The second day was a sunny day, and under the auspices of Uncle Auntie, everyone made final preparations before the funeral.

Xiao Wu, who slept a lot, was in a lot better, she didn't cry hoarsely, just sobbed, grabbing her father's stiff hand and refusing to let go.

Uncle Ji persuaded, "Xiao Wu, you can't miss the hour, you don't want your father to ...... It's not going well over there, isn't it?".

Xiao Wu knows that her mother is like this, after the coffin is closed, she will never see each other again, no matter how bad her father is, it is also her last relative.

At the last moment of closing the coffin, Xiao Wu lost control of her emotions and cried willfully.

"No, uncle, as soon as you close it, you can't see your father, don't ......"

"Good boy, let go"

Uncle Ji was afraid that he would miss the time, so he was ruthless, broke Xiao Wu's fingers one by one, waved his hand and ordered, "Come on, pull her away and cover the coffin."

"Xiao Wu, come here, Brother Niu is here, don't cry, be obedient ......"

The chubby Ah Niu, with a tired body, came back with some more things, and when he saw Xiao Wu crying sadly, he stepped forward in a few steps, pulled her to his side, and pulled her into his thick arms.

"Daddy......"

Buckled between Ah Niu's arms, Xiao Wu shouted mournfully, she watched as the four men covered the coffin, and nailed it with another "ding, clang".

Everyone present was moved, and many couldn't help but wipe away tears.

Zhou Dan, who had been watching not far away, had a sour nose, this life and death were bitter, it was really bitter, he was worried that those raw and hard pulls would hurt Xiao Wu again.

Seeing Ah Niu in tears, holding Xiao Wu in his arms and imprisoning him, Zhou Dan's face showed displeasure.

From the coffin to the burial, and then to a new grave, Xiao Wu did what she had to do according to the etiquette under the care and guidance of Aunt Chen and Brother A Niu.

Xiao Wu didn't cry and shout hysterically like when she said goodbye to her mother, she just cried and cried in a low voice.

Ah Niu held a handkerchief, very clumsy but very gentle, wiping Xiao Wu's tears from time to time.

Xiao Wu's strings and rows of tears have never been broken, and her lips are always tightly pursed, depending on this to keep her sadness in her heart.

She has no relatives and has become an orphan, Xiao Wu feels unprecedented grief.

In Zhou Dan's eyes, the silent crying is more painful, he would rather Xiao Wu cry happily, crying, and his heart will feel better.

Zhou Dan hopes to take the lonely and sad Xiao Wu into his arms and tell her that he wants to be her relative and protect her for the rest of her life.

Today, a new mound, separated from her dearest two people, her father and mother were reunited underground, leaving their flesh and blood alone, struggling in this cold and troubled world.

Xiao Wu shed tears, looked up at Uncle Ji, just like the cold winter day when her mother died, and pleaded: "I think, alone...... Accompany my father and mother again".

"Okay! Come back early"

Uncle Ji sent away the villagers who were helping, and when he walked to Aunt Chen and Ah Niu with a sigh in one step, he looked at Ah Niu with an anxious face, and opened his mouth to persuade.

"Ah Niu, you worked hardest, last night...... I haven't slept yet, let's go back and rest, let Xiao Wu stay alone, cry, she can feel better"

Ah Niu frowned, looked at his mother, and then at his uncle, hesitated for a long time, and begged: "Uncle Ji, mother, please, help me...... Tell that boy, let's ...... Xiao Wu ...... Redeem it, I, I ...... I married her and didn't want to ...... Let her be out there and suffer again."

Aunt Chen looked at her son, stunned for a moment, and also looked at Uncle Ji, "Brother Ji, since the child has this wish, please help...... Talking and talking, we all like it, Xiao Wu, this child, can't look at her, and keep doing ...... Slaves, our family...... It will be good for Xiao Wu, and for Xiao Wu, it is also a good place to know the roots."

Uncle Ji thought about it with heavy eyebrows, turned his head to look at Zhou Dan and the others, who had been watching from a distance at the edge of the woods, and sighed.

"Okay, that master, he is a knowledgeable person, and he is good to Xiao Wu, so he may be able to agree...... Redeem Xiao Wu, Ah Niu, you stay here, I'll ask your mother."

Ah Niu's face was expectant, rubbing a pair of big hands, smiling honestly, and bowing his head shyly.

"Thank you...... Uncle Aunt!"

Uncle Ji took Aunt Chen, walked to Zhou Dan's side, waved his hand and saluted, looked at Zhou Dan, who was full of tiredness, and hesitated to speak.

"Childe, please, thank you for always being with me, Xiao Wu is really blessed to have a master like you"

Zhou Dan returned the salute, "Lu Xu, you're polite, you, is there something wrong?"

Uncle Ji lowered his eyebrows, his throat moved twice, and said slowly: "Oh, there is something, and Gongzi also saw it, Xiao Wu is a hard-working child who pays off his father's debts...... Sold into slavery, both parents died, and the villagers watched...... I don't have a heart to endure, I want to beg my son, can I be gracious...... Permit us to redeem her?".

When Zhou Dan heard this, his body was shocked, his face suddenly became ugly, and he refused categorically.

"No way!"

