Chapter 283: Midyear Festival

On the day of the Midyear Festival, Jiangxi got up at five o'clock in the morning and set off towards the mountain with the Li family.

The first thing to go to is the cemetery of the old man and the old lady, and burn all the ingots they folded yesterday, so that the two old people can live better in the next day.

Jiang Xi and Li only brought lotus seeds and Qinghuan, a girl in green, with them, and in order to ensure safety, they also brought three or two small servants. That way, if something happens, they don't have to worry too much.

In the morning, before the sun came out, the group went up the mountain, if it was chosen at noon, Jiang Xi estimated that everyone would be sweating.

When they arrived at the tomb, the little servants all retreated and guarded outside, Qing Huan also stood farther away, only the lotus seed was still standing beside him with a basket and waiting for orders.

Jiang Xi and Li knelt down in unison, their eyes showing sorrow.

"Grandma and Daddy, we've come to see you."

Jiang Xi lit the ingots with a fire fold, and Li said while burning: "Dad, mother, I heard that today is the day when the ghost door is wide open, can you two also come out to see us."

Our family has been in our family for many years, and the days are getting better and better. Do you know that not only have we bought a property in the town, we have opened several shops, but we also have a home in the provincial capital?

Xi'er has grown a lot taller in the past year, and the relationship with the little son of the Song family has become closer and closer, these two children I know that they will be able to succeed when I look at them, and the two of you will bless the two of them below to turn evil into good fortune, and finally come together safely.

Speaking of which, you should all know Hao'er, he also came to incense at the beginning of the year and Qingming. Didn't you always worry that our Jiang family had no inheritance, but now don't be afraid, Hao'er is the inheritance of our family.

That kid was smart, capable, and a good reader, and now he's a showman. After a few years, I will definitely give our family a test and come back. And he is kind-hearted, and he will definitely not be like ...... Like that person, leave us all alone.

Originally, he was also going to come over today, but the kid recognized an old gentleman as a teacher. The old gentleman took him back to his hometown, and he would not be back until August. On the August Day, I was bringing him over to see you.

These ingots were folded by me and Xi'er, and we folded them for a day yesterday. Our family is having a better time now, and we can't let you live in poverty below, you can use it hard, if it's not enough, we will burn it to you next time.

Dad, mother, and daughter-in-law have done something, and I'm very sorry for you. That man, he came back, because he made a big mistake, we didn't save him, we didn't even receive the body. If he goes down to see you, you should give him some ingots, so that he can be fed and clothed, so that he will not be bullied by other imps.

Also, Dr. Yuan has been recovered, it was Xiu'er who went to find it, and the child is now following Dr. Yuan to reopen a pharmacy in the town, and the life of the two of them is living again, which is a great blessing, and you don't have to owe it anymore. ”

……

Li said a lot in a row, and Jiang Xi listened quietly on the side.

In the past, she felt that sweeping the tomb and offering incense was an extremely boring thing, and most of them were fake, and she always felt that it was not worth wasting time for this kind of ceremony.

Now, she finally understands why everyone is sweeping the graves of their loved ones. Not for anything else, but for the point of placing your emotions on it, it's worth doing.

Man is always an emotional animal, dominated by feelings.

The death of a loved one is difficult for many people to accept, and if you want to continue to live, you have to find a way to kill this irrepressible emotion.

Jiang Xi knew that the Li family had always been very sorry for the old man's death, and if he couldn't talk about it at the tomb, he was afraid that this body would have been knocked down by that guilt and sadness.

"Someone's coming!"

The little guy who was guarding not far away reminded Jiang Xi to look towards the location they said. Today is the Midyear Festival, there must be a lot of people who come to sweep the tomb, if it is someone else, the little guy should not deliberately remind him. Since you have spoken, it means that you are coming for this side.

Li wiped a handful of tears and looked over there.

I saw that on the mountainside, two figures were moving in this direction. The middle-aged man is dressed in white, and the whole person looks slightly thin, while the young man is dressed in blue cloth clothes, and he looks energetic.

These two people are the Doctor Yuan and Yuan Xiu in the mouth of the Li family just now.

They were not slow, and they soon came to this side.

Jiang Xi helped Li to get up, Li nodded to Doctor Yuan and Yuan Xiu, and Doctor Yuan also greeted them, and Yuan Xiu's eyes never left Jiang Xi.

Today's Jiangxi is also dressed in white, without any decoration on his head, like Qing Shui Hibiscus, which is already very attractive, not to mention that Yuan Xiu still likes her.

"Ahem!" Doctor Yuan coughed, and finally called Yuan Xiu back to his senses.

"Auntie, sister Xi'er."

Li nodded, and Jiang Xi also greeted them. "Doctor Yuan, Brother Yuan Xiu."

