Chapter 2: Persistence

His already gray hair was now as white as the old man's face.

Those who cared about the king stared at him closely, as if they were afraid that the king merchant would fall immediately.

However, the old man did not all think of himself as fragile, and although he had some rickets, he still managed to stand there and straighten his back.

And the old man's wife is lying on the sofa at the moment, due to the fatigue of childbirth and the pain of losing her son, the old man's wife is terminally ill.

He also insisted that his wife not attend his son's funeral.

But Lao Wang can't be arrogant to his wife no matter what.

In desperation, the king had to have his wife carried out.

However, the king was still worried that his son had just left, and his wife had followed.

Therefore, the old man did not dare to be careless and always paid attention to his wife.

However, the king's wife seemed to be stronger than the old man, and just quietly looked at the child lying in the coffin, without a single tear.

However, the sadness buried deep in the pupils is something that everyone can feel.

Sometimes, the pain without tears is more painful than the heart-rending cry.

The old man took one last look at his child. It was very deep and serious, as if he wanted to remember a child who had not been born for a long time.

Although the child has been in the world for a short time, in Lao Wang's eyes, this is a father-son relationship. What's more, the boy is the only one for the king.

Doctors had already diagnosed Wang's wife, but it was extremely difficult to have another child after Kang Shi was born, and it may be difficult for Wang's body to have an heir.

So this baby, who died young, was actually the only child of Old Man Wang.

Old man Wang watched quietly.

The person next to him reminded softly, "Old man, it's time."

The old man did not seem to hear the general's words, and remained staring closely at the coffin lying on the cold little corpse.

Seeing that the old man stopped talking like this, the old man sighed helplessly, shook his head and left.

Another old man comforted him: "Old man, grieve, let your nephew go on the road as soon as possible, or be reincarnated as soon as possible."

The old man could hear the voice, and he knew in his heart that the old man was right. But in his heart, he really wanted to see this child again, even if only once.

The facial features are beautiful, the hands and feet are beautiful, but if you die early, how is heaven unfair?!

Lao Wang really didn't want to, didn't want to leave the child like this, didn't want to be powerless, didn't want heaven to have no eyes, and tortured himself like this.

However, such a fate cannot be unwillingly accepted by Wang Laohan.

Everyone didn't want to turn into a helpless sigh, Wang Laohan turned around, dragged his rickety body, and slowly walked to the good wife in front of the bed.

However, when the old man passed by, he whispered, "Old Zhao, seal the coffin."

After speaking, the old man Wang seemed to put aside all his reluctance and walked firmly towards his wife.

But Old Man Wang didn't notice that at the moment when he turned to leave, the cold corpse that was lying in the coffin had been slightly moved. Everyone's eyes followed the departure of the old man and the old man, and naturally no one found the strange coffin.

Lao Zhao listened to Wang's words, looked at his pale face, and couldn't help but think of the days when he was with him when he was a child.

In addition to grief, Mr. Zhao seemed to have died of his own child, and he couldn't get used to seeing the child and asked someone to seal the coffin.

At the moment when the coffin was sealed, Kang, who was still holding back tears, finally shed tears.

Crying more and more, as if tearing the heart and lungs, makes people feel sad.

The old man walked up to his wife worriedly and comforted Kang gently, but to no avail. He had to gently hold Kang in his arms and make her cry.

Then, when no one was looking, the king turned his head and wiped away his tears.

The hearts of those present were also very uncomfortable as if they had been blocked by a stone.

He wiped away his tears and said to others, "Please bring her home."

"But" The man next to him seemed to be about to speak, but was interrupted by the old man Wang. "Do as I say."

Seeing this situation, others could only shake their heads helplessly.

Everyone knows that Lao Wang is very worried about Kang Shi, and Lao Wang is also doing his best for Kang Shi. After all, the small one has already left, and if something happens to the big one, even Merchant Wang can't stand it.

More importantly, Mr. Wang's expression is unquestionable.

Everyone knows that Lao Wang's stubborn temper is as famous as his merchants.

They had no choice but to step forward, ready to lie on the bed and cry, and the tears were carried back to the room like Kang Shi. At that moment, a baby's low cry came from the other side of the coffin that had been lifted.

But because of the layers of wood and chaos, most people don't notice.

But Lao Zhao, who was closest to the coffin, heard it clearly.

At first, Zhao thought he had misheard, but when he listened carefully, he still heard it clearly.

Lao Zhao seemed to be thinking about something. He felt a palpitation and let go of his hand. The coffin fell to the ground with a thud.

When the coffin fell, everyone present was stunned, and there was no sound for a while, even Kang Shi, who was crying heartbreakingly, was stunned, staring straight at Lao Zhao.

Suddenly, Kang Shi's eyes rolled and he fainted directly.

However, a crack in the coffin made the baby's faint cry even louder.

Old Man Wang tried to keep his composure at the moment, but he couldn't do it anyway.

The child who originally thought he had died was crying from the coffin at this moment, but his wife's life and death were unknown, so Lao Wang didn't panic.

However, he retreated back in a panic and experienced the pain of loss, Lao Wang followed his instinct and reaction: save the big thing first!

The old man quickly let his wife into the house and soon called a doctor.

When everything was ready, the king looked at the coffin in front of him in a daze.

In his early years, Wang Laohan heard a proverb in the countryside: "Lie to the dead".

But as the crying had not stopped, the king's heart was still a little hesitant.

At this time, no one dared to approach the coffin, and everyone was afraid that the coffin was a bad person and would kill people when they came out.

However, the old man also knew that it was impossible to just put the coffin there.

"With fire, uncle! I've heard that if you come across a corpse, you can burn it!" The younger generation couldn't help but say to Mr. Wang.

The old man was stunned, then looked around and looked into the eyes of the people, apparently everyone thought that their child was a corpse.

"But what if the child is really alive?" The old man thought to himself, "What if this boy really comes back to life and I burn him to death with a torch?"

But soon, Mr. Wang gave his own answer.
