Chapter 293: Burning Incense (II)
Tao Sixi buried her head and pressed her face against the grave, the earthy smell of the soil after being blown by the sun mixed with the fragrance of the grass and trees, lingering her nose.
She was quietly clinging to the grave, the grass and the breeze brushing her cheeks, as if the gentle palm of her mother caressed her.
"Mother, my daughter is not filial, my daughter has come to see you......"
A tear slipped down the corner of his eye.
After burning incense from the mountain, he kowtowed, and stood quietly in front of his mother's grave for a while, until Tao Chunsheng urged him for the third time, and Tao Sixi did not move.
Step by step, she turned back to go down the mountain, and on the way, she said to Tao Wangsheng: "Dad, when I come to burn incense again during the New Year's Festival, I want to set up a monument for my mother." ”
There is no inscription, this tomb looks like a lonely tomb without an owner, standing a piece, there is a row, just like in front of the Yang house, there is a big plaque with a surname, which says so-and-so house and so-and-so house.
Before Tao Wangsheng could speak, Tao Chunsheng spoke first: "The four girls really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, and this monument is less than three or four hundred dollars......
"Second Uncle thus learned that I was not at home?" Tao Sixi asked rhetorically.
Tao Dalan immediately said: "Second uncle, most of the food and clothing in our big house today are earned by the fourth sister." ”
Tao Chunsheng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Even if you make a little money, you can't fool around, your mother has been dead for more than ten years, and the monument is no different, a woman's family is not a rare person, and it is a pure waste of money to install the monument." ”
"If the second uncle dies, you don't need to be safe, it's a waste of money. And my mother, must be safe, although she is not a big person, but she is the heaven in my heart, I will pay for her to set up a monument! Tao Sixi said coldly.
Then, he glanced at Tao Wangsheng: "Dad, do you have no opinion?" ”
Tao Wangsheng's face flushed, "No, no opinion......"
"That's good!" Tao Sixi said, and then went straight down the mountain at a faster pace, and Tao Dalan hurriedly followed.
Behind him, Tao Chunsheng reacted and scolded angrily: "Big brother, listen, what are the four girls talking about?" The curse of the daylight that my second uncle died early? Big brother, you don't care if you're a father? ”
Tao Wangsheng's face turned even redder, and he snorted: "Second brother, you too, you obviously know the temperament of the four girls, why do you have to say those words in front of her?" Don't you know that she cares about her mother? ”
"There's nothing wrong with what I said, that's really a waste of money!" Tao Chunsheng is still insisting on his own point of view.
Tao Wangsheng was silent.
Tao Laohan couldn't stand it anymore, and scolded Tao Chunsheng: "You are also nosy, the four girls of the family paid out of their own pockets to erect a monument to her mother, what does it matter to you?" Shame yourself! ”
"Dad, why are you talking to that dead girl?" Tao Chunsheng couldn't help it and asked loudly.
"Second uncle, my fourth sister is not a fourth girl, my fourth sister is the most filial person in the world!" Da Ping also loudly defended Tao Chunsheng.
Tao Chunsheng was stunned again, and raised a slap to scare Daping: "Who are you talking to?" Is it begging? ”
Although Da Ping was a little afraid of Tao Chunsheng's fierce and vicious appearance, he still bravely raised his head and looked at Tao Chunsheng stubbornly.
Tao Wangsheng hurriedly stood in front of Da Ping and blocked Tao Chunsheng's hand: "It's almost there, this time I went up the mountain to burn incense, you scolded the big ones and beat the small ones, why is the anger so big?" ”
Tao Chunsheng stomped his feet, "Big brother, it's not me who said, you don't care about your children, you won't be able to control any of them in two years, you will cry when the time comes!" ”
Leaving these words, Tao Chunsheng pulled up Daming: "Let's go, let's go down the mountain, don't go with them!" ”
Da Ming was pulled by his father and staggered down the mountain, looking back at Da Ping reluctantly as he walked, the little brothers just talked interestingly, I really want to say a few more words......
