The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 160 Funeral
Han Qianluo thought of Li Shi's perseverance before, and felt that such a plain sentence would not calm Li Shi down, but to her surprise, Li Shi really stopped messing around, and suddenly Weirdly calmed down, and said very rationally: "Then let's talk about it later."

At this time, Second Aunt Wang came over and asked: "Qingquan, have you bought anything?" Han Qingquan took out the big bunch of things he bought: "Second Aunt, check if there is anything else you haven't bought yet."

Mrs. Wang carefully counted all the things, and then said: "It's all ready," and then said to Mrs. Li, "Let's go take a bath for her and change into the shroud."

Han Qingquan stopped him and said: "Wait a while, I will report to the official when I come back, and the yamen servant will come in a while."

The second aunt Wang didn't care, she just said: "That's fine, you can't die inexplicably, then wait a little longer." But Li Shi didn't want to, and suddenly sat down on the ground while patting the ground Weeping at the same time: "My poor daughter, you work hard for them. These heartless people are not willing to let you go to the ground when they die."

It is impossible for Han Qianluo not to hear Hong Guoguo's swearing. He was very angry at Li's words that turned black and white, and said angrily: "You have to speak according to your conscience, and she is like a cow. She is about to be killed in our house." Treat it as an ancestor."

Before she finished speaking, the second aunt Wang quickly pulled her away, persuading her: "Qianluo, Chunhua just died, she was too sad, so what she said was inappropriate, don't worry about it, just let her Say a few more words."

"But..." Han Qianluo felt very uncomfortable and wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Wang: "Don't quarrel with her these two days, let's talk about it after the funeral."

Although Han Qianluo felt very uncomfortable, but what the second aunt Wang said was right, so he could only hold back the anger in his heart, ignore Li Shi, and let her cry and scold there.

Not long after, Feng Zhi came with Wu Zuo and the official messenger. After examining the body, Wu Zuo said, "Which one of you found the drowned one?"

"It's me, it's me." Mrs. Li hurriedly stood up and said before the officer could question me, "I came to see my daughter in the morning, but when I opened the door, I didn't see anyone. It was just by the well. Her shoes were found, and then she was found murdered in the well."

The official didn't pay any attention to her words, but said, "You all go back together, and I'll ask you one by one." After speaking, he carried the body away, and asked Han Qianluo and others to go with him.

Knowing that this was just a routine questioning, Han Qianluo was calm and didn't feel scared, but Mrs. Li and Mrs. Wang were terribly frightened. Mrs. Wang hurriedly said to the official: "It's time for me to come here to help prepare for the funeral. It has nothing to do with me."

"Whether it matters or not is up to you." The official gave her an arrogant look, and then walked on.

Han Qianluo wasn't worried about anything else, but was worried that the body couldn't be left for too long in such a hot day and had to be buried as soon as possible.

Han Qianluo and the others were taken to the government, had a routine questioning, and were then asked to go back and wait for news.After Han Qianluo hesitated for a moment, he mustered up his courage and said, "My lord, the weather is hot now, can we take him back for burial?"

The official replied without thinking, "The matter has not been investigated yet, and the corpse cannot be buried." After speaking, he waved his hand and signaled them to leave.

Han Qianluo had no choice but to leave. Just as he walked to the door, a man came in. It turned out to be Xie Yueyong.Seeing Xie Yueyong, the official quickly stood up and said flatteringly: "Master Xie, do you have any orders for coming here?"

Xie Yueyong ignored him, but greeted Han Qianluo and said, "Qianluo, why are you here?"

"Thank you, Mr. Han." Han Qianluo also greeted with a smile.

"It turns out that Young Master Xie knew this girl. Why don't you tell me, girl? You can take her back and bury her." The official said hastily.

Han Qianluo didn't expect such a turning point. He was very surprised, but he thanked him quickly, and then replied vaguely: "Something happened at home."

"Do you need help?" Xie Yueyong asked.

"No need, Mr. Xie, I still have something to do at home, so I'll go back first." Han Qianluo said, and then carried Li Chunhua's body back. As for what Xie Yueyong and the other two said after they left, she didn't care. I care about it.

After returning, Mrs. Li didn't mess around, and hurriedly went with Mrs. Wang to wipe Li Chunhua's body and change her shroud.Han Qianluo also wanted to help, but she didn't know what to do. After all, she had never seen other people's funerals and had no experience.

At this time, Mrs. Wang ran over and asked, "Qianluo, do you have any unfinished meals at home?"

"I've finished my morning meal, Second Aunt, what do you want for food?" Han Qianluo asked puzzled.

