Xu Junjun didn't know how she got through the day.

From the shock and grief of learning of Madam Huo's death, to rushing to the General's Mansion in a daze.

The Huo family father and son were in mourning, and all the Huo family members were crying in the house.

She was like an outsider, walking stiffly and woodenly into the dazzlingly white mourning hall, looking at the pitch-black coffin, kneeling on the ground, kowtowing and crying like a puppet.

She didn't know how long she knelt, she only knew that a pair of extremely strong arms helped her to sit outside the mourning hall.

Someone was talking to her, but she seemed not to hear clearly.

In the end, it was Nanny Li's crying that brought her back to her senses.

Nanny Li said that the old lady had left her something and asked her to go to the courtyard to take a look.

Xu Junjun picked up her pace and followed Nanny Li through the very familiar corridor, and she fell without noticing.

Xu Junjun didn't feel any pain, but she felt that her body was somewhat out of control. She got up irritably and continued to follow Nanny Li.

Yesterday, the courtyard was filled with laughter and joy between the old man and her, but today it is filled with only loneliness and coldness.

The rain was falling, Xu Junjun felt a little cold, and hugged her arms silently.

When they entered the room, Nanny Li asked her to sit down, and with red eyes, she took out a letter from the old lady's dressing table and handed it to her.

After giving the letter, Nanny Li wiped her tears and left the room, giving Xu Junjun some space to be alone.

Xu Junjun opened the letter, but her fingers had no strength.

After a long time of struggling, I finally opened the envelope and took out the letter.

The letter had the familiar bitter medicinal scent of Mrs. Huo. Xu Junjun carefully identified the contents of the letter.

"

Junjun, don't cry.

My grandmother often said that death is the final resting place for all, and it wasn’t just to comfort you.

Although my grandmother's life was not difficult, it was still quite hard.

It is a blessing to be free now.

Over the past few decades, my grandmother went from being a pampered young lady to the old lady of the Huo family who lost her husband and raised her only son alone. I won't go into all the hardships she went through, but I'm sure you can understand a little bit.

The road to the back house is not easy, and the road to the Huo Mansion is even more difficult.

Your grandfather died on the battlefield, and various forces are eyeing the Huo family covetously. The Huo family has gone from being on the verge of decline to standing firm today, all thanks to the hard work and suffering.

Although I have children and grandchildren around me now, I am still a sick and disabled person, suffering from illness.

My grandmother thought that the rest of her life would end in pain and suffering.

Unexpectedly, you showed up.

Junjun, you are the morning sun and raindrops, and the blessing of the Huo family.

A month after you came, grandma knew that you were not Mr. Xu.

Your intelligence, uniqueness, self-confidence and tenacity are qualities that no one in the Xu family possesses.

Grandma knew then that you were special.

Grandma doesn’t know where you come from, but she knows your purpose.

Watching you arguing clumsily yet cleverly with Ming'er and fighting with Chen Yue'er, grandma felt both amused and distressed.

When I saw you, I felt as if I saw myself when I was young and never gave up.

Grandma protects you and loves you. It is your sincere heart that touches Grandma.

But grandma really didn't expect that you, a child, would bring so much good news to the Huo family.

My life and Zhengfeng Yuner's life were all saved because of you.

Here, grandma wants to say thank you to you.

If there is reincarnation, grandma hopes that in the next life, we can be real grandparents.

Junjun, don’t be sad. Grandma will always be watching over you and accompanying you in heaven until your life is complete.

Grandma, the last word. "

Big tears fell on the letter paper, smudged the ink.

Xu Junjun huddled on the soft couch where she had laughed and talked happily with Old Madam Huo yesterday, hugging her knees and crying inconsolably.

She was immersed in her own world, crying so hard that her whole body was shaking and she had difficulty breathing.

Jiang Wumei and Jun Xiaochen stood outside the window, looking at Xu Junjun who was crying uncontrollably by the window, and their hearts felt heavy.

Jiang Wumei stood for a while and looked at the person beside her:

“Since Junjun has decided on you as her husband, go in and comfort her.

She seems strong, but she is actually very soft inside.

If someone gives her a kindness, she will return five.

