In the afternoon, the sky was a little gloomy, the sky was covered with large swaths of dark clouds, and there was a depressing atmosphere quietly floating in the air. Occasionally, a desolate wind came from the distant sky.
On the way back to the old house in Fengju, the driver was Xi Xiaye, and Mu Yuchen was sitting in the passenger seat with his eyes tightly closed. His breathing was a little heavy and he was not sleeping well.
While slowly stopping the car to wait for the traffic lights, Xi Xiaye suddenly took off her coat, turned her body, and carefully put it on him.
He just frowned, and when her breath faintly blew through his nose, he didn't open his eyes, subconsciously stretched out his hands to hug the clothes she covered, and changed his posture.
When Xi Xiaye saw this, his heart ached again, and he couldn't help saying in a low voice, "Mu Yuchen, you have to cheer me up. Seeing you like this, I really want to bear everything for you—"
It's just a pity that at a time like this, it's not like she's willing to bear the burden and be able to get rid of such pain.
Hearing what she said, he leaned lightly on the back of the chair, suddenly turned his head, opened his eyes slightly, and looked at her. There was a hint of reproach in his low tone, but there was a touch of warmth in it, "Obviously I'm all sad." You want to cry, but you still want to comfort me, so it can only be said by me."
After finishing speaking, he gave her a faint smile, but that smile was obviously full of pain and sadness.
Hearing his emotional words, Xi Xiaye didn't know why, but her eyes that had been hot for a long time couldn't bear the tears that had condensed for a long time, and the hot tears fell on the back of her white hand. Some burning pain.
The pain that had been suppressed in her chest for a long time burst out all of a sudden, and the tears condensed in her eyes were like broken beads, one after another. In just a few tens of seconds, the tears on her legs His clothes were already wet a lot.
She raised her hand and wiped the tears on her face indiscriminately, while sucking her nose, she was so sad that she couldn't help but choked up and said, "I dare not cry, because I am afraid that you will feel uncomfortable too, but I really can't control it... There is still no way to accept such a cruel fact, as if it was a dream, why is this happening? Why?"
She burst into tears, crying very embarrassingly, looking at the man beside her with red eyes.
He stared at her quietly, and sighed, "If crying can make you feel better, then you can cry, but should you pull over the car first? The horns of the cars behind are going to be broken .”
Hearing this, she regained some reason from her trance, wiped away her tears indiscriminately, and started the car...
The car slowly came to a stop near the temporary parking space on the side of the road. He also thoughtfully handed her a tissue. She took it, but her whole body was covered on the steering wheel, and her thin shoulders were light. Trembling, it was obvious that he could no longer control his emotions.
Mu Yuchen also remained silent all this time. He glanced at her, took a deep breath, leaned on the back of the chair, turned his head to look at the continuous traffic outside the car window, and silently put his big hand on her shoulder. Go, she sucked her nose, threw herself into his arms, and cried out.
He gently touched her head with his big hand, and said sadly, "After crying this time, don't cry again in the future. Grandma can't see this, huh?"
Xi Xiaye choked up and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself. If you feel uncomfortable, maybe crying will make you feel better."
He listened with a low smile, "I'm a man, why cry? That's your woman's right. Well, remember her, no matter how sad, there is no such way to miss her better, tomorrow we have to Keep going."
"Grandma is not leaving with regrets. Seeing that we got married and had a son, Ah Mo and Ling Shi, whom she has always cared about, are now together. Ling Shi also has good news. With us, she will go very well. Relieved."
Mu Yuchen said quietly, combing her long hair with five fingers, and briefly helped her comb it, "Okay, let's go back, these few days, you still need a lot of energy to take care of the funeral, you You can't let your parents bear it, can you?"
Xi Xiaye listened, and then wiped away the tears on his face, raised his eyes to look at him lightly, and found that his eyes had returned to the original calm, but his body still couldn't hide the melancholy and sad aura.
She just nodded and said in a hoarse voice, "I know. At this time, we must all be strong, Mr. Mu."
He nodded with a low smile, "The consciousness is not too low. At any time, we are not qualified to be sad for too long. Grandma is gone, grandpa is still there, parents are still there, and son is still here... They We are needed more."
He seemed to have seen through this life and death, the calm and indifference on Jun's face and the deepest sadness in his eyes clearly formed a very strong contrast!
In that instant, Xi Xiaye suddenly understood something!
It's not that he is not sad, but that the things he bears make him sad and sad that he can't last too long, just as he said--
There are still many people who need them!
…
The car slowly stopped in the parking space in front of the Mu family's old house.
Inside the Mu family's old house, it was indeed lifeless, and a solemn and gloomy black cloth had been hung in front of the door.
When the husband and wife walked into the living room, they found that the butler and the maids also had reddish eyes. Mu Lingshi was sitting blankly in the huge living room, and Ji Zitong was accompanying her. Naturally, Mu Yinan and Zhuang Shurong stayed behind. Funeral home vigil.
"Brother! Sister-in-law!"
As soon as Mu Lingshi saw the figures of Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye, she quickly stood up and greeted them. Her eyes were already red and her voice was very hoarse.
"Mu Dong, Xia Ye, please be patient!"
Ji Zitong also walked over with a melancholy expression, and bowed slightly.
Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye also nodded in return.
"Thank you, Zitong!"
Xi Xiaye said in a low voice.
Ji Zitong shook his head, "I am also very sad to hear the news, but I don't know what to do. I hope you don't feel too sad. I think Grandma Mu also hopes that everyone can live happily."
"Brother, sister-in-law! I'm going to see grandma!"
Mu Lingshi stretched out her hand to grab Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye one by one, and said in a pleading voice.
Xi Xiaye subconsciously glanced at her lower abdomen that seemed to have some traces, raised her hand and patted the back of her hand, "You are inconvenient, so don't go there, wait until the day of the burial, stay at home and let Zitong accompany you." Come on, we'll do it over there."
