Where did Sang Fuyue go early in the morning? In fact, he didn't really want to go anywhere in particular. Even after playing with the gun, he still felt depressed. I have no choice but to go out for a walk at dawn when there are not many people outside.
Of course, the truth must not be told to his wife and sister, otherwise they would have to worry.
Sang Fuyue sometimes has some emotional intelligence, so she said, "I went out to buy breakfast for you."
He also said that in his impression, there was a breakfast shop he often went to, and the wontons there were delicious. But when he followed his intuition and went there, he found that the store was not open today.
He followed his intuition and went to find a bakery seller, but it happened that the elder brother and sister-in-law of that store got up late today. When he went there, the two of them were quarreling over this matter, and the stove was not turned on. He had no choice but to wait and wait, and finally waited for half an hour before returning home with freshly baked pancakes.
Chang Minjun took a bite of the crispy pancake. It was quite delicious, with fillings inside. It seems to be fish and shrimp meat with some pork added, and some mushrooms and bamboo shoots in it. Anyway, one bite can be delicious on the tongue.
The cooking cakes were delicious. Even though Chang Minjun and Sang Nianyue had already eaten, they each ate a small cooking cake.
But after eating, Chang Minjun couldn't help but say to Sang Fuyue, "The cakes are delicious, but don't buy them next time."
Sang Fuyue took one sesame seed pancake in two mouths and was eating deliciously. Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at his wife, "Are you being sarcastic?"
"Don't you know whether what I said is true or false? You didn't leave a message in advance when you were going out. This made Nugging and I think you had run away from home. If you don't come back, we both have to go out in person. I'm looking for you."
Just as they were talking, Qing'er and Lei Zhan'er ran in from outside. As soon as they entered the flower hall, they smelled the delicious smell of sesame cakes and immediately said nothing. Lei Zhan took one and gave it to his uncle, and divided it between his two younger brothers. Then he squatted on the chair, holding a pancake and eating it deliciously.
Sang Fuyue originally wanted to refute her wife's remarks, but when she saw her son like this, she immediately forgot all about it. He yelled "Thunder War!"
Lei Zhan immediately sat down and blinked at his father obediently, as if he was as obedient as he could be.
Sang Fuyue was choked. She was simply used to her son's behavior and didn't bother to bother him.
He talked to a few more people and just went to the paper tie shop. All the paper tie they had ordered before was already ready.
Upon hearing this, Chang Minjun said, "Nuan Nuan and I have discussed and ordered the banquet list for the day when my parents-in-law are commemorating the New Year. We have also invited two master chefs to prepare the banquet." Including other chores, they have also been arranged. It can be done in a day or two.
Sang Fuyue nodded when she heard the words, "Then there are only invitations left to send out. Okay, Qing'er and I will go work on this later. Let's arrange everything in advance so that we won't be in a hurry until now."
Speaking of the New Year's memorial service for father and mother, it was a big event right in front of us. When it was mentioned, several people got excited and couldn't think of anything else for a while. After everyone had their stomachs filled, everyone went about their business.
Chang Minjun and Sang Nuanyue met with several shopkeepers to finalize the things they would need at home or for memorial ceremonies.
Qing'er's handwriting was not decent yet, and Sang Fuyue wrote all the invitations herself. However, as the next head of the family who wanted to inherit the legacy of his ancestors, Qing'er didn't have much time to spare. He has to grind ink and cut paper for his eldest brother, and wait for the invitations to be written. He will also follow his eldest brother to personally post the invitations to various friends he has made friends with.
You know, when Chang Minjun and his three children entered the family tree, the Sang family also posted a post inviting everyone, but at that time the post was sent by some elderly people such as Uncle Li and Uncle Wang. Now, as a sign of solemnity, the brothers came to the door in person. This etiquette couldn't be more thoughtful.
In the busy schedule, it soon came two days before the Sang family's parents' anniversary celebration. During these two days, two relatives and friends from far away came to visit one after another.
The first person to visit was an uncle named Lu.
Not many people know his surname, but when it comes to his identity, there are some who know it.
This uncle surnamed Lu originally studied at Qingyang Academy with Father Sang, and the two were real classmates. After that, the two of them took the imperial examination together, and won the scholarship and the imperial examination together, and even won the Jinshi at the same time.
It is no exaggeration to say that the two are classmates and have the same subject. And it was precisely because of their close relationship that when Sang Fuyue was born and the Lu family's uncle was lucky enough to receive a thousand gold coins, the two families decided to arrange a marriage for the child.
