As soon as Bian Yuanzhi walked closer, tears streamed down his face. He subconsciously knelt on the ground and sobbed, but he tried his best to suppress his voice.
Gu Yundong led Madam Yang to the side, leaving him to talk to Bian Mulan in private.
“Sister, I’m here to see you.”
“Don’t worry, I’m doing very well now. Although Grandpa and Second Uncle don’t like me, you’re right. We still have First Uncle and Fourth Uncle. I’m going to First Uncle’s house now. My cousin said that they’re my family. In the future, I won’t be alone. I’ll live well.”
“I just miss you. If only Big Sis was here too.”
As he spoke, he couldn’t help but wipe his tears. “I haven’t found Father and Mother yet, but I know that they’re definitely still alive. I’ll definitely be able to see them.”
“We’re here today to move your grave. I’ll bring you along to First Uncle’s village. In the future, when we reunite with Father, Mother, First Uncle, and Fourth Uncle, you’ll be able to see us. You won’t be alone here. In the future, I’ll visit you every year.”
“Big Sis…” He finally broke down in tears. “Have a safe journey.”
He bent down and kowtowed heavily.
It had been half a year. His elder sister had been gone for half a year, but Bian Yuanzhi still felt as if it was yesterday. Now, when he thought of Bian Mulan’s voice and smile, he still felt as if his heart was being pricked by needles.
Such a good sister was gone just like that. She was so young and had never enjoyed life. She had never had a child and had died at the most beautiful age. Her parents had not even seen her for the last time.
Bian Yuanzhi pressed his forehead against the ground, but his heart was filled with bitterness. Finally, he couldn’t help but cry out loud. His childish voice was filled with reluctance and despair.
Madam Yang, who was not far away, could not help but lean on Gu Yundong’s shoulder and whimper.
Gu Yundong patted her soundlessly. After a long while, he walked forward and helped Bian Yuanzhi up, whose face was red from crying and he could barely breathe.
As soon as the little thing stood up, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground uncontrollably.
Shao Qingyuan came over to carry him down the mountain. After he left, Gu Yundong asked the villagers to help.
With a sound, “Lift the coffin…”
Bian Mulan finally left the wilderness and prepared to return to her roots.
Gu Yundong placed the cremated ashes into an urn and carefully wrapped them in cloth before handing them to Bian Yuanzhi.
Bian Yuanzhi hugged her tightly and cried for a while before thanking her solemnly with red eyes.
With Bian Mulan’s matter settled, Gu Yundong did not stay any longer. After bidding farewell to Stinky Egg and his family, she set off on her return journey.
After being away for so long, Gu Yundong was already eager to return home. She could not wait to see the two little fellows at home.
Madam Yang also missed them. She held the two puzzles that Gu Yundong had made for her tightly in her arms and was ambitiously waiting to teach the two children how to play when she got home.
Bian Yuanzhi, on the other hand, had been a little down for the past few days, but he gradually became nervous.
After all, he was going to a strange place. Even though he had good friends there, he still felt uneasy.
After leaving Stinky Egg’s village, they did not follow the original path and took a shortcut.
Finally, after more than half a month, they arrived at Fengkai County.
It was not even noon yet. If they were fast enough, they could return to Yongfu Village for lunch..
