Greetings, Ninth Uncle

This night is destined to be a sleepless night. In the first half of the night, many people settled accounts under the lights, from Cheng Yujin to Qingfu to the Ruan family. In the second half of the night, Cheng Yujin had just fallen asleep and was suddenly awakened by the noise outside.

Du Ruo put on his clothes and hurriedly knocked on the fence outside the building: "Girl, wake up, the old man is dead!"

Cheng Yujin's sleepiness disappeared, and she immediately lifted the curtain and sat up: "When did it happen?"

"Just now, people in the front yard knocked on the door to report, and the lights in the other rooms were also lit."

Cheng Yujin's face suddenly sank, she stopped talking, and immediately got up to change her clothes. It wouldn't be a joke to make such a big fight, Cheng Yujin changed into bright clothes, put on a plain single skirt, and hurried to Fuliyuan.

At this moment, the Fuli Courtyard was full of people, and everyone saw that they were woken up in the middle of the night. The female family members did not wear makeup, and their makeup and hair were not combed. After all, the Ruan family had a good foundation. outdated.

Fortunately, no one cared about this at the moment. Cheng Yujin followed behind the Qingfu County Master, stood in the cold dew and waited for half an hour, and saw the servant coming out of the back room with a sad face, she knelt down to Mrs. Cheng and cried, "Old Mrs. , the old man is gone!"

There was a burst of exclamations in the yard, and suddenly there were cries. Cheng Yujin was also very sad. Not long ago, she took the key from the hand of Old Marquis Cheng, and in a blink of an eye, people were separated forever. The world is impermanent and life is short, Cheng Yujin also sighed and lowered her head.

Whether she can cry or not, the appearance must be there. When Cheng Yujin lowered her head, she just saw Cheng Yumo's face pale, she tugged at Ruan's sleeve in a panic, and said something in a low voice.

Ruan Shi was brewing crying, but after hearing Cheng Yumo's words, her face became ugly. Cheng Yujin suddenly became interested, she observed quietly for a while, and slowly figured out the whole story.

When Lord Cheng passed away, his son and daughter-in-law must observe filial piety for three years, and grandchildren must observe filial piety for one year. During this period, you cannot wear bright clothes, you cannot participate in feasts, and naturally you cannot marry. Huo Changyuan is already twenty-one years old, and the Huo Xue family has long been anxious to marry Huo Changyuan. Cheng Yumo is now going to be filial piety for a year. What will happen to her and Huo Changyuan's marriage?

Chapter 32

It was only in the evening that the family property was divided, and it was only at night when Old Marquis Cheng went.

After the servant came out to announce the funeral, the courtyard suddenly burst into tears. Both the wife and the servant girl bowed their heads and wept at the moment. Old Madam Cheng swayed and almost fell backwards. The female family members were startled and quickly shouted: "Old Madam!"

Mrs. Cheng was immediately supported by the maid, and Cheng Yujin also walked over and held Mrs. Cheng's arm: "Grandma, how are you?"

Mrs. Cheng calmed down and walked in with a cane: "I've been married for most of my life, and I'm leaving today. I'll send him off for the last ride."

Cheng Yujin helped Mrs. Cheng to go inside. The inner room was full of people kneeling all over the room. When Mrs. Cheng came in, everyone avoided: "Mrs."

Cheng Yuanxian and Cheng Yuanhan also stood up: "Mother."

Madam Cheng walked straight inside, and everyone beside her stood up to make way for Madam Cheng. Mrs. Cheng sat sideways on the edge of the room, and saw that Mr. Cheng quietly closed his eyes in the tent, and sighed deeply.

"You didn't want to see me when you were alive, but you didn't expect to see the last side even when you died."

Mrs. Cheng looked up and saw Cheng Yuanjing standing not far away, calm and indifferent, with a posture like bamboo.

Just standing there, it is already very different from others, it is really Xie Tinglanyu, elegant and profound. When Lord Cheng died, he could always see the child in his eyes, so he must be at ease.

At this time, the inside and outside of the house were full of people, and the Princess Qingfu, Mrs Ruan and others also stood at the door of the outer hall holding their handkerchiefs, watching Old Madam Cheng silently. Mrs. Cheng quickly came back to her senses, she moved, and Cheng Yujin immediately stepped forward to support Mrs. Cheng's arm.

Mrs. Cheng said, "Miss, kindness, kindness, kindness, and grace, come up and kowtow to your grandfather."

Cheng Laohou passed away, and this was the last time they kowtowed to their grandfather. Cheng Yujin folded her skirt and knelt down, silently giving a full set of gifts.

After kowtowing, Cheng Yujin immediately rushed back to the yard to change clothes. She wore plain clothes when she went out, but now that Mr. Cheng has passed away, she has to change into filial clothes.

Funerals are very stressful, and they are not as auspicious as happy events, so the entire Yichūn Hou residence looks messy. The maid and the master are very busy, but everything is not arranged properly, and they don't know where they are busy. When Cheng Yujin arrived, the yard behind the mourning hall where the family members rested was empty, not even a maid could be seen. Cheng Yujin walked along the chasing hall, and when she passed through the wing, she heard faint voices coming from inside.

"...The Hof people said that they wanted to get married earlier. Now it's time for her father-in-law's filial piety. What should Mo Er do?"

"Keep filial piety for the elders, if the Huo family is picky about these things, then the marriage will not be successful!"

Another woman's voice grew louder: "Second Master, calm down, you are so loud all of a sudden, be careful attracting people! Of course I know I need to be filial, and I am also very sad when my father is gone, and I can't wait to give my life to my father. Mo’er’s filial piety is the same, you have watched Mo’er grow up since you were a child, don’t you know what kind of child Mo’er is?”
