Chapter 441 Funeral 1
Later, I told her in detail the reason why I wanted to leave. The general meaning was that I was tired of such days, but I kept silent about the two Gods. Later, she also asked about the identity of the person who came with me, and only had to hide the identity of that person. She said that she was once a friend, and she obviously didn't believe this reason. I am now in my thirties, and the person I was in my twenties, how could she be my friend? And how could she not know who I have, and naturally she wouldn't believe it. But she didn't look at the bottom of it.
After a beautiful sleep, Jing'er woke up and found that she was actually in Cuiyunju. She was shocked and asked the reason quickly. I could only say that she was too tired last night and fell asleep leaning against me. I couldn't find a place, so I could only send her to Cuiyunju. She was half-believing about my words, but she could never remember what happened last night.
Fortunately, my family sent someone to find me. I didn't go back very late last night, and the people at home were very anxious. Now that the old man passed away, I am the backbone of the family. If something happens to me, the Deng family doesn't know what to do. Just when my second uncle and his friends were going to send someone to find me, the people sent by Murong Sanniang arrived at the Deng Mansion, which made them feel at ease. Today is the first day of the old man's death, and the door will be opened to welcome the people's condolences. As the head of the Deng family, I must be present, so I sent someone to pick me up early in the morning.
When I left, I found an opportunity to find the god who followed me. If she wanted her, stay in Cuiyunju and don't follow me. After all, the situation at home was different these days. As soon as the old man left, I brought another person who didn't know where to come, and I didn't dare to say that the person she came from came back to Deng's mansion. How should the people of Shangling look at me, and I also felt that this was very inappropriate.
She was obviously a little reluctant to make arrangements for me. She agreed after I tried to persuade her. However, when I turned around, she disappeared. I was speechless and forgot that others were God, but this God was not very reasonable.
Put her aside for the time being, Jing'er, Murong Sanniang, I hurried back to Deng's mansion.
Although the moonlight last night was good, it suddenly changed in the middle of the night. As soon as I went out today, I found that the sky above Shangling was filled with dark clouds, and wind began to blew between the sky and the earth. The temperature in summer, which should have been very warm, suddenly dropped a lot. The weather seemed very bad.
The old man's death, the heaven and earth are tragic.
Like the Eighth Prince and Old Master Ouyang in front, the sky changed a lot when they died.
Whether with the people or the gods, they all see their actions.
The people are heaven, and the eyes of heaven are the people.
And the entire Shangling world suddenly felt like a sad net was covered with, and the people in the net were the people of the whole city.
Although the weather has become very bad and has not stopped the people from walking. The gate of Deng Mansion has not yet opened, but outside the door, a large number of people have gathered, so that the roads that should be built at the door are crowded with people, and the number of people is still increasing. Many of them were waiting here last night, looking forward to meeting the old man for the last time.
After returning home, the second uncle and the others immediately came to meet him. They felt relieved when they saw that I had nothing to do. The second uncle patted my shoulder and said, "It's good that you come back. Go and change your clothes quickly. There are already many people waiting outside the door!"
I nodded, and then slowly walked to the old man's coffin. The coffin was of good wood, and the old man was lying quietly inside, with a smile on his face, giving people the feeling of falling asleep. These jade artifacts are also placed in the coffin. According to legend, jade artifacts are spiritual objects.
I took out a jade pendant from my neck, which was given to me by the old monk. This jade pendant has been with me for ten years, and now the jade pendant is more shiny than before.
After taking off the jade pendant, I put it in the old man's hand on his chest, and tears couldn't help but leave it out again. Now I can leave it to the old man, this is the only thing I can do.
"alright!"
Uncle II patted my shoulder gently and choked, "Don't be sad, change your clothes!"
I could hear that the feelings in my second uncle's heart were not better than mine.
I nodded, while Feixue took out a piece of clothing and put it on me, while Yingying wrapped a white towel around my head.
After looking back, I didn't see Zhou Ma, Lin Qian and Han Qing, and couldn't help but ask, "Where are the mahjongs?"
"They took a few little guys to their mother's place!"
While helping me sort out the shadow, he replied, "My father's death has a big blow to her. She fainted after waking up last night. When she woke up just now, the lady was afraid that she would not be able to resist, so she took a few little guys to see her and enlighten her casually. At the same time, it is not good for the child to be here today!"
