Chapter 24: Mother and Daughter, Worship Godmother

At noon, the car drove into the parking lot of Wulongshan Cemetery.

Xu Lili carried her bag and took the umbrella, and Zhou Yang opened the trunk to take things.

"Did you bring all the candles and firecrackers?"

"Brought it, it's all in a cardboard box. Zhou Yang closed the trunk with one hand, saw her walking towards the flower shop at the door, and shouted, "You really don't need to buy flowers." ā€

"What's not necessary, how can I see my aunt empty-handed for the first time, how rude. Xu Lili turned her head, and Zhou Yang saw that she couldn't say anything, so he hugged the cardboard box and followed.

Behind him, a Mercedes Benz van drove by.

The car is spacious and isolated from the front and back.

In the back compartment, Wang Anjun, Zhou Fenghe, mother and daughter talked side by side, and their fair and elegant faces made them look more like a pair of sisters.

"Don't move, the earrings are crooked. ā€

Wang Anjun gently plucked the black pearl on her daughter's right ear, saw that her earlobe was slightly red, and said with a smile: "It turns out that my family's 'coldness' will also be nervous? Actually, I am also a little nervous, I don't know if Fengyang will blame me after knowing the truth, can I accept that we still have your father." ā€

"Is he qualified?" Zhou Fenghe took off his earrings and said coldly: "For his mother, Dad not only snubbed you, but also stirred up family discord, and we still have to look at his face now?

Wang Anjun covered his mouth and smiled: "I just praised you, and I became old again." No wonder people call you 'cold'. To be fair, our Zhou family does owe too much to their mother and son. Don't say that your father is dissatisfied with the old man, even I, a person with a foreign surname, don't like the old man's way of doing things. ā€

"No matter what Fengyang says, it is also the bloodline of the Zhou family......"

"That's Zhou Yang's own uselessness!" Feng He interrupted, his face like frost, "Grandpa thought about him, and it was completely for his sake that he didn't let him return to the family." I heard that Zhou Yang's congenital qi veins are occluded, and he doesn't have a spiritual root yet. If you let this kind of waste bear the halo of the son of the family, he won't be comfortable himself, right?"

"This kind of person staying in the family is not only a waste of resources, but also a waste of his own life. I think grandpa did the right thing. ā€

After hearing this, Wang Anjun pondered for a moment: "Fenghe, I find that you are doing things more and more like an old man now." Did you know that this is going to make your dad hate you even more? Okay, get out of the car with me. ā€

"So what? Did he ever like me?" Zhou Fenghe crushed the black pearl: "It's okay to let me go with you." Tell me, apart from the time you and your father got married, have you ever been close to each other in the past 20 years?"

Wang Anjun's heart was cold, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "I forgot, you are 'cold' now an adult, and you have learned to manage us, haven't you? ā€

"I—I didn't mean that. Zhou Fenghe's face was flushed, and the temperament of the frost beauty suddenly collapsed, "I just want to know if Dad loves you or not." ā€

I refused to answer. When you fall in love with someone, you will understand. Saying that, Wang Anjun opened the door and looked back: "Get out of the car with me." ā€

......

On the mountain, the water mist was hazy, and Zhou Yang and the others suddenly rained heavily halfway up the mountain, but fortunately, Xu Lili brought an emergency umbrella.

The two held an umbrella together and walked on the mountain road, and many people mistakenly thought that they were a young couple.

"Did you hear that? My uncle and aunt just now said that we were husband and wife. Xu Lili's cheeks were slightly red, and her expression was very happy, "If you seize the opportunity now and take advantage of the situation, maybe I will ......"

"Just become your spare tire?" Zhou Yang added with a smile and looked around: "You and I are more suitable for being friends, and they are very good friends." ā€

Xu Lili pursed her mouth and said, "I'm just making you look down on you? Isn't it just two years older than you? Female juniors still hold gold bricks, why are they only suitable for being good friends? Say, do you have other women? Or do you like men?"

Zhou Yang smiled: "People like me are very irresponsible, so I am not suitable to be a husband." ā€

As they spoke, the two chatted around the topic.

Xu Lili exposed her relationship history from middle school to university, and unconsciously came to Zhou Yang's mother's grave.

"Your mother is so beautiful! really, she has a good temperament. Bailu Ming, the name is also good. I'm sorry, I'm sorry Auntie, I didn't mean to call you by name, don't blame me......"

"Zhou Yang, what are you laughing at! I'm serious, your mother is really beautiful. I'm all hooked, okay?"

"It's okay, you continue. Zhou Yang put down the carton and cleaned up the weeds on both sides.

"I've always been a little fan of my mother, my mother's long song is also very good, when I was young, I was the main force of the army's art troupe, and later I met my father before leaving the army, returning to Hanzhou to get married and give birth to me. ā€

"I'll just say yes!" Xu Lili helped place the tribute, and said excitedly: "I think it's too easy for Auntie to enter the showbiz with this condition." By the way, why did you never tell me about your dad......?

"Hmm. Zhou Yang lit a candle and recalled: "My father is also in the army, and I heard my mother say that two months after I was born, he received an order from the army to leave, and later died on the battlefield of anti-terrorism. ā€

"So, you were born in a military family, what about your grandfather and grandparents?" Xu Lili asked curiously.

Zhou Yang opened a handful of incense and said, "My mother is an orphan, and I don't know the situation on my father's side...... , I just remember that they came to send money twice a few hours later, but my mother didn't ask for it. ā€

"Damn!" Xu Li hurriedly covered her mouth and bowed to the tombstone, "The people on your father's side are too inhumane!

"If it were me, I wouldn't want this stinky money. Your mother must be angry with them when she left so early!"

"Maybe. Zhou Yang took the brazier from behind the tombstone, "Since you like my mother so much, why don't you let her recognize you as a goddaughter." ā€

This sentence was originally just a joke, but I didn't expect Xu Lili to take it seriously, and she said goodbye without saying a word, saying bless herself and bless Zhou Yang on the other.

Through chatting, I learned that Xu Li's hometown has the custom of 'worshipping godmother'.

There are two specific kinds, one is to worship the living, and the other is to worship the yin.

The so-called 'yin worshipper' is to find a stranger's grave and secretly recognize relatives.

It is said that this kind of worship is better than worshipping people, worshipping yin people as godmothers, godmothers will be blessed underground, and the work will be smooth in the future, the family will be happy, and so on.

......

"And this kind of operation, do you believe it?"

After listening, Zhou Yang knelt on the side to burn paper, Xu Lili became the protagonist today, and she said happily: "Yes." I'm telling you, don't believe it, Bai Gan Ma is really spiritual. I have a cousin who has been in poor health before, and he has not been sick again since he visited his godmother. ā€

"What are you laughing at, I'm serious. Did you know that there are many myths and stories in China that are true, but they can't be explained by science yet. ā€

"I agree with that. As he spoke, Zhou Yang suddenly felt that someone was watching him from a distance, and it was Wang Anjun and Zhou Fenghe.
