Li Muyu took the morning star to the back mountain of the back street, Li Muyu's orderly was waiting there with a backpack on his back, and when he saw them coming, he was ready to follow them, Li Muyu waved his hand, put the backpack on his back, and asked him to wait at the entrance of the village.

Li Muyu took Morning Star, father and daughter walked up the winding path on the mountain side by side, and after walking for a few minutes, Li Muyu turned his head to look at Morning Star, and saw that her face was not red and she was not panting, so she was relieved.

Halfway up the mountain, Morning Star was a little sweaty, Li Muyu knew that she was tired, so he took her to rest on the big bluestone on the side of the road for a while, he looked at the distance at the top of the mountain, and said to Morning Star: "We have walked almost halfway, and if we go so far, we will almost arrive." ”

Morning Star was a little strange and asked, "Uncle Li, why is my mother's grave buried so high?"

Li Muyu also felt that he should give his daughter a chance in advance, so as not to scare her for a while, thought for a while, and said: "The first time I came over, I found a villager to lead the way, but the other party refused to come, I begged him repeatedly, and he reluctantly agreed, but asked me for a fright fee of 300 yuan." ”

"Frightened?" Morningstar was surprised, "Is that place scary?"

"I was also surprised at the time, and asked him why he said that, and the villager told me that the place where your mother buried her bones is called Yinyang Slope, which was originally a slope under the shade of a boulder, and it has always been windy, but since your mother was buried there, the villagers walked there again, and the wind would rise nine times out of ten, and the villagers thought it was a yin wind, and everyone refused to come!"

Although Morningstar hadn't read much, he didn't believe much in these superstitions, so he asked his father, "Do you know what's going on?"

"I didn't understand it at the time, you know, this was more than 20 years ago, at that time, my father's monthly salary plus various subsidies was less than 200 yuan, and the number he wanted, at least more than 8,000 yuan now, he dared to ask for so much, I think he definitely didn't fool us.

I came with your Uncle Qin, I gave him the money, and he took us over, and we arrived at your mother's grave, and just put on the red dates and melon seeds I brought to your mother, suddenly there was a gust of wind......"

Chenxing shuddered suddenly, Li Muyu patted her hand soothingly, and continued: "The villager who led us the way was scared away immediately, after I burned the paper money for your mother, I looked around with your Uncle Qin, and went back to consult a professor who studied I Ching Feng Shui, and finally understood what was going on." ”

After going back, Li Muyu painted a picture of the environment around the moon lotus tomb, and showed this painting to the professor, after the professor saw it, he told Li Muyu that the tomb was built on a slope close to the top of the mountain and not facing the sun.

In order to make the soul peaceful, the family specially transplanted a row of locust trees on the west side of the tomb and a row of willow trees on the south side, and planted tall trees that were already several years old, which changed the airflow pattern of this place.

Morning Star was relieved, after Li Muyu told Morning Star about it, he got up and continued to walk, Morning Star looked at the backpack on Li Muyu's back, remembered what he had just said, and guessed that it must be red dates, melon seeds, fire paper and other things, Li Muyu is also in her fifties, or she is on her back.

She grabbed the backpack from Li Muyu's back and said to Li Muyu: "Uncle Li, let me carry it for a while, I grew up in the countryside, and when I was a child, I ran on the mountain every day, Su Yue said that I walked on the mountain like walking on the ground, which is amazing!"

Seeing that she was indeed in good physical strength, Li Muyu didn't fight with her anymore, Chenxing put on a backpack on his back, and felt that it weighed almost seven or eight pounds, it seems that his father brought a lot of things!

The father and daughter walked for more than 20 minutes, and they arrived at a shady slope near the top of the mountain, at this time it was already March, winter went to spring, the earth air rose, and the east wind blew not cold, but I didn't expect to get here, Morning Star immediately felt a chill.

Li Muyu had been here a few times, and he knew very well the feeling of sudden coldness, so he reached out and grabbed his daughter's hand and said, "Come, follow me." ”

The two walked along the uphill path for more than ten meters, and arrived at the tomb of Yuehe, although this is a slope, a platform was built in front of the tomb, and a cement tablet was erected in front of the tomb, which was engraved: The tomb of the beloved daughter Liu Yuehe

On the side is the life of the deceased and the name of the person who erected the monument, Chenxing has not practiced calligraphy, and the words are written in general, so he feels that the words on the tombstone are okay, but Li Muyu is unique in calligraphy and painting, looking at the calligraphy on the tombstone, he has long felt that it is too ordinary.

