for my elderly grandfather and the eldest uncle who was sick and could not come, and the eldest aunt who stayed behind to take care of them.

My aunt went home after picking up the three, but she would come over every few days, and she would come every seventh. My aunt has no reservations about Whelan's kindness, and she put down her psychological barriers and slowly got close to her.

On the first seven days, Huilan finally appeared in the mourning hall, burning paper and drinking wine to answer the ceremony, meticulously. has her father's friends, elders and relatives, who have not forgotten to care about her, and Whelan is very grateful. Whether these visitors were generous or for the sake of her aunt and uncle's face, they kept her father's funeral alive, and she remembered it.

Before the end of the sacrifice, a heavyweight guest cameβ€”an angel. It's not the kind with wings, it's the envoys of the Son of Heaven who come to deliver the decree.

This time, except for a few people who delivered the decree and kneeling filial servants, the whole audience bowed down for a long time. Whelan is glad that she is a member of the filial son at the moment, and she has been kneeling all the time. Otherwise, when she heard the holy decree coming, she would probably have to learn to kneel and kowtow in the TV novel. That's social death, social death, she guesses that she won't have to come out to see people in this life.

The middle-aged father-in-law in the lead, with a white face and a thin voice, listened to Whelan as if she heard the sound of long nails scratching glass, she lowered her head and twitched the corners of her eyes.

It's a good thing, first praised her old father who went, and gave her the nickname "Wenchang". Then he was allowed to ask, and Xiangcheng Bo destroyed the coupon and cancelled the knight, and took back the meritorious Tian of the Imperial Uncle's Mansion or something. Then he made her a township king, gave her a house, and silk, jade pendants, pearls, medicinal herbs and so on. In the end, she was officially designated to be raised and taught by the second son and daughter-in-law of the Zhenguo Mansion until she got married.

It seems that His Majesty the Emperor is okay, he has taken back a title and given another one, although the two are definitely not comparable, but finally let her an orphan girl have a little capital to settle down. Whelan decided that if he had the opportunity to write an essay in the future, he would have to write 25,000 words in 25,000 words, and he would definitely write this majesty wisely, domineeringly, and radiantly, shining on the earth.

After the decree was announced, the guests bowed down and bowed three more times, while Huilan learned from the cousin next to him and knelt down and bowed three times, saying that he was thanking God.

This dynasty is good, relatively democratic, and there is no need to kneel in front of the holy decree, and there is no need to say anything long live long live. It is said that every time Whelan sees such a line in a novel on TV, he feels embarrassed. The so-called thousand-year-old king and 80,000-year-old turtle, is the turtle king in the mouth of all the people in the world really not responding?

The middle-aged father-in-law put the scroll of holy decree in Huilan's hand, "The townsman also asks for condolences and take care of your body." His Majesty was saddened to receive the bereavement and sighed. Wenchang Gong read poetry and books, won the second grade, and was a rare talent in martial arts. It's a pity that the day is not a holiday, so that Your Majesty has lost his talents. ”

This father-in-law sang and played, his face was full of sadness, and he was really a horn. is so sad and sad, as if he is the one who lost his family, and what he said is suspected of being a golden mouth. If she doesn't continue to order, how can the first brother and the boss behind her continue to act, it will ruin the show, sin!

Huilan then said with a crying voice, "The little girl's father deeply hates that he has been weak since he was a child, and he can't practice martial arts to protect his family and defend the country, and he often sighs that he is deeply grateful to His Majesty. Finally, Xi Wen achieved a little success, but unfortunately his body was not strong and he couldn't share his worries. Now His Majesty is so sad, it is really the fault of his deceased father. The little girl implores you to advise Your Majesty to take care of your health, that is the blessing of the country! ”

The father-in-law's face was full of emotion, he was really affectionate, "The townsman is so loyal to the monarch at a young age, and he is worthy of the bloodline of the Wenchang prince!" ”

"You've won a prize." Like a child who has been praised, Whelan blushed and lowered his head.

"The Duke of Wenchang is generous, and he does not want to lose a son in order to get a son, and the matter of succession to the heir will be decided by the township monarch in the future." The father-in-law then magnified, and Whelan was stunned. Then her eyes turned red, and her father's love for his daughter really touched her. This is because he is afraid that the clan will bully her by means of succession, and the time limit will be delayed until she gets married, and the initiative will be in her hands. In the future, if they have ideas, not only can they not force her, but they also have to please her.

Huilan was full of emotion, and her family affection was bursting, and her father-in-law said that after the Qingming Festival, the imperial court would send someone to take over the mansion or something, and she just nodded and agreed, saying some nonsense such as I know, thank you, etc.

Finally sent away the angels and the guests, Whelan was almost paralyzed from exhaustion, and was sent back to the room by her aunt, and fell asleep without even eating.
