"Uncle Chu, you..."
Chu Jingcong watched her come out with a dazed look, as if he had seen an old friend.
It wasn't until Liang Su spoke that he came to his senses.
Sometimes, he felt like he was going crazy.
"I came here to pay my respects to a friend."
Liang Su could tell that he was in a low mood, so he wisely didn't disturb him too much.
"Aji and I are here to pay our respects to our elders, so we'll go back first."
Chu Jingcong nodded and got out of the car, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand, which were still fresh.
Liang Su took a closer look and found that this flower was the Meiviolin planted in Chu Jingcong's home.
She was very familiar with this name.
"Your friends like this flower too."
Chu Jingcong smiled and nodded, "Yes, she likes all kinds of roses very much, and this variety is her favorite."
Shen Congji and Liang Su drove away before Chu Jingcong got on.
"Ayi, wait in the car."
Chu Yi nodded and responded.
This was not his first time to come to this cemetery. Chu Jingcong came here every year, but he didn't know who he was worshipping, or even whether it was a man or a woman. He guessed it was a woman.
Chu Jingcong walked up the steps and paused at Qiao Yu's grave.
There is a bunch of flowers on it, still very fresh.
The incense was just lit, and it looked like someone had been there.
He has been coming here for many years, but this is the first time he has encountered such a situation. Someone has come to pay tribute to Qiao Yu and Gu Yunsi.
Chu Jingcong couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it any further and put the flowers down.
Every time he came, he would just bring a bouquet of flowers and sit beside her and talk to her.
But no matter what he said, there was no response.
…
Liang Su left the cemetery and went to Old Lady Ma's house.
Since I finally made it to Coconut City, of course I have to visit her.
Fortunately, the old lady has recovered a lot, but she still can't walk well and needs a long time to rest.
Nanny Yang came up with tea. "The old lady was making a fuss about going out to eat, saying she was tired of the food at home. Fortunately, Liang Su came and she stopped making a fuss."
The old lady said angrily, "Am I making a fuss? I'm tired of eating bone soup or fish at home. I want to go out and eat something new... Liang Su, you smell so good."
Liang Su glanced at the stains on his body and smiled helplessly: "It's the broth of braised pork. The braised pork made by my mother-in-law is really delicious."
The old lady swallowed her saliva like a greedy cat and said, "I want to eat."
Liang Su looked embarrassed and glanced at Shen Congji.
"Old lady, we have some in the car, but to be honest, they were used to offer sacrifices to my mother."
She first made it clear to the old lady that if she still wanted to eat it, it was okay to take it down.
Old Madam Ma waved her hands proudly. "It's just a formality. How can a deceased person eat again? My son has been gone for so many years. Every year I make his favorite desserts, but he never eats them. Bring them over and let me try them."
She was old and had to bury her young mother. Liang Su lost her mother at a young age, which made the old lady feel a sense of mutual understanding.
Shen Congji took the two bowls of braised pork from the car and handed them to Mrs. Yang, asking her to help heat them up.
Mrs. Yang smiled helplessly, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Shen Congji said: "Whatever the elderly in the family want to eat, we must try our best to satisfy them. If they are happy, everyone will be happy."
Mrs. Yang nodded repeatedly and carried the braised pork into the kitchen.
Braised pork belly is delicious, but it is rich in fat, so the elderly should not eat too much.
Mrs. Yang only brought up one bowl and let the old lady eat a few pieces before she could no longer eat.
Old Mama put down her chopsticks in displeasure, "I feel uncomfortable being controlled even when eating braised pork belly."
Liang Su advised: "It's too fatty. You really can't eat too much. Save the rest for your dinner tonight."
Soon, a voice came from outside: "Grandma, I brought you coconut cake..."
Liang Su raised his eyebrows. It was Xu Yan's voice.
She looked back, her face calm.
Xu Yan, on the other hand, was not very good at hiding her emotions and seemed a little unhappy.
The old lady didn't seem to like her very much and said bluntly, "There are guests here, don't make a fuss."
Xu Yan forced a smile and said, "Yes."
Liang Su then thought about her relationship with Gu Xia, and her grandmother's home was in Coconut City, so it was not surprising that she knew Old Mrs. Ma.
The old lady was impatient to see Xu Yan. She didn't even look at the coconut cake she bought, and stood up and said she wanted to go back to the house to change clothes.
Mrs. Yang helped her into the house and let Liang Su and Shen Congji do as they pleased.
As soon as the old lady left, Xu Yan couldn't help it.
"Liang Su, why are you here?"
Liang Su glanced at her and pointed at Shen Congji beside him.
"He's here too, why don't you ask him why he's here? Oh, you're afraid of him so you don't dare ask, you just think I'm easy to bully. Xu Yan, is this how your teachers at school teach you to bully the good and fear the bad? You're like this, and you still have the nerve to say the school's teaching quality is poor."
Xu Yan just asked a question and then heard Liang Su reply with so many questions, which made her feel suffocated.
She liked and feared Shen Congji, so of course she didn't dare to ask.
Shen Congji corrected Liang Su's wording: "I am not evil."
Liang Su covered her mouth and giggled, looking at him with curved eyes.
"Slip of the tongue."
Shen Congji knocked her head, but didn't want to use too much force.
"Compared to us, she is evil."
Liang Su nodded, thinking it made sense.
Xu Yan's face twisted with anger, "Chen Congji, how can you say that to me!"
Shen Congji glanced at her coldly, "If I don't say this to you, do I have to let you bully my wife? Xu Yan, we have tolerated you time and time again."
Xu Yan didn't take anything Liang Su said to heart.
But when the same words came out of Shen Congji's mouth, Xu Yan felt sad.
This is the man she has liked for so long, and even after knowing that he is married, her love for him has never changed.
The more Xu Yan thought about it, the sadder she became. She covered her mouth and started crying.
Liang Su blinked innocently, and some people thought she was the one being bullied.
At this time, the old lady came out and said impatiently: "I'm not dead yet, and you're howling here. It's really unlucky!"
Xu Yan caught a glimpse of Gu Xia coming in, and as if she had found a backer, she hurried over.
"Aunt Gu."
Mrs. Ma said bluntly, "Take this annoying guy away quickly and don't send him here again. My house is not a nursery. I have to help them take care of their ignorant children."
Since the first day Xu Yan came here, there has not been a single worry-free day.
Gu Xia pinched her eyebrows helplessly, "I know, Mom, don't be angry."
"Aunt Gu, I..." Xu Yan wanted to explain to her.
Gu Xia interrupted her: "You have been here for several days, go home and spend time with your mother and grandmother. The old lady has someone to take care of her, so you don't need to worry about her."
Seeing that Gu Xia didn't speak up for her, Xu Yan felt humiliated and ran away crying, covering her face.
Liang Su said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Aunt Gu, I didn't expect this to happen."
