It's just dawn.

In the yard, Zhang Jin was half-reclining on a lounge chair, holding Wen Minghua's hand in one hand and staring at her face without blinking.

The older the two of them got, the less they slept. In the summer, he and Wen Minghua would get up at around four in the morning almost every day.

Sometimes I take the elevator to the top of the building, sometimes I sit in the yard and wait for the rising sun every day.

It was the same today. He and Wen Minghua had been sitting here at 4:30, waiting for the sunrise and whispering a few words from time to time.

Until, when he spoke again, Wen Minghua had no response.

At that moment, he felt surprisingly calm, and the surroundings were so quiet that he could no longer hear the chirping of any insects or birds. Zhang Jin only had three words in his mind:

"wait for me!"

Manni wanted to do morning exercises and she was always the first person in the family to get up except Wen Minghua and Zhang Jin.

As she went downstairs, she was still thinking about what to cook for the two elderly people at home in the morning.

When she arrived at the living room, she immediately saw Wen Minghua and Zhang Jin sitting hand in hand in the yard. She moved her wrists and ankles and walked out, stepping forward gently.

"Mom, Dad, it's very wet outside. Can I help you into the house?"

"No, you go exercise, and your mother and I will lie down again."

Zhang Jin didn't even raise his eyelids, he just looked at Wen Minghua's face that had many wrinkles but was still fair.

Seeing that Manni wanted to step forward and touch Wen Minghua's hand, he quickly stopped her:

"Don't touch your mother, she finally fell asleep again."

Manni paused, and tears fell out of her eyes.

Ignoring Manni, Zhang Jin finally stood up unsteadily and approached Wen Minghua's recliner with unsteady steps.

It was a short two-step journey, but it was very difficult for him to walk.

Slowly squatting down, his trembling hands touched Wen Minghua's face:

"Minghua."

He didn't shed tears because he knew that Wen Minghua was still waiting for him and he had to see her off for the last time.

……

Wen Minghua's funeral was very simple, involving relatives, children and grandchildren at home.

This was Wen Minghua's request. She had made a will before. The company's shares and all the real estate in her name were divided into five parts and left to her five children. The cash and jewelry were given to Manni and Yang Man early. Equinox.

As for the cemetery, she didn't prepare it for herself at first, because she and Zhang Jin had already agreed that their ashes would be scattered into the sea.

Yang Manchun was still the first to object. Her reason was that without a cemetery, how could they worship her in the future?

"..."

Wen Minghua admitted that she had forgotten that she was not their biological mother. How could she not enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren?

"Then, put one of the clothes I wore in my early years in the cemetery."

Fortunately, when Wen Hehua passed away a few years ago, she helped her sort out her belongings, and also went back to the old yard to sort out her own things.

Although they have not lived in the old yard over the years, they still go back every year to clean it. After all, that is where Wen Minghua was reborn.

Yang Manchun wanted to say something more, but Manni stopped him:

"Listen to me."

She understood what Wen Minghua meant, so she not only did some ideological work with Yang Manchun, but also talked with the other three brothers about where Wen Minghua's clothes were buried.

Zhang Jin did not interrupt during the whole process. He only cared about Wen Minghua's decision.

Finally, when Wen Minghua was still in good health, with the consent of her five children, her and Zhang Jin's ashes were scattered into the sea.

Next to Yang Gensheng's grave, she was buried in her work clothes from her early years. As for why it is work clothes from the early years, needless to say, it must be because they were all worn by the original person.

When things got here, Zhang Xinlan quit again:

"You two have a good discussion. Your biological parents have a cemetery where you can pay homage. What about your stepfather?"

Have you been calling me Dad all these years in vain?

"I didn't agree with your marriage at the beginning, but now it's okay. No one will pay homage to you when you die, and you won't even find one in the cemetery."

"..."

The Yang Jianguo brothers were dumbfounded. They really didn't mean it. After all, they thought that even if their ashes were scattered into the sea, there would still be a cemetery.

Secretly, they hope that their biological parents can be buried together, but they also know that it is their stepfather who has been with their mother the longest.

So when Manni came to talk to them, they had already agreed to follow their mother's idea and accompany them to their father's ancestral grave, wearing their mother's work clothes.

Then, in the Zhang family's ancestral grave, the clothes that their mother is wearing will of course be found.

"..."

Therefore, Zhang Jin's words "I don't need anyone to worship me" were choked in his throat.

Zhang Jin actually doesn't mind if anyone pays homage after his death, because he already knows that there are outrageous things happening in this world that he has never thought of before.

He also hopes that when his ashes and Wen Minghua are scattered into the sea, the miracle he hopes for will happen.

However, he was moved by the fact that Yang Jianguo's brothers and sisters were willing to let their mother share the same cave with him after death.

……

Three days later, Wen Minghua's funeral was settled satisfactorily.

In the past three days, except for the day when Wen Minghua was buried, Zhang Jin didn't go anywhere. He only held her photo at home and kept thinking in his heart:

Minghua, walk slowly and be sure to wait for me!

Several younger children were sent to Zhang Jin by their parents and wanted to tease him out of the room, but Zhang Jin kicked them out.

"I want to have some quiet time with her."

The best decision he made in his life was to insist on marrying Wen Minghua despite Zhang Xinlan's objections.

It's incredible to think that two people at the same age could fall in love with each other like young people and couldn't wait to get married.

He stroked Wen Minghua's photo and recalled what Wen Minghua looked like when they first met.

At that time, she was not actually beautiful, and her skin was not as delicate and white as it had become, but the look of confidence in her eyes was something he had never seen in a woman nearly fifty years old.

It was also her confidence that attracted him, making his eyes stay on her longer and longer every time they met.

Then, like a young boy, he set his heart on her.

At that time, he was actually prepared not to be able to marry her in his life, because he knew that if he wanted to marry her, the children in her family would definitely oppose it.

And she would definitely care about the feelings of her children and would not agree to marry him.

This was indeed the case, especially Yang Manchun. She not only opposed it, but also had deep hostility towards him.

She also gave him an unexpected surprise and was willing to give him a status.

Yang Manchun didn't know who had persuaded him. Although he was reluctant, he still accepted him as his stepfather. On the night when he and their mother received the certificate, they and her other brothers and sisters changed their names to his father.

He was surprised, surprised and excited.
