Reborn to Be A Noble Wife - Chapter 605
Chapter 605 Where to Burn It
The group went in, made separate offerings, and lit incense and candles.
After the first round of worship, Qu Zhicheng took one of his sons and one of his nephews to take care of some chores in the left side hall.
If there were male guests coming over in a while, they were also received in the left side hall, and the right side hall was reserved for the women’s families to rest.
The puja for Koshi is mainly for women.
Yu Chun tied Qu Mo Ying’s rough white belt, helped Qu Mo Ying kneel down on the futon on one side, Yu Dong moved a fire pot over, placed his own prepared basket on one side of Qu Mo Ying’s side, and the other Luo’s prepared basket was placed a little farther away, looking like he was going to burn his own first and then Luo’s prepared one.
There were seats on one side of the main hall, Qu Xuexin’s body was not feeling well, Qu Zhizhen had long ago told her to rest on one side, Luo would this time accompany her to sit on one side.
Qu Mo Ying is Xiao Yue’s own daughter, so naturally she should kneel and burn paper money and clothes.
“Mother, how is this belt … different from big brother’s and second brother’s?” Seeing Qu Mo Ying’s belt, Qu Xuexin coughed lowly and asked Luo in a low voice.
“She prepared it herself.” Luo did not care and said, her face full of concern, “How are you, do you need to be tight, do you want to go to the side hall to rest for a while.”
“Mother, I’m fine, I can still hold up, if I can’t hold up for a while, I’ll go to the side to rest.” Qu Xuexin softly said.
“It’s actually okay that you’re not here, Mother is!” Luo was still uneasy, her daughter’s face was just a little too bad.
“Mother don’t worry, just wait for fourth sister to finish burning these little garments and leave.” Qu Xuexin smiled and casually said, seeing that she was holding on strongly.
Luo’s heart ached to death, but Qu Xuexin sat so strongly, she could not do anything, only expected Qu Mo Ying to hurry up and finish burning, watched Qu Mo Ying burning slowly, one piece at a time very carefully, said to the granny beside her, “Let the fourth young lady burn faster, watch the fire, a moment to extinguish is not good.”
The granny answered the order and went over, carrying the basket placed behind a pillar on one side towards Qu Mo Ying again from behind.
Yudong saw it and came over with a quick eye and hand, picking up the basket, “The ones in this basket are not yet needed, just put them aside first.”
“The First Mistress is afraid that it is unlucky for the fire to go out.” The granny whispered.
“It’s not harmful, it won’t go out.” Yu Dong said, “Our young lady burns it slowly to appear filial, it’s always not good to burn it out early if there are guests coming to worship.”
Granny think also think is this reason, in fact, is not necessary to burn too fast, these burned, also have to burn paper money, anyway, can not let the filial son, filial daughter kneeling nothing to do is not!
“Then burn them faster.” The granny squarely stood behind Luo’s mother and daughter, knowing that the eldest miss wanted to wait until she had burned these clothes before leaving, and had to remind her at this time.
Yu Dong said perfunctorily, “Yes, yes, our lady will burn up fast.”
Seeing that the granny returned without any success, the basket was still put to the side of the pillar, far away from Qu Mo Ying, Qu Xuexin’s eyes flashed a trace of displeasure, she had gone through a lot of trouble to send these things to Qu Mo Ying’s face, and if Qu Mo Ying didn’t accept it, wouldn’t she have wasted her efforts for nothing?
Whether it is now, or later, she needs her second brother’s help, if this cast is unsatisfactory to her second brother, it will be very difficult to get her second brother’s help in the future, and this time, she is only allowed to succeed, not to fail.
No matter what, he couldn’t let Qu Mo Ying escape.
Qu Mo Ying is not good, he can only be good, in order to let the second brother to help more help, with their own identity, even if they enter the Prince’s East Palace, if there is no one to help, support, in the end, I’m afraid that there will not be a good end, this point Qu Xuexin in this period of time to think about has been very clear.
She went to the Crown Prince’s Eastern Palace to enjoy glory and wealth, not to be subjected to it.
Even if she was already a step behind people now, she still believed that she could gain the favor of the Crown Prince, who treated her differently, and this had been clear from the first time she had met him.
As long as she has another chance to see His Highness the Crown Prince, then everything is possible, and today she not only wants Qu Mo Ying to have an accident, but she also wants to see His Highness the Crown Prince, and enter the Crown Prince’s East Palace, and she never wants to go back to the West Mansion again, and never wants to be locked up by the Dowager Lady again, and she’s the most honored First Elder Daughter in the entire Qu Mansion.
By what right should Qu Mo Ying be allowed to overpower himself!
Taking a hard breath, it was hard at her throat again, covering her chest and coughing low again, it was really hard, she felt like she was really going to pass out, but this wasn’t going to work, not yet.
She was really sick, not pretending to be sick, even if the eunuchs came to check in a while, it was still true.
The second brother had said that if she wanted to enter the Crown Prince’s residence, it was inevitable that people would pay some price, and even if that price was her own body, she would still have to pay it.
As for Qu Mo Ying’s life and death, this later has nothing to do with himself, even if it is found out afterward that this has something to do with himself, so what, he was already the crown prince’s person at that time, even if the second uncle’s hand is longer, it can’t be extended to the crown prince’s residence, and even if the grandmother is angry again, so what?
