The love of the older generation is not vigorous, every word and action in the days is lighter than boiled water, and after a long time, the husband and wife even talk to each other are just lazy love and ignorance. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info chatter, in fact, are some very plain words, as if they are living an ordinary couple, talking about a little trivial thing in life.

Li Daozheng sat next to the grave, his tone was unwavering, his expression was as plain as water, but his gaze staring at the grave seemed to be looking at a big living person, and there was no sadness in his eyes.

Perhaps, the sorrow that should be vented has been vented in the past 20 years, sitting by the grave, not complaining of lovesickness, but still worrying about the afterlife of his deceased wife, afraid that she will suffer in the next life, afraid that she will lie here alone without a firstborn, and even more afraid that her own coming will not be worthy of her......

The fate of husband and wife is one life, but Li Daozheng seems to have taken on the responsibility of two lives.

He is guilty of his deceased wife and has low self-esteem. Li Su heard it from his tone, Li Daozheng always felt that his deceased wife was entrusted by no one, and he always felt guilty that his deceased wife suffered with him back then, and he was even inferior to his identity that was not worthy of her, and this inferiority complex was even extended to the next life.

Li Su only felt very distressed, and felt sorry for his father. Dad has always been silent, wooden, honest, and no different from ordinary old farmers, but he has a lot of simplicity, kindness, and responsibility that many powerful families do not have.

Silence and wood are just a layer of dust, Li Su knows that Li Daozheng's heart is like hot magma, surging and hot, but the long years have sealed this volcano full of passion.

Looking at the grave stupidly, Li Daozheng's eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking, maybe he was recalling the peaceful but happy years with his deceased wife, or perhaps, he was still blaming himself for not having enough responsibility back then, which made his deceased wife suffer a lot.

Li Su sniffed, wiped away the tears on his face, got up and patted Li Daozheng on the shoulder.

"Dad, let's go back, you miss your mother in the future, you can come to see her often, and the child will come to weed and ......incense her mother's grave every month in the future."

Li Daozheng sighed and said, "Let's come together with father and son, while I can still move now, I can still see her a few more times, I'm afraid I won't be able to come if I'm older in the future......"

Li Suqiang said with a smile: "Dad, don't say this, the child is uncomfortable listening to the widow in his heart, how can he be called old in his forties?" You don't get old until you live to seventy or eighty, and you still have more than half of your life. ”

Li Daozheng smiled: "How many have you seen who have lived to seventy or eighty?" There are more than 100 families in the village, and there are only one or two who really live to be seventy years old, this year, it is normal to live to the age of thirty or forty and die, and it is considered to have earned it by living to the age of forty or fifty, and I am now over forty years old, and I have earned one more day of life, birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm in the world, and if the yang life is enough, I will die, and the next generation will continue to live for myself, and I will not come over like this for thousands of years. ”

Li Su was sad for a while, he knew that what Li Daozheng said was the truth, the average life expectancy of this year is indeed not so long, it is normal to die at the age of thirty or forty, because of diet, medical treatment, genes and other reasons, people often live to be in their forties and call themselves "old husbands", later generations do not understand why the ancients said that "life is rare for seventy years", but this is a fact, people in this era can really be called high life after living to be seventy years old.

Looking at Li Daozheng's indeed somewhat old face, Li Su smiled and said: "Dad, you are a big hero on the battlefield, others can be old, you can't be old, heroes will live to be 100 years old, and killing the enemy for the country can be regarded as accumulating yin virtue." ”

Li Daozheng shook his head: "No matter who you kill, what you do is a sinful thing, and the things that come and go are not big heroes......

Turning his head to look at the grave, Li Daozheng sighed: "In my life, I have a bad background, I don't live well, the road I walk is too difficult, there are too many people to live up, and I don't have enough heart to do it, I live so tired, but I didn't live a good life, and I also tired your mother to suffer hardships and sins, and I have no ......interest in my life."

"When I was young, I also had some greed, I wanted to be a lieutenant or a general or something, how good it was to be an official, I was hugging from front to back, there was gold and silver, beauty and power, and then the general gave me a few military books for me to read, I read for a long time, I couldn't even recognize the words in it, every time the general asked about the strategy of arranging troops, I was always speechless, and I could see that the general was very disappointed, and I gradually found that I didn't have the life to be promoted and make a fortune, and I slowly lost my mind......"

Turning his head and glancing at Li Su, Li Daozheng had a little relief in his eyes, and said with a smile: "You are stronger than me, much stronger, people have to believe in fate in this life, I am not as good as you at your age, in fact, I still don't know, where did your unpredictable ability come from, I haven't seen you read since I was a child, I haven't seen you kill enemies, except that you are whiter than the children in the village when you were a child, there is not much difference...... Who knew that your ability suddenly came out, all the way to the promotion, to the rank of lord, even to make a deal is a casual stroke of the gold and silver mountains into the house......"

