Chapter 78 That is the minimum respect for the original owner



There are only a few of us left in the room.

Li Yu sighed: "Time flies so fast. I never thought that our lives would get better. The days before were so hard to endure." In fact, what Li Yu sighed was that the time when she first came here was very hard to endure.

Apparently, the children misunderstood. They thought Li Yu was lamenting the hard life she would have to endure after her husband passed away.

Lin Hai looked at his mother and said, "Mom, you have worked hard these years. I know it all."

Li Yu looked at him, then at the other three, each of them showing an expression that showed they felt sorry for her.

Li Yu just...

It’s hard to describe the complex feelings in my heart.

But she wouldn't expose it, so let them continue to misunderstand each other.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Yu gave Lin Hai the new clothes and shoes he bought for the old man and the old woman, and asked him to take his younger brothers and sisters to visit them and wish them a happy New Year.

Only Yang was left at home, and Li Yu left a purse full of copper coins, saying that if any children from the village came to pay New Year's greetings, they would each receive two copper coins.

There are five people each in Uncle Lin's family and in the families of my third and fourth uncles.

After instructing Yang Liu, Li Yu said he was going out for a walk and asked her to leave him alone.

In fact, she went back to her room, took a bag and secretly went up the mountain.

Li Yu took an old piece of clothing that the original owner had worn before but he had never worn before, and planned to build a cenotaph for the original owner next to Lam Chi Chung's grave.

She didn't build a grave mound, so no one could see it.

Li Yu thought that when his children worshipped their father in the future, they would also worship the original owner.

After she buried the original owner's clothes, she burned incense and offered sacrifices.

Women here are not allowed to come to the cemetery to worship their ancestors.

There was no other way, so Li Yu could only choose to come secretly today. And since it was Chinese New Year, she wanted the original owner's soul to return to her husband's side.

Logically, Li Yu didn't believe this. But reality made it impossible for her not to believe it. She could travel from modern times to ancient times, and her soul could even enter the body of a woman who had nothing to do with her.

What else can't be believed?

After Li Yu finished the worship, he told the couple about the situation of his children at home and then went back down the mountain.

She was afraid that if she went back too late, the astute Lin He would see through her clues.

When Li Yu returned home, she felt numb from the cold and quickly went to bed. She didn't even know when the group of people who went out to pay New Year's greetings would come back.

Yang Liu is the one who greets everyone who comes to visit during the New Year.

Li Yu was clearly aware that he was dreaming. There were many people in the dream, including Lin Hai, Lin He, the original owner's childhood parents, siblings, and even Lin Zicong.

Because Lin Zicong died early and was the original owner's husband, Li Yu never looked up any memories of her husband in the original owner's memory.

She felt that was the minimum respect for the original owner.

Unexpectedly, this time he dreamed that he was standing with a woman whose appearance Li Yu could not see clearly.

I don’t know what they were talking about, Li Yu only knew that the two of them were laughing happily.

"What did you say?" Li Yu asked.

There was still no sound, they just talked and laughed.

"Speak louder!" But the two men walked past her as if they didn't see Li Yu.

When the two of them were about to disappear, Lam Chi Chung turned around, looked at her and said two words: Thank you!

Although there is still sound, the lip shape is clearly the word "thank you".

What are you thanking her for? Why are you thanking her?

When Li Yu was about to ask, the two men had disappeared.

It was already the next morning when Li Yu woke up. Lin Jiang was lying asleep on the kang.

"Wake up, second brother."

"Mom, you finally woke up. Do you know that you scared us to death?" said Lin Jiang, who was awakened by Li Yu.

"What's wrong with me? And why are you sleeping here? Do you want to freeze yourself to death?"

"Mom, you had a fever yesterday afternoon. My eldest brother went to see the village doctor and he said you caught a cold," he said.

Li Yu finally realized that he had been sleeping since he came back yesterday. "How long did I sleep yesterday? It's okay, go back to the room and lie down for a while, it's so cold."

"I've been sleeping since yesterday afternoon." Lin Jiang replied.

Li Yu turned his head and looked outside. It was morning now. He could hear Yang Liu busy in the kitchen. He realized that he had slept for almost a whole day and night. It was incredible.

"I'm fine now, hurry back to the house and warm up."

"Are you really okay, Mom? I'll go get you something to eat first. You haven't eaten for a day, so you must be hungry. I'll also tell my eldest brother and third brother. They are all very worried." After saying that, she hurried out without waiting for Li Yu to speak.

Lin Jiang probably told several people in the family that Li Yu had woken up. Soon, a row of people stood in front of her kang, asking her if she was feeling any worse.

Li Yu felt a headache after being asked this question.

"It's really okay, just a slight cold. Meimei, bring mother a bowl of porridge. I just heard your sister-in-law in the kitchen, probably making porridge. Boss, take your wife to your father-in-law's house."

Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year, the day when married women return to their parents’ home.

"Mom, it's okay. It will be the same next time we go back. How can we leave when you are not feeling well?" Yang Liu said hurriedly.
