Gu Qingzhou got into the car and asked the adjutant to go to the horse race track on the outskirts of the city.
There are Si Xingyu''s planes parked there.
Si Xingpei drove a truck to Hebei this time, and the plane is still in Taiyuan government.
Gu Qingzhou said to the Deputy official, "after seeing me on the plane, you immediately go to Hebei to find a teacher seat and tell him that his wife died and let him go back to Yuecheng."
Surprised, the adjutant repeated and asked, "is your wife dead?"
Gu Qingzhou doesn''t know the details.
The telegram she received was still sent from the general headquarters in Nanjing. It is estimated that the commander-in-chief received the news and went back to them while sending them a telegram. There is no doubt about it.
How he died was unclear in the small message.
"Madam, would you like to go to Hebei to find a teacher first?" The adjutant reminded Gu Qingzhou, "my subordinates know the location of the division seat. They can stop the plane by temporarily finding an open space."
Gu Qingzhou is worried and confused.
She was so worried because she didn''t know the nature of the matter.
When she heard that Mrs. Si was dead, she first thought about whether her husband was a suspect, and then thought about what to do with the governor.
Two things stirred in her heart, and she was a little out of square.
"Then go to Hebei first." Gu Qingzhou road.
A few hours later, the plane arrived at an important town in Hebei and found Si Xingpei.
Si Xingpei was in the headquarters of a small army at that time.
He was also deeply surprised by the news of Mrs. Si''s death.
It took him half an hour to hand over his official duties to his trusted subordinates and the personal guards of Ye dujun. Then he hurried on the plane with Gu Qingzhou.
After sitting still, Gu Qingzhou asked him, "have you heard from him before?"
"I promised to let her go and I wouldn''t leave anyone to watch her." "I''m also quite surprised," Si Xingpei said
Gu Qingzhou said, "the governor asked us to go back to mourning..."
Si Xingpei said, "it doesn''t matter. Even if she dies strangely, it has nothing to do with us. Now she only has qiongzhi. What can qiongzhi do?"
For Mrs. Si''s death, Mr. Si was indifferent and almost relieved.
Gu Qingzhou was restless.
Seeing that she was shrinking her neck, the Secretary could not help but say, "what are you worried about?"
"Worry about the governor." Gu Qingzhou said, "the governor''s suffering is like falling into the sky."
Si Xingpei touched her head: "the supervisor is a soldier. He is used to life and death. He has already had these plans for life and death. He can survive."
Then he hugged her in his arms.
He is very busy these days. He is contacting some small military leaders. He runs around without taking a bath. His military uniform is dirty and messy, so he let go of Gu Qingzhou.
His uniform and his plane.
He found a brand-new suit and went to the side to change it.
In the golden afternoon, the plane landed in Yuecheng.
The racetrack is the driver''s, waiting for him.
Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingfu got off the plane, and the racecourse was ready for the car.
Si Xingpei drove the car, and the car returned to the governor''s house all the way.
The governor''s house has not been mourned yet, because his wife is still in the hospital and has not been picked up or buried. Both the governor and Si qiongzhi are in the hospital.
The fifth aunt is in charge at home.
The fifth aunt saw Si Xingpeng, and her expression changed slightly. After a long time, she spoke. Her eyes were slightly red and said, "Young Marshal is back?"
"What''s going on?" The Secretary asked her.
The fifth aunt was about to explain that Mrs. Si''s body had been taken back.
Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingyu hurried out and stood on the steps.
The adjutant carried the stretcher and carried Mrs. Si''s body into the lobby.
The reason for waiting until now is not because of others, but qiongzhi went to Guangzhou hospital for internship and investigation for two months a few days ago.
When he received the notice, he had to wait for Si qiongzhi to come back, so he waited until now.
"Abba." Gu Qingzhou came forward and shouted in a low voice.
The governor nodded, and his steps were slightly weak, and he was very haggard.
Si qiongzhi''s eyes were red and swollen with tears.
Gu Qingzhou and Si Xingpeng came back, and Si qiongzhi also arrived. Mrs. Si''s body was taken back.
The coffin was ready at home, so someone arranged Mrs. Si''s face.
Gu Qingzhou watched her mortuary with her own eyes.
When she was put into the coffin, the people looked at her. Her cleaned face was calm and kind.
When she was alive, Gu Qingzhou had never seen her look so kind. Her heart was inexplicably astringent and her eyes were hot.
Si qiongzhi cried so badly that the fifth aunt hugged her too tightly.
The lid of the coffin was closed and the official mourning was over. It was already dusk.
Gu Qingzhou and Si qiongzhi, dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, burned paper in front of the spirit, while Si Xingyu went out to report the funeral.
The superintendent sat next to him.
Si qiongzhi kept crying.
Gu Qingzhou burned for a moment, then walked to the governor''s side: "Abba, I''m sorry."
For those who have just gone to report the funeral and have not mourned at the moment, the mourning hall is full of aides, servants and aunts and wives of the Secretary''s family.
The superintendent sat there in silence, his back seemed to be very stiff.
Gu Qingzhou''s heart is sour.
Hearing Gu Qingzhou''s words, he just nodded again and didn''t speak.
He dared not speak, for fear that the cry would pour out and could not be controlled.
"Dad, what''s the matter with madam?" Gu Qingzhou asked again.
The commander waved his hand.
He didn''t want to answer.
Gu Qingzhou couldn''t ask again. He still knelt in front of the spirit.
"Sick." Si qiongzhi, who was sobbing, opened his mouth and answered Gu Qingzhou''s question.
She has no anger and resentment, only endless sadness.
She cried and said, "after returning to Yuecheng, Muma got sick every day. After vomiting blood, she stayed in the hospital.
She couldn''t eat, so she was fed by infusion, and her spirit was bad for a while. She refused to let her go to Nanjing, saying she didn''t want to see Abba.
The doctor was worried about her, and I was worried about her, but I didn''t expect it so soon. "
At this point, Si qiongzhi burst into tears.
Gu Qingzhou didn''t expect that she was willing to say these words to herself, let alone that she didn''t pull and blamed Mrs. Si''s death on herself.
Although Si qiongzhi changed a lot when we met last time. But she was so clear that Gu Qingzhou was still surprised.
For a moment, she didn''t know whether to comfort Si qiongzhi.
After Si qiongzhi cried, he wiped his tears and continued to burn paper.
"Qiongzhi, I''m sorry for you too..." Gu Qingzhou comforted her, although her tone was thin.
Si qiongzhi made a sound from his throat and continued to burn paper.
When Si Xingpei came back at more than 9 p.m., his relatives and friends already knew the news of Mrs. Si''s death.
Relatives from other places sent adjutants to inform them.
Si qiongzhi was already supported by the servant and went down to drink some water.
A servant succeeded Si qiongzhi.
The secretary put on a stick of incense, so he pulled Gu''s boat and said, "I''ve been kneeling for a long time. Go and have something to eat."
The governor was still sitting. The governor asked him, "governor, do you want to eat? The mourning hall will be taken care of by the adjutants for the time being."
The superintendent said, "you all go. I''ll wake my wife tonight."
Gu pulled her arm out and said she wanted to return it.
She knelt for a long time. Her knees were sore and it was inconvenient to walk. Si Xingyu slowed down and said, "don''t be so filial. Just look past it."
His words are not pleasant to hear.
Gu Qingzhou thought for a while. It was the limit for him to have a incense stick, so he didn''t say anything anymore.
"Si Xingyu, what should I do?" Gu Qingzhou road.
"What do you do?" Si Xingpei didn''t understand this.
