Chapter 1123

Ning Shu spent an enormous sum of money to invite a feng shui master to find a good place for the grave. Then she invited a banquet chef to prepare food and drink for the friends that had come to offer their condolences.

In brief, Ning Shu singlehandedly handled this entire affair. She even invited suona players so that Mother Zhu could be buried with great fanfare.

Seeing off the spirit required a male child and the only male at home was Zhu Siyuan. However, he was too young to know what to do, so the feng shui master said for Ning Shu to carry the child as the child held the incense burner. There was a single incense stick in the burner. As long as the stick didn’t go out and the burner didn’t fall, it’d be fine.

All the necessary rituals were carried out, then Ning Shu carried Zhu Siyuan and walked at the very front of the funeral procession. She walked without ever turning back to the chosen grave location.

No issues arose in this process. Mother Zhu was buried smoothly. Ning Shu watch as soil gradually covered the coffin. Mother Zhu had never suffered in this lifetime. She had been the daughter of a wealthy family, then married Master Zhu who was a talented scholar. Even when they suffered a reversal of fortune, there was still Zhu Suniang who took care of her like she was her own mother.
