Yangguan Town to Tangjiawan is not very far, only six or seven miles of road, there was no road through before, only a mud road, a few years ago, the above allocated money down, built a simple road, finally opened to traffic, now Tang Chengxuan is walking on this road.

However, the pavement of the highway is very bad, there are holes and cracks everywhere, it seems to be an old antique from decades ago, Tang Chengxuan shook his head, as the so-called mountain is high and the emperor is far away, no matter how good the policy above is, it is not surprising that it has encountered those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, coupled with black-hearted contractors, resulting in the current situation.

There has never been a shortage of corrupt officials in Huaxia, in this ancient and beautiful land, corrupt officials are rampant and domineering, and the common people are oppressed and miserable, so a clean official like Bao Qingtian will be praised by people through the ages.

Not far out of Yangguan Town, there was a roar of motorcycles behind him, Tang Chengxuan hurriedly got out of the way, a motorcycle drove to Tang Chengxuan's side, stopped, a young man on the motorcycle, supported the ground with his right foot, stabilized the motorcycle, and turned his head sideways to look, Tang Chengxuan was a little strange, and he also turned his head to look, only to find that it was an acquaintance.

Most of the households in Tangjiawan are surnamed Tang, and it is said that they used to be an ancestor, but it is not surprising that according to the tradition of the Chinese country for thousands of years, most of the people of the same clan and surname live together, so in ancient times, the power of the clan was very strong.

Tangjiawan households, about more than 100, including about 90 surnamed Tang, legend has it that there was a patriarch before, and preserved hundreds of years ago, the ancestral hall and genealogy that have been handed down, a large area around Tangjiawan is the land of the Tang family, in the entire Qinghe County, are a large number of large households, but it is a pity that a few decades ago, in a series of various movements, was destroyed and slack, and now there are only some elderly people, still vaguely remember the things of the year.

In fact, Tang Chengxuan's name is taken according to the ranking in the genealogy, but today's Tang family is scattered in the surrounding four or five villages, and many have moved to the town or city, most of them are out of the five suits, according to the traditional saying, those within the five suits are relatives, and those outside the five suits are just the same surname, and this man riding a motorcycle is a relative of Tang Chengxuan within five suits.

This man on a motorcycle is named Tang Chenggang, his grandfather and Tang Chengxuan's grandfather are cousins, and their fathers are brothers, so according to this relationship, Tang Chengxuan and Tang Chenggang both belong to the fourth generation, and the two are also cousins.

Tang Chenggang is in his early Chinese New Year's Eve, and when Tang Chengxuan's parents were still there, Tang Chengxuan often returned to Tangjiawan, especially when his grandfather and grandmother were still alive, so he was still familiar with some of his peers in Tangjiawan.

Looking carefully at the man on a motorcycle next to him, Tang Chengxuan only felt quite familiar, but he couldn't remember the name for a while, but Tang Chenggang recognized him first, and said with a smile: "Who did I say, it turned out to be Chengxuan, I just saw you buying things in the store, I felt as if it was you, I haven't seen you for several years, do you still recognize who I am?"

After thinking about it carefully for a long time, Tang Chengxuan still couldn't remember which one it was, so he had to smile awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, it looks very familiar, but I can't remember it for a while." ”

Tang Chenggang smiled very understandingly, and said: "I am your brother Chenggang, I live under the slope of your old house, you haven't been back to your hometown for several years, no wonder you don't know anyone anymore." ”

Hearing Tang Chenggang say this, Tang Chengxuan quickly remembered that Tang Chenggang's home is not far from Tang Chengxuan's uncle Tang Jianguo, only a few dozen meters away, under a small slope, there are two jujube trees in front of his house, when Tang Chengxuan was young, he often went to his door to eat dates with Tang Chenghai, the lobby brother of his uncle's house.

Tang Chenggang's mother is very kind, every time she sees them beating dates, not only does she not scold them, but she always looks at them with a smile, and sometimes she helps them beat with a bamboo pole, Tang Chengxuan is very impressed by the aunt with a round face and a smile on her face.

"It turned out to be Brother Chenggang, I didn't think about it for a while, I'm really sorry, by the way, my uncle and aunt are okay?" Tang Chengxuan said.

"The old couple's body is still tough. Tang Chenggang nodded, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the black plastic bag that Tang Chengxuan was carrying, and asked, "Chengxuan, are you going back to the grave?"

Tang Chengxuan said: "Yes, I studied in other places a few years ago, and then worked in other places, and I haven't gone home to go to the grave for several years. ”

Tang Chenggang patted the back seat of the motorcycle and said with a smile: "That's right, I'm going home too, by the way, I'll take you with me, you are alone, carrying so many things, you have to walk for a long time." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Tang Chengxuan did not refuse Tang Chenggang's kindness, said thank you, and sat down.

