The Eldest Daughter is Beautiful and Saucy

Chapter 64

"Mother Jiang helped mother back to the Longevity Courtyard! The nurses in charge of each yard will help your master to stand up. Our Zhen Guogong Mansion must not break the back at any time. If the sky falls, just stand up and catch it! Second lady, The third madam and the fourth madam followed me to my mother's Longevity Hospital to discuss the death of my son Bai! Bai Qingyan and Bai Jintong went to take care of your fifth aunt, and ordered someone to bring my name card to invite Imperial Physicians Huang, Zhong, and Liu to come over! Bai Jinxiu, Bai Jinzhi, and Qin Lang take good care of your little sister. Lu Ping immediately ordered his horse to ride back to Shuoyang's ancestral home to report the funeral of my Bai family. Housekeeper Hao restrains the servants and prepares for the funeral. You can handle it. Nursing home The army is at the disposal of Steward Hao, and no one in the Bai family is allowed to cause trouble, regardless of concubines, servants, servants, and servants, but Steward Hao can directly kill him without reporting it!"

Dong's voice was steady and fast, without any confusion.

The guards, servants, servants, and maids of the White Mansion all said yes and acted quickly.

Mrs. Dong settled down the affairs of the mansion, turned her head to look at the aristocratic family still standing at the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and said solemnly: "Everyone, I'm sorry, it's hard work for you to accompany our female family members of the Bai family to stand in this wind and snow for so long. It's been a long time, but my Bai family's important affairs are at hand, and I really can't take care of inviting everyone into the mansion for a cup of hot tea! I hope you will forgive me!"

The Bai family encountered a catastrophe, and the head of the house, Mrs. Dong, straightened her back and arranged all the affairs of the house in an orderly manner, which was admirable.

Most of the people present were juniors, and they all understood that the Bai family was falling apart at this time, so why were they in the mood to invite them in for tea, and hurriedly bowed and returned the salute.

"I also hope that Madam Shizi will mourn!"

"My condolences to Mrs. Shizi!"

When Dong raised his eyes again, tears were streaming down his face.

"Sister! Brother and I stay and help!" Dong Qingping said to Dong with red eyes, "What do you want me and brother to do?"

Dong braced her spine straight, and her voice was filled with weak sobs and tears: "Today is New Year's Eve, and all the men in my Bai family have returned after dying... I don't know where to find so many coffins."

Hearing this, Bai Qingyan was heartbroken.

Looking at the children of the aristocratic family and the common people who were still guarding the gate of Bai's house and had never left, she knelt down and bowed, enduring the severe pain in her heart, choked up and said: "My grandfather Zhen Guogong's coffin was prepared a long time ago! But I never expected that all the men of my Bai family would die for the country! Five days later, King Xin sent the bones of my men from the Bai family back to the city. Now it is the New Year's Eve, and there is no time to prepare the coffins of my father, uncles and younger brothers. Bai Qingyan dares to borrow the standard coffin! Let me, the man of the Bai family, be buried with dignity."

After she finished speaking, she respectfully kowtowed again, and Bai Jinxiu, Bai Jintong, Bai Jinzhi... also followed Bai Qingyan and bowed their knees.

The Bai family is a loyal family, shedding blood for the country, how can the people of the Great Jin Kingdom let the heroes end up buried without a coffin? !

That night, during the New Year's Eve festival, the city was full of crying, for the death of the hero, for the loyalty and bravery of the Bai family, and for the Dajin Jiangshan, which will be guarded by the pillars of Wuzhen and the country.

And Bai Qingxuan, who was guarded in the Qingmingyuan, was startled when he heard the news. He didn't even care about his injuries. He grabbed his mother's wrist and asked, "What?! They're all dead?! Grandfather, father... Are they all dead?!"

"Yeah! What can we do!" The woman panicked, "Hundreds of thousands of troops died in southern Xinjiang, the emperor must blame him! If I knew it, I wouldn't have come back! What if I was implicated and ransacked all my families?" What to do! No... I have to think of a way, we have to escape!"

After Bai Qingxuan was stunned, a strange brilliance suddenly burst out from his eyes. He squeezed the woman's wrist tightly, and said in a strangely soft voice, "Mother! You said...all the men in this Bai family are dead! Did the Duke's title fall on my head?!"

The woman's eyelids twitched, her throat rolled, and her ecstasy was suppressed in her heart by fear: "But, I heard... It was Duke Zhen's reckless use of the army that led to the annihilation of the entire army. It's a big crime, what if the whole family is involved? Life is more important than this title? Let's run away first!"

"Then what if the emperor doesn't blame it?!" Bai Qingxuan's lips curled into a smile. Our mother and child!"

The woman was so moved by Bai Qingxuan's words, she couldn't let go of the wealth of the town's government, but she was greedy for life and afraid of death, so she hesitated.

The first day of the first month.

The Duke of Zhen's mansion, which had been shrouded in gloom and depression for two days, became busy with the cheering up of the mistress Dong. The servants who were preparing for the funeral hurried in and out at the corner gate.

Before dawn, Housekeeper Hao, who had been busy all night, came to the eldest princess's upper room. Except for the eldest princess who couldn't bear it and was persuaded to rest, the eldest wife Dong, the second wife Liu, and the third wife of the Zhen Guogong's mansion Mrs. Li and fourth wife Wang are both there.

The seventeen sons of the Bai family, together with the Duke and the five sons of the Duke, twenty-three coffins could not fit in the main hall of the Bai family.

"Put up the canopy..." Mrs. Dong braced herself, and calmly said to Steward Hao, who didn't know what to do, "Just put it in the courtyard...the door of the house is wide open! Let the people of the metropolis, the officials who live in the temple Let's all see how miserable my Bai family has become for the Great Jin."

"Mrs. Shizi, the second madam, the third madam, and the fourth madam, the concierge came to report that... a lot of people outside the house have brought coffins!"

Dong's throat was rolling, and he stood up and said, "I'll go out and have a look. The three younger brothers and sisters are tired all night, go back and rest! Replenish your energy, on the fifth day... welcome our husband and son home."

The fourth lady cried again, shaking her head so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.

Bai Qingyan, who came after hearing the news, arrived at the door almost at the same time as Dong Shi.

At this time, the red lanterns in the White Mansion had been replaced with white ones, and the red silk in the courtyard had been replaced with black and white cloth.

Outside the wide-open mansion gate, the common people stood in the snow, leading ox carts, horse-drawn carts, and carrying their own high-quality coffins to block the entrance, and some aristocratic families sent people to bring coffins.

The sixtieth-year-old man, leading an ox cart, cupped his hands to Dong Shi and Bai Qingyan and said, "Mrs. Shizi, eldest girl... this is a good coffin, old man! I don't know if it complies with the rules and regulations. Can I give it to the Shizi?" ... the generals or the little princes?"

"I'm the best coffin! It's the best! Mrs. Shizi... Miss! Use my coffin!"

"My good! My good! This is a serious pine coffin! It's strong!"

"Mrs. Shizi, my house is a coffin shop! The coffins I brought here were all ordered by dignitaries years ago, and I brought them all! They are all made of nanmu! Although it is not the best nanmu! But it is absolutely worthy Lords of the Shangbai Mansion..."

Dong Shi and Bai Qingyan stood at the door with tears in their eyes, saluting to the people rushing to deliver the coffin.
