C17 The Old Mistress' Mercy

The Old Lady's "Mercy"

When Liu Daxia and the other two saw it, their hearts ached. When they got on the horse carriage, they got someone to cook the Herbal Tea Eggs and secretly brought it along with them.

"Eat quickly. If you continue to wait like this, I'm afraid we'll all have to work for you before your uncle's matter is over." Liu Jian took the egg skin and stuffed it into Wu Youwei's mouth.

"Alright, I'll eat." Wu Youwei was not a person who didn't know what was good for himself, and the concern of his schoolmates had made him very worried.

Even though he had asked Xiaoxiao to pass on a letter to them in the beginning, he did have the intention to make use of it.

But they had given him a waist in the mourning hall, and he had accepted their kindness.

Seeing him eat it, Liu Daxia and the rest were finally relieved. An egg was nothing, but at this time, Wu Youwei could not fall down, if he fell down, the Blood Mother would probably do something.

Along the way, the one crying at the front was his legitimate brother, which lasted half a day. At noon, they ate at an inn by the side of the road.

Because it was winter, there were not many vegetables, just tofu, cabbage, and radishes. There were not even potatoes, because the potatoes had not been grown widely yet.

The most common dish was pickles.

The tofu stewed with mustard in the snow was delicious.

However, for the sake of being 'sad', Wu Youjiu ate less than half of the steamed buns.

Fortunately, his schoolmate had hidden some food for him in the car.

It was just a steamed bun with salted duck eggs in it and a pot of warm water. That was it.

However, this little bit of food was enough for Wu Youzi to consume for the sake of his body. However, when he was eating, he was crying, "In the past, it was all secretly given to me by father to eat …"

Liu Daxia and the rest looked at each other, it seemed that the Old Madam Wu Family was truly a powerful person!

At night, they finally arrived at the ancestral tomb.

Wu Family's ancestral grave had been moved here by three generations of ancestors, and the caretaker's eldest brother and his family were guarding it.

The ancestral tomb was taken care of very well, and the butler's elder brother was also a capable person. Others would avoid guarding the ancestral tomb, but only he was very active and brought his entire family over.

In the past few years outside, his life had been carefree, and he had received quite a bit of money to repair his ancestors' graves. He had also gained the reputation of a "loyal servant".

Every year, the family would be rewarded no less than anyone else.

The entire family was already waiting outside the yard protecting the ancestral grave, dressed in mourning attire.

This mountain was the Wu Family's mountain. The mountain was covered with pine trees and there were many tombs of various sizes.

Since Wu Family was an official family, their family's tomb repair was a little higher than the ordinary family's, and they also had stone tablets used as their epitaph.

It was just that no one would be buried after dark. Actually, according to the rules, they couldn't be buried after noon. This was a rule.

The gravekeeper lived in a large courtyard that surrounded all the houses.

There was a two-way courtyard for tomb watchers to live in. At the back of the courtyard, there were farmed animals like chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, pigs and other animals that were used as sacrifices.

In addition, there was also a large courtyard, which consisted of five mansions, eight east and west rooms, and twenty guest rooms.

He was going to stay with those who had come to deliver the funeral.

Although they arrived at night, the tomb guardian who received the notice in advance still prepared dinner for them.

Brown rice, braised bean curd with cabbage, pickles.

Because filial piety was a funeral, no one could prepare a huge meal for them.

In order to show her kindness, the Old Granny had given three White Water eggs to each of her two sons and grandchildren. Since she was from Blood Mother and had died, she had given them to the filial children and grandchildren to eat.

Wu Liang and his family who were guarding the tomb kowtowed as his wife wiped away her tears. "The old mistress is merciful. Sigh, the old master has gone. The old mistress must take care of herself!"

"Their father has gone, and they are also extremely sad. It hurts to look at them!" Because a few relatives' wives had come over because of their arrival, they didn't show any sign of affection at this time. When would they show their love?

As expected, the wives quickly gave their praises.
