An impatient middle-aged man's face appeared in my sight.
"What's the matter with you? Didn't you say that you have to get up at five o'clock?" This person is the housekeeper of the Chai family who sent me here last night. He has a square face and looks mean and defensive. .
I rolled out of bed and put on my shoes.
He threw a set of coarse linen clothes at me and asked me to put them on with a more impatient tone. I hurriedly followed him to the front yard. The funeral procession was all ready, and I was the only one who jumped in. Even though I was a distant relative of the family head, he could still get me out despite his procrastination.
I didn't argue with him, I still kept the expression I had learned from Yang Xiayuan.
Putting on the linen clothes, the hat on the back is also placed on the head.
It took only two minutes for him to follow him out of the door, and he muttered something: "You have a cold face so early in the morning, are you afraid that the Chai family won't hold more funerals?"
I was dumbfounded and still felt a little helpless.
I immediately understood that the reason why this housekeeper was so merciless was probably due to my facial appearance and eyesight.
Not long after, I returned to the front yard under his leadership.
While walking, I also carefully recalled what happened last night. My neck still hurt a little. I took out my phone and used it as a mirror to look at it, but I didn't see any traces.
Soon we arrived at the front yard.
It was past five o'clock, and the sky was still covered in black, with only the horizon gradually starting to turn white.
On both sides of the main room, there were many people wearing the same clothes as me.
Two coffins are placed in the main room, the incense is strong, and the paper is burning with flames rising high.
The white coffin was still open at this moment. I took a look and saw a female corpse lying in it.
The childish face gave me a strong sense of familiarity.
I was suddenly startled.
At the same time, the butler took me to the end of the group and asked me to stand here properly.
Immediately afterwards, he called over another man who was also wearing linen clothes and seemed to be slightly more imposing.
The two said a few words briefly, and I probably understood that he was the leader of the mourning team.
The butler asked him to arrange something for me and not just stand there.
The man handed me a gong and asked me to follow the team and just start beating the gong.
After saying that, the housekeeper left, and the man didn't ask me much, and walked to the front of the funeral procession.
But from this angle, I couldn't see the female body in the coffin.
There was a bit of indescribable depression in my heart.
Whether it was a dream last night or some other reason, did this female corpse accidentally land on my bed?
It's certainly not that simple.
More importantly, they arrived earlier than Chai Yu said.
I'm afraid she was brought here not long after Liu Wensan and Chen Xiazi entered the coffin, and after I left...
Li Dexian was really careful in his work, and it was beyond people's expectations. If we had delayed a little longer, we might have met the person who delivered the body to him.
The red coffin was still the same as last night.
There is a man standing in front of the white coffin. He is wearing a Taoist robe and has a tall figure.
There were also some men outside the house. They were wearing common clothes, with robupa wrapped around their waists, and red and white cloth hats on their heads. Some were carrying dragon poles.
I have seen the same attire on the Wang family fools. These are obviously coffin bearers.
The Chai family's funeral was a big one, and I don't know if it was a bargaining chip used by Li Dexian to collect money.
The more important the funeral, the more money can be obtained.
I calmly looked at everything clearly, and I really didn't find Li Dexian.
The man in the monk's robe seemed a bit familiar to me.
At this moment, the curtain on the side of the hall was opened, and Chai Yu walked out slowly.
The man turned his head, shook Chai Yu's hand, and called Mr. Chai.
Chai Yu didn't even look at me, and he shook hands with the man.
The man's voice was very familiar, and looking at his profile, wasn't it Gu Tianliang! ?
I remember clearly how Gu Tianliang insulted me and labeled me at that time.
I will never forget his voice in my life!
Unexpectedly, Li Dexian would let him come out directly.
What I didn't expect even more was what he was wearing. Did Li Dexian teach Gu Tianliang something?
"Master Chai, this woman is just over sixteen. The other information is the same as what was said before. If you are satisfied, I will order someone to cover the coffin."
"Mr. Li has given me the funeral schedule. It just so happens that the time is coming soon. We need to ask the coffin bearers to carry the coffin on the road. Mr. Li has also ordered the cemetery. Let's dig the grave, open the altar, and wait for dark before we can get married." Gu Tianliang changed his previous arrogant appearance as the eldest young master of the Gu family, and his aura revealed a bit of humility.
There is a saying that states are easy to change, but nature is hard to change. Even if he hides it like this, I still know his underlying nature.
On the contrary, I feel a little certain in my heart.
Gu Tianliang is also here, so we can kill two birds with one stone this time. Neither he nor Li Dexian can escape!
Chai Yu turned to look inside the coffin, nodded and said, "Of course there is no problem. This girl is pretty and of the right age. As long as Mr. Li and Mr. Li confirm that she is suitable for my son's horoscope."
"That's inevitable. She is the candidate that I spent a lot of effort to find. She is a perfect match for Master Chai."
"And she is still born in the earth. Today is her sixteenth birthday. She is born in February. The Yifu family can bring wealth to the Chai family for fifty years!" Gu Tianliang said in a cheerful tone.
In their conversation, I also heard that Gu Tianliang changed his surname? Just named Li?
Chai Yu squinted his eyes and nodded: "In that case, it's all up to Mr. Li's arrangement."
Gu Tianliang raised his hand and shouted: "Consul, lead the Eight Immortals to cover the coffin."
At the same time, he also took out a piece of paper in his hand, and wrote a long sentence on it. He did not use the paper immediately, but held it between his fingers and put his hands behind his back.
As the coffin bearers entered the main room, he coughed, cleared his throat and shouted: "The sun is auspicious and the heaven and earth are open. When the coffin is built, it will be auspicious and make a fortune. The sky is clear and the earth is bright. The sun and the moon are bright. The children who are building the coffin will be wealthy!"
"A blessing from heaven!"
Several coffin bearers directly lifted the lid of the white coffin and put it on the coffin!
I was extremely surprised. This Gu Tianliang really knew how to deal with the goddess.
Blind man Chen also taught me these things. This is the coffin-sealing formula of the goddess, and he still used the second formula.
Li Dexian is by no means an ordinary Feng Shui master. He is even proficient in the ways of the Goddess, so you have to be more careful when dealing with him.
The coffin is about to be closed.
Suddenly there was a muffled buzzing sound, and the entire coffin lid suddenly flew up and hit Gu Tianliang!
At the same time, the female corpse in the coffin actually stood up.
This scene shocked the people attending the funeral procession nearby, and Chai Yu was also frightened.
My expression also changed because she was looking at me!
