Tomb sweeping is a very strict thing.

At least for most people, it's a very strict thing.

Worshipping the dead, remembering the past, and lamenting the living are sentimental people's acts of comforting their hearts.

After all, the dead are gone, and whatever the living do in the world has little to do with them.

In the final analysis, such things as tomb sweeping and worship can only comfort the hearts of the living and allow them to remember their past feelings.

With the help of the girl, Li Yunfei cleaned up the weeds growing near the tombstone, carefully wiped the dusty tombstone with a water-soaked handkerchief, and then gently placed the prepared white chrysanthemum in front of the tombstone.

Looking at the tidy tombstone, Li Yunfei clapped his hands and stood up, announcing the end.

The girl on the side was a little confused.

"Is that all there is to it?"

"Well, that's it."

"Don't you need incense? Don't burn paper money either? ”

The girl was very confused, but Li Yunfei smiled peacefully.

"My wife doesn't like those things, so it's enough to do that."

The girl nodded as if she didn't understand, and stood side by side with Li Yunfei in front of the tombstone, she looked at the black and white photo on the tombstone, and was a little amazed.

"My sister is very beautiful."

Li Yunfei couldn't help laughing.

"Anyway, it's also my wife and Ling'er's mother, how can she not be beautiful?"

The girl was stunned.

"No wonder Ling'er is so cute, it turns out to be her mother's inheritance."

Li Yunfei's smile stiffened.

"Hey, I don't like to hear this sentence, as if I'm not handsome?"

Li Yunfei shouted and shouted, "Ling'er is so cute, it's obviously a genetic me." How could I be ignored by you for a handsome and dashing guy like me, who loves everyone and loves flowers? ”

The girl couldn't help but laugh.

"Brother Yunfei, you really don't blush at all."

As she spoke, she looked at the names on the tombstone and read them out word by word.

Zhao Yuanxin...... Was my sister's original name Zhao Yuanxin? What a nice name. ”

Li Yunfei snorted, looking proud, "Of course, you don't look at whose wife it is, of course the name is good." ”

The girl was speechless.

"The name should have nothing to do with Brother Yun Fei, right? Didn't Sister Yuanxin's name come from her parents? ”

Li Yunfei glared at the girl, "If you dismantle me again, I'll flatten you." ”

The girl subconsciously covered her ass and jumped away, as if she was really afraid that Li Yunfei would hit her ass, and the girl hurriedly said that he had diverted the topic.

"Anyway, why didn't Ling'er come? Brother Yunfei, don't you bring Ling'er with you? ”

The smile on Li Yunfei's face disappeared.

He looked at the tombstone in front of him, then at the girl next to him, and sighed.

"Ling'er didn't know that her mother had died......

After a pause, in the girl's stunned expression, Li Yunfei said lightly.

"Or I know, but she hasn't accepted this fact yet, so I haven't brought her to sweep Yuan Xin's grave."

Saying that, Li Yunfei looked at the black and white photo on the tombstone in a daze, looked at the familiar person in the photo, and said slowly.

"Five years ago today, there was a huge explosion on Jianye Road, when the entire street was blown up, hundreds of people were killed, houses collapsed, and an unimaginably large crater was left in the middle of the city, as if it had been hit by a meteorite."

"The official explanation is a gas explosion, and although I don't think that a gas explosion can cause that kind of damage, this statement has long been a fact in people's mouths, and no one can question it."

Ling'er's mother happened to be on Jianye Road at the time and was affected by the explosion. When I was notified by the police to rush over, I didn't even see her bones, and there were no real bones. ”

"The only relic she left in this world may be the fragment of her clothes blown out by the explosion wind."

Li Yunfei stroked the tombstone in front of him, his expression a little silent.

Ling'er was only three years old at the time, and she didn't even know how to add and subtract from one to ten, crying every day to find her mother. For such a child, I told her something about death and death, and she probably didn't understand, right? ”

"So like many parents who encounter this situation, I lied to Ling'er that my mother had gone to work far away and would not be able to come back until a long time later. If Ling'er is obedient, then you can see her earlier. ”

"In the first year, Ling'er was very obedient, and although she would ask my mother every day when she would come back, she always believed that her mother would definitely come back."

"But as time goes by, the days of my mother's absence are getting longer and longer, and every time I can only say, 'Mom will be back soon, Ling'er is obedient, or I won't be able to see my mother soon', and gradually, even children who don't understand anything should understand something."

"So in the second year, Ling'er no longer asked when my mother would come back."

"It was probably at that time that Ling'er finally realized that her mother would never come back, right?"

"Later, Ling'er found out that I would go home every night on June 20 and come back very late, and after a long time, she also guessed something. So since last year, every year on June 20th, she will carefully remind me what day it is before I go out. ”

"To this day, however, she hasn't told me to take her to see her mother. Maybe although she already knew about it, she still didn't want to accept such a result, and still held the idea that her mother would definitely go back to her one day, holding on to this last glimmer of hope. ”

"So in the past few years, I have never talked to her about sweeping the grave, and I have no idea of bringing her here. Maybe one day, when she finally musters up the courage to accept this qiē and asks me to bring her, I will take her to visit the grave with me. ”

"But at least until then, I'll be alone."

After speaking, Li Yunfei glanced at the girl beside him and couldn't help but smile.

"But this year, I have a new friend coming along, and it is much more lively than when I am alone, at least this cemetery does not seem to be so deserted."

Li Yunfei smiled gently, but the girl looked lonely, as if she was very sad.

She opened her mouth and was about to speak.

However, a voice interrupted her.

"Are you Li Yunfei?"

The voice of arrogance and disdain suddenly sounded in the cemetery, breaking the silence here.

Li Yunfei raised his head and saw a man in a black windbreaker standing on a tombstone dozens of meters away, looking him up and down at this time.

It was a person he didn't know at all, so Li Yunfei was a little confused.

"You are?"

The man pursed his lips, "Liu Yuqi, exiled reincarnation, the Lord God asked me to come." ”

As he spoke, he looked Li Yunfei up and down, as if he was looking for something.

"So you're an observer of this world? The Lord God said that if I find you, you will find your way back? It's true? ”

Li Yunfei laughed.

"Obviously, you've been cheated. I am not an observer of any world, nor do I know any Lord God, nor do I know how to send you back. ”

As he spoke, Li Yunfei patted the shoulder of the girl on the side and said to her.

"Xiaomeng, you go to the door and wait for me first, I'll come after I finish dealing with things here."

The girl was a little worried.

"But Brother Yunfei, that person seems to have bad intentions......"

Li Yunfei patted her shoulder and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, you Brother Yunfei and I are not so weak that I can't help but be bitten by this kind of mad dog that doesn't know where to come out...... You go outside and wait for me, I'll be out soon. ”

The girl glanced at the man who suddenly appeared worriedly, and finally listened to Li Yunfei's words and left obediently.