Mrs. Wang didn't answer her, but said: "Hurry up and cook some food. You only need to make a little bit, and you don't need too much." After finishing speaking, she turned around and prepared to continue to put on Li Chunhua's shroud, but suddenly turned around and added a sentence , "Remember to make a little meal."

"I see, Second Aunt." Han Qianluo agreed, and hurriedly went to the kitchen to cook. She guessed that it should be used on Li Chunhua, so she took out the ingredients made at home and quickly prepared a little .

Han Qianluo brought out the prepared meal and said to Wang, "Second Aunt, the meal is ready."

"Give it to me." Mrs. Wang took the rice and stuffed it into Li Chunhua's mouth bit by bit.

Han Qianluo was a little puzzled. Why would you feed her when this person is dead? Naturally, she would ask about something she didn't understand, so she asked, "Second Aunt, why did you feed her?"

"Let her be full, so as not to become a starving ghost after going down." Wang replied while stuffing food into Li Chunhua's mouth, knowing that her mouth was full and there was no gap before she stopped.

After finishing these things, Mrs. Li said: "Let me invite a Taoist priest." Mrs. Wang quickly stopped and said, "No need, the head of my family has gone, and he will be back in a while." Personally, the leader was Han Qianluo's second uncle, followed by several men in Taoist costumes.

After the Taoist priests came, they began to make guides. The guides were made of pure white cloth. After they were finished, they were not hung up immediately, but placed aside.

Han Qianluo was a little puzzled by this, but now she didn't want to ask Li Shi, lest she be scolded by Li Shi who was in a bad mood, so she quietly approached Wang Shi and asked, "Second Aunt, why didn't that Lu Yin hang up?" Woolen cloth?"

Mrs. Wang was packing up Li Chunhua's clothes and other things before she was alive, and she didn't raise her head when she heard this: "The coffin hasn't been brought back yet, and the mourning can't be done yet. By the way, is this dress yours?" Mrs. Wang picked up a piece of clothes asked.

There was not much difference in the clothes at this time, and Han Qianluo observed carefully for a while before saying: "It's mine, Second Aunt, let me clean it up, I'm familiar with it."

Mrs. Wang didn't say anything, but just told her: "Then I'll do other things, but don't leave one thing behind, everything will be brought to her."

"I see, Second Aunt." Han Qianluo responded, and quickly packed Li Chunhua's clothes.

It wasn't until mid-afternoon that Feng Zhicai bought the coffin. After bringing the coffin back, he quickly hung Luyin up high. The purpose was to let everyone know that someone in their family had died.

Not long after hanging up Lu Yin, Mrs. Chu came to the door with a little thing in her hand. Han Qianluo went up to meet her, and Mrs. Chu handed the things to her, and said casually, "Qianluo, everything is very important." It happened, don't be too sad."

In fact, Han Qianluo was not sad at all, but felt a little guilty. Although this incident was not her fault, she still felt a little guilty.However, she didn't say this, but casually said a few words, went home and put away the things, and took out a pen and paper to record the things that Mrs. Chu brought, so that she could return the gift later.

After that, people from Qianyangli came one after another, but they just sent things and went back. Of course, some people stayed here to help, such as Zhu and Zhou. Since the last time Han Qianluo gave Zhou's son After introducing that job, Zhou has always been very kind to Han Qianluo, and will come to help no matter what.

Han Qingquan was not at home. He went out to find someone to find out the date of the funeral, and to find someone to dig out the grave, etc. He didn't come back until very late.

Since Li Chunhua did not die of old age and had no children, and because the funeral could not be held too grandly, it was over in a hurry, so the day of the funeral soon came. Since Li Chunhua had no children, she could only choose from among her close relatives. A child, let them walk in front with the tablets and guides.

Han Qianluo followed her elder brother and a few people were walking behind. It was still dark and she couldn't see the road very clearly, so she walked very carefully, and the people who carried the coffin in front were also very careful. After all, if the coffin It is not auspicious if it lands on the ground, it is said that the whole family will die.

The journey was very quiet, and the coffin in front made Han Qianluo feel a little scary, so he could only stick close to Han Qingquan.

"Xiaoluo, are you scared?" Han Qingquan asked in a low voice.

"A little bit." Han Qianluo nodded and said.

"Don't worry, there are no ghosts." Han Qingquan comforted.

Although Han Qianluo knew that there were no ghosts, she still felt a little scary, but she knew that this scary feeling was purely exaggerated by the atmosphere, but she didn't say what she said, but hid it in her heart, and continued Follow the coffin forward.
