Xia Xiaoqin opened the rear door and got out of the car from the left rear.

"You're Xia Xiaoqin!"

A seven-year-old boy pointed at Xia Xiaoqin and shouted.

This child recognized Xia Xiaoqin, but Xia Xiaoqin didn't recognize this child.

But it doesn't matter, Xia Xiaoqin took out a bag of fruit hard candy from the car and beckoned to the child.

"Here, eat sugar."

The children's eyes lit up when they saw the candy, and someone knew Xia Xiaoqin, so they immediately threw their timidity aside and swarmed around to ask for candy to eat.

After a bag of sugar was divided, Xia Xiaoqin took out another bag of explosive sugar, this is the latest product produced by Shen Yuxuan's candy factory, and the distribution in the capital has not yet been completed, so Xia Xiaoqin ordered a box.

Xia Xiaoqin pointed to the driver Lao Zhao and said: "Whoever can count 20 can get an explosive candy from this uncle, and if he collects five explosive candies, he can get 1 yuan of New Year's money." ”

Xia Xiaoqin guided the children and said.

"What do you mean by explosive sugar?"

Xia Xiaoqin motioned to Lao Zhao to send one by himself first, and let the children taste the taste of explosive candy first.

Children like novelty and excitement, and when they first eat the explosive candy, their expressions are very exciting, some people shout, and some are anxious and a bite of "bah" stands out.

However, the pungent taste of the exploding candy is temporary, and the sugar heart inside is a hard candy with a fruity taste.

The children, who endured the pungent taste, ate the sweet candy and began to share the taste with their peers.

The children who spit out the explosive candy were greedy, and one of them couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to pick up the explosive candy on the ground.

Xia Xiaoqin hurriedly stopped him: "Count by heart, 20 numbers can be exchanged for an explosive candy." ”

The child's eyes lit up and he immediately began to memorize Arabic numerals.

“1、2、3…… 20！ ”

After the child finished carrying it, he successfully received an explosive candy.

He couldn't wait to stuff the exploding candy into his mouth, and after enduring the pungent taste, he finally tasted the fruit candy inside.

"It's orange-flavored!" The child shouted happily, then patted his chest and said, "I can do it again!" ”

"I can carry it too!"

"Me too!"

One child gets the sweetness, and the rest of the children can't help but want to participate.

It's a herd mentality that also emphasizes the children's sense of participation.

The most important thing is that Xia Xiaoqin's goal of stopping the children from ventilating and reporting has been achieved.

Xia Xiaoqin said with a smile: "You guys line up, carry them one by one, get together 5 explosive candies, and you can get another 1 yuan!" ”

There is sugar to eat and money to memorize, the children suddenly boiled, and according to Xia Xiaoqin's requirements, they lined up one by one, waiting for the memorization.

Xia Xiaoqin handed over the next work to Lao Zhao, got out of the children's pile, and caught up with Shen Shu and the others who walked into the old cemetery.

A new grave has been added to the old cemetery, and Xia Guoshan, who was buried two years ago, is already an "old resident" in the old cemetery.

Shen Shu and Xia Xiuxue both took off their hats, and Xia Xiaoqin also took off their hats.

"Lao Xia, I brought the children to see you."

After Shen Shu said that, he put down the basket in his hand and began to weed Xia Guoshan with the children.

Qingming and the first day of October are the days to worship the ancestors, Xia Guoshan's tomb has weeds, but it has not yet reached the dense level, I think someone has cleaned him on the Qingming Festival.

This made Shen Shu feel a lot better.

After the weeds were cleared, Xia Xiaoqin and the three began to add graves to Xia Guoshan again.

First, Xia Xiuxue took out an iron shovel to add soil to the tomb, then Xia Xiaoqin, and finally Xia Xiaofu, who couldn't hold the shovel, picked up some soil with his hands and added it to the tomb.

After the three brothers and sisters of the Xia family finished adding the grave, Shen Shu also put the offerings in place.

Xia Xiaoqin lit a candle, Xia Xiuxue took out the dark coins and tin foil, and began to burn silver coins for Xia Guoshan.

"Old Xia, can you see the children?"

Shen Shu showed a gentle smile and said to himself, "The children are still so obedient, Xiaofu and I have also taken care of their bodies, and they don't love to get sick so much."

Before returning to Henan, we had just moved to a new home, and our new home was in Shichahai, next to Xiaofu's grandmother's house, and the neighbors were also very good and took good care of our family.

When you leave, I'm worried about Xiaofu who hasn't been born yet, I'm worried about Xiaoqin, I'm worried about my poor health, and I'm worried about my paralyzed study.

Now that we're all doing well, can you rest assured? ”

Shen Shu sniffed, wiped the tears from his face, and continued, "We're all doing well, and I don't know how you're doing down there."

We'll give you more paper money, you can rest assured that the flowers, if it's gone, give me a dream, don't be reluctant to ask. ”

Xia Xiaofu picked up a 10,000-dollar coin and threw it into the brazier: "Dad, give you money." ”

Shen Shu laughed while holding back his tears to burn paper for Xia Guoshan.

When the coin is burned out, it shrinks and turns into black paper ash, which does not shatter immediately, it will roll with the wild wind, and when the wind disperses, it will turn into fly ash and melt into the earth.

The paper money was all burned to ashes, and Xia Xiaoqin and the others were leaving.

The offerings should not be left here, for fear of being taken and eaten by passers-by, for fear of attracting the village dogs and spoiling the offerings.

Xia Xiaoqin helped Shen Shu take the offerings back into the basket, and Xia Xiuxue hugged Xia Xiaofu to go first.