I nodded, gently pulled down the maiyi on my body, and then knelt next to the coffin. As the eldest son of the Deng family, I want to thank you.
The door that had been closed was called, and the people waiting outside also saw the situation in the Deng Mansion: on both sides of the bluestone road leading to the lobby, wreaths were already filled with white elegy couplets. At the door of the lobby, there were a large incense burner on the road, with several high incense sticks burning. In the lobby, there was a mourning hall set up, and the Deng Mansion was kneeling beside them in mourning clothes.
The moment the door opened, a rumbling thunder came from the sky, and today's thunder did not seem deafening as usual, but seemed very low.
There was no escort, nor did the Deng family servants go to maintain the procedures, and no one came to maintain the procedures outside the door, because many of them were waiting outside the door in casual clothes. After the door opened, the people outside did not have any riots, but automatically lined up at the door, and then came in from the door in a row of five people.
Among them were ordinary merchants, some local gentry, local officials, ordinary vendors, farmers, teachers and students from Shangling Academy. Among them were old men supported by their children, and babies held in their arms by their mothers.
In all this, they have no gap in status, no distinction in occupations, and no boundaries of age. Now, they are all ordinary people, coming to mourn a lost soul and remember a great old man.
Shangling's development so fast and such great changes have a close relationship with the Chamber of Commerce. The development of the Chamber of Commerce has promoted the development of the local economy. At the same time, the Chamber of Commerce vigorously built local infrastructure and standardized business continued. In this regard, it attracted a large number of merchants from all over the country to come here. Like the City of Paradise, this is a paradise for merchants. After ten years of development, the scale of the Chamber of Commerce has become the first in the country, but as the top four pyramids of the Chamber of Commerce, the financial resources have increased very limited in the past ten years. The reason is that the four have invested all their financial resources in the construction of Shangling and the operation of the Chamber of Commerce.
The people's eyes are sharp. Everyone knows who treats them well. The ten years of the Chamber of Commerce in Shangling have completely changed the lives of local people. If we must compare them, Shangling ten years ago and Shangling now are like coastal places before the reform and opening up and coastal areas after the reform and opening up.
And the first reason for all this is the four companies.
So after the original Eighth Prince and Old Master Ouyang passed away, just like the old master who had just left, the whole city was filled with sadness.
Apart from the low crying sounds, there was no other sound in the entire Dengfu compound. A group of people outside the door came in, and then someone immediately filled their positions.
The low crying sounds slowly gathered together, and the crying sounds were floating everywhere in Shangling City.
And God seemed to be infected. After a rumbling thunder, rain came in the sky.
Just as the rain fell, it suddenly seemed like a glass cover was installed above the Deng Mansion compound and outside the door, and no drop of rain fell on the waiting people.
A burst of exclamation suddenly erupted among the people. Looking at the wonders in front of them, they couldn't help but shouted words like God's appearance.
Hearing the noise outside, I couldn't help but look around and saw the strange scene outside. While I was surprised, I also knew who was doing it. Sure enough, a low voice came from beside me: "I can't do much, it happens to be what I can do!"
I looked up slightly, and the first pair of barefoots appeared in front of me was a pair of barefoots. When I looked up, I saw the woman also looking at the old man's coffin with a sad face.
When I looked at her, she seemed to feel a sense of emotion and said, "Don't worry, they can't see me, and we also know that you are very respectful to him."
I nodded and ignored her. Now I can see her in time, and I can't do anything about it.
After a riot, the people outside calmed down again. They once again attributed the reason for the wonders of the sky to the old man, so there was a speech among them. The old man was a star from the sky, so the sky had such a scene.
Two things that seem to have no connection are connected by the people, and it is so natural.
Time passed slowly. On the first day, I really couldn't remember how many people had come to worship the old man, but I only knew a lot.
I had to keep a guard at night, so I asked everyone to go to bed, and I was left alone in the entire lobby.
I sat cross-legged on the futon. In front of me was the old man's coffin. Two white candles as thick as arms were beating slightly under the wind blowing at the door.
"What else can I do for you?"
A sudden sound came from beside me.
This sudden sound did not scare me because I knew who was coming!
