Chapter 2304 (1 update)
The little brothers of the Chen family look alike. Even if Chen Fengnian and Chen Zhaonian are not traveling together, Brother Zhou and others will know that they are Chen Kang's grandsons when they see Chen Ruinian and Chen Xuenian. The four brothers each carry a backpack
. Chen Fengnian took him directly to the Le family. Chen Ruinian and Chen Xuenian did not see the cousins of the Le family, so they threw down their backpacks with their brothers and went to the mourning hall to offer incense to their cousin. The four brothers offered incense to their cousin and burned paper money
. The cousin and younger cousin at the reception banquet were helped up, and then they put on their mourning clothes. After wearing the mourning clothes, they went to
see their cousins and aunts. The four little brothers of the Chen family recognized their relatives, then took a cigarette from their backpacks and followed their father and The uncle went to greet the elders who were helping his cousin's house.
After greeting the guests, Chen Ruinian and Chen Xuenian had time to formally talk to their little cousin. The two brothers were both over 1.79 meters tall. They were quite tall and had to look down on their little cousin. Look
. The two brothers stretched out their hands to rub the soft little cousin, who was small in stature and had slightly swollen eye circles from crying. "
Sister!" they shouted kindly and sincerely.
"First cousin, second cousin." From my uncle's house. The cousins were willing to pay filial piety to their aunt, and Leyun also sincerely agreed with the two cousins.
"Yeah, yeah." Chen Ruinian and Chen Xuenian nodded their heads attentively, then rubbed the little cousin's dark head a few times before picking up the little cousin. Leshan.
Leshan followed around the dojo for a day. He felt a little dizzy. He called his cousin obediently and had no strength, so he let his cousin hold him.
The little cousin was well-behaved and cute. Chen Ruinian and Chen Xuenian fought to hold him. Chen Zhaonian and Chen Fengnian continued to hold him. You can't even touch the edges.
Because there are no outsiders, Le's family has dinner relatively early. Dinner is served at six o'clock. The people who help with the work have dinner, tidy up their belongings, sit down and go home to sleep at nine o'clock. The masters
also Accommodation at Lejia was arranged in two guest rooms on the first floor of the south building. Chen Xin and Chen Jie lived in the other guest room. Chen Kang still lived in the previous room, and Zhou Wei lived in Xiao Lele's bedroom on the first floor. The four of the Chen
family The little brother lives on the second floor of the south building, two to a room. The handsome guy Lan San still lives in the east-facing guest room on the north side of the second floor of the north building. The other two rooms are filled with furniture, making it inconvenient to get in and out.
Leyun clicked on her brother's sleeping point and sent him to the study on the second floor to sleep. She also asked her father and Aunt Feng to go to rest early, and she stayed alone in the main room to keep vigil.
To do mundane things, someone must keep vigil in the mourning hall every night. Even if the aunt's soul is still in the jade talisman, since the mourning hall is set up, there must be descendants to keep vigil.
Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, listened to the little cotton jacket and kept vigil until eleven o'clock in the evening, and then went to bed.
When an elderly person in rural areas dies, the host's family usually holds a formal banquet the night before the funeral. Villagers or friends do not need to be invited by the host, but go and give gifts themselves and sit at the table.
After dinner that night, a gong and drum team or performance team sang funeral songs, also called "mourning".
The reason why funerals are held is to protect the deceased from being harassed. There are many people and strong yang energy. The lonely ghosts who come to eat and drink during their free time do not dare to approach, so they will not disturb the peace of the deceased and let the deceased Spend your last night in the earth peacefully.
The funeral usually lasts until about twelve o'clock in the evening. There is also a meal at midnight. After eating the supper, the villagers disperse. Some people are close to the deceased and will meet with the family members and special relatives of the deceased. Stay up all night together to keep vigil for the deceased.
The Le family used to build a house with more than 20 tables at the top. When doing business, the whole village could sit down and sit down, so the number of people expected would not be less than 50 tables.
