"Nuan Nuan, have you packed up, and are you ready to go."

Shu Hao rode a bicycle, looked at the half-open courtyard door, and shouted loudly to the people in the house.

Shu Nuan heard the shout, and hurriedly replied: "It's coming, it's coming." ”

The two met and went back to the village together today.

Now that the sky is just dawning, people are opening the doors one after another.

Because he had to go back for a few days, the steamed bun stall naturally couldn't be placed, and Shu Nuan also began to inform his old customers about this matter two days ago.

What Shu Nuan didn't know was that in the past few days when she was out of business, the black car was still parked on the side of the street waiting.

When he returned to the entrance of the village, Shu Nuan jumped out of the car and waved his hand to Shu Hao: "Brother Mouse, see you later." ”

"Well, let's go back."

Shu Hao smiled and rode in the other direction of the village.

Although the two families are in the same village, they live in different directions.

Shu Nuanti slipped through his belongings, and as soon as he walked to the fork in the road at the entrance of the village, he saw the two people waiting here.

"Grandma, Mingming, why are you waiting here?"

She hurried over, and the large bags of things in her hands were picked up by the two of them.

Wu Huihong smiled kindly: "It's not early, just go home for lunch." ”

"Eldest sister, I miss you so much."

Shu Zheming whispered, leaning towards her with red ears.

Shu Nuan reached out and rubbed the top of his younger brother's hair, and said with a chuckle: "I miss you too." Let's go, let's go back. ”

The three of them returned home happily, and then began to discuss the matter of going to the grave tomorrow.

…………

This weekend, the weather was fine.

This is when Shu Nuan opened his eyes, he noticed today's weather conditions.

At home, I prepared the incense and candles, brought a hoe, and then went to Shu's house to meet with the people over there.

The location of the graves on several nearby hills is not concentrated, but it is also not far away.

"Guoqiang, are you ready?"

Wu Huihong asked her son a question, and then looked at the people behind her.

Shu Guoqiang nodded and took the initiative to open the door of his yard.

"Mom, you guys come in first and sit and wait for a while, I'll go get something and come over."

"Well, go ahead." Wu Huihong responded, and urged: "It's almost half past nine, let's go early and come back early." ”

"Okay."

Shu Guoqiang bowed his head slightly and walked into the room quickly.

After the people who could talk to left, several people in the courtyard glanced at each other, and each turned to pack his things, ready to go up the mountain to sweep the grave together.

After about five minutes, Shu Guoqiang walked out of the door with a basket on his back.

"Alright, bring all your things and go up the mountain together."

At this time, naturally no one else refuted, so he took incense, candles, paper money, and the weeding tools that he needed for a while, and walked outside together.

Even Niu Chunhua, who was reluctant to go up the mountain, locked the door and kept up with everyone's pace with the offerings.

A group of people walked on the mountain road, and on the way they met people who also went to sweep the grave, and after greeting each other, they parted ways halfway up the mountainside.

"Why are there so many weeds on the road, it hurts me so much."

Shu Rou scratched her arms and shouted loudly in displeasure.

Shu Xue glanced at her babbling second sister, and said with disgust: "There are already a lot of weeds on the mountain, and I have already reminded you to wear long clothes and trousers when you go up the mountain, but you are unwilling to wear them for the sake of looking good." Now, who are you to blame? I didn't make it myself......"

"Humph......"

Shu Rou glared at Shu Xue angrily, and quickened her pace to the middle of the crowd.

If someone is out of the way, be careful that the overgrown weeds don't actually cut anyone.

The group followed the mountain road and first went to worship a few tombs that were nearby.

And they went up from one end of the hill, and after a while they had finished worshipping, they went down from the other side of the hill.

Every year is the case, and everyone is used to this pattern.

After coming to a bamboo forest, the group stopped.

Shu Nuan looked around and confirmed that several of his graves were here.

"Ah He, come with me to shovel soil."

Shu Guoqiang shouted to Shu He, and then handed over the extra hoe.

Shu He reluctantly took the hoe and kept up with his father's pace.

After the two men went to shovel dirt next to them, several women here also began to act.

Wu Huihong took a sickle to clean up the weeds on the grave, while Shu Nuan and Shu Zheming helped clean up together.

Over there, Niu Chunhua commanded her two daughters to put the incense and candle offerings on the table, and then stood next to her and watched with her arms folded.

In the case that several other people were busy, Niu Chunhua's move was extremely eye-catching.

But now, no one is arguing with her about anything, what to do.

Usually few people come to the grave, and only when they have to worship every year, they come to clean up the weeds around them.

And now it's spring, and many weeds are growing tenaciously in the spring, so it looks like weeds are growing in a short period of time.

After a while, Shu Guoqiang and Shu He each dug up a large piece of soil and came back and covered it on the grave.

The so-called going to the grave is to come to the grave every year and then clean the surrounding weeds and dead branches.

After a few people were busy, the two graves belonging to their own families were finally cleaned up.

"Come, burn some paper money for your grandfather."

Wu Huihong greeted Shu Nuan and Shu Zheming, and lit incense candles herself.

"Wife, we're coming to see you again, if you lack anything below, give me your dreams, I'll prepare it for you, and don't be reluctant to spend the money......"

While Wu Huihong was chattering, Shu Nuan knelt beside him silently and burned the dark coin.

In fact, now, there is less and less attention to going to the grave. There are very few people here who kneel down to burn the coins, after all, the mountain is very dirty, and there are a lot of rocks, as long as you bow before leaving.

Several other people also put incense on Grandpa's grave and then burned some coins.

After chattering for a while, Wu Huihong put incense on another grave next to her with a sad face.

"Hong'er ......"

The old man shouted softly, silently burning the Stygian coin.

Shu Nuan looked at her grandmother's expression and let out a long sigh in her heart.

She knew that this was her sister-in-law's grave, and her grandmother sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person, and she still felt uncomfortable after so many years.

When Shu Nuan lowered her eyes and thought about it, Wu Huihong turned her head and beckoned to her.

"Nuan Nuan, come and give it to you...... My sister-in-law kowtowed a few times. ”

Shu Nuan was slightly puzzled by her grandmother's sudden pause in the middle of the way, but she still walked over slowly and knelt down on her knees and kowtowed three times.

There was a time when she wondered why so many younger siblings in her junior had to kowtow to this sister-in-law who died early every year, while a few others didn't.

But after so many years in the past, she didn't ask anything anymore, after all, she hadn't received a definite answer for so many years, and her grandmother probably didn't want to mention it, and she didn't want to arouse the other party's sadness.
