Our Mommy is the Best Investigator! Chapter 142

Chapter 142 Little Treasures' Concerns

After nightfall, Liu Shuyang, Chu Nanzhu and his wife had to follow the Taoist priests, and the burden of taking care of Xiao Muci fell on Chu Nanzhi. She went to the kitchen to bring some porridge and pickles, and led the quadruplets and Xiao Mu to leave the building. Go to the wing room for dinner.

After drinking the bland porridge for a whole day, Erbao Lin Ruixi couldn't finish it, so she said weakly to Chu Nanzhi, "Aniang, I want to eat meat."

It is the first time for the quadruplets to see their relatives pass away, and they don't understand the etiquette and customs. Whenever there is a funeral in the village, the main family will only wrap their stomachs with plain porridge for three consecutive days.

Although Chu Wenyu is only a cousin, his only heir is a traitor, and his only wish in life is to see the Chu family prosper, so keeping his filial piety can only fall on these nieces and grandchildren. .

She took Erbao's little hand and patiently explained to the little ones: "Don't you all think that grandpa is a good person? The ones he loved the most during his lifetime were Auntie and you two aunts. You are all mother's good sons." Darling, let's take it as a filial piety for my mother and aunts, and feel wronged for a while, and then my mother will give you meat after the seven-day filial piety, okay?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Dabao and Sanbao took up the porridge and obediently drank it, while Sibao sensiblely went to feed Xiao Muci.

Seeing this, Er Bao's dissatisfaction gradually disappeared, and then he also drank the porridge in silence.

Lin Jinxiao came up on crutches, and was very pleased to see that the quadruplets were eating obediently. He sat next to Chu Nanzhi, quietly and secretly looked at her for a while, and for some reason, the more she looked at her, the more pleasing to the eye.

After pondering for a long time, he suddenly said: "I discussed with Shu Yang, I will come to watch the night with him in the first half of the night today, and you three sisters are also tired all day, we will go down after the rest meeting in the middle of the night."

Chu Nanzhi was indeed too sleepy. After staying up for a day and a night, she was in a daze, but she looked at his legs and felt a little worried. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Jinxiao blocked her back forcefully: "lou I have my father-in-law and mother-in-law here, so you don't have to worry, it's only a few hours, I can hold it."

Seeing him getting up to leave, Chu Nanzhi recalled his fluctuating mood these past two days, like a jealous jar, after deliberating for a moment, she still tactfully expressed her worries: "Brother Wei is getting married soon. Now, why do you compete with him all day long?"

"Don't be suspicious all day long, I don't have that kind of thought."

Lin Jinxiao replied with a solemn expression. She saw through her own thoughts, but her heart began to be messy, so she forced herself to be calm and hurried downstairs.

Chu Nanzhi watched the aloof figure slowly disappear in front of her eyes, with a very helpless expression:

Who is suspicious?

Grandma has a leg, this shouldn't be my old lady's lines.

Now she is the one who is paranoid, which is really unreasonable.

The little Sibao Lin Ruijia fed Xiao Muci half a bowl of porridge, but the little guy snatched the bowl by himself and drank it "bajibaji". Sibao looked happy, and brought another bowl of porridge to him who was still in a daze. Chu Nanzhi stood in front of her, looking at her with small black eyes, and said with concern: "Mother, you also drink porridge, and sleep with us after drinking the porridge."

The soft voice sounds heart-warming, but it sounds like a commanding tone.

Chu Nanzhi came back to her senses, looked at the charming little Sibao, took the porridge, patted her little head lightly, and said in a friendly voice: "Okay, Auntie will accompany you to drink the porridge."

Sanbao Lin Ruichong put some pickled vegetables into the bowl for her. Seeing her haggard face, he couldn't help but care and said: "Mother, my brother and I can go to watch the night with father and grandma. If you are tired, you can Would you like to sleep with your sister and sister?"

Chu Nanzhi drank a few sips of porridge, looked at Dabao and Sanbao's earnest eyes, and replied emotionally: "You can just lie down for a while, you are growing up now, you can't keep watch at night, you need to take good care of yourself in the next two days." Make up your mind, and wait until the eve of the funeral, and then Auntie will let you go to watch with grandma and grandpa."

"Then Aunt, you can go to bed now, we will be obedient, and we will go to bed after eating the porridge."

Sambo began to urge.

"it is good."

Chu Nanzhi drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, lay down on the bed under the supervision of a few little fellows, and quietly closed her eyes.

The neighbors downstairs who came to help have dispersed one after another, only the sound of Taoist priests reciting scriptures and knocking on ritual instruments can be heard continuously.

Thinking about the reason why Chu Wenyu took poison, and then thinking about the funeral, although she closed her eyes, she seemed to lose sleepiness.

Today, thanks to the Taoist priests from Nanhua Temple, and the Shen family coming to support the situation, otherwise the clansmen would betray and the neighbors would be ungrateful for profit, then this funeral would indeed be ridiculed.

Moreover, she also heard today that many members of the Lin family have gone to the Qi family, which is really chilling.

Thinking of Lin Jinxiao's life experience, she suddenly felt a little sympathetic to this guy.

After guessing wildly in her mind for a while, the little ones who didn't realize it all clung to her side. The warm feeling made her gradually feel sleepy, and finally fell asleep after brewing for a while.

At night, she was awakened by the sound of chanting downstairs, she opened her eyes and looked around, and saw the quadruplets and Xiao Muci were sleeping soundly on top of each other, she hurriedly got up lightly, and put the little ones He straightened his body one by one, and then went downstairs quietly.

In the mourning hall, Liu Shuyang held a small white banner and followed the Taoist priests around the coffin, looking listless.

On both sides of the coffin sat Liu Yun and his wife, Lin Jinxiao, Li Ce, and several clan elders who did not want to leave.

Seeing Chu Nanzhi's figure, Lin Jinxiao squinted at Li Sanlang, who was dozing on his body, and patted the vacant place next to him helplessly.

Chu Nanzhi first lit a stick of incense and inserted it into the grain bucket, bowed before the spirit, and then sat down beside Lin Jinxiao.

Seeing that she was much more energetic at this moment, Lin Jinxiao unconsciously showed a look of relief in his eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Are all the little treasures asleep?"

"Um."

Chu Nanzhi glanced over: "You also go up and rest for a while."

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Jinxiao responded flatly: "My aunts and Mrs. Saburo just went up, let them rest for a while, I will accompany you here."

Seeing that he insisted on this, Chu Nanzhi couldn't force it anymore, so she followed his will.

Looking at the exhausted Liu Yun and Chu Wenbi couple, Chu Nanzhi said with some distress: "Father, mother, you and the clan elders go upstairs to rest for a while, I will take care of you here."

The couple shook their heads sadly, Chu Wenbi looked at the dark coffin with dull eyes, and replied very lonely: "Let me stay here with your uncle more."

Several clan elders just shook their heads dejectedly, without saying a word.

The reason why they stayed was not because of how sad the sudden death of their nephew was, but because they felt that the people of the clan were lax and felt rather chilled.

What happened today made them, the elders of the clan, very ashamed.
