Chapter Twenty-Three

Qingkong squatted alone in the corner of the garden and kept drawing circles on the soil with dry branches. The adults no longer cried, and the children naturally stopped howling.

They don't quite understand the meaning of death, except Tong'er.

At least that's the case for Qingkong. She still doesn't understand what death means, and she doesn't know what the end of life means. She only heard her mother say that her uncle went to heaven, and he would live a very happy life there, but they would be reluctant to part with him.

Uncle, that's why she cried. But Qingkong felt that if she cried, her uncle would be reluctant to leave, so she quickly stopped her tears, looking forward to her uncle from the bottom of her heart, and hoping that her uncle could live happily in heaven.

My elder sister was very sensible and stayed with her mother. Qingkong just wanted to squat in the yard alone, look at the sky in a daze and count the ants on the ground. She didn't want to let herself fall into such a sad atmosphere, and her eyes would get wet when she cried.

It became so uncomfortable, and she didn't want that.

"Pa—" The branch in his hand suddenly broke. Qingkong stared blankly at the half-cut branch in his hand, feeling a touch of sadness in his heart... [

"Change one, here." A branch that was thicker and seemed to have been broken off from a fresh branch was suddenly handed to Qingkong. Qingkong looked up and saw that it was his uncle?

Qingkong reached out and took it, and Kazuyu knelt down opposite her and looked at her.

"Uncle... why did you think the branch broke just now? And this one looks so tough." Qingkong's mood finally improved. Her uncle was dragged away by her grandmother to talk, so she thought it would take a long time for her uncle to come to her.

Woolen cloth.

Kazuha tilted his head, thinking of what he had read in a book, and slowly said to Qingkong: "The dead branches have lost their lives, while the new trunks carry fresh life, so their strengths are different.

"

"Wow..." Qingkong opened her eyes wide in surprise, staring at her uncle with admiration and said, "Uncle, you are so smart."

Kazuyu blushed shyly when he was praised. He lowered his head and reached out to take Qingkong's little hand, stood up and said, "I'll take you to play in the back."

"Yeah. I want to see the carp. I want to feed them rice balls." Qingkong stood up obediently, and then let Kazuha hold her hand and walk.

Kazuyu looked back at Qingkong and smiled warmly: "I'll get it for you."

Qingkong's mood finally changed from melancholy mixed with a touch of sadness... Life is always so warm because of my uncle.

*

On the day of my uncle's funeral, the weather was extremely gloomy. In the clear sky, I was wearing a black skirt, a black down jacket, black socks, black boots, a black hat and a black scarf, but I still felt cold.

Countless people stood in front of my uncle's tombstone. The uncontrollable cries of sister Chun'er and brother Yuchen could be heard. Qingkong let sister Tonger hold her in a daze, and her mother's thin shoulders were shaking gently.

, Dad hugged Mom from behind, but Qingkong still felt the inexplicable sadness... They were both crying.

Qingkong looked up at the sky, and something cold and light suddenly fell from the hazy sky. Qingkong stretched out his hand and "touched" it. It was snow, which had melted on his fingertips.

"Sister," Qingkong gently took Tong'er's hand and looked at her and said quietly, "It's snowing."

Tong'er also raised her head, and light snow fell on her cheeks. It was icy and cool. It was indeed snow, the first snow this winter.

"Yeah, it's snowing..."

Baiyang Town, which rarely snows, actually snowed on this day.

Uncle Grandpa left Tong'er and the others forever, and his last words were conveyed by Uncle Grandma. They were just to let them, the younger generation, live a good life and not feel pain because of his departure. That was what Grandpa Uncle said.

The last words, don't feel pain for him.

But these words only made my father, mother, sisters and brothers even more sad. My father, who had never shed tears before, also had red eyes. Qingkong was also infected and lay in his arms uncomfortably.[

Then came the reading of the will. Most of the uncle's property was left to brother Yuchen who had already returned from school, and then a small part was left to sister Chun'er, and the remaining part was left to his great-grandson and great-grandson.

The granddaughter's will. This will has nothing to do with Qingkong or even her mother. It's just that "grandma" seems to be particularly sad. Because of the death of her uncle and grandfather, grandma seems to be haggard.

"My brother and I get together less and less. We have reunited over the years but have not spent much time together. I have always been in the UK. Now I feel regretful. I regret why I didn't come back to spend more time with him in the past two years...

Now that I think about never seeing him again, my heart aches..."

What grandma said while holding her mother's hand made Qingkong remember it in her heart. Could it be that they would never see their uncle and grandpa again? Didn't their uncle come back from heaven to see them? Qingkong didn't find out until a long time later.

, Death means never seeing each other again. But Qingkong didn't understand it at that time, so although she felt uncomfortable, she just secretly shed some tears and didn't dare to cry in front of her mother.

When we returned to Yunhai City, it was already ten days later, and the Gregorian New Year had opened a new chapter.

Shou Nuo and the twins were together and did not go back to Baiyang Town. They were all taken care of by Wei Nai. When they came back from Baiyang Town, Wei Nai took Shou Nuo home.

, seeing the sad grandma, as a good friend, Wei Nai Nai naturally went to comfort her. I don’t know if Wei Nai Nai is really powerful, so the two of them stayed in the room.