In the end, the marriage was not settled because the child was too young and could not see the possibility of it.
But when the two children grew older, Sang Fuyue showed great talent, literary talent and martial arts; and the woman was even more beautiful and charming, and was educated in poetry, calligraphy and painting. If the man is talented and the woman is beautiful, then this is the best possible marriage. In addition, the elders of the two parents had this intention in the early years, so the marriage contract was settled naturally.
It turns out that when the Sang family went to Xiamen, such a human tragedy happened.
Because Lingzhou, where the Lu family is located, is too far away from Minzhou, the Sang family's family is ruined and has no place to stand, and they are beyond their reach. In addition, the death of the Sang family's parents had a lot to do with the Lu family, so the Lu family's uncle collapsed immediately after hearing the news. I heard that I have been depressed over the past few years and my health has not been very good. I always spend half of January lying on the bed.
Sang Nianyue had thought of the Lu family before, but because her parents were killed, it was difficult for her not to blame the Lu family, so since she went to the Zhou family, she had lost contact with the Lu family. Over the years, she has never read any letters from the Lu family. As she married away to Yu County, the two families lost contact. But now that she has a sister-in-law, it is even harder to mention the Lu family, so Sang Nianyue just thinks that this relationship does not exist.
The clinker, the uncle of the Lu family, arrived in Jinzhou just before his parents' anniversary celebration.
This uncle was very high-spirited in Sang Nianyue's impression. Although he looks ordinary, his temperament is very good, and he is an unforgettable scholar at first sight.
But now Uncle Lu's elegant aura is still there, but all that literati style has turned into a pale and haggard figure tortured by the disease. And there was sadness brewing in his eyebrows, and there was a knot between his brows, and he didn't look at ease for a moment.
Uncle Lu's body was really weak, and he was always carried in by the eldest son when he entered the house. He was so skinny that it was difficult to breathe. When he saw Sang Fuyue, a string of tears rolled out of his eyes uncontrollably, "Fuyue, Fuyue, I can't help you..."
Uncle Li and Uncle Wang immediately wiped the corners of their eyes when they heard this.
Uncle Lu entered Sang's house and went to the ancestral hall to burn three sticks of incense. He couldn't hold on anymore and fainted.
Only then did the eldest brother of the Lu family say, "My father has always felt guilty about his uncle and aunt of the Sang family. He has never been happy for a day in these years." He added, "The second sister got married, and my father felt even more guilty. Fu Yue, the second sister came home. , my father never saw her."
It was precisely because of his guilt towards his old friends, the virtuous couple, and Sang Fuyue that these guilts tortured Uncle Lu's body and mind day by day, making his originally strong body become thinner and thinner. Over the years, he could no longer support it and lay in bed. I could barely get up from the bed.
"It was an old friend here in Jinzhou who sent the news to my father, and my father learned that you had been found by Sister Sang. But he was too embarrassed to see you, and wanted to come over and see you..." After all kinds of torture, Ben The weak body fell down again. And this time, I almost lost half my life in one fall, and it turned out that I couldn't make enough money.
I don't know whether it was a wish he had made for many years, or he felt that he had finally made an explanation to his old friend, but Uncle Lu's uncle was falling into coma day by day and couldn't even scream.
In the end, it was Aunt Lu who cried day and night beside his pillow, saying that she didn't let her second sister guard Fuyue, so how could they not come to apologize? If you don't want to see if Fuyue is really back, how can you have the nerve to die? He also said that the memorial at home is just a tomb. If you don't go to Jinzhou to worship it in person during your lifetime, how can you have the face to meet the Sang family down there?
Just like that, he woke up Uncle Lu's family.
After two days of nursing, Uncle Lu forced his eldest son to carry him on his back to the passenger ship, and then to Sang's house.
The eldest brother of the Lu family couldn't help but have tears in his eyes as he said these words. He bowed to Sang Fuyue again, "You won't see your body when you are alive, and you won't see your body when you die... My father wanted my second sister to be guarded by you, but my mother didn't agree. Behind my father's back, I told my second sister to marry him off. Go out...Father feels more and more guilty and his body becomes weaker..."
Because he was ashamed of the Sang family, Uncle Lu's uncle couldn't sleep day and night. And because his daughter got married, he felt that he was too embarrassed to meet his old man. But as a father who loves his daughter, he also knows that he should not let his daughter be guarded by a dead person and torture his good daughter into a human form. He knew it was right to find another family for his daughter, but he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. Under the torture day after day, the entire human figure was broken and broken, like a living dead.
