Chapter 250 Belated Guilt Fei Yanggu's Funeral
Chapter 250 Belated Guilt Fei Yanggu's Funeral
Xinghui thought back to the beginning, when he found out that Rouze had caught a cold by taking advantage of his father and secretly increased the dosage of the medicine, he had severely reprimanded Rouze.
It turned out that he was just a villain in vain.
----------
The funeral was surprisingly well organized.
Although Fei Yanggu died in a hurry, he died on New Year's Eve.
But for a big family like Ulanala, even if the head of the family passes away, everything still has its own rules.
The people who came to pay their respects did not notice his presence, except for seeing that Yixiu, Rouze and Xinghui had almost no communication with each other.
But everyone just thought that it was Fei Yanggu's death that made the children so sad that they were speechless.
Everyone was confused and admired in their hearts that the next generation of the Ulanara family was truly filial and that Fei Yanggu had raised his children well.
Yixiu was wearing mourning clothes and standing alone at the side. Although Yinzhen was a younger generation, he only came to express his condolences briefly and then went to talk with other people.
The young man has grown up now, and standing in the crowd, Yinzhen has been able to handle it fluently, but now behind him, there is no longer the gentle eyes of a girl.
Yixiu's face showed no expression of either sadness or joy, and it was hard to tell what mood she was in. She just lowered her head and looked at the floor, looking a little dull.
But if this point is ignored, this funeral would be no different from any other funeral of a wealthy family in the capital.
Only the fourteenth prince Yinzhen seemed to feel something different.
In his impression, his fourth sister-in-law rarely mentioned Fei Yanggu.
Moreover, she is always polite to others and is not someone who is easily swayed by sadness.
But he couldn't think of any other reason besides this.
Dorogege looked genuinely grief-stricken.
She cried bitterly, clinging to the coffin with both hands, and refused to leave for a long time, muttering words like "General".
Rouze stood behind Duoroggege, also crying with tears in her eyes, looking so pitiful that even Yinzhen, who was busy, couldn't help but look back at her.
Unlike Duoluo Gege and Rouze, Xinghui's expression was also a little dull.
There were dark circles under his eyes, and he tried to keep his back straight as he socialized with the male guests in the front.
Li Rongbao looked behind Xinghui, frowned and asked, "Where's Xingchan? Why doesn't he come out?"
Xingchan is just an insignificant bastard, with no achievements to his name.
If Li Rongbao hadn't mentioned it, everyone present would have taken it for granted that Fei Yanggu only had Xinghui as his son.
"The border war is urgent and more important than family affairs." Xinghui paused, obviously not expecting that someone would think of Xingchan:
"The border is far away, and the journey is inconvenient. Father can't wait for Xingchan to come back to bury him, so I, as his elder brother, told him not to come back."
Xinghui responded casually, but secretly cursed Li Rongbao for being nosy.
In Xinghui's heart, if Xingchan had not taken advantage of his father's illness to compete with him for the title, he would not have taken action.
He just wished that Xingchan, this arrogant fool, would die on the frontier, and he didn't even write a letter to inform him.
only......
Xinghui frowned. He thought Fei Yanggu had been tidying up, so he went into the house to clean up, but he didn't seem to find what he was looking for...
Forget it. There are more and more people coming now, and he has to deal with them first.
After hearing Xinghui's answer, Li Rongbao frowned.
Li Rongbao remembered that when he was a child, Xingchan was always like himself and didn't like to play with those young men who talked about their careers.
It’s just that Li Rongbao is truly a free spirit, while Xingchan is afraid of attracting the attention of Duoluo Gege and Xinghui.
He remembered that Xingchan once told him that this was something his biological mother had repeatedly warned him about before she died.
Li Rongbao covered his eyes and stopped talking to Xinghui. He obviously did not believe these righteous words.
Originally, he felt strange when he heard that Xing Chan was going to guard the border.
A family like theirs would not send their child to the battlefield to die as a low-ranking soldier, even if the child was a bastard or incompetent.
You know, although generals will lead the troops to boost morale when two armies are fighting, there is a world of difference between having someone to protect them and the soldiers running away under their horses.
Emperor Kangxi, as the ruler, was grateful for Xinghui's loyalty and bravery. He and Xinghui had known each other since childhood, but he did not think that the other party was a selfless person.
Fortunately, Xinghui, who had just been praised by the emperor, obviously didn't care what Li Rongbao thought.
He had already turned around and started chatting with several other equally popular young generals.
------------
The time for the funeral soon arrived.
As the etiquette officer shouted "rise", heavy snow began to fall from the sky.
Everyone followed the coffin, step by step, but the footprints would soon be covered by the falling snow, along with the secret that could not see the light, and would be temporarily buried in the yard.
On this day, several princes who were familiar with Yinzhen were present.
But they were of noble status and just stood aside to watch the ceremony, just dressed more simply than usual.
Duoluo Gege is considered the elder of the brothers.
After the coffin came back, several brothers came forward to comfort their aunt.
Yinzhen took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness and finally came to greet Yixiu: "Fourth sister-in-law."
He bowed politely and said, "The dead cannot be resurrected. Please accept my condolences, Sister-in-law."
For the first time, Yinzhen felt that he was tongue-tied and didn't know how to comfort his sister-in-law and make her feel better.
Finally, it was Yixiu who spoke first: "I haven't seen Fourteenth Brother for quite a while. You seem to be more stable than before."
Not stable!
I’m just afraid that if I say too much I’ll annoy you, and I’m also afraid that I’ll make you sad, so I just have to shut up!
Fourteenth Prince Yinzhen silently explained to Yixiu in his heart.
But what he said was in response to Yixiu: "Thank you, Fourth Sister-in-law. After the New Year, it will be time for me to leave the palace and start my own household."
"When my mansion is built, please invite Fourth Brother... Fourth Sister-in-law to come with me."
Fourteenth Prince Yinzhen stood in the snow for quite some time, with snowflakes still on his shoulders that had not yet melted.
Yixiu looked at the man in front of her. He had a tall and straight figure. She didn't realize that at some point, the boy's thin shoulders had become as broad as an adult's.
"Uncle Fourteen!"
Honghui ran over and hugged Yinzhen's thighs. He was fished out from under the quilt early in the morning by Aunt Jianqiu, who was sent back home by his mother.
First, she came to Ulanala's mansion, and then followed a group of people to pay respects. She was not accompanied by her sister Nian Shilan, and she felt very depressed.
Although everyone said that Fei Yanggu was his mother's father, he had no impression of this cheap grandfather.
Now that I finally saw my familiar relatives, I finally cheered up.
Yinzhen bent down and scratched Honghui's nose.
This little thing seems to be able to clearly distinguish who is its own people.