When she came out in the afternoon, grandma stopped crying and became much calmer.

However, even so, my mother was still a little worried, so she asked Grandpa Jason to go back to England to attend to official duties, and let grandma stay and live with them for a while until grandma felt completely calm before going back. Grandpa Jason

Although he was reluctant to leave his grandmother, he readily agreed for the sake of her mental health, and reluctantly returned to the UK.

Grandpa and grandma also called to ask. Because they were busy, they didn't come back to see grandpa off in time. But when they heard that grandpa left peacefully, grandpa and grandma didn't say anything anymore.

He also asked Qingkong and Tong'er to answer the phone and told them not to think so much and study hard. Everyone who is alive still has to live.

Shounuo felt abandoned because he didn't follow him back to the countryside. Even though his parents had been back for several days, he still felt depressed alone for a long time. It wasn't until his father took him for a walk that he came back.

Returned to normal.

Grandma just lived at home, but since it was the Gregorian New Year, it was time to plan to move to a new home. The villa in Henry Villa had been renovated three months ago, and my mother was gradually decorating the new home.

The furniture has been added, and the new house that has been vacant for three months can naturally be moved in before the Spring Festival. Grandma happened to be here, so in order to change everyone's mood, my father suggested that we move this Saturday and Sunday.

The most exciting thing about moving is probably the several children at home. They are all jumping around in excitement, including Tong'er, who also likes the new home very much. The most worried person besides Sister Zhang, Sister Liu and Aunt Wei is Mint.

Because there are really too many things at home. In the end, Yifan’s father kindly asked

Professional movers came and packed up the things in a few seconds and moved them there. It was just some scattered things that everyone needed to pack up and carry with them. The one with the most things was Qingkong, toys, books and so on, which belonged to her sister Tong.

Twice the number of children, and no one wanted to be left behind had to be moved away.

But when she was halfway through cleaning up, the little girl knew how hard it was. She lay on the ground unwilling to move, but Shounuo came in to make some trouble before she got up again, dragged Shounuo out, and then dragged her home

My uncle and sister came in to clean up for me, and it took two or three hours to pack everything.

The Zhan family's family motto is to pack your own things by yourself, so Qingkong can only rely on her uncle and sister who love her, because she knows that her mother will never help her.

Although moving was tiring, the freshness of the new home still ignited the passion of several children. They jumped up and down one by one to visit the layout and appearance of the new home. The decoration style of the new home was different from that of Sister Chuner and Aunt Luo.

Home is a little bit

The children's house has a luxurious European style, Sister Chun'er's house has a fresh pastoral style, and Qingkong's house has a pure Mediterranean style, with blue, green and white as the main tones. Such bright styles and colors are loved by all four children.

It was so amazing that everyone was jumping with excitement.

Because there are three similar villas occupying the surroundings of a lake, the garden was built without clear boundaries. The originally large single-family villa had no boundaries, so the garden seemed even bigger, like a

It is as gorgeous and lush as a large manor, surrounding a lake, but it is a world that cannot be entered by outsiders.

On the night after the move was completed, in order to celebrate the completion of the new home, the three families prepared a barbecue party by the lake, and naturally all relatives and friends were coming. This was the first time such a lively event happened after my uncle's death.

Even more, everyone gathered together because of the lively happy event.

The adults were having a barbecue and chatting below. Qingkong also took his good friend Xiaoxin upstairs to his room. The fresh and elegant Mediterranean style new house immediately made Xiaoxin envious and praised repeatedly: "Wow... Qingqing, yours is

The room is so beautiful, it’s completely different from your previous all-pink princess room.”

"Yes, yes, I like it too. Do you like it too? Then you can come to my house often and let's sleep together!"

"It's settled."

The two little girls reached an agreement hand in hand. Downstairs, Shou Nuo pestered his uncle to give him the Ultraman he had been waiting for for a long time, but his uncle insisted on giving it to Miao Miao, who did not move in the heroic world.

, this was a gift he received for winning a painting in school, so naturally he wanted to give it to the person he wanted to give it to the most, but even though Shou Nuo’s words dried up his saliva, his uncle still refused to nod.

Tutu was played by the flowers, while Tonger sat alone by the lake and leaned against the tree, admiring the night view around the new home. Her mood became leisurely and cheerful. The new home is like a new beginning, and she will always feel happy about it.

I am looking forward to many things...

"My mother said that she saw new neighbors moving in in the past two days, so she asked me to send some small gifts. We will all be neighbors in the future, and I hope to take care of them."

It seemed that an unexpected guest came to the house. The voice sounded familiar to Tong'er. Could it be that there was something wrong with his hearing? They had just moved to a new home. How could they know someone who was a neighbor? But thinking about Tong'er still made her

He got up from the ground and walked slowly toward the crowd, listening to his mother's polite words: "Thank you mother for me. She is so polite. I will visit you when I have time tomorrow. I haven't asked yet, which family are you from?

?"[

"Mrs. Zhan, you don't have to be so polite. Our home is right behind you, No. 407."

The closer they got, the more familiar the voice sounded to Tong'er. She stretched out her hand to push through the crowd and squeezed to the front to take a closer look. Tong'er was stunned.

This is not...

It was raining so I didn’t go out, so I updated it naturally, o(n_n)o~
