After listening to the question, Ripple brewed a little, and said with red eyes and a choked voice:

"Thank you for your concern, the housekeeper has invited a doctor and prescribed medicine for me, and my parents' funeral has not been taken care of, and I dare not let myself fall."

"Poor child, you have suffered, the robbers who killed that day were really vicious, they asked for money, how could they have killed people."

The fifth old lady stomped on the crutches in her hand and said angrily.

Ripple turned his head sideways, wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and turned his head before he spoke:

"Ripple knows that he is young, he has never held a funeral, and he is afraid that the etiquette will not be careful, so that his parents will be unstable, so he specially invited two clan elders to come over to preside over this matter, and he wants to let his parents last go on this journey."

"If you don't say this, we will also help, Xiuxiu is also a more promising child in the clan, and you have been trained so well, you are already a child at a young age, if it weren't for this, you would be a talent this year."

The third lady also said with a little regret.

Ripple said with slightly red eyes:

"The two clan elders, Ripples want to keep filial piety for their parents for six years, and they will not participate in this year's township test, and they will talk about it after the filial piety period."

The two clan elders glanced at each other, and the fifth old lady said earnestly:

"Ripples, everyone knows that you are filial, and it is natural to keep filial piety for your parents, but six years is a bit long, not to mention delaying your education, it will also affect your marriage."

Ripple raised his head when he heard this, and said with some puzzlement:

"Patriarch, both of my parents died, and one person's three-year filial piety period is exactly six years."

"You're not wrong to say that, but since they died at the same time, it's enough to keep it for three years."

The third lady patiently explained.

"That being the case, then I listen to the two clan elders, this funeral of the parents, and the two elders are still bothered to operate, and the ripples thank the clan for taking care of the little girl in advance."

After Ripple finished speaking, he stood up and saluted again, and then continued:

"After the funeral of my parents, I would like to give 30 acres of fertile land to the clan, as a sacrificial field in the clan, which is considered to fulfill my mother's wish and thank the clan for protecting me."

When the two clan elders heard this, they glanced at each other, and they both saw a surprise in each other's eyes, which was really an unexpected gain, although they were happy, the two of them also suppressed the look of surprise, and just nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Ripples have a heart, don't worry! You are a member of my Su clan, and the Su clan is your backer wherever you go. ”

After Ripple listened, he responded obediently, and at this time, the noise in the front yard became louder and louder, interrupting the three people in the hall.

"What's going on?"

The fifth old lady asked with a frown.

"The elder of the five clans, I asked the housekeeper to find a tooth wife and sold some subordinates."

Ripple said with a pale face.

"Ripples, but the next man rushed into you?"

The third lady asked directly.

"It's also that my body is not angry, and when I was shocked to hear the bad news, I vomited blood and fainted, so that my aunt took advantage of the loophole and actually became the master of my Su Mansion, commanding my subordinates to separate the Su housekeepers, waiters and scholars around me, and wanted to pinch me.

He shamelessly conspired with his son at my bedside, wanting his unworthy son to be alone with me, spreading some gossip, and then marrying someone into the door while he was in the heat of filial piety to achieve good deeds."

"How can this be true? This is Su Mansion, not her Tang family, and it is not her turn to call the shots! ”

The fifth old lady had a hot temper and immediately scolded her.

"Humph! She is not looking at Ripples as an orphan girl, there are no elders in the family, and she is a child, marrying her son into the door, she is a righteous elder, she can suppress Ripples, Ripples will swallow this breath even if it is for her own reputation, and she is quite shrewd in her calculations. ”

The third lady saw it more clearly, and a few words pierced Tang Huirong's mind.

"What the elders of the three clans said is, so I invited two clan elders to come to the house, two of them are the elders of my Su clan, who are justified and have high seniority, there are two of them, and my aunt can't turn out any flowers."

Ripple lowered his eyes and said.

"Don't worry, we will come forward for the rest, you just have to be a filial daughter."

The fifth old lady waved her hand.

"Youlao and the two clans are old, so Ripples will go to the front hall to keep a watch."

Ripple got up and saluted, and then went to the front hall with the support of Ziyan and An He.

By the time the three of them went to the front hall, Ya Po had already kidnapped all the subordinates who were eating inside and out, and for a while, the subordinates of the entire Su Mansion were silent, and they didn't dare to come out, so they just bowed their heads and did things.

Ripple glanced at it and felt that the effect of this trick was not bad.

Steward Su also walked over with an ebony box in his hand, bowed down and said:

"Miss, this time I sold eight people, all of whom were dispatched by Mrs. Tang, and sold a total of one hundred taels of silver, and the silver tickets and the deed of sale of the rest of the people are here."

"Well done."

Ripple nodded, and let An He take the box.

"Housekeeper, arrange the residence of the two clan elders, next to my aunt's residence, you go to consult the two clan elders more about the funeral, every expense is well booked, the Su family's money is not blown by the wind, you can save some, filial piety is to look at the front, not the aftermath The more grand the more filial piety is.

When my mother was alive, she also taught me to be in charge of the family, but at that time, both parents were complete and they were both young, and I was bent on the scientific examination without burden, only thinking about the glorious lintel.

Now that my family has suffered this catastrophe, I have to keep filial piety for my parents, and I must slowly learn to be in charge of the house, and I hope that the housekeeper Su will cooperate with me more. ”

Ripple expressed his meaning very clearly, and I believe that Steward Su also understood, and immediately bowed and saluted:

"Don't worry, Miss, I'll definitely take care of it."

Ripple nodded with satisfaction and went to the mourning hall.

There are two coffins side by side on the mourning hall, the coffin lid has not been closed, so that relatives and friends can come to mourn, Ziyan put a futon on the side of the mourning hall with a very eye-catching eye, and then knelt down with the ripples, and silently withdrew from the mourning hall, An He brought a brazier and silently accompanied his young lady to burn paper.

After Steward Su opened the door of the house, the people who came to the door to offer condolences came one after another, including nearby neighbors, and people who were good friends with Su Xiuxiu, even Ripple's classmates also came, and they all privately looked for Ripple and asked her about this year's township exam.

"Sister Lianyi, the teacher said that if you take the township exam this time, the chances of being admitted to Xiucai are very high."

A girl in a purple-pink robe said in a low voice.

"Sister Yueqin is right, if you miss it this time, you will have to wait another three years."

Another girl named Yue Liuli also spoke, her age was the oldest of the several, and she was very old.

"There was this change in the family, my heart is also in a mess, plus I vomited blood after hearing the bad news before, and now my body is also a little weak, so I can only give up this opportunity, but I also wish you all a smooth township exam and an early success in the show."

Ripple still declined the kindness of his classmates.

"That's it, you don't have to be too sad, take care of your body, the township test is not the only one, there will be a chance in the future.

Also, watch out for those ambitious relatives of yours. ”

Yue Liuli reminded in a low voice.
