Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 8 What does it mean that everything is gone?
Bai Mingwei's thoughts kept turning, and it was not until Cheng Bi arrived holding little Chuanyi that she broke her thoughts.

She took out her grandfather's handwriting and slowly unfolded the white paper, her hands shaking uncontrollably.

After a while, she heard her trembling voice: "News came from the border. In the battle at Yinshan, [-] soldiers of the Dongling Kingdom were wiped out, and no one survived."

"None of the eleven men in my Bai family can come back, and... all of them are gone."

Rao was the first to get the news, but when it was brought up again, Bai Mingwei was still heartbroken.

And the female relatives of the Bai family in the ancestral hall are——

In an instant, the sky fell and the earth sank.

"No! Husband!"

Suddenly, Shen passed out.

Little Chuanyi, who was being held by Cheng Bi, still didn't know what Bai Mingwei meant by 'all gone'.

He was confused and looked at the female members of the Bai family who looked different. Then when he saw his mother passed out, he immediately burst into tears:
"Mom, mother, what's wrong with you? Mother?"

And it seems that they were influenced by Chuanyi. The moment he cried out, the female family members of the Bai family in the ancestral hall knelt on the ground in an instant:
"No, I don't believe it. Girl, are you kidding us?"

"There is no way my father will die. Sister, even if you are favored by your grandfather, you cannot say such nonsense."

……

Bai Mingwei looked at all this, and his heart was filled with overwhelming sorrow. However, it was not time to cry yet.

Supporting Mrs. Shen and gently patting her sister-in-law's cheek in her arms, she choked and said: "Sister-in-law, now is not the time to fall down."

Her son's heartbreaking cries and her sister-in-law's grief-stricken shouts made Mrs. Shen slowly open her eyes.

She bit her lip tightly to prevent herself from crying, but the tears had already flowed down and soaked her clothes.

"Mingwei, this is not true, your eldest brother..." Shen covered her face, but tears kept overflowing from her fingers.

Bai Mingwei straightened his back and opened his mouth, his voice hoarse and hoarse: "Sister-in-law, Chuanyi is crying, can you comfort him?"

Mrs. Shen stumbled to her son and was about to speak to comfort him, but found that she couldn't make any sound. She collapsed, hugged her son tightly and cried.

The seventh sister-in-law, who had just married into the Bai Mansion, had tears in her eyes and asked cautiously: "Miss, are you saying that my husband... he can't come back?"

Bai Ming trembled her lips slightly and closed her eyes in pain. She didn't know how much strength she used to spit out the word "yes".

"No, it's impossible, I don't believe it." Sister-in-law Qi shook her head desperately and backed away as hard as she could.

Tears fell one by one. She couldn't believe it and murmured: "I just put his hair into a woman's bun, why is he gone? The husband I just had, you told me he is gone?"

Chuanyi, who was only three years old, saw this and asked confusedly:
"Mom, eldest aunt, why is Aunt Seven crying? What's wrong with her?"

"Chuanyi, your seventh aunt..." Bai Mingwei was about to answer, but was interrupted by Mrs. Shen crying:

"Chuanyi, your seventh uncle is gone."

"Gone? What do you mean?"

"No, it means you will never see your seventh uncle again, and he will never be able to take you out to play secretly again."

Mrs. Shen cried and hugged Chuanyi tightly, tears streaming down her face, but she still had to continue speaking:

"Chuanyi, not only your uncle, but also your grandfather, your second grandfather, your third grandfather, your second uncle, your third uncle, your father..."

"Chuanyi, your father is gone. You will never see your father again. You can no longer sit on your father's shoulders. You no longer have a father... Chuanyi, you will never see your father again." There is no more daddy!”

"Wow... I want daddy, I want daddy!"

Finally, Xiao Chuanyi finally understood what 'all gone' meant.

He cried and shouted:

"Mom, I want my father, I want my grandfather, and I want my seventh uncle. Mom, can you take me to find my father?"

Seeing that Mrs. Shen was crying and not answering, he cried loudly and shouted to Bai Mingwei:
"Auntie, Chuanyi is obedient and not naughty. Can you take Chuanyi to find his grandfather and uncle Qi and the others? Auntie, Chuanyi wants his father. Can you take Chuanyi to find his father?"

His cries became louder and louder, and everyone's sorrow seemed to be torn open and poured out like a torrent.

The women in the Prime Minister's Mansion held their hands and cried, crying endlessly:
"Husband!"

"father!"

"Second brother!"
