C9 Funerals

009 Funeral

The awakening, the funeral, these were all major events.

Ancient funerals were especially complicated. In the feudal society, the rank of tombs was distinct. The higher the rank of official, the larger the cemetery, and the higher the grave.

Zheng Xuan mentioned, "Han Dynasty, the marquis grave height of four zhang, within the pass from the marquis to the Shu people all have their own differences."

The Tang, Song, Yuan, and Yuan dynasties were already in their infancy. When it came to the Ming dynasty, due to the success of the restoration of the Chinese people, everything sought perfection.

He was the son of the deceased, but a bastard. He could only follow behind him and carry the coffin, and those who fell to the ground were all the work of the legitimate sons. The women in the family could not help but cry.

Old Madam Wu cried and howled, "Master! You're leaving now! Leave me alone, wuu … Take me with you! Master!

That was too loud!

Deafness.

Although men and women were separated, the Old Madam Wu's voice could still be heard from far away. The volume of the voice was truly admirable.

Wu Youwei also cried, but his cry was silent. His eyes were sad, and his heart felt like it was dying.

Wu Jun was also crying, but he was howling in pain!

And because Wu Jun was the eldest son, he had to kowtow from the door of his home to the long street. If not for the fact that this was the capital city, according to the rules, he would have had to go from the door of his house to the temple, and then from the temple to the grave. At this time, Wu Youwei was not envious of him at all, it was true!

If this continued, it would be very easy to get a concussion!

The truth had proven that Wu Jun was not stupid enough to kowtow so hard. Then, he would definitely have suffered a concussion afterwards.

Even though there was no 'concussion' in the Ming Dynasty …

However, compared to Wu Youjiu's sincere "crying", these two ladies were much more likely to be acting.

Wu Jun realized that something was amiss, but what should he do at the funeral? After all, they couldn't possibly let the people of illegal brother drive him away in front of everyone right?

Old Madam Wu was also angry. This funeral was going to be so chaotic, who knows what might happen after the funeral.

As expected, he was born from a lowly servant. He refused to live a good life and insisted on creating a ruckus.

Back then, that slut was just like that. She could hook up with the old master just for a job, and even if she gave birth to a child, she would still be a debt collector.

Since their house was in the alley, this side of the alley was knocked out. At the gate, however, the ladies got on the palanquin, a kind of car with a carriage, the kind of car that could be seen on television.

The Shi family had already settled down in the capital, and the ancestors' graves were also in the capital. However, it was a bit far from here, so there were graves in the outskirts of the county.

When they reached the mouth of the alley, Wu Jun said, "illegal brother is very weak, let's get in the carriage first."

"Thank you for your understanding, brother, but I want to send father off …" Wu Youcai's eyes were red, compared to Wu Jun, it was more obvious that Wu Jun was lying.

"What else? "If you give yourself away again, you will have to lie down!" provincial graduate, who followed along with Wu You as a classmate frowned, "Look at your face, you're almost catching up to the Undead."

Liu Daxia also said, "That's right, I see that you're afraid that you'll faint in the next moment."

A few people tried to persuade Wu Youcai to get on a small carriage, but that small carriage was actually prepared for him by the old man when he was alive. It was so exquisite that it could only fit three or four people, but with his identity as a provincial graduate, it was more than enough.

Liu Daxia and Liu Jian who followed behind also got on the carriage.

There were also two burly schoolmates on horses, following the carriage like guards, but one could tell from the clothes they were wearing, they were two provincial graduate Lords.

From the looks of it, even Wu Jun, the eldest son, had to take a step back. Old Madam Wu was even angrier, it was just that this place was already outside.

They could only bear with it and go out of the outer city, where they would be inspected at the city gate. However, Wu Family was a family of officials, and since they had inherited the position of a Imperior Guardian, no one made things difficult for them. After the inspection, the funeral procession slowly left the city.
