After leaving the crematorium, the urn in Ling Ran's hand disappeared. He got in the car and headed for the Huaihe River embankment.

At the embankment opposite the entrance to Huaixi Village, the two got off the car and walked down the embankment to the Huai River.

The urn appeared in Ling Ran's hands again. Zhou Xiang handed him a pair of dishwashing gloves, which were from her previous life. Her hands could not go into cold water, so she bought fleece-lined dishwashing gloves specially. They had to be an extra large size, otherwise, her stiff and bent fingers would not be able to fit in.

Ling Ran understood the gloves as soon as he saw them. "They're already on sale. Buy some as a backup. Wear them if you have to go into cold water."

"good!"

It was still a little tight for Ling Ran to wear, but he could wear it. At this time, a breeze was blowing from the river bank. Ling Ran opened the urn, took it out and sprinkled it into the river. The ashes were scattered, and the breeze carried the ashes away from the river bank and into the river water.

With the help of this gust of wind, the ashes were successfully scattered into the Huai River. The last handful of ashes were left in the urn. Ling Ran squatted down and pushed the urn into the Huai River. A wave came and the urn followed the back wave into the depths of the Huai River.

The wooden urn does not pollute the river water. This was the plan of the two people, and they chose wood on purpose.

"Auntie, have a safe journey!"

Zhou Xiang shouted towards the Huai River, but the river was silent. Zhou Xiang felt sad. Even though she had a somewhat frightened reaction, she would comfort herself that this was the response from the old lady.

Just as she was thinking this, a wave came over and Ling Ran pulled her back to avoid getting wet. Zhou Xiang smiled. This should be the response from the old lady, right?

Ling Ran pointed at her arm and said, "Your sleeve is wet from the gloves I'm wearing, and you're still smiling."

As he spoke, he squatted down to wash the gloves on his hands, and then slowly took them off. "These gloves are here for me."

"Yeah!" Zhou Xiang responded in a good mood.

Ling Ran heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that her mood had improved after being depressed for a few days.

"Let's go!"

After getting in the car, the two went straight back to the town.

When Zhou's mother returned home, she asked them, "The courtyard gate was ajar when I woke up this morning. I went upstairs and the door to the room was also open. I knew you two had gone out early. It was so early in the morning, with heavy dew, and you didn't even put on a coat."

In recent days, the two have been acting mysterious. Mother Zhou didn't ask them where they were going, but only talked about what she could talk about.

Ling Ran finally held the little girl's hand, which was indeed cold. "Aunt Jiang, it's my fault. I forgot to mention her."

Mother Zhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "How can you spoil your child like this? Be careful not to spoil him."

"I can't spoil him! If I spoil him, I will continue to spoil him."

There was really nothing to say about this son-in-law. Mother Zhou pointed at the dining table and said, "Hurry up and wash up and eat! The food you left behind is probably getting cold."

"I'll heat it up, you go ahead and do your work!"

Well, since the son-in-law chased the people away, Zhou's mother went for a stroll on the street. It was market day today, so she didn't need to buy groceries, so it would be okay for her to go shopping!

Ling Ran heated up the porridge and steamed buns, and ate breakfast with salted eggs.

At this moment, someone outside called out, "Ling Ran lives here, right?"

This question...

Ling Ran stood up and said, "They must be here to install the suspension bridge. I'll go take a look. You stay home and play. Don't go near the water and get wet."

"Okay! I'll play at home." Zhou wanted to emphasize the pronunciation of the word "play", treating her as a child!

Ling Ran went out with a smile.

Xiang Qian, who had come to survey that day, was outside the door. Seeing Ling Ran coming out, he went to the front yard with him. "We tried to drive in, but someone at the river head stopped us, saying that this road is not accessible yet. How long has it been under construction?"

"It's only been ten days, and even small cars don't dare to go up there! What's more, yours is a big truck."

"You should be able to get on the car in about ten days."

"No, our roads are paved thickly, so they dry slowly. Besides, our technology isn't advanced enough. We're using the old methods. We can only wait a little longer."

As they were talking, they arrived at the slope at the head of the river. It turned out that Stationmaster Xie was sitting at the head of the new road, guarding it.

"Thank you for your hard work, cousin." Ling Ran followed Zhou Xiang and called him cousin.

Xie Lin smiled and said, "It's not hard. It would be a shame if such a good road was damaged."

"Yes! It will take another twenty days before you can get on the bus. Please keep an eye on it. There will be another bus coming soon."

"Okay! Accountant Wang and I will take turns guarding the place every day."

Looking forward at the fork in the road where the stone pillars were no longer there, he asked Ling Ran how to get to the other side of the river.

Ling Ran pointed to the half-demolished courtyard wall on the other side and said, "The area inside that wall is ours. The car can go around it."

Xiang Qian instructed the driver to turn around, and he and Ling Ran got on the truck and drove to the rear warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Xie Lin called Accountant Wang to come out and replace him, as he wanted to watch the installation of the suspension bridge.

Zhou Xiang was lazily staying at home when she suddenly remembered that there was someone in the space who needed to be fed. She went to the kitchen to look for leftovers and put all the edible things that had been stored in the refrigerator for a long time into a basket.

Throw it into the space bathroom, don’t take out the original basket, it has been in the bathroom, just throw it away when the time comes.

The person who had nothing to do took out his phone and sent a text message to his third brother, asking him when the exam would be held? Should he go home or go directly to Beijing?

Zhou Hua replied quickly: Mei Zi and I will go directly to Beijing in early July.

Zhou wanted to reply to him: See you in Beijing!

Immediate reply: OK!

…

The suspension bridge cannot be installed in one or two days, so the installer has to stay for food and accommodation.

Zhou Xiang wanted to get up and go to the street to find her father to ask him to buy more vegetables. Just as she reached the door, she saw a group of ten grown men walking towards her house. When these people saw Zhou Xiang, some of them recognized her and called her sister-in-law.

Zhou Xiang was confused.