When Sang Nianyue walked out of the guest house with her brother, the expressions on her face were filled with sadness.
She told her eldest brother, "When we were at the Zhou family, the Lu family sent me several letters, but I blamed them. Those letters were burned without being opened."
He said with red eyes, "Actually, this matter has nothing to do with Uncle Lu."
The reason why his parents died was because Wang's grandfather was too greedy, and those officials exploited him layer by layer, resulting in a loss of 90% of the money needed to build the river embankment. The embankment was a shoddy project and would collapse as soon as the water washed over it. The parents happened to walk to that section of water and were washed away by the flood.
The parents were innocent, but Uncle Lu was also another innocent person in this matter.
And despite the condemnation of his conscience, he has never had a day of peace in these years. Seeing how hard it was for him to breathe now, Sang Nuanyue felt regretful. She was upset. She should have replied to the letter in the first place and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you." Although these words may not necessarily be useful, they can always help Uncle Lu suffer less from his conscience.
Sang Nuanyue blamed herself. Sang Fuyue touched her sister's head and said, "I don't blame you for this."
How can you blame your sister? She was only twelve years old at the time. When her family was in trouble, she did not fall down directly, but picked up everything. This is strong enough. But Ningnuo is just a little girl of flesh and blood. She is not a Bodhisattva Vajra, she is just a mortal body. She is flesh and blood, and if she feels too much for her parents and him, she will complain even more about the Lu family. This is all human nature.
Sang Fuyue added: "There is a famous doctor in Jinzhou. I will invite him tomorrow and ask him to check Uncle Lu's pulse to see if Uncle Lu's body can be healed."
"good."
After Sang Nianyue said this, she asked her eldest brother anxiously, "Should I tell my sister-in-law about this?"
Sang Fuyue purred her sister's head, "I must tell your sister-in-law. Don't worry, your sister-in-law is generous and won't be angry with your elder brother because of these things." Not to mention that he couldn't remember the second sister Lu for a long time. Who is he? Let's just say that now that everyone is married and they are both happy, there is really nothing that can't be said when it comes to mentioning it.
Sang Nuanyue nodded, and then separated from her elder brother at the fork in the road.
Sang Fuyue acted calmly in front of his sister, but when he really wanted to talk about his previous marriage to his wife, he felt very guilty.
But, but, the marriage has not been decided yet, so what is he vain about?
Sang Fuyue found Chang Minjun, who was making proper arrangements for Uncle Lu's meals.
The old housekeeper of the Lu family came over and carefully explained to Chang Minjun the old man's dietary taboos. There are too many taboos, not only fishy and other things are taboo, but also some vegetables and incense cannot be used.
After finishing speaking, the old housekeeper saluted Chang Minjun repeatedly, "Excuse me, madam."
"It's okay, I'm a guest. Old man, please go and rest first. I think you're exhausted from running around on the river these days."
After the old housekeeper left, Sang Fuyue showed up. Chang Minjun saw him and asked, "Why did you come here so quickly? Is Uncle Lu okay?"
Sang Fuyue sat down on the chair next to her, frowned slightly and said, "Not very good."
After that, he repeated the words of the eldest brother of the Lu family to Chang Minjun in detail.
Chang Minjun listened carefully, with no hint of happiness or anger on his face.
After everything was said, she still had no reaction. Sang Fuyue's heart was already beating with joy. He poked Chang Minjun, "Daughter-in-law, are you angry?"
"Why am I angry?" Chang Minjun rolled his eyes at him angrily.
Her reaction was actually expected by Sang Fuyue. However, her daughter-in-law really didn't care about her old affairs, and Sang Fuyue was not happy about it.
He was dissatisfied and said, "You don't care about me."
Chang Minjun glanced at him sideways, "Please stop your behavior. You are a father of three children. Don't you know how much it hurts your eyes to act like this?"
Seeing that Sang Fuyue was getting more and more aggrieved, Chang Minjun said nicely, "You can't even think of Nuan Nuan and Qing'er, let alone that second girl. You haven't made up your mind yet, and it's not like your childhood sweethearts have grown up. What a deep friendship. It's all in the past. Now you are married, a man and a woman, and you are well on your own. There is no other involvement between the two parties. The break is cleaner than anything else. That's it. If I am not comfortable, then I am not purely myself. Are you going to find fault for yourself?"
He sighed again, "Compared to you and the second girl of the Lu family who has no fate, I care more about Uncle Lu. This uncle has a kind temper and is really a sweetheart. My father-in-law had a good relationship with Uncle Lu before. You saw the right person..."
