in the river island

Halfway through the journey, Ye Min said that he felt flustered and wanted to vomit, so he stopped for a while and waited for Ye Min to rest before continuing to drive.

She swallowed the mints that Lu Zaihe gave her, and the car seemed to have a strong smell of mints. After a while, Ye Min suddenly said, "Xiaozhou, what about your father's body?"

When this question was mentioned, Yu Zhou looked back at her, and repeated what Lu Zaihe said to him last night on his mobile phone.

Ye Min is short-sighted, doesn't like to read the words on the phone screen, and can't understand sign language, so Yu Zhou broadcasts that passage by voice.

"Falling leaves return to their roots... How about cremating them on the spot?" Ye Min disagreed.

Yu Zhou was still about to type, but Lu Zaihe said, "The cost of transporting the body is very high, the distance is too long, and it may cost tens of thousands of yuan to transport the body. The transportation is priced by the kilometer, and the market price is generally around 30 yuan per kilometer. , Auntie, you can roughly calculate the price."

"If you have enough money on hand, you can choose to transport the remains. Auntie, can you afford the money?"

"Me?" As soon as money was mentioned, Ye Min's attitude changed, "I don't have any money, that stinky man came here and took away all his wealth!"

She talked fast for a while, and after she finished speaking, her eyes widened, she pinched her thighs, took a breath, and coughed, coughing several times, her face turned red.

Yu Zhou blinked, subconsciously looked at Lu Zaihe, unexpectedly Lu Zaihe also looked at him, both of them saw unspeakable emotions in each other's eyes.

Accompanied by Lu Zaihe, the three of them went to the morgue. Yu Zhou didn't look at Yu Guowen for the last time when he left last night. Yu Zhou always didn't know what attitude to take towards Yu Guowen.

When he entered the mortuary and saw Yu Guowen's pale body, Yu Zhou didn't show any emotion. He just stood quietly with his eyes fixed, like a straight tree.

On the contrary, Ye Min rushed to the bedside emotionally, weeping and wailing loudly, the doctor found out that she was an advanced pregnant woman, and hurriedly helped her up, telling Ye Min not to be too emotional.

Lu Zaihe's hand was pressed against Yu Zhou's back all the time, and the warm palm continued to radiate heat. After 10 minutes, the two left the morgue with Ye Min, whose mood had stabilized.

The body will be handed over to the funeral home, and the staff of the funeral home will ask how the body will be handled.

Yu Zhou didn't make a statement, but looked at Ye Min silently, waiting for her decision.

Ye Min sniffed, wiped away the wet tears on his face, and said, "Cremate it here, and we'll take the ashes back for burial."

When Yu Zhou heard what she said, a feeling of sadness suddenly surged in his heart. It was Yu Guowen who passed away.

Ye Min was determined in the car to return Yu Guowen's body to its roots, but changed his mind immediately after knowing the exact amount. Yu Zhou didn't know what the dead Yu Guowen would think, whether he also felt sad and difficult.

"Old Yu also knows our difficulties." Ye Min probably felt that he couldn't save face, so he added a sentence, which made Yu Zhou want to laugh for no reason.

Can Yu Guowen see the difficulties of others?

After the consensus was reached, the body was handed over to the funeral home, and the money for cremation had to be handed over. Several people went to the funeral home together, and chose the style of the urn. After confirming everything, Yu Zhou took out Yu Guowen's card. Zhang card, and asked: "This is Lao Yu's card!"

Yu Zhou nodded.

"Give it to me, do you know the password?"

Yu Zhou nodded again.

He didn't give Ye Min the bank card right away, which made Ye Min's complexion a bit ugly, but Ye Min couldn't say much in front of outsiders.After confirming the cremation process, the staff left. Ye Min wanted to wait for Lu Zaihe to leave before saying goodbye to Yu Zhou, but Lu Zaihe and Yu Zhou were like conjoined twins, and had no intention of separating at all. Ye Min held back all the way, Finally couldn't help it, said: "Xiaozhou, how much money is left in your father's card?"

Yu Zhou stared at the face of the card.

——More than 2

"Oh, so much money for medical treatment?"

As Ye Min said, he was going to get the card, "Xiaozhou, please take all your father's leftovers to me for safekeeping, I have to see what he left behind."

Yu Zhou pursed his lips and glanced at Ye Min.

Ye Min dragged his bulky body from the countryside to the city, and it seemed that he was not looking at Yu Guowen himself, but the money he had left.

——Aunt Ye, how many months are you pregnant?

