Woman 30: I regained my life after divorce

On Zhou Xinyao's side, although she was exhausted after a busy day, she still couldn't fall asleep for a long time while leaning on the bedside.

The light was always on and the smell of burning paper made her sleepless.

Hearing that there was still movement in the living room, Zhou Xinyao stood up and walked over cautiously.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

No matter how careful Zhou Xinyao was, Bai Yunchuan still woke up.

"It's okay, just go to sleep. I'll call you if something happens."

"Then I'm going to sleep~"

Bai Yunchuan threw himself on the bed and continued to sleep. This day, he was really busy from beginning to end with no time for leisure.

Zhou Xinyao gently closed the door and came to the living room.

Liang Shuying was sitting in a wheelchair, with a paper burning brazier in front of her feet, and she threw paper money into the brazier one by one.

Zhou Honghai was rummaging through boxes and cabinets, not knowing what he was looking for in a hurry, as if he wanted to turn the house upside down.

Zhou Xinyao felt a little sorry and came to Liang Shuying and said, "Mom, I'll burn it for a while. You should rest early and don't ruin your body."

Liang Shuying raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Xinyao, and said sadly: "Let me spend the last night with Tianlin. I will never see him again after tomorrow."

"Mom~"

Zhou Xinyao couldn't help but threw herself into Liang Shuying's arms and burst into tears.

Liang Shuying was already heartbroken. Infected by Zhou Xinyao's emotions, the mother and daughter hugged each other and burst into tears.

"Why are you crying! Don't cry!"

Zhou Honghai shouted in fear.

Zhou Xinyao didn't know why Zhou Honghai had such a bad attitude, but she stopped crying immediately.

Liang Shuying also quickly wiped her tears and choked with sobs.

Zhou Honghai sighed, carrying a linen bag containing unknown items, and walked towards the yard.

"Dad, what are you going to do?" Zhou Xinyao stood up and followed him out.

Zhou Honghai said without looking back: "I'm going to prepare things for tomorrow. You can stay at home and spend time with your mother."

Zhou Xinyao hesitated for a moment and replied: "Let Bai Yunchuan go with you, and I can help you."

"No need, I can do it myself."

Zhou Xinyao thought Zhou Honghai was talking politely, so she turned around and walked into the house.

"I'll call him right now."

"Come back!" Zhou Honghai shouted in a low voice with an eager tone.

Zhou Xinyao then turned around and looked at Zhou Honghai.

"dad……"

"You do as I say and don't let me worry about it anymore," Zhou Honghai said coldly.

Zhou Xinyao sighed and said worriedly: "Okay, then you should be careful."

"Hmm~"

Zhou Honghai replied in a low voice and walked outside quickly.

Zhou Xinyao then returned home, moved a stool and sat next to the brazier, burning paper one after another.

Liang Shuying stared at the table distractedly, mumbling something.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but Zhou Xinyao felt that her body was tight from fatigue, so she slowly straightened up and stretched her stiff waist.

At this time, Zhou Honghai opened the door and hurried in.

"dad……"

"You stay at home and spend time with your mother."

Zhou Honghai said, walking straight towards the tribute platform, holding the package in his arms and walking quickly out the door, his demeanor full of panic.

Seeing that the package was taken away, Liang Shuying also woke up from her grief.

"Tianlin, Tianlin~"

"do not Cry!"

Zhou Honghai scolded loudly.

Seeing Liang Shuying's eyes that were red from crying, Zhou Honghai's heart suddenly tightened.

"I'm sorry, Shuying~ I will take Tianlin to his grave right now. It would be wrong to let others see it after dawn~"

Liang Shuying has been married here for more than 30 years and knows the customs here. Those who died violently outside and received various punishments were not even allowed to enter the village.

Zhou Honghai knew this custom, so he planned to secretly bury Zhou Tianlin next to his ancestral grave while it was dark.

But Zhou Xinyao didn't know that there were such customs and rules in her family.

"I'm afraid you can't do it alone. Let Xinyao accompany you, just in case..."

Liang Shuying said with a sad face.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Zhou Honghai then turned around and left in a hurry.

Liang Shuying shouted to Zhou Xinyao: "Xinyao, stop standing there and help your dad."

"Oh, let me go and call Bai Yunchuan to join us."

Zhou Honghai heard the conversation between mother and daughter, and stopped and turned to look at them.

"No, just let him have a good rest."

"I'll call him up. There are more people and we have more strength." Zhou Xinyao turned around to enter the house.

"Why are you so disobedient? Come on! It will be dawn soon!" Zhou Honghai urged impatiently.

"Oh~ okay."

Zhou Xinyao came to Zhou Honghai melancholy and took the shovel off his shoulder.

"Dad, let me help you~"

Zhou Honghai handed the package to Zhou Xinyao, please hold Tian Lin. Although he once went astray and hurt you, but now everyone is gone, I hope you can forgive him.

Zhou Honghai was afraid that Zhou Xinyao would not forgive Zhou Tianlin, so he let her hold the package. It can be said that he had good intentions.

Zhou Xinyao sobbed: "Dad, don't worry, I have never blamed Tianlin. No matter what, he is my good brother."

"Hmm~ Okay, Okay~"

Zhou Honghai smiled reassuringly and walked quickly to the entrance of the village.

Zhou Xinyao followed closely behind. Although there was no verbal communication between them, they maintained a tacit understanding in their hearts.

The father and daughter walked through the village entrance and walked along the path to the hilltop not far away.

It was late autumn, and the weeds on both sides of the road were covered with dew.

The two people walked along the rugged path, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Before she had gone far, Zhou Xinyao felt that her trousers were already wet, and the cold dew penetrated into her skin, making her shiver uncontrollably.

"Is it cold? Can I give you my coat?" Zhou Honghai said with a bitter smile.

There was only a thin shirt underneath Zhou Honghai's not-so-thick coat, which was no thicker than what Zhou Xinyao wore. Along the way, the legs of his trousers and canvas rubber shoes had already been worn through.

Zhou Xinyao saw all this.

"Dad, I'm not cold, are you cold? Can I give you my coat?"

"I'm not cold, not at all," Zhou Honghai said with a naive smile.

"Let's go quickly. It won't be cold if we go faster."

The two people speeded up their pace in unison.

It was already past four o'clock, and there was already a hint of light in the sky, but the entire earth was still in a dark blur.

Zhou Xinyao glanced around a few times, feeling like she had seen him before, but she couldn't tell where it was. I only vaguely remember coming here with my parents when I was a child, but after so many years, those memories have long been mottled.

"It's here, it's here..."
