A few days before the Chinese New Year, the adults of the Lu family decided to take a few little ones to visit the tomb together.

On the day of the tomb, the sky was clear and not very cold, but the whole family still brought a few more thick clothes, after all, they went into the mountains.

The family set off, went up the back mountain, and walked up the sheep intestine path on the side of the mountain. Along the way, the bamboo leaves are swaying, although it is winter, the scenery is still good, and wild bees occasionally fly.

Lu Shikai was held by the second uncle, he kept stretching out his head to look at the surrounding environment, he looked very curious, Lu Xian'er was held by Grandma Shen Xinlan, Lu Shijun was held by Abba, Abba's big hand was very warm, Lu Shijun's face was red and a little shy, he felt that he was already so big, and he was a little embarrassed to ask Abba to hold his hand, but Abba was very busy with medical treatment, and he didn't have much time to play with himself, so he was really reluctant to let go of Abba's hand, hesitated for a while, and let his father hold his hand and walk forward.

Lu Xian'er came to sweep the tomb for the first time, looking at the surrounding scenery, Lu Xian'er also felt very strange, this mountain is very quiet, occasionally with unknown bird calls, over two mountains, and walked a sheep intestine trail.

In front of you is an open field, which makes people shine, surrounded by a little leaf yellow bamboo, there are several lonely graves in the middle, all kinds of trees are planted separately, there are apple trees, pomegranate trees, and begonia trees when you look closely, but the branches are bare, but there are some green plants that are still a little green, and there are individual white sculptures placed on the side of the green plants, which are very interesting to each other, and every child likes the scenery of this place very much, and it is indeed very beautiful to be taken care of artificially.
