Xie Wanyu always found it hard to imagine.
After all, Xiao Jing lived a happy life in her previous life. It was impossible for her to die at such a young age. She was thinking that maybe everything was changing, so Xiao Jing's death time also changed. .
I always felt that it wouldn't change so much, but the facts are right in front of me.
Just when Xie Wanyu was wondering, Zhufang stepped forward and said, "Madam, please forgive me." She said sadly.
The huge Hou Mansion was already in turmoil, and it was all maintained by Xiao Jing. Now that Xiao Jing has passed away and the children are so young, the future life will probably be very sad. Zhu Fang feels that her master is really pitiful.
Soon after, Xiao Jing's coffin was brought back.
I heard that the people inside could not be identified as human beings at all.
For this man, Xie Wanyu didn't feel sad at all. Recalling that they had never been in love in the past, if he hadn't made a mistake and gave birth to such a child with Xue Xuening, Xie Wanyu would not have died tragically.
In other words, Xiao Jing is the culprit of everything.
Xie Wanyu's plan to return to Panyun Mountain early failed because she had to take care of Xiao Jing's marriage.
After Mrs. Xiao learned that Xiao Jing had passed away, she became ill. She cried all day long and called her grandson's name in her dreams.
Xue Xuening, as for Xue Xuening, was also quite defeated, but she still knew that she and Xiao Jinmin were waiting in front of the old lady's bed. It couldn't be said that she was crying, but it was almost the same.
Xiao Mingxuan and Xiao Zhi stayed in front of the funeral to deal with the guests who came to express their condolences.
Xie Wanyu was dressed in white and had a white velvet flower on her head. After all, the deceased was the most important person. This could be regarded as the end of the relationship between her and Xiao Jing for so many years.
"Madam." Zhu Fang called out.
Xie Wanyu came to her senses and returned the greeting to the guests who came to express their condolences, "My condolences, madam."
Unexpectedly, Mr. Li also came. He had not always had a close relationship with the Hou Mansion, but it was because of Xie Wanyu's righteous speech that day that he came over early.
"Thank you, Mr. Li." Xie Wanyu nodded and said.
Mr. Li did not leave immediately. Instead, he brought a few people to help with the preparations and to welcome the guests. He probably also took Xie Wanyu's reputation into consideration, so the people he brought were all female relatives.
Xie Wanyu wasn't that tired anymore. After that, the Xie family brought people over to help, and Master Li left with them.
It was already the end of the New Year, but I didn’t expect that the snow had gotten heavier in the past few days.
It was getting late, but Xiao Zhi and Xiao Mingxuan were still kneeling there.
Zhufang lit a candle on the side, "You two young masters, why don't you guys stay here in shifts? It's windy and cold at night, so you don't get sick."
"I'll just keep watch, Xiao Zhi, you go back." Xiao Mingxuan said, "After all, the person lying here is not your biological father, and he is not very good to you."
His voice was calm and what he said was reasonable.
Xiao Zhi really didn't have any feelings for Xiao Jing, but he was considered sensible and said solemnly, "That being said, I am his adopted son after all, and I will do whatever I need to do to prevent my mother from being criticized in the future."
He always thinks about Xie Wanyu.
Seeing them like this, Xie Wanyu asked someone to add two charcoal stoves for them, and then went to Tai'an Hall to see Mrs. Xiao.
In Tai'an Hall, the strong smell of medicine spread out.
Mrs. Xiao was lying on the bed, her head tied with a forehead wiper, and her whole body was sick.
A pair of eyes were bloodshot.
"Grandma, please don't cry anymore. The Hou Mansion is now supported by you. If you have a problem, how can we live?" Xue Xuening comforted softly.
Mrs. Xiao looked at the charcoal stove with distracted eyes and said nothing.
Xue Xuening couldn't help but add some force, "Grandma, even if you don't look at others, you should look at Min'er. That is your great-grandson. These days, he has been waiting in front of the bed, and he has lost a lot of weight."
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but look at Xiao Jinmin who was sitting there and yawning.
His plump face was full of sleepiness.
"I know, I can't fall down. I always have to keep the Marquis Mansion up for the sake of my children." Mrs. Xiao said, wiping away tears again, "It's a pity, I'm old, old ”
She said weakly.
Xiao Yinshuang, who was sitting aside, said at this time, "Grandma, there is me, and besides, there is Jieshu."
Jieshu and his concubine lived a very comfortable life outside. Now, within a few days of his return, he had taken care of Xiao Yinshuang and made her obedient again.
Mrs. Xiao looked at her granddaughter lovingly, but when she saw Jieshu, her face was full of disgust. In her eyes, Jieshu was just a freeloader.
Therefore, she couldn't help but snorted.
Jieshu shook his head helplessly, "Shuang'er, the old lady doesn't like me. I'll go out and boil medicine for her."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Xiao Yinshuang stopped him, "No, grandma just didn't see the good in you."
Xie Wanyu listened at the door for a while before walking in. She walked slowly to the bed, and then nodded slightly to Mrs. Xiao, "Brother Xuan is guarding the funeral now. He has never had a good night's sleep." Sleeping."
Everyone is here to take credit, but they don't know how tired she is from organizing the funeral.
Madam Xiao originally focused all her attention on Xiao Jinmin, but when she heard what Xie Wanyu said, she realized and her eyes turned red, "My brother Xuan, why can't I see him? This child is so filial."
After saying that, she started crying again.
"Don't cry. There will be a funeral tomorrow. Those who come here to help will always need you to come forward. No matter what the food is, they will always have a meal." Xie Wanyu said calmly.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but nodded, "You are right."
Xie Wanyu is good at everything, but after waking up from a nap, she suddenly becomes very strong.
Xue Xuening no longer needs to think about escaping to Northern Xinjiang. After all, Xiao Jing is no longer here, and Xie Wanyu has no use value in front of her. Instead, it has become a stumbling block. "Master Hou passed away, and we are all very sad. You are so hard-hearted that you actually There is no trace of sadness on his face."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Xie Wanyu.
I saw that Xie Wanyu's face was pale. Except for her face, which was a little ugly, there was no sadness in other places.
Xie Wanyu glanced sideways at Xue Xuening, "I am grieving, I am sad, and I also stay by the old lady's bed to fulfill my filial piety. Are you here to handle the funeral? Are you here to receive the guests?"
Her series of rhetorical questions left Xue Xuening speechless.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xiao spoke to Xie Wanyu uncharacteristically, "What Wanyu said is not unreasonable. I am useless. She is in charge of the whole family. If you can't stand it, go and help. "
"I, this." Xue Xuening immediately closed her mouth.
She didn't want to go to the funeral. She knew how cold the mourning hall was. After a while, she said, "Grandma, I'm worried about your health. If I leave like this, who will serve you?"
"That's right, great-grandmother." Xiao Jinmin agreed.