Aunt Chen had already had the idea of letting Xiao Wu be her daughter-in-law, and today her son proposed it himself, how could the mother not do her best and be busy with her and carefully interject.

"Childe, you are a good-hearted nobleman, just be gracious, feel sorry...... Our little dance, she has been ...... since she was a child I took care of it as a daughter, and my son was a childhood sweetheart, and we couldn't bear it...... Look at her falling. Xiao Wu is young...... I don't have much strength, I can't do any work, Childe, you can buy some more good ones, please show mercy, just let it go, how much do you say it costs?

When Aunt Chen spoke, Zhou Dan's eyes never left Xiao Wu's back, how could he let go? Not to mention being a daughter-in-law for others.

Xiao Wu should have entered her heart from the moment she heard her first flute sound, and Zhou Dan had already had the mind to accompany her for a lifetime.

Zhou Dan's eyes were cold and resolute, and when he looked back, Uncle and Aunt Chen, their faces were even more angry, and their tones were cold and hard.

"She signed a death contract, and in this life, she can only be the person of her son"

Aunt Chen continued to beg, "Childe, please ......."

"Hugh said more, it's impossible! This ......", Zhou Dan was in a hurry, almost revealing his identity, and hurriedly stopped his mouth.

Seeing the grandfather's annoyance, Junbao knew in his heart how much the grandfather valued Xiao Wu? How could he agree to let her redeem herself and leave?

"Don't dwell on it anymore, leave quickly, otherwise, don't blame me...... You're welcome"

The humble son, who has always seemed to be very sensible, turned his face at this time, and the entourage around him became even more fierce.

Seeing Zhou Dan's decision, Uncle Ji felt that it was useless to say more, with helplessness on his face, he glanced at Aunt Chen, shook his head and sighed.

"Alas, Ah Niu Niang, let's go, wait for two years...... Let's talk about it."

"Ahh......h It's, what's the matter?"

Aunt Chen made an angry face, walked to Ah Niu's side, couldn't help but say, pulled him and walked back, she was afraid that her son Ah Niu would be impulsive and couldn't suppress his temper, so he would provoke Zhou Dan and others who were not good at talking.

"Ah Niu, go home with my mother"

"I ?......"

From the movements and expressions of his mother and uncle and each other, Ah Niu also saw that the conversation was not going well, although he was reluctant to go back, but after looking at a few entourages with swords, he knew that he couldn't afford to provoke him, so he reluctantly followed.

Xiao Wu didn't know what was happening, she just knelt in front of her father's grave and didn't shed tears, she was afraid that her tears would make her mother sad when she saw it.

Xiao Wu is recalling in her mind that there are not many happy times when the family is together. She wanted to accompany her more, and her mother, who she hadn't seen for more than two years, was talking to her mother in her heart.

The empty woods were swept down by the autumn wind, and the lonely leaves fluttered, rolled, and struggled with the wind, and finally fell to the ground, or were swept away by the wind, and did not know where to go, or were wet by the muddy water, and scattered into mud.

A lowly and short life, life and death are all controlled, empty whimpering and struggling, silent and helpless.

shrunk in the wind like fallen leaves, as well as Xiao Wu's thin body, she is like a pear blossom budding in early spring, but she suffered a sudden storm, she can't bear the wind and rain, fluttering on the branches, and is about to fall.

A beautifully embroidered cloak was draped on Xiao Wu's thin and languid body, and the cold cloak could not be fully warm, but Xiao Wu's heart still had a trace of ripples.

Xiao Wu, who has a delicate heart, can see clearly and understand that his grandfather is really good to him, but because of this, he can't delay him.

The grandfather has committed crimes, refused to marry, and repeatedly violated the rules and laws advocated by himself, whether it is because of himself or not, and he cannot be affected again because he is sad and afraid.

For his sake, you must stay away from him.

"Grandpa!?"

A cold snort came from Xiao Wu's shrunken body.

With just this sound, Zhou Dan could hear Xiao Wu's suppressed dissatisfaction, which stemmed from the fact that he didn't trust her, didn't fulfill his promise, and didn't give her the little space she wanted.

Standing behind Xiao Wu, Zhou Dan stared at the thin back, and sighed in his heart, he couldn't enter her heart after all, she didn't believe or want to, he was willing to share the pain with her.

Zhou Dan sneered: "Ah, I'...... I'll leave, and the horse is tied under the pomegranate tree, and the medicine ...... Put it on the couch, definitely, remember to change the dressing."

didn't get a response from Xiao Wu, Zhou Dan was a little embarrassed by her alienation and indifference, and was silent for a long time, and turned away in infinite loss under the incomprehensible gaze of Junbao and the attendants.

Zhou Dan let his horse run all the way, depending on venting the unhappiness in his heart, he didn't understand, he was so good to Xiao Wu, why was she always so indifferent?

I want to care, but I don't get accepted

I wanted to question, but I couldn't open my mouth

I want to get angry, but I really don't want to

Zhou Dan was embarrassed to death, even more tangled in a mess, when he thought of Xiao Wu, his heart hurt, and what he thought in his eyes was her, so his heart never broke the pain.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? I'm really in love, a girl who isn't a woman yet?"

Zhou Dan was sad in his heart, he couldn't ask for it, he couldn't stop, and he was in pain!
