Seeing that I had co scratched his head and said in embarrassment, “It’s because I was afraid that you will find it to be bad luck so I didn’t dare to tell you in the beginning Our faeneration has always been in funeral service Then, it was passed on tothis As for my dad and mom, they work outside and rarely co with randma You see those bundles of paper dolls and paper clothes?

When ere al abruptly stood up He placed so, “I’ll send this to grandpa” I also quickly stood up, wiping etically at the old woman “Uhm, I’m done too Thank you for your hospitality”

shi+ Yitong didn’t seeave chase after him and in the end, I was unable to restrain randpa come out to eat?”
