After returning to the countryside to farm, I brought the whole village to become rich

Chapter 272 Shen Kuan

set off firecrackers;

Grandpa Shen led everyone to bow three times in front of the tomb, and the memorial service was over.

The candle on the tombstone was only half burned, and the incense burned behind the grave had not yet burned out;

Shen Qiuqiu asked Shen Xiu to stay and watch the incense. After all the incense candles and incense burned, he checked to make sure there was no source of fire before leaving;

Next, the group packed up their things and went to worship at another grave;

It's not far away, we'll be there in two or three minutes.

Compared to the previous tombs, this tomb is a little more deserted;

The tombstone is engraved with the tomb of loving father Shen Kuan;

Born on June 7, 1972, therefore September 5, 1999;

Their son, Shen Jiashu, and their daughter, Shen Qiuqiu, stand respectfully;

Nothing else.

The solitary tombstone with only a few inscriptions reflects the short life of the tomb owner.

This is the tomb of Shen Qiuqiu's father; the tombstone was just erected a few years ago.

Sons can fulfill their filial piety, but there is no saying that elders should fulfill their filial piety to younger generations;

Therefore, according to custom, elders cannot erect monuments for younger generations.

In the past few years, Shen Kuan's grave had always been without a monument;

It wasn't until Shen Qiuqiu went to college and saved some savings by working part-time jobs that he built a tombstone for his father.

On the day when the monument was erected, grandma cried heartbrokenly in front of the tombstone, and grandpa also had red eyes...

The old couple's long-cherished wish finally came true.

Now when I look at this tombstone, I still have all kinds of feelings rushing through my heart.

"Son, Mom is here to see you again..."

Grandma Shen wiped the dust off the tombstone with her sleeves, and her eyes became red as she spoke.

Shen Qiuqiu and Shen Jiashu looked at each other and silently began to weed the grave.

At the time of Shen Kuan's accident, Shen Qiuqiu was less than seven years old, and Shen Jiashu was still a baby who couldn't remember anything;

In their hearts, the memory of their father is very vague, with almost no impression, and they rarely even think of it;

But every time I think about it, I still feel filled with emotion;

I will still feel sad and have regrets.

When he was a child, Shen Kuan would let Shen Qiuqiu ride on his neck and ask her to reach for the fruits on the trees;

When she was about to reach the fruit, Shen Kuan accidentally shook it. Shen Qiuqiu screamed in fright, and quickly hugged her father's big head. After reacting, the father and daughter laughed together.

This is Shen Qiuqiu's only remaining impression of his father, and it is also a good time that can never be returned...

Grandpa Shen stared at the tombstone in trance for a long time, sighed, lit a cigarette and put it on the tombstone.

After clearing away the weeds, Grandma Shen laid out the tributes and called the siblings over to burn paper;

The siblings obeyed and silently squatted in front of the grave to burn paper;

Grandma Shen was also squatting aside, mumbling something;

"Shen Kuan, your daughter-in-law gave you money to spend. Come and collect the money."

After repeating this for several times, the old lady began to recite to her son's tombstone;

"Son, Xiaohua is successful now. She has become her own boss and made a lot of money. She has also found a partner. The young man seems to be someone who can make a living. If they can succeed, they will get married next year. You must wish Xiaohua everything goes well and she has a lot of money. Enter, be safe;

Xiaoshu is about to take the college entrance examination. This is a big event for our family. You must protect him from getting into a good college so that he can honor the ancestors of the old Shen family;

Also, my family is going to build a new house soon; Mom still remembers that you said before that you would build a big house for your parents so that they can enjoy happiness..."

As she spoke, the old lady choked up;

"Son, you are so cruel. You left early and left our whole family, old and young...

Zhang Cuifen, that damned Sangmenxing, will have her retribution, and she will not have a good death..."

Speaking of sadness, Grandma Shen couldn't help but burst into tears, crying and cursing at the same time;

Hearing her scolding so fiercely, Song Na couldn't help but be curious, and asked Shen Qiuqiu beside her in a low voice, "Sister, who is Zhang Cuifen?"

