The size of a thumb sat up straight and leaned his head on the seat.The uneasiness and distress I felt last night blurred at some point.

——Mom: [Ying, my uncle has passed away] 11:32

——Mom: [The funeral date is the 23rd, can you come over before dinner today?Have a meal together] 11:33

A few simple words made Zaiying's mood extremely bad.It's just equivalent to holding the family gathering in October every year in advance.It made no difference to him whether his uncles were alive or not.

The thought of going to meet the so-called "close relatives" made me irritable, but Zaiying still gave an affirmative reply.Immediately after lunch, take a shower, take off all the earrings, and change into clothes that won't be picked out.Then pack up the black formal clothes and the clothes that need to be worn within three days, contact lenses and other necessities, and it is already 2 o'clock when I leave home.

After starting the car, I called Shang Yu but it didn't work, because the phone was always on silent mode, and the chances of his call being answered were not high.

——Me: [Going back to my hometown and expecting a three-day funeral] 14:02

Send a message and go.

It took three hours to arrive, and the smell of the sea wafted from the slightly opened car window.Although this place is near the sea, it is far from romantic.The coastline is densely covered with black smoke from factories, and as soon as you arrive at this place, you will feel as heavy as if a stone is stuffed into it.

After checking in at the hotel reserved by my mother, I dropped off my luggage and went to her room. The family reunion last year was only 7 months ago.After knocking on the door a few times, I heard light footsteps, and the door was opened immediately, revealing a well-dressed child in the crack of the door, he opened the door for himself nervously

"Hello, Brother Zaiying!"

"Hello."

Jaeyoung entered the room directly past the boy who was bending over to greet him.I have the surname of Zhang, my mother is the surname of Shin, and the child is the surname of Bai. Just like the difference between different surnames, Zaiying can also feel the sense of distance between them.

Mom is wearing a see-through shirt over her shoulders and a black mermaid skirt, standing in front of the dressing table.It must be black, but the dress and makeup are as gorgeous as a bride.Zaiying sneered in his heart, whether this appearance was for mourning or celebration.

"Ying, are you here?"

She admired herself in the mirror for a while before turning to Jaeyoung. This beautiful appearance makes it hard to believe that she is a woman who will be 50 years old next year. Jaeyoung walked closer, and she observed for a while with scrutinizing eyes. He hugged him only after he was dressed, and tapped Jaeyoung's back a few times.

"My son is getting more and more handsome the longer he grows."

"What's the matter, uncle?"

"Stroke and heart paralysis, I usually lose my temper, I just knew it would happen."

Zaiying nodded and withdrew from her mother's arms. At this time, the half-child came running to her mother to hold her.The mother picked up the child and turned to the mirror to admire herself.

"What about your graduation? How's it going?"

"Same as I said before."

"Are you sure it's okay this time?"

"Oh."

"It's really chilling. Soo Hyuk has already gone to the Procuratorate Training Institute, and my sister is going to show off to me again. If I can graduate this time, I should go to the previous school to study abroad?"

"……Oh."

"Anyway, don't mention this to Grandpa."

It means to let him not give his relatives a chance to criticize.The mother tidied up her already perfect hairstyle and looked at the child in her arms, as if something had been stained on his face, then wiped the corner of the child's mouth and turned to Zaiying again.

"Ying, now that my brother is gone, there will be trouble at home again, right? I'm also acting like a baby to my grandfather this time to please him, and I don't know what will happen then."

Zaiying didn't answer, but felt a little bitter in his heart.Uncle is the successor of Grandpa's business, and he is also the heir who inherits the most from him.Now that he passed away, I am afraid that a bloody inheritance battle will inevitably be inevitable.

"Is pocket money enough?"

"Oh."

"Can't contact Hong? Are you still in Korea?"

"do not know."

Zaiying checked the phone, but still did not see Zhang Zaihong's message.After seeing Shang Yu replying, "Understood.", he put the phone back in his pocket.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go first."

"Okay. Go to the hospital to express your condolences, and don't be late after dinner at 7 o'clock."

Zaiying turned and walked out of the luxurious room, and the child's greeting sounded from behind, "Go slowly, Brother Zaiying!"

Zaiying didn't miss dinner time, he can be late for all appointments, except here.

