Jin followed the mule cart, making a painful sound like a mother animal losing her cub, and tried her best to stretch her arms to reach the coffin.
However, Lao Yang's family was afraid that she would commit suicide again, so they sent several people to drag her back to the courtyard of the third room.
Tan also fainted and fell to the ground, surrounded by a circle of people.
Old Yangtou was so anxious that he shouted: "It's all chaos, it's all chaos!"
"Lao San, don't go to the ancestral hall yet. Hurry, go and call Wang Sheng over. Your mother has fainted!"
Yang Huazhong was about to call Wangsheng when Tan came to his senses under the care of everyone.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief again.
Tan was also helped back to the third room.
Sun, Bao Suyun, Yang Huamei, Cao Bamei, and Mo all stayed with Tan and Jin, lest they have other bad actions or reactions.
The other people followed the mule cart to the entrance of the ancestral hall to conduct other matters.
Yang Ruoqing, Xiaoduo, Juer, Sanyatou, and Mianmian, all the girls who were married outside, also came back, and they all helped take care of things inside and outside.
The men went to the ancestral hall.
After a while, the sound of firecrackers was heard from the ancestral hall, which meant that Yang Yongxian had moved into the temporary mourning hall.
A team of Taoist priests were invited to help Yang Yongxian with the funeral arrangements. The Taoist team came in before lunch. After lunch, they would go to the mourning hall to perform a bunch of rituals. The entire process of these rituals must be completed. until early morning.
Then at dawn tomorrow, Yang Yongxian will be carried up the mountain for burial.
Everyone is busy with this matter.
All the relatives of Lao Yang's family were invited to help. The men took care of the mourning hall, serving tea for the Taoist priests and serving tea to relatives and friends who came to pay their respects.
The women of Lao Yang's family stayed in the backyard kitchen to prepare meals for the Taoist priests and relatives and friends.
Yang Ruoqing and other girls who were married outside were part of the group that came to mourn. Apart from accompanying Jin and Tan, they basically had nothing else to do.
Moreover, she had been staying in the third room, and the atmosphere was very bad. Yang Ruoqing saw that Xiaoduo's face was not good-looking, so she asked her what was going on.
Xiaoduo said: "Sister, my stomach feels uncomfortable and I feel like vomiting from time to time."
Yang Ruoqing looked at Xiaoduo, "Are you pregnant?"
Xiaoduo shook his head, "It's impossible. My body was damaged when I gave birth to Rourou last time. I haven't been very accurate in the past six months. I'm afraid I won't be able to get pregnant in this life."
Yang Ruoqing frowned secretly.
Whenever she mentioned this, she would curse Xiang Shengnan in her heart.
Not seeing that he is Xiaoduo's husband, Jiaojiao's biological father, and the most suitable teammate of the opposite sex with whom Xiaoduo is willing to maintain a complete family. Otherwise, according to Yang Ruoqing's temper, if her sister was bullied like this, she would have long ago Xiang Shengnan’s third leg was broken!
"What's going on? Did you accumulate food? Or something?" Yang Ruoqing asked again.
Xiaoduo shook his head and said, "I don't know. It was fine at first. When I went to pull Auntie out, I accidentally smelled a smell coming from the coffin... Then I felt uncomfortable in my stomach."
Yang Ruoqing suddenly realized.
Luo Fengtang had previously pulled her aside and privately warned her not to go to the coffin.
Xiaoduo probably smelled the stench of corpses and was poisoned.
"Come on, go sit over at my house for a while."
Xiaoduo looked around, "Where are the children?"
Yang Ruoqing: "Don't worry, the baby will take them to play, and I, Aunt Cuilian, will follow them anytime and anywhere."
Xiaoduo felt relieved and followed Yang Ruoqing to the Luo family.
In the Luo family hall, Yang Ruoqing made a bowl of chrysanthemum crystal tea for Xiaoduo, adding a little honey and a little vinegar to it.
"Take a few sips and calm down." Yang Ruoqing signaled.
Xiaoduo nodded, picked it up and took a few sips.
The chrysanthemums in her mouth were sober, a little sour and sweet, and the refreshing breath went straight to Tianling Gai. She felt that her whole brain was much clearer, and her eyes could see things clearly.
"Sister, it's really good. I'm much more comfortable now. I was upset before!"
Yang Ruoqing smiled and looked outside the hall.
Today is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and the firecracker shells in the yard are still piled up in the corner.
Bursts of firecrackers were heard from the ancestral hall at the entrance of the village, and the smell of smoke and sulfur lingered in the air.
After the sound of firecrackers, there were faint sounds of crying.
The general atmosphere is not good. Except for a few ignorant children, the mood of the entire family will not be disturbed. Everyone else's mood will be affected to some extent.
"Qing'er, I'm going to come over and have a cup of tea. I'm exhausted and my back hurts!"
While Mrs. Liu was talking, people also entered the Luo family hall.
Yang Ruoqing stood up: "Fourth Aunt, you came just in time. I just made you a bowl of chrysanthemum crystal tea for Xiaoduo."
"well!"
“Would Fourth Aunt want some cakes to go with it?”
"No, no, don't give me any cakes now!"
Ms. Liu moved her hands like something else, as if she was disgusted with food.
This surprised both Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoduo. The two sisters looked at each other. Yang Ruoqing asked Liu in surprise: "Fourth Aunt, what's going on? Why are you suddenly so anorexic today?"
In the past, the fourth aunt would never refuse cakes and snacks, and she would eat as much as she could.
"Hey, what else can you do? I'm so smoked that I probably won't want to eat in the past two days!" Mrs. Liu said with a frown, covering her stomach.
Yang Ruoqing exchanged looks with Xiaoduo again. Why is this line so familiar? Could it be that the fourth aunt is also because...
"Qing'er, I'm telling you, never go to the mourning hall. I just didn't control my legs before and had to run over to watch the fun."
"Oh my god, that smell almost sent me away!"
"It's more scary than a dead cat or a pig! I really didn't expect that the gentle scholar in front of Yongxian, who was not bad looking, has become so stinky now!"
Yang Ruoqing was speechless as she listened to Mrs. Liu's babbling and puzzling words.
No matter who you are, whether you are a beggar covered with sores on the roadside or a young girl with skin as good as snow, everyone is essentially the same: they are all carbohydrates.
Once the vital characteristics are lost, under the action of various bacterial microorganisms, the result will be the same...
"Fourth Aunt, have a cup of chrysanthemum crystal tea." Yang Ruoqing put the tea bowl in front of Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu thanked her, picked up the tea bowl, blew on it twice, and drank it impatiently.
After a few sips, I felt much better, so I warmed my hands with the tea bowl in my hands and started to talk to Yang Ruoqing and Xiaoduo about what I had seen in the mourning hall.
"...Mei Ying came over, taking Zhen'er with her. Zhen'er is naturally a dutiful son, but Mei Ying didn't do anything like that. She didn't even wear a white flower on her head..."
