Shen Ji's tailor shop was deserted for several days, while Chen Xiang Yin was happy to finish the order in his hand.

The fabric for He Chongtian's clothes finally arrived.

Agarwood can’t wait to immerse herself in the fun of tailoring and sewing.

This outfit would be a work of art.

For several days, Pang Xianshun did not harass her, not even a harassing phone call.

When I was shopping for groceries, I passed by Fangyuan Tea House and saw that the door was closed and covered with dust.

It's a pity that this tea shop was actually quite good, but it fell victim to internal struggles.

Chen Xiangyin was a little curious, how did the old leader deal with Pang Xianshun?

It's like disappearing.

Is it possible to send him to forced withdrawal?

He Chongtian's clothes were in the final stage, and Chen Xiangyin stopped.

In the final adjustment stage, you need to change your mind before continuing.

Chen Xiangyin stretched and looked out the window into the darkness, wanting to eat steamed buns and see Du Hongqiu.

He Chongtian said that he wanted to invest and asked Chen Xiangyin not to have the idea of ​​​​Du Hongqiu's coffin book, but she knew that she trusted Du Hongqiu more.

Du Hongqiu's parents and grandparents, during the turbulent times, the family fled across the ocean to escape the war. After making endless money, they returned to their hometown to continue running the ancestral bun shop. The family was very rich.

When Chen Xiangyin first met Du Hongqiu, not long after he returned to China, he was so fascinated by Kun Opera that he stopped thinking about food and drinks.

His original intention was to leave his hometown to pursue his dream, but unfortunately his dream was no match for the wonder of youth.

After Chen Xiangyin left, he didn't go anywhere and stayed to open a bun shop.

I'm afraid that she will feel miserable if she can't eat her own steamed buns when she comes back.

Chen Xiangyin's life was too long and too miserable. It would be too miserable not to be able to eat steamed buns anymore.

Biluo Ancient Town West Street, four o'clock in the morning.

Du Hongqiu sang a song about the garden at the top of his lungs while wrapping the whole lion's head into the soft white dough.

Chen Xiang knocked on the door and entered the house. The two old friends chatted with each other, occasionally throwing in some dramatic lyrics.

In the empty streets of the ancient town, there is a unique and warm atmosphere of fireworks in the loneliness.

"Hongqiu, how much money does your family have left?" Chen Xiangyin asked directly without any foreshadowing.

The adopted daughter who was stirring the stuffing looked surprised and exited the room: "You guys chat, I'll go set up a stall outside."

After she went out, Du Hongqiu asked worriedly: "What kind of trouble did Sister Shen encounter?"

Chen Xiangyin informed him of his plan.

Du Hongqiu's expression relaxed, "So that's it. If Sister Shen wants to do some business, I will definitely support it! Not to mention dividends, 20 to 30 million is not a problem."

As Du Hongqiu spoke, he kept squeezing the buns quickly in his hands.

"It won't take that much." Chen Xiangyin waved his hand hurriedly.

Du Hongqiu said seriously: "Sister Shen, at my age, I don't need much money. The bun shop is left to my daughter, and she doesn't need any money. I'm afraid that she has too much money and won't be able to calm down. Give me this bun shop." Shut it down. So my money—"

"Hongqiu." Chen Xiangyin interrupted, her eyes filled with water, "Don't say such things, you know I can't listen."

She could spend Du Hongqiu's money and use his family wealth to do business with peace of mind, but she didn't want to hear Du Hongqiu explain his funeral affairs, like making a will.

She didn't dare think about Du Hongqiu's death.

No one can get used to the torture of life, separation and death. The more you experience it, the more you will not become numb, but will become more unbearable.

Especially those who are not qualified for reincarnation and are destined to have everyone around them fade into ashes.

Du Hongqiu knows that Agarwood leads to longevity, knows her birthday, knows where she comes from, where she has been, whose daughter she is, and knows that she often misses her relatives.

When he met her, she still thought of herself as a human being, still living her life with hope and expectation.