Yu Zhou started to talk about homework as if chatting.

Ye Min didn't want to quarrel with Yu Zhou, so he endured patience and said, "It's been more than four months."

——Why didn’t you tell me then?

"You are so far away, it doesn't make sense to tell you, besides——"

—Are you afraid that I will stop you?

A mechanical voice interrupted Ye Min's words.

This scene was actually a bit funny, the weird voice was played, and the tone became a straight line without any waves, but Ye Min seemed to hear the emotional fluctuations from this sentence.

She looked at Yu Zhou in astonishment, and Yu Zhou also looked at her expressionlessly.

Ye Min has never seen such an expression on the face of this stepson. Facing himself and Yu Guowen, Yu Zhou is always obedient, quiet and obedient. Ever since he married Yu Guowen, Ye Min knew that Yu Zhou was It's easy to handle, he never refutes, and never sings a different tune.

Such a soft person seemed to have suddenly developed a temper, Ye Min found that Yu Zhou was different from before, he seemed no longer what he used to be.

Ye Min didn't know what changed Yu Zhou, but she didn't allow this kind of change. She said in a rough voice, "What are you talking about? This is such a happy event, what can I do to stop it? Don't you want a younger brother or sister? !"

Yu Zhou looked at Ye Min silently, his eyes peaceful like a lake.

——Are you capable of raising this child?

"What do you mean? What do you mean I can't afford it? Besides, aren't you a brother, you just picked yourself off? You—"

Yu Zhou laughed suddenly, his smile made Ye Min's words stop in his mouth.

Yu Zhou knew that he shouldn't have any expectations, but when Ye Min said it plainly, he still couldn't help but feel chilled.

what is heIs it an emotionless cash machine?Does he want to be a cow and a horse for this family all his life?

If this is an obligation that must be paid to be raised, then this obligation is too harsh.

When Yu Zhou was young, he always wanted to be an adult. He thought that he could have the life he wanted when he was an adult, but in fact he didn't. His life was still a mess and mess.

Why on earth does his life have to live like this, and why does he have to live like this.

——I won’t raise it, it has nothing to do with me

Yu Zhou's smile faded, he straightened his back, and told Ye Min straightforwardly.

——Whether the child is born or not, I will not pay a penny to support him

- Born is your choice, but he is not my burden

Ye Min's eyes froze, and suddenly, as if she had just understood the words, she became emotional, "You child, what nonsense are you talking about!"

She rushed in front of Yu Zhou with a stride, raised her palm high, and Lu Zaihe, who had been standing behind Yu Zhou's side, took a step forward to block Ye Min's hand.

Lu Zaihe understood why Yu Zhou was in a bad mood after hearing Yu Zhou's words. With such a father and such a stepmother, who could treat him calmly.

Changing his previous attitude, Ye Min asked loudly after being stopped: "Who are you! You take care of our family affairs, it's your turn to take care of it!"

"Oh, that's funny. Could it be that my son can't support me? I'm pregnant with the Yu family's seed!"

Lu Zaihe said: "The person in your stomach does have the obligation to support you, but Yu Zhou is different."

"How is he different! He's not all my son!" Ye Min yelled.

Lu Zaihe didn't care about her, but turned around and asked Yuzhou, "Xiaoyu, does she take the responsibility of raising her?"

Seeing Yu Zhou's incomprehensible expression, Lu Zaihe added: "It doesn't matter if you give money or take care of your life."

Yu Zhou looked at Lu Zaihe, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then shook his head slowly but surely.

Yu Guowen had always given him the money. When Yu Guowen couldn't count on it, his grandparents would help him occasionally, but it was very little. Ye Min never gave it to him, and she kept all the money by herself.

As for the care in life, there are even fewer. When Ye Min married, Yu Zhou was not young, and he didn't need others to take care of him at all in life. On the contrary, he would definitely take care of the chores of daily life when he was at home.

"Who said I didn't take care of it? I've been married for so many years, and I've done my best for the Yu family!"

"It doesn't matter what you say." Lu Zaihe interrupted her, "If the stepmother raises and educates the stepson, the stepson is obliged to support him, otherwise not."

"What you think of care and support depends on the law. If you think you have indeed assumed the responsibility of support, then let the court decide."

"What do you mean? What is the law or not? I'm his mother. It's only right for him to raise me!"

Lu Zaihe let go of her wrist and said, "I've said it before, what you said doesn't count. If you insist that Yu Zhou should raise you and the child in your womb, then the court will see you."
