Chapter 1031: Visiting the Grave (38)
On the morning of Chinese New Year’s Eve, even the newly bought servants joined the ranks of those exercising.
After the exercise had ended and a simple breakfast was eaten, the family donned their plain clothes and took with them the silver ingots and incense they had prepared in advance; it was necessary to visit the graves on New Year’s Eve.
Although the main branch had severed ties, at that time they had only divided the family register and moved out of the Yang Family ancestral hall, but Yang Baiyue’s grave had not been relocated from the ancestral cemetery, so they were headed to the Yang Family ancestral graves.
The Yang Family ancestral cemetery was halfway up the hillside and was mostly covered with graves.
The morning of New Year’s Eve was the customary time for tomb visits, so it was inevitable to encounter other people, and everyone exchanged greetings with one another.
They hadn’t walked far before they ran into people from the old residence; Old Master Yang was leading a few members of the second branch, obviously also on their way to the cemetery.
Xun Hui felt somewhat ill at ease upon seeing Old Master Yang and didn’t know how to react, so she secretly tugged on Yang Ruxin’s sleeve, "Xinxin..."
"If you wish, give a greeting, if not, you can pretend not to see." Yang Ruxin patted Xun Hui’s hand, knowing she was trying to change herself, but a personality couldn’t be altered just because one said so; however, as long as she was willing to try, that was a comfort to her.
Xun Hui nodded and did her best to calm down before smiling at Yang Peili, "Father."
