One morning, the phone rang. Yu Yin's heart skipped a beat. She quickly answered the phone, "Yin Yin, Auntie has passed away."
Yu Yin didn't know how she hung up the phone. Aunt Hu's words echoed in her ears: Grandma was gone, really gone. Tears streamed down her face. Without even wiping them away, she rushed to find Lu Shurui.
Lu Shurui sobbed, as her grandmother often acted as her mother.
When Yu Yin and the others arrived, Grandpa and Aunt Hu had already helped Grandma change her clothes and packed all her belongings, which were things Grandma liked when she was alive.
The Lu family members all arrived, but Aunt Lu still didn't come into the house. Finally, Uncle Lu told her to go home. This was a knot in Grandpa's heart, and there was nothing that could be done.
Grandma's funeral was simple yet dignified. Grandpa didn't ask anyone for money; he used his own savings to prepare everything, even choosing the burial plot himself. Everything else was taken care of.
After seeing Grandma off, Grandpa naturally didn't go back to Yu Yin's house. With no other option, Mr. Lu decided to stay and keep his elderly father company. He and Uncle Lu took care of Grandpa's daily life together.
A month after Grandma passed away, Grandpa passed away in his sleep. He probably didn't want his children to prepare for Grandma's funeral, so he let Grandma go first, stayed behind to take care of everything, and then left with Grandma.
The two elderly people have been together for fifty or sixty years and are used to being together.
Yu Yin felt that her grandparents were like wild geese, who could only have one mate in their lives, and after losing their mate, their lives would lose their purpose.
The Lu family lost two elderly people within a month. After that, without the elders as a bond, the relationship between relatives became just so-so. Especially after what happened to the third aunt, it left a bad feeling in everyone's heart.
Birth, aging, sickness, and death are inevitable; everyone will face that day, it's just a matter of sooner or later.
