Chapter 1659 Dream

Zhou Shuren and his wife changed their clothes and went to the next door. The whole yard was decorated with white clothes and the mourning hall had been set up. Zhulan looked around and found that there was no place for her to help. Fourth Uncle had arranged the funeral affairs very carefully.

Zhou Shuren was kneeling down to burn paper. He heard the sound and saw his wife kneeling beside him. "Do you need any help?"

Zhulan took the paper money and said, "Fourth Uncle has arranged everything."

Knowing that he was about to regain his consciousness, my fourth uncle had already asked the servants to prepare. The old man was still worrying about his own funeral arrangements before his death.

Zhou Shuren has a heavy nasal tone. The elders who suddenly appeared were very kind to him. Not to mention the gifts they gave him every year, they just cared about the younger generation. He enjoyed this family affection very much. "Leave the rest to Mingteng."

Zhulan's eyes were red, "Yeah."

At this time, the message had just been sent out, and those who came to pay their respects had not yet arrived, so the mourning hall was filled with family members.

Zhulan looked at the little guy kneeling beside Mingteng. The little guy couldn't even speak fully. She said to Liu Jia, "The child is still young. Just kneel for a while."

She didn't want An Xiao to kneel at first because the child was too young, but Ming Teng insisted. This grandson named Rong was somewhat precocious and could understand Ming Teng's meaning before she finished speaking. He knelt for a while without making any noise.

Liu Jia felt sorry for her son. He was the apple of her eye. She looked at him with a sad face. She was happy that he was sensible, but also worried about hurting him. "Grandma, I'll take An Xiao down with me."

Zhulan: "Yeah."

Liu Jia went forward and told her husband to take their son away. Ming Teng turned his head and touched his son's hand, "Okay, just rest in the back."

Because the great grandfather moved back to the Rong Mansion, he also moved back with his wife and children. He thought he could be more filial to the great grandfather, but the great grandfather just passed away like this.

When Ming Teng thought of this, tears flowed down his cheeks, and he kept saying, "I hope you will have loving parents and an elder brother to support the family in your next life, and you can live for yourself in your next life."

Zhou Shuren didn't hear it clearly, but he guessed the complete words from the words he heard, and he felt very uncomfortable.

When the news of Rong Yuyun's death spread, people came one after another to pay their respects. The first to come were Rong Anxing and his sister.

Zhu Lan didn't see Yao Yao. After An Xing knelt down to burn paper money, she asked, "Where's your mother?"

Rong Anxing said in a hoarse voice, "Mother knelt down and kowtowed at the gate of the mansion, and did not come in with us. Mother said that the Fourth Master did not want to see her."

Zhulan looked up at the coffin and sighed softly.

Rong Anxing had complicated feelings towards the Fourth Grandfather. Although the Fourth Grandfather was nice to him, he never concealed his dislike for his mother. The Fourth Grandfather would only go to the Marquis' Mansion when there was something important. He reached out and touched the jade pendant he was wearing, which was given to him by the Fourth Grandfather just because he looked at it a few more times.

Rong Anxing's eyes became even redder. He grew up listening to the stories of the Rong family. The fourth grandfather was finally freed.

Rongchuan and his wife came with their children, and then people came one after another to pay their respects until the retired emperor and the empress dowager arrived in person. The retired emperor did not kneel, but burned incense himself and did not leave. Instead, he sat aside and watched.

This gesture spread to the Rong family, and more people came to the capital to pay homage. How could they not come when several princes came? The elders recognized by the emperor were also the elders of the princes.

The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess also arrived. After they offered incense, the Emperor left with the Crown Prince.

Ming Teng is the heir of the Rong family, and it was Ming Teng who received the guests. Rong Anxing was barely pulled up to help. This was a funeral of the Rong family. Since Ming Teng was the only one seen by the old man before his death, Zhou Shuren knew that the old man did not want him to interfere.

Zhou Shuren was also tired, so Boss Zhou helped his father sit down and said, "Dad, do you want to go to the back to rest?"

Zhou Shuren waved his hand, "No, I'm in good health."

Boss Zhou was worried because his father was almost sixty years old, so he arranged for a doctor to come and look after him.

Zhou Shuren looked at Ming Teng, "Please pay more attention to Ming Teng. This child is the one suffering the most."

Boss Zhou was also worried about his son, but he couldn't say anything to reassure his son, so he sighed and said, "Yeah."

The arrival of the retired emperor and the crown prince caused the Rong family to be discussed again in the capital. Even though the Rong family had few members, they were relatives recognized by the royal family.

Rong Yuyun's funeral was held with great ceremony. After the burial, the emperor issued an edict that Mingteng inherited the title and became the titled Marquis Rong'an. Mingteng insisted on accepting the edict. Afterwards, Mingteng fell ill and closed the door of his mansion to refuse all visitors.

Zhou Shuren was also sick. The reason why Zhou Shuren was sick was not because he caught a cold, but because he became sick after waking up from a dream.

Zhulan handed the cut fruit to Shuren, "Fortunately, the illness is not serious."

Zhou Shuren, "The dream was too real."

So I was a little scared. I had a fever the next day, but it was not serious.

Zhu Lan said faintly: "It's a dream."

Zhou Shuren still remembers the dream vividly. He had the dream at night right after his fourth uncle was buried. He dreamed that he went to the cemetery and saw his fourth uncle standing in front of his grave, smiling at him but not saying a word. After a while, he told him that he thanked him on behalf of the Rong family.

Afterwards, he heard many noises in his ears, and he didn't know how he reacted in his dream. Finally, he saw his fourth uncle leaving, and he seemed to see many shadows following him, and then he woke up.

Zhulan saw Shuren reminiscing again and said, "Don't think about it, it's over."

Zhou Shuren stopped thinking about it and asked, "Is Ming Teng feeling better?"

"He's much better. He'll be fine in a few days."

Ming Teng has been in good health since childhood. This time he got sick because he was too sad and didn't get enough rest. So although the disease looks serious, he will recover with good care.

Zhou Shuren said, "The eldest brother hasn't become a marquis yet, but Mingteng has become the Marquis of Rong'an first."

"Yes, Mingteng will be a marquis in the future. Liu Jia's edict came down together with the prince's order."

Zhou Shuren stopped eating the fruit. "The capital now knows how much the royal family values ​​the Rong family."

The speed at which the emperor issued his decree shows his attitude.

Zhulan said: "Mingteng's intention is to seal the mansion on the grounds of mourning."

"Okay."

Zhulan talked about the grandson and granddaughter who left home again, "I don't know if Yuyi and the others had a smooth journey back home. I was busy with the funeral these days and I realized that I haven't received any letters for some time."

Zhou Shuren was not worried. "They are surrounded by guards. The letter may not have been delivered because of something that delayed them."

Yuyi and the others were indeed delayed. They had planned to wait for the boat to dock and hand the pirate over to the government office before leaving. However, the pirate knocked out the guard on the way and was caught again. The pirate also caused a hole in the boat, but fortunately it was discovered in time and the boat docked at the shore.

The river port where we docked was quite far away, and we had to find a shipwright to repair the ship, which resulted in some delays.

Yu Jiao sat on the shore and said, "Hey, the boat has been repaired for several days."

Yuyi said, "The ship merchant said we can set off tomorrow."

Yu Jiao frowned, "It's because the merchant's guards were careless that we were delayed for so long."

Minghui sat by the fire and said, "You should be thankful that the pirates didn't catch up and save you."

Yu Jiao shrank her neck, wishing she could shrink herself into the cloak. Yu Yi hugged her sister and said, "Brother, don't scare her."