When she was in the Huo Mansion, only Old Madam Huo treated her best.

She certainly couldn't accept the sudden passing of Mrs. Huo for a while.

When you go in, you don't have to say anything, just stay with her."

Jiang Wumei spoke in detail. Jun Xiaochen looked at her for the first time and said seriously:

"Thank you."

Jiang Wumei turned around:

"If you want to go back home, the carriage is outside the mansion."

Huo Zhengfeng and his wife already knew about her visit to the Huo Mansion. After seeing Junjun, she needed to show up at the mourning hall.

After Jiang Wumei left, Jun Xiaochen walked into the house.

Xu Junjun rested her head on her knees, hugged herself and continued crying hard.

She felt very insecure in this posture. Jun Xiaochen felt a stuffy pain in his chest and walked forward to gently stroke the top of her head.

Wrapped in Jun Xiaochen's unique ambergris scent, Xu Junjun belatedly looked up, revealing a face with red and swollen eyes.

"Jun Xiaochen."

Xu Junjun's voice was hoarse and trembling.

Jun Xiaochen lowered his head, his eyes focused:

"I'm here."

Perhaps it was because his voice was too gentle, or perhaps it was because his eyes were too kind, Xu Junjun's tears rolled down her cheeks, and she threw herself into his arms, hugging the man's thin waist tightly.

"The elder who loved me the most in this world is gone. From now on, I don't have a grandmother anymore."

Jun Xiaochen was wearing a white robe today, looking noble and cold. Xu Junjun hugged him, and her tears seeped through the brocade robe, leaving tear marks one after another.

Jun Xiaochen didn't care at all. He held Xu Junjun's shoulders and patted her back to comfort her:

"I know.

But don't be afraid, I will love you for her.

Jun'er, you can trust yourself to me.

I will always stand firmly behind you."

Xu Junjun bit her lips tightly, tears falling like broken strings.

Jun Xiaochen's eyes were filled with heartache and helplessness. He sat down beside her, hugged her in his arms, and let her vent her sadness silently.

It's good to cry.

Cry out all the sadness and reluctance, and the dull pain will not turn into an unrevealable scar in your heart as time goes by.

When everything is over, she will still be the Junjun who is as bright as the morning sun.

After coming out of Mrs. Huo's courtyard, Jiang Wumei went directly to the mourning hall to pay her respects.

As soon as she appeared, all the ministers who came to the Huo family to pay their respects were shocked and whispered to each other.

Only the Huo family father and son were the calmest. They stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and invited the person in.

Old Madam Huo had been ill for a long time, and the Huo family had made preparations in advance. When the old lady passed away, the mourning hall was decorated with great care.

As Jiang Wumei walked along the way, her evaluation of the Huo family father and son improved a lot.

Jiang Wumei went through the motions and had just started talking to Su Yun when a servant came running in breathlessly and asked Huo Zhengfeng and others to go out of the house to receive the order.

Huo Zhengfeng and his wife, Huo Qiming, and everyone in the Huo family went to the front hall to receive the imperial edict.

Jiang Wumei also went to listen to the imperial decree.

The Huo family father and son had just made military achievements for the Great Sage, and suffered this blow upon returning to the capital. As the emperor, Xiao Tong expressed deep regret, issued an imperial edict to express condolences, and bestowed rewards to appease the Huo family's pain.

Huo Zhengfeng led the entire Huo family to kowtow and express gratitude, shouting "Long live the emperor" three times.

After the imperial edict was read, Jiang Wumei said goodbye and left.

Huo Zhengfeng and his wife sent Jiang Wumei out of the mansion holding the imperial edict, and watched her get on the carriage before returning.

At this moment, in the backyard, Xu Junjun was tired of crying and fell asleep in Jun Xiaochen's arms.

The grief was too great and exhausted his mind. Jun Xiaochen lowered his eyes to look at the tears hanging on her eyelashes, bent down and kissed her between the eyebrows, picked her up horizontally and walked out of the yard.

The entire Huo Mansion was decorated in white, and white silk fluttered in the long corridor.

Jun Xiaochen walked into the corridor holding someone in his arms. When he turned a corner, he ran into Huo Qiming, who was dressed in mourning clothes.
