But unexpectedly, he was pulled into a separate room by his grandfather.
There are only my uncle, second aunt and third uncle here, all of whom are direct relatives.
"Someone from the village came today and said that burial is not allowed and that cremation must be done in the cemetery."
Grandpa Lin Xuan's words silenced everyone present.
Whether it is burial or cremation is a small matter, the key lies in the cemetery.
Uncle Lin Xuan was the first to ask, "Dad, how much is it?"
"I asked someone and found out that the cheapest one now costs 20 yuan."
"20 million!"
Everyone present was a little embarrassed as this was a huge number.
Even though their conditions are very good now, no one wants to pay the money.
Because for them, it is completely unnecessary to spend such a large amount of money on a dead person.
"Forget it, Dad. At worst, we can sneak up the mountain at night. They can't watch us 24 hours a day anyway." Lin Xuan's third uncle came up with a weird idea.
Lin Xuan's uncle immediately agreed: "Yes, Dad, Grandpa must also want to be buried, right?"
"Ha ha……"
In such an important occasion, Lin Xuan couldn't help but laugh, and it was a sarcastic laugh.
Chapter 160 A Different Lin Xuan
Lin Xuan's grandfather frowned: "What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at you, Uncle San. Your business is so big now. You're already a boss. You can't even take out 20 yuan. Are you reluctant to part with it?"
"And uncle, your family's vegetable greenhouse is doing pretty well now. Just now when we were chatting, you were saying that you can make hundreds of thousands a year. Why are you silent now?"
Lin Xuan's words obviously hurt the two of them.
Lin Xuan's uncle shouted, "Do you think making money is that easy? Do you think it's like drinking water and eating? Do my things have no cost?"
"That's right, what do you know, kid? That's 20 yuan, not 20 bucks!"
Seeing the atmosphere become so tense again, Lin Xuan's second aunt hurriedly said, "Although our family's conditions have not been good in the past two years, I will take out 20,000 yuan so that we can make up for what we need."
As a result, Lin Xuan's uncle was not happy, and said sarcastically: "Second sister, what do you mean by this? Do you think it's easy for us?"
"You know I'm in a difficult situation, and your brother-in-law broke his leg and can't get out of bed this year..."
"Alright, alright, who wants to listen to you complain? If you don't want to pay, just say so. If you don't, I won't pay either!"
Uncle Lin Xuan was even more straightforward and said that he was unwilling to pay the money.
Lin Xuan's grandfather ignored their quarrel and asked Lin Xuan: "Lin Xuan, your parents are gone, so it is reasonable for you to pay for this money. How much do you plan to pay?"
"If uncle can tell me the month and date when my house was taken away, I will pay according to that number!"
“如果是1月1号我就出11万,如果是12月31号,那我就出1231万!”
Lin Xuan's words were like a bomb, burning them to a crisp.
"Nonsense!" Lin Xuan's grandfather shouted, "Do you think this is a joke? Besides, that happened a long time ago, and you are still talking about it here!"
"It seems like you all don't remember it. That's such a pity."
Lin Xuan shook his head, and then like a magic trick, he produced a large pile of money and placed it in front of them.
This was what he had just redeemed from the system mall.
"Second aunt, take this money. Apart from the 20 yuan for the cemetery, the rest will be my gift to you."
Lin Xuan pursed his lips and said with a complicated look: "I won't be back in the future. If you have any difficulties, you can come to Jiangcheng to find me."
After saying that, Lin Xuan pushed the door and left.
It wasn't until Lin Xuan left that the others reacted.
Judging from the amount of money, it should be at least 100 million.
Although I don’t know where Lin Xuan got it from, if it is real currency, it is not a small amount!
"Let's go."
Walking into the yard, Lin Xuan didn't say anything extra, just told them that he was leaving.
"Let's go, it's boring here anyway, and the internet is not very good!" Funina had wanted to walk for a long time.
Lin Xuan, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped, as if he thought of something.
"Before you leave, please accompany me to one more place." Lin Xuan looked at the hills in the distance.
"Hey, we're going hiking!"
When Hu Tao found out that Lin Xuan was planning to go to that mountain, she immediately became interested.
After all, this is Hu Tao's job, and she often goes to the mountains to find clients.
This mountain is not very high, it can't even be considered a mountain.
To people living deep in the mountains, this is simply a bumpkin.
When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Lin Xuan looked up and was stunned for a moment.
Funina was just about to climb to the top of the mountain, but she saw Lin Xuan stopped.
"What's the matter, Lin Xuan? Are you tired?"
"No." Lin Xuan shook his head, "It's just that in my memory this mountain is very high and big, I didn't expect it to look so small now."
"Oh." I know how you feel. Hu Tao has experienced it very well. "I thought the same thing when my grandfather took me up the mountain. But later when I went up the mountain again, it was just like walking on the main road, hehe!"
