"Mom and Dad, come here!" During the meal break, Zhao Xiaoyu pulled his family into an empty room.
"What's wrong? We still have to continue the vigil after dinner."
"Put this on." Mrs. Chen was quick, and there were many servants in the house who were skilled in handicrafts, so they brought this thing to her in less than half a day.
"What the hell?"
"It saves your life. Tie it on your knees and your knees won't hurt when you kneel down." The heels are very thick. It's cold now, so wearing this with cotton pants will make your knees feel much better.
"She has to be a girl!" After Zhao Dashu tied her up, he helped Li Xi tie her legs, "Li Xi, bear with it for a while, we can go home after the funeral."
Song was no longer pedantic. When they got up just now, everyone walked with a limp except her mother-in-law who didn't have to kneel. "Tie it tight, don't let it fall out."
Zhao Xiaoyu knelt down and tried it, and it was twice as easy. Oh, this thing is really good, thanks to Qing Dynasty palace dramas and TV series.
"Come on, come on, eat quickly. If you're slow you'll only have leftovers."
At night, Li Yu couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep on Xiao Yu's shoulder. Song said softly to her daughter, "Take her into the room to sleep, and you go to sleep too."
"Don't you need to guard it?"
"No need, Ruxin and the others will go back to rest soon. Your father and I will go back after midnight." Just leave one person to watch over the night and burn paper money. The head of the family said to choose according to age.
No need to stay up all night, Zhao Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief. When she returned home, she saw her grandmother also got up, "Old man, I'm tired. I'll come back to accompany you in the morning."
Not long after Zhao Xiaoyu left, people started to get up and go back to their houses. Even grandma took the lead, so why were they still kneeling? My legs are so painful, haven’t you kneeled enough?
In the room, no one had time to chat. Everyone fell asleep immediately, except Zhao Xiaoyu who was soaking her feet. The whole room smelled of stinky feet. She moved inside in disgust. Didn't they know that they would sleep better after soaking their feet?
She thought she would not be able to fall asleep, but after closing her eyes for a while, she fell into a very deep sleep.
After midnight, Zhao Dawen wanted to curse. Why should they start with the eldest brother? It will only stop for two days, and if the third brother doesn't finish his turn, there will be a funeral.
Standing alone in the deserted hall facing a coffin, Zhao Dawen's hair stood on end. He didn't feel it during the day when there were people coming and going, but now he felt extremely scared.
"Dad, today is not the seventh day, so you should stay at home well. Come and chat with us when we are all dead on the seventh day. I'm busy burning money for you now. If you burn more money, you can live in a big house and buy more servants to serve you." As he said that, he threw a handful of paper money into the brazier. The fire burned very vigorously, and he was a little less afraid.
After a while, a gust of wind blew, and the paper money in the brazier flickered. Zhao Dawen looked around nervously. Except for the lights in the main room, it was pitch black outside. The worst sin was that he was the only one involved.
The house and yard that seemed small during the day now seemed particularly large and spacious.
"Boss? What are you doing?"
Zhao Dawen really couldn't bear it anymore, so he grabbed some paper money and burned it. He ran into the house and woke up Wang who was sleeping soundly.
"Get up quickly and stay up all night with me."
What?
"Why should I stay up all night with you, boss? Can you please let me take a break? It's just two hours, and I can only sleep for two hours." Wang was so exhausted. Who the hell had the mood to keep watch with him? Doesn't the bed smell good?
"No, hurry up and get up, wait until this is over before going back to sleep, mother, I can't stand this any more."
Wang was surprised. Why did he look like he was about to cry? Hadn’t he cried enough during the day?
"What the hell is wrong with you?"
