Chapter 285: Don’t do anything in the future (Third update, please vote for me)
Taking down windows is the rule nowadays.
It's not because the door is narrow and inconvenient, or the windows are spacious, but because the door is for living people to walk through, not the dead.
Therefore, when transferring spirits, you should go through the window, not the door.
The previous windows were tightly covered with mats to block the light.
It is also a custom that the clothes and burials are not allowed to see the light of day.
The room was as bright as day before, and no one felt any inconvenience. It was because several groups of white candles were lit.
There will be a soul transfer soon.
Si Fujin took the last step, took a veil, and opened it.
Inside is a jade cicada.
This jade is a set, the others are used before getting dressed, this is the last one.
Si Fujin stuffed it into Da Fujin's mouth and called it "Han Ming".
Afraid that the children would cry and make Dafujin's soul restless, he would not follow him.
Si Fujin and Qing Xi hugged each other and took the children to the west room to take shelter.
Neither Da Gege nor Er Gege cried or fussed because they had just received the order and knew that it would not be good for Eni.
I just couldn't stop my tears and cried silently.
The other little ones were still coaxed into a daze and were quiet and well-behaved.
There were many people starting to tear down the windows in the east.
In an instant, the window lattice and everything else were removed.
The fresh air from outside comes in, and the stale air from inside the house goes out.
The door panels required for moving spirits are also placed beside the kang, covered with golden mattresses.
The eldest brother, without any help, personally picked up Da Fujin and placed her on the spirit board.
The ninth elder brother had already sent people to the front to greet the tenth elder brother.
The eldest elder brother and the fourth elder brother were in the house, and the ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were waiting outside the window to turn the spirit board outside.
Everywhere he passed, the fragrance filled the air, covering up the previous smell of blood.
During the burial, I used clove oil soaked in various spices specially provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and applied it several times.
Even wearing seven layers of clothes can't completely cover up the smell of spices.
Everyone was silent and followed the spirit board to the front yard.
There is a funeral shed built in the front yard, which encompasses the entire yard.
In the main position of the funeral shed, there is a funeral bed with several layers of mattresses made of spices instead of cotton.
Like the previous clove oil, it was also prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
There are cases in which county prince Fujin organizes funerals.
Therefore, the burial bed was neatly laid out, and three offering tables were placed in front of the burial bed, with five silver offerings on them.
In the corner of the courtyard, there is a monastery for monks, Taoists, and Buddhist monks, and their ears are filled with the sound of chanting.
The spirit board was moved to the courtyard, and all the deacons and servants in the courtyard knelt down.
At the gate, there were clan members who had just come in to "visit the funeral." When they saw this, they started to cry.
The cry was ups and downs, but it was a dry howl and no tears were shed.
This is also the rule of "visiting funerals".
Previously, the princes Fujin and his clan brother Fujin were sitting in the front and could not proceed with the process of visiting the funeral. It was because there was no spirit transfer and there was no place to cry.
In the main hall of the front yard, the male guests in the front hall heard the noise and all went out.
The female family members in the back hall heard the crying outside and knew it was time to stay in bed, so they all came out.
San Fujin had already stood up and strode out following his clan relatives Fujin.
Bafujin had already woken up, looking a little tired and showing no intention of getting up.
Wu Fujin also got up, and when he saw Ba Fujin's appearance, he felt a little worried.
When Qi Fujin saw it, he said to Wu Fujin: "There are so many people now, it is easy to collide. My eighth brother and sister and I will go out slowly..."
Wu Fujin nodded and then chased the female family members in front out.
In the funeral shed outside, more women began to cry and howl.
Si Fujin took Qingxi to the cross-yard to place some children, and Shu Shu took several maids from Da Fujin to follow.
At the time of the funeral, all the people in the royal family got dressed and began to mourn their mother.
However, someone also needed to look after the incense, candles, melons and fruits in front of the funeral bed, so Shu Shu brought a few people over.
For women today, the relationship between master and servant is no worse than the relationship between husband and wife.
Especially noble women spend more time with their maids than their parents and husbands.
