The people around, upon hearing this, started sighing once more.
No one noticed an old and slow figure slowly walking away... heading toward the gate of the Ruan Family villa.
According to the customs here in the Ruan Family, when someone passes away in the winter, at most three days of rituals are held, and in the summer, not more than two days.
But the death of Ruan Jiaojiao was like a bolt from the blue for the Ruan Family; no one could accept this fact.
The rituals had been going on for three days and nights, yet the Ruan Family had not agreed to place the coffin, let alone proceed with the burial.
As the rumors outside said, Shu Jiao couldn't accept this fact.
When the crowd surged toward the Ruan Family, they witnessed such a scene.
Eight young men kneeled quickly before the coffin, each looking grief-stricken.
Someone, upon seeing so many young men, was taken aback: "There's quite a number of lads in this family, and there's one in a military uniform."
