Chapter 431: Mother's Death

After the imperial physician finished his diagnosis, he came to report to Bei Jingchu.

They bowed and pleaded guilty, saying, "Your Highness, please forgive us. We are powerless to do anything."

Soon, plain mourning clothes were hung in the Wanyuan Garden.

Zhou Huanjiu wore mourning clothes to attend his mother's funeral.

It was a heavy moment, but Zhou Yu, who had not been seen for a long time, appeared again like an invisible man.

Zhou Huanjiu didn't want to see him at first.

But she was the only one left in the huge funeral garden.

After the death of her mother, who had been dependent on her for life, she felt extremely lonely, as if a piece of her was missing and there was no way to fill the huge void.

If it weren't for the friends and colleagues who came to pay their respects and comforted her, Zhou Huanjiu didn't know whether she would have collapsed.

When Zhou Yu came, she felt the few remaining feelings of father and daughter.

She really wanted to see a relative, so she let Zhou Yu in.

She thought that no matter how vicious a person was, when facing the corpse of an old friend, he would still have some kindness in his heart.

Perhaps he also came to mourn the death of his former wife.

As a result, the first thing he said when he came in was to accuse the guests in front of them: "Jiu'er, according to the rules, you cannot mourn for your mother."

Zhou Huan looked at the person in front of him with drunkenness and resentment. It is true that good people don't live long, but bad things last for thousands of years.

Why did it happen that it was her mother who met with the accident instead of this disgusting biological father?

Zhou Yu ignored the white banner in front of him and was even complacent, as if he had finally found the evidence against Zhou Huanjiu.

This statement sounds ridiculous, but Zhou Yu provided his evidence: "The Book of Rites says in the chapter on mourning: 'The descendant of a father does not need to wear mourning clothes for his mother. '"

"Sons may not mourn for a mother who has been abandoned by her father."

"Of course, you call it a divorce, but that's not important."

"You are still studying at Hongwenguan, you didn't return all of it to the teacher, did you?"

Zhou Huanjiu's voice was hoarse and he didn't know how to refute.

She took care of her mother until she died, and saw her off to her final resting place. After her death, she offered sacrifices to her from time to time to express her longing for her.

It couldn't be more natural.

Who would stop her and accuse her of being a daughter who should not be filial to her mother?

It turns out that the ancient sages have biographies.

They stipulate that the father is the guide for the son, and that children must respect their elders and parents.

It is also a matter of course that the father is the father, but the mother is not the mother, but the father's wife.

Father’s wife is mother. Once she is no longer father’s wife, it doesn’t matter even if you were born from her belly.

She has nurtured you with all her life's energy and efforts, and fought for your survival in this world.

No matter whether she loves you or not, she cannot be your mother.

He couldn't even mourn for her.

Because, she is not your father's wife.

Zhou Huanjiu felt a sense of helplessness and frustration in his chest. He was already caught off guard by the successive deaths of his relatives and friends. He could only stand there, holding onto his mother's coffin and gasping for breath.

Zhou Yu was even more proud of this and told the purpose of his visit: "As long as you give me some money, I will marry your mother again, and you can wear mourning clothes to see her off."

"......"

All the guests in the room looked at him, shocked that there could be such a shameless person in the world.

But some people whispered: "It is indeed against the rules..."

It's just that they are dealing with a funeral, and unless there is a deep hatred, no one would go to cause trouble at this time.

Zhou Huanjiu held onto the coffin and shouted with all his strength, "Get out!"

"Get out of here!"

"Someone, someone, get him out of here!"

She was so overwhelmed by the sudden loneliness that she even developed a faint expectation for this person.