Therefore, Brother Zhou and others spent the night repairing and replenishing their energy. They got up before dawn on the 2nd and went to Lejia. They made breakfast first, and the masters went to the dojo. They formally prepared the evening dishes.
The second day's water and land dojo lasted only half a day, and guests were welcomed in the afternoon.
Yang Dayantong and Zhou Qi are the chefs in Lejia's kitchen. Zhang Lao San, Cheng Wu, Cheng Liu, Liu Lu's dad Zhou Papi serve as assistants, Zhou brother Cheng Youde and others do odd jobs, and they also put tables at Grandma Zhou's house and Cheng Youde's house.
The Le family didn't have any distant relatives or friends, and the Chao family didn't notify them either, so no relatives or friends came in the morning.
Just after noon, Zhang Ke arrived at Lejia carrying a gift.
Because of Grandma Zhang's behavior, Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, stopped interacting with Zhang Ke. Since it was just a matter of business, when Zhang Ke came, they couldn't chase him away, so they had to kneel down to welcome him according to the rules.
Zhang Ke helped up the Lejia couple who were kneeling at the door of the Lejia hall. He was extremely ashamed: "Yueqing, my mother...she was sorry for Leya. I came to atone for my sins. I wore sackcloth and mourning for Leya and became a filial son and grandson. Apologize to Leya on behalf of my mother."
"..." Leya's father Zhou Qiufeng looked at Zhang Ke in shock.
Village Chief Zhou was also surprised; "Zhang Ke, you said you... you came here to put mourning on Leya?"
People who can put mourning on Leya are usually relatives or juniors who are related to the deceased. Peers, or students, pay filial piety to their teachers, but outsiders are not eligible.
There is another exception, that is, someone wears linen and shows mourning in order to apologize to the deceased, or someone kills the deceased, and the family of the deceased requires someone to wear linen and show mourning for the deceased to atone for his sins.
"Yes, Uncle Man, my mother has done something tormenting her conscience. She should have come to apologize to Le Ya Dai Xiao. My mother is in jail now and can't come. My father's debt is repaid by his son, and my mother's debt is repaid by her son. I'll do it for my mother." Come and atone for your sins."
Zhang Ke has become more and more taciturn in recent years. He rarely visits other people's homes or gathers to listen to gossip. He stays at home when he is not working.
Because of the long period of self-reflection, his conscience became increasingly uneasy, and it took all his courage to come to Lejia.
Le's father Zhou Qiufeng was unwilling to accept it and looked at his little cotton-padded jacket.
Village Chief Zhou also looked at little Lele next to the coffin: "Lele, what do you say?" "
My aunt was deceived by the Zhang family and sold to Chen Wu. She was also an accomplice in my aunt's death. She It is only natural that my son should pay her debts, and my aunt can afford it." Le Yun didn't like Zhang Ke, but she didn't refuse him to atone for her sins.
"Okay, if Lele says yes, let Zhang Ke apologize to Leya on his mother's behalf." Xiao Lele made the decision, and Village Chief Zhou did not object.
Zhang Ke handed the gift to Village Chief Zhou, entered the Lejia hall, first went to Le Yaling to offer incense, then quickly helped the Lejia sisters and Chen family brothers, and took one for himself She put on her white clothes and went to Yueqing. Later she would follow the Yueqing couple on their knees to receive the guests.
Less than forty minutes after Zhang Ke arrived at Lejia, representatives from Jiudao's kindergarten went to Lejia to offer incense to Lejia's aunt and gave her a gift.
The gift money is not much, it is based on the numerical level of the gift money given by everyone when doing business in the village.
They gave the gift money and went back first, and would come for dinner in the evening.
After seeing off the wave of guests, everyone in the Le family was also ready to welcome their fellow villagers.
