Lady Tang made a fuss for half a day and didn't gain any benefit.
Although Qian Sigui and Lady Wang felt they didn't necessarily need the fifty wen money, they still took it. It wasn't much, but it represented an attitude.
They had a lively lunch. At the table, Old man Qian formally decided that they would arrange for Qian Manjiang's tombstone and gravesite the next day, and then find some old clothes to bury with him the day after next during the funeral ceremony. As the third branch of the family was sick and frail, the responsibility fell on the two brothers, Qian Manchuan and Qian Manhe, along with Qian Yeejin.
After the meal, Qian Xiang went to Old woman Qian's bedroom, and with a meaningful look, she also beckoned Lady Wu and her husband to join. Qian Yixiu then followed them eagerly.
Lady Wang glanced over and felt uncomfortable, but was persuaded to leave by Qian Manchuan.
