Chapter 306
“Shang Yuan,”
“Since that’s the case, does old fifth not want to live anymore?” Yang qianhuan was taken aback.
“It’s time for her to advance.” The supervisor said meaningfully.
........
Xu Manor.
A white soul-beckoning banner was hung on the plaque of the gate, and the Red Lanterns were replaced with white lanterns.
After receiving the compensation, the Xu estate began to arrange the funeral. However, they did not know the exact time when the eldest son’s body would be sent back to the capital, as the people in the estate had not yet put on their mourning clothes.
These few days, the atmosphere in the residence was very heavy. The old master became silent, the madam shed tears from time to time, and the Erlang pretended to be calm, but was often in a daze. Miss lingyue lost all her energy. Miss lingying’s face was so thin that it looked like an oval.
In the first two days, the little boy often woke up crying in the middle of the night, shouting that he wanted to find yang.
A child’s world was very small, with only a few family members. Suddenly losing one would make the world incomplete.
This morning, the Xu family finally received eldest brother’s corpse. He was lying in a coffin and was transported back to the Xu family estate on a cart.
When Xu Pingzhi received the news, he rushed out of the door like a madman. But when he saw the coffin on the cart, he suddenly didn’t dare to go forward.
Xu Pingzhi walked to the coffin, stretched out his hand, and pressed on the lid of the coffin ...
Tong Gong, who was in charge of sending the bones, looked at him and said in a low voice, “”Lord Xu, let’s talk inside the residence.”
Xu Pingzhi suddenly came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and said,”yes.”
Once they saw eldest brother’s corpse, the family would probably not be able to take it and cry at the main gate. It would be disgraceful for both the living and the dead.
The coffin was sent to the mourning hall, and the atmosphere here made the watchman feel a little suffocated. Unwilling to stay any longer, he cupped his fists and said, “”Lord Xu, this one will take his leave first.”
“I won’t be seeing you out,” Xu Pingzhi replied hoarsely.
In the mourning hall, his aunt, Erlang, Xu lingyue, and her sister were all silently watching the coffin. No one made a sound, as if they were waiting for something.
Xu Pingzhi knew that as the head of the family, there were some things he had to do. For example, facing his nephew’s corpse and the surging sorrow.
The coffin was slowly pushed open. Xu Qi ‘an was lying in the coffin. His skin was dry and lusterless, and his lips had lost their color.
He had been dead for a long time.
The tiny bit of hope in their hearts shattered. Even though they had already mentally prepared themselves, at this moment, the surging sadness still engulfed the entire family.
His aunt and Xu lingyue held onto the coffin and cried loudly. Second uncle Xu could not stand still and his lips were trembling. Xu Erlang turned his head away, not looking at his elder brother’s face. He clenched his fists in his sleeves, his knuckles turning white.
Xu lingying’s small body leaned forward slightly, and she stuck her head out. She opened her hands behind her back and cried out at the coffin.
It was so noisy ... Who the hell is disturbing my sleep ... Xu Qian said.
‘I should be home ...’ Was this auntie’s cry? Ha, Auntie is actually crying for me? Her catchphrase was,”Xu ningyan, you brat, you’re my enemy in my previous life, and I’m going to collect my debt in this life ...”
It was as if he was floating in the boundless void, unable to reach the heavens or the earth, with no one to rely on. There was only the sound of crying in her ears.
‘I should be home ...’ Was this auntie’s cry? Ha, Auntie is actually crying for me? Her catchphrase was,”Xu ningyan, you brat, you’re my enemy in my previous life, and I’m going to collect my debt in this life ...” Xu Qi ‘an thought in a daze.
He could tell that his aunt and two younger sisters were crying.
The crying continued for a long time, and then it turned into a choking, sobbing.
Time passed, and the sky turned dark.
This was what Xu Qi ‘an had learned from the conversation between second uncle and second lang.
The relatives and friends of the Xu family would only be able to come and pay their respects to Xu dalang’s deceased appearance tomorrow. Tonight, it was his family’s funeral.
‘Tomorrow, the whole village will come to my house for dinner ...’ Huaiqing and Lin ‘an are princesses. It’s not convenient with their status, so they probably can’t come ... Caiwei will definitely come. If she doesn’t come, then I’ll get a divorce when I wake up ... Would Fu Xiang come?
This should be the second time I died. The first time was from alcohol poisoning ... D * mn, his 120GB wife didn’t delete it. Just thinking about it made him feel awkward ... Fortunately, there were no computers and mobile phones in this world. Oh, there were brothels and teaching workshops in this world, so a hard disk was useless for his wife.
‘Tomorrow, the whole village will come to my house for dinner ...’ Huaiqing and Lin ‘an are princesses. It’s not convenient with their status, so they probably can’t come ... Caiwei will definitely come. If she doesn’t come, then I’ll get a divorce when I wake up ... Would Fu Xiang come? Oh, she probably doesn’t know about my ‘death’ yet.
“Mother, you should go back to your room and rest first. Second brother and I will stay here to watch over big brother’s funeral.” Xu lingyue’s sobbing voice.
“Your big brother has been floating on the river for so long. Now that he’s home, we can’t let him be alone anymore.” Mother is fine, mother will guard here.
“When your father gave him to me, he was only the size of a palm. I didn’t have any experience in taking care of children. Your father is a big soldier and doesn’t have much money. He can’t afford to hire a wet nurse. I’ll cook goat’s milk for him to drink and take care of him every day ...”
As she said this, her aunt felt sad.
Xu Qi ‘an suddenly realized that his aunt actually loved him, even though the two of them had a very stiff and unpleasant relationship.
Xu Qi ‘an was touched.
“The older he gets, the more annoying he becomes. Among the three of you, he’s the ugliest and the most mischievous. Whenever I show concern for you and Erlang, he’ll be jealous and think that I’m not good to him, that he’s a Motherless Child ...”
“You don’t have to say anymore.” Second uncle Xu said angrily.
“Why can’t I say it?” Her aunt shrieked, ” I’ve brought him up, and he’s gone just like that. If I had known, I would have raised a rat.
He started wailing.
“Master, Madam.” The gatekeeper, old Zhang, rushed over and stood outside the mourning hall.”There’s a girl outside, saying that she’s going to keep watch for eldest brother.”
Who was it?
This doubt flashed across Xu Qian’s mind, as well as second uncle and aunty’s.
