Because "the funeral was kept simple" and because Mrs. Wang and other family members were present, the funeral procession did not stop at Tiekang Temple. After only a short rest, they returned to Shenjing City.
It was already nightfall when we returned to Rongguo Mansion.
Jia Cong escorted Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, Wang Xifeng, Yingchun, Baoyu, Jia Huan, Jia Lan and other relatives to Rongqing Hall to pay their respects to Jia Mu, the highest-ranking and oldest member of the Jia family.
Jia's mother didn't look good. After receiving the courtesy from everyone, she first called Baoyu to her side and showed her love in every possible way.
Baochai, Tanchun, Xichun, Xiangyun and other girls accompanying Jia Mu got up to meet Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang.
After sitting down one by one, Amber led a group of little girls to serve warm tea.
After drinking, Jia¡¯s mother asked Li Wan to take the girls and Baoyu down to rest, and also asked Jia Huan and Jia Lan to go back to their homes to find their mothers.
Seeing this posture, everyone knew that Jia Mu must have something to talk about, so they all obediently got up and left, leaving Tanchun alone.
Jia Cong then realized that Tanchun¡¯s appearance was very different now.
In the past, her beautiful eyes were now red and swollen, and there were even tears on her face.
"I originally thought it was because of sadness that Jia Lian shed tears, but now it seems that there is another reason.
Jia Cong frowned slightly when he saw this. He felt very sorry for this sister who had always been close to him and spoke for him several times.
Baochai wanted to persuade Tanchun to be obedient and leave together, not to disobey Jia Mu's orders, but Tanchun sat there and didn't move.
Baochai was anxious and subconsciously looked at Jia Cong. Jia Cong nodded slightly to her and signaled her to go and it was okay.
Baochai sighed when he saw it, and left with Li Wan and others.
This scene fell in Tanchun's eyes, and tears suddenly fell from his eyes. He frowned and pursed his lips, looking at Jia Cong with a look of grievance that he wanted to remain strong but couldn't hide.
"Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang are both top-notch women in the inner house. How could we not see this scene?"
"It's just that Mrs. Wang has always been taciturn. Although she was puzzled, she knew there must be a reason. If Jia Mu didn't speak, she wouldn't ask.
Jia Zheng was still waiting for Jia Mu to say something, so he didn¡¯t pay attention here for a while
Jia Cong did not avoid anything. He looked at Tan Chun and asked slowly: "Third sister, what's going on?" His voice was hoarse and unpleasant.
As a filial son, he cried all day today.
At a time when propriety and filial piety are paramount, the only thing that best embodies filial piety during funerals is the word cry.
Although it was difficult for him to cry, he thought that until he had the ability to challenge the world alone, he could only do as the Romans do.
He cried very well and many people praised him for his pure filial piety
The price is this hoarse voice like a broken gong.
When Tanchun saw his voice like this, a trace of regret appeared on his face, as if he regretted not bothering Jia Cong at this time.
But before she could hesitate about how to cover it up, Jia Mu snorted and spat: "It's not because of your evil deed!"
Jia Cong was stunned. When he saw Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang looking over, he felt a little guilty
I was thinking that the matter of Tanchun washing his hair had come to light?
¡°In terms of etiquette, this is certainly not appropriate.
"But how many people in the Jia family are so strict in etiquette?"
¡°It¡¯s not a Confucian family with great ethics, so there are not many violations?
Tanchun was still reluctant to let Jia Cong be wronged, and his voice was a little hoarse, saying: "It has nothing to do with the third brother"
Jia Mu snorted and said, "Why doesn't it matter? Isn't it just to curry favor with the Jia family when they want you to be the wife of a concubine? Didn't your third brother say that the prestige of the Jia family now depends on him? Why doesn't it matter Besides, what about the concubine? Isn¡¯t your third brother a concubine? Now he¡¯s fighting against me! Maybe he¡¯s the same as your third brother!¡±
When Tanchun heard this, his face turned red, he was ashamed and angry, and his tears fell down.
Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang finally understood what was going on and frowned.
Jia Cong was really in trouble. He looked at Jia Mu, endured the pain in his throat, and said slowly: "What the old lady said makes sense. If you want to please my third sister, it's not necessary for you to be a concubine. But since you are compared with me, , then let¡¯s have a good competition. I don¡¯t need to ask him to win a champion. If I can get a pheasant and a wild duck, I will accept it. I will prepare a hundred and twenty-eight dowries to send the third sister out of the palace in a glorious manner. If I can¡¯t do it. , let his family work hard for decades before proposing marriage. How can I, the phoenix girl of the Jia family, marry a useless beast of the dog tribe?"
These words almost made Mother Jia so angry that she had a cerebral hemorrhage. She was originallybsp; Jia Cong looked at the tired look in her gentle eyes, took her into his arms, and said with a smile, "I said you are sleeping in the East Road Courtyard today. Why don't you accompany Sister Feng to feel relieved?"
Hearing this, a hint of guilt flashed across Ping'er's face, he lowered his head and said, "How can I be so relieved? Grandma Oh!"
No one thought that Wang Xifeng would be so miserable because of Jia Lian's death.
Jia Cong naturally knew this, so he asked even more curiously: "Then why are you back?"
Ping'er said softly: "I'm more worried about you. I've been running around for days, and today I'm even more exhausted. I even lost my voice, so I took a leave of absence"
Jia Cong sniffed the gentle warm fragrance on Ping'er's body and looked at her gentle and kind eyes. He felt warm in his heart and said with a smile: "Let's go, leave the second sister-in-law alone over there. Don't even think about sleeping tonight. I'll be with you." Together, we will bring her here and let her rest with her sister-in-law. Now that they have the same status, they can just exchange their experiences of sending sorrow"
Hearing this, Ping'er looked at Jia Cong in surprise. After meeting Jia Cong's eyes, he didn't need to say any more words and leaned tightly into Jia Cong's arms.
Fortunately, if we win the heart of one person, we will never be separated!