After expressing his emotion, Lin Xuan planned to go up the mountain again, but at this time a person came down from the mountain.
This is a woman who doesn't look very old, but she is carrying a child on her back.
Judging from the basket in her hand, she seemed to be going up the mountain to pick some wild vegetables or something.
"Lin Xuan?" The other party was stunned after seeing Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan was also very surprised and asked: "Tang Xiaoya?"
Of course he was surprised because this was his childhood playmate.
But in his memory, even if Tang Xiaoya could not be called beautiful and elegant, she was still pretty.
I remember when I was in elementary school, there were two classmates who liked her.
But the way it is now, there is nothing like it used to be.
Lin Xuan was a little dazed.
She was covered in dust and even looked a little embarrassed when she saw Lin Xuan.
Even if Lin Xuan's current clothes cannot be described as bright and beautiful, they are at least neat and clean.
Looking at Tang Xiaoya again, I wonder how long she has been wearing these clothes.
Even though he didn't know what had happened to the other party over the years, Lin Xuan could guess a thing or two.
The other party asked symbolically: "You came back to attend your great grandfather's funeral."
"Well, I just finished and was planning to go up the mountain to take a look."
"It's good to take a look. The village has changed a lot, but this mountain hasn't changed much."
After that, the two were silent for several seconds.
Then Tang Xiaoya said hello and went down the mountain.
"Hey, Lin Xuan, you look so weird today. You seem so depressed the whole time!"
Hu Tao waved her hands in front of Lin Xuan, trying to wake up the original Lin Xuan.
"Ah, it's inevitable that the scene brings back memories."
Lin Xuan shook his head, not hiding his thoughts.
Just like what Tang Xiaoya said, this mountain has not changed much and is almost the same as what she remembered.
This mountain was not as high or as far away as I remembered. It only took me ten minutes to reach the top.
"Wow, it's a little rabbit!"
As expected, Klee is someone who often runs to the mountains, and her eyesight is very good.
I saw the hare hiding behind a rock right away and I was determined to chase it.
Unfortunately, this hare was very alert. When it found someone approaching it, it fluttered its wings and ran away.
And Klee never got tired of it, chasing from one side of the mountain to the other.
It was not until we reached the top of the mountain that the hare completely disappeared.
When Lin Xuan reached the top of the mountain, he discovered that there were several windmills on the top of the mountain.
"Wow~"
The autumn wind blew over the hills and the windmills started turning.
Looking down from the mountain, the whole mountain is barren and withered.
"Hmm~ I didn't expect the scenery here to be so nice. At least the air is much better than in the city!"
Funina sat on a large rock, feeling the breeze and the fresh air.
Lin Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Yes, it tastes exactly the same as when I was a child. I really don't know whether I should miss it or not."
"Lin Xuan, what are you thinking about today? This is not like your usual self."
Funina tilted her head, really wanting to know what Lin Xuan was thinking at this moment.
Chapter 161 Embrace Yourself
Lin Xuan also sat on the stone and said slowly: "Do you ever feel very happy?"
“Klee has it!” Klee was the first to say, “When mom writes to Klee, she is very happy. When brother Albedo takes Klee to eat delicious food, Klee is also very happy. And more…”
There seem to be so many things that can make Klee happy that it’s impossible to list them all.
"Hmm~ If I want to talk about happy things, it must be when I eat dessert. Oh, and when I play Genshin Impact!"
Furninna thought about it and gave her own answer.
Hu Tao's answer was even simpler: "Ha, that must be when Wangsheng Hall has business. It's best if there are two or three orders together. It's so happy!"
For a moment, Lin Xuan didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Their answers are weirder than each other.
"What about you, Lin Xuan? You must have had some very happy moments when you asked this, right?" Funina asked back.
"Of course." Lin Xuan said without hesitation, "When I met you."
"Me?" Furninna pointed at herself.
Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, there are others as well. Anyway, I feel very happy every time."
"Hmm~ Maybe it's because I'm originally from Teyvat, so I don't really understand your feelings, but I can probably sense it from the reactions of other people."
Funina tried to find the same feeling as Lin Xuan, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't find a common ground.
Lin Xuan's hands kept waving in the air, as if trying to catch the wind flying around.
"It's actually very difficult for a person to figure out what he wants. I was also troubled by this before I met you guys."
“When I think about my childhood, it seems like it was a pretty good one.”
"I would run around naked in the village, and I would play hide-and-seek with my friends in the mountains. It was as if I was no different from anyone else."
"But I gradually discovered that people seem to be different. Some people are very happy, but some people just can't be happy at all."
"I even laughed at those classmates who said nothing all day, thinking that their lives were boring."
"It was not until my parents passed away that I realized that people's joys and sorrows cannot be shared."
