Chapter 107 Uninvited Guest
During the brief silence, Yuan Yaogui squeezed in.
He patted Brother Tang on the shoulder, and said in a calm voice, "Shi Fan, I saw a pair of little brothers and sisters in Shantang a few days ago, they are cute and sensible, but they have no relatives, why don't they recognize this Mrs. Liu as their mother? In case no one throws a basin behind her to sacrifice..."
Tang Qingshan calmed down, and was the first to understand what he meant, and said: "That's okay, she died so tragicly, she should also do a ritual."
Patriarch Lizheng looked at each other, and Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Qingshan obviously wanted to pay for it when he said that. If he pays, it will be much easier.
Miss Lin also heaved a sigh of relief.
She is not a stingy person, so it doesn't matter if you give some money, as long as it doesn't go to someone she hates, she doesn't mind giving her a grand funeral.
People nowadays are like this, the more beautiful the funeral, the more filial they appear!
It doesn't matter, isn't it just paying for it, then do it!
Once done, stop people's mouths, so that no one will make a fuss about it in the future!
Brother Yuan actually just said it casually and helped out, and then took them with him when he turned around, and went directly to the dental store to buy a pair of little brothers and sisters.
My younger sister is only five years old, and my elder brother is only eight years old, but the children of the poor have already taken charge of their families and are very sensible.
It is not uncommon for this kind of people to recognize their relatives because they are afraid that no one will sacrifice them after death. Recognizing Mrs. Liu as a mother is not very pleasant, but it is also ugly. The key is that this will eliminate the slavery and become a commoner. It's actually a good thing for them.
Because Mrs. Liu was not buried as Tang's wife, the two children took her surname. Their original surname was Fang, so Tang Qingshan gave them a name and kept the original name. The elder brother was Liu Fangyang, and the younger sister was originally Fang. The one named Yadan also followed his elder brother, named Liu Fangtao.
Ms. Lin is a good person, and she directly bought a small yard for them, so that they can temporarily stop the coffin, and they can also live here later. The little brothers and sisters are very grateful.
Then it was time to find a monk to do something.
Brothers from the Yuan family knew everyone well, they ran back and forth with them, and soon even the monks were invited, and they would start doing things early the next morning, for three days in a row.
At home.
Brother Tang only came and said a word, then picked up the person and never came back.
After waiting until the afternoon, when the patriarch Li was returning, the second elder brother went over to ask and found out what was going on.
At this moment, the parents hadn't come back yet, the second elder brother had dinner with his younger siblings, and they waited until evening when the carriage sounded outside, the second elder brother rushed out to meet him, but saw Yuan Yaochu and Yan Chenjue jumped off the carriage.
The second elder brother said: "This is the two of you?"
Yuan Yaochu was very familiar, so he directly led the horse in, closed the fence gate casually, and said: "Don't wait, Uncle Qingshan and the others won't come back, we come to be your companions!"
Second brother was taken aback: "Huh?"
Yuan Yaochu unloaded the carriage very neatly, and led the horse back, just like going home.
Yan Shen Jue took a few steps forward and explained a few sentences.
There are a lot of things to do for the funeral, and tomorrow morning we have to start making arrangements, so Tang Qingshan and Brother Tang San are still in the temple right now.
And because Mrs. Liu also had to stay, Mrs. Lin and Brother Tang lived in that small courtyard temporarily to keep watch for Mrs. Liu. Brother Tang wanted to report to someone, so Brother Yuan said, he simply asked them to come over for a while. Come, be a companion with them at night, otherwise a group of children will not be at ease at home.
Second brother thanked you repeatedly.
Yan Shenjue glanced inside.
Little Nai Tuanzi stood in front of the door, rarely quiet, with her small face upturned, big dark eyes, listening very seriously.
Second Brother said: "Shen Jue come in first, I'll go and see Second Brother Yuan."
"No need," Yan Shenjue held him back, "Second brother moves very quickly, just let him clean up by himself."
