Chapter 425: Misfortune does not go alone
Uncle De ran before and after the funeral, Xu Hao helped write the obituary, invited the monk to come to the house to recite the scriptures, and prepared to break the ground for the funeral and other things.
Mrs. Nie had a clue about everything when she saw it, and when she thought of her sister, she couldn't help crying with Master Nie's sister Nie Zhilan. Nie Zhilan was kind-hearted, comforted her with sisterhood, and asked Feng Die to take her to comfort Chang's.
Chang Fengdie cried too hard, her body was a little unbearable, and she struggled to help Nie Zhilan to the east courtyard, but she really didn't have the energy to talk to her mother, so she lay in her room and fell asleep.
Here Mrs. Chang's sisters are out of harmony, their faces are not salty or light, and they gossip again, Nie Zhilan had to mediate and persuade and ask what happened? It has come to this step.
Chang Shi sighed and said, "It's been a long time, you don't often come here and don't know the inside story." I once told my eldest sister that the two aunts got married, this was originally a joke for each other when the children were young, and I didn't want the eldest sister to speak without knowing the checkpoints, and she was taken true by the two children.
Alas! A few days ago, Mrs. Jia came to the house to propose, and the eldest sister knew, it was the sisters who discussed with her and helped me come up with an idea, even if we get married, it's time to let go of the gift, isn't it? Feng Die is about to leave the cabinet, so she has to talk about it, right? Who wanted her not to hum, not to speak, not to pay attention to me, I told her three times, she said that she was not feeling well and left, and I couldn't get off the stage at that time.
What the hell is going to do, you say! What is the idea in the eldest sister's heart? Should I support my daughter, should I be close to my in-laws and force me to be married? ”
As he spoke, Chang shed tears, and his voice became heavier and heavier. Nie Yuzhi was afraid that the phoenix butterfly next door would hear it, so she bypassed it with other topics and quietly persuaded, "Your business." Don't you know how to consult with me? Sister-in-law is so temperamental, and you have such a temperament, it's not worth it at all. As the saying goes: Love your relatives and be your own children, why bother with such tasteless words? ”
After speaking, he took a sip of herbal tea, and whispered: "Fortunately, these two children are honest, if they are big-hearted, how can they be born?" In my opinion, to such a field. The eldest brother is dead, you should look at the other if you don't look at this one, and now all relatives and friends have come. But if you don't go over, your nose will be too conspicuous and inconspicuous. ”
At this time, Liang's mother rushed in and shouted, "Our wife has liver disease, please go and take a look." ”
This sentence immediately frightened the two ladies into panic. Ran to the west courtyard to have a look. Seeing that all relatives and friends were surrounding Mrs. Nie, who was ill, Nie Yuji was crying outside, and Chang Lu invited a gentleman to diagnose the pulse.
Mr. Yin Yang was writing a green list in the yard, and the craftsmen who built the shed in the yard were shouting to eat and drink, Xu Hao was angry, and stepped forward and kicked down the leader, and the others who bluffed went to work honestly.
It's a pity that Xu Hao doesn't have a right-hand man by his side, so he can't take care of this end. There was another shout at the door, and the transfer of Shoucai had arrived. It made a lot of noise in and out of the courtyard.
Nie Yuji and Chang Lu were busy inside and out, Uncle De was busy sending Mr., and was busy pouring medicine to Mrs. Nie, and they had to keep an eye on the carpenter to build the coffin, and they made a mess for two days and two nights.
Seeing that Mrs. Nie was seriously ill, Nie Yuji was in a hurry, because there were many people in the West Courtyard and could not recuperate, so she carried her mother to the East Courtyard to rest, leaving Liang's mother and Nie Huihui to serve, and asked Chang and Nie Yuzhi to receive the female guests in the West Courtyard.
Xu Hao finished doing his job and stood in the distance, and there was no doubt that he wanted to help a little too much, looking at Nie Yuji kneeling in front of the spirit, Uncle De and Chang Bin brothers, and Nie Yuzhi's husband and other men in the shed.
Xu Hao thought about it and simply went to the East Courtyard to visit Feng Die, and saw that she had a fever due to excessive grief, her head was dizzy, her eyes were foggy, and she heard that Mrs. Nie was crazy and very sick, so she couldn't help but move a little heart, but she didn't eat a drop of rice for two days, and she was restless and panicked, and her expression was even more trance-like.
