Chapter 126: Going to the Grave
"Absolutely." Xie Yichen thought for a while and said, "After the Midyear Festival, I will accompany you to the town to have a look." ”
Tomorrow is the Midyear Festival, according to the customs of Xiliang, you can't go out on this day, otherwise you will provoke ghosts and gods, and even the private school will have a day off.
In this regard, Xie Yanshi has no opinion.
"Then will you go to your father's grave tomorrow?" Her cloudy eyes twitched and asked.
Xie Yichen nodded.
It was his parents, and he couldn't afford not to go.
"You can also prepare a portion of the ancestor's sacrifice." Xie Yan smiled and said with a smile, "Anyway, you have the blood of the Xie family in your body. ”
Xie Yichen did not refuse.
Filial piety to the ancestors should be done, as long as things don't go into the pockets of the Xie family's group of jackals, tigers and leopards.
"It's fine." He thought for a moment and said.
Seeing that he agreed, Xie Yan's wrinkled old face smiled into a blooming chrysanthemum.
"That's a good boy!" Suddenly, she changed her words, "By the way, I heard that Changge went to Qi Mansion today?" ”
I have to say that the news of the Xie family is well-informed.
Not many people know about Shen Changge's going to Qi Mansion, but they know it clearly, could it be that the Xie family has eyeliner in the town?
Xie Yichen let out a "hmm".
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Xie Yanshi was a little unhappy: "Look at you, I just asked casually, and I didn't want you to take us to play." ”
"Alright, I'll go home and rest. My old waist, if I don't rest well, it will break. ”
She said as she stood up with her waist propped up.
Seeing this, Xie Yichen hurriedly stepped forward to open the door curtain for her.
Although he hates this woman, no matter what, she is his own grandmother.
If it is too stiff, it is not a good thing for either himself or Xiaobao.
Especially Xiaobao, he must be clean, and he must not have any stains on his body!
Xie Yanshi was not polite, and walked out with his old waist in his arms.
As soon as he got out of the gate, Wang, who was hiding on the side, slipped out from behind the haystack.
She looked left and right for a while, and saw that there was no one around, so she asked mysteriously, "Mother, how is it?" Did you see the stuff they bought? ”
Shen Changge came back from pulling a cart of things from the town, how could such a big thing be hidden from her ears.
As soon as he heard the news, Wang immediately went home and told Xie Yan.
Xie Yan's waist was no longer supported, and he sneered at his neck: "That woman is not at home, and the things are estimated to have been taken to the Chen family a long time ago." ”
"The dead old woman of the Chen family, I don't know how many things she is greedy for." When Wang heard this, he scolded viciously, "Mother, why don't you go directly to Chen's house and grab the things!" ”
"A few days ago, Mrs. Li introduced a girl to Dalong again, and I think there is hope this time."
That girl is a pockmark, although she is a little ugly, but her body is still strong, and it should not be a problem to have a child.
Xie Yanshi glanced at her with disdain, and asked with a sneer: "The first few times we went to get things, did we take advantage of the slightest advantage?" ”
Wang shook his head.
Not to mention taking advantage, it's already good to be able to get out of the way.
Until now, Erhu's legs were a little weak when he heard the woman's name.
"Isn't that the end of it?" Xie Yanshi sneered, "I went to the town to see the Ninth Master a few days ago, and he gave me a way. Since it doesn't work for the hard ones, let's come for the soft ones. ”
"No, as soon as I asked the wild seed to take me to the town to see a doctor, he immediately agreed."
When Wang heard this, he couldn't help but admire the five-body throw.
I have to say that ginger is still old and spicy.
"But if you don't have money, how can Dalong and Erhu get married?" She asked, a little uneasy.
"Don't rush, take your time." Xie Yanshi patted her on the shoulder, and there was an evil light in his cloudy eyes.
Xie Yichen is her grandson.
The Shen family's money is naturally all hers!
Shen Changge didn't know that his hard-earned money was remembered like this.
When she came back from Mrs. Chen's house, she went into the utility room.
"You're back?" Xie Yichen glanced up at her and asked with a smile, "I thought that Aunt Chen could drag you to talk until dark." ”
Shen Changge smiled: "If we continue to talk, my voice will be hoarse." ”
She stepped forward and saw that he had already written a thin wad of paper.
I have to say that his words are just good-looking.
The dragon flies and the phoenix dances, vigorous and powerful, and his weak appearance is like two people.
