"Your grandmother is here!" Youyi exclaimed excitedly when he saw the carriage.
I don't know if Bai Yatou and the others brought any tools. Even if they didn't, it would be good to have two more people to help.
"Whoa~" Granny Shang stopped the carriage in front of the three of them.
Bai Fuya then took out several flower shovels from the carriage: "Look what I brought you! How can we dig a hole without tools!"
When Youyi saw the flower shovel that Bai Fuya brought, his eyes lit up: "Oh my, you're really my savior! If I had used this broken stone to dig, I would have been done for tonight."
He knew this girl was very clever and would definitely bring tools.
Youyi took the shovel and began to work diligently again.
Bai Fuya and Granny Shang also took flower shovels to help dig the hole, and even the two children followed along to help.
Many hands make light work. The five of them dug for an hour and finally dug out a large pit.
Looking at the large pit, Youyi said with some shame, "It's a pity there's no coffin."
The body was carried out, but there was no coffin to put it in.
Bai Fuya was quite frank: "At this point, why are we still so concerned about coffins? Isn't this good too? Without the constraints of a coffin, they might be more at ease."
...Youyi looked at Bai Fuya silently.
This girl's ideas are always so unconventional and eccentric.
No one buries someone without a coffin.
Leng Xiyue's expression was cold and stern: "No coffin, no coffin. They won't care."
They will understand her and won't blame her.
"Then let's bury it. It'll be dawn soon."
Youyi placed the two corpses directly into the dug pit and began to bury them.
The five of them worked together and buried the body much faster than they dug it up; they finished burying it in less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.
Bai Fuya took a wooden plaque from the carriage and handed it to Leng Xiyue: "Whatever you want to carve is up to you."
Leng Xiyue took the wooden plaque, borrowed a dagger from You Yi, and carved the names of her parents from her previous life onto it.
She hoped her mother and father wouldn't blame her, and she also hoped that when she returned in the future, she would be able to find them easily.
Youyi helped her insert the wooden plaque into the ground, while Bai Fuya took out many peonies from the carriage and planted them next to the grave.
Leng Xiyue kowtowed three times to her parents before leaving with Bai Fuya and the others.
The sun slowly rose ahead, and the carriage gradually moved away from Xiliang...
Bonus Note: This concludes the bonus chapter about Xiao Bao and Leng Xiyue's childhood. The next chapter will focus on Xiao Xingxing and Huangfu Jue's childhood. Later, we'll likely write more bonus chapters about the characters as adults, but these will be very short.