Before the villagers came, Leyun stayed for a few minutes, stood up, walked out of the main room directly, and walked along the road towards the village office building. As soon as she reached the village road where there was a big bend towards Lejia, she also met a group of people. Taoist priests meet.
A group of eight Taoist priests came from Shengwu Mountain and were led by Dongfang Shen and Li Ziwang.
When Dongfang Shen saw the girl from the Le family, he knew that she knew the whereabouts of his group, so he came to stop Dai, straightened his robes, and sang to the little girl in mourning clothes who was walking quickly: "Immeasurable Blessings" , Pindao is polite. Hearing that Aunt Le's family is going out tomorrow, Pindao specially came down the mountain to give her a ride." "There's no need to be so
coy." Le Yun said with a tigerish face, not the slightest bit soft-hearted: "My aunt died tragically at the hands of a disciple of your sect. The former head of your sect was also involved. Those two people were connived by you. It is my greatest mercy that I did not directly retaliate against your sect. You used to cover your ears and eyes and pretended to be deaf and blind. What do you have now
? You came here to see my aunt off for the last time with a hypocritical face. If you are such a thing, my aunt will think you are dirty even if she has a spirit. Your arrival will only make my aunt's reincarnation path dirty. Please leave immediately and don't force me to do anything to you. You take action."
"Miss Le, Pindao is sincerely repentant. He just wants to send Aunt Le's family away to alleviate his own sins." Dongfang Shen once again heard the Le family's girl scolding Shengwu Mountain people who would only dirty Leya's reincarnation. If Lu said it, he had to endure the embarrassment and fight for himself in a low voice.
"What do you mean by sincere repentance? When you came to Plum Village, you were just putting on a show, making people think that you lowered your stature and begged me, forcing me to forgive. If I don't forgive, others will only think that I am being unforgiving. People.
When Master Wu Changfeng and his disciples murdered my grandfather, you tried your best to help them cover it up, and now you are trying your best to use tricks to force me. Can such behavior be done by a person who is truly repentant?
If you sincerely regret, you will come to Meicun with great fanfare. But if you regret, you can light a longevity lamp for my aunt on the mountain, chant sutras for my aunt in front of Taozu every morning and evening, pray for reincarnation, be reincarnated into a wealthy family, and enjoy a lifetime of happiness.
Let me tell you black and white, I don't care what the world thinks, so what if others say I am unreasonable and unforgiving? So what if you say I am incompetent?
I live my life for myself. I behave upright and I am never afraid of what others say. I work so hard to live like a human being, not because I have to endure the anger of you or people like you.
As long as a person is alive, there is no obstacle that cannot be overcome, but my aunt is dead and will never survive again. This obstacle will never be overcome.
If my aunt can survive, I can forget about it. My aunt is gone. Before her remains are buried, you want to take advantage of my aunt again. Isn't it disgusting to you?
No matter when you dare to step on the ground in front of my Le family and the road in front of my grandfather's grave, I will dare to throw him out like garbage. "
Le Yun felt disgusted when she looked at the old nose of Shengwu Mountain. He said he was highly virtuous and the pillar of a well-known and upright family. He was clearly a despicable person! The great uncle of Taishi was scolded by the little girl and could not get off the stage. Li Ziwang
hugged Fo Chen and owed him a debt. He bowed and said, "Little girl, we really have the same intentions. We really just came to see Aunt Le's family off for the last time and admit our mistakes to her before her death.
"Master Li, I repaid you for taking care of Senior Yu last time. I wanted to be more tolerant to you than others for Senior Yu's sake, and not to disrespect your reputation as the leader. " , does not mean that I will always be tolerant. My tolerance for you has reached its end. "
Le Yun no longer gives face to the new head of Shengwu Mountain. She was tolerant to him in the past because of Senior Yu. She had already repaid the favor for Senior Yu when she climbed Shengwu Mountain at night. She doesn't owe anyone in Shengwu Mountain now. There is no need. Who are you particularly tolerant of?