The high white ceiling was adorned with crystal chandeliers, emitting a soft light, and the hall played classical music and brought together the worst people in the world.The people at the dining table who didn't say a word to each other stood up and ran towards him when they heard the old man coming. Father, your body is still so strong; grandpa, I miss you so much; why does father seem to be getting younger every day Well; Zaiying looked at the mother's child being picked up by the old man dully.

Grandpa is a handsome gentleman.The body is still strong and wearing a charcoal gray custom-made suit, every corner fits just right, black leather shoes reflect the light of the hall; high-end cuffs are gleaming like a watch showing off wealth, and the ring finger is still worn Wearing a ring, she never took it off even after her grandmother passed away; her gray hair is combed back meticulously, it is not easy to be so temperamental when she is over 70 years old.

He sat down at the huge dining table and surveyed the people around him.Men like to see blood-related offspring together.He looked with satisfaction at all the people present at the table (the mourner and the aunt, the husband of the mother who was on a business trip, and the two cousins ​​were excluded), and when he saw Zaiying, his sharp eyebrows curved mischievously. into an arc.

"Here comes the little one."

Zaiying walked towards him who stretched out his hand with a smile in his eyes. As soon as he got close, he could smell the mellow perfume and unique smoke that had remained unchanged since he was a child.Zaiying likes his smell. Compared with her mother, grandpa's hug is warmer, and Zaiying instantly feels like returning to her childhood.

"Yes, I'm back."

"miss you."

The man frankly expressed his feelings to Jae Young in a low voice.

"I miss you too."

Zaiying said sincerely.This man is his favorite person here, without him, it would be impossible for Jaeyoung to set foot in this place.When he returned to his seat again, the jealous eyes of the surrounding adults shot over.

When the food is served, I have to say some polite words. How can I die in my prime? The company has lost a general, and all the voices are inadvertent.Then after the main course was served, no one discussed the old man again. That hot-tempered, outspoken and greedy man was originally the enemy of everyone here.Even grandpa didn't like him very much.

On the table, the comparison of children and heirs soon began.This child is so amazing, the grandpa's three children's children were all brought to show, their eyes full of desire not to be compared.Among them, mother is the most hardworking.

"He should be like his grandfather, but he is smart. This time he entered the elite class, and he is also No.1 in the class."

"Well, yes. What's the baby's name?"

"Shengmin, you are too much, can you remember now?"

The grandfather, who emphasizes family and ethics, is more machismo, so he treats the married daughter as a splash, and doesn't care about blood relatives who are not Shin's.

"Ying, when are you going to study abroad?"

The only exception is Jaeyoung who took care of her younger daughter for a while because of her divorce.Because my grandfather felt that Jae Young was very similar to him, he had a preference for Jae Young since he was a child.When his mother remarried, Zaiying could not decide where to go, so he took Zaiying directly to his home for education, and developed a deep relationship.

"October."

"That's not much time left. My little one went to America and I wonder what you'll do."

As soon as grandpa said this explicit emotional expression, there were all kinds of coughing sounds all around. What will I really miss? Some unintentional compliments.As soon as grandpa left, the atmosphere at the dinner table changed immediately.

"Then what have you been doing lately?"

The aunt asked, crossing her legs.Her husband is a doctor, her daughter is also a doctor, her uncle is also a doctor, and her son is about to become a prosecutor.They are all vain and arrogant, and the cousin, who is full of luxury goods, echoed, "It is said that I was in the graduating class last year."

"There are still some things that are not over, and I have to stay for another semester."

The mother who asked him to keep this secret from Qian Ding Wan Wan had an ugly expression on her face.Jae-young is good at lying, but feels unnecessary here.

"So you're still a student now? Our Soohyuk has already gone to the training institute."

Aunt clicked her tongue.Insignificant attack, Zaiying has experienced this kind of chaos for many years and now he can't feel any blow.

"If Soo Hyuk also went to the army, he would still be a student by now."

"God, look, which kid is going to the army now?"

The little aunt fanned the flames, and her son was also unable to move freely because of his exemption from military service.Jaeyoung smiled back.

"At least more people get tuberculosis than people in their 20s. Ensheng got tuberculosis at that age and asked his grandfather what to do, which made him worry a lot."

Everyone at the dinner table was suddenly quiet.My aunt and aunt couldn't resist this counterattack. As "conservatives," the grandchildren of my grandfather would find crooked ways to evade their national defense obligations. This is obviously disgraceful.

"Zaiying, what are you doing now, are you still drawing cartoons on the wall all day?
