Free Life in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 135 Provocation

In the spiritual shed, Zhou Xiaomei looked at Chu Chu and turned around and said to Zhou Mao, "Look at her virtue. It seems to be a good thing. I've never seen such a person!"

Zhou Mao sneered twice, silent and rubbed his palm.

"I'd like to see how the third brother will end this time. Chu Chu is not a loser. If her mother's family knows about this, she will have to make trouble!" Zhou Xiaomei said coldly.

Zhou Mao still said no, but he was full of jealousy. Thinking of him, he is also a talented person. Why doesn't a girl like him?

Looking at his third brother, this daughter wants to die for him. The girl tomorrow is going to die for him. Why didn't you meet a daughter who is sincere to you?

What's more annoying is that his third brother has married two wives, and he has to marry a concubine. He doesn't even have a wife. Isn't there a bowl of water?

Thinking of this, Zhou Mao was depressed. He rubbed his hands fiercely, which aroused Zhou Xiaomei's curiosity. Zhou Xiaomei glanced at Zhou Mao and saw Zhou Mao's face, so she couldn't say anything.

"Fourth brother, grandma just asked you to go to Fang's house to deliver the obi...!" Zhou Xiaomei reminded.

Zhou Mao frowned and said impatiently, "I know, you know, you are really a life-threatening ghost!"

Zhou Xiaomei immediately gave Zhou Heng a fierce white look.

As soon as Song Keren went to work, he saw Zhou Mao. Seeing this ordinary uncle, Song Keren felt very kind. He quickly ordered someone to find two snacks for Zhou Mao to eat.

Zhou Mao waved his hand repeatedly and quickly said the purpose of his trip. Song Keren almost fainted when he heard that Miao Laner had passed away.

"Why, why are you leaving now?" Song Ke asked in surprise.

Zhou Mao nodded and avoided Song Keren's eyes.

Song Keyen sighed and shook his head.

"Hey, why, why is this... It's coming too fast. Hey, I went home a few days ago, and she still... Hey..." Song Keyen sighed regretously.

Zhou Mao wanted to tell Song Keren about Zhou Ke's corpse fraud, but he was afraid to scare Song Keren. This week, the corpse fraud has become a topic that everyone likes to talk about. When Zhou Mao and Zhou Heng went to deliver the obies, almost no one dared to come when they heard that their eldest daughter-in-law had died. I'm afraid of cheating the corpse!

In this way, the Zhou family suffered, and they couldn't receive any money, so she had to pay for Miao Lan'er's funeral money by herself.

"Oh, I'll change my clothes and tell them something to do. I'll go there!" Song Keren said.

Zhou Mao nodded, took a sip of tea and withdrew.

Before he could tell Fang Shaowen, Song Keren had to leave by himself. Without Fang Shaowen, there would be no carriage. After ordering the clerk to look at the store, Song Keren hurried home. She changed into plain white clothes, picked up two pieces of silver, and went in the direction of the Zhou family.

As soon as he entered the door of the Zhou family, Song Keyen did not hear the expected cry. There was a tranquility in the courtyard of the Zhou family, and four white candles were lit in the dark spiritual shed. It is said that this candle cannot be extinguished, otherwise the dead will not see the way to life.

Under the candle are two strangely dressed corpses, two bodies lined up side, as if they were asleep. Next to the body was a fire basin burning with charcoal fire. Zhou Xiaomei, dressed in plain clothes, sat next to the brazier, burning the fire while holding the soles of her shoes.

In addition, the yard is quiet.

Song Keren was stunned. How did it look like someone died? It seems to be no different from usual. She calmly walked to the spiritual shed, and at this time, Zhou Xiaomei also turned her head.

As soon as she saw Song Keren, Zhou Xiaomei immediately stood up, put down the soles of her shoes, and nodded to Song Keren.

"Are you here?" Zhou Xiaomei asked, and this inquiry was like a usual greeting.

Song Keren nodded and whispered, "I'll see my sister-in-law off!"

Zhou Xiaomei turned around and gave up her position. Song Keren saw Zhou Tang's pale face. Somehow, the dead man's face always showed an indescribable strangeness. The pale lips and abrupt black eyebrows and eyelashes make this face impossible to see.

Song Keren also felt horrible. She couldn't help turning her head and shed two drops of tears.

"Hey, the world is impermanent, don't be sad. Burn some paper for your sister-in-law and let her go all the way. Don't be wronged!" Zhou Xiaomei said.

Song Keren quickly wiped away the tears on his face. In winter, the tears hung cold on his face, which was really uncomfortable. She took the paper money from a corner, went to the special brazier in front of the spiritual shed, and burned the paper money one by one.

Song Keren originally wanted to say something while burning, but when the words came to her mouth, she still didn't say anything.

After burning the paper money, Zhou Xiaomei came over.

"What about the rest of the family?" Song Keren asked.

Zhou Xiaomei sighed again. She blinked her eyes and looked at Song Keren.

"This morning, my grandmother asked my mother to go back to the countryside to stay for two days. Well, I just packed up, and the second brother sent her back. Dad should sleep in the house at this time, and the third brother and fourth brother went to send obi to his relatives. The second sister-in-law is taking care of Duoduo, and the child is scared. She can't eat well and sleep well these two days. Grandma is in the house. She is probably calculating the cost of the funeral. The bar master will come over in a moment. Zhou Xiaomei replied.

Song Keyen nodded. Under this gloomy sky, she suddenly felt the fragility of life. Zhou Ke and Miao Lan'er have just left. Such a life is too fragile.

"Bear by the way, I forgot to ask you last time you came here. I heard that you have been opening a store recently, haven't you?" Zhou Xiaomei asked.

Song Keren smiled and did not answer. Instead, he smiled and said, "Your lifelong event should also be solved!"

Zhou Xiaomei's face suddenly turned red. She looked at Song Keren shyly and lowered her head shyly.

At this time, Chu Chu came out of Zhou Heng's room with a basin. As soon as he saw Song Keyen, Chu Chu was stunned for a moment and then smiled.

"It's so amazing! Come on, sit in the room!" Chu Chu said.

Song Keren smiled indifferently and calmly faced Chu Chu's provocation. Song Keren was originally one of the owners of this yard, but now he wants Chu Chu to invite her into the house. Isn't this a provocation?

When Chu Chu saw that Song Keyen did not agree, he smiled, held the basin in one hand, and gently pushed his hair with the other. At this time, Song Keyen also noticed her hair, and her heart suddenly cooled down.

Chu Chu has combed the woman's hair, can it be said...

Song Keyen turned her head and her heart was like a knife. She resisted her sadness and didn't let any traces on her face.

"I'm going to see grandma!" Song Keren said to Zhou Xiaomei.

Chu raised the corners of his mouth and smiled proudly. She won this battle, so Song Keren, get out of here!

As soon as he entered the familiar room, Song Keren saw Zhou Tang crying alone. As soon as he saw Song Keren come in, Zhou Tang quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Song Keren hurried forward and took Zhou Tang's hand.

"Grandma, what's wrong with you?" Song Keren said.

"Oh..." Zhou Tang sighed and shook his head. Song Keren took Zhou Tang's hand and looked at Zhou Tang with pity. Zhou Tang gently patted Song Keren's hand.

"This family doesn't look like home now!" Zhou Tang sighed.

"Milk. Don't think about it. How can you not look like home? Isn't everyone living together? Don't think too much about it." Song Keren said.

Zhou Tang nodded and stopped talking.
