Funeral, Pei Family Cemetery.
Elder Pei and the old madam were buried together. Their coffins rested in the memorial hall, awaiting burial after the rites were completed.
The cries of children echoed incessantly.
"I want Great-Grandma! I want Great-Grandma! Let me see Great-Grandma!"
Yan Luan leaned into his mother's embrace, sobbing so hard he could barely catch his breath.
A child too young to comprehend the meaning of death, he just knew that the person who loved him the most—his Great-Grandma—was now lying there, never to open her eyes to look at him again.
Yan Luan could not accept this!
His small face was flushed red with tears as he shouted to lie beside the old madam.
Pei Jue reached out and picked Yan Luan up, his large and steady hand pressing against the child's writhing back.
"Yan Luan, your Great-Grandma is only sleeping."
"Then, will we see Great-Grandma again in the future?"
"Yes, every year you'll be able to come back and visit Great-Grandma."
