Chapter 1530 Cleaning Up the Trash (8)
It was winter at the end of December, and the mountains were barren. There were no buildings to block the wind, and the wind was blowing from all directions. Even though there were people in front, behind, and on both sides to block the wind, Ruan Jiaojiao was still shivering from the cold, and her face was stinging from time to time.
Xu Xu held her hand tightly, his brows furrowed tightly.
Ruan Hao next to him also said, "If you can't stand it anymore, just tell me and go to the car to warm up first."
Ruan Jiaojiao smiled at them. She really couldn't stand it, but she still hoped to go see Wen Yu in person. She had too much sympathy for this woman.
She, like Shu Jie, was a beautiful girl, but because of a turmoil, she ended up in this place. Her life was full of tragedy. However, Shu Jie had a chance to start over, but she did not.
"This Xu Jianlin is really a piece of shit!" Ruan Jianguo, who was walking in front, cursed in a low voice as he looked at the almost flattened grave in front of him.
Ruan Jiaojiao raised her head and looked over, and immediately frowned.
A grave, like a house, needs to be repaired, otherwise it will be blown down by wind and rain, and the arched bulge will gradually flatten. It needs to be repaired every year to pile up the collapsed mud again.
Wen Yu's grave was obviously unattended. More than a decade had passed, and her grave had collapsed long ago, almost flattened, not to mention a tombstone. It was bare and nothing.
Ruan Jiaojiao's heart was already heavy, and now it was even more uncomfortable. Ruan
Jianguo, still holding a hoe in his hand, went up to help with the repairs without saying a word, while Ruan Jiaojiao helped Ruan Lin pull out some dry grass.
After doing all this, Ruan Lin sighed and said, "If a woman marries the wrong man, her life is ruined." At this point, she couldn't help but look at Xu Xu. Seeing Xu Xu holding Ruan Jiaojiao's small hand that had just pulled the dry grass and covering it with the warm cloth, her expression softened.
Xu Xu didn't know that Ruan Lin was looking at him. He just felt sorry for the coldness of Ruan Jiaojiao's hands. He was like a furnace all year round, but Ruan Jiaojiao was different. She had been afraid of cold since she was a child, especially after her period, her hands and feet were often cold, even worse in winter. This time when she returned to her body, the situation was even more serious. He just hated that the heat from his body could not be transferred to her.
Ruan Jiaojiao nodded when she heard this, especially for people of her mother's generation, this was really the case.
When Ruan Jianguo finished repairing Wen Yu's grave, Ruan Lin lit incense and burned paper money.
Ruan Jiaojiao knelt down on the old clothes laid out by Ruan Lin, and Xu Xu beside her took a look and finally knelt down as well.
Ruan Jiaojiao kowtowed, and he thought about it and kowtowed as well.
Ruan Jiaojiao closed her eyes and said silently in her heart: "Thank you, Aunt Wen." In a sense, Wen Yu gave her silly wolf a second life.
After they kowtowed and burned paper money, the Ruan family did not stay here because it was too cold. They soon returned to the Ruan family's house. Ruan Xu invited them to have lunch at home at noon. It was hard to refuse such a kind invitation. They could only go to the second master's house for lunch. After lunch, all the aunts and uncles in the village knew that the Ruan family had returned, and also knew that Ruan Jiaojiao had returned, so they all rushed over to see her.
Although Ruan Jiaojiao only smiled next to Ruan Lin, she was still very tired after a day, and fell asleep next to Xu Xu on the way home in the afternoon.
Two days later, Duan Qianyang, who was exhausted all the way, finally arrived in Yuansu.
