“Whenever I have time, I come here to sit for a while and talk to your mother. Even though she doesn’t answer, I feel like she hears me.”
“I think she can hear me,” Lu Zhixia said.
The father and daughter exchanged a glance and then remained silent, burning paper money together in perfect unison.
Until the very last piece of paper was burned.
Lu Zhixia stood up and said to her mother, "The children are all very busy now. We'll get them together in a while and bring them to see you."
Lin Hongzhi: "The journey is too far, so let's not let them come."
Lu Zhixia turned to look at the old man, "You need to take good care of yourself too. I'll bring them to see you."
Lin Hongzhi was moved to tears, feeling incredibly happy today.
Lu Zhixia used a handkerchief to wipe away his tears. "Alright, let's go down the mountain!"
Lin Hongzhi nodded. He felt that today was truly fulfilling, and he would even be willing to die for it!
They soon arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Lin Hongzhi: "When are you going back? Are you going back now or staying overnight?"
Lu Zhixia said, "It's not convenient for you to stay there, so let's head back and come back later."
Lin Hongzhi: "Okay, I'll wait for you!"
They didn't say anything after that, and walked straight to the car.
Lin Hongzhi: "Please be careful on the road."
Lu Zhixia nodded, then opened the car door and got in.
After Gu Lingxiao got into the car and started the engine, he immediately said to the old man, "Dad, we're leaving!"
My daughter called me that, and now my son-in-law is calling me that too.
Lin Hongzhi waved excitedly, "Be careful on the road!"
Gu Lingxiao drove away, and through the rearview mirror, he could see that the old man was still very agitated.
Lu Zhixia said, "I feel that if I don't call out to him today, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to do so next time we meet."
Gu Lingxiao said, "Everyone makes mistakes. He has already spent the rest of his life making amends. You should also try to let go. We need to look forward."
Lu Zhixia: "Yes, you're right. We should always look forward."
——
They traveled around sightseeing until the twin brothers told them they were getting married, at which point they ended their journey and returned home.
When they saw the person, they were not surprised; the brothers were going to marry the twin sisters.
The two sets of parents met, and things were quickly settled.
Lu Zhixia knew that the other party's parents had some ulterior motives, but considering that everything was within her control and that their relationship was indeed good, she went along with her son's wish.
In fact, her choice proved to be correct, and her sons are living happily after marriage.
And soon after, both of their wives became pregnant, and she wondered if it would be twins again!
As expected, she was pregnant with twins, and the due dates were only a dozen days apart.
Everyone was very happy to hear the news.
Nine months later, the children were born: twin daughters and twin sons.
Lu Zhixia felt her life was completely fulfilled in an instant. Now that her children all had their own happiness, she and Gu Lingxiao could finally let go of them.
For the next 30 years, they lived a carefree life, traveling all over the world and even engaging in extreme sports for a while.
He only started recuperating at home when his body could no longer handle it.
Lu Zhixia lived to the age of 92 without suffering from any serious illness, but her health gradually declined. When she sensed her impending death, her gaze fell upon Gu Lingxiao.
"I'll wait for you again in my next life!"
Gu Lingxiao gripped her hand tightly, "Alright, let's continue our entanglement until we grow old together!"
He felt that this lifetime was not enough and wanted to live forever!
Lu Zhixia closed her eyes and passed away peacefully.
Gu Lingxiao felt his heart suddenly gouged out, and then he lay down beside her and passed away shortly afterward.
When the children entered the house, all I saw were their hands clasped tightly together, and then they burst into tears.
Finally, in accordance with their wishes, they were buried in the designated place.
[The End!]
