Seeking Happiness Chapter 125: Too sad
All the way in, there are tall white lanterns everywhere in Gu’s house, and the servants and maidservants wear filial piety belts around their waists. This atmosphere is depressing, and Shuhuan’s mood becomes heavier before she notices it. Fortunately when she leaves the hospital So they changed into plain clothes. There was no need to return to Mei Pavilion at this time. The deceased was honored. Going to Songhetang to ask for peace could also be delayed. They went straight to the Luoxia Courtyard where Gu Xitian used to live.
The whole courtyard is white, Gu Xitian has stopped at this moment, wearing a shroud, lying lifeless on top of the spirit, his wife Fang is covered in sackcloth, sitting on the side dull, without tears, it looks like Dead in general.
Shu Huan followed Gu Xiran to cry and worship, and through tears, she saw the man lying on the spirit with clean facial features. This was the first time she saw Gu Xitian, Gu's parent, and she deserved to be the brother of Gu Xiran's compatriot. She looked like seven points alike. Somehow she panicked. She was still crying silently with her red eyes because of the effect of chili water, but suddenly she really choked with sobs.
Seeing her crying, the maids in the house also let out their grief. Only Fang, who seemed to be ignorant of everything in front of her, sat still as usual without even lifting her eyelids.
After crying for a while, someone came up to explain, and after a while, Gu Xiran asked: "How did the big brother go?"
Fang's dowry maid, Yingluo, sobbed and shook her head: "The autumn is just over, and the uncle said that he would go out in a hurry. Yesterday, he packed up his things and brought two young men out with the master, but it was noon. Someone cried and came back to report... that the horse that the uncle was riding was frightened for some reason, and then galloped away shortly after going out. When someone caught up, the uncle... fell from the horse and died..." /
Shu Huan was wiping tears, and she was slightly startled when she heard the words. She had guessed the cause of Gu Xitian's death, but she never thought that she died by falling from a horse. It was a bit unexpected.
Gu Xiran frowned and said: "That's it?"
Yingluo nodded, turned her face to wipe her tears.
Gu Xiran pondered for a while, and suddenly said to Fang: "This is the end of the matter, sister-in-law, take care."
Fang’s stubborn, she didn’t even know that someone was talking to her, Yingluo stepped forward and pushed her, she looked up at them blankly, and opened her mouth slightly: "Rope Have you brought it?"
……
Shu Huan couldn't bear to look at the ashen-like expression and empty eyes on her face.
I still remember the plain but warm smile on Fang’s lips two months ago. It was clearly a young worm in the bud, and most of his life to live. But only after a while, that smile was not lost. Furthermore, people are like woods.
Yingluo's tears came down again when she saw Fang's doing this: "My girl has been like this since the uncle's accident... She can't see or hear whoever comes to persuade her..."
Privately, she still kept the old name of Fang's family, but in fact the identity of the girl had left Fang's family a long time ago, and even since yesterday, she has a new identity.
"If only I can cry." Shu Huan sighed in a low voice: "Have she eaten anything?"
Yingluo shook her head: "From yesterday to this meeting, Shuimi has not beaten her teeth."
Hungry like this will not die for the time being, but it will become dehydrated. Shu Huan doesn’t know how to persuade her, so she can only tell Yingluo: "You should adjust the light sugar and salt water first, even if you persuade her to drink some, or make her cry Fortunately, I immediately ask Dr. Ji to come over and see if the sputum is upwelling under the grief."
When something like this happened, the old lady and the Lin family were also in a mess. I didn’t care about the Shang family for the time being. Yingluo, a maid, had lost his mind and had no idea for a long time. Listen to Shu Huan’s assignment at this moment. Nodded and hurriedly sent them out of the hospital.
After seeing Gu Xitian for the last time, according to the rules, he still has to go to the mourning hall to offer incense. Shu Huan and Gu Xiran don’t know the rules here, but fortunately, there is Aunt Yun by the side, and the next person is thinking about it. It seems a bit difficult.
Because Gu Xitian died before he became weak, and there was still nothing under his knees. Moreover, before the day of the mourning, no one was crying and worshipping in the newly established mourning hall. Only Gu Xiren took a few servants and maidservants to watch them in. , The servants and maidservants were busy lighting incense and handing papers, and Gu Xiren also greeted him, bowed his head and called out: "Second brother, second sister-in-law."
He is always happy with white clothes. He is in plain clothes at the moment. He doesn't notice any difference from the past, but his voice is a little dull. When he raises his eyes, he can see the reddish eye circles.
Gu Xiran nodded to him, then burned incense to the spirit and burned paper for a drink.
In fact, we should cry again, but this behavior is not what he and Shu Huan want. Even if the grief is to the extreme, they can't cry exaggeratedly.
After burning the paper silently, Gu Xiran said hello to Gu Xiren: "Let’s go to see Taijun."
Gu Xiren remained silent, but only sent them to the door of the mourning hall, and went back.
In Songhetang, it’s a different situation. The old lady is sad, Lin is tired, but Gu Da is completely slumped on the couch, his face is sallow, and a handkerchief is still on his forehead, looking very sick , And Gu Xihe was curled up next to the old lady, looking at this, and then at that, showing a very boring look on his face.
When they entered, they seemed to be discussing how to stop the spirits and make funerals. They only heard Lin's words there: "The weather is not cool. If you want to stop the spirits for seven or forty days, I'm afraid it's something wrong. , It’s better to stop for the first seven..."
She didn’t finish her words, and Gu Da who was lying there opened her eyes and snorted: “It’s nothing wrong, just stop for seven, seven or forty days, and then those monks will also rush back to chant the sutras. The setting of the altar"
After the conversation, he saw Gu Xiran walking in from the outside, his sad eyes suddenly brightened, and he was anxious to stand up, but then he heard a cry of excitement: "Second Brother"
He woke up immediately. This was a time, not long, and his heart was sour, the old tears almost flowed down, and the concubines he was serving next to him hurriedly persuade: "Master's sorrow, take care of yourself"
Gu Xiran and Shu Huan were urgently summoned to come back~IndoMTL.com~ not because there is something waiting for them to take care of, but because of the family funeral. All the people in the house must gather together, not to mention the sickness that Gu Xiran showed in the past. There is really no one expecting him to do anything, so after they have asked for an Ann and expressed their grief, the more Gu Da looked at Gu Xiran, the more unpleasant he felt.
When he was in a bad mood, he unexpectedly gave birth to a very absurd idea, wondering why he is still alive in this long-term sickness until now, if he can die for his most beloved one...
Such thoughts just flashed in his mind, and he suddenly realized the viciousness of his thoughts, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, but he didn't want to see Gu Xiran more and more, and he blurted out, "You still know that you are coming back." Funeral? Go, leave here as early as possible, and go back to your house to recover."
This is nothing wrong to find fault, and it is extremely scandalous for dignity and face. Even the old lady glanced at Gu Da with dissatisfaction, but seeing that he was so sad that he could not afford to be ill due to Gu Xitian's passing away, he couldn't bear to say it anymore. What about him, just a long sigh, and an old-fashioned voice: "You go and rest first, look back and watch the funeral in the coffin, and you have to work hard."
Gu Xi looked calm, answered "Yes", and led Shu Huan all the way out.