"Written so fast?" She picked one up and admired it earnestly.
Xie Yichen smiled: "Hurry up and finish writing, so that you can go to the store to settle the money." ”
"And the owner said that as long as this book is written, I will be given the job of copying books in the future."
Not to mention the hard work of copying books, the wages are still low, but even so, there are still many poor scholars rushing to do this work.
First, you can have an income, and secondly, you can read books for free.
"You don't have to be in a hurry." Shen Changge smiled, "We are not short of money now. ”
"It's not short, but I still want to make more." Xie Yichen looked at her with a smile, his eyes surging with a strange luster, "I don't want you to work so hard." ”
He wants to make money, he doesn't want to have a reputation for eating soft rice.
In fact, Shen Changge didn't feel that making money was hard, but felt that it was a kind of enjoyment.
Watching the waist bag bulge a little bit, it felt like eating a big meal, it was really refreshing.
"By the way, lady, Xie Yan's came over just now." Xie Yichen frowned slightly, "She came for two things, one is for me to accompany her to the town to see a doctor, and the other is for me to prepare a sacrifice for tomorrow." ”
"I agreed, lady, you won't blame me, right?"
If it had been changed to before, the original owner would have slapped him and thrown him out of the door by the collar.
But now, Shen Changge smiled lightly: "What's to blame for this, anyway, we had to prepare sacrifices." ”
"But she asked you to accompany her to town, did she want you to pay for the medical bills?"
Xie Yichen frowned slightly: "But I don't want to dig it." ”
He didn't want to pay for it, but he couldn't refuse.
"It's okay, I'll go with her!" Shen Changge smiled evilly, "You can copy books at home with peace of mind, just leave this kind of thing to me." ”
"Alright, don't write either. I will prepare the sacrifice, and you will come and help me. Tomorrow I will go to my mother's grave first, and then I will go to your ancestral grave. ”
Xie Yichen nodded.
In fact, no matter the order, as long as he can go, he will be content.
The couple worked hard for most of the day, and finally got everything ready.
The customs of the Western Liang Kingdom, the tomb of the Midyear Festival are all in the evening.
Xiaobao was young, and Shen Changge was afraid that something dirty would startle him, so he put him at Mrs. Chen's house.
After everything was arranged, she and Xie Yichen carried the offerings, and then walked towards the City God Temple.
Shen Yuniang's grave is behind the City God Temple, a small earthen bag.
Xie Yichen stepped forward to remove the surrounding weeds, and then set the offerings away.
For Shen Yuniang, Shen Changge did not have any impression.
After she kowtowed, she followed Xie Yichen to the ancestral grave of the Xie family.
I thought it was very late, but how did I know that the ancestral tomb of the Xie family was empty.
Not to mention the sacrifice, there is not even a pillar of incense.
Xie Yichen took Shen Changge's hand and came to a small tomb.
"This is my mom and dad." His eyes were slightly red, and he said in a hoarse voice.
When Shen Changge heard this, he knelt down and kowtowed: "Dad, mother, I used to be a bastard who bullied Ah Chen and Xiaobao. If I abuse them again, you will come to me and settle the score. ”
Xie Yichen couldn't help but have a black line.
This girl dares to say anything, doesn't she know that today is the day when the ghost door is wide open?
What she says, the spirits of the dead will surely hear.
In case one day she really makes a mistake, she is not afraid of being really entangled by the undead?
He opened his mouth, but said nothing.
After the couple set up the offerings, they kowtowed to the ancestors of the Xie family one by one before leaving.
As soon as the two of them left on their front feet, the big dragon and the two tigers came.
As soon as they saw those sacrificial mouths, the brothers' eyes lit up.
"Grandma is really capable!" Looking at those sumptuous sacrifices, Xie Dalong's saliva flowed all over the ground, "These chickens, ducks, and fish meat are estimated to cost a lot of money." ”
Xie Erhu looked at him and looked at him with some uncertainty: "Big brother, do we really want to take these sacrifices back?" After all, this is for the ancestors. ”
He was not a good man, but he was afraid that his ancestors would knock on his door in the middle of the night.
"The ancestors have already eaten, and we are cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks for them." Xie Dalong didn't think so, and directly started to clean up the sacrifices on the ground.
Seeing him do it, Xie Erhu also had the courage to start helping.
After the brothers had put the offerings in baskets, they hurried home.
Tonight, they can finally fight tooth sacrifices.
