Chapter 291 (1/2)
Xie Jingxi didn't want to be involved in the front yard, especially now when there is a brain lawsuit, but there are still many unsolved things about Gu Heng. He won't have no clue to find her at this time. Therefore, Xie Jingxi had to suppress his irritability and change his clothes and go to the front yard.
Fang Dai followed her, ”madam, the young master is not at home. At this time, why don't you find a reason to shirk it? It's so late. Even if you want to be mourned, you'll have a look in the morning. You're still hurt.”
”You think I want to go.” Xie Jingxi wrapped several layers of cloth around her arm to fix it. When the wound moved greatly, it would still hurt. When everything was properly dressed, she started to go out. ”Everyone must be there at this time. We should give this face to emotion and reason, and I guess we may have to lose in advance.”
The front yard is brightly lit, with dim yellow light and snow-white flags intertwined. There is no sadness, but suffocation.
When Xie Jingxi arrived, the front of the spirit was full of people. Hou Ye Gu Heng stood at the top, followed by brother Jian, aunt Fang, and several nephews in the second room. When Xie Jingxi entered, Fang Dai was stopped outside.
Xie Jingxi winked at Fang Dai and motioned to her. Fang Dai stood on his feet and waited outside.
”The reason why I call you here is because there will be a funeral in the middle of the night.” the Duke glanced at the people. ”You are working hard.”
Sure enough, he wanted to give Zeng's funeral in advance. He said he wanted to be with Gu Qing, but there was always a difference between white hair and black hair. Zeng had to take one step first. No one would care about the funeral day or night. Xie Jingxi glanced at it. Everyone was extremely silent and quietly kept the last moment.
Hou Ye has rarely appeared since Zeng's death. Xie Jingxi had not seen him several times before. At this meeting, he stood in front of the spirit, but he was a little thin and lonely, but he looked a little too sad. And Gu Heng, after a few days, he has obviously reduced a lot from the last time I saw him, and his face is very haggard. Did Zeng have such a heavy weight in their hearts? Or do they play more important than people.
Anyway, she can't show any sadness to the indifferent people. Even now, she can't squeeze out the slightest sad emotion, so she has to stand numbly and silently.
”Eldest daughter-in-law, stand in front.” Hou Ye whispered with his back to the people.
Xie Jingxi came late, so she took advantage of the situation and stood at the back. Leng Buding was named by the marquis. She subconsciously glanced at the people, but the others didn't respond. She had no objection to what she should have stood in front, so she had to follow suit.
When passing Zou's front, Xie Jingxi sensitively noticed that her eyes followed her back. I don't know if she was too sensitive. She always felt that her eyes were uncomfortable.
Xie Jingxi stood next to Gu Heng, took a wrong step and didn't stand side by side. Hou Ye looked back at her arm and didn't say anything. Gu Heng didn't even give her Yu Guang. The whole atmosphere was extremely strange.
Her head is getting lower and lower. As the nominally daughter-in-law of the Marquis, she just looks like she's standing here. She doesn't care. Whether Gu Heng or the Marquis can't affect her.
”Sister-in-law, it's convenient to come to the back hall with me.” about half an hour later, Gu Heng suddenly opened his mouth. He still stood with his back to her, and his voice was almost inaudible.
Xie Jingxi thought it was auditory hallucination. For a moment, Gu Heng didn't react. Gu Heng glanced at her with Yu Guang, ”why, my sister-in-law is afraid of me?”
She frowned and subconsciously looked at the Marquis, but the Marquis didn't seem to hear it. She said nothing at all. She couldn't help sighing and said what it was.
Gu Heng is not the original Gu Heng, but Xie Jingxi has not frightened him. After so many years, the original gratitude and resentment between right and wrong has become far away. It seems hypocritical to care about it.
Gu Heng took the lead in walking to the back hall. Xie Jingxi followed up after making a mistake.
Fang Dai couldn't see Xie Jingxi in her sight. As soon as she was nervous, she subconsciously wanted to break in, but was stopped by Zhao Guan's family outside. Zhao Guan's family made a silent gesture to her and whispered, ”it's all right, Fang Dai.”
Fang Dai's family said it's okay, but she's hard to break in. But what's the matter? Gu Yun ordered her not to leave her wife for half a step. Why should she be limited to the Marquis of laoshizi? In view of the countless lessons before, as long as her wife is away from her sight, she'll be at sixes and sevens. What can I do!
Xie Jingxi was also inexplicable. It was not long before Zeng's funeral. At this time, he invited her to the back hall for what to do, and the Marquis didn't ask.
”Sister-in-law.” Gu Heng stopped and looked back at her. ”You have a wound in your arm. It's better to come in and have a rest.”
He said caring words in his mouth, but there was no temperature in his eyes and tone. He had the same attitude as usual, but it was good. They should have this atmosphere.
”If you call me in for this, I don't think I need it very much. I didn't intend to mourn, so I'm not tired.”
”Oh.” Gu Heng moved miserably, ”sure enough, my sister-in-law will still refuse all my requirements. If you don't want to agree with me, take it as what my father said.”
Xie Jingxi frowned. It was terrible. Now more than ever, she wanted Gu Yun to be by her side, even if she just stood.
Gu Heng went to her side by side and whispered, ”since my sister-in-law is insincere, there's no need to stand there and look like it. There's no need to follow the funeral, but the overall situation of the family still needs to be looked after. After all, you're the serious daughter-in-law of the Marquis, aren't you?”
Before she could figure out the oddity of this remark, she heard him say again: ”since eldest brother wants Hou's house, he should always do something. What do you say, sister-in-law.”
When Gu Heng left, Xie Jingxi was still stunned. What did he mean by his inexplicable words? Did he intend to give up the Hou house or demonstrate with her? Since he saw Gu Yun's intention to stay, did he declare war with her?
Why do you always think something is wrong.
But she did stand there insincerely. The LORD said so. She can't stand in the back hall with a thick face. If there is no one in the Hou house later, she probably needs to go out and look after it. It's better to have a rest.
When Fang Dai saw Gu Heng coming out alone, he became more and more worried and worried. He almost rushed over regardless. The Zhao family didn't stop her, but said, ”madam is injured and shouldn't stand for a long time. The Marquis promised. Miss Fang Dai doesn't have to worry.”
Hou Ye promised his wife to go to the back hall to rest. Why don't you just let them go back? Fang Dai's uneasy heart was not relieved because of his explanation. ”Zhao Guan's family, my wife is injured and needs to rest. It's better to ask Hou ye to show me and allow me to accompany her back to rest for a while. It's the same when something happens.”
Zhao Guan's family smiled, ”Miss Fang Dai, no matter what, grandma and grandma are the eldest daughter-in-law of Hou's house. It's better to do our best on this occasion. It hasn't been a long time. You see, the guard of Honor outside has been ready.”
Fang Dai was speechless. He had come to show himself. At the last moment, there was no reason to retreat at this time. Mrs. Hou's funeral was just a moment and a half. Fang Dai endured and waited patiently again.
Xie Jingxi also waited patiently for this moment. When there was a noise outside, she got up and pushed the door, but the door didn't open.
