Jian Yixue quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, I've already eaten a lot. If I eat any more, my stomach will burst."
Afterwards, Ye Mohan paid the bill, and the two returned to the Dongfang family home.
Jian Yixue then remembered the topic she had led off-topic and asked, "Nie Bin, what are you planning to do?"
Ye Mohan said, "I had Ye Yi hand him over to Youju."
Jian Yixue nodded. "Yes. I think I'm too good, making sure that their family wanted to be there for them until the very end."
Hearing the sound, Ye Mohan smiled.
...
Dongfang Yi only heard about what happened last night after he got up early in the morning.
He immediately led Ding Yi to Tinglan Pavilion.
At this time, Jian Yixue and her companion were still not up.
When Dongfang Tinglan saw Dongfang Yi who had come looking for her, she immediately told him that Jian Yixue had not yet gotten up, so Dongfang Yi did not barge in.
Seeing that Jian Yixue's approach was not working, Dongfang Yi asked Dongfang Tinglan about what happened last night.
Dongfang Tinglan then told him everything that had happened the night before.
After listening, Dongfang Yi was somewhat unconvinced and said, "Why don't they come looking for me? Am I so worthless now?"
Nothing happened in his courtyard last night, and he slept soundly until dawn.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Tinglan was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening.
He chuckled helplessly, "You silly child, this isn't a good thing, yet you still have to rush to do it."
Dongfang Yi was about to say something when Ding Yi, who had come along, tugged at his sleeve and shook his head.
Dongfang Yi glanced at her and immediately understood what she meant, so he didn't say anything more.
Looking at the two of them, Dongfang Tinglan's eyes held a hint of gossipy affection.
In her opinion, this was a good thing. They could become a family, and she could make up for the debt she owed to her disciple as a master.
Dongfang Tinglan said, "Alright, since you're all here, why don't you have breakfast here? It's rare for us to get together like this."
Dongfang Yi did not refuse and nodded.
"There are pastries on the table. If you're hungry, have some first. I'll go cook."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi said, "Master, I'll help you out."
Dongfang Yi looked at the empty seat next to him with a sense of helplessness.
Gong Beize happened to come out of the room and said, "Yi'er, play chess with me."
Jian Yixue got up because of the aroma of the food. When she finished cleaning up and came to the dining room, the table was already full of delicious dishes.
At the table, Dongfang Yi told Jian Yixue that if they needed any help from the Dongfang family, they should not hesitate to ask.
No matter what she does, the Dongfang family and he will always stand behind her.
Ye Mohan felt uneasy listening to Dongfang Yi's words.
What, can't he even protect his own woman? Does he need to step in?
However, on second thought, there's nothing wrong with that.
It's a good thing that there's another person standing behind Xue'er.
After finishing their meal, the group went to meet up at the old man's courtyard.
The old man looked at the crowd before him and said, "Although he was not a blood relative of the Dongfang family, he lived in the Dongfang family his whole life. Now that he has passed away, let's not dwell on the mistakes he made in his lifetime, but go and send him off on his final journey."
No one spoke; they all nodded.
When everyone arrived at the mourning hall, only Dongfang Die was kneeling there.
Old Master Dongfang stepped forward, and Dongfang Die immediately looked up at him.
Upon seeing the person who had arrived, he immediately said, "Grandpa."
Looking back, he then greeted everyone else one by one.
"Where is your mother?" the old man asked with concern.
Dongfang Die truthfully replied, "Mother stayed with Father for a long time last night, so she probably hasn't gotten up yet."
"Grandpa wants to see Mom? I'll go get her right now."
He then got up and left.
The old man did not stop him.
The old man stared at the coffin for a long time without moving.
Jian Yixue watched all of this without feeling anything.
In her opinion, Dongfang Yelei's fate was entirely his own doing, and she had no sympathy for such a person.
She thought there were probably two reasons why the old man acted this way.
First, I failed my friend's request.
The second is the father-son relationship that has lasted for over forty years.
Both of these things were tormenting the old man.
Before long, Dongfang Die and Tong Shuirong appeared together.
Tong Shuirong did not greet anyone.
Jian Yixue looked at her and saw a deep-seated hatred in her gaze.
Jian Yixue frowned, completely baffled as to why this was happening.
Could it be that she really blames Dongfang Yelei's death on them?
Jane Yixue was completely baffled.
The others saw it too, but none of them said anything.
Grandpa Dongfang looked at Tong Shuirong and said, "Second daughter-in-law, Ye Lei has been gone for some time now. Now that he has been brought back, it would be best to bury him as soon as possible."
Tong Shuirong clenched her fingers tightly and remained silent.
The old man said, "Although he is not of the Dongfang family bloodline, he has lived in the Dongfang family for more than forty years. Let him be buried in our Dongfang family cemetery in Lancheng."
The ancestors of the Dongfang family were all from China, so naturally they were buried in China after their deaths. They simply moved their memorial tablets here.
The cemetery mentioned was naturally a newly found one here.
It will also be the place where the future members of the Dongfang family will belong.
The reason for not cremating is to follow the custom of Z country and bury the body for peace.
Seeing that Tong Shuirong remained silent, the old man spoke up, "Second daughter-in-law, what do you think?"
After a long pause, Tong Shuirong, who had been called out, lowered her head and said, "I will leave it to Father to decide."
The next day, Dongfang Yelei was laid to rest.
Tong Shuirong did not sleep late at night.
The conversation between the old man and the mysterious man kept replaying in her mind.
Suddenly, she jumped out of bed.
He picked up a small package from the table, clutched it tightly, and then went out the door.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Die, worried that her mother might not be able to handle it, happened to arrive at the side of Tong Shuirong's room.
Just then, I saw Tong Shuirong hurrying out of her house in the night.
Dongfang Die was about to call out for help, but Tong Shuirong was so fast that she quickly disappeared from sight.
Dongfang Die had no choice but to give up. She was curious about what her mother was doing out at this hour, so she followed her.
Dongfang Die followed Tong Shuirong through a maze of turns until they arrived at a spacious meadow.
Dongfang Die peeked over and saw Tong Shuirong standing next to a well, which startled her.
Seeing Tong Shuirong looking towards the well, she couldn't help but rush over.
"Mom! What are you doing!"
Tong Shuirong was startled by the sudden sound, and the medicine powder in her hand was spilled all over the ground.
She turned her head to look, and was suddenly grabbed by Dongfang Die. Due to the inertia, the two of them fell to the ground.
