Chapter 762 Funeral

Gongliangxiao has no children.

He had three direct disciples throughout his life.

Now there is only Liu Ji.

He held the coffin in front to clear the way, and his children and family members supported the coffin in the back.

The neighbors followed him out of Fangshi and stopped.

The funeral procession suddenly became deserted, with only Qin Yao's family and the invited coffin bearers.

There was also Lu Xiaofeng who was dressed as a servant and cried louder than Liu Ji.

The elegiac couplet on the coffin contains the name of the deceased and the names of his descendants.

Bystanders can tell who the deceased is at a glance.

A group of people carried the coffin to the main street, and there was no sound at all from the noisy streets in the past.

Many pairs of eyes looked at Qin Yao and his entourage at the funeral.

There were those who silently wiped away their tears, those who mourned, and those who took one look and turned away.

The streets were full of people on both sides, but no one dared to come forward to see him off.

Liu Ji was crying at first, but now his heart felt a little cold. He couldn't cry anymore and was filled with sadness and anger.

The eyes that were already red from crying were now widened like fighting cocks, glaring at the students who wanted to see but did not dare to come forward.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and everyone has his or her own sufferings.

Staring, Liu Ji let out a long sigh and never looked at them again.

He goes his own way!

Suddenly, the road ahead was blocked by a carriage covered with white flowers.

The car door opened, revealing Qi Xianguan in mourning clothes.

He got off the horse, looked at the shocked Liu Ji, and without saying a word, walked up to Dalang and took the white flag from Dalang's hand.

"Let's go." Qi Xianguan whispered.

After not seeing each other for a long time, Liu Ji noticed that Qi Xianguan seemed to be less familiar with him.

"Didn't you escape to Zhuangzi?" Liu Jiman asked resentfully.

The two senior brothers began to communicate in low voices while walking without looking away.

Qi Xianguan said: "I cannot disobey my great-grandfather's arrangements, but now I have decided to ignore them."

"The teacher said that he hoped that I could be more wanton, and that would be as he wished. From now on, I will only be a person who follows my heart."

At this time, Qin Yao first saw Sikong Jian standing in plain clothes under the city gate, and softly reminded the two brothers:

"There's someone the old man doesn't want to see."

Without saying a word, Qi Xianguan waved his hand to Shitou and others who were driving the carriage aside, not to let other people come near and disturb the teacher's spirit.

Shitou and others took the order.

But before they could make any move, Sikong Jian knelt down and clicked three times on the coffin.

Then, get up and leave.

The relationship between master and disciple is over.

He didn't even look at Qi Xianguan and Liu Ji, but he didn't know whether he was disdainful or afraid to look at them.

"If a person cannot live from his heart and sways from left to right, he will never know what true happiness is."

Qi Xianguan turned his head and said to Da Lang, Er Lang, San Lang and Si Niang behind him.

The four brothers and sister nodded solemnly, and they wanted to take this as a warning.

Everyone left the city and walked for an hour, finally arriving at the Feng Shui treasure land carefully selected by the mage.

Awang had brought people over yesterday to dig the grave. Under the guidance of the masters, everyone buried Gong Liangliao here.

Looking back from here, there are rolling green mountains.

Looking ahead, we can see the Nanlou Pass leading to Zijin Mansion. All travelers pass by here, so they will not be lonely or bored at all.

After the funeral was completed and everyone returned to Beijing, it was already dusk.

The mages dispersed, leaving only Qin Yao's family and Lu Xiaofeng.

There was also Qi Xianguan who looked helpless.

He looked at Liu Ji and said, "I didn't tell my family about my return to Beijing this time. The news must have reached my great-grandfather by now. I don't want to be punished, so I can only go to your house to take shelter."

"What if your parents come here to ask for help?" Liu Ji asked worriedly.

Qi Xianguan said confidently: "That won't happen. My grandparents, my parents, all love me. If they knew that my great-grandfather was going to punish me, they would only cover for me and send a message to me to run away. They would not come to find me." ”

Everyone laughed.

Qin Yao smiled and invited: "It's okay, don't worry, you can stay at my house."