Xu Hao took some fruit and watermelon, cut it with a knife, frowned and observed Feng Die's movements, and saw Nie Huihui send a bowl of rice porridge, Chang Feng Die looked at her cousin wearing a white cloth filial piety robe, as if she had seen a stranger, and she couldn't see who it was after thinking about it for a long time?
Mother Liang hurriedly came over and called the girl several times, Feng Die first nodded in agreement, and suddenly got up desperately and asked, "What's your surname?" You come to my house to pick out what is wrong with you? What do I have to do with him about you? ”
Liang's mother was startled and said with a wry smile: "My girl, why are you confused?" I don't even know each other anymore? ”
Xu Hao has seen this scene before, after Xu Cuiyun took home from the palace that day, he was so delirious, screaming, crying and laughing for more than a month, it is not a good thing to say that people are too smart, and they often go to their hearts more than ordinary people when they encounter things.
Fortunately, Feng Die's condition is not strict, and she was shocked in her heart, knowing that she was confused in her heart, and accidentally said what she thought was listened to, and her cheeks were slightly red, so she fell down and lay down.
Liang's mother was from here, stepped forward to cover the quilt for her, and whispered: "Eat some watermelon when you are thirsty, just call me if you have anything, if you can get up and move, it's okay." It's hot and ventilated in the house, so it's not child's play if it's hot. Originally, my young master was in a hurry to die, if the girl was sick again, would it be okay? ”
Xu Hao saw Feng Die show a smile, breathed a sigh of relief, got up and went out, and then Liang's mother took Nie Huihui's hand and came out, and when she returned to the room, she saw Mrs. Nie lying upright on the kang, and she didn't know anything about it.
The two of them were as pale as earth, and hurriedly went to the west courtyard to deliver the letter, Xu Hao took the first step into the house, reached out and touched Mrs. Nie's meridians, and found that his limbs were cold and he had no breath.
The Nie family was so shocked that they ran over, Uncle De shouted and said Hurry up, Chang cried and shouted to hold down the human acupoint, which made Xu Hao, who originally wanted to do cardiopulmonary first aid, unable to do it himself, and stepped aside, so as to say that Chang and other women would take turns to give first aid, but unfortunately they couldn't be saved.
Even though Xu Hao was already accustomed to seeing life and death, he couldn't help but be very sad at this moment, and turned around and walked out with a long sigh.
Nie Yuzhi and the others were all panicked, tremblingly touched their chest and lips, tears were in their eyes, and they screamed miserably. caused the Chang family to cry loudly.
Uncle De pulled up Nie Yuji and asked, "Where are your mother's clothes?" Someone is about to get it, and it won't be able to wear it a moment later. ”
Everyone was crying in the house. Nie Yuji lost his parents and parents, and fell to the ground on his knees, Uncle De was so anxious that he stomped his feet again and again, and the incense to guide the fire over there was ready, and the monks and masters were waiting to send three.
When all the relatives and friends heard the crying, they rushed over, Xu Hao frowned and went in and shouted to the crazy Nie Yuji: "Mourn and be filial, as long as you are a son of man, you only need to give birth to your heart." It's enough to die all of his body, isn't it filial piety if he doesn't bury his parents, and his son temporarily cries to death? ”
These words spoke to Nie Yuji's heart. Rumengfang woke up, cried and took out the key to let Liang's mother find clothes, at this time because of the large number of people, it was even more hectic than when Master Nie died before.
Everyone put on Mrs. Nie's clothes first and carried them to the upper rooms of the two courtyards. Stop on the couch. All the relatives and friends cried when they saw such a tragic situation, even the monk tea service and the neighbors who saw the excitement were all sour-eyed, who didn't feel sorry for the brothers and sisters of the Nie family?
At that moment, everyone was miserable and miserable to help send them to the long street, watching the chariots and horses burned, and silently dispersed. Nie Yuji knelt on the street with tears in his eyes, first kowtowing to Xu Hao, and then kowtowing to his uncle. I beg my relatives and friends to continue to help me.
Nie Yuji cried: "The parents are gone, and no one cares for the children anymore." Whining! ”
Uncle De held back tears and helped him up, and said: "I will definitely help you with these two major things, you go back and rest first, I will take your brother Changlu to see the coffin, and the trivial matters at home will be entrusted to Brother Xia." ”
Xu Hao hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will do my best." ”
Not to mention that the big guy helped the Nie family to be busy and take care of trivial matters, Chang Fengdie learned that her aunt had also passed away, and her heart was like a steel knife.
