    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    In the past few days, there were many officials and relatives coming and going to pay homage. Huaxi knew that his status was inappropriate, so he did not go to the funeral during the day.  As she expected, no one from the Mu family invited her over.  But she thought that since she had already moved in, even if she was a guest, she had to respect the host's family.  Although the name is unfair and the words are inappropriate, you can't always stop worshiping the spirit and make people laugh at you for not knowing etiquette.

    After five days, Huaxi felt that the time was almost up, so she asked Hongliu to send a message to his wife.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Mrs. Xiao had just sent her eldest brother off, and felt much better after hearing her eldest brother's reply that Prince Luoxi had agreed, and immediately sent Hongliu into the house to reply.

    Hongliu entered the room and bowed, and politely answered a few questions about Mrs. Xiao's daily life in Huaxi before saying: "Going back to Madam, the girl said that Madam has many female relatives coming and going from various houses here, and her identity may cause inconvenience.  I lost my etiquette in front of outsiders, so I haven't come over to pay my respects to Madam in the past few days. It's just that she is about to have her first trimester, and I want to go to Lord Hou's funeral tonight to lay a stick of incense."

    Mrs. Xiao replied: "I was negligent. It's rare for a child to be interested. If he wants to go, he can go tonight. After seven days of burial, the house is not so busy, so you can take the girl around in the garden. By the way, tell her,  After the funeral, my grandmother will clear her name.¡±

    Hongliu was stunned for a moment at first, but he immediately understood and was about to leave and turn back, but he was called to stop by Mrs. Xiao again.

    ¡°There is no incense in the house today, why can I smell jasmine? Did Hongliu bring any new sachets with him?¡±

    Hongliu hurriedly lifted up the linen outer cover and pulled out a purple satin sachet from her waist, and handed it to Madam Xiao, "Do you smell this, Madam?"

    Mrs. Xiao took the sachet and rubbed it in her hand, "Yes, that's right. Not to mention the exquisite embroidery work, it's rare that the fragrance is authentic. When did Hongliu make it?"

    "Madam, this is not made of tamarisk. It was given to me by Miss Huaxi, and the incense in it was also made by Miss Huaxi herself."

    Mrs. Xiao was a little surprised and nodded in praise, "Oh, it's rare for this child to be clever and clever. Go back and tell Huaxi to have dinner at my place in the evening before going to worship the spirit."

    "Yes." Hongliu took the sachet handed back by Mrs. Xiao, bowed her knees and walked out.

    ¡­¡­

    At nightfall, Huaxi changed into a plain white dress, put on linen clothes, tied a white velvet flower in her hair, and went to the mourning hall with tamarisk and lilac and a basket of ingots and paper money.

    Before the first seven days, the Mu family¡¯s nephews and nephews took turns keeping vigil.  Tonight, the second brother, Mu Xiuyuan, and two brothers from the family branch, Xiuzi generation, are all 17 or 18 years old. They are familiar with each other on weekdays, so they line up to watch together.

    Mu Xiuyuan and his two brothers were kneeling on the futon. Mu Xiuyuan abided by the rules and knelt upright, while the two brothers next to him were a little slack, unable to straighten their waists, and looked like they were asleep with half-closed eyes.

    A burst of jasmine fragrance wafted in, and Mu Xiuyuan saw Hong Liu stepping in from the door carrying a basket.

    "To report to the Third Young Master, Madam asked the servant to bring the Huaxi girl from Qixia Garden to offer incense to the Marquis." Hongliu's voice was very soft, but the mourning hall was too quiet, so the two brothers who had just been napping next to Mu Xiuyuan also woke up.  .

    Qixia Garden?  Huaxi?

    Mu Xiuyuan thought of the half of the lotus-colored sarong he saw when he lowered his head in front of his grandfather's bed, and the ethereal voice. Was it the girl who came that day?

    "Please! We are all our brothers, not outsiders."

    Mu Xiuyuan and the other three stood up.

    Hong Liu put down the basket and went out to help Hua Xi in. Mu Xiuyuan's eyes also focused on the plain white figure that appeared at the door.

