Chapter 151
White lanterns have also been hung at the entrance of the Zhu family's mansion, and two white wreaths are neatly placed on both sides of the stone lions at the entrance.
Zhu Xunuo was slightly startled when he saw these things, and his lips under the veil lost a bit of blood.
"Miss, you are here. If you don't come, you won't be able to see Mr. Zhu for the last time!" At this moment, the closed door of the Zhu family mansion suddenly opened in the heavy rain, and from the door
An old housekeeper holding an umbrella walked out of the house. The old housekeeper was a little surprised when he saw Zhu Xunuo, and then he stretched out his hand and took Zhu Xunuo towards the house.
The old housekeeper had just taken two steps when he saw me standing at the door. He was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Zhu Xunuo in confusion and asked: "Miss, who is this?"
Zhu Xunuo explained: "Steward Liu, this is the doctor I invited!"
"Hey, it's useless, miss. The boss has already invited a famous doctor from the provincial capital to take a look. The old man has run out of energy. The people from the funeral home will be here soon!"
"People from the funeral home?" Zhu Xunuo frowned and said, "Why are the people from the funeral home coming here so early? Isn't it going to be cremated three days later?"
"Miss, you have been out for too long, and you still don't know the old man's condition. He is going to commit suicide. He must be cremated before dawn today." When Butler Liu said this, a look of panic flashed across his face.
"Fake corpse?"
When I heard what Butler Liu said, I was a little surprised. This man was not dead yet, but he was trying to swindle his body. I have never heard of such a thing.
"Where is grandpa!" Zhu Xunuo asked anxiously after hearing that the people from the funeral home were coming and that his grandpa was about to be cremated.
"It's right in the main hall...Miss, please go quickly. I'll help you delay the people at the funeral home so you can take a few glances at grandpa!" As Butler Liu said, he poked his head out of the door and looked out.
When we came out, the old housekeeper treated Zhu Xunuo very well.
It turns out that he just opened the door because he heard the sound of our car and thought it was the funeral home's car coming, so he came out to pick up people in advance.
"Brother Pi, come into the house with me, but you have to look carefully to see if my grandfather's soul has not left yet!" At this moment, Zhu Xunuo put all her hopes on me and asked me to help her.
I'm looking for his grandfather's soul in the house so that I can bring him back to the world.
What Zhu Xunuo doesn't know is that her grandfather's soul is in the human skin lantern in my hand. As long as I put the lantern in front of her grandfather's body, the soul will automatically return to its place, and his grandfather will be able to live.
.
Under the leadership of Zhu Xunuo, I entered the Zhu family's mansion. The interior of this four-open and four-in-one mansion is even more low-key and luxurious, with rockery pavilions, corridors and flower gardens.
Walking in the corridor of the courtyard, I carefully looked at the condition of the flowers and plants in the Zhu family's courtyard. These flowers and plants were withered more seriously than the trees outside, and the Zhu family seemed to turn a blind eye to all this.
Another thing that makes me feel very strange is that Mr. Zhu passed away not long ago, but there was no crying in the main hall at the end of the corridor. There was only a burst of chanting at the end of the corridor, as if someone was performing a ritual.
Zhu Xunuo heard the sound of chanting from the lobby and couldn't help but quicken his pace. When we arrived at the main hall, we saw a black coffin placed on two benches in the center of the lobby, with the lid of the coffin not yet closed.
, Mr. Zhu, wearing a shroud and with a black face, was lying in the coffin.
