Fight the Giants Chapter 650

Chapter 650 funeral

After dawn, Zhang Fu learned the news of Wu's death.

Did not speak, silent for a while. Then he said to Zhang Jin, "I'll go see her."

When Zhang Fu arrived, the maid had already helped to collect the funeral.

There was no need for them to work hard, Wu Shi had already cleaned herself up, and the servants just moved her to the mat on the ground, and covered her face with a white cloth.

After Zhang Fu arrived, he squatted down beside her, lifted the white cloth and looked at her quietly.

Afterwards, cover her again.

"Let's report the funeral to the mansion."

"yes."

Huo Xi soon got the news.

Glancing at the second servant who was waiting for her order, he said, "You go back to the second aunt, and let her discuss it with Mrs. Tai. I have no objection."

"Yes. The Duke of the State means that the Wu family suffered from a serious illness and died suddenly. He will not be moved back to the mansion. He will be buried directly in the temple, and there will be no mourning hall in the mansion."

If there is no mourning hall in the mansion, we cannot accept condolences from other mansions. This is a bit embarrassing to Concubine Zhang.

But if there is a mourning hall in the mansion, she and Nian'er have to be filial sons, burning paper money for Wu's wake day and night. If they don't go, she doesn't care, Nian'er is afraid that people will criticize her.

That's why Zhang Fu brought Mrs. Wu to Plum Blossom Mountain?

Huo Xi's eyes flashed, and he said: "Just do what your father says. The son and I will follow the arrangement of my father and Mrs. Tai."

"Yes. The servant girl will report back to the second lady."

Huo Xi thought for a while, then ordered Zhui Feng to go to the Imperial College to bring Nian'er back. No matter what, the appearance still needs to be done, and Nian'er can't be criticized by others.

The British government reported the funeral to all the prefectures in the capital. Wu's sudden death stunned everyone.

After all, she rarely even suffers from minor illnesses and pains, so how could she suddenly have a serious illness?

The Duke of England just fell into a coma a few days ago. Seeing that he has recovered, why did the Duke and his wife die suddenly?

Everyone talked a lot.

The British government has committed some kind of Tai Sui, and things have been going on in the past six months. Let the people in the capital watch round after round of excitement. We have just welcomed back our son, why is the Duke and his wife gone?

There is an inside story! Definitely has the inside story.

Those who knew something inside shook their heads and sighed. He even kept a close eye on the door in case there was a fire in his own backyard.

Huo Erhuai and Yang Shi also received a funeral report from the Duke's mansion, and the husband and wife hurried over to see their two children.

"Wu is really dead?"

Huo Xi nodded.

"Ouch, God bless!"

Ms. Yang clasped her hands together, and thanked the gods of the four directions, "I thought the Duke would let her go again. Your father and I can't sleep at night as long as we think of her tricks."

Worried about the safety of the two children, I didn't sleep for a few full nights.

Huo Erhuai caressed Nian'er who was sitting next to him, with a look of relief: "You have finally avenged your mother. After Nian'er, we can live in peace."

"Yes, your mother is really miserable..." Yang shook her head and sighed, "However, since Wu is gone, Zhang Biyao is in the Prince's Mansion, will he take revenge on you?"

Mr. Yang couldn't sit still anymore.

"It's okay, mother," Huo Xi comforted her, "Baguio is in the East Palace, so he can't come out often. Besides, I'm not afraid of their revenge."

"You still have to be careful, don't be careless."

"I know, don't worry, parents. By the way, have grandma and grandpa gone back?"

"I went back a few days ago. Your grandpa couldn't stay in the mansion, and he missed the land at home, but your grandma and fourth uncle refused to go back, and kept avoiding your grandpa. Your father left them to stay in the mansion for a few more days." I bought a lot of things and gave them some silver before sending them back. But I think your grandma is like that, so I'm afraid I'll come here more often in the future.”

Mr. Yang pouted.

Their family is fine, who patiently waits for a mother-in-law. If she is a sensible mother-in-law, of course she is willing to serve her, but is Fang the kind of reasonable person?

Huo Erhuai lowered his head and did not speak.

Huo Xi saw her mother's angry face, and she was still muttering about her dissatisfaction, talking about how their mother and son manipulated her in the mansion...I thought it was a little funny.

Winked at her, told her to look at her father, and stopped Yang Shi from continuing to chatter.

Yang glanced at the man, not wanting to embarrass him in front of the child, so he stopped talking.

"Mother, grandparents can live if they want to live. When the time comes, you will live in the big house given by my father, and let them live in this house now." Huo Nian ran to hug Yang Shi and said.

"Oh, my son, I dare not think so. If your grandma comes, the whole family will follow."

Mr. Yang hugged Nian'er, speaking in a soft voice.

"It's not that mother is reluctant to part with the little money and doesn't want to support them. It's just that they will be coaxed by others like last time and do something wrong to your siblings. My son, the human heart is the hardest to guard against. When people are poor, except There are no other troubles when you are poor, but when you become rich suddenly, troubles follow. And they don't have the ability to solve troubles, and if they are led by the nose, won't they be troublesome for you?"

Huo Xi smiled and said to Huo Erhuai: "It's still my mother who can see clearly."

Huo Erhuai was a little embarrassed, "These fathers understand, and in the future, father will restrain them well."

"Father will restrain the juniors under him more in the future. If they are promising, father will support them more. When they get well, the family will also get better."

"Okay, Dad listens to you. Your third uncle's two sons are considered promising now, and the others, Dad will have to look again."

"Yes." Huo Xi nodded.

"Grandma can also come to live in the capital once in a while. How about I pay grandma to see if there is a Zhuangzi near Huojiaba? Buy one or two servants to serve them, and let them collect rent on a daily basis. Well, let's share the family's fields with Uncle and Uncle.”

"You don't need to pay, Dad has it." Huo Erhuai waved his hand straight.

"Besides, the Duke's Mansion has given me a lot this time. If your grandfather wants to buy more land, let him do it. The family is better now, and they don't have to go to the fields themselves. It's just that your grandfather can't stay idle. He is in the capital. live, I'm at a loss."

After talking with the two children for a while, seeing that they were doing well, Huo Erhuai and Yang Shi also went back.

There is no mourning hall in the British government, so the government only sent servants or juniors to greet them.

On the same day, funeral banners were hung at the gate of the mansion and everywhere in the mansion, and the next day, the mansion closed its doors to thank the guests.

As soon as the sky dawned, Zhang Zhangfu set off for Meihua Mountain with his family members. No matter how Wu Shi died, for the sake of the family, it can only be said that she died of illness.

The juniors have to watch the spirit. The second-bedroom and third-bedroom families still have to go to offer their condolences.

Huo Xi and Huo Nian also left the mansion and went to Plum Blossom Mountain together.

But not to mourn Wu, Wu is not worthy.

Lingyun Temple set up a mourning hall. Zhang Biyao and Zhang Xie, who arrived a day earlier, wore mourning clothes, burned paper in a copper basin, and cried until their eyes were red. Everyone came forward to worship one by one, only Huo Xi and Huo Nian were missing.
