[The special funeral mission has been initiated, and the corresponding mission shop is open.]
[One could exchange for mission supplies in it.]
[A high-quality Suona.]
[Special breathing technique.]
[National style grandmaster level aura.]
[Ancient style men’s plain clothes.]
Without a doubt, this was another exclusive mission set. Su Chen immediately claimed all of it.
When he had accepted the mission, he was still a little worried about where he could get his hands on a proper Suona. Now, the system’s shop had completely solved his problems.
After exchanging for the mission supplies, Su Chen could use them at any time. Next, he had to wait for Principal Tang’s funeral.
…
At the hospital.
More and more people gathered in the corridor. People from all over the country and even the nearby towns rushed over when they heard about Tang Ying’s incident.
Many of the elders were carrying hoes and various tools on their shoulders.
Their eyes were filled with nervousness and disbelief.
Many of them could not help but wipe away their tears and snot as they thought of Principal Tang, who had been fine just half a month ago.
“How did she suddenly become so ill? At the beginning of the month, Principal Tang even came to my house to pay a home visit to my girl. She was still fine at that time!”
“Yeah, it is too sudden! My legs are going weak. If I didn’t come here, I wouldn’t believe it even if I was beaten to death!”
“Sigh, good people never live long!”
“I didn’t dare to tell the children. Usually, the two children in my house call her mom… When I think of her suffering now, I want to cry! I can’t take it anymore. At this age, it’s just too easy to get sand in my eyes.”
The people gathered here were all elderly. After all, this was a poor village. Only the elderly and children remained in the village.
The young and able had already gone out to work.
At that moment, a few people suddenly walked over from the corridor of the hospital. They were all unfamiliar faces, both male and female.
Two intern teachers from the school accompanied these people.
From the looks of it, they looked somewhat similar to Principal Tang.
When the woman in the lead saw that the corridor was filled with people, she immediately frowned.
“Why are there so many people? Where’s my aunt?”
“She’s in the ICU. She’s in a severe coma and could be in mortal danger at any moment!”
Xiao Lin explained.
At the same time, he motioned for everyone to make way. The woman in the lead was Principal Tang’s sister’s daughter, her only niece.
She was also Tang Ying’s only relative.
Upon hearing this…
The woman and the people behind her changed their expressions:
“What? Why didn’t you tell me that she was in the ICU? The medical fees must have cost a lot of money, right?”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier? We don’t have any money!”
Her man immediately interjected from the side. His harsh and sarcastic look was immediately revealed.
He glanced at the people around him. They were all old men and children from the villages and towns. At that moment, everyone’s eyes were already focused on him.
“Everyone has already collected the money for Principal Tang’s hospitalization. Don’t worry about spending your money!”
Hearing their cold words, Xiao Ai immediately said without holding back.
She felt very uncomfortable. She did not expect the selfless, kind and loving Principal Tang to have such relatives.
From the moment they contacted them, these people had been very impatient and unwilling.
It seemed that they did not want to visit Principal Tang.
If not for the fact that these people were the only relatives of Principal Tang, Xiao Lin and herself would not have invited them to come.
As she sensed the strange gazes from the people around her, the woman quickly laughed awkwardly:
“Hehe, don’t misunderstand! It’s not that I don’t want to give up this money, but I’m mainly worried that my aunt would only suffer. The ICU here is not as good as the one in our city. If I had known this would happen, I would have brought her to the provincial hospital!”
“Quickly bring us in to see her!”
Under Xiao Lin’s lead, the few of them walked into the ward.
The sound of medical equipment running echoed in the empty ward. There was a special disinfectant smell that filled the air in the ward.
It did not smell good.
Under normal circumstances, the ICU did not allow easy visits. However, it no longer mattered for Tang Ying.
It was past the point of saving, so the doctor allowed them to enter.
She looked at Tang Ying, who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed. Her face was pale and haggard.
The woman frowned again. She did not look too good. She did not choose to go closer. Instead, she asked the doctor who was accompanying her in the ward.
“My heart has been racing ever since I entered the hospital. I’m very nervous. Can you tell me about Auntie’s current condition?”
She had a son, a daughter, and her husband behind her.
The doctor briefly explained Tang Ying’s condition and did not hide anything.
Even in the most optimistic scenario, she would probably not be able to live past tomorrow.
The woman’s expression immediately changed. She quickly pulled the two children behind her and pounced the side of the hospital bed. She grabbed Tang Ying’s rough hands tightly and wailed:
“Your life has been so tough, my aunt!”
“It’s all my fault. I’ve been too busy to take the time to visit you. You haven’t even met my two kids! You can’t just leave like that!”
The sudden scene caught the two intern teachers off guard. The woman who had been so sarcastic earlier was actually blaming herself and being sincere?
The two of them looked at each other. Xiao Ai was a little regretful. She seemed to have wronged this woman earlier!
She had thought that she did not want to come.
She had not expected this family to show up in times of adversity.
Did her niece also feel her heart ache?
Just as she was about to step forward to comfort them, the woman suddenly dragged the two children to kneel on the ground and made them kowtow to Tang Ying.
“Come, Ziyou, Zimin, quickly kowtow to old aunt! Who knows, your grandaunt might even wake up when she hears your voices!”
…
The sounds in the ward attracted the attention of many people in the corridor.
As they heard the woman’s wail, many old people also stood outside the ward and secretly wiped their tears. They also could not bear to part with Principal Tang.
“It’s been more than ten years, but this is the first time we’ve seen Little Tang’s relatives come to visit her.”
An old man with white hair said in a sentimental tone.
Over the past ten years, Tang Ying had endured with all her might, but she had never had anyone from her family visiting her.
She would certainly have never expected to see them by her deathbed.
Yet, she was about to die.
As soon as she finished speaking, another wave of sighs followed.
Perhaps it was because crying was contagious, or perhaps it was because there were too many difficulties in the adult world. As they listened to the wailing in the ward, the corners of everyone’s eyes welled up with tears.
The woman pulled the child and kowtowed twice. She called out to her aunt.
“Aunt, the child is calling for you. Please wake up! Open your eyes and look at the children!”
Seeing that Tang Ying did not react, the woman wailed on the spot.
The people in the ward were crying, and the people in the corridor were wiping away their tears.

Bai Xiaonian, who was standing at the door of the ward with her grandfather, seemed to understand that Principal Tang was about to leave her. She immediately burst into tears:
“Principal Tang! Principal Tang!”
She burst into tears. The children who had come along with their grandparents also burst into tears.
For a moment, the entire hospital was filled with cries and wailing.
No one noticed that the fingers of Tang Ying, who was lying on the hospital bed, were trembling violently….
