After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields Chapter 761

The great Confucian scholar Gong Liangxuan died in his sleep.

Died at the age of sixty-six.

But until the old man's funeral was set up, Qin Yao's family of eight still had the illusion that the person was still alive, but that his body had been put in the coffin.

Sad?

Can't feel sad at all.

I am so busy that my feet hit the back of my head.

Awang urgently took money to find a broker, bought the best ready-made coffin, and went to the outskirts of the city to find a cemetery.

Liu Ji was busy changing the teacher's birthday clothes, writing elegiac couplets, carving inscriptions, and recording his life events.

Qin Yao went to Wang Jin's home and asked the old lady about the funeral, and carefully recorded it for reference.

Yin Le Liu Fei swept away all the white cloth in the cloth shop and took his four children to rush to make mourning clothes.

Because the whole family felt that Gong Liangxiao had so many students and admirers in his life, and after the funeral was held, many people would definitely come to pay their respects.

So this funeral must be held with splendor.

You must prepare enough food, drinks, banquets, mourning clothes, incense, candles, paper, and money.

However, after the mourning hall was set up, not a single student came to the door.

On the other hand, the neighbors, even though they were shocked to learn that Liu Ji was actually a disciple of the great Confucian Gong Liangliao, they all actively came to help.

They only knew that this family paid filial piety to their teacher until his death, and they didn't care about any coup in the court.

Mr. Ding and his whole family came to express their condolences. When he saw Liu Ji, who was wearing linen and mourning, kneeling in front of the funeral and holding the stele and seal carvings, he patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "I express my condolences and accept the change."

The assassination in the arena and the death of King Feng outside the city had already made the people of the capital understand what the emperor and queen meant.

At this time, only an insignificant eighth-grade official like him dared to take the risk to come to express condolences.

Liu Ji concentrated on carving the stele and said without raising his head: "Mr. Ding, go and have a feast. It tastes very good. I'll come when I'm done with my work here."

Mr. Ding: "Okay."

"Oh, by the way." Liu Ji suddenly raised his head and told him, "Don't leave after eating. There will be a troupe coming to sing in the evening."

Mr. Ding looked like an old man looking at his cell phone on the subway, "You also invited a theater troupe?"

Is this how a funeral is done?

How can this make people sad?

With a lot of questions in his head, apart from the neighbors, Mr. Ding and his family, the only guests who came to express their condolences, started a day of eating, drinking and having fun at Gong Liangxiao's funeral.

At midnight, the opera singers were all tired of singing, and the noisy courtyard became slightly quieter.

There was a thunder on the ground, and Lu Xiaofeng got into the mourning hall from nowhere, plopped down on the futon next to her elder brother and knelt down: "Brother, I'm late!"

Liu Ji turned around in surprise, "Brother Feng, why are you here?"

Don't wait for Lu Xiaofeng to answer, and put a stele in his hand into his arms, "You can help the elder brother for a while!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man hurried to the backyard hut.

It's so suffocating him to death!

Lu Xiaofeng, who was still in the hall, was stunned, but there was no need to be so rude, right?

The guests had all dispersed, and they agreed to take turns keeping watch, so everyone in the family went back to their rooms to rest.

The mourning hall was hung with white flags. A huge golden nanmu coffin was placed in the hall. The lid of the coffin had not yet been closed. Gong Liangxuan, dressed in a dark red birthday suit, was lying peacefully inside.

Lu Xiaofeng leaned slightly and could see a bit of clothes.

Right in front of the coffin, surrounded by white flowers tied with paper, there is a boy and a girl in colorful clothes, and there are several mountains of gold and silver.

Under such a situation, the dim light all around and the almost non-existent cold wind could make Lu Xiaofeng break into a cold sweat. However, the stone tablet in his arms was so heavy that he couldn't get up, so he had to kneel in front of the mourning hall and pray secretly - Mr. Gongliang, you and I have no hatred or grudges in our lives, please don't trouble me!

Suddenly, a black shadow fell from above.

Lu Xiaofeng's eyes widened and she slowly turned around to see a woman in white with disheveled hair standing behind her, leaning over and looking at her suspiciously.

Those black and white eyes came up and frightened him so much that he screamed "Ah!"

Qin Yao: “.”

After waiting for the handsome young man in front of him to stop screaming, Qin Yao crossed his arms and asked:

"Who are you? Why are you at my house? Where is Liu Ji?"

Lu Xiaofeng blinks her big eyes and can speak human language!

"My eldest brother has gone to the hut, so I will take his place for a while. I am my eldest brother and my younger brother Lu Xiaofeng. Wait, are you the sister-in-law?" Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up and she asked excitedly.

Qin Yao looked at this stupid young man with clear eyes and nodded, "As expected of brother Liu Ji, Lu Xiaofeng, right? I know you."

Qin Yao stretched out her hand, took his hand and shook it up and down, "Nice to meet you."

Lu Xiaofeng was completely flattered, and her sister-in-law shook his hand!

Qin Yao picked up the candlestick in front of the coffin and replaced the almost burned out lotus lanterns around the coffin.

While busy, he asked Lu Xiaofeng: "It's already curfew, how did you get in?"

Lu Xiaofeng chuckled and said sheepishly: "Um, I got in through a dog hole."

Afraid that Qin Yao would not be able to imagine it, Lu Xiaofeng emphasized specifically, "It's the wall on the east side of the archway of your Kuanzhengfang. There is a wheelbarrow under the wall. Move the car away, and there will be a dog hole underneath. If you climb in, you can directly enter Kuanzhengfang. It's official!”

He is awesome~

There are no dog holes in the capital that he doesn't know about!

Qin Yao was speechless.

When all the lotus lanterns were replaced, Liu Ji finally came back.

“Madam, why don't you sleep more?” Liu Ji asked in surprise.

Qin Yao put down the candlestick in her hand and replied, "I can't sleep. There will be a funeral tomorrow morning. Please stay with the old man for a while."

Liu Ji saw Qin Yao's hard work in the past few days and was afraid that she was too tired, so he advised:

"Brother Feng and I are here. It's okay. Madam, please go and have a rest. I'll call you in the morning."

Qin Yao waved her hands, found a futon for herself, and knelt down in front of the mourning hall with the two of them. She took out the paper money, rubbed it out one by one, and put it into a basin to burn.

Lu Xiaofeng was in high spirits, "I'll come too, I'll come too!"

The three of them had a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned whether anyone would come to pay homage to the funeral tomorrow.

Because there is a high probability that there is not.

Lu Xiaofeng originally planned to spend the last night with her eldest brother before leaving tonight.

But now he decided to disguise himself as a servant of his eldest brother and sister-in-law's family, and carry out the funeral for Gongliang together.

The sky is getting brighter.

The mages invited by Qin Yao came over from the guest courtyard and began the final coffin sealing ceremony.

Liu Ji, who had always been good, suddenly realized that he would never see his teacher again at the moment when the coffin lid was about to close, and burst into tears.

Lu Xiaofeng saw her eldest brother crying, and he couldn't help crying either. The two of them threw themselves on the coffin, preventing it from being sealed.

The mages tried to persuade and pull at the same time. The scene really made those who heard it cry and those who saw it were sad.

The four Dalang brothers and sisters, who were all fine at first, also started to cry.

At the end, the whole courtyard was full of crying. Passers-by knew it was a dead person and stopped to pay attention, feeling that the descendants of this family were the most pure and filial people.

The crying continued until the coffin was sealed and carried out. (End of chapter)