The great fortune has passed away, the eldest brother has passed away, and these girls all look like mourning concubines.
When Shu Shu saw it, she thought of the people around her and felt compassion.
Hearing everyone's cries, Shu Shu waved her hands and sent the four maids forward. She stopped and held the handkerchief tightly.
It seems like I should cry too...
But in front of everyone, I couldn't cry...
Shu Shu stood in a secret place nearby, intending to take a look at the situation of the other princes Fujin first.
Sisters-in-law, they probably won’t be able to howl either...
If that doesn't work, just wait here for Si Fujin to come out, and then follow Si Fujin's lead.
The howling sounds ahead were already coming and going.
"Oh, auntie, why did you just leave... My nephew-in-law's heart was ripped away..."
Listening to the cries, one knew the identity of the person visiting the funeral. She was the nephew-in-law of a clan member.
"Sister-in-law, please go slowly. We are coming to see you off. We will never see you again..."
This is not the prince Fujin, but a young daughter-in-law with an ugly face. I don’t know which palace she comes from.
Nowadays, the female relatives who come to visit the funeral are no longer limited to wearing blue flags or red flags.
Other clans who had received the news also arrived one after another.
In addition to clan relatives, there are also in-laws.
Dafujin's natal family, the Irgenjueluo family, the eldest brother's maternal family, the Nala family, and the in-laws of the married princes are also considered relatives-in-law, and they want to come to express their condolences.
Jueluo from Dutong Prefecture also came.
Seeing Da Fujin go to bed, the princes Fujin and his clan brother Fujin began to cry.
Jue Luo was a little anxious.
Why is no one coming to the palace?
It took so long?
This only took a long time.
Walnut and Xiaosong were left in the front yard, following Wufujin.
Xiaosong's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Jueluo Shi, he hurriedly whispered to Wufujin.
Wu Fujin withdrew from the crowd and came over to say hello.
Seeing this, Mr. Jueluo hurriedly asked for blessing gifts, but was supported by Wu Fujin.
"We are all close relatives of flesh and blood, there is no need for aunt to be like this..."
Wufujin showed his closeness, and Jueluo was not polite and followed him.
Seeing Xiaosong and Walnut following Wufujin, Jueluo felt at ease.
My daughter is out, so I wish I didn't delay.
This kind of funeral should be done sooner rather than later, otherwise it will be easy to be picked on.
She was not in a hurry to ask, but Wu Fujin was afraid that she would worry, so he said: "The ninth brother and sister followed our fourth sister-in-law to take care of some children..."
While the two were talking, Shu Shu had already come over.
It turned out that she was paying attention to the movements of several princes Fujin in the corner.
At first, all the female relatives were not there. Later, the three and five blessings came out, but the seven and eight blessings were nowhere to be seen.
San Fujin followed his clan member Fujin and squeezed in front of the funeral bed, sitting in the middle position, giving him a strong sense of presence.
However, San Fujin didn't seem to be embarrassed to cry, so he just wiped his eyes with a handkerchief, tears streaming down his face.
Wufu Jin was one step behind, not pushing towards the spirit, and then moved outside.
Shu Shu was curious and followed him over, just in time to see Jueluo Shi.
Shu Shu hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Luo Shi's arm. Her body could not help but tremble.
Jueluo was about to reprimand her, but when he saw this, he changed his words, rubbed her back and said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, this will happen to everyone..."
Shu Shu choked up and said: "I'm afraid, Eni and Amma will live a long life, love me and pamper me, don't let me become an abandoned person..."
Nowadays, the loss of a father is called "lost parent", the loss of mother is called "lost dependence", and the death of both parents is called "lonely dew" or "abandoned adoption".
After hearing this, Jueluo changed his hand movements and strength, and hit him several times in succession.
"Bah! Even if you say stupid things, you still don't know the taboo!"
I felt that Luo Shi had no energy left.
Shu Shu staggered after being slapped, but she also patted back her tears.
She raised her head and looked at the sky, and said sarcastically: "Tong Yan Wuji, Tong Yan Wuji..."
After saying that, she looked at Jueluoshi with grievance: "I am still a child, and Enie is willing to work so hard..."
