Chapter 1139 Starting Point and End Point
Chapter 1139 Starting Point and End Point (Second Monthly Ticket +)
Ye Shijie brought them to Li Hanxi's house.
This is a small courtyard building with three floors.
Compared to other places in the neighborhood, the area is smaller and the yard is negligible.
There wasn't even a sign at the door, only a cold "931" house number.
There were no funeral decorations in the yard, except that there were a few more people in plain clothes coming in and out than in other places.
There were two more guards at the door, and a hunched servant wearing a servant's uniform.
This man must be very old, but he still works here.
He checked the invitation card presented by Ye Shijie, bowed and said, "Mr. Ye, Mr. Song, Ms. Ping, Ms. Xia, please come this way."
He gestured to make way.
The two men in black standing guard at the door also moved to the side.
Ye Shijie took Xia Chujian and the others into the yard.
The small yard was paved with cement, and there were no lawns or flowers or trees that were common in this type of single-family house.
The four of them walked a few steps to the front of the small building.
There was only one step in the small building, and everyone quickly arrived at the living room on the first floor.
Only after entering did it feel a bit like a funeral, but not much.
The curtains in the room were changed to a simple and elegant ivory white.
There was a long table against the wall opposite the living room, on which was placed Li Fu's portrait.
There were two candles lit on both sides of the portrait, and in front of the portrait was an incense burner with a stick of incense stuck in it.
A woman in white stood quietly in front of the long table.
That incense looked like it was burned by her.
Xia Chujian carefully looked at the man's back and guessed that this person was Bai Cuiwei.
The man turned his head and looked at Ye Shijie and his group with surprise but not surprise.
This person is Bai Cuiwei.
Her gaze quickly passed Ye Shijie and fell on Xia Chumian, and then she looked at Song Mingqian and Sister Cai unnoticeably.
She nodded to Ye Shijie and said, "You are here."
"You are Afu's best friends. He must be very happy that you can come and see him off for the last time."
Ye Shijie said politely and officially, "Ms. Bai, Li Fu must be very happy that you can come and burn incense for him."
"Would you like to leave a hairpin for Li Fu to be buried with?"
According to the customs of the Beichen Empire, if an unmarried couple were to part due to death, the fiancée could bury one of her hairpins in the coffin of her fiancé as a token of companionship and to fulfill the unfinished bond between husband and wife.
This really means that Bai Cuiwei is regarded as Li Fu's widow.
Bai Cuiwei forced a smile and said, "Actually, my relationship with him is not what you think..."
This was not what she said last time she and Li Fu went to Xia Chujian's house.
This is the case where once someone leaves, they no longer acknowledge their responsibility.
Xia Chujian said calmly: "It doesn't matter what we think. What matters is what Li Fu thinks."
"He is no longer in this world, so his thoughts cannot be changed."
"Lady Bai, is that right?"
The dead cannot lie, the only ones who can lie are the living.
Xia Chujian was implying that Bai Cuiwei was lying.
A hint of resentment and embarrassment flashed in Bai Cuiwei's eyes.
She lowered her head quickly to hide the ruthlessness that suddenly emerged in her heart, and whispered, "He and I are not meant to be together, there is nothing I can do about it."
"I was also surprised by what happened that day... If I had arrived earlier, maybe I could have saved him."
Xia Chujian said: "Really? Is this really an accident? That's too much of a coincidence..."
Bai Cuiwei looked normal, but her eyes were a little red. She whispered, "This is the truth. If you don't believe me, I can't do anything about it. Goodbye."
She hurried out the door.
Li Fu's father, Li Hanxi, came out at this time and said earnestly, "Ms. Bai, why don't you sit for a while?"
"Li Min, come and see Lady Bai off!"
A man who looked about 60% like Li Fu also walked out of the living room next to the living room and said with a smile: "Lady Bai, I'll take you out!"
Xia Chujian looked at this man, then looked at Li Hanxi's face, and thought to himself, it turns out that Li Fu and his father really look alike.
So this half-brother of my father looks similar to Li Fu.
They are all very tall, with rugged and very masculine faces.
However, although Li Fu's younger brother is also tall, he is not as strong and sturdy as Li Fu.
Just tall and thin.
But when he chased her to the door, Bai Cuiwei waved her hand as if to shoo away a fly and said impatiently, "I have something else to do. You don't have to see me off."
She almost stepped out of the yard and came outside.
A flying vehicle appeared in mid-air.
Bai Cuiwei flew into the air and entered the aircraft.
Then the aircraft entered stealth mode and flew away with a whoosh.
Xia Chujian saw it through the window of Li Hanxi's living room and felt a little confused.
How could Bai Cuiwei’s aircraft fly over the Li’s residential area?
Didn’t Ye Shijie say that this is a no-fly zone?
Not only is flying prohibited, but outside aircraft are not even allowed to park within the Li District.
Could it be that the Bai family, from which Bai Cuiwei came, was so powerful that even the Li family was afraid of it? But think about it again, the Li family is the Li family, and Li Fu's father, Li Hanxi, is not from any main branch of the Li family.
