Chapter 1468 Funeral
Early in the morning, the old lady was sent to the cemetery.
All the relatives of the He family and the neighbors who were on good terms with the old lady came to see her off for the last time.
Lu Xia and Lu Ziming were both dressed in black, with white flowers on their chests, holding banners and walking in the front.
Huo Yao stood not far away, watching the scene calmly, neither feeling pain nor sadness.
She was also wearing black today. Her thin cheeks were still as pale as snow, and her frail figure seemed like it would fall down with a gust of wind.
Min Yu looked at her and said, "If you want to go..."
Before he finished speaking, Huo Yao seemed to have guessed what he was going to say and interrupted him, "Actually, it's nice to just send grandma off like this."
She was unable to catch up with him before his death, and now that he is buried, she just wants him to go in peace.
If she really appeared in front of He Xiaoman and the others, they would probably have an argument.
She was in no mood to argue with the Lu family.
Seeing this, Min Yu said yes.
…
The old lady’s funeral ceremony was very simple. The whole process took less than half an hour. After everyone paid their respects, they left.
Lu Xia took off the white flower on her chest and placed it on the steps in front of the tombstone. Her eyes swept across the photo on the tombstone, but she quickly turned her head away.
He Xiaoman, who was standing next to her, didn't notice her movements and took off the white flower she was wearing. She raised her hand to check the time and then said to Lu Xia, "Let's go, Xia Xia, or you will miss your flight."
Lu Xia nodded, but then she remembered something and looked around.
"Xia Xia, what are you looking at?" He Xiaoman asked puzzledly.
"No," Lu Xia retracted his gaze and said, "I'm just wondering why Huo Yao didn't come to the funeral today."
When Huo Yao was mentioned, He Xiaoman's face turned ugly, "You ungrateful bastard, it would be better if he didn't come."
Otherwise she would be afraid that she would not be able to help but scold her in public.
Lu Xia pursed her lips slightly, said nothing more, turned around and walked out of the cemetery.
Lu Ziming, who had been silent the whole time, walked behind He Xiaoman and Lu Xia. Due to family changes over the past year, his young face had lost its lawless arrogance and frivolity, and he had become more silent and restrained.
After walking a few steps, he stopped and called He Xiaoman, "Mom, you guys go back first. I want to stay with grandma for a while."
He Xiaoman turned around and glanced at him. "It's very unlucky here. Do you want to stay a while?"
Lu Ziming was silent for a moment and nodded.
Lu Xia also stopped and looked at Lu Ziming. Over the past six months, her brother had become much more sensible and no longer argued with her. Despite the changes, she still couldn't get close to Lu Ziming.
Raising his hand to check the time again, Lu Xia simply said, "Mom, I'll be leaving first."
He Xiaoman reacted and stopped caring about her younger son. She just let him take a taxi home by himself and hurriedly caught up with Lu Xia.
Soon, Lu Ziming was the only one left in the cold and lonely cemetery.
He hugged his chest. Although he was a little scared, he finally turned around and walked back, and found a place to hide.
*
Not long after, Huo Yao came to the old lady's grave. Looking at the smiling photo on the tombstone, she looked a little dazed.
Even though three days have passed, it is still hard to accept.
Huo Yao raised her head and stood quietly for a while before she gently put down the flowers in her hand. When she stood up, she said lightly, "Come out."
Sorry, I didn't write it.
