The bad news of the He family

"Qing'er, Xiao An refused to agree to the mourning hall we prepared for He Qingsong, and wanted to take the urn jar to his own room."

"No matter how much we try to persuade Xiaoduo and I, we can't persuade him. Why don't you go and talk about it?"

At night, Mrs. Sun quietly found Yang Ruoqing's place. When she talked about Xiao An's obsession with He Qingsong's ashes jar, she had to take it with her when eating and sleeping. Mrs. Sun's face was full of tangles.

Yang Ruoqing can completely understand Sun's dilemma.

No matter how grateful I am to He Qingsong, after all, everyone is dead, yin and yang are separated, and there are some things that should be paid attention to.

Not to mention that the two are good friends, even if a close family member like Mrs. Sun passed away, the rules that should be paid attention to are still observed.

"Mom, we all know Xiao An's character. He usually acts like a fool and doesn't care about anything, but in fact he has determined one thing, which is that even ten cows can't pull him back."

Take for example the time when Xiao An insisted not to go to school and insisted on joining the army...

Sun immediately thought of the same thing as Yang Ruoqing and went up.

"What's wrong with that? You can't sleep at night and keep the jar of He Qingsong's ashes in the house, right? That's so unlucky..." Sun murmured to herself, rubbing her apron back and forth with her hands, neither sitting nor walking

Neither.

Seeing the bitter and resentful look on my face, Yang Ruoqing was holding back some words that she dared not say.

From the moment Xiao An was discovered in Camellia Village until now, Xiao An has been inseparable from He Qingsong’s ashes jar. He always puts it next to his pillow when sleeping...

"Qing'er, how can we deal with this? Is there really nothing we can do?"

Sun's mind was at a loss, and after being anxious for a while, she could only continue to ask Yang Ruoqing for help.

"Mom, in fact, there are some things that you don't believe if you believe it or not. Isn't it just an urn? Keep it in the house."

"Ah?" Mrs. Sun was stunned.

Yang Ruoqing continued: "Xiao An will go to Qing'an County in two days. Let's just follow him for these two days!"

Sun had no choice but to sigh deeply.

"Come on, mother, I'll take you home."



Two days later, Xiao An returned to Qing'an County alone on horseback, carrying a bundle on his back containing the urn.

He wanted to send He Qingsong home with his own hands and hand him over to his parents.

Yang Huazhong, Sun, and Yang Ruoqing stood on the roadside, watching Xiao An's figure shrinking smaller and smaller in their sight. Sun wiped her tears and was extremely worried.

"Why doesn't Xiao An let us accompany him to He's house? His own injuries haven't even healed yet..."

"Xiao An won't let us accompany him. He must have his own arrangements and ideas. Let's just let him go." Yang Ruoqing said solemnly.

Yang Huazhong nodded silently, "Qingsong's family only has one son and a younger sister, and the family's conditions are not that good. Now that Qingsong, the mainstay, is gone, life will be difficult in the future."

"Last night I wanted to give money to Xiao An and ask him to give it to Qingsong and his parents. Although the money can't buy lives, it's still our intention at this point. But Xiao An doesn't want life or death. He said he won't let us get involved in this. I

No way."

Sun's face suddenly changed: "Are Qingsong's parents too sad and spreading their anger on our little An?"

It’s not surprising that Mrs. Sun has such worries, because this kind of thing has happened in eight villages in ten miles before.

A couple went to the river to wash their hands after work. The wife fell into the river, and the husband went to save her.

The wife was rescued, but when her husband was about to go ashore, his ankle suddenly cramped and he never got up again.

None of the parents-in-law, brother-in-law, and sister-in-law paid attention to the wife's pain of losing her husband, so they teamed up to beat her up and drove her back to her parents' home.

When people around her heard these things, some sympathized with the woman, some blamed her, and there were a hundred opinions out of every mouth.

But from the wife's perspective, she and her husband were childhood sweethearts and had three children.

When her husband is gone, her family is gone, and it is the wife who suffers the most.

Xiaoan and Qingsong are good brothers, but this friendship is there.

I hope...the He family's parents won't embarrass Xiao An.

Of course, even if there are a few words of complaint or a few slaps, Xiao An will probably endure it without any regrets, and there will be no dissatisfaction from the Yang family...

Qing'an County.

Qing'an County is a city on the riverside. Due to its geographical location, it has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

There is a tower in Qing'an County called Zhenfeng Tower. No one knows exactly when and who built the tower here. They only know that every county governor will repair this representative tower during his tenure.

Because it is said that there is a banished dragon in the Yangtze River that passes by Qing'an County.

The dragon was demoted here by the Jade Emperor because of a mistake in spreading rain in the heaven. The dragon was very unruly and tried to escape. If that happened, the Yangtze River would set off huge waves, submerging the entire city, and all living things within a hundred miles would be destroyed.

Suffer.

As a result, this Zhenfeng Tower appeared mysteriously.

Some people say that this tower is actually the tower in the hands of King Li Tian. It was placed on the river bank specifically to suppress the unruly sinful dragon and ensure peace in the area.

Because of these rich and colorful mythological effects, the incense of Zhenfeng Tower has always been very good.

With Zhenfeng Tower as the center point, this long street along the river is filled with various shops.

And He Family Morning Tea Shop is also one of them.

It's just that compared to those shops close to Zhenfeng Tower, He's morning tea shop is relatively far away. Even so, the rent is still 20 to 30% higher than that of similar shops in other places in Qing'an County.

He's father and mother couldn't afford the rent here. In the past, they just sold breakfast in the most inconspicuous corner of Qing'an County. The couple was honest and didn't have much ability. They just had to make ends meet.

Fortunately, he gave birth to a promising son, He Qingsong. When the family was in the most difficult time, he joined the army in exchange for money. He performed well in the army and was appreciated by Lord Ning Su and stayed with him.

He Qingsong also helped his family get this new shop floor.

Everyone on the street knew that the son of the He family had been transferred back to Qing'an County with Mr. Ning and was working as an errand in the Ministry of War. For more than a year, the threshold of the He family's morning tea shop was almost leveled by matchmakers.

The shop moved to the street of Zhenfeng Tower, and the number of customers increased and business was better than before. Sometimes He's father and his mother closed the door at night to take stock of the day's income. The couple were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.

The business is good, my son is back with me, and I have an enviable job.

From now on, the couple doesn't care about anything, they just focus on making money to save the betrothal gift for their son and the dowry for their daughter.

But just one year after this good life, bad news came.

It was broad daylight at this time, and other shops on the street were busy with customers, but white flags were hung at the door of He's shop. There was a cry in the shop. After hearing the news, relatives and friends of He's family came over, coming in and out, one by one.