It is only because of the close relationship between his ancestors four generations ago and the main line of the Li family that he can live here and enjoy the title of nobility.
Li Fu's generation is already the fifth generation.
When it comes to Li Fu's next generation, they will have no relationship with the Li family at all. They must move out of the Li family's ancestral home and no longer enjoy noble titles and identities. They will be just ordinary citizens.
But in the Beichen Empire, the identity of a citizen is also the identity that hundreds of billions of civilians dream of.
There is no way. The starting point for others after their downgrade is already your end point.
What hope is there in days like this?
Xia Chujian sighed and said nothing.
She stood at the end of the line, behind Sister Cai, and burned incense for Li Fu.
There are already five incense sticks in the incense burner in front of Li Fu's portrait.
On behalf of the team, Ye Shijie presented Li Hanxi with his team's gift.
It is a deed to a cemetery.
The cemetery is not in a particularly good location, but it is not bad either. It is of medium price, and the advantage is that it is permanent.
As long as the Beichen Empire exists, someone will take care of Li Fu's tomb.
Just for such a small piece of cemetery, they spent 500,000 Beichen coins.
This is what the four of them put together.
Originally, Sister Cai suggested giving the money directly, but Song Mingqian suggested giving the cemetery directly, so that the money could be guaranteed to be used for Li Fu.
Sure enough, when Li Hanxi opened the red envelope and saw that it was a deed to a cemetery, his face froze for a moment.
But he recovered quickly and said with a smile: "That's great!"
"I have many children, and apart from the small trust fund in my family, I have no other income, so I don't have the money to buy a cemetery."
"I originally wanted to cremate him and scatter his ashes into the sea."
"Now that we have a cemetery, it will be convenient for us to pay tribute to him in the future."
Ye Shijie said, "I don't think anyone else will come to pay tribute to him. Why don't we take his coffin to the cemetery together?"
"Our team wants to shovel a handful of soil for his grave with our own hands."
Li Hanxi's face turned red and a swear word almost slipped out of his mouth.
This team is so sneaky!
How could he bury Li Fu in the cemetery...
He was just planning to resell the cemetery and make some extra cash!
He knew how expensive cemeteries in the imperial capital were!
Li Hanxi swallowed hard to keep the curse words from coming back, and said with a wry smile: "... this... I'm afraid it's too late..."
Ye Shijie said: "It's not too late. The four of us can carry the coffin for our teammates."
"Our aircraft is parked outside on the public helipad. We can just lift it over there, get on the aircraft, and then transport it to the cemetery."
Li Hanxi looked at Ye Shijie with his mouth open, as if he had not expected that there would be people who came to pay their respects and take the initiative to help carry the coffin to the burial!
While he was stunned, Ye Shijie had already taken the deed from his hand and said, "If you don't say anything, I will take it as your consent."
He looked back at his teammates and said, "Together?"
Song Mingqian, Sister Cai and Xia Chujian immediately said, "Together!"
Everyone in Li Hanxi's family was so shocked that they forgot to stop it.
I watched as Ye Shijie and the other three carried out Li Fu's thin coffin, which looked very cheap.
They left their home in Lihan Creek and walked along the path in Li's neighborhood.
Li Hanxi's family did live in the corner of the Li's block. Although they met several members of the Li's clan along the way, they just watched coldly and no one spoke.
Of course, no one stopped them.
Ye Shijie, Song Mingqian, Xia Chujian and Sister Cai quickly carried Li Fu's thin coffin into the team's aircraft.
The aircraft took off and flew towards the cemetery.
Soon, the aircraft stopped in front of the cemetery.
It was the four of them who carried Li Fu's coffin out and came to the cemetery they had bought.
The pit has already been dug there.
All we have to do is put Li Fu's coffin in and shovel the soil back in.
The person who was digging the soil before was a robot hired by Ye Shijie.
But now, it was the four of them who filled the soil back in, shovel by shovel.
This cemetery is really small, not much bigger than a coffin.
They quickly filled the soil back in, then sent a robot from the cemetery over to cover the top with stones and then erect a tombstone.
The four of them bought incense, paper money, flowers and some paper funeral supplies for the memorial service at the cemetery and burned them in front of Li Fu's tomb.
When everything was done, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
The four of them were busy for several hours and didn't even have lunch.
Of course, they had no appetite to eat.
After everything was done, Li Fu's tomb looked brand new.
Ye Shijie then explained: "I originally wanted to give the cemetery deed to Li Fu's father and let their family take care of it."
"But after seeing how their family members did things, I felt uneasy, so we just did it for them."
"I don't want them to just resell the cemetery we pooled our money to buy for Li Fu..."
Xia Chujian nodded and said, "Captain Ye is right! I think Li Fu's cheap father is capable of doing such a thing."
This is the second update, the monthly tickets for June are 300+.
There will be a new update at 05:00 in the evening!