The driver, Lao Zhao, is still making explosive candy, and the child who has collected the most has already received 2 yuan.

Before Xia Xiaoqin got into the car, she gave all the remaining candy to the children and told them to stop chasing the car, which was not safe.

The child who recognized Xia Xiaoqin first found that Xia Xiaoqin was leaving, and asked, "Aren't you going home?" ”

"Go home, go home."

Xia Xiaoqin smiled and closed the car door and asked Lao Zhao to start the car.

The children ate the candy and sure enough, they stopped chasing the car.

The car passed by in front of Xia Xiaoling's house again, Xia Xiaoqin saw Xia Xiaoling again, and saw Miao Cui putting a quilt in the courtyard with the gate open.

The big red dragon and phoenix quilt is faced, and the standard is dedicated to happy events.

"Mom, Sister Xiaoling is really going to get married."

Xia Xiaoqin shared with Shen Shu.

Shen Shu didn't answer, because the car drove to Xia Xiaoqin's door.

There is a chain lock on the door of Xia Xiaoqin's house, and the lock is not rusty, so I think it is often used.

Xia Xiaoqin's house is next to Xia Guoliang's house, and Xia Guoliang wants to come to his house a lot.

"Xiaofu, look, that's our family."

Shen Shu pointed to the car window and said.

Lao Zhao hurriedly stepped on the brakes and slowed down the car.

Shen Shu was sure that Xia Xiaofu saw it, and asked Lao Zhao to increase the speed.

In the old mansion, apart from memories, there is nothing that can make Shen Shu nostalgic.

Memories can be stored in the brain, so it is the same whether you go back to that home or not.

"Didi."

The car drove out of Xiajia Village along the village road, and after leaving the village, Lao Zhao raised the speed to 50 yards and began to drive on the county road.

After leaving Xiajia Village, Xia Xiaoqin didn't have to care about the child who could call out her name, what doubts she had about the car driving directly out of the village, and how she would describe her journey to the adults.

Not to mention thinking about it, the Xia family would be angry, sad or moved when they knew that they secretly came back to worship Xia Guoshan?

Because it doesn't matter anymore, Xia Xiaoqin's purpose has been achieved.

"Go to Mahouzhuang."

Xia Xiaoqin said to the driver Lao Zhao.

Xia Xiuxue's mother was buried in the Hou family cemetery in Mahouzhuang, and this cemetery was in Xia Xiuxue's third uncle's field.

Yesterday, Xia Xiuxue contacted his second uncle Hou Qingjun, and there was still a long way to go from the village, and Xia Xiaoqin saw Hou Qingjun's family standing at the head of the village.

"The second uncle has lost weight again."

Xia Xiuxue said sourly in his heart.

Hou Qingjun has always belonged to a lean figure, and Xia Xiaoqin has no idea how much he has lost weight, but how much Li Xiang and Hou Zhi have gained weight, it is really clear at a glance.

Looking at Li Zhu's bulging body, he must weigh at least 150 kilograms, and Xiao Hou Zhi also has to have 80 kilograms, you must know that the second aunt Li Zhu is only 1.5 meters tall, and Hou Zhi is only 7 years old!

When Xia Xiaoqin left Anxian, her second uncle Hou Qingjun also joined the tofu business partnership, helping Li Xiang and Hou Qin deliver and sell tofu.

Hou Qingjun's family of three is still decently dressed, Li Zhu and Hou Zhi are fat like this, and they have lived a good life in the past two years.

"Didi."

The car entered the village by honking its horn, and Hou Qingjun craned his neck to look at the car when he saw it, wanting to see if it was Xia Xiuxue and others.

Li Zhu was more direct, before the car braked, Li Zhu led Xiao Hou Zhi to the front.

Fortunately, the driver Lao Zhao had good skills and controlled the speed, so he didn't hit her.

"Oops! It scares the hell out of me! Li Zhu shouted loudly.

Xia Xiuxue hurriedly got down from the co-pilot to see if Li Zhu and Hou Zhi were scared.

"Oops! It's a school car! ”

When Li Zhu saw Xia Xiuxue, his voice became louder and his eyes brighter.

"Old Hou, I'm back from school!" Li Zhu shouted again.

How could Hou Qingjun not see Xia Xiuxue, he was so excited that he didn't know how to speak.

There were many people chatting in the village, and Li Zhu shouted loudly, for fear that others would not notice that Xia Xiuxue came back in a car, as if she couldn't see that she had a relative.

The people who should have seen it had already seen it, and some people couldn't see Li Zhu showing off, so they deliberately asked, "Is this your paralyzed nephew?" ”

"If you can't speak, don't say a word, isn't my nephew standing well, where is he paralyzed!"

Li Zhu went back very violently.

"This car belongs to your nephew? There seems to be someone in the car. ”

A middle-aged woman leaned her head against the window of the car as she spoke, trying to see who else was in the car.

Xia Xiaoqin didn't have any plans to get out of the car, she asked Lao Zhao to press the horn to remind Xia Xiuxue to get in the car.

Xia Xiuxue didn't expect to be surrounded, when he talked to Hou Qingjun on the phone yesterday, he obviously said that he would go directly to his house and didn't let him pick up people in the village.

"Second uncle, let's go to the house and talk." Xia Xiuxue said to Hou Qingjun.

"Yes, yes, go sit at home." Hou Qingjun said to the villagers surrounding the car, "Let's go, let's go, we have to go home." ”

The villagers were quite cooperative and gave the car a vacant shift.

Xia Xiuxue opened the co-pilot's door and got back into the car.

After the car door closed, Li Zhu suddenly slapped the window hard and asked loudly, "Why don't you let us get in the car?" ”