"We have to pay for room and food. Our family doesn't support idle people!" Liu Jidao.

Qi Xianguan was speechless.

But then I thought about it, now that the teacher is gone, this junior brother has to rely on his own education, and he is a little extra tolerant towards Liu Jisheng.

He was too lazy to argue with him and signaled Shitou to give the money to Liu Ji.

After getting the money, Liu Ji was so happy that he even diluted the sadness of the teacher's death.

However, after it was warm in my hand for a while, I immediately handed it over to my wife.

Qin Yao nodded with satisfaction, generously gave him a small silver ingot, and said, "Save some money."

Liu Ji was overjoyed: "Okay!"

And winked at my good brother Lu Xiaofeng, I will buy you a drink later!

Lu Xiaofeng was so excited that her face turned red.

But he hadn't slept a wink all day and night, and he was tired.

He bowed solemnly to Qi Xianguan, the famous child prodigy in the capital, a disciple of Confucianism, the treasure of the old Prime Minister, and the younger brother of the eldest brother, and said goodbye!

Qi Xianguan looked at Lu Xiaofeng's retreating figure and asked curiously: "Who is this person? He is quite affectionate and righteous."

Liu Ji explained: "My good brother Lu Xiaofeng, the one who works in Jingzhao Prefecture is his uncle."

Qi Xianguan's memory is outstanding. As soon as he recalled it, he knew who it was - a famous playboy in Kyoto, and the whole family was nibbling on the elder and the younger brother!

But just now he didn't look like that person was so unreliable.

Moreover, he came to attend the teacher's funeral. I heard from Dalang that he even helped keep the spirit of the teacher all night last night.

From this point of view, these dandies are not all bad.

"How is he studying?" asked Qi Xianguan.

Liu Ji shook his head and said, "He is really not good. He is not even a student." He is far worse than him.

Otherwise, how can he be the eldest brother!

Seeing his proud look, Qi Xianguan felt that he had a long way to go in the road of education.

Qi Xianguan asked the guards to return to the manor, leaving only Shitou, and followed Qin Yao's family back to Kuanzhengfang.

The things from the funeral were still left in the yard, and the mood of everyone was depressed again.

But life has to look forward.

Qin Yao rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Tear it down!"

Everyone responded and worked together to clean up all the decorations in the house, and the yard returned to its usual state.

But when he came to Liu Ji's study and saw the wooden wheelchair parked alone against the wall, Qi Xianguan felt uncomfortable and a little breathless.

The young man stood in the place where the teacher lived for the last time, and was silent for a long time.

Liu Ji slapped his head, "I almost forgot to prepare a paper wheelchair. Now what if the teacher can't use it down there?"

Qi Xianguan, who was suddenly pulled out and couldn't extricate himself from the sadness, turned his head with resentment. Even with his good upbringing, he couldn't hold it back and shouted:

"Shitou! Fork him out!"

Shitou: "Here it comes!"

Liu Ji hurriedly begged for mercy: "It's just a joke, why take it seriously, little brother."

Qi Xianguan didn't want to pay attention to him, closed the door, and occupied Liu Ji's study openly.

Liu Ji wanted to push the door, but was stopped by Qin Yao.

"Be quiet for a while, it's time to eat."

Qin Yao took Liu Ji away. This tactless guy, didn't he see that Qi Xianguan was about to cry?

Everyone has a fragile side that they don't want to be seen by others, and Qin Yao respects and understands it.

Liu Ji scratched his head, yes, he had cried enough, and the little brother hadn't released him yet.

"What about dinner?" Liu Ji asked worriedly.

The little brother is still growing, the child can't be hungry.

Qin Yao: "Let's eat first, I'll ask Dalang to take it to him after dinner."

People of the same age can communicate better.

Liu Ji was relieved.

He could already smell the aroma of food.

It was the leftovers from the funeral, and it smelled terrible.

He rushed into the dining room impatiently and shouted: "Let's eat!"

Qin Yao shook her head helplessly. With this person around, it was really hard for her to be sad. (End of this chapter)
