Chapter 193 Cypress
Lu Jingyao and Xu Youyou didn't think that good grades were particularly worthy of praise. They really couldn't stand the crazy rainbow farts of parents on both sides of the house. If they continued like this, they probably could even sneeze and praise them.
Therefore, the two left the house in a very tacit understanding.
"I won't say anything when you come, so I can ask someone to pick you up." Xu Youyou said.
Lu Jingyao said a little apologetically: "Don't blame me for being abrupt. I heard you say you were going back to the orphanage once, so I asked the driver to navigate."
"I originally wanted to come here by myself, but my parents said that as friends' parents, they should come to the door for a formal visit. They didn't ask me to notify me in advance because they were afraid that you would be in a hurry and wonder if they would disturb you?"
Xu Youyou shook her head.
This feeling is actually quite wonderful for her. After all, since she was a child, this is the first friend to come all the way to visit her, and it is still the kind of particularly formal visit with her parents.
She used to think that Lu Jingyao was a big customer and a generous partner. Although she said she was a friend, she always felt that there was something in the relationship. Now that gap seems to have completely disappeared.
She can now say that Lu Jingyao is a good friend.
"Thank you." Xu Youyou suddenly said.
When Lu Jingyao heard this, he said, "What's the point of thanking me? I should thank you. I am willing to be a tour guide for us."
Xu Youyou didn't say anything, but smiled at him, thinking to himself that the dean's mother was worried that she had no friends and was also worried that she would be deceived by her friends. Now that she made true friends, the dean's mother should be relieved.
Lu Jingyao asked again: "You should have what you originally wanted to do today. Don't worry about me, just do your own thing."
Xu Youyou heard this and said, what to do after frying glutinous rice **** every year... She turned her head to look at the green on the mountain to the east and said, "I want to go to the mountain."
Although Lu Jingyao knew that this was where Xu Youyou grew up, he couldn't help but worry about her safety and asked, "Can I go with you?"
After Xu Youyou hesitated for a moment, thinking that Xu's mother was looking forward to her making friends, and taking Lu Jingyao there was a surprise.
She turned around and went into the room and took out a bamboo basket. It was covered with yellow paper, a few threads of incense, and wine and food offerings.
Lu Jingyao's expression immediately became serious.
Xu Youyou has been following people all the time for the past six months, and she has long been used to not having to carry things by herself. She is still a little uncomfortable with carrying things just now.
If it weren't for the place to go, Xu Fang and the bodyguard were not convenient to follow him, and she was worried that Lu Jingyao would be a guest, she wouldn't be able to carry things by herself. At this time, she felt that the things were too heavy and uncomfortable.
Lu Jingyao suddenly stretched out his hand to her.
Xu Youyou was stunned, and Lu Jingyao bent down slightly and reached out to pick up the basket of things.
Xu Youyou only felt that it was a little more pleasing to Lu Jingyao.
Xu Youyou led the way. Her dean's mother had never married and had no children of her own. Until her death, she was still thinking about the children in the orphanage.
Before her death, she specifically told her to bury her in a place where she could see the children.
One by one, one by one, slowly walked up the mountain along the mountain path.
"The mountain road is hard to walk, you can walk slowly." Xu Youyou reminded Lu Jingyao.
Lu Jingyao said, "I'm wearing hiking shoes today, so there's no big problem."
Only then did Xu Youyou notice that Lu Jingyao, who has a three-piece suit for many years, was wearing a casual outfit today and was indeed wearing a pair of black hiking shoes under his feet.
It’s just that Lu Jingyao is wearing such a demeanor now as the temperature is close to sub-zero. "Are you cold?" Xu Youyou asked.
Lu Jingyao shook his head: "I have been not afraid of the cold since I was a child."
Xu Youyou didn't continue to pay attention to his clothes.
After walking for another seven or eight minutes, Xu Youyou suddenly stopped in front of a cypress tree with a fist as thick as a baby: "It's here."
Lu Jingyao looked around with a slight look, but he did not see a place similar to a tomb.
"My mother Xu lives here. She doesn't want to waste more money, so she asked us to sprinkle her ashes under the tree." Xu Youyou pointed to the cypress tree in front of her.
Lu Jingyao did not expect that Dean Xu would even abandon the cemetery. Judging from Xu Youyou's description, it seemed that even the jar of urns was not preserved.
Xu Youyou squatted down, Lu Jingyao took out the offerings in the basket, and skillfully rubbed the yellow paper, showing a perfect fan shape.
Then Xu Youyou took out the lighter and lit the yellow paper and the incense of thread.
"Mama Xu is a particularly firm materialist. She not only does not want a cemetery, but even makes us not to see her often. She said that living people should move forward and not always think about the dead people." Xu Youyou explained.

Lu Jingyao whispered: "This President Xu is really an extremely open-minded person. She must be particularly important to you."
Xu Youyou nodded slightly and said, "The girl in our orphanage has the surname Xu, and the boy and Dean He have the surname He. My name is her. She said she hopes that I will be leisurely and free for the rest of my life without any effort."
Xu Youyou said sorry in her heart. She was extremely useless in her previous life, and she completely let down the dean's mother's expectations.
Unfortunately, at that time, she was blinded by family affection and could not see who was the one who was really good to her. She gave everything for hopeless family affection and ended up in a desperate situation.
"She can rest assured if you are like this now," said Lu Jingyao.
Xu Youyou nodded vigorously. The life after she had money was truly carefree. No matter whether she bought it for money or not, at least the people around her now did their best to make her happy.
As for family affection, it’s all bullshit.
The yellow paper burns clean.
Xu Youyou felt as if she had let go of something. She stood up and bowed to the cypress tree. Lu Jingyao also slowly bent down.
"Mom Xu, this is my friend Lu Jingyao. Look, I made friends outside." Xu Youyou said, sprinkling a glass of wine on the ground.
Lu Jingyao also cooperated very well and said to Bai Shu gently, "Mom Xu, Youyou is a very good friend. I am very happy to make her a friend. I hope you can bless her to be happy all the time."
Xu Youyou turned her head when she heard this, her eyes became a little warmer, which was considered to be his name to him.
"Mom Xu, I will come to see you next year and talk to you again." Xu Youyou said with a smile.
A light breeze blew, and the branches and leaves of the cypress trees swayed slightly, as if they were responding to the promises.
When he turned around, Xu Youyou staggered, and Lu Jingyao held her quickly with his eyes and hands. His movements were extremely fast and extremely restrained. As soon as he helped the person, he immediately let go of his hand. His movements were as fast as Xu Youyou's hallucination.
When they returned to the orphanage, the elders were still having a very passionate chat. When Lu's mother saw the two of them return together, her eyes flashed with excitement.
"The two children have a good relationship. They look like they are like young couples." Lu's mother lowered her voice and said to her husband.