The oblique moon shines on the window, and there is a lone lamp in the house, half bright and half out. She lay alone on the couch, cold and miserable, crying so much that no one cared about her life.
In the end, Xu Haoji hung on her, and the bell was also tied to the bell, and Nie Yuji was asked to visit. Nie Yuji ran over to lift the curtain and looked, there was no movement in the room, only the cousin was still burying her head under the pillow, with a red quilt on her body, crying sadly.
Nie Yuji stepped forward to look, Feng Die's face was like silver paper, her mouth was open and her eyes were closed, and she was really bleak and dying.
The bluffing Nie Yuji almost lost the candle in his hand, took a step back, but was tightly held by Feng Die's wrist, and looked at him sadly and lowered his head and cried.
At this time, Feng Die was aggrieved, and when she saw that her sweetheart was like a thick history book, she didn't know where to start, so she let go and choked up: "You and I are the treasures of my uncle and aunt, and from now on, none of us will be in pain." ”
After finishing speaking, he hid his face and cried, Nie Yuji, as a man, persuaded: "Sister, don't be narrow-minded, otherwise I won't die in a hurry?" ”
This sentence is like a panacea, Feng Die listened to his heart and said his heart, he understood everything, the crying gradually stopped, afraid that it would be inconvenient for others to hear, so he sighed and said: "I'm not for anything else, the second old man is dead, your family business is scattered, and even your fame and studies have been counted since then." ”
Thinking about it, he sighed for himself, and said: "You and I might as well be dead at this time, but we are also clean, why don't we wait for the next life and the next life?" Speaking of this, I consciously lost my words, and I couldn't help but feel ashamed on my face.
Nie Yuji suddenly said: "Sister hurts my heart, I know everything, but now the funeral is imminent, I see that my aunt is issuing a certificate all day long, you have to be in a hurry, who do you want me to live again?" ”
Chang Bin walked in and said that Uncle De has done everything and is waiting for you to discuss. Nie Yuji comforted a few words, and when he came to the West Courtyard, the monks had already taken their seats, and instructed everyone to stand up according to their identities, and called the family to kneel down.
Xu Hao stood from a distance and watched, and saw Nie Yuji offering wine to his deceased father, and bowed on the ground to thank his relatives and friends.
Everyone saw that he was not very old, and it was not easy to be so smart and calm, but it was a pity that he was handsome when he was young, and his parents died, which was pitiful and lamentable.
Someone said, "It's late at night, have you eaten anything?" My father is dead, my mother is dead, I can't eat my voice, and now your parents' major affairs are all up to you, if you get a plague, who will replace you? ”
Nie Yuji thanked him, shook his hand and said that he was not hungry, and Uncle De said while persuading him to eat: "Mr. Fang Cai Yin and Yang did not open a list, saying that it is not good to do it every day, and it can be delayed for seven days at most." If you wait for the funeral together, not only will you cheat the corpse, but you will also have to make a fuss.
According to me, if people are dead, even if they stop for a few more days, they will eventually be buried in the ground, so it is better to bury them earlier, and your parents' hearts will be quiet. I have already discussed with your aunt and them, and I will simply shorten the days, so that you don't even have to recite your father's three-day sutra, so as to save worry and money, and leave it to you later, after all, you will have to live in the future. If you have filial piety, even if you recite the scriptures on an anniversary, what about the longevity of the scriptures. ”
Xu Hao also stepped forward to explain: "The original price of silver is folded into two parts, and these expenses are thrown away, and half of the useless red card deacon is removed, so that the helpers and drummers such as the car, paper horse, etc. are all subtracted." ”
Uncle De said: "The poor can't be buried rich, no one in the neighborhood will laugh at you, as long as you have a strong heart, that is to honor your parents." ”
Everyone looked at the dissatisfaction on Nie Yuji's face, and persuaded together: "Let's do it, what Xia Gongzi and Uncle Xia said is the truth, after the funeral, let's round up all the things in our faces, there are so many relatives, there are many relatives, and the relatives are harmonious and united, which is better than any decency." Besides, your parents died of illness, and you didn't have debts when you lay down, and your brothers and sisters still have to burn money and turn paper into paper, so why fight to win? You have spent all your family business and live by begging, who doesn't laugh? ”
When Nie Yuji heard this, he was really heartbroken and sad, but his relatives were all kind, so he didn't dare to grab the white, so he had to bow his head aggrievedly. (To be continued......)