Chen Xiangyin knew in her heart that no one would understand her as well as Du Hongqiu. If others knew that she was still suffering from immortality, they would definitely scold her for being hypocritical.

She ran away after her 100th birthday. From then on, she no longer felt alive, but a lonely ghost.

She no longer communicates with others, no longer has new insights, and all her actions and thoughts are like the continuation of her previous self. Whether it's Gu Yunshi, Mao Ni, or even He Chongtian, they are all the same to her.

From the beginning, she was defined as a passer-by.

Taking them seriously, she couldn't talk to them, and she wouldn't tell them her secrets.

It's not that she considers herself aloof, but that she is exhausted mentally and physically and has lost her ability in this area.

Du Hongqiu is alive, and Chen Xiangyin is also alive.

When Du Hongqiu passes away, Chen Xiangyin will cease to exist. All that will survive is another person like Chen Xiangyin, imitating her words and deeds day after day.

He is the last and only.

Realizing that he had only seen Du Hongqiu once, Chen Xiangyin couldn't help but feel flustered and stayed in the store without leaving.

When the bun shop opened for business, Chen Xiangyin followed Du Hongqiu to help with packing.

Near noon, the steamed buns were sold out, so Du Hongqiu left a basket and had strong tea with Shen Xiangyin for lunch.

Chen Xiangyin flipped through his smartphone and took a bite of the bun: "Hongqiu, can this store do without you?"

Du Hongqiu: "If it works, my daughter's assistant store will remain open as usual."

Chen Xiangyin turned over his phone and showed it to him: "Well, let's call Gu Yunshi to help. Do you want to go? Next month, the Jiangnan Opera Festival."

Du Hongqiu put on his reading glasses and squinted his eyes to look at the advertising page on Chen Xiangyin's mobile phone.

At the Jiangnan Opera Festival, hundreds of famous performers gathered together for seven consecutive days of pear orchard feast...

Du Hongqiu's clear eyes were shining with pure light, "You, you want to take me there?!"

"Yeah." Chen Xiang said firmly.

Du Hongqiu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, his face glowed with energy, and his chest puffed up a bit.

"keep your word?"

Chen Xiangyin clearly saw the childlike sincerity in Du Hongqiu's face that had experienced more than ninety years of ups and downs.

"Forget it, I'll book the tickets now." Chen Xiangyin did a few operations on his phone, and then whispered carefully: "Hongqiu, you must take good care of your health, I will take you to many places."

Du Hongqiu's eyes turned red quickly, his eyes were moist, he pursed his lips tightly and nodded heavily.

He couldn't believe what he was seeing, and his blood pressure was rising.

Chen Xiangyin booked the ticket and put away her phone, "Would you like to go for a walk with me to Qingshan Park to soak up the sun after lunch break?"

Du Hongqiu was speechless for a long time, his joyful feeling was overwhelmed by another stronger emotion, extremely sad.

He understood again that Chen Xiangyin was afraid of losing him.

When he passes away, she will be so lonely.

She wants to cherish, keep, and feel.

He understood that he was the only person in the world who could make her feel real and prove that she was who she was.

Before the affirmative reply could be uttered, Chen Xiangyin's cell phone rang.

Chen Xiangyin frowned and answered, and He's voice came out from the receiver. There was a hint of excitement in the deep voice, "Why aren't you in the store?"

Chen Xiangyin: "What's the matter?"

He Chongtian: "It's a big deal. I'm in your store, come back and find me."

Chen Xiangyin was a little impatient: "What's the big deal?"

He Chongtian said: "I can't say now, I have to occupy you for one day."

Chen Xiangyin glanced at Du Hongqiu and said, "I don't have time today, let's wait another day."

He Chongtian paused, lowered his voice, and said solemnly: "Today is very important. Tell me what you have to say, and I will help you solve it."

Asked but not told what to do, Chen Xiangyin lost his patience and hung up the phone.

Du Hongqiu let out a long sigh, his eyes fell on his knees, and his old palms covered them and rubbed them.

"My rheumatic pain is so tight that I can't go to the park today."
