2716 I’ll keep an eye on him
On the 4th of September, the bodies of the Wang family were transported back to the backyard of the Tongzhou Prefecture.
The entire Manor was hung with white lanterns. The common people now knew what had happened and all of them sighed, feeling that Lord Wang’s family was too pitiful.
Sir Wang had a good reputation in the Tongzhou Prefecture. After his body was placed in the mourning hall, many people came in one after another to offer their condolences.
Fatty Wang didn’t know many of them, but from their clothes, he could tell that many of them were ordinary people.
Some of the people who had received help from the Wang family cried with genuine feelings.
Whether it was Sir Wang, old Madam Wang, Madam Wang, or young lady Wang, they had all done bad things for the people of Tongzhou in the past few years.
There was no need to talk about Sir Wang. He had always worked for the people and had never wrongly judged or wronged anyone. He sought justice for the people and did not collude with the rich merchants. He treated all the people of Tongzhou Prefecture equally.
Old Madam Wang would ask the servants in the residence to send quilts and food to the lonely elderly when the weather was cold.
Madam Wang and young lady Wang’s shops and manors would provide all kinds of workers, so that everyone could have a place to earn a living with their own hands.
There wasn’t even a beggar in the Tongzhou Prefecture.
It wasn’t entirely the Wang family’s contribution; however, Wang family had set an example in Tongzhou province.
Lord Wang was a good official, so the officials under him couldn’t be too bad, and had to follow him.
Old Madam Wang, Madam Wang, and young lady Wang were the role models among the female family members of the officials, businessmen, and the other women in Tongzhou. In order to get closer to the female family members of the big shots, they had to learn from them even if they were unwilling.
Therefore, the entire Tongzhou province was in harmony.
It wasn’t that there weren’t any bad things, it was just that there were very few.
Therefore, there were many people who came to offer their condolences. The Yamen runners had to maintain order at the door and let them in one by one.
At this time, everyone followed the rules and entered one by one in a line with true feelings.
Gu Xin couldn’t help but sigh as she watched from the side. It was really not bad to be able to be an official to this extent.
The date of the burial had already been decided on that day. They would set off on the tenth of September and return to the Wang family’s hometown to be buried in their ancestral graves.
The Wang family’s old home was not far from the Tongzhou Prefecture and was not under the jurisdiction of the Tongzhou Prefecture. It would take a day to travel by boat.
Fatty Wang had already asked the second housekeeper to bring people back to their hometown to choose an address, and then settle everything there. When he returned, he would be able to bring them back to their graves.
The matters in the residence were all handled by the head and second housekeepers. After fatty Wang saw that one after another, he fetched his aunts and elder sisters back, he also started to get busy.
Gu Xin would eat with fatty Wang in the morning and she would make him sit down to eat with her. She would then secretly put jade beads into his food.
Therefore, fatty Wang looked very energetic, but his aunties and sisters were even more heartbroken for him, always worried that he would suddenly collapse.
In the end, they sent Mrs. Liu, who was slightly more familiar with Gu Xin, to ask Gu Xin to persuade fatty Wang.
Gu Xin could only comfort Madam Liu, ” I’ve tried to persuade her. It’s useless. However, don’t worry, Madame Liu. I’ll take his pulse every morning. If there’s any problem, I’ll force him to rest. I’ll go with him to the Wang family’s ancestral land, so you don’t have to worry too much, Madam Liu. I also have enough medicinal herbs on me. ”
