Chapter 515: Kneeling Hall

"The general's day mourns, the prince mourns."

When they heard this, Gu Shaoyu and Shang Zhiping both stood up and said to the man.

"Thank you."

Coming and going, this is the twelfth group of people today, and neither of them is a person who is good at showing feelings, so apart from these two words, nothing else can be said.

Therefore, the condolences can only sigh, turn around and leave, and when they left, they met Du Jingyi, she was also dressed in filial piety clothes, and her face was not very good-looking.

"Madame's Day condolences."

"Thank you adults for this trip, my father-in-law will be happy if he has a spirit in the sky."

"Madam is polite, we used to have a friendship with Grandpa Guo, so he is gone, and it is natural for us to give it a ride, I see that your face is not good, filial piety is filial piety, or take care of your body more."

"Thank you for your concern."

Compared with the two uncles and nephews kneeling inside, Du Jingyi can greet each other a lot, so the adults who may have been a little unhappy just now also left the Guogong Mansion with much understanding at this moment.

When the decency is exhausted, they will not follow the foolish fun.

Du Jingyi sent these away, and ushered in others, and the cycle went on and on, and there was an endless stream.

Compared with her long-sleeved dance, sister-in-law Liu is much more wooden.

followed by kneeling behind Ping'er, the whole person was also in a trance, she was the most sincere crying among the several people, and naturally even her eyes were red and swollen.

Compared with others, when she married into the Guogong Mansion, it was when her mother-in-law and husband were very proud, so she also received a lot of care from her father-in-law.

With her identity, she has never been wronged by her father-in-law, and many times she will send a lot of good things for the reason that she is far away from home, so at that time she really respected her father-in-law and mother-in-law.

But the good times didn't last long, only a few years later, the husband and mother-in-law died one after another, causing their Dongyuan to almost carve a vein, at that time she also gritted her teeth and hated this father-in-law, hated him for believing Mrs. Wei, although he had never done anything to practice Dongyuan, but his inaction was the biggest problem.

However, now that he is gone, she has also thought about this problem repeatedly in the short period of time she has taken care of him in his last years.

In the final analysis, a person like his father-in-law, this kind of temperament, is a person who can't give high hopes, why do you still put all the blame on him, and he has suffered enough "retribution" in the past few years, so sister-in-law Liu, the tears at this moment are true, the pain is real, and the nostalgia is also true.

Du Jingyi knelt beside her, seeing how sad she was crying, she also handed over the handkerchief and comforted her.

"Sister-in-law, don't be too sad, now that the family is supported by you and Ping'er, if you are too sad, won't Ping'er have to fight alone? Therefore, the dead have passed away, and the living still have to continue to live. ”

The sister-in-law nodded, she naturally understood this truth, but she just couldn't help it.

Instead, Ping'er turned around, patted her mother's shoulder, and comforted.

"If the mother feels unwell, go back and rest for a while, here is the son and the sixth uncle watching, it will be fine."

Hearing this, sister-in-law Liu's heart warmed.

The son who has protected him all his life has finally grown up, looking at his increasingly resolute body and mature face, the sister-in-law is also proud of her son, and then said.

"I'll go to the side room and wash my face, and I'll come back later."

Ping'er nodded, and Gu Shaoyu next to him also interjected.

"Sister-in-law, let Madame accompany you, her body is not much tough, so she doesn't have to kneel here every day."

Strong as Gu Shaoyu, young as Ping'er, I am afraid that I will lose my skin if I kneel for a month, and Gu Shaoyu doesn't want his wife and sister-in-law to suffer this time, last time for his grandmother's funeral, the two of them were also tossed enough.

Gu Shaoyu remembered that when he came back and met his wife, his tentacles were all bones, and there was no flesh at all.

Originally, she was very thin, but if she tossed three times or twice, she was afraid that she would not be able to endure it.

The sister-in-law listened to his words, of course she understood what it meant, and then took Du Jingyi's hand and said.

"Help me through, I'm crying so much that I can't see the road clearly."

Du Jingyi naturally knew what everyone meant, so after glancing at his own general and Heping'er worriedly, he still got up and helped his sister-in-law to rest.

In the mourning hall, the uncle and nephew still knelt upright, waiting for the people who came to mourn to give them a return gift.

In the side room, the sister-in-law cleaned her face, and then sat down tiredly and sighed twice.

"I don't know what's wrong? Tears just can't be stopped, even if my father-in-law made many mistakes in the past few years, now they are all dust, and the soil is back to the earth, and when he leaves, there are really only our orphans and widows left in the Guogong Mansion, I always feel that I ...... I always feel a little lonely. ”

Her words fell into Du Jingyi's ears, and she was also very embarrassed.

Speaking of which, she has been married into the Guogong Mansion for so many years, and she has really had less dealings with this father-in-law, and then moved to the General's Mansion, and went south to Jinling City for many days, and she didn't get along very much.

Therefore, sad is sad, but she doesn't have the same thoughts as her sister-in-law, so she can only say comfortingly.

"What does sister-in-law say, although you and I live separately, we will always be blood relatives with broken bones and tendons, besides, after the national funeral and family funeral are completed, Ping'er will always have to do happy events, and when the time comes, the newcomer will marry in and the child will be born, so it will naturally be able to offset the hollowness of this huge mansion."

"That's right, it's good that the sixth brother is quick to take the initiative in this matter, otherwise, he may not be able to wait for the eldest lady of the Li family."

"How?"

Du Jingyi was a little puzzled by this, how did he mention this in a good manner?

"After getting married, I have a lot of contacts with Mrs. Li, and I will send some things to each other from time to time, and I asked Ou's mother to run in person that day, and I heard that the second lady is already preparing to enter the palace draft."

"So fast?"

"Originally, the day of the draft was set in the spring, when everything was in full bloom and recovering, and now it is almost summer, so it is natural to prepare, I heard that it will be done in early autumn, when the emperor is also a hundred days, and the period of filial piety between the royal family and us is different."

The national funeral, for the people and officials, is to serve for a year.

During this period, there is no drinking and merry, no showmanship, and no happy events, so every family follows it. (End of chapter)