The motorcycle drove very fast, although the road surface was very poor, the road was inevitably bumpy, and it didn't take long to arrive at Tangjiawan, Tang Chenggang rode the motorcycle, turned two corners, and stopped at the door of his house, and said: "Chengxuan, you come all the way over, go to my house to rest first, drink saliva and then go." ”

Tang Chengxuan thought that he had not prepared anything today, so he came to the door with his empty hands, which was too unusual, so he hurriedly excused himself, and while the two of them were talking, an elderly woman walked out of the courtyard and asked, "Chenggang, who is this young man, he looks quite familiar." ”

Tang Chenggang said: "Mom, this is Chengxuan from the uncle's family in the city, and he often came to play when he was a child." ”

The old woman looked at Tang Chengxuan for a moment, suddenly recognized him, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's Chengxuan, it's all grown so big, my aunt doesn't dare to recognize it, you haven't been back for several years, if you walk on the street, you won't recognize it at all." ”

Tang Chengxuan hurriedly smiled and said: "Aunt, I am Chengxuan, you are in good health, you have been going to school in other places for the past few years, and then you worked in other places, and you have no chance to come back, you happen to be at home this year, so you came to give your ancestors a grave." ”

The old woman said, "Thanks to you, my health is fine, Chengxuan, come in and sit down for a while, drink saliva and then go." ”

Tang Chengxuan: "Auntie, no need, I'd better go and get down to business first." ”

The old woman persuaded again and again, but seeing that Tang Chengxuan insisted on refusing, she had to give up and said, "Won't there be a place to eat later?" Chengxuan, why don't you just eat at my house at noon and go back after a mouthful of food?"

Tang Chengxuan's face froze, shook his head, and said: "No need, aunt, there are still some urgent matters to deal with in the afternoon, and when I finish the grave, I will go back to the city directly, and when I am free next time, I will eat at your house." ”

After speaking, Tang Chengxuan turned around and left, walked out of the distance, and heard Tang Chenggang and his mother standing at the door talking: "What his uncle did was too careless, a good child, and now he is in trouble with his family."

A few people next door also came out, everyone gathered together, and whispered, but Tang Chengxuan was now a cultivator at the fifth level of the Qi cultivation period, and his ears and eyes were clear, they thought that Tang Chengxuan had gone far away and couldn't hear it, but in fact, what they said, Tang Chengxuan could hear it clearly.

Although he knew what they were talking about, Tang Chengxuan didn't bother to pay attention to it, there was a lot of trouble back then, as the saying goes, good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, the people around Tangjiawan have more or less understanding of the grievances and grievances of Tang Chengxuan and his uncle's family, but it's not a matter of his own family, but it's not easy to intervene much, just pointing fingers behind his back.

Passing through the dirt road on the streets of Tangjiawan, Tang Chengxuan came to the field behind Tangjiawan, the ancestral tomb of the Tang family, on a hill more than three miles away, where the Tang family is buried, the ancestors of generations, Tang Chengxuan's parents, are also buried here.

First came to the grave of grandpa and grandma, only to see that there were already some traces of paper money burned, and some pieces of firecrackers, Tang Chengxuan estimated that this was the reason why the uncle's family had come, they were close to each other, and they lived in the old house before.

Tang Chengxuan deliberately bypassed there just now, did not pass by the door, just glanced at it from a distance, the original old house has been demolished, and a four-story building has been built on the site of the old house.

However, as long as he thinks of the money for repairing the building, Tang Chengxuan's heart always has a burst of unbearable anger, this money is the uncle Tang Jianguo and his wife, who were deceived from Tang Chengxuan, it is the compensation and insurance of Tang Chengxuan's parents, and some other things have been deceived by Tang Jianguo and his wife, which is also the fundamental reason why Tang Chengxuan has always refused to forgive Tang Jianguo.

took out a part of the firecrackers and set them off in front of the graves of grandpa and grandma, Tang Chengxuan took out some paper money and lit it, and after burning, he stood silently for a while and left here.

The grave of Tang Chengxuan's parents is not far away, there are traces of memorial in front of the grave, the grass on the grave has been overgrown, there are two cypress trees in front of the grave, which were planted by Tang Chengxuan himself, and now there are more than one person high, Tang Chengxuan took out the remaining firecrackers and lit them, and burned all the paper money.

Standing in front of his parents' graves, Tang Chengxuan said silently in his heart: "Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my little sister, let her grow up happily, and let her marry a good family in the future, as long as I live for a day, I will never let others bully her." ”

Sitting in front of his parents' grave for a long time, telling his experiences in the past few years, Tang Chengxuan only felt a lot more relaxed, in the past few years, Tang Chengxuan has been alone, crawling in this society, has experienced too many things, and many things can not be found to be confided in, so he can only be buried deep in his heart.

After talking to his heart for a long time, Tang Chengxuan saw that it was not early, so he stood up and left here.

Walking to the entrance of Tangjiawan Village, Tang Chengxuan suddenly saw that there were two people standing in front of him, a man and a woman, the man was tall, it was Tang Chengxuan's lobby brother Tang Chenghai, the woman was wearing fashionable clothes, dressed very trendy, but Tang Chengxuan didn't know him, but looking at the appearance of the two people, it should be husband and wife.
