Chapter 609: Going to the Grave
"The wedding reception was set up twice, once in Province G and once here. Li Shenyuan did not explain why he placed wine in the woman's hometown, but told the matter of the wedding wine.
Li Zetian only thought that he took a step back, and he was not aggressive, "That's it! Then when will you go back to Province G? On that day will the engagement banquet be held?"
"Tomorrow I will go to the grave of my father and mother, probably the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and the engagement banquet is scheduled for the fifteenth day of the first month, and Grandpa Li and Uncle Li are preparing. Li Shenyuan said.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it was a good day. After pondering for a moment, Li Zetian said: "You are in a hurry, and you can't let go of this side of the family for a while; I will rush over on the tenth day of the new year! The engagement banquet is set up at the woman's side, and you can't have no elders here." ”
Li Shenyuan nodded, "Well, I will give you the round-trip fee before I leave with Zhouzhou, the things on the train are not delicious and expensive, remember to bring some cakes and water to eat before you leave." By the way, it's quite cold over there in Zhouzhou's hometown, colder than ours, so you should bring more clothes to keep warm. As for the rest, you don't need to bring it, the Zhouzhou family doesn't lack anything. ”
As soon as Li Zetian heard this, he guessed that Li Shenzhou's family was well-off, and he felt a little guilty for a while, "I hope you won't regret marrying her, don't think about divorce after you get married, it's not good for you." ”
"I understand that the boat is my life, and I am reluctant to lose my life. If he hadn't grown up with Zhouzhou since he was a child, maybe he wouldn't have fallen in love with Zhouzhou, maybe he would have lived a mess in this life, and he wouldn't know what heartbeat is, what liking is, and even what love wouldn't have understood.
Thinking about the life he experienced in the heart demon tribulation, Zhouzhou's death made him feel pain in his heart and lungs, and he never married a wife in his life, and he was just a lonely family when he died.
"That's it, let's go back!" Li Zetian only felt upset, the more his nephew treated Li Shenzhou, the more he disliked it; he knew that this kind of thought was wrong, but he couldn't control it.
After Li Shenyuan saw Li Zetian leave, he turned around and went home; he walked outside her door and pushed the door, but found that he couldn't open it, thinking that it was bolted from the inside. I wanted to take a good look at her before going back to sleep, but now it seems that this idea is not going to come true, so Mo turned around and went back to his room, lying on the bed but unable to sleep all night.
The next morning, she got up before dawn, washed up, and played a set of martial arts in the courtyard; seeing that the sky was bright, she still didn't get up, so she could only go and knock on the door.
"Knock knock......" Li Shenyuan knocked three times, and his hand paused, "Zhouzhou, are you up?" ”
As soon as Li Shenzhou came out of the space, he heard a shout, and hurriedly replied, tidied up his clothes, and opened the door, "Brother, why did you get up so early?"
"It's not early, you see it's dawn, and the sun is coming out. ”
Li Shenzhou took a look at it, isn't it! It's not early, usually she gets up before dawn when she's fine, but it's late today, no wonder her brother will come to wake her up.
"Brother, I'm late, and we're going to the county seat now?"
Li Shenyuan bowed his head, took her hand, pulled her out of the room, took her into the stove room, and made hot water for her, "After washing, we will go to the county seat, go early and return early, and we will have to go home to Province G the day after tomorrow at the latest." ”
"Oh. Li Shenzhou obediently washed his face and brushed his teeth, and after washing, his face was relaxed.
Li Shenyuan poured water and wiped his hands, took her hand out of the stove room, and the two of them went back to the room to change into clothes, and sent the remaining New Year's gifts to several old people in the clan and sat down for a while. When I got home, I took the money and the ticket and went out together.
The morning sun is rising, and the warm afterglow is sprinkled.
The two walked out of the village holding hands, and hurried all the way to the county seat; they found a place to sell incense, candles, and paper money.
Paper money bought four handfuls, incense candles each bought a dozen or so, incense candles can be used whether it is for the New Year's holiday, or to the grave, especially for the festival to burn for the ancestors, that is necessary.
For people like them, there are more incense sticks in reserve, and as for firecrackers, four rolls are also bought.
Back in the village, the two first went to pull weeds for their parents and go to the grave, burned the paper money, and talked to Li Shenyuan's parents for a while.
After spending half a day in front of the grave, the brother and sister went home hand in hand when the sun went down.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Bai Yiming and Bai Xiong waiting at the door, they didn't open the door to enter even if they had the key in their hands, but waited outside the courtyard.
"Uncle Bai, Brother Bai. Li Shenyuan and Li Shenzhou invariably called people.
Bai Yiming looked at them with a smile, "Are you going to the grave for your father?"
"yes, no, I just came back. Li Shenzhou tossed the few incense candles left in his hand, and some of them had been put in the space; he didn't feel that the money for incense and candles was in short supply before, but now it's different, and there are still several years to boil, and the customs that have been passed down for thousands of years cannot be forgotten.
Others can forget, but she and her brother can't forget. In the past few years, everyone will still burn paper money for their ancestors' graves, even if it is a lot of trouble in the past ten years, it will still be continued in the future.
To exist is to be reasonable.
"There are not many people in the county who sell incense, candles, and paper money now, and only one or two families sell them quietly. Bai Yiming sighed.
"Well, when we went to the county seat, we also walked a lot of places to find one. Li Shenyuan pushed open the door, "Uncle Bai, Brother Bai, sat down inside and said. ”
Bai Yiming nodded and walked into the courtyard with his son.
Li Shenzhou brought them stools and asked them to sit, and then poured a bowl of water for each of them, and then sat down beside Li Shenyuan.
Bai Yiming took a sip of water and said slowly, "Shen Yuan, when is your engagement banquet with Shen Zhou?"
"The fifteenth day of the first month. ”
"Why did you choose this day?" "The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the last day of the whole New Year, and many families will choose to do something happy on this day.
Li Shenyuan said: "I'm busy at work, and I can't stay at home for a few days after the engagement banquet. ”
"Yes. Bai Yiming suddenly realized, "You are busy with work, you have to push the engagement banquet closer, then you give me an address, and I will go with Bai Xiong on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." ”
Li Shenyuan smiled, "Okay, you sit down for a while, I'll go to the room and get a pen and paper to write the address to you." ”
Bai Yiming nodded.
Li Shenyuan patted Shen Zhou on the shoulder, got up and walked into the next room, and after a while, he walked out with a notebook and a pen, quickly finished writing the address, tore off a page and handed it to them.