The second elder brother smiled helplessly: "This is all my work, and I asked you to be a guest to do it."
"Why are you polite?" Yuan Yaochu waved his hand, "What kind of guest am I, an unexpected guest?"
He laughed twice, and bent down to tease Xinbao: "Little boy? Why don't you talk?"
The second elder brother pressed his sister's little head: "Just now I took her to find the patriarch, I didn't expect at first that when the patriarch said, Ming Xinbao also heard it, and it was like this when I came back, I was afraid she was scared. "
"Oh," Yuan Yaochu coaxed her: "Xinbao is not afraid, can Brother Yuaner give you a hug?"
Xinbao shook his head: "Xinbao is not afraid."
But she didn't ask him to hug her, she still snuggled up to her second elder brother's lap.
The second elder brother hugged her, rubbed her, kissed her small forehead, stood up again, and made the bed, a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, our family was separated in a hurry, and we only bought one bedding and so on. There is no way to replace it.”
"Nothing, nothing," Yuan Yaochu said with a smile: "I can sleep in a grass nest, a tree fork, Xiaojue, don't look at him as a beauty lamp, he is actually very skinny, we are not particular about people, just find someone A bed will do.”
He went over and pulled him to sit down: "Believe me, if we were particular about people, we would have already brought them by ourselves. You really don't have to care about these little things."
Even though the second brother was embarrassed, he had no choice but to sit down.
He said directly: "Then Shen Jue, you can sleep on this couch, I will sleep on the other couch with Xinbao, and Shiro is still sleeping on your couch... Brother Yuan, you sleep on my elder brother's couch, in the east wing, by the way, help I will take care of my two younger brothers."
Yuan Yao raised his hand at the beginning: "No problem."
It's getting late, everyone hasten to boil water and wash the rice.
Yan and Shenjue had already washed their hands when they came, so they sat in the room.
There is a sparsely woven cage on the window sill, semicircular, with the big grasshopper and a few vegetable leaves in it, which looks quite lively.
Yan Shen Jue went to look at it, and pursed his lips.
The one that Xinbao gave him was a little bigger than this one.
The second elder brother tied its hind legs with a rope. When he left, he wrapped it around his sleeves and took him away. When he woke up, there were only two grasshopper legs left by the window. He searched around the garden for a long time, but couldn't find them.
If I had known earlier, I should have made a cage.
The second elder brother just finished washing Xinbao's little feet and came in with her in his arms. Seeing him looking at the grasshopper, he smiled and said, "That's right, raising grasshoppers is still noisy, so it's good to watch and play with."
Yan Shen Jue asked: "Did you make up this cage?"
"No, Shiro made it up, let him make it up for you?" He rushed outside and called, "Shiro?"
Fourth brother Tang responded and came in. The second brother put his sister on the side of the couch and said, "Ming'er weave a cage for Shen Jue."
Fourth Brother Tang smiled and said, "Okay."
As a result, Yuan Yaochu stretched out his head to take a look, and said: "What do you want a cage for?? Didn't yours run away? Let me tell you, you don't know how funny Xiao Jue is. When I went back, I was in the carriage. He gave it to me as strange and fun as a pony, but he didn’t give it back, so he hugged it and walked away. In the end, he didn’t eat breakfast and wandered around the garden. Can you live with a leg, I said you are fine, what are you doing tormenting the grasshopper... But I went to his room and saw that there were only two thighs left, and the grasshopper ran away!"
He laughed haha.
Yan Shenjue, who was caught off guard and exposed, said: "..."
The second elder brother laughed and said: "It's okay, I'll give you this one to play with when you leave later. I'm going to wash my face first."
He went out, and the fourth brother also went out. Yan Shenjue came back silently, and glanced at Nai Tuanzi sitting by the couch.
Nai Duanzi was leaning against the window, clasping her hands together, pouted, pouting her cheeks, and empty eyes, like a sad doll.
Yan Shenjue looked at her for a long time, but she remained motionless.
Yan Shenjue called her softly: "Xinbao? Xinbao?"