    Pianpian approached, filled with happiness, and the elegant orange fragrance spread, fresh and simple, as if smelling the fragrance of the leaves on the sunny orange trees beside the country road in the early morning, adding vitality to the condensed and dead air.  smell.

    She raised her eyelashes slightly, revealing a pair of clear and bright brown eyes from under the faint shadow. Mu Xiuyuan was distracted for a moment, as if he saw his own figure passing by and then disappearing in a wave of eyes.

    "Greetings to the third young master and the two young masters."

    The voice is light and graceful, and it sounds nice.

    A brother from the family next to Mu Xiuyuan rubbed his eyes and asked in a mumble, "Did I dream about fairies?"

    The other whispered: "No, no, it's true"

    "Sister, please!" Mu Xiuyuan came to his senses and hurriedly returned the courtesy to cover up his gaffe.

    Mu Xiuyuan was born with delicate features, and his linen clothes did not affect his gentle and elegant temperament unconsciously.Someone that people want to get close to.

    Hua Xi nodded slightly, then walked to the soul to burn incense and kneel down.

    Although it is summer, ice cubes are placed in the mourning hall. Occasionally, the wind blows in, white flags fly, and the evergreen lights flicker and dance, as if weeping in the wind, which makes people feel eerie.

    Hongliu and Dingxiang stood aside and shivered, and moved towards Mu Xiuyuan and the others at the same time.

    Mu Xiuyuan noticed it and glanced past the two of them to look at Huaxi.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Burning incense, and kneeling and kowtowing, from the beginning to the end, he had a look of peace and tranquility, without any sign of sorrow, as if he would never be disturbed by external forces, and seemed indifferent to all this.  If it were the other sisters, they might not dare to come to the mourning hall at night. I don't know whether I should call her calm or indifferent.

    But at this moment, Huaxi was thinking about something else. The intersection between herself and this relative who was connected by blood was only a moment, and the separation was also a moment.  Firstly, she came here to kowtow to Mu Xiangwan, repaying her years of upbringing; secondly, she came here so that the old marquis could let her out of the valley before he died. Even if there were some ulterior reasons behind it, she still wanted to thank him for giving her  Another possible path for myself.

    After Huaxi finished offering the incense, he turned around and saluted Mu Xiuyuan and the others, "Three brothers have worked hard to guard the funeral, please take care of yourself. Huaxi has been causing trouble for a long time, so I'm leaving now."

    Mu Xiuyuan was quite curious about this beautiful and quiet girl. He wanted to ask a few questions, but he knew that the occasion was not appropriate to say more. He only returned the gift and continued to keep vigil, but he still looked at the door for a long time after Hua Xi left.  .

    "Brother Yuan, who was that just now? Why have you never seen it before?" A chubby boy next to Mu Xiuyuan pushed Mu Xiuyuan's arm and asked in a low voice.

    "It's a distant relative of the family." Mu Xiuyuan vaguely guessed that day, but the elder didn't say anything, so he couldn't spread it randomly.

    Another handsome-looking young man came up to chat with her and said, "Tsk, tsk, I think that looks a bit like a Western Yi. But that little face is really handsome, even more beautiful than the Yi dancers who lean on the red building."

    "What nonsense are you talking about?! How can you insult the reputation of your sisters like this in front of your grandfather's soul? Are you not afraid that your grandfather's ghost will blame you?" Mu Xiuyuan was a little angry, and his deliberately suppressed voice unconsciously became louder.

    The handsome young man shrank his neck and subconsciously glanced at Mutian and the corpse. The lamp suddenly jumped twice, and he was so frightened that he closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, and murmured a prayer.

    The fat boy beside him couldn't help but be afraid. Although he agreed with what the handsome boy said in his heart, after what happened just now, he was scared away from the courage to echo a few words. He still dared to think wildly. He quickly straightened his waist and knelt down.  Straight.

    Mu Xiuyuan suppressed his anger and thought to himself, grandfather, please calm down, don't blame your grandson for being reckless.
