Chapter 84 - 78 Frightening
Zhao Song scolded Zhao Hu with a stern face, "Hurry up and get out!"
Zhao Hu snorted, "I also care about my elder brother. It’s not like we’re using your people..."
Even the usually calm and gentle Fu Tinghan couldn’t help but get angry, "Seventh Ancestor," he said solemnly, "Heaven has a virtue of cherishing life. I heard that the Seventh Ancestor is a devout believer in the Buddhist Law, so you should be even more compassionate towards people. Our ancestors worked hard to abolish the custom of burying the living with the dead. There is no need to make life difficult for others, nor to trouble Grandpa Zhao, who loved his people as his own children all his life."
Hearing this, Zhao Hu was somewhat displeased and glanced at him, "Mr. Fu, this is a matter of the Zhao Family. Strictly speaking, you, being an outsider, shouldn’t be here. However, since you are the future husband of Third Lady, exceptions were made, but aren’t you meddling too much?"
He continued, "Elder brother was born into wealth, enjoying a life of luxury. If he doesn’t take a few people with him, how will he avoid grievances in the afterlife? People have always said that Mr. Fu is filial, but what I see today says otherwise. If you were truly filial, then as the grandson-in-law, it should be your servants sent to accompany him."
Zhao Hanzhang’s expression darkened, her anger rising swiftly. She coldly chuckled at Zhao Hu, "Servants, after all, are servants. How can they be as close as family? Since the Seventh Ancestor misses Grandpa Zhao so much, why don’t we go down together to see Grandpa Zhao?"
She reached out and grabbed Zhao Hu’s hand, turning to pull him towards the burial chamber, "Grandpa hasn’t seen the Seventh Ancestor in years; he must miss him dearly. Luckily, Fifth Uncle buried a set of chess pieces with him. You can play chess with Grandpa while I serve tea on the side. Wouldn’t that be a lovely family reunion?"
Zhao Hanzhang pulled Zhao Hu into the main burial chamber, walking around the coffin, "This position is quite nice; I’ll let you have it, Ancestral Uncle. How about I accompany on the other side?"
Zhao Hu’s face turned pale, struggling vigorously all the way, but for some reason, this child, despite not looking strong, had great strength.
