Chapter 031: Second Master Wang Travels West
When he got up the next morning, Haizi's head was still chaotic, and he didn't have the energy to do anything. From time to time, I went out of the house to look at the moon gate, as if I was waiting for something. I slept in a daze at noon, and then I regained some energy.
After a while, Yun Erye beckoned Haizi over and asked Haizi to hug a large bundle of Huangxian paper, that is, the dead man's burning paper, Yun Erye asked Haizi to go to Wang Erye's house with him, saying that Wang Erye had passed away.
Haizi followed behind Second Master Yun, thinking that this is really fast, I just heard that I was seriously ill yesterday, and I left today, it's a pity! Second Master Wang is also a good person, but most of the people in the village praise him for his integrity and ability to dissociate himself from his bearded son.
Yun Er Ye is the richest man in this village, and whoever has a big or small affair will of course be present, and Yun Er Ye's presence is also a kind of glory for the small families in the village.
No, before Second Master Yun entered the hospital, Second Master Wang's children and grandchildren had already come forward to kowtow, report the funeral, and take the paper held in Haizi's hand.
Second Master Yun walked to the front of the spiritual shed and bowed deeply three times to express his condolences to Second Master Wang. Haizi also stepped forward and knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times at the signal of Second Master Yun.
The Wang family also tied a small piece of filial piety cloth to Haizi's left arm, and the dead in the tunzi had this rule, and the younger generations who came to mourn were like this.
"If you need any help from home, just say. Did you invite a big customer? Mr. Yin and Yang please? Did you send a letter to the big boss? The squeak of what is missing, red and white things are not done by one family.
To mourn by the way, think about the funeral of the second master of the king more thoroughly, our family cannot be left behind, and the funeral must be done decently. Second Master Wang's life is not easy, let's send him off well, so that Second Master Wang can go to heaven with peace of mind! ”
Second Master Yun said so many words in one breath, and his instructions were also very considerate and thoughtful, so that Second Master Wang's family was naturally very grateful.
"Everything is up to Second Master Yun. Zhike and Mr. Yin Yang are also invited, and they are discussing in the room, and I have sent someone to tell the eldest brother, and I will be able to come back tomorrow, and some relatives and friends have also gone to report the funeral. Second Master Yun, please come into the house and help us get an idea. ”
As Second Master Wang's son spoke, he let Second Master Yun into the house and sat down. Second Master Wang's home is not very spacious, and with so many people coming to the house, it naturally seems more crowded, but on the whole it is still much better than ordinary small households.
After Yun Erye entered the house, Da Zhike and Mr. Yin Yang gave a detailed introduction to Yun Erye what they were doing and what they planned to do. Second Master Yun felt that the arrangement was very thoughtful, and he also praised the big branch guest and Mr. Yin and Yang.
"Very good, very good, think about it in detail, try to be thorough, don't fall behind. I wonder where the coffin is going to be buried? ”
"This will have to wait for the return of the king to make a final decision. Of course, the best feng shui in our tunzi is to turn east to Shanzi, which is a treasure land. ”
Mr. Yin Yang said casually without thinking, but he didn't expect that Second Master Yun immediately replied to Mr. Yin Yang's words.
"That's not going to work! Are you a pig's brain? It's a treasure lot, but it's too close to my ancestral grave, it's not okay!
Most of our tunzi are buried in the southwest of Dianzi, and the place is also very good, full of feng shui, you can choose a hearty cemetery there. ”
"That's, that's. That's what I said, Second Master Yun, don't take it to heart. Mr. Yin Yang saw that Second Master Yun was a little unhappy, so he hurriedly explained.
"Alright, I'm leaving. The funeral arrangements of Second Master Wang are very clear, if there is anything that needs my help, tell me again, and I will come back tomorrow. ”
Second Master Yun stood up, stuffed more than a dozen silver dollars into Second Master Wang's son, and led Haizi out of Wang's house.
