Xi Jinghong stood up from the ground.
He looked at him puzzledly and asked, "Third brother, what do you mean?"
Xi Jingchen smiled self-deprecatingly.
“Brother, the truth about Dad’s death cannot be made public.
And Xueer suffered such insult at home!
Do you think there is any meaning for us to stay in this house?
This is disloyal and unfilial!
It’s better to leave, out of sight, out of mind!”
It would save Meng Ning from always framing his Xueer.
Xi Jinghong frowned.
He understood everything and was very disappointed with Meng Ning.
But Meng Ning was only released from prison because she was pregnant?
Should we send it back?
How would their family's reputation be if outsiders knew about this?
"It's better for you to leave. I can see that the two sisters of the Meng family are not getting along...
Third brother, I'm sorry, I have to inconvenience you and your wife."
Xi Jingchen heard that he was determined to protect Meng Ning.
I feel a little angry.
He defended Meng Ning and he understood.
But he also has to protect his wife.
Xi Jingchen chuckled.
"Brother, I hope you won't regret your decision today!
You guys take care of yourself! "
Xi Jingchen said this and turned to leave.
After Xi Jingchen left, Xi Jinghong slumped down in the chair in front of the desk.
He murmured to himself, "Regret? Maybe!"
But when he thought of the baby in Meng Ning's belly, he sighed.
I hope that child will live up to his plea today.
Xi Jingchen walked outside and looked up at the night sky.
Thinking about it, Meng Xue was probably asleep by now.
Then he turned around and went back to the mourning hall.
The next morning.
Everyone in the Xi family was busy wearing white mourning clothes.
The funeral music played by suona began to sound.
"The auspicious time has arrived, funeral procession, open the coffin!"
Mr. Xi's coffin was carried out by eight big men.
The three younger generations of the Xi family walked behind, holding the portrait of Old Man Xi and paper figures of the buried boys and girls.
The three Xi brothers followed closely behind, holding the wreaths, crying and shouting, "Dad..."
The women walked at the end.
According to the local customs, women can only attend the funeral but cannot accompany the burial.
They returned to Xi's house halfway through the journey.
The men carried Mr. Xi's coffin to the prepared grave.
Watching everyone shovel the soil to bury the coffin...
The three brothers of the Xi family took the lead and knelt down.
"Dad...have a safe journey..."
"Grandpa... rest in peace..."
Wait until the funeral is over.
Everyone bowed to Mr. Xi's tombstone one by one and left.
Xi Jingchen stood in front of the grave and looked at the tombstone.
I thought to myself, “Dad, your murderer has been found, and you can rest in peace now!
I know you love Xueer.
Now you are gone.
I'll give her your share too!
You and Uncle Meng can be reunited and continue your revolutionary friendship..."
After Xi Jinghong left, he did not see Xi Jingchen, so he turned around and returned to the cemetery.
He watched him staring at the tombstone quietly, walked up and patted him on the shoulder.
"Third brother, let's go!"
Xi Jingchen turned his head and looked at him.
"Brother, why don't you say a few more words to Dad?"
Xi Jinghong was slightly stunned, then looked at the tombstone and sighed.
"Dad, I'm sorry, it's my fault for being an unfilial son.
I know it's Xiaonian's daughter-in-law who is sorry for you!
She should have been asked to kneel down in front of you and admit her mistake!
But she is weak...
I hope you will stop arguing with her for the sake of your great-grandson?
After she gives birth...
I personally brought her here to kowtow and apologize to you..."
Xi Jingchen felt a little better after getting Xi Jinghong's promise.
"Dad, I'll bring Xue'er here to see you tomorrow..."