Jueluoshi glared at her and said, "If you keep talking so openly, I'll beat you next time..."
He Yuzhu and Sun Jin followed Ninth Elder Brother out, but were also left in front. They had seen Jueluo Shi long ago, and hurried over to see Ninth Elder Brother to report.
Brother Jiu hurriedly came over to see his mother-in-law, and saw the part where the mother-in-law was goddaughter.
His face looked a little ugly, and his cheeks were bulging.
Why are you still interested in getting started?!
Is there anything you can’t say properly?
There was also the fifth sister-in-law, who was just watching from the side and didn't know how to stop her.
When they arrived, after hearing what Jue Luo Shi said, Jiu Age hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her: "You're not a child, how can you beat her? Don't do anything in the future, just tell her that she is..."
Jue Luo Shi: "..."
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Shu Shu hurriedly said: "Eni didn't hit me, he just slapped me twice... It's my fault, I'm talking nonsense..."
"You can't get started then!"
Brother Jiu said unhappily.
Jueluo's face drooped and he looked at Brother Jiu.
Is this really stupid, or is it fake?
Didn't you see that Shu Shu was scared?
His face was so pale that he was afraid of others.
His whole body was trembling and his mind was unsteady.
I don't know what I'm thinking about.
If he didn't give her a few pats to change her mind, she would probably be restless at night.
How could Brother Nine think of anything else?
It was under his mother-in-law's eyes that he realized that his tone just now was wrong and not gentle enough, so he hurriedly added: "If you use too much force, your hands will hurt; if you use too little force, it won't work, and you will feel very angry.
If there's anything wrong with Fujin, you'd better tell me..."
Jue Luoshi raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter? I told my brother that he wants to do it himself?"
Brother Jiu really wanted to show off his husband's relationship outside, but he would not brag foolishly in front of his mother-in-law. He shook his head and said: "How can I do that? I will punish her to copy books..."
When Wufujin saw them talking, he did not disturb them and said goodbye to Jueluo. Then he left the pine trees and walnuts with Shushu and returned to the funeral.
Now is not the time to tease anyone.
I think the Luo family just came here for a formality because they lived nearby.
The formal condolence is the day after tomorrow during the funeral and "first seven".
The scene is over, the girl and her uncle have also met, and she is about to go back.
Brother Jiu did not alert the other deacons, and took Shu Shu to send Jueluo Shi out of the county prince's palace.
Before getting on the carriage, Mr. Jueluo touched Shu Shu's body.
The cotton-padded clothes are all newly made, but they are only cotton-padded clothes and are not as good as fur to keep out the cold.
"There are some cotton cloaks at home. They are newly made and are ready for important events. They are not yet worn. I will send someone to bring them to you in a while. You sisters-in-law can share a share..."
Jueluo's way.
This important preparation was naturally for my uncle's sake.
It is prepared every winter, just for keeping vigil at night. When it is no longer needed, it can be used as a reward during the New Year without wasting any money.
Shu Shu had read her family's account books before she got married. Knowing this expenditure, she nodded and said, "That's great. I was just thinking about how to stay up at night."
Jue Luo Shi glanced at Brother Jiu.
Brother Ninth was obedient, with a respectful look on his face.
Jue Luoshi said: "Brother, remember what I said today. If anything happens in the future, tell her and don't do anything..."
Brother Jiu wanted to curse and swear: "I will definitely not do anything... Don't worry, those who beat my wife are not men..."
Jueluo Shi snorted lightly and stopped talking about it. He said, "I heard that several young brothers from the palace are here too. It's cold today and even colder at night. I'll send more cloaks later. I'll also send you some cloaks here."
Keep a portion, don't dislike the simplicity, it's important to keep out the cold..."
The princes are so pampered that they cannot stand the cold.
In this bitter cold season, if you get frostbite, it's no joke.
My own girl was brought out by my uncle, so I’d better take her back properly...
Brother Jiu was not polite and said: "You can't just give it to the little ones. I'm afraid several brothers will also use it. If my mother-in-law has rich ones, send them all. No matter how much it is..."
