Chapter 388: Closing the coffin
Seeing this, the seventh old man took a serious look at Du Jingyi.
In the past, I saw her as a kind-hearted person with a smile, and I thought Shao Yu’s daughter-in-law was just a good childbearing woman, but today she seems a little different.
So, without any further entanglement, he spoke directly to Gu Shaoyu.
"In that case, let's talk quickly. Once we've made it clear, we'll go back, as long as we don't delay Shao Yu's filial piety."
Du Jingyi has also met some top-notch relatives, such as the Du Si family in their family, such as the third and fifth bedrooms in the Duke's Mansion, but in the final analysis, those people just want to get more money, so they are easy to spend. .
But the seven old men in front of them were not short of money or power, so they never talked nonsense when confronting the couple. After seeing that Du Jingyi was in trouble, he immediately talked about other things. went.
With such ability, even Du Jingyi dare not underestimate him.
So she didn't waste any time saying goodbye. She sat next to Gu Shaoyu and looked at these uncles, guessing their purpose of coming.
“What does my seventh uncle want to discuss with me? Just say so.”
Gu Shaoyu is also a person who doesn't like to talk nonsense. If he has this little time to argue with them here, he really might as well go back to watch the funeral or see the children.
Seeing him open his mouth, the third old man jumped out. Although he was acting like an elder, he still understood the rules and opened his mouth to ask.
"Normally, since my sister-in-law is gone, she should be buried with my eldest brother. But two days ago, when we were looking for someone to calculate the auspicious time for my sister-in-law's burial, that person said that the eldest brother's grave can no longer be opened, otherwise the Gu family's The feng shui was about to be ruined, so we picked another place next to it. Shao Yu took a look at the drawing first. If it is suitable, we will rush to dig it out in the next two days. Don't worry, the regulations will not change. that is!"
The third old man has good intentions and thinks about the well-being of the whole family.
It's just that these words didn't sound so good to Gu Shaoyu's ears. What does it mean that they can't be buried together?
So before he could take the drawing from the hands of the third old man, he glanced at it with cold eyes, and then spoke.
"When my grandmother was still alive, she promised to be buried together with my grandfather in a hundred years. The family had made all the arrangements, but now my third uncle believed some **** man's words and shouted that they would not be allowed to be buried together. Burying together, isn’t this going to slap me in the face?”
"What Shao Yu said, aren't I also thinking about the future of the Gu family's descendants? It was this gentleman who calculated the eldest brother's grave at that time. Look, isn't this branch now prospering again? Now he says eldest brother's grave If the tomb cannot be opened, isn’t it also for you?”
When the third old man said this, his eyes were full of sincerity. Those who didn't know it thought he was really such a kind-hearted person.
On the contrary, Du Jingyi on the side asked after seeing this.
"Then where is this gentleman? I would like to ask him, since he originally chose the site for my grandfather's grave, why didn't he say not to open it again when the coffin was laid? Everyone knows that grandparents and grandparents have a deep love for each other. Over the past hundred years, Naturally, the coffins must be buried together. We didn’t say it then, but we can’t do it now? What kind of rule is this?”
"I can't tell you, a woman, but Shao Yu, you are now the head of the family who takes care of the family on behalf of the family. You have the final say until Brother Tai grows up. If something inappropriate is caused to cause trouble over this matter, Come on, don’t say that your third uncle didn’t warn you!”
The third old man just said what he said, and even threatened him.
It's a pity that this is the last thing Gu Shaoyu likes, and then he said.
"Third uncle, don't worry too much. Grandfather and grandmother must be buried together in the coffin, so no matter which gentleman says it's not allowed, it's useless to me. The descendants of the Gu family also need to remember one thing. If it can be done, it's their own fault." If you can’t succeed in your ability, it will be useless even if your ancestors are buried in the golden veins!”
One sentence left the three old masters speechless, and in the end he could only leave one sentence in frustration.
"Believe it or not, it's not my problem if something happens anyway!" After saying this, he left. He was a little worried when he came, but when he left, he became angry. It was uncomfortable for the servants of the Gu family to see it. Dare to say one more word.
Seeing that the third old man, one of the two backbones, was gone, the other people unconsciously looked at the seventh old man.
But the seventh old man was not as showy and arrogant as the third old man. Seeing that Young Master Gu's attitude was harder than a stone, he didn't say anything more, got up and left.
When he left, he didn't even say a word, obviously because he didn't want to quarrel with the couple.
Once the backbone is gone, the other people will naturally disperse as well.
After they all left in a hurry, Gu Shaoyu asked.
“When you were choosing an auspicious time, did you ever hear the gentleman say that you should not be buried together?”
“No, everything is normal, so I don’t know what the trouble is with my third uncle?”
Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu fell silent.
If they were resolute and had evil intentions in their hearts, they should have tried to dissuade them in various ways. Why did they leave after a few disagreements?
But if this matter is dispensable, why do you have to wait so long and refuse to leave?
So, what these old guys did made the couple a little confused, but they were not entangled people. The most important thing now was to let their grandmother be buried smoothly, and we would talk about the rest later.
When the two of them turned back to the mourning hall, the carriages outside the door also started to move.
After the seventh old man got on the carriage, he saw that there was someone else inside, and that was his eldest son Gu Yanguang. He looked at his father with a slightly complicated expression and asked.
“Father, does Shaoyu agree?”
The seventh old man shook his head, but he was much calmer than the son next to him.
“Then when the coffin is opened, if Shaoyu discovers something fishy, wouldn’t he investigate those matters thoroughly? If we are implicated, wouldn’t it be in trouble?”
Gu Yanguang's words fell into the ears of the seventh old man word by word. Of course he understood what his son was worried about, but only by remaining calm even when the mountains are collapsing can a person remain invincible. Obviously the eldest son did not do this well.
So, he said with a serious face.
"Why are you panicking? He may not be able to notice it. Even if he notices it for a moment, he won't be able to find out. We have been operating in Jinling City for so many years. If he can't even handle it, why are we trying to plan something big? You are the same, at all. If your son's affairs are in such a hurry, how can you, as a father, entrust you with the burden of the family in the future?"
A few words made Gu Yanguang sober up a lot.
After taking a few deep breaths, he said to his father.
