Chapter 3863: Seeing Grandma
ll stool beside her.After washing his hands, he took a drumstick and savored it.Bao Suyun kept glancing at Dabao, and the woman smiled with a face full of satisfaction.Yang Ruqing looked at the mother...That night, Lao Yang sent Yang Huazhong and Yang Huaming, along with other members of the old Yang family, back home. Old Man wanted to stay at Old Wang's house alone tonight.
We'll have Yang Huazhong and the others come over night after tomorrow.
Watching over the deceased should have been done by Old Wang's children and grandchildren.
Wang Shuanzi's body wasn't well to begin with, and Da Bai and Xiao Hei were young. After being frightened, they were sent to Yang Ruqing's house for care.
So that night, the responsibility of keeping vigil mainly fell on the daughter-in-law Yang Huamei and the sisters Wang Chunhua and Wang Cuifang.
Wang Chunhua and Wang Cuifua's husbands had previously come around for a while, but they still had to hurry home to look after their children. They would only be able to come over again the next day.
Old Yang felt sorry for his beloved daughter, so he decided to stay and keep Yang Huamei company.
At Yang Ruqing's place, at night, after Yang Ruqing had calmed down Daba and Xiaohēi, she let the two of them sleep on a big bed in the inner room.
She herself lay down with Luobo baby on the soft bed outside. It was late at night, and a gust of wind blew through the branches, making rustling sounds.
Listening to the even and long breaths of the three children in the room, Yang Ruqing couldn't fall asleep at all.
My mind is filled with the image of the rope marks on her neck.
In this rustic village, there's no circumstance where Chuanzi's mother would have been killed by someone out of spite. Judging from the position and depth of the ligature marks, Chuanzi's mother committed suicide.
This was going well, and then suddenly they committed suicide.
Everything happens for a reason, a trigger led her to this predicament. Sometimes suicide is just an impulse. Well, Old Wang's family must be hiding something.
>There will always be a reason for everything, but it's impossible to bring the dead back to life.

As I was sleeping soundly, I suddenly heard Dabai's cry from the inner room.
>
Yang Ruqing hurriedly got out of bed, not even bothering to put on her cotton-padded clothes, and rushed into the inner room.
"Hey, Big White! Where's Sister" she said as she came to the bedside.
Dali hid in the narrow gap between the bed corner and the wall, where a chamber pot was placed. It seemed Dali had gotten up to urinate.
"Big White" Yang Ruqing called him softly.
Dàbái rushed to Yang Ruqing's side, his whole body trembling.
"Grandma, I saw my grandma..." he whispered from hiding in Yang Ruohui's arms.
"You must have been sleepwalking. It's alright now." Yang Ruqing quickly soothed.
The big white shook his head vigorously: "Really, I got up to pee, and saw my grandma standing by the window watching me."
Yang Ruoqing gasped, turned her head to look at the window, which was securely shut.
This window isn't made of glass, you can't see outside unless you lift the whole thing up.
"Big Bai, you're really asleep! Look, the windows are closed tight, you can't see anything." Yang Ruqing said.
Dabi secretly raised his eyes and glanced towards the window, it was just as Yang Ruqing had said.
Da Bai stood straight, his face full of confusion.
Yang Ruoqing let go of him, walked to the table and brightened the lights a bit. She also poured a bowl of warm water for Dabai.
“Come, have some water and then go to sleep. Don't be afraid, the lights are on in the room, and I and the baby are sleeping outside. With so many of us in one room, it's quite lively!” said Yang Ruqing.
Dabai took a sip of water and stopped drinking. “Sister, I’m still scared, I don’t dare to sleep. I had a dream about my grandma earlier, it was so scary…”
Yang Ruqing gently stroked Dabai's head and said, "Don't be afraid, Dabai. That's your grandmother. She loved you and Xiaohei the most when she was alive."
Even after she passed away, she would only watch over you in the shadows, protect you, and wouldn't frighten you. You go to sleep now, if anything happens, just call me.
Dàbái lay back on the bed, and Yáng Ruòqíng returned to her soft cot.
In the shed, Dabai was the first eyewitness. This scene is estimated to become a shadow in this child's heart as he grows up.
The next morning, when the women from Changping Village went to the pond as usual, carrying their clothes and vegetables to wash, they found that the stage which had been bustling with activity the previous night was empty.
The members of the theatrical troupe all moved out overnight.

“These performers are so unprofessional! Didn’t they say they were going to perform here for five days They’ve only been here for two and now they’re leaving without even saying goodbye” complained Woman A.
Village woman B said: "You really don't think before you speak. The mother-in-law of the old Yang family has passed away, such a big funeral event, it's not suitable to perform opera. We can only say that the troupe leader is discerning and immediately moved out."
Villager A curled her lips and said, “Which village doesn’t have deaths People die every year, but we only get to watch operas during the Lunar New Year. Ah, this chance is gone just like that!”
Village woman B said: “You, you should be more modest. When people are alive, there's plenty of joy to be found everywhere! Once a person dies, that's when they truly have nothing left!”
Villager A said: "That makes sense. Let's go wash our clothes first, and then head over to Old Wang's place to pay respects at the funeral."
Villager B shook her head: "You're still keeping these words in your heart, aren't you If Old Wang's family and Old Yang's family hear them later, it won't be good. It's not right to say these things behind their backs!"
Yang Ruqing got up very early, cooked breakfast for her family and also persuaded Dabai and Xiaohui to eat.
After breakfast, Yang Ruqing held one of them in each hand and took them both to Lao Wang's house.
As the eldest grandson of the Wang family, I didn't have the young ones keep watch last night considering their age and fright.
But during the day, it is necessary to go to the spiritual hall to wear filial attire, burn paper, and pay respects.
Upon arriving at Lao Wang's house, I found Yang Huazhong and Yang Huaming brothers, Sun Shi, and Bao Suyun were all there.
Yang Huazhong's brothers helped Wang Hongquan with the funeral arrangements. The old woman, Chuanzi's mother, wasn't very old, only in her fifties.
Since she had always been in good health before, they hadn't prepared a coffin or anything like that.
At this moment, Yang Huazhong and the others are discussing buying a ready-made coffin from town and hiring a Taoist priest...
Sun and Bao were mainly accompanying Yang Huamei.
Seeing Yang Ruqing leading Dabai Xiaohui into the room, Yang Huamei quickly got up to greet them.
"Dàbái, xiǎohēi, yesterday night did you sleep well at your elder sister's house" Yang Huamei asked.
Little Black nodded, while Big White remained silent.
Yang Huamei noticed Dàbái's expression and was a little surprised. She asked again, but Dàbái still remained silent.
Yang Ruqing gently pulled Yang Huamei, signaling her not to ask first.
Yang Huamei gestured and turned to take two sets of mourning clothes, sewn overnight, over to Dabai and Xiaohui: "Go over there and change into them. After you're changed, come back so your grandma can burn paper money for you."
The two brothers took their clothes and obediently went into the next room to change.
Here, Yang Ruohqing pulled Yang Huamei aside and whispered about what happened last night when they went to the bathroom.

Yang Huamei was astonished after hearing this.

She grabbed Yang Ruqing's hand and said, "Ruqing, whether it was the white light that blinded him or something else, this matter is a bit strange. Fortunately, you were in the room, Auntie appreciates you!"
