Chapter 373 Farewell
When the dumb girl came with her people, Ji Sijiu was leaning against the edge of the kang and sitting on the ground. When she saw her expression, the dumb girl immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.

Her expression now is exactly the same as when the disaster struck one night.

Afu immediately went up to hold the dumb girl's hand tightly, and said in a bewildered way: "Sister, I really can't help it, I don't know what to do."

Seeing that Afu looked like she was about to cry but had no tears, the dumb girl quickly persuaded, "It's okay, I'll come."

She stepped forward and squatted in front of Ji Sijiu and asked, "Miss, I brought the shroud, can I change it for Grandma Tao now?"

She clearly knew that Ji Sijiu's moment of sobriety can only be exchanged for serious business.

Ji Sijiu nodded, stood up and said, "I'll change it!"

The dumb girl didn't say much, and said, "Okay." Then she brought up the newly prepared shroud.

From taking off her clothes to wiping her body to putting on her shroud, Ji Sijiu did the whole process by herself. She didn't know how to repay Aunt Tao's love for her, so she could only do something at the last moment. Do what you can, so you can feel at ease.
-
Three days later.

She finished her grandma's funeral before returning to Ji's house.

Aunt Tao had no children. She dressed in sackcloth and filial piety to help her guard the spirit for three days, and personally helped her choose a graveyard. At the moment when the coffin was closed, she seemed to feel that Aunt Tao's body was smiling, as special and kind as before.

The dumb girl guarded her every step of the way, really afraid that something would happen, Ji Sijiu finally got out of the pain a little bit, this reminded her of the things she went through once again.

The corner of the dumb girl's mouth was blistered, and her voice became so hoarse that she couldn't speak.

Everyone in the Ji family knew about Grandma Tao. Many people came to the mourning hall to offer incense, and the villagers said that Grandma Tao was a very kind old man. He has never been bad at dealing with people, and he is a respected person.

The villagers' impression of Ji Sijiu has changed again for the Ji family's help with the funeral this time, and she also has a filial piety, which can be said to be affectionate and righteous.

The sadness in her heart could be seen in her eyes, she didn't use those gorgeous words at all, except for giving orders, she basically didn't speak for three days.

After returning home, she went to the soup room to take a bath, and told them not to disturb her, but to have a good sleep.

She covered herself in the quilt and burst into tears. The dumb girl listened quietly under the window of her bedroom and never left.

It was pouring rain outside in the middle of the night.

The dumb girl thought that she would probably sleep until the next morning, so she stayed in her room as well.

After a while, there was an eager knock on the door, and the dumb girl got up to open the door. Seeing Afu standing in the rain, she suddenly held her hand, "Sister dumb, go and see Miss!"

The dumb girl was startled, not knowing what happened, she hurriedly followed her into the rain.

She asked Afu, "What's going on?"

The heavy rain washed the two of them and they couldn't open their eyes. Afu replied loudly: "Miss is alone in the waterfall pool. I don't know why I am talking to myself. I am very emotional!"

"Why did she go to the waterfall pool in such a heavy rain?"

Afu wondered: "Dance."

"What? Why don't you stop it? You'll get sick!"

"Sister, I really can't stop it! Miss will go to the waterfall pool when she's in a bad mood, you don't know that."

The dumb girl sighed, and sped up her pace to the waterfall pool at home.
