Tomb robbing: The little girl from Erye's family said she wanted to be safe

Chapter 106 The funeral is over. Xie Yuchen is still a child. Even though he wants to stay in the shop for his grandfather and father, he cannot resist the deep sleepiness.

Yuyan looked at Jie Yuchen, whose face still had traces of tears, in the candlelight, and gently wiped his face with a handkerchief.

At six o'clock the next morning, the servant knocked on the door of the mourning hall.

"Master, Miss, there are guests waiting in the living room."

Yuyan lowered her eyes to look at Xie Yuchen who was still sleeping on her shoulder, and whispered, "I know."

After the servant left, Yuyan gently shook Jie Yuchen.

"It's time to wake up."

Xie Yuchen opened his eyes drowsily and responded.

After scooping up the water and pouring it on his face, Xie Yuchen became much more sober.

When Yuyan pushed open the door to urge Jie Yuchen, she found him standing in front of the sink, staring at himself in the mirror in a daze.

"what happened?"

Yuyan walked over, bent down and looked in the mirror according to Xie Yuchen's height.

Didn't you find anything else?

Xie Yuchen turned his head and looked at Yuyan, "I dreamed of grandpa and dad."

After hearing this, Yuyan's heart skipped a beat and she stood up and looked at Jie Yuchen.

"What did you dream about?"

Xie Yuchen didn't know why his aunt suddenly became so serious. He was stunned for a moment before telling her everything.

"Grandpa and Dad were smiling at me from a distance, telling me to grow up well. I wanted to catch up with them, but they were always so far away..."

As he spoke, Xie Yuchen lowered his head, feeling a little lost. Can't he hug his grandpa and dad even in his dreams?

Yuyan felt relieved after hearing this.

Because the dead have heavy negative energy, many deceased relatives want to come back to see their younger generations, but even patting their shoulders or touching their heads will pass the negative energy to their younger generations.

Many children become chronically ill or lose their souls because of this.

Fortunately, Mr. Jie Jiu still understood these taboos and refrained from contacting the child.

Yuyan comforted Xie Yuchen for a while and then took his people out.

After all, there are so many guests waiting outside.

As the two of them arrived in the living room, all the members of the Jie family stood up and bowed to Jie Yuchen or Yuyan beside him.

Not only was Xie Yuchen confused by this incident, but even the partners who came to attend the funeral today were shocked.

For a moment I didn't know whether we should stand and bow together.

Huo Xiangu, who was sitting on the sofa, represented the Huo family, while Wu Laogou came alone.

Qi Tiezui also came in person.

Because Chenpi and Jiumen didn't deal with it that way, Yuyan didn't force him to go.

Plus Zhang Rishan representing the Zhang family and Yuyan representing the Hong family.

The few families that are still surviving in the Nine Gates have finally arrived.

These people were sitting on the sofa observing the Xie family members. Although they turned their heads more towards Xie Yuchen, their eyes were always glancing at Yuyan.

Strange, didn’t Erya just arrive in Beijing yesterday?

After yesterday's baptism of collective bowing, Xie Yuchen can now make them stand up smoothly without Yuyan's prompting.

After the Xie family members got up, they each found a place to sit away from Yuyan.

Compared to yesterday, they were silent today and looked like they were really attending a funeral.

The partners who originally wanted to wait and see and make things difficult for the new head of the Jie family also gave up the idea at this time.

The subsequent funeral process went unexpectedly smoothly.

Yuyan stood beside Xie Yuchen holding a black umbrella, watching the two coffins being slowly lowered into the pit.

Because the host of the funeral had to shovel the soil to cover the coffin and pile it up to form a grave, Xie Yuchen's back looked even thinner.

The rain gradually began to fall, and the sound of the rain hitting the umbrella seemed to drown out all other sounds.

Xie Yuchen felt a ringing in his ears, and the whispering voices behind him became louder and louder in his ears.

The palms of my hands were already red from being rubbed by the shovel, and the faint stinging sensation must have been caused by blisters.

When he shoveled up another shovel of soil, Xie Yuchen's hand trembled obviously.

Yuyan frowned and held Xie Yuchen's hand, then forcefully pulled his hand in front of her.

After unfolding it, Yuyan took a deep breath.

The blisters are still healed, but this damn kid didn’t even tell me that the sawdust from the shovel handle had pricked his palm!

Yuyan carefully pulled out the thorns that were still visible on the surface, picked up the shovel and handed the umbrella to Jie Yuchen.

"You hold the umbrella for me, and I will do my part to show my filial piety."

Xie Yuchen mechanically took the umbrella and stared at the soil piling up bit by bit below.

It was not until the burial was complete and it was time to kowtow that Xie Yuchen came to his senses.

After kowtowed three times in front of each of the two graves, Yuyan took Xie Yuchen away.

Regardless of whether they were sincere or not, everyone who came, except those of great seniority, kowtowed to Master Jiu.

The funeral was almost over.

They don't need to participate in the rest of the mourning.

Yuyan gave the butler of the Li family a look, asking him to entertain the mourners well one last time.

Then he pulled Xie Yuchen back to the room.

Place his hand over a bowl of hot water.

Use water steam to soften the thorns in his hand that he had not picked out, and then use a sterilized cell clamp to carefully pick out the thorns that were stuck in Xie Yuchen's palm.

During the whole process, Xie Yuchen kept staring at Yuyan who was squatting in front of him.

Xie Yuchen didn't speak until Yuyan started packing her things.

"Aunt, I don't have a grandfather or a father anymore."

Yuyan, who was packing her things, paused, sighed, and sat next to Xie Yuchen.

No matter how strong he appears, he is still an eight-year-old child.

Yuyan looked into Xie Yuchen's eyes and said solemnly, "Until you can stand on your own and completely lead the Xie family, I will always be with you, okay?"

Xie Yuchen nodded. In fact, he wanted his aunt to stay with him all the time, but his aunt also had her own things to do.

What if...what if after I make this request, my aunt feels that I am a burden and hates her?

The child who had just experienced pain was the most sensitive. He carefully grabbed Yuyan's sleeve, hoping to grasp a bit of warmth.

At night, Yuyan stayed with Jie Yuchen while he slept.

After closing Lu Xun's "Morning Flowers Plucked at Dusk", Yuyan was just about to get up and turn off the floor lamp by the window when she found Xie Yuchen's hand pulling at her clothes.

Yuyan moved and found that Xie Yuchen's hands were clenched tighter and his brows were furrowed.

Scratching her head, Yuyan carefully turned over, not wanting to wake up Jie Yuchen, and touched the light switch with her foot.

Fortunately, my legs are long enough.

Yuyan adjusted her posture again, sat next to Xie Yuchen, and fell asleep leaning against the headboard.

When Xie Yuchen opened his eyes the next morning, the first thing he saw was the piece of clothes he was holding.

Looking up along the corner of her clothes, I saw my aunt sleeping against the head of the bed, with fatigue obvious on her face.

My aunt has hardly slept these days, and she stayed with me all night like this last night.

Xie Yuchen touched his nose feeling a little guilty and patted Yuyan gently.

"Auntie, lie down and sleep."
