No matter how big a funeral is, it is just a funeral and cannot hide the sadness of the living.
The white-haired Chen Pingsheng returned to normal after three days.
He also began to quickly deal with everything Song Yanxi left behind and the things that needed his care.
The two of them have been together their entire lives, so it would be a lie to say that they are not sad now.
But he had too many responsibilities and couldn't leave with her at this time.
But just two days later, he was shocked to hear bad news from Chengdu.
My cousin Jiang Peiyao, who retired from the entertainment industry early, went to Chengdu to open a bookstore in obscurity.
Later she adopted two more girls, one was 22 years old, and the other was 18 years old.
Jiang Peiyao grew up with them for the rest of her life and depended on them for everything.
Now, the older one opened the diary that Pei Yao had kept.
Only then did I learn that the reason why she never got married in this life was because she had a silent lover who could not speak.
And now, she rests in peace.
The adopted eldest daughter was very filial. After much deliberation, she took the initiative to make the first call to Chen Pingsheng.
She called from her adoptive mother's cell phone.
Jiang Peiyao passed away, and she only wanted to be buried in the small village in her hometown, with a simple tombstone.
Chen Pingsheng rushed to Chengdu alone without notifying anyone, and only then did he understand the poor life his little cousin had lived all these years.
Jiang Peiyao achieved financial independence very early, but she has never had any ambition in the entertainment industry. Although she has the best resources, she has never used them indiscriminately.
After she retired from the entertainment industry, she used most of her assets to support orphans in welfare homes.
I only have a little money left to live on.
It was not until later that she adopted her two daughters that her life became more meaningful and she became a mother herself.
The two young girls still don’t know that the person their mother has always been thinking about is actually the founder of the famous Tengying Group.
It was the same man who had held a grand burial at sea for his wife.
Chen Pingsheng is already over seventy years old, but apart from the gray hair on his temples, his appearance has not changed much.
He still looks like that gentle and low-key president.
The two daughters also took Jiang Peiyao's surname, and the elder one was named Jiang Wangzhi.
The youngest daughter is only eighteen years old now. Her name is Jiang Wangchu and she is studying in a pretty good university. She cried very hard after Jiang Peiyao left.
The three of them lived together in a small three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment, and even the decoration was the simplest white wall style.
After Chen Pingsheng came over, his eldest daughter Jiang Wangzhi handed him the little diary that her mother treasured like a treasure and said:
"My mother used to stare at it in a daze, and I only found your number by looking through it."
"Did your mother say anything when she left?"
"No, she just said she envied her cousin, and then she passed away."
Jiang Wangzhi was also very sad. She was just about to graduate from college and had not yet properly repaid her adoptive mother, but she had already left.
This is the greatest pain in the world.
A son wants to support his parents, but they are no longer around.
The diary was well preserved, but it was obviously a bit old. When Chen Pingsheng opened it, he saw a day in 2014.
At a young age, Jiang Peiyao was deceived into working in a shady small factory. Later, her cousin's daughter An An appeared with an exaggerated look on her face.
Then he took her father and rescued her from the water and fire.
Later, her brother-in-law asked her to join his entertainment group.
She also started to learn from scratch, and later on, her brother-in-law's business grew bigger and bigger.
She even rarely saw him throughout the year, but Jiang Peiyao still recorded every little detail.
And regard it as a beautiful memory.
Until one day, she mustered up the courage to apologize to her cousin, but also felt relieved by her brother-in-law's answer.
Later, she began to withdraw from the entertainment industry, lived an ordinary life, and then adopted her two daughters.
Be an ordinary mother and raise them both with care.
Jiang Peiyao closed her eyes only after hearing on TV that her cousin had passed away.
He left this world in a rather dramatic way.
At the end of the diary, she wrote another sentence.
"Brother-in-law, I know you will come here to sort out my belongings after I leave. Pei Yao has caused you trouble all your life, and in the end, she will leave you with a small trouble.
"The two girls I adopted are very obedient, but they also have their own problems. Pei Yao is no longer able to solve them for them. I only hope that you, my brother-in-law, can take good care of them for me.
"Brother-in-law, please forgive Pei Yao's willfulness for the last time."
Chen Pingsheng closed the thick diary, looked up and was silent for a long time, then said:
"Your mother left a will, asking me to take good care of you for the rest of her life. She also said that you are all in trouble. Tell me!"
Chen Pingsheng sat down calmly, but that didn't mean he was calm inside.
In just a few days, he lost the most important woman in his life, as well as his little cousin who had loved him all his life.
No matter who it is, they will not be in a good mood.
Jiang Wangzhi said, "We both have biological parents, but they treated us very badly, and their intentions in wanting to recognize us were not pure. My sister and I only want to recognize Pei Yao as our mother, and that will be the case for the rest of our lives."
"You two will definitely not regret your decision today."
After Chen Pingsheng finished speaking, he took Jiang Peiyao's urn and her two daughters back to his hometown.
A tombstone was erected for her in her hometown. Compared with Song Yanxi's grand burial at sea, everything about Jiang Peiyao can only be described as simple.
So simple that there is nothing.
Her parents passed away long ago, and her relatives haven't contacted her for many years.
Jiang Peiyao, the least ambitious relative in the entertainment industry, was also the most calm when he left.
Chen Pingsheng stayed with her for three days before taking her two daughters back to the Magic City.
He also announced in Shanghai that he had two more adopted daughters, one of whom was 22-year-old Jiang Wangzhi.
Another one is eighteen-year-old Jiang Wangchu. Chen Pingsheng never explained to anyone where they came from.
Only on this day at the end of March, Yu Modu announced that he would hold a family recognition banquet.
If Jiang Wangzhi and Jiang Wangchu had the identity of his adopted daughter, it would mean a big difference in their lives.
The simplest way to describe it is that they were just part of the masses before.
In the future, she will be the adopted daughter of a wealthy family and have an extremely noble status.
Chen Pingsheng brought them to his rooftop garden and let them live downstairs. From then on, they would enjoy the highest treatment as top socialites in Shanghai.
"Wangzhi, you two will be my adopted daughters from now on, just like An An and the others. I will arrange for people to give you the best education and training. No matter what you like or what you want to do in the future, just be brave and pursue your dreams.
"Don't have any reservations."
In his entire life, there wasn't much Chen Pingsheng could really do for his little cousin. Helping her take care of her two daughters was probably one of the few things he could do for her.
