The five hundred and ninetieth chapter does not enter the ancestral grave
What's more, my cousin used to be a widower and even worked as a concubine. How could she marry into her natal family?
But she didn't know that her cousin would hit the wall and commit suicide, which made her feel a little guilty.
Wang Yueniang really couldn't figure out why Mrs. Li said she was the one who put the medicine. After Gu Chengyi died, Mrs. Li was freed, so why did she commit suicide?
She obviously put the medicine in there! Wang Yueniang stared blankly at Li, who was lying on the ground getting colder. She felt empty in her heart for some reason.
Li's bleeding stopped, but Li was no longer breathing.
Gu Chengyu probed the artery in Li's neck and found that the artery had stopped beating.
Li Langzhong silently took back the silver needle. Two people in the Gu family died in a row today.
"Let's have a funeral for her!"
Gu Chengyu stood up, glanced at Wang Yueniang who was still in shock and couldn't recover, and finally said nothing.
"Alas!" Uncle Gu's myriad emotions turned into a long sigh. He didn't expect that so many things would happen to the Gu family today.
Killing to pay for life, Li paid for Gu Chengyi's life.
But everyone's hearts were very heavy. No one expected that these two people would reach this point.
Gu Chengyu looked at the main house and frowned. This house could no longer be inhabited.
No matter what, people had died in this house, so he felt unlucky to have his parents live in this house.
"Now that she has paid with her life, what should we do with this body?"
Uncle Gu first broke the calm. If a person dies, he can't just throw it on the ground, right?
"I hope Uncle Li will keep his mouth shut and not spread this matter." Gu Chengyu told Langzhong Li.
Li Langzhong nodded, "I don't have to worry about it, don't worry!"
He accepted Gu Chengchi as his apprentice, so naturally he became a family. If he was still waiting for Gu Chengchi to break the pot for him in the future, how could he spread rumors about the Gu family outside?
"What do you think we should do? Should we inform her parents?" Gu Chenglian saw that no one had expressed their plans, so he stepped forward and suggested.
Father Gu nodded, "Oh! Her mother's family needs to be notified. She is always a daughter of the Li family."
But what worried Mr. Gu was what to tell the villagers and what to tell Li's family.
Could it be said that his Gu family forced someone to death? Although they are indeed not to blame for this matter, the second son of his family is not without fault.
Father Gu didn't know about Li's affair with his cousin, and he thought that it was because Li couldn't stand Gu Chengyi's torture that he killed his second brother.
When a good concubine like Mrs. Li passes away in her husband's family, her parents' family always needs to notify her.
"Buy her a good coffin! After all, she has to serve the second child, and she is a poor person."
Father Gu has complicated feelings towards Mrs. Li. His second son was killed by Mrs. Li, but he really can't hate Mrs. Li.
"Where will she be buried?" Gu Chengyu thought of a question.
It was impossible for Mrs. Li to return to her parents' home for burial. In ancient times, women were all married off, so they were thrown away.
Even if she is divorced, she cannot enter the ancestral graves of her parents' family, but as the Li family is a concubine, she is not qualified to enter the Gu family's ancestral graves.
This is a bit difficult. Where should the Li family be buried?
"Then choose another place to bury her!" Uncle Gu hesitated for a moment, and then said to everyone.
It was impossible for her to enter the Gu family's ancestral grave. Considering that Li killed Gu Chengyi, it would be worthy of her to choose a piece of land for her.
Wang Yueniang frowned. She was also a concubine, so she would not be able to enter the Gu family's ancestral tomb in a hundred years.
If you don’t enter your ancestor’s grave, won’t you become a wild ghost in the lonely grave?
Everyone present naturally knows it, but this is the best way.
"Wipe her body and put it on the door! The coffin will definitely have to wait until tomorrow. All the shops are closed now."
Farmers also hire people to build coffins. In this case, you only need to go to the mountains to select two suitable logs, and then hire a craftsman to build a coffin.
But after all, Li was young and was walking in a hurry, so it would be too late to fight him now.
"Let me wipe her body!" She could have asked the girl to do this, but Wang Yueniang knew that she owed Mrs. Li.
No matter what purpose Mr. Li had for taking the blame for her, he was gone after all. Doing one last thing for Ms. Li made her feel better.
Father Gu asked someone to remove the door panel of the main room. This was to prepare Wang Yueniang and put it on the door panel first.
Mrs. Li was quickly carried down, and the mute granny poured the unused plant ashes on the ground. The area covered with blood must be cleaned up.
"Dad! You go to my yard to rest first. No one can live here."
Gu Chengyu looked at the tired Father Gu and the others and stepped forward to suggest.
Father Gu disagreed, "Then stay in the east wing! The second brother's funeral hall is too deserted, I will go and accompany him."
"Dad! How can your body bear the pain? You should go back and rest first!" Gu Chenglian stepped forward to persuade him.
His father suffered a big blow today. He stayed at the mourning hall during the day. How could he survive the night?
After several people tried to persuade him, Father Gu still refused, so Gu Chengyu had no choice but to send Mrs. Lu to his yard to rest.
Gu Chengyu thought it would be a good time to take this opportunity to discuss the expansion of the old house. However, it was originally an expansion, but now it has to be demolished and rebuilt.
The ancients had a superstitious belief that this was the main house, so even if you lived there, you would definitely feel uncomfortable.
"I happen to be here today, and I want to talk about the old house."
Gu Chengyu knew it was getting late, so he just said a few words.
Everyone was a little surprised that Gu Chengyu suddenly mentioned the old house, and everyone looked confused.
"The door of the old house is too small. Besides, after what happened today, the main house will definitely not be inhabitable. We pushed the old house to the point of being rebuilt and talked to the Zhang family next door whether we could use their land and house
Sell it to us and build the house bigger."
Gu Chengli scratched his head. He was the eldest son in the family, and the eldest son would inherit this old house in the future.
If it is said that it is pushed to a heavy level, it must be a matter of the long house. If it is just pushed to a heavy level, and it needs to be built to a larger size, it will definitely cost a lot of money.
"I'm just telling you today to see what your opinions are. My parents can't live in this house anymore. You can bring up your ideas. But it's getting late today, and this matter can't be decided now.
Everyone, think about it first and go back and have a rest!"
Gu Chengyu had such a plan before, but he didn't have time to mention it yet.
Now that the Gu family is in chaos, they naturally can't take care of this.
But his parents will always have a place to live in the future, and there is no way they will never return to Shangling Village.
Of course he wouldn't mind if he stayed in his yard, but he was afraid that his eldest brother would be stabbed in the back.
It is said that the eldest son inherits the family business and provides for his parents in their old age. There are not many parents in the village who live with their youngest son.
Besides, it's impossible for his father to agree, so how can it embarrass the eldest brother?
Everyone dispersed, and Erlang and Sanlang went to the front to keep vigil.
"Li's parents are not easy to get along with. They will probably make a fuss tomorrow."
