Chapter 315: Grand Funeral
Shen couldn't stand it any longer, she suddenly broke away from Shen Ying'er and Qi's mother, raised her hands and slammed the window "bang bang bang"!
The two people who were making out in the room were suddenly startled. Zhou screamed and He Weian instantly became weak.
He hurriedly stood up, not even bothering to put on his clothes, and rushed out... He wanted to see who was so audacious as to ruin his plans? He was determined to beat that person to death!
Seeing this, Shen's eyes flushed as she rushed forward to tear that beast apart...
Shen Ying'er's eyes widened in shock. She quickly covered Shen's mouth and dragged her back with all her strength.
The range of the Ghost Lady's 'Invisibility Talisman' is limited. If they are too far away from her, their figures will be immediately exposed!
I don’t know who the servants in this mansion are loyal to... What if they are discovered now and can’t escape after being caught?
We must not act rashly now!
Shen refused to give up and continued to try to break free from Shen Ying'er's restraints...
He Weian clearly heard strange rustling sounds around him. He pulled his clothes tightly together, frowned, and followed the sound...
Mother Qi was terrified and held her breath. Seeing him getting closer and closer to her master, she rushed out and quickly picked up the big stone next to the rockery...
"who?!"
As soon as He Weian finished speaking, Mother Qi ran behind him, picked up a stone, and smashed it on his head with all her strength!
"Ugh!" He Weian groaned, collapsed to the ground, and lost consciousness immediately.
The next moment, He Weian's widowed sister-in-law Zhou heard something strange in the courtyard and rushed out without even fastening her clothes. "Second brother!? What are you doing..."
Before she could finish her words, Mother Qi, who was hiding behind the door, attacked again, raised a stone and smashed it on Zhou's head. Zhou fainted immediately and fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing that the two people with bloody heads had fainted, Shen Ying'er immediately pulled Shen forward quickly and used a talisman to make He Weian and Zhou disappear together.
"..." Mother Qi was filled with panic. She quickly threw the stone in her hand away and looked at Shen with tears in her eyes. "Husband, Madam...did this servant kill someone? This...this...what should I do?"
Shen's eyes swept over the two people on the ground, then looked towards the courtyard where half a white banner was already hung. She laughed coldly, "Oh, isn't the He family going to hold a funeral? Then let them do it! Let them do it in a grand and lively manner!"
She gritted her teeth and forced herself to stand up, a fierce look flashing in her eyes, "Mother Qi, send our people out immediately and spread the word. Have everyone get up tomorrow morning to send He Weian off for the last time!"
"Also, they sent people to seal off the courtyards of the old lady and the young master, saying that the master would not allow them to attend the funeral..."
"......" The last journey? Shen Ying'er's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
These two people are still breathing, their lives are not in danger... Could it be that Shen wants to kill them to silence them?!
She was just thinking to herself when she heard Shen's soft voice say to her: "Doctor Shen, please do me a favor. I, Shen Xinrou, will reward you handsomely afterwards!"
......
The next morning, the gates of the He Mansion were opened, white banners fluttered in front of the gate, and guests came to pay their respects in an endless stream, most of whom were court officials dressed in official uniforms who had just returned from court.
The house was filled with gloom and sadness, with smoke curling in the air and whispers lingering in the mourning hall.
"Lord He was in his prime and had a bright future. How could he pass away so suddenly?" An official twirled his beard with a look of regret on his face.
"Who says he isn't? I saw him yesterday when I left court. He looked very energetic. How come today he is so..."
"Alas!" Another official shook his head and sighed, "May Lord He rest in peace and ascend to heaven soon, free from the sufferings of this world!"
Everyone was talking about it, and there were sighs in their words.
Old Madam He, who was not far away, couldn't hear what they were whispering. Looking at the crowd who came to pay their respects, her brows twisted into knots and her face turned ashen.
"Hmph!" She secretly rolled her eyes, covered her mouth with her hands, and said to the nanny beside her with a look of jealousy, "That bitch is really taking advantage of my son... She even had all these officials come to see her off... She got a good deal!"
Glancing at the steward writing the gift account not far away, she felt a surge of anger in her heart, "It's been so long, why haven't I seen the Shen family yet?"
Knock, knock...
Just at this moment, a dull knocking sound suddenly came from the heavy cypress coffin!
The guests present suddenly fell silent and subconsciously looked towards the coffin.
Old Madam He, who was only allowed out of the courtyard this morning and could not read a single word, and He Rui, the son of the Shen family who had just arrived, were stunned in their place, then looked at each other with pale faces...
He Rui looked around with a pale face, looking at the elegiac couplets in the hall, wondering why it was his father who died instead of his mother?
Old Madam He thought to herself: Could it be that the father and son were incompetent and negligent...that Shen was sealed in the coffin before she was even dead?
She was horrified, fearing that her plan would be exposed, so she immediately rushed to the coffin and cried loudly, trying to cover up the strange noise.
He Rui, with his head in a mess, was afraid that someone would accuse him of being unfilial... He also rushed over and fell on the coffin, crying loudly...
"Father! Father, please come back!"
"How could you just abandon us like this? Wuuuuuuuu... Open your eyes, open your eyes and look at us!"
Mrs. He was so nervous that she couldn't think straight for a moment. When she heard her grandson crying, her emotions surged up instantly. She beat her chest and stamped her feet, crying heartbreakingly:
"My poor son! Why did you just leave me like this? How can I live with you gone? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." Her voice was shrill, as if it contained endless sorrow.
The grandfather and grandson cried so sincerely that it was heartbreaking to hear and tears to see.
Seeing this, the guests around couldn't help but offer words of comfort:
"My condolences, old lady..."
"Mr. He, please take care of yourself... From now on, you will be your mother's only support!"
After hearing this, Madam He’s crying suddenly stopped. She always felt that... something was wrong.
"Speaking of which, Madam He has a miserable life. Not only did she become a widow at a young age, but she also worked hard to raise Mr. He into a talented person. Now she has to die with her young son. It's really pitiful and lamentable..."
Boom!!!
The discussions around her drifted into Madam He's ears, and it was like thunder!
No matter how these people sound, it seems like they are saying that the person who died was her son Wei'an?
