After traveling through time, I led the whole village to become rich!

Zhang Hulan and Zhang Hujun went to the county town before dawn.

The rain had stopped at this time and the air was slightly cool.

Zhang Hulan was not as happy as she thought because of this cool feeling.

Birth, old age, sickness and death are truly inevitable for no one.

The coffin shop had ready-made coffins. After being told the approximate size, Zhang Hulan chose an ordinary coffin for one or two taels of silver.

Then he bought blue cloth, incense, candles, paper money and other items and hurried back to the village.

Zhang Hulan gave the blue cloth to Wang and Zhou, and asked them to make funeral clothes and shoes for He.

Zhao Guoliang and many villagers once again looked at Zhang Hulan with new eyes. Zhang Hulan and the He family were not related, but she had done so much for the He family.

Before her death, He specially invited Zhang Hulan to see her and then entrusted Shanzi to her, which fully demonstrated He's trust in Zhang Hulan and also showed Zhang Hulan's character.

Shanzi saw and remembered everything. He will always remember Aunt Lan's kindness to him.

With the help of Zhao Guoliang and the villagers, Shanzi doesn't have to worry about anything about He's funeral.

He sat alone in a corner, his legs bent, his hands on his knees, his chin resting on his hands.

Zhang Hulan walked over, sat down next to Shanzi, and whispered, "Are you really reluctant to leave your grandma?"

Shanzi hummed softly, then said, "Grandma is my only relative in the world, and now she's gone."

Zhang Hulan said, "Shanzi, your grandma has worked hard all her life, she deserves a good rest.

Your grandma will definitely marry into a good family in the future, so you won’t have to work so hard in your next life.

As for you, you are already a grown-up child, you must be strong. Otherwise, your grandma will be worried about you. She might even be worried about you and not want to be reincarnated.

Shanzi turned to look at Zhang Hulan, "Auntie Lan, can people really be reincarnated after death?"

Zhang Hulan smiled and nodded, "Sure."

"Then in my next life, can I still be my grandma's grandson? I still want to be reborn into my grandma's family."

Zhang Hulan smiled and said, "Then you must live well, otherwise you will die early. Your grandma is still a child herself, how can she be your grandma?"

Shanzi nodded, "Well, I will live well."

Zhang Hulan touched Shanzi's head and said, "After I send your grandma up the mountain, you can come live with me. You can live with us in our new home."

Shanzi stared at Zhang Hulan in amazement, "Auntie Lan, why are you so nice to me?"

"Because I don't have a son!" Zhang Hulan joked, "How about you become my godson and take care of me in my old age?"

Shanzi thought about it seriously, then nodded seriously, "Okay, I will take care of Aunt Lan until she dies."

"Then we have a deal!" Zhang Hulan smiled and rubbed Shanzi's head again. After standing up, she said, "Okay, don't be too sad. Smile. Let your grandma pass away peacefully."

Shanzi forced a smile and said, "Okay!"

Zhang Hulan went to help. She waved to Zhang Xinyao and her three sisters, "Xinyao, Xinyi, come here."

When the three sisters came forward, Zhang Hulan said, "Go and keep Shanzi company and talk to him more."

"Okay, mother!"

The three sisters then walked over to Shanzi and sat on either side of him. Zhang Xinyao sat on the left, while Zhang Xinyi and Zhang Xinyue sat on the right.

Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi didn't know how to comfort Shanzi, so Zhang Xinyue said, "Brother Shanzi, don't be sad. We will play with you in the future."

Shanzi smiled politely at the three sisters and said nothing.

Zhang Xinyue added, "Brother Shanzi, will you never see Grandma He again?"

When Shanzi heard what Zhang Xinyue said, he wanted to cry again.

Yes, he will never see grandma again.

Zhang Xinyao reached out from behind Shanzi and pulled Zhang Xinyue. Zhang Xinyue tilted her head to look at Zhang Xinyao, pouting and asking, "Sister, why are you pulling me?"

Zhang Xinyao was stunned, "Yueyue, why are you crying?"

Shanzi also looked at Zhang Xinyue, "What's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xinyi wiped Zhang Xinyue's tears with her sleeve and asked, "Yueyue, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xinyue pouted and said, "I don't want to grow up..."

Zhang Xinyao, Zhang Xinyi, and Shanzi all looked at Zhang Xinyue in confusion. Zhang Xinyao asked, "Yueyue, why don't you want to grow up?"

"When I grow up, Mom will die. I don't want to grow up... I don't want Mom to die..."

Uh……

"What are you talking about?" Zhang Xinyao patted Zhang Xinyue.

Zhang Xinyue continued with a pout, "When Brother Shanzi grows up, Grandma He will die. Then when I grow up, won't Mom die too?"

Zhang Xinyi pulled Zhang Xinyue's ear and asked, "What are you thinking about in your little head?"

Shanzi said, "Yueyue, everyone will die. But Aunt Lan is still so young, it's still a long time before she dies."

Shanzi thought for a moment, then gave Zhang Xinyue an analogy, "Think about it, when you grow up to be Aunt Lan's age, Aunt Lan will be almost as old as your grandmother. But your grandparents are still alive, so Aunt Lan will live a long time too."

Zhang Xinyue asked: "When will I grow up to be as big as my mother?"

"Then it's still early for you. There are still decades to go. There's a lot of time."

Zhang Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest and breathing out, "Huh..., that's good, then I'm relieved. When I grow to be as big as my mother, I won't grow any more."

Shanzi was amused by Zhang Xinyue, and then he envied her: "I really envy you for having such a good mother like Aunt Lan."

Zhang Xinyi said, "But you have Grandma He, and she treats you very well. But our grandma wasn't good to us. She even wanted to sell my eldest sister. It was because our grandma wanted to sell my eldest sister that my mother fought with them and brought us to my grandma's house."

Shanzi said, "Your grandma is too mean. Don't call her grandma anymore."

"We don't call her grandma." Zhang Xinyue said angrily, "Last time they came to grandma's house to snatch us away, but luckily we weren't snatched away."

The three sisters chatted with Shanzi, talking about their grandparents and what fun things they had done. With the three sisters chatting with him, Shanzi's mood was indeed much better, and he no longer kept thinking about his grandmother...

Wang and the others quickly made the funeral clothes and shoes, put them on He, and then carried her into the coffin.

The next day, He was sent to the mountain and buried together with Shanzi's grandfather.

Shanzi knelt in front of the grave for a long time. Zhang Hu stopped him but did not try to persuade him, and let Shanzi send He off for the last time.

Shanzi stayed in front of He's grave until mid-afternoon before leaving. Zhang Hulan and Zhang Xinyao stayed with him not far away.

Shanzi walked up to Zhang Hulan and called out softly, "Auntie Lan..."

Zhang Hulan smiled and nodded, "Let's go home."