Looking at him lovingly, Li Daozheng smiled and said: "Unconsciously, after a few years of hard work, you have become a big man in the Tang Dynasty, at my age, I can only give you the share of the horse and the stirrup, you are stronger than me, like your mother, soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, decisive in handling things, fortunately like your mother, like my words can not be done, but also a lifetime of farming life facing the loess with his back to the sky." ”

After taking a deep look at the grave again, Li Daozheng stepped forward and patted the mound on the grave, his movements were very gentle, as if patting his sleeping old wife.

"Yingniang, I'm leaving, I'll come to see you in a few days, when you asked me to bury you here before you died, it's too deserted here, I'm really afraid that you will be lonely...... Wait for me again, I'll come to accompany you when I die, not now, I don't worry about our son, you wait a little longer......"

"Alas, when I buried you here, I felt that half of my life was also buried, and I have lived ...... all these years" Li Daozheng's voice suddenly paused, and his eyes suddenly turned red again.

Snorted vigorously, Li Daozheng waved his hand heavily: "Go, go back!" ”

…………

It was starting to snow, and the dirt road on the way back was covered with a thin layer of snow, and the cold wind swept the snow particles and slapped on the face, causing a slight pain.

The father and son were very silent, everyone's mood was very depressed today, and they couldn't say why, but they felt the feeling of a big stone pressing on their chests, and they couldn't breathe.

Li Daozheng was riding on a horse, the wind was a little cold, Li Daozheng tightened the coat on his body, Li Su hurriedly took out a bear skin from the back of the horse, and breaded him from the back.

Li Daozheng shook his head and refused: "No, I'm not old enough yet, my body is strong." ”

Li Su smiled: "It's my son's filial piety, whether you like it or not." ”

Li Daozheng snorted, affectionate and still stubborn, but wrapped the bear skin and wrapped himself tightly.

Li Suce walked a few steps quickly, walked side by side with his father, and said tentatively: "Dad, why do you want to bury your mother in that wasteland?" It's not convenient to incense my mother on the New Year's Day, and there is a grave near my mother, how lonely she is. ”

Li Daozheng sighed: "After all, your mother is from a rich and noble family, and I lived in seclusion in Taiping Village for many years, although we shared weal and woe, but she didn't have much contact with the villagers in the village, and before she died, she asked me to bury her in that wasteland, where ...... It's a little closer to Chang'an City. ”

Li Su was silent, and suddenly said, "Dad, why did you put two stone horses in front of your mother's grave?" ”

Li Daozheng said with a smile: "When your mother was alive, she had nothing to tell me about the rules of the imperial court, I heard her say that after the death of the Duke of Guo, a pair of stone horses will be placed in front of the grave, and many livestock and gold, silver and jade terracotta figurines will be buried with me, I somehow remembered it at that time, and later after your mother was buried, there was no money left in the family to bury your mother, but her brother was a general of the imperial court, and he was knighted as the Duke of England, and his brother was the Duke of Guo, and it was natural for his sister to put two stone horses in front of the grave......"

Li Su's face is a little dark, he is really ignorant and fearless, but fortunately, the old lady's grave is selected in the middle of nowhere, and no one finds it in a tall weed, otherwise the father will have a big lawsuit.

After the death of the Duke of Guo, what to put in front of the grave, how to place, how many burial goods, what can be buried with the burial, what can not be with the burial, that is a set of ironclad rules, anyone who trespasses a little will wait for bad luck, the emperor is unhappy, maybe even the grave is picked up, and the specifications of the mausoleum after the death of the Duke of Guogong do not mean that the sister of the Duke of Guo can also draw a gourd in the same way, it is completely different from good......

Li Su rode on the horse thoughtfully, and secretly decided in his heart that he would find a way to make a big contribution in the near future, and Li Shimin did not want all the rewards given, and relied on this credit to ask for a name for the dead mother, and posthumously awarded a county lady, at that time, the stone horse in front of the mother's grave could not only be placed in a grand manner, but also changed to a pair of bigger and more majestic, and no one could find fault with it.

Coughing twice, Li Su sighed: "Dad, ...... in the future" Don't add anything to other people's graves. ”

Li Daozheng glared at him and said angrily: "When I am a fool, I can't do it? I am the only one of my relatives in the world, and I have nothing to add to the grave of someone's family? ”

"Yes, yes, when the child is also crowned the prince of the country in the future, he will give his mother a pair of majestic stone horses......"

…………

Early the next morning, Li Su went out and went straight to Li Ji's mansion.

Although Li Su is not used to having an uncle out of thin air, the number of etiquette that should be there is still no less, and it is just that he does not know about it in the prison of Dali Temple, and now he knows and does not come to visit, he will be scolded for not having a tutor, and even his father will be poked in the back.

So Li Su not only came to the door, but also loaded with gifts from two large ox carts, from green vegetables to spirits to perfume, and by the way, he also collected a lot of precious medicinal materials and supplements in the warehouse at home, such a scale is definitely a generous gift, in this life, except for the ill-fated robbery by Cheng Lao hooligans halfway, Li Su has never been so active and generous.