"We came here to think about a stick of incense, when I left before, Uncle Jiang and they were all fine. Unexpectedly, in just one or two years, there has been such a big change. ”

"yes." Li also sighed, "Many things in this world are unpredictable, and we can only go with the flow." ”

As she spoke, she stepped out of the way and set aside a place for Dr. Yuan and them to serve incense.

For what he said just now, Li himself didn't think anything was strange, but Jiang Xi and Doctor Yuan were shocked in place.

Jiang Xi also knew that Li was at home during this time, and began to learn to read some books, and sometimes came to ask her for advice. When Qin Hao was there before, the Li family would also ask Qin Hao.

However, she really didn't expect that Li's progress was so great that she could now say several idioms in a row.

After the incense, several people walked down the mountain together.

Doctor Yuan talked about the recent events in the town and in the shop, and Li also talked about some things in the provincial capital, and explained the reason why Qin Hao couldn't come back.

"That kid is a capable one. When I was in the Shen family before, I could see that he was smart. Now with the support of your family, coupled with his own willingness to learn and work hard, he may not be able to be admitted to the Jinshi in the future, and he may not be able to enter the top three. ”

Hearing Dr. Yuan's praise, Li smiled from ear to ear, and he still said modestly: "It's not as good as you say, I, I just hope that he will be promoted in the exam." By the way, you two can stay at my house at noon to eat, you don't have any servants there, it's rare for you to prepare by yourself, I'll just talk to the kitchen when I go back. ”

Doctor Yuan wanted to refuse, but suddenly thought of something, and nodded anyway.

He knew the reason why the Li family wanted to keep him, and because of Jiang Chengze's relationship before, he would suffer those crimes, and the Li family wanted to make amends.

He could actually not give this chance, but Jiang Chengze's fault, after all, it was not caused by the Li family, they were also the victims, and they even almost lost their lives for it.

Therefore, he has to accept this compensation no matter what.

"Okay, let's stay in your house for a light meal."

Seeing that he agreed, the happiest person was not Li but Yuan Xiu. He hadn't spoken to Jiang Xi for a long time, and if he didn't want to say a few words, the two would be separated again.

During Qixi Festival, he couldn't be by Jiangxi's side, and he didn't know what happened to her and the person surnamed Song. If you don't fight for it at this time, I'm afraid that Jiang Xi will really miss him in the future and marry into the Song family.

"Xi'er, I heard people outside say that your family got something called glass crystal out and made a lot of money, is it true?"

Yuan Xiu casually found a topic, Jiang Xi blinked as he listened, and began to be suspicious.

"There's such a thing, how did you think to ask about this?"

Jiang Xi wasn't suspicious of Yuan Xiu, he was just worried about what people were around him and what he had said to him, so that he could come here to get close to them.

"I ......" Yuan Xiu scratched his head, he didn't know what to say, he couldn't say that he wanted to talk to her, so he just pulled out a random word. Doctor Yuan's mind was delicate, and he saw the exploration in Jiang Xi's eyes at a glance, turned to look at Yuan Xiu, and said to Jiang Xi: "Don't listen to him, these are things in your business, so don't say it's inconvenient." ”

Dr. Yuan quickly moved on to something else, and the conversation came to an abrupt end.

The Midyear Festival is a big festival in this era, especially for the people in their village in Jiangxi.

Families have long gone to the bazaar to buy meat, one is meat for eating, and the other is called godly knife head meat. The latter kind of meat is to be given to one's ancestors.

Poorer people, even if they don't eat it themselves, have to buy knife head meat, and then cook it after the evening salute.

Because it is a festival that is only slightly inferior to the New Year, the Jiangxi family has prepared a lot of dishes, and the table is so full that it almost can't even put down the rice bowl.

Dr. Rao is Yuan has seen a lot of big formations, and he was also frightened by this sumptuous lunch.

"Today's festival, it's rare to get together, lotus seeds, you go to the cellar and get two pots of wine." Jiang Xi instructed, she still remembers, Dr. Yuan likes this bite very much.

Sure enough, when he heard that there was wine, the corners of Dr. Yuan's mouth opened open.

"When I was outside before, I kept reading this, and I was not in good health before, and this stinky boy still controlled me. It's rare to celebrate the holidays, and I can finally drink some! ”

After the meal, Yuan Xiu still wanted to stay here and talk to Jiangxi, but a patient suddenly came to the pharmacy in the town, and Dr. Yuan took him back.

As soon as they left, Li Shi sighed with emotion: "Yuan Xiu, that kid, is actually not a bad person, but it's a pity, you and the little son of the Song family already have feelings for each other." That's it, it's better to have less contact in the future. ”

Before, she hadn't seen it, if it weren't for Yuan Xiu's constant staring at Jiangxi today, she would have almost not noticed.

Jiang Xi immediately nodded, feeling that what Li said was very reasonable!
