curse

Chapter 55

Another month has passed, and deep winter has already taken over the city, but the snow that people are looking forward to has not yet fallen.Today is neither a weekend, nor Qingming and Winter Solstice, so there are not many people in the cemetery, and it seems deserted.This cemetery is located on the edge of a small river on the outskirts of the city, and there are many reeds by the river, but now the weather is very cold, and the reeds are all withered, a piece of withered yellow, weakly swaying with the wind, quietly waiting for the arrival of spring.

Bai Bi and Ye Xiao stood in front of a tomb. The name of Bai Bi's mother had been newly engraved on the marble tombstone, and there was another name beside it that had been silently kept here for more than ten years, that was Bai Zhengqiu.Today, Bai Bi just took out his mother's ashes from the funeral home. Accompanied by Ye Xiao, he came to his father's cemetery. At the beginning, this cemetery was chosen by his mother, and the stone slabs on the tomb were not sealed. His ashes can also be buried beside his father.A cemetery worker helped them open the stone slab on the tomb. Bai Bi saw that her father's urn was still sitting quietly inside. She took the urn out and carefully wiped it with a handkerchief. She held her father's ashes box, as if her father held her in his arms when she was a child.The ashes of his father have been lying here alone for more than ten years, and Bai Bi can feel the temperature of the box is bitingly cold. Now that his mother has finally come to accompany him, he can no longer be alone.

After wiping, Bai Bi put back his father's urn, and then put his mother's urn back in.After more than 10 years between Yin and Yang, they finally got together again and could meet in the same world. Bai Bi thought, maybe this is the reason why his mother wanted to commit suicide safely.

After putting it in place, the workers covered the stone slabs on the tomb again, and then applied cement to the gaps on the four sides until there was no gap left, just like the last nail in a coffin.The tomb was finally sealed and could never be opened, and no one could disturb their peaceful sleep anymore.

Bai Bi nodded, put a bouquet of flowers in front of the tombstone, and quietly looked at the portraits of his parents embedded on the tombstone.

After more than ten minutes like this, Bai Bi suddenly turned to Ye Xiao and said, "Thank you for coming with me."

"It's nothing, I just have a rest today." Ye Xiao lost a lot of weight these days.

"Do you know why I asked you to come with me?" she asked softly.

"What do you say?"

Bai Bi looked into his eyes and said, "Because, I have something to tell you."

"Go ahead."

Bai Bi paused for a while, looked into his eyes silently, and then said lightly——

"Let's get married."

Ye Xiao was very surprised, as if he had been hit in the heart by a bullet, his body shook a few times, a gust of wind suddenly brushed his hair, in a trance, he didn't know how to answer.

"Ye Xiao, look into my eyes. Let's get married." She raised her voice and said it again.

But he didn't look into Bai Bi's eyes, but turned his eyes to the two photos on the tombstone. Bai Zhengqiu and his wife were looking at him quietly in the portraits, as if they were giving him some kind of responsibility.Only then did Ye Xiao understand that Bai Bi wanted him to make a decision in front of her deceased father and mother, so she asked him to accompany her to the cemetery.He couldn't say anything, his lips were a little purple from the cold, almost numb.His gaze fell behind Bai Bi again, the dry reeds by the river on the edge of the cemetery continued to sway with the wind, and this place seemed to be another world.Finally, he finally fixed his eyes on Bai Bi, vaguely felt that those eyes seemed familiar.

A gust of westerly wind whizzed by, and Lan Yue's smile suddenly appeared in front of his eyes inexplicably.
