The next day, Yejia Village was peaceful as usual.
Around this time, a group of women who went to wash their clothes by the river passed by the door of Lao Ye's house. They heard sobbing coming from inside, and couldn't help but look over...
The rose flowers in the flower bed are in full bloom and their fragrance is fragrant~
Visitors did not care to admire the gorgeous flowers. Through the gaps between the layers of green leaves, they could not see clearly, but the crying became louder and louder.
The breeze blows and the branches and leaves sway.
Suddenly, someone clearly discovered a coffin placed in the front yard of Lao Ye's house.
"ah--"
In less than two-quarters of an hour, the news that Ye Guihua, the youngest daughter of the Ye family, died of a serious illness spread throughout the Ye family village.
The whole village was in an uproar.
Everyone has never heard of that girl being sick. How come she is gone just like she is?
That girl is white, fat, and looks very strong. Doesn't she look like she is seriously ill?
Besides, given their family’s financial resources, it’s not like they couldn’t afford medicine, but they couldn’t be saved. What kind of serious illness was it?
People were talking a lot.
Some people have said that last time when the boy from the Chen family came to propose marriage, Lao Qian and mother and daughter Ye Guihua were not seen. Could it be that the boy was ill that time?
In short, no matter how much they mutter, there are no people left now.
And if you think about this kind of thing, you won't lie to Lao Ye's family.
When people are feeling sad, you can't catch them out of curiosity and ask them what's wrong with that girl, right?
Therefore, no one doubts that there is anything fishy about this matter.
But they still couldn't help but gather together and murmur, lamenting that Ye Guihua is a poor person.
The old Ye family was rich and respectable. They lived in a big house, had good food, good drinks, and well-dressed clothes. They also had servants to do housework. Old Qian raised her like a young lady, even without clothes.
With washing.
What a wonderful day, why can’t I die to enjoy it?
Some of them also secretly hinted that a country girl from a farmer's family must be raised as a daughter-in-law, but she didn't even think about how she could enjoy such a great blessing because she was born in poverty.
Look, something happened now?
If you are blessed, your life span will be shortened!
Naturally, at this juncture, no one dared to say this openly. After all, the corpse of the deceased was still cold, and his mouth was too short, which seemed too mean.
But everyone knows what it means.
As a result, the discussion became more vigorous, but they did not dare to speak loudly.
——
It is unlucky for an unmarried girl to die young.
They will not set up a mourning hall or hold a large funeral, and they are not allowed to enter their ancestors' graves.
A well-educated family can bury the person in a remote place with a thin coffin; the poor family only has a torn mat rolled up and dug a hole to bury; there are even those who dislike bad luck and throw the person directly into a mass grave
, letting wild beasts eat it.
If by chance, there is an unmarried man who died young, he may be a candidate for marriage and be buried in the man's ancestral grave.
In the future Qingming Festival, I can also get incense to worship, so I won't become a lonely ghost with no clan.
However, the old Ye family didn't expect any kind of marriage, so how could Ye Guihua's body dare to be seen by outsiders?
Early in the morning, Ye Shitian and Ye Laiyin went to the town to buy a coffin and came back. They asked Ye Mancang to guard the backyard aisle. Ye Shitian, Ye Laijin, Ye Laiyin, and Ye Xusheng started to collect the coffin.
The coffin only stayed in the front yard for a stick of incense to let the younger generation say goodbye.
Ye Feifeng burst into tears, and He Xiner, who had just recovered from a serious illness, also burst into tears. When the villain Wang Jinling saw the coffin, he had long forgotten his previous vow not to be good to his sister-in-law, and thought about the scene where she held his hand and played, and his heart was filled with tears.
Grief, crying loudly;
Ye Yuanyuan and Guan Cuizhi were afraid that He Xiner's body would not be able to bear it, so they held her arms on the left and right, wiping her sweat and tears from time to time, but they themselves could not help but shed tears...
Everyone who saw this scene felt sad. Mrs. Wang also cried very sadly. Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Liu kept comforting her, and their eyes were red.
Among the female relatives, only Xiao Qian went through the motions with her head lowered, putting her hands on her forehead, blocking other people's sight, eyes rolling, and planning to seize Ye Guihua's clothes and jewelry...