Shen Qiuqiu shook his head and said nothing. Zhang Cuifen is Shen Qiuqiu's mother. After Shen Kuan's accident, she secretly took the family's money and valuables and ran away, and there has been no news to this day;

Grandpa Shen went to her parents' house several times to find her, but she was told that she didn't know anything and had a very bad attitude. In the end, Grandpa Shen was not even allowed to come in;

Grandpa Shen called the police, and the two families fell out completely, and they broke off their relationship from then on.

Because of these things, the old couple hated Zhang Cuifen enough;

Shen Qiuqiu was still young at that time and didn't understand what was happening, and would cry to find her parents;

Later, she gradually became wiser and learned about what Zhang Cuifen had done from her neighbors. Shen Qiuqiu never mentioned this person at home again;

Once upon a time, Shen Qiuqiu, like her grandparents, was full of resentment towards Zhang Cuifen;

As time goes by, those obsessions and resentments slowly fade away;

It’s not forgiveness, it’s just letting go;

For her now, Zhang Cuifen is just an insignificant stranger.

Grandpa Shen on the side also darkened when he heard Zhang Cuifen's name;

Hearing the old woman's scolding getting more and more outrageous, he couldn't help but stop her, "Okay, I've been here for many years, and the children are here, why are you talking about this?"

"Don't talk about her anymore, it's bad luck." Grandma Shen wiped her tears, "Son, you should be good down there, don't worry about us, we are living a good life; if you don't have enough money down here, just ask your mother for help. It’s a dream, mom will burn it for you.”

After burning the paper money;

Shen Qiuqiu and Shen Jiashu knelt down in front of the tombstone and kowtowed three times respectfully.

Grandma Shen stood aside and watched with relief on her face.

After the ceremony was completed, Grandpa Shen and the others packed up and went down the mountain;

Shen Qiuqiu and Shen Jiashu stayed, planning to wait until the incense candles were burned out before leaving;

If a source of fire is left and a forest fire is caused, it is not a trivial matter.

The siblings found a shady place to sit down and rest;

Shen Jiashu suddenly asked, "Sister, do you hate her?"

Shen Qiuqiu was stunned for a while before she realized who this "she" was referring to;

It seemed that he still cared about what grandma just scolded.

Shen Qiuqiu did not answer, but asked: "What do you think?"

"It's not that I hate her, I just feel a little resentful. Anyway, I don't like her and I will never recognize her."

Shen Jiashu thought for a while and then said: "There is something I haven't told you. Last time Brother Cheng went to pick me up at the school gate, many classmates saw it; his car seemed to be quite expensive, and then there were rumors in the school that our family was very expensive. rich;

I explained to them that it was not our car, but your boyfriend’s; they also said that my sister was married to a rich man...

They also found out your Maitian Video account. Now it is said that our family is rich and I am famous in school. "

Shen Qiuqiu was puzzled, "Tell me the key points."

"A few days ago, a second-year high school classmate came to me, named Zhang Jing; he said that his father and my mother are cousins, his father is my cousin, and he is my cousin.

That's amazing, do you think this is the so-called poverty in the downtown area with no one asking, and the wealth in the mountains with distant relatives?

By the way, he also said... that she works in other provinces and occasionally calls home to ask if I want to contact her. "

Shen Qiuqiu frowned slightly, "What did you say?"

"Hmph." Shen Jiashu raised his head proudly, "What are you talking about? I told him to get out of here."

Shen Qiuqiu couldn't help but laugh;

"Well, ignore him. If he comes to you again, tell your class teacher and let him handle it. The college entrance examination is coming soon, and it is your most important time now. Don't delay your studies for these things."

Shen Qiuqiu still felt that something was wrong, and planned to call their class teacher later to discuss the matter.

She then told Shen Jiashu, "By the way, don't tell your grandparents about this, lest they get angry again."

"I know, I'm not stupid."
