Chapter 294 Going to the Funeral
Seeing the six of them having fun together, Ning Xuan and Chu Runrun went back.
After learning about this bizarre incident, the army handed the matter over to the abnormal case investigation team for investigation.
In order to protect the safety of Meng Yi and Meng Qi, they were secretly taken away on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
That night, the evil spirits in the bodies of the men in black were removed and transferred over for investigation, and things finally calmed down.
Chu Runrun stayed at home for several days studying the Divine Book of Physiognomy, and achieved remarkable results.
That day, Ning Changbo suddenly received a call from his wife Ruan Qinghua's family, saying that Ruan Qinghua's sister had passed away.
Since Ruan Qinghua passed away, Ning Changbo has had less contact with that place. Now that his wife's sister has passed away, he, as her brother-in-law, should go and see her.
"My aunt passed away! When did it happen?" Ning Youyan asked in surprise.
"She passed away last night. I have had less contact with her since your mother passed away. Guo Hui called me, and I had to go and see her no matter what." Ning Changbo sighed.
"Mom and my aunt had a falling out. When Mom passed away, my aunt just came over to take a look and then left. Dad, you are old, so why don't you let us go?" Ning Youyan said.
"Brother is right. The three of us brothers will go, and you don't have to go." Ning Youzhi and Ning Youwei also agreed.
Ning Changbo waved his hand: "Before your mother died, she told me that she had long since given up on hating what happened. I'm the same way. Now that she's gone, I should go there on her behalf."
"Dad, my aunt's house is not close. Can you handle it?" Ning Youwei asked worriedly.
"It's just a few hours' drive. I'm still pretty strong, so it's okay." Ning Changbo said with a smile.
"Since we are going, let's all go and take these children with us," said Ning Youyan.
"Okay! Go pack your things, we'll leave soon." Ning Changbo said.
As for this aunt, Chu Runrun didn't even know she existed.
"Brother, what's going on with this aunt and grandma?" Chu Runrun asked.
“I’m not very clear about it, but I heard my parents talk about it when I was a child. They said that my grandfather and my uncle’s grandfather had jointly invested in a factory.
As a result, my uncle took away the money without my grandfather's knowledge, which not only caused the factory to go bankrupt, but also left my grandfather in debt.
After my grandmother knew about this, she went to find my great aunt. In order to protect her husband, my great aunt refused to see my grandmother and even refused to tell her where my great uncle had gone.
Later, my great aunt and great uncle divorced and took their children to live in a remote place, and our two families didn't have much contact.
When grandma was still alive, we had to see each other a few times due to some personal relationships. After grandma passed away, our two families hardly kept in touch, so you didn’t know about it.”
"Oh! Will we be gone for a long time this time?" Chu Runrun asked.
"I don't think so. He'll just take some things with him and be back in two or three days." Ning Xuan said.
"What about Dahei? Take it with you!" Chu Runrun said.
"Of course we have to bring Dahei, but he has to turn into a human, otherwise it wouldn't be nice for us to bring a big black dog to the funeral." Ning Xuan said with a smile.
Chu Ruanruan touched Dahei's head and said, "Dahei, did you hear that? You have to be a human for a few more days this time!"
Dahei lowered his head and sighed helplessly.
After everyone packed up their things, they got in the car and set off.
Because they had to hurry, they didn't drive the RV.
We set off at 9am and arrived around 4pm.
It has been a long time since I last came here. Ning Changbo felt a lot of emotions when he set foot in Guo's house again.
In his hand was the wedding ring he and Ruan Qinghua had worn. After Ruan Qinghua passed away, Ning Changbo put the ring on his other ring finger.
"Qinghua, let me take you to see my sister again!"
Ning Changbo kept stroking the ring in his hand.
After Ruan Qingli and Guo Chengshan divorced, she lived alone with her children and never remarried.
Ruan Qingli had a son, Guo Hui, and a daughter, Guo Yun. At this moment, both of them were kneeling in front of the body with white scarves on their heads, crying loudly.
When Ning Changbo entered, Guo Hui had just wiped away tears and went to greet the relatives who had come to the funeral. Seeing Ning Changbo coming, Guo Hui hurried over:
"Uncle, you're here!"
There was clearly a hint of flattery in Guo Hui's expression, but because his mother had just died, he didn't dare to laugh.
"Guo Hui, let me take another look at her sister on behalf of your aunt!" Ning Changbo said.
"Hey, good! Good!"
Guo Hui hurried over and pulled his sister Guo Yun and wife aside.
"Uncle, please!"
Ning Changbo frowned calmly, and sighed helplessly as he looked at the body in the coffin.
"Sister, have a safe journey. What happened is all in the past. Your sister and I don't blame you anymore!"
"Uncle, there are many guests here. Please go sit in the next room!" Guo Hui said hurriedly.
"Let the children see their aunt. They haven't seen her much!" said Ning Changbo.
"Okay!" Guo Hui glanced at the large group of people behind him.
Ning Youyan's three brothers and their wives all stepped forward and bowed. Ning Yu also walked over with his five younger brothers and sisters to take a look at Ruan Qingli.
This place is remote and the mourning hall is very sloppy. The Ning family looks out of place among the villagers wearing old cotton-padded jackets.
"Guo Hui, please greet other guests first, we won't cause you any trouble!"
Ning Changbo was about to leave when Guo Hui hurriedly stopped him:
"Uncle, you came all this way here, don't be in such a hurry to leave!"
"I didn't say I was leaving. There are too many people here. We can't delay their condolences!" Ning Changbo frowned.
"Oh! Okay! Then I'll take you to the next room to rest for a while!" A flattering smile appeared on Guo Hui's face, but disappeared in an instant.
Chu Ruanruan was a little surprised: "Brother, why is this cousin so weird?"
"I haven't seen him much, so he's indeed a bit strange." Ning Xuan whispered.
"What are you two doing whispering to each other? Let's go!" Ning Yu urged.
Guo Hui brought them to a slightly shabby house, but fortunately it was clean. The tables and chairs in the house had been wiped and there was not a trace of dust on them.
"Grandpa, how many days will we stay here?" Ning Feng asked.
"The funeral will probably be held tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Let's wait until the coffin is buried before we leave!" said Ning Changbo.
"The coffin is buried! No cremation?" Ning Zhi frowned.
"When we first arrived, we saw many graves on the hills. This area is backward, so cremation should not be practiced there!" Ning Yu said.
"Okay! This is someone else's business. We'll leave after the funeral is over. The place here is not big, so we'll just make do with it." Ning Changbo said.
Chu Runrun looked at the gradually darkening sky outside and rubbed her eyes tiredly.
"Brother, I'm a little sleepy!"
"Sit there and take a nap. I'll lean on you!" Ning Xuan said with a smile.
Chu Ruanruan nodded, leaned in Ning Xuan's arms and closed her eyes.
Ning Xuan even took out a small blanket from her bag and covered Chu Ruanruan with it.
There were bursts of wailing outside, but Chu Runrun was sleeping soundly in the room.
