"But I seem to remember that after Zhuang Guizhi passed away, Deng Wenying didn't seem to hold a funeral for her. She just let her stay in the yard overnight, and the next day she found a few people to take her up the mountain. That was the end of it."
The reason why Zhuang Guizhi was allowed to stay in the yard that day was because the condition of the cemetery was not yet ready.
The next day, when the arrangements for the cemetery were ready, Zhuang Guizhi was immediately sent up the mountain.
The villagers who went to help, including the neighbor in front of them, felt that this was too hasty.
But Deng Wenying said that she was the only old woman in the family now, and if a big funeral was to be held, how could she handle it alone?
She also said that there was no such thing as a mother-in-law arranging a funeral for her daughter-in-law, as it was against the rules, so it would be better to bury Zhuang Guizhi as soon as possible.
After all, this is someone else's home. Although the rest of the people didn't even have a proper funeral after Zhuang Guizhi's death, it was quite pitiful.
He didn't live a good life, and after he died he didn't even have a grand funeral. He really had a miserable life.
But they could only grumble in their hearts.
After all, they couldn't force Deng Wenying to hold a grand funeral for her daughter-in-law Zhuang Guizhi.
After listening to the neighbor's story, Lin Xi asked another question.
"When Deng Wenying's son died, was there a grand funeral?"
The neighbor nodded immediately.
"It was done, it was done. It seemed to have lasted three days and three nights. Deng Wenying specially invited everyone in the village to come!"
Lin Xi heard this but remained silent.
So it’s not that it’s against the rules for an elder to hold a funeral for a younger person, it’s just that one is his own son and the other is his daughter-in-law.
After clarifying this issue, she asked the neighbor again.
"How did Zhuang Guizhi die? Do you know?"
The neighbor sighed and said, "She just can't get over it."
Suicide?
Lin Xi's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he immediately asked, "Where is her grave? Can you take us to see it?"
The neighbor nodded hesitantly.
"Do you really want to go and see it?"
Lin Xi: “Is it inconvenient?”
"That's not the case. Forget it, go ahead."
Having said that, the neighbor got up and took them out.
Although he didn't know why Lin Xi was interested in Zhuang Guizhi's grave, he was not afraid as long as he was not asked to go to Deng Wenying's house.
Officer Xu also noticed something from Lin Xi's actions.
Could it be that this has something to do with Deng Wenying's daughter-in-law Zhuang Guizhi?
Zhuang Guizhi's grave was on the hill, and under the guidance of their neighbors, they soon arrived at their destination.
only.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Officer Xu widened his eyes slightly in surprise.
Suddenly, a luxurious tomb with a well-repaired structure and a stone tablet appeared on the open space in front of me.
Next to the luxurious tomb was a small mound of earth.
There was nothing in front of the mound. If it weren't for the fact that it looked rather out of place next to a grave, Officer Xu wouldn't have thought much about it.
The name written on the stone tablet in front of the luxurious tomb was not Zhuang Guizhi's, but the name of Deng Wenying's son.
Officer Xu frowned and asked.
"Zhuang Guizhi's grave, isn't it this little mound?"
The neighbor nodded awkwardly.
