Soon, the two groups met. Tian Mingwu carefully stopped the carriage, turned his head to look inside the carriage, and then got off the carriage to greet the families who had come.
"General Tian, there's no need to be so polite with us. Business is more important."
"Yes, don't miss your wife's auspicious time."
......
After greeting each other, everyone set off together to the cemetery they had purchased in advance.
The grave mountain was a hill where the feng shui had been checked by a high monk from Huanglong Temple. The An family took the lead in purchasing it, and Tian An paid the money to buy it.
According to the Feng Shui advice of the monk, a site was chosen on the mountain to build the mausoleum. Although the mausoleum is not large, it has all the necessary facilities.
When everyone arrived, the monks who were invited to perform the ritual had already arrived. The servants had already placed all the offerings on the altar, and the monks had also set up the incense table.
The person in charge of building the mausoleum took Tian Mingwu to the completed mausoleum and asked him to inspect the results.
Since it was An Wan's business, Tian Mingwu inspected her extremely carefully. Fortunately, the craftsman introduced by the An family had excellent skills, and Tian Mingwu was particularly satisfied.
After the inspection was completed, the senior monk in charge of the tomb relocation ceremony looked at the sun and said, "The auspicious time has arrived, bury the dead..."
When An Wan was buried in Jinning County, she only had a thin coffin, a hill of yellow earth, and a tombstone made of a board.
After so many years, that thin coffin must have been corroded by mud and rain and become tattered.
When Tian Mingwu regained his memory and decided to take her back, Tian An spent a huge amount of money to order a top-quality golden nanmu coffin from the best coffin shop in the capital.
He also selected the finest fabrics from the storehouse and made her several sets of clothes for all four seasons, in accordance with the latest styles of clothing worn by women in the capital. He also made her several sets of headwear.
When Tian Mingwu went to Jinning County, he took away a coffin, a set of clothes, and a set of headgear.
At this time, the coffin had been replaced with the golden nanmu coffin that Tian An bought.
After Tian Mingwu and a few others carried the coffin into the tomb, they placed the burial objects that had been prepared in advance.
In addition to the clothes and head ornaments prepared by Tian An, the burial objects also included some daily necessities, such as bowls, chopsticks, cups, basins, ornaments, embroidery, etc.
In addition to what Tian An prepared, the An family also prepared a box, as well as what Xiao Chen prepared, and even the Gu, Wu, Zuo, Song, and Peng families prepared one.
After the burial objects were moved, the tomb was sealed.
The monk began to preside over the ritual, and Tian Mingwu and several children knelt in front of the grave to burn paper.
The rest of the people also mourned in silence until the ceremony was over, then they came forward one by one to bow to the deceased and burn a stick of incense.
After all the ceremonies were over, Tian Mingwu took Tian An's siblings to the front of the grave, planted a peach tree on each side, and then led everyone down the mountain.
He wanted to plant the remaining peach trees himself and fill the mountain with peach trees for An Wan. Therefore, Tian Mingwu named this mountain Peach Blossom Mountain.
After returning from Taohua Mountain, Mrs. An has been in a bad mood and immersed in sadness.
Only when he saw Tian An's sister and brother did his eyes regain clarity.
Everyone knew that she couldn't bear the sadness of seeing a loved one die.
Seeing this, Tian An stepped forward and asked Duke An to allow Madam An to stay with her in the general's mansion for a while.
Duke Anguo thought that letting his mother live with Tian An might bring her some comfort, so he agreed.
After sending the old lady to the general's mansion, he asked the nanny to go back to the Duke's Mansion to pack up the things that the old lady often used.
Tian An stayed with the old lady for the entire day after returning home, except when she took a nap at noon.
Try to avoid giving her time to be alone with her thoughts.
It was not until after dinner that Tian An took his pillow and went to the old lady's room to sleep on the bed.
The old lady saw Tian An coming to her room with a pillow in her arms and thought she was going to give it to her. "Girl, grandma has a pillow here, no need to take it anymore."
Tian An went into the inner room with a smile and put the pillow on the bed before coming out and saying, "Grandma, this is my pillow. I want to sleep with you tonight."
The old lady said in disbelief, "You want to sleep with me?"
Tian An walked up to her, took her hand and acted coquettishly, "Grandma, I have never slept with an elder before!
I am about to reach the age of 15. When I do, I will be a grown-up girl and I will feel embarrassed to sleep with my elders in the future.
Just let me feel it now while I’m still young!”
Tian An was willing to sleep with the old lady, which was exactly what the old lady wanted, so she naturally would not refuse.
Hearing her say this, he immediately remembered the engagement between Tian An and Zhao Yiming, and felt that his granddaughter would soon become someone else's.
It has only been a short time since my granddaughter came back to me. I didn't have much time to develop feelings for her in the past. Now that there is such a good opportunity, I must seize the time to spend with her.
Otherwise, there will be no chance to get closer to my granddaughter in the future.
When she was with Tian An and Old Madam An, the sadness on her face was much less.
Before going to bed, Tian An often took the old lady out for a spin, asking her to wash her face with him, do a facial massage, and then apply a facial mask.
After all the operations, the old lady praised her for enjoying herself.
Tian An raised her chin proudly, "Granddaughter, I have a unique skill! Grandma, do you want to try it?"
Madam An's curiosity was also piqued by her. "Unique skills? What unique skills?"
Tian An smiled nimbly, "You'll know once you try it. I guarantee you'll be able to sleep comfortably until dawn after trying it."
Afterwards, Tian An asked the maid to bring all the things she had prepared into the house.
Then let the old lady sit down.
The old lady did not suspect anything and did as Tian An said.
