Chapter 1030 Middle-aged Women
The woman's brow twitched, and she was about to explode, "Xiao Zhao."

The man with black-framed glasses stopped her from exploding, "Call first."

"Mr. Xiao Xiao has his own reasons for asking you to do this."

The woman endured it, she knew that the other party must have a reason for asking her to do this.

But before asking someone to do something, can you make your words clear first?
It's really maddening to feel so confused.

The woman was about to dial the number with some anger.

The finger suddenly stopped on the number.

"."

Only when she was about to make the call did she realize a very important issue.

"that-"

The woman turned to look at Xiao Xiao and the man with black-framed glasses, her face full of confusion, "What should I say?"

You can't just ask people right away if they have any troubles at home as soon as the phone is connected, right?

No matter how you think about it, this is weird, right?
Maybe you will be suspected of having bad intentions.

If she suddenly received such a call, especially from someone she was not very familiar with, she would definitely be alert.

Thinking of this, her hand placed on the phone screen felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds and she couldn't press it at all.

The man with black-framed glasses frowned, unable to think of any good words for a moment.

He couldn't help but look at Mr. Xiao Xiao.

The woman turned her head and looked at Mr. Xiao Xiao almost at the same time as him.

Mr. Xiao Xiao asked her to make this call.

Then, the current dilemma should also be resolved by the other party.

"Mr. Xiao Xiao, you-"

"Hey, aren't you the girl who came to Rongrong's funeral the day before yesterday?"

A sudden voice interrupted the woman's next words.

Everyone looked at the sound.

She is a middle-aged woman in her forties, slightly plump.

She looked at Gu Xiaozhao in surprise, "Why are you here again?"

“It’s not easy to come in here.”

"Did something fall here?"

"No."

The woman subconsciously denied it, and then began to regret it.

People have already thought of a reason for her, why is she denying it?

"No, that one."

The woman pulled the corners of her mouth, revealing a smile that was a bit stiff and unnatural.

Her mind raced, trying to come up with a plausible reason for her being here.

"I asked her to bring me here."

Xiao Xiao's words made everyone look at him.

"Oh, it's a new face."

The middle-aged woman's eyes swept across Xiao Xiao's face, then looked at the man with black-framed glasses, "No, they are two unfamiliar faces."

"Hello, aunt."

Xiao Xiao smiled gently, "I am Rongrong's friend."

He had just heard this name from the person opposite him.

"I just learned about her death today, so I asked Gu Xiaozhao to bring me here to burn some incense for her."

"That's it."

The middle-aged woman suddenly realized, and then said with some emotion: "Rongrong has been a lovable child since she was young."

"There is a lot of potential."

"Who would have thought"

"Fortunately Rongrong has a younger brother, otherwise..."

"I wonder if the Zhang family can bear the loss of their loved ones?"

There was a hint of sympathy and sadness in the middle-aged woman's eyes.

"But the dead cannot be resurrected."

The middle-aged woman shook her head and said, "We should always look forward."

"The Zhang family has lost a daughter."

"But there is still a son."

"At least you won't be alone in your old age."

"That kid is still in school."

"I've been very naughty since I was a kid."

"But when I saw that kid the day before yesterday, he seemed like a completely different person."

"I've matured a lot all of a sudden."

"The Zhang family still has hope."

"They want to see that kid get married and start a family, and they want to have grandchildren."

The middle-aged woman was mumbling.

Xiao Xiao did not interrupt the other party, but listened quietly. "By the way, are you going to Lao Zhang's house?"

The middle-aged woman suddenly asked, "Little girl, do you still know the way?"

"I'll take you there."

"No, Auntie, we're not going."

Xiao Xiao's answer surprised the middle-aged woman.

Aren’t you going to Lao Zhang’s house?

"It's not a good time for a stranger like me to come visit you."

"And if we talk about Rongrong then, I'm afraid it will make the two elders sad."

"Are the two elders okay?"

"Is everything okay after the funeral?"

Xiao Xiao asked with concern.

"What a thoughtful child."

The middle-aged woman exclaimed in admiration, then sighed slightly, "That's all."

"Nothing."

"It will probably take quite some time to get over the shadow of Rongrong's death."

"But it's okay."

The middle-aged woman laughed, "Their boy has been accompanying them these days."

"They will recover slowly."

"It's only been a few days since I last heard it. I'm beginning to miss Old Zhang's loud voice."

"That's good."

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, "I'm glad they're okay."

"I shouldn't bother them at this time."

"I'll just go see Rongrong."

"Want me to lead the way?"

"The road to the cemetery on the mountain is not easy to walk."

Faced with the middle-aged woman's enthusiastic suggestion, Xiao Xiao declined on the grounds that Gu Xiaozhao knew the way and it would not be nice to trouble her.

The middle-aged woman did not insist. After chatting with Xiao Xiao for a few more words, she said goodbye to everyone.

Watching the middle-aged woman disappear at the end of the path, Xiao Xiao turned to look at the woman and said, "Let's go to your friend's grave."

".ah?"

The woman, who was confused throughout the whole process, and the man with black-framed glasses blinked and looked at each other.

Then, the woman responded slowly.

"Not going to my friend's house?"

The woman's voice was slightly raised.

She thought that Mr. Xiao Xiao's remarks just now were just a response to what the aunt said.

Is it true?

But wasn’t it Mr. Xiao Xiao who said at the beginning that they wanted to go to her friend’s house?

This is why they came here.

Why are you suddenly not going again?

"Why don't you go again?"

"besides-"

The woman suddenly thought of the previous situation and asked, "Do you still need to make the call?"

"No need to fight."

Seeing the woman's increasingly puzzled expression, Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, "That aunt has already told me what I wanted to know."

"Of course there's no need to make the call."

"You don't have to go to your friend's house."

"Now, let's go to your friend's grave."

woman:.
I always feel that it’s the same as if Mr. Xiao Xiao didn’t say anything.

She was still confused.

She looked at the man with black-framed glasses and was not surprised to find that he had the same expression as her.

She took a deep breath.

Forget it.

She had a feeling that as long as she reached Rongrong's grave, all the doubts she had accumulated until now, at least most of them, would be answered.

In that case, she was not in a hurry to find out the truth.

"Mr. Xiao Xiao, follow me."

The woman led the way.

Xiao Xiao and the man with black-framed glasses followed immediately.

Just as the aunt said before, the cemetery of Zhangjia Village is on the mountain.

Rongrong’s grave is naturally no exception.