Thinking of this, Qu Xuexin’s face showed a hint of triumph, narrowed her eyes finely and glanced at Qu Mo Ying, this time, even if Qu Mo Ying didn’t die, this appearance was ruined, the so-called no talent, no appearance, could come true.
I couldn’t help but cough again at the thought of the complacency.
Seeing her coughing again and again, Luo’s anxious hands and feet at a loss, and after that relocated to Qu Mo Ying, was about to send someone over to burn all the clothes in the basket over there in a single bone, suddenly saw a granny trotting over, “First Lady, the Ji side consort of the Eastern Palace is here.”
“Quickly please.” Luo stood up with joy and welcomed her.
Qu Xuexin also wanted to go out, but helplessly only stood up, his feet were soft, almost fell, and he could only stand to the side with a pale face, waiting for Ji Youran to come in.
When Ji Youran came in, she saw Qu Xuexin, who was standing to the side with a sickly face and appeared to be holding up strongly, and hurriedly went forward with a smile and said, “Please sit down, Miss Qu!”
“Many thanks to Lady Side Consort.” Qu Xuexin said breathlessly, holding onto the maid’s hand as she sat down.
Ji You Ran went up to the front to pay homage to Xiao Yue’s, and after lighting three sticks of clear incense, he retreated to Luo’s side and sat down, and the subordinates brought tea.
“The clothes Fourth Sister is burning, did she make them herself?” Ji You Ran looked at the clothes and socks that Qu Mo Ying was burning on her knees and asked.
“It’s Fourth Maiden herself, she’s not good at stitching, to be able to make this much is already the limit.” Luo sighed and explained.
“Indeed it is already very good!” Ji You Ran nodded her head, agreeing with Luo’s words, “Cousin Qu’s eye disease should not have been good at sewing in the past, and it’s already not easy for some of these to be made by her.”
“Shadow girl’s eye disease, and indeed …” Luo nodded in agreement.
“Can’t Cousin Qu’s eye veil be removed yet, didn’t she say it’s almost healed?” Ji You Ran asked with concern.
“This … is not really known, and she didn’t say anything herself! I am after all just the great aunt!” Luo whispered, extremely helpless.
“First Mistress has already done enough, Cousin Qu has a pitiful life, and First Auntie is taking such good care of her, I’m here to thank you on her behalf.” Ji You Ran said.
“Lady Side Consort is polite, this was originally what I should have done.” Luo’s face reveals a hint of a faint smile, Ji You Ran’s compliments make her very receptive.
While talking, Qu Mo Ying, who was burning the clothes, sidled over and coughed violently, Luo hurriedly called her mother-in-law to go over and look, knowing that she was accidentally choking, and asked her mother-in-law to go and pacify her for a few more sentences.
Yu Dong pulled the fire pot a little further away, and Qu Mo Ying continued to burn it up.
“Is that all that needs to be burned?” Ji Youran suddenly asked.
“Not only these, there are also outside, outside is the mansion prepared, looking for a mother-in-law outside to find a place to burn together, these are the juniors own system, more some thoughts, let shadow girl here burning, and the back of the basket, also need to burn.”
Luo pointed to the large basket placed by the pillar behind her, very proud of herself, “That’s what Xin’er prepared, and I’ll let Shadow Maiden burn it in a while as well.”
“I’ll do it!” Ji Youran stood up.
“How can this … this be!” Luo hurriedly said.
On one side, the smile on Qu Xuexin s face stiffened, her hand subconsciously clenched her handkerchief, wanting to open her mouth to speak, but after looking at Ji Youran, and then at Qu Mo Ying, she suddenly felt that if … it would really be like that, it would not be a good thing, and that if she wanted to enter the Crown Prince s House, this Ji Side Concubine would be one of her own greatest rivals.
Unintentionally, it is also Ji Youran’s own find up, it has nothing to do with himself.
The paddle slowly relaxed.
“It’s not a problem, cousin’s body is not good, so has been burned down, I’m afraid it will continue to cough, I’ll burn some of it for her, a moment is just burning paper money, you can let the maid burn it.” Ji You Ran today is to come and Qu Mo Ying show goodwill, but also to do to others to see, of course the better to do is.
The prince is right outside, even if he did not see with his own eyes, will certainly ask, this time Ji Youran in the East Palace is not good, such a rare opportunity to go out, how to also have to perform well is.
Saying that, he came over to where Qu Mo Ying was kneeling.
Seeing her insistence, Luo’s stopped and then failed to stop her, and could only helplessly let the people go to prepare the fire pit.
“Lady side consort, our young lady said that the two down together to burn, can not lean too close, a moment both will affect, will cough non-stop.” Yu Dong came over to stop Ji You Ran from leaning too close, pointing to one side of the pillar, “Our young lady said that one place, both of them will not affect, it is the best.”
The pillar is indeed far back from the place where Qu Mo Ying burned, and behind them, the impact is not big, this is the best distance in Yu Dong’s estimation.
Ji You Ran mainly came to show her affectionate relationship with Qu Mo Ying this time, even if this is a bit too much, she can’t take it into account, she smiled and expressed her agreement, and also smiled at Luo’s face that was not hesitant, “First Lady, it’s not bad there either, Cousin Qu has already coughed up a lot just now, I’ve come to help her, I’m not here to harm her.”
Said he consciously knelt down in front of the futon by the pillar.
Luo was still trying to persuade, when she suddenly heard the voice of the maid behind her shrieking, “Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss!”
As soon as he heard that something had happened, Luo there still cared about Ji Youran, panicked and ran back …
