Chapter 52

On the first night of grandma's funeral, it suddenly began to snow, Lu Shengnan looked at the snowflakes and said to Zhang Yi, who was accompanying her to wake the spirit: "I once read a book that said that the funeral on a snowy day shows that this deceased person is very blessed, because the road after the snow is a clean new road, and this person is going to heaven;

If it were someone else, Zhang Yi would definitely scoff at it, what kind of fallacy is this, but he knew Lu Shengnan's feelings for his grandmother, and he knew the guilt in her heart, so he comforted her and said that such a kind person as grandma must have gone to heaven.

In the morning, there were more people in the courtyard, Mr. Yin Yang presided over the funeral ceremony, Lu Shengnan and his family knelt in the courtyard and watched a wave of people come to the spirit to pay tribute and burn paper, the men looked solemn, the women mourned and wept, Lu Shengnan's aunt and aunt cried loudly; Zhang Yi stood aside and looked at Lu Shengnan, the adult women's filial piety clothes and hats were covered with a piece of linen, he couldn't see Lu Shengnan's face and couldn't hear her crying, only saw that the ground in front of her was wet, and there were big tears falling.

After the demolition of the funeral shed, Mr. Yin and Yang announced the opening of the coffin, let the relatives walk around the coffin to say goodbye to the grandmother's remains, Lu Shengnan's two aunts and a few women lay next to the coffin crying and did not let the coffin be covered, Lu Shengnan also tightly held the coffin and looked at the grandmother lying in the coffin, the tears on his face poured down; Lu Shengli and several men were busy helping up their aunts, but pulling one apart and the other crying and jumping up, the scene became chaotic for a while, Zhang Yi looked at Lu Shengnan crying all morning and was distressed, but he didn't know what to do, for fear of disrupting the etiquette order, seeing Lu Shengli's movements, he squeezed through the crowd and came to Lu Shengnan's back to pick her up and leave the coffin, Lu Shengnan struggled to get off the ground, Zhang Yi only hugged her tightly, pressed her head to his chest to prevent her from seeing the action of covering the coffin, and kept whispering in her ear: "Lu Shengnan, don't cry, I'm here." ”

Carrying her in the car, Zhang Yi drove the hearse to the cemetery of Lu Shengnan's house, and did not complete the entire burial procedure until noon, Lu Shengnan has been kneeling on the side of the cemetery and looking at it with tears, Zhang Yi felt that this half day was very painful, looking at Lu Shengnan's tears did not stop, only felt that his heart was stinging as if he was pricked by something;

There were only Lu Shengnan and Zhang Yi in the cemetery, Lu Shengnan was still kneeling in front of his grandmother's grave, Zhang Yi walked over and knelt beside her and kowtowed three times before saying in a deep voice: "Grandma, I am Zhang Yi, I know that you are most worried about Lu Shengnan, please rest assured, I will take care of her in the future." ”

Lu Shengnan, who was trapped in memories on the side, saw his actions and said lightly: "Zhang Yi, thank you." I'll stay with grandma for a while, it's cold here, you can wait for me in the car. ”

"I'm with you, and I'm sure grandma will be happy to see me with you. ”

Lu Shengnan didn't care about him anymore, sat next to him with his knees crossed and thought about his grandmother's bits and pieces, and occasionally said a few words to Zhang Yi about how his grandmother spoiled her, Zhang Yi didn't speak, just stayed by her side quietly, and put the military coat that slipped down for her from time to time.

That night, Lu Shengnan led Zhang Yi and Lu Shengli's family of three back to their home in G City, and her parents stayed in the village to deal with the follow-up matters with her uncles and aunts;

In the evening, when I went back to my parents' house, Lu Shengnan arranged for Zhang Yi to rest in the bedroom where she usually lived, she went to the bedroom where her grandmother usually lived, and looked at the things that her grandmother usually used, and her tears fell silently; Zhang Yi leaned on the door and watched for a while and couldn't help frowning: "Lu Shengnan, are you going to shed all the tears of your life? If you continue to cry like this, will you die? Do you know how heartbroken I am when you cry like this?"

After speaking, he stepped forward and took the things in her hand and put them aside, hurriedly made the bed and pressed her in the quilt, looked into her eyes and whispered: "Lu Shengnan, I know that you are sad that grandma is gone, but you still have your parents and younger brother, you and me, Liu Yang, and your office and colleagues, don't cry, sleep well, we should go back to H City tomorrow." ”

Lu Shengnan closed his eyes, and there was an even breathing sound for a while, Zhang Yi looked at her quietly, reached out and brushed the messy hair on her forehead away, and couldn't help but gently caress her cheeks;

Just quietly guarding her sleeping peacefully, Zhang Yi always felt that he couldn't see enough, he had never felt like this in his twenty-five years of life, he left his parents to live in school since he was a child, and there were no brothers and sisters at home, even after the earthquake in his hometown, he knew that his parents died and he went back to deal with the funeral and just felt panicked, never knew that he could also be heartbroken because of a person; he was originally withdrawn, and he didn't like to talk after the death of his parents, so he basically had no friends except Liu Yang, and he was just curious to pay attention to Lu Shengnan at first, thinking that if she needed it, she would help her to repay her for her funding, but he really didn't expect that one day Lu Shengnan could influence his mood, it turned out that this was what it felt like to like someone, Zhang Yi suddenly laughed silently in the silence, he liked this feeling very much.

The next day, Lu Shengli went back to the countryside to pick up his parents, and the family had lunch together, Zhang Yi politely answered their questions, at least there was no poisonous tongue; After hearing this, her mother still didn't feel at ease and told her, saying that she felt that the young man was afraid that he really liked her, and asked her to pay attention to herself, and Lu's mother felt that she might not be able to accept her daughter to find a boyfriend who was so young.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Shengnan and Zhang Yi said goodbye to their families and drove on the highway back to H City.