He really wanted to set up a tablet for Yuehe himself, and the words on it were engraved by him, and he had been suffering from not having this qualification, but now that the old man's attitude had finally changed, he thought about it, and turned back to let Morning Star mention it to his grandfather.

Morningstar opened the backpack, which contained incense, fire paper, four small trays, and offerings of red dates, melon seeds, beef jerky, and a gourd chicken.

Morning Star lit incense, placed all the offerings in small trays, then took out the fire paper and knelt down in front of his mother's grave.

At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and the wind was still swirling, almost blowing the incense down, Morning Star quickly stretched out his hand to support it, and said in his heart: Fortunately, Dad told me about it first, otherwise I would have been really scared.

Fortunately, the wind only blew for two or three minutes, and then it stopped automatically, Li Muyu handed the lighter in his pocket to Chenxing, who lit the lighter and began to burn paper money for his mother.

While crying, she said to her mother in her heart: Mom, I am Morning Star, I am late, you must be very concerned about me all these years, right? I am doing well now, with a good job, a good income, and a good life, and my husband is Su Yue! You have taken him for a few years, and he has reciprocated to me, and he has been very good to me, and I often think that when I meet him, it is the red thread you have drawn to me! I have also found my father, and he is also very good now, so you can rest assured......

After Chenxing finished burning the thick wad of paper money, Li Muyu, who had been squatting on the side and was silent, handed Chenxing a white handkerchief with a silk texture and said, "Use this to wipe your tears, so as not to make your eyes uncomfortable." ”

Chenxing obediently took it and wiped away the tears on his face, Li Muyu knew that she had been kneeling for so long, and her calves must be a little numb, so he stood up with her.

Li Muyu opened the mezzanine of the backpack again and took out two scrolls, Morning Star knew that this must be a painting, did Dad draw two more pictures for his mother?

Li Muyu squatted down again, first untied the soft rope of the long scroll, and when he opened the picture, he hesitated for a moment, and said to Chenxing: "You turn your back, this is what Dad wants to show your mother alone." ”

Hearing his father say this, Morning Star had to turn around, but he couldn't help but guess in his heart, what did Dad draw?

She heard the sound of the lighter and knew that her father was burning the painting, she couldn't help but be curious, and secretly glanced back at the picture, and saw a bright red color, the picture was two men and women in red clothes, this picture was so familiar, Morning Star immediately realized that her father had painted the scene of the two of them getting married! No wonder he didn't let himself look good!

After burning the painting, Li Muyu took the initiative to ask Morning Star to come over to help, Morning Star held one end of the drawing paper and opened the small scroll, Morning Star looked at the picture carefully, and couldn't help but shed tears again, this is the picture of a family of three crammed on the sofa to read a book in his father's imagination, the three people in the painting, Li Muyu and Yuehe are very young, Morning Star is only a few years old, squeezed between them with a mischievous face, and is rubbing his mother's long hair.

Morning Star cried and said, "Uncle Li, you painted me too beautifully, my face didn't grow when I was a child, and there are black hairs on my face, I don't look so good!"

Li Muyu's face was also full of tears, but when he saw Chenxing crying, he quickly stopped, took out a white handkerchief from his pocket, wiped his daughter's tears, and told her:

"When I last met your mother, you were almost nine months old, and your mother guessed that you were a girl, and discussed with me a few words about who you look like, and I said that you would definitely take the advantages of both of us, and look very beautiful, and your mother was not so optimistic, and said that maybe it was all shortcomings? ”

Chenxing's heart became more and more sad, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he nodded and took the lighter and lit the painting, because the paint in the painting was very rich, and the painting burned and emitted a dazzling colored light, which reflected Li Muyu's pale face, and he said silently in his heart:

"Yuehe, I heard a professor of reproduction say that children are evidence of love between parents, and couples who love each other will give birth to children who take the advantages of both parties, although you and I have never said anything at that time, but in each other's hearts, they are the best evaluation of each other!"
