239 Funeral in the rain
It turns out that after death, there is only a handful of ashes left, and you can't feel how much weight you put in the box and hold it in your hand.
The weather wasn't so good today, the sky outside was overcast and dark, and it looked like it might rain at any moment.
Wu Wenlan came to the funeral home after Mi Jia got the urn, and Cheng's father was now abroad because of business and couldn't come back.
The cemetery was some distance from the funeral home, and Mijia was silent along the way, everyone was silent, no one said a word, and the whole space seemed to be heavy.
Before we reached the cemetery, the sky was already raining, and it seemed that even God was crying for my grandmother's departure.
Mi Jia got out of the car with the urn, I don't know when it started, the box that was so light suddenly became as heavy as a thousand catties, and the heavy Mi Jia felt a little unable to step out.
Cheng Yue stood beside her, holding her an umbrella, seeing that she was not leaving, knowing that she was uncomfortable, he whispered in her ear, "Mijia? ”
Mi Jia came back to her senses, pursed her lips, and walked forward step by step.
Obviously there is not much to do, but Mi Jia seems to have walked for a long time and when she finally arrives, Mi Jia's face is already full of tears, but her lips are always bitten to death.
Cheng Yue felt sorry for her, hugged her shoulders hard, and whispered in her ear, "Mi Jia, don't do this." ”
Mi Jia didn't know how she managed to survive until the end of the funeral, but she remembered that she was barely able to stand on her feet because Cheng Yue was half embraced.
She didn't know how many people were giving flowers, and she didn't know what the priest had said before, so she could only watch as the urn was covered with dirt, and the rain splashed mud on the ground.
From now on, my grandmother is really going to disappear from her life.
Mi Jia didn't know how long this funeral had lasted, she only remembered that she was hugged by Cheng Yue and left, and she couldn't use any strength at all.
It's just that Mi Jia didn't expect to meet people from the Jiang family when he turned around, Jiang Heshan, Jiang Junjie and Jiang Chengdong were all there.
Cheng Yue was stunned, Mi Jia was also a little stunned, and then remembered that today happened to be the death taboo of her parents, and they were buried in this cemetery, very close to her grandmother.
Jiang Heshan looked at them with some surprise, and when he saw the stone tablet of Mi Jia's grandmother behind Mi Jia, he couldn't help but widen his eyes a little, and exclaimed in an exclamation voice, "Dong Xianglan, she ...... dead?"
Mi Jia glanced away from him, only turned to Cheng Yue and said, "Take me home." ”
Cheng Yue nodded, holding an umbrella and helping her away.
When he took over Jiang Heshan and them, Jiang Junjie couldn't help but call her, "Sister......"
Mi Jia was indifferent, did not look back to see them, and walked straight ahead.
Lu Xiaoxiao drove them back, Mi Jia didn't say a word along the way, the atmosphere was very heavy, and everyone didn't speak.
After returning home, Mi Jia locked herself directly in her grandmother's room, and everyone understood her current mood, so no one bothered her.
Lu Xiaoxiao's company also had an emergency meeting, and before leaving, he asked Cheng Yue to take care of Mi Jia, and then left in a hurry.
After Lu Xiaoxiao left, in addition to Mi Jia Chengyue and Aunt Qin, only Wu Wenqing and Wu Wenlan were left in the family.
Wu Wenlan asked Cheng Yue, a little curious about the relationship between Mi Jia and the Jiang family.
Cheng Yue was not in the mood to respond and explain too much, so he simply said a word, and explained that Aunt Qin prepared some porridge and side dishes for him and Mi Jia, and then turned around and walked towards his grandmother's room.
When she opened the door and went in, Mi Jia was sitting on the bed that her grandmother slept on before, holding the few photos left by her grandmother in her hand, reaching out and touching it gently, her eyes were red, and there were tears on her face.
Cheng Yue stepped forward, sat down beside her, didn't say anything, just reached out and hugged her into his arms, if she wanted to cry, he let her lean on like this.
Being hugged by him like this, Mi Jia's tears were like bursting the embankment, and she couldn't control it, so she leaned on Cheng Yue's arms and cried directly.
I don't know how long I cried in Cheng Yue's arms with the photo in this way, maybe I didn't sleep all night last night, and it doesn't matter if I cried for most of the day today, Mi Jia finally cried in his arms and fell asleep tiredly.
didn't carry her back to the master bedroom upstairs, Cheng Yue gently helped her to lie down, pulled the quilt over her and covered her, and Cheng Yue quietly retreated from the room.
In the living room, Wu Wenqing and Wu Wenlan were still sitting, and Aunt Qin was preparing today's lunch in the kitchen.
Seeing Cheng Yue come out, Wu Wenqing asked, "How is Mi Jia?" ”
"I was tired of crying and fell asleep." Cheng Yue replied truthfully.
"Ugh." Wu Wenqing sighed softly, "This time is the most difficult time for Mi Jia, Ah Yue, you must be by her side more." ”
Cheng Yue nodded and only said, "I know." ”
"Ah Yue, you're wet, go take a shower and change your clothes." Wu Wenlan noticed that most of his clothes were wet, thinking that he had just patronized Mi Jia in the cemetery to hold an umbrella and didn't notice that he was wet.
Cheng Yue realized that he was indeed a little cold, and nodded and went upstairs.
In the living room, Wu Wenqing looked at his sister and asked, "Will you stay for a while this time?" ”
"Is it here?" Wu Wenlan shook her head and said, "The plane at four o'clock in the afternoon, I have to leave later." ”
Wu Wenqing disagreed, looked at her and said, "Now that Mi Jia is in a situation, it's good to take care of Ah Yue." ”
"Cheng Chao's case is going to court in a few days, and I have to find someone for him to have a relationship with." Wu Wenlan said helplessly.
Wu Wenqing glanced at her and only said, "I don't want to comment on anything about this, I just think you must have made a mistake at the beginning, Cheng Chao is your son." ”
Wu Wenlan smiled bitterly, glanced at her sister and said, "You haven't experienced what I have experienced, you won't understand the fear of being woken up by the same nightmare every night, it really makes people tremble with fear." ”
Wu Wenqing stopped talking, but just turned his face and didn't look at her.
When Cheng Yue finished taking a shower and changed his clothes and came down from the hug, Wu Wenlan was about to leave, and when she saw Cheng Yue coming down, she said to Cheng Yue, "There is still something going on in S City, so I'm going to go back." ”
Cheng Yue didn't speak, just stared at her for a long time, then only nodded, turned away and didn't look at her.
Wu Wenlan looked at him and opened her mouth to speak, but she didn't know what to say for a while, and she had to give up in the end after a while.
Cheng Yue didn't turn his head to look at her, and went directly to his grandmother's room again, he was worried that Mi Jia would not be able to sleep well.
