Chapter 108: Worship Your Parents
The red Wrangler Jeep drove into the gate of Yongle Cemetery. Guo Songlin parked the car in front of the reception hall of the cemetery, got out of the car with Wen Jing, and walked into the reception hall together.
At the memorial supplies here, Guo Songlin bought two bouquets of white chrysanthemums and bought some memorial plates.
However, when he was buying burning paper, the staff of the cemetery told him that from March this year, all major cemeteries in the city are not allowed to sell burning offerings to tomb sweepers, and tomb sweepers are not allowed to bring burning offerings to burn in the cemetery.
In fact, this measure has been introduced as early as the relevant policies nationwide, and Shengjing City is a relatively late implementation area. The state is now vigorously rectifying environmental pollution, advocating green sacrifices, and all sacrifices that harm the environment are banned.
Wen Jing took Guo Songlin's hand and said: "Don't let you burn paper, forget it, we are also good citizens of Shengjing, we should respond to the call of the country, put an end to bad sacrifices, and strive to be an example of a civilized city!" ”
"You are still in one set, you really deserve to be the broadcast host of the provincial station, this consciousness is not low! I think this development continues, and you are about to join the party! Guo Songlin scratched Wen Jing's nose with his hand.
"I was originally a party member, and I joined the party when I was in college, don't you know?" Wen Jing said angrily.
"I really don't know about this, and you didn't tell me! Looks like I'm going to have to move closer to the organization! After Guo Songlin finished speaking, he wanted to hug Wen Jing with his hand.
Wen Jing pulled Guo Songlin's hand away with her hand and said, "Can you be serious?" Don't look at what kind of place this is, now it's here to worship your parents, good, good! ”
"I'm here to let them see my daughter-in-law, otherwise, the second elder thinks I've brought back a fake daughter-in-law!" After saying this, Guo Songlin hugged Wen Jing tightly, Wen Jing wanted to break free, but how could she have Guo Songlin's strength, and Guo Songlin walked out of the gate of the cemetery reception with her arms.
After going outside, Wen Jing made a lot of effort before she broke free of Guo Songlin's arms and said, "Who is your daughter-in-law?" Your current daughter-in-law is called that thinking, and I am a junior at best. ”
Hearing Wen Jing say this, Guo Songlin's face suddenly pulled up, and he said very reluctantly: "If you say that again, I'm really angry." Today I am here to show you my parents, and this is the first time I have brought someone else here! Usually I come by myself. ”
Seeing that Guo Songlin was really angry, Wen Jing took the initiative to walk over and snuggle up to him like a kitten, and said, "You are amazing!" Let's go, hurry up and take me to meet your parents, otherwise it will be dark in a while, and I don't want to wander around the cemetery in the middle of the night, it's too scary! ”
As soon as Wen Wenjing reminded him, Guo Songlin looked at the sky illuminated by the sunset, couldn't help but become serious, took Wen Jing's hand, and walked towards the mountain.
Guo Songlin took Wen Jing and walked a long way, and finally climbed to the top of the mountain.
On a large open field at the top of the mountain, there is a cemetery that is different from other places, and there is the best cemetery that Guo Songlin specially bought for his parents.
In front of the high raised mound, a tombstone carved from white marble is erected. The tombstone is engraved: father Guo Jingming, mother Zhou Yanyan, son Guo Songlin Jingli.
Guo Songlin led Wen Jing to the tombstone, placed the sacrifice in his hand at the front of the tombstone, and gave Wen Jing a bouquet of white chrysanthemums, and then the two of them put the white chrysanthemums in their hands in front of the tombstone.
The two men took two steps back and bowed three times in a row to the tombstone together.
"Mom and Dad, I have already come to see you during the Qingming Festival, and today I specially brought your daughter-in-law to see you."
After Guo Songlin said this, he put his arm around Wen Jing again, and said again to the tombstone: "Mom and Dad, her name is Wen Jing, and we have been together for almost a year." Although it is said that the son cannot marry her in a short time, the son has already determined that this woman is the son's daughter-in-law for life.
My son has a big thing to tell his parents here, Wen Jing is pregnant! Mom and Dad, you're about to become grandparents, are you happy? Our old Guo family will have a future from now on! Although I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, this is the blood of our old Guo family after all.
Rejoice for your son. You know, you two left me so suddenly, I didn't even see you for the last time, my son misses you! Do you know how your son has persevered over the years? ”
Speaking of this, Guo Songlin couldn't say any more, let go of the arm holding Wen Jing, knelt on the ground weakly, and began to cry loudly.
Wen Jing was on the side, and she was also overwhelmed by Guo Songlin's sudden move. I didn't know why my legs were weak, so I knelt down with Guo Songlin.
Guo Songlin knelt on the ground, his head drooped weakly, his hands supporting the ground, and the tears in his eyes had already wet the stone bricks in front of him.
Seeing the man he loved kneeling beside him, Wen Jing's heart was indescribably uncomfortable at this moment, and tears flowed out of his eyes unconsciously. Now she didn't know how to comfort Guo Songlin, so she could only hug him tightly and cry with him.
The sun was about to set in the distance, struggling to let out its last rays like an orange-red egg yolk. The clouds on the horizon were already red from the setting sun.
Guo Songlin and Wen Jing knelt there and cried for about ten minutes, and their eyes were already red from crying.
Wen Jing wanted to pull Guo Songlin up from the ground at this time, but with her small physique, how could she pull the burly Guo Songlin!
After a while, Guo Songlin slowly got up from the ground, dragged Wen Jing up, helped Wen Jing clean the dust on her knees and legs, and then cleaned the soil on her body.
"You tell my parents, how can you say that you are also a member of the old Guo family, and your parents will recognize you as a daughter-in-law." Guo Songlin said.
Wen Jing stood there, not knowing what to say, after all, this was the first time she had experienced such a thing.
Wen Jing tidied up the placket of her coat, then stood up straight and said to the tombstone: "Hello Mom and Dad!" My name is Wen Jing. I am now pregnant with Guo Songlin's child, and there is one thing I haven't had time to tell him, just taking the opportunity to worship your two elders, I will tell the news together!
I am pregnant with Guo Songlin's child, but not just one child, but three. Maybe there are men and women here, and you two elders can not only hold their grandsons now, but also report their granddaughters. ”
Guo Songlin, who was standing on the side and listening to Wen Jing's words, was stunned when he heard Wen Jing's last words.
