Xu Ning held Mr. Xu's hand, "Grandpa, I know that Aunt Wan Ning has helped us a lot, and I will definitely not let her spend money."

Xu Ning looked at Xu Wanning: "Aunt Wanning, let's change the amount of money in the agreement. I want to spend a sum of money to pay for grandpa's funeral. You can't let you pay for the funeral."

"It doesn't matter. Let's make a list of all the expenses for the funeral and record it in the account book afterwards. Old man, if you have anything else to explain, please tell me once and for all so that I can help you with it."

Mr. Xu shook his head with difficulty, "Help me... take care of Xiao Ning."

After confessing his last wish, Mr. Xu dropped his hand and completely lost his breath.

"Grandpa..." Xu Ning threw herself on Mr. Xu's body and cried bitterly.

Xu Wanning also felt her heart tightening, and even breathing became a little difficult.

Before she knew it, Lin An was standing beside her.

His big hand pressed Xu Wanning's head, letting her lean on his chest, "I'm here."

"I just feel sad. Someone I know suddenly has no vital signs."

This is not the first time Xu Wanning has died head-on. In her previous life, she also personally organized the funeral of her master.

But every time I face death, I feel helpless about fate and awe of life.

Xu Wanning stood blankly for a long time before slowly recovering.

She pulled Xu Ning up and said, "Let this uncle take you back to your aunt's house for a while, okay? Auntie will contact the funeral home now. After the funeral matters are settled, let your uncle take you back."

Xu Ning kept shaking his head: "Auntie, I want to stay with grandpa all the time. After today, I will never see grandpa again. I want to stay with him for a while."

"My grandpa once told me a story that the person who accompanied him the most before his death would be more likely to meet him in the next life. I want to be grandpa's grandson in my next life. No, in the next life, I will be the grandpa and let grandpa be his grandson. , I’ll take care of him. Grandpa’s life has been really hard.”

This was Xu Ning's wish, and Xu Wanning couldn't bear to take it away.

"Then you stay with Grandpa first, and Auntie will go find the funeral home now, okay?"

"Yeah!" Xu Ning nodded heavily, but his eyes never left his grandfather for a moment.

Xu Wanning looked at Lin An, "You stay here, I'm afraid that someone will come to make trouble later when they know the news of the old man's sudden death."

"Okay. Can you contact the funeral home alone? Do you want me to find someone to accompany you?"

"Don't worry, I can do it."

Xu Wanning knew that there was a funeral parlor on the street in front, with a one-stop service and very attentive services.

She first went to the subdistrict office and found the relevant leaders to explain Mr. Xu's situation.

"What is your relationship with their family? Why is it not his family but you, a stranger?"

Faced with the staff's aggressive questioning, Xu Wanning said neither humble nor overbearing: "My father and Mr. Xu have been friends for many years. It's just that my father is busy with work and can't leave his job for the time being, so he can only let me handle the funeral arrangements. Is there any law that stipulates that? Well, can’t people who are not related by blood handle the posthumous affairs?”

"That's not true. It's just that the grandfather and grandson are lonely and pitiful, and they have a house nearby, so all the best relatives in the family have come to make plans for a house. Once the old man left, only a six or seven-year-old child was left in the family. My little kid, you can’t do anything, so I don’t have to worry too much about it.”

"It's about the house. That's okay. Their family sold the house to me two months ago, and I still have the deed."

The staff quickly completed all the procedures, "According to regulations, the body must be sent away tonight and cannot stay overnight."

"understood."

With the procedures in hand, Xu Wanning went to the funeral home again.

After all the hard work, it was already afternoon.

No one has set foot in the Xu family, and it looks very lonely.

Therefore, Xu Wanning called her brothers and asked the men at home to help suppress the situation.

Xu Wanning rarely asked her brothers for help, so after receiving her call, everyone except Xu Maotuan, who was staying in the hospital, arrived.

Xu Maoran looked at the simple mourning hall and banners set up in the yard, frowning deeply, and asked Xu Wanning softly: "Aning, what is your relationship with the deceased?"

He knew that the younger sister came to their brother to ask for help, but he did not expect that they would be asked to attend the funeral of a stranger.

Xu Wanning also realized that this was not good, and said quickly: "Brother, Mr. Xu has helped me a lot, and the restaurant and courtyard were all bought at low prices from Mr. Xu."

Xu Maoran was silent again.

They have visited Xu Wanning's restaurant and courtyard house, and they are indeed good. When they first heard that Xu Wanning bought a restaurant and a courtyard house for less than [-] yuan, they all thought that Xu Wanning had been deceived. It was not until she took out the house deed and verified the authenticity that they had to believe it.

In this way, Xu Wanning did accept the old man's love.

Let’s put aside the prices of restaurants and courtyard houses for now. Given the current market conditions in Beijing, I’m afraid even those with money may not be able to buy such a good courtyard house.

The business of Xiaomei's Xujiapu Restaurant is so prosperous. In addition to her good management, the environment, size and location of the restaurant are all indispensable.

"And besides this grandson, the old man has no relatives in his family. Those so-called relatives are just wolves in sheep's clothing. If they come to attend the funeral, I'm afraid the yard will be torn to pieces. Xu Ning will be in the future I’m going to continue to live here.”

"Brother, I know that having you come to the funeral of a stranger will not have a good impact, but I really have no other choice. When I was young, the old man donated most of his fortune to win the war, but along the way he has also lost his fortune. It was very rough, and now that he has passed away, I just want to do what I can to the best of my ability."

But her own strength is really limited, so she can only bring her brother along.

Xu Maoran patted Xu Wanning on the shoulder: "You are doing the right thing. As brothers, we must support you with all our strength."

"There is a younger brother!" Xu Maoning stood at the back, shouting to make his presence felt.

"Then I'll go do other things first."

It is midsummer now, the weather is hot, and if the body is not disposed of as soon as possible, the smell of corpse will soon emit.

So after the funeral, taking advantage of nightfall, the people at the funeral home took Mr. Xu to the cemetery.

Xu Wanning wanted to go along, but was stopped by Lin An and her brothers.

"Aning, just guard this child. Don't go to the cemetery today."