The son of the second master of the king and the people who came to help and mourn sent the second master of Yun out of the courtyard, and the male and female relatives of the Wang family who were rushing to report to the temple came back, and the sound of mourning accompanied by the mourning of the horn made the village shrouded in a desolate atmosphere.
"Fence the animals early, plug the doors, and don't let the animals run out at night. The gate should be closed early and locked, so that no one can leave the compound at night.
Haizi, you and Jiuzi take a few more trips to the front and back yards, and the moon gate doesn't need to be locked today, let go of the dogs. Tell a few guys in the front yard that they will take turns to keep vigil on the big wall tonight, and they will all work hard. ”
Second Master Yun instructed Haizi to do these things. Zhao Ye was not at home, Haizi became the microphone of Yun Erye, fortunately, at this time, most of the long-term workers went home, and the Yun family did not have many things to arrange.
Haizi followed Second Master Yun's instructions and ran twice in the front and back yards. After carefully inspecting the pigsty, sheepfold, cattle pen, and stable, when everything was ready, the gate was locked early, and everyone took turns to keep vigil.
In the past, these jobs were arranged by Zhao Ye, but now that Zhao Ye is not at home, Hai Zi will do it according to Yun Erye's arrangement, as if there are some young owners, of course, this is what the guys who stayed behind think so, because Hai Zi is also very handy in arranging these things.
Haizi finished filling the horse with hay, and it was time for Monroe to come yesterday. The black wolf still chased him forward and backward, like a tail. Haizi walked into the grass hut, wondering if Monroe should come back today, right? Somehow, Hai Zite wanted to meet Monroe.
Back in the house, Haizi lit the lamp. Monroe really didn't come to this hut, and what he fantasized about didn't happen. Haizi cleaned the kang, spread the quilt and baked it, and then lit a fire to burn the kang. Haizi thought to himself, burn more, after the first half of the night's vigil, it will be warmer to come back and sleep.
Under normal circumstances, the Yun family compound has to send people to keep vigil, and the personnel are arranged in the southwest and northeast corners of the compound. There are only two rooms in the Yunjia compound, and the front yard is much larger than the back yard, which is the main place for the Yun family workers to live and move.
The main house in the front yard is counted from the east side, and in order is the large living room, the small living room, the dining room for eating, the kitchen, and the warehouse. There are moon gates on both sides of the main house leading to the backyard, but the moon gate on the west side is not opened from time to time, and it is only used for storing and selling grain.
On the east side of the front yard, from north to south, is the house where Haizi and Master lived, and the hay shed for feeding the horses, and indeed these were all one house. Then there is the horse pen, and further south is the thatched house.
The row of houses to the west had two mills, as well as temporary housing for the men for a long time, and a larger storehouse.
And the backyard is the residence of the Yun family, there are nine rooms in a row, and it is a magnificent brick house, which is much stronger and more magnificent than the adobe house in the front yard.
On the east and west sides of the backyard are huge granaries. The open space in front of the house is planted with seasonal vegetables in summer, and behind it are various northern fruit trees planted by the Yun family.
The most magnificent of all is the wall of the compound that encloses them, which is rammed with adobe earth, and is five feet wide at the bottom, and nearly three feet wide at the top, and one and a half feet high.
There are also watchtowers built at the four feet of the big wall, which is convenient for observation and defense, and the entire compound wall is smeared with alkaline earth mud tightly, and the rain can't wash it away.
The east-side gate of the front is also made of blue bricks, which is tall and magnificent. In front of the compound is a road for cars, horses, and people to enter and exit, and near the avenue is a pond, and further ahead is the huge yard of the Yun family, and the Yun Sanye family used to live in the yard.
Not far to the east of the gate is a well, and the water is very strong all year round. To the east, there is the cowshed and the sheepfold, connecting the yard and the compound.
The Yun family has all the livestock and poultry raised by the farm, and the chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs are all kept in the yard, and now they are managed by the Silly Jiuzi family.
Since today is the day of the death of Second Master Wang, the entire Tunzi is shrouded in nameless sadness, and the Yun family compound also looks very solemn, Haizi feels a little desolate in his heart.
