Parents are busy farming

Lu Zili's daughter-in-law is pregnant. Her first pregnancy is both new and worrying, and she needs more care and attention.

But these days, Lu Zili has been busy at Ye's house and doesn't have much time to spend with her.

His heart was filled with guilt and debt to his wife.

And Mrs. Lu Bai worked tirelessly and came to Ye's house to help whenever she had time.

At this moment, she and her two younger sisters were the only ones left at home. He thought to himself that he still had some time, so he should go back and have a meal with his wife to make up for the debt he had incurred these days.

He hurried home and saw his wife in the kitchen busy with dinner with her two sisters.

She looked slightly tired, but her face was still filled with a happy smile.

Lu Zili walked into the kitchen. When his two sisters saw him coming in, they smiled, said hello and ran out.

"The food is almost done, let's go see if Ziyi has finished his homework?"

Watching his two sisters run away, Lu Zili gently hugged his wife.

"Did you clean yourself up when you came back?"

When Lu Zili heard his wife's question, he quickly said: "Not only did I go to the hut, I also took a photo in front of your bronze mirror." (This is the custom here. They are afraid of bringing that thing back to the pregnant woman's belly. There is also no scientific basis for it being uncomfortable for young children.)

Lu Zili felt the person in his arms relaxing and said, "After tomorrow, I will have time to spend more time with you."

A hint of surprise and emotion flashed in the daughter-in-law's eyes. She held Lu Zili's hand tightly, expressing her thoughts and expectations.

After hugging her for a while, Lu Zili heard voices outside and quickly let go of his wife, helping her put the food in and take it out.

Outside, Lu Ziyi saw the dish in his brother's hand and quickly stepped forward to take it. Lu Zili smiled.

Now Lu Ziyi is the pride of Lu Zili.

Lu Zili sighed: This kid has been studying hard recently, and sometimes even he can't answer the questions asked.

He was pleased with Ziyi's efforts and growth, and at the same time hoped that he could do what he couldn't do.

Of course, he never said these words out loud, just because he was afraid of putting pressure on him.

Everyone in the yard left silently, leaving only Ye Zifen alone in the mourning hall.

She stared blankly at the empty room, which was filled with a sense of silence, as if time had stood still here.

In front of her, there was only a dead man who had no emotional ties with her, lying there quietly.

Her thoughts seemed to have been drained away, and her mind was blank, quietly waiting for the passage of time.

At this moment, any words seem redundant and any actions seem to have lost their meaning.

Yes, isn't that true in this life? Coming to this world naked, and leaving naked again, bringing nothing with you, taking nothing with you, it’s all in vain in the end.

Ye Zifen thought for a long time, and an answer gradually emerged in his mind: Maybe people come to this world just to cultivate their hearts.

In this complicated world, experiencing all kinds of joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows, is to sharpen your state of mind and make yourself stronger, more tolerant and kinder.

In the journey of life, we will encounter countless challenges and difficulties, and we will also have a lot of joy and happiness.

But whether it is good times or bad times, they are all opportunities to cultivate yourself.

Through continuous practice, we learn to face all kinds of life, learn to let go of the pain and resentment of the past, and learn to cherish everything in front of us.

Ultimately, when we leave this world, we can leave with a calmer, more peaceful heart.

This is the meaning of life and the value of our time in this world.

As for the person in front of her, her expression clearly still contained the turbidity of the world, and there was no otherworldliness that a practitioner should have, so she probably would continue to wallow in the six realms of reincarnation.

Time flowed slowly in silence. After an hour or half an hour, the faint sound of people talking could be heard outside.

Ye Zifen knew in her heart that people from the village were coming.

There will be a coffin tonight and many matters need to be discussed tomorrow, so everyone naturally has to get together.

However, she knew that now was not the time and she needed to wait until everyone was present before discussing matters.

However, just when Zifen was thinking about this, Zixuan's figure had already appeared in the mourning hall.

There was a hint of sadness in her eyes, as if she had lost the most important thing in her life.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Ziwei also walked in, followed by Ye Chengsi and Ye Zifang.

Seeing several children walking into the mourning hall, Ye Zifen felt sad. She took the initiative to move her position inside so that the children could sit at the door, where it was not so cold.

Soon, an elderly man from the village walked in with hobbling steps. He held a piece of paper in his hand, opened it tremblingly, lit it, and then began to cry bitterly.

Several of them also began to cry, until they watched the paper burn in the fire until it turned into ashes, and their crying gradually stopped.

The old man bowed, took two steps back, and walked out.

The men kneeling outside all kowtowed, stood up and bowed, thinking that today's delivery was completed.

Ye Zifen stood up slowly and walked out with a solemn expression.

Zhi Xuan also stood up. She is the oldest child in the family and should be involved in tomorrow's affairs.

It’s just that the family members seem to have become accustomed to it, with Ye Zifen making the decision in everything.

Therefore, everyone couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Zhi Xuan following him out.

However, they quickly took their minds back and returned to themselves.

Several people slowly walked outside. There was a hint of sadness on Ye Zifen's face. She took a small step forward and bowed slightly to salute.

Her tone was sincere and she said with gratitude: "Thank you for your hard work, uncles and brothers. There are not many people in our Ye family. Thank you all for coming to help despite your busy schedule."

One of them hurried forward, stretched out his hand to caress her gently, and responded quickly: "Miss Ye, if you are here, we are all from Lujia Village, so we should help each other."

Others also nodded in agreement, "That's right! The Ye family is in trouble, how can we just stand by and watch."

Upon seeing this, the Ye Zining brothers stepped forward together and bowed deeply to everyone.

They know that the enthusiasm and kindness of the villagers are not taken for granted, and they keep this gratitude in their hearts.

Afterwards, they sat down around several large tables that had been set up and began to discuss tomorrow's affairs.

Ye Zifen sat aside silently, saying nothing, but directly took out a fifty-tael banknote and placed it gently on the table.

This move moved everyone present. They understood that fifty taels of silver was not a small amount for a funeral in the village.
