Chapter 16: Cemetery Worship



Fu Xiao stroked the grave in front of him with his hand, and pictures emerged in his mind, including his mother's kiss when he was a child, his grandmother's love, and his grandfather's careful teaching.

The memories of the original owner, which had slowly faded away in her mind, became profound again.

Including the deep emotions that arise in my heart, which come inexplicably.

It was as if these were her relatives and these were the things she had experienced.

Fu Xiao said in his heart to the grave in front of him: Grandpa Fu, Grandma Fu, and... Mom Fu, hello, I'm sorry, I don't know if I am considered your child now.

She slowly covered her chest.

But why did her heart hurt so much?

The grief is indescribable and I don't know how to express it.

Tears blurred her vision once again, and she lowered her head, letting the tears fall.

Feeling the uncontrollable trembling of my hands...

At this time, she didn't know whether she was "she" or the original owner.

I only know that as the tears fell, the pain in my heart was released.

Slowly, I couldn't help sobbing and crying...

A breeze blew the leaves off...

Sadness, along with the falling leaves, continues to grow wildly...

She felt a hand caressing her head...

She looked up at Fu Yu without saying anything. She slowly stood up, took a step back, knelt on both knees facing the grave in front of her, kowtowed three times, then wiped away her tears, stood up, smiled faintly and said to him: "Brother, let's go home."

The two men walked out of the back mountain without looking back.

It was dinner time, and I could see the smoke curling up on the way home....

People waiting for her to return home can also be seen in front.

Fu Xiao smiled, and his heart suddenly felt at peace, as if his soul, which had been wandering for a long time, had finally found its home.

"My sister is back..." Fu Hong saw her figure and ran over like the wind, howling around her uncontrollably.

"Sister, are you tired...are you hungry? The chicken soup that your second brother made for you is ready. I can tell you it's delicious..."

Li Xiufen came forward, pushed him away, and took Fu Xiao's hand and walked home.

"I'm telling you, baby, don't bother with your second brother, he just talks too much and is annoying... Let's go home and have dinner."

"Old Third, put out your cigarette, it's time to eat..."

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Fu Weilun smoking a cigarette in the front yard. When he saw Fu Xiao's red eyes, he paused and pretended not to see anything. He threw away the half-smoked cigarette and said to Fu Hong who was yelling behind him, "Go, help Grandpa out..."

"Okay..." Fu Hong walked towards the old man's room in a hurry.

The family of eight sat around the dining table. Grandpa Fu said with a smile, "Let's eat!" Then everyone started to pick up their bowls and chopsticks.

"Sister, come...try the chicken soup made by my second brother." Fu Hong picked up a spoon and scooped a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to her.

Fu Xiao took it with a smile: "Thank you, second brother..."

Fu Wei Bo watched his second son's silly smile from the side, curled his lips and spared no effort to sabotage him, "You just lit a fire, how dare you say you did it?"

Fu Hong stole a glance at Fu Xiao and muttered unconvincedly: "That was also my doing."

Li Xiufen watched the father and son quarreling without saying a word. She just ate calmly and occasionally picked up some food for Fu Xiao and Fu Kai.

“It would be nice if we had some wine,” Grandpa Fu sighed after taking a sip of chicken soup.

When the people at the dinner table heard this, no one paid any attention.

Seeing that no one was talking to him, Grandpa Fu put down his bowl and said to Fu Weibo, "Hey... Boss, bring out the wine. Xiaoxiao is home today, and we're happy. Let's drink some."

Fu Wei Bo glanced at his wife. Although he was tempted, he obviously didn't dare to say it.

Li Xiufen poured another bowl of chicken soup for Grandpa Fu and handed it to him, "Dad, you can't drink."

After hearing this, Grandpa Fu on the opposite side knew there was no hope, and he picked up the chicken soup and started drinking it dejectedly.

The other people at the table were obviously used to this scene and continued eating without any pause.

Fu Xiao asked his eldest brother Fu Yu next to him softly, "Brother, why can't grandpa drink..."

Fu Yu whispered back, "Grandpa is not in good health, and the doctor told him to stop drinking."

"What's wrong with your body... Is there something wrong?"

Li Xiufen heard the brother and sister's whispers and did not cover up her voice. "My dears, the doctor said that older people should not drink alcohol often. Your grandfather had many illnesses when he was young during the war. He definitely cannot drink alcohol. You little ones should also pay attention to your grandfather at home and not let him drink."

When he said this, he deliberately glanced at Grandpa Fu.

Fu Xiao's eyes flashed, and he thought of something. He stood up and walked to Grandpa Fu, squatted down and said to him: "Grandpa, stretch out your hand"

Seeing the puzzled looks of the people at the table, she coughed lightly and said, "My grandfather taught me Chinese medicine since I was a child. I can take the pulse."

This is true. In the original owner's memory, Grandpa Fu did teach her since she was a child, but her level was not very good. But Fu Xiaoke is different. Although she has healing abilities in the apocalypse and uses potions to save people, her level of traditional Chinese medicine is also very high.

"Wow...my little darling is so amazing. He can already take pulses at such an old age." Li Xiufen praised with a look of surprise.

Fu Hong also followed suit, "Of course you have to, Mom, don't you see whose sister she is..."

Although the others didn't say anything, they all looked at her with burning eyes.

Grandpa Fu laughed loudly, "Okay... come, let me see how powerful Xiao Xiao is."

Fu Xiao put her fingers on his wrist. After a moment, she withdrew her hand. "Grandpa, did you ever get cold when you were young? And your whole body hurts in winter, right?"
