Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 214 Worship
"You'll know when we get there!" Su Wenqing still didn't say anything, but closed her eyes and meditated.

Not knowing what was in the carriage behind, Su Yizhao speculated in his heart, and then found that the direction of the carriage was actually Nancheng.

After leaving the city gate, the carriage drove all the way to the outskirts of the city.

Su Wenqing's face was solemn, although there were times when she didn't like to speak in the past, it was not as solemn and dignified as it is now.

Su Yizhao opened the curtain and found that the direction of the carriage gradually became remote.

There are trees and yellow weeds along the way. It has not rained for several days, and the loess road is crushed by the wheels of the passing wheels, raising dust all over the sky.

Going forward, the road gradually narrowed, the weeds on the roadside were beaten to the ground by the frost, and the pedestrians passing by were in twos and threes until they could no longer be seen.

If he couldn't tell where he was going, Su Yizhao felt a little silly.

Although I have never actually been here, I have heard people say it.

From here, isn't it Shili Pavilion?
What is the place of Shili Pavilion? I mentioned it before. It is a cemetery, and a little further is the mass grave.

The carriage drove for another quarter of an hour, and finally arrived at the destination.

Su Yizhao got out of the carriage, and there was a desolation in front of him.

At this moment, there was a lot of sunlight, and the surrounding area was filled with mist. The tombs in front stood at the foot of the mountain, and the surroundings were silent, looking sad and weird.

"Follow me!" Su Wenqing asked Uncle Zhong to wait for them beside the carriage, and then walked ahead with a cloth bag and a food box.

Su Yizhao walked carefully on the narrow path, covered with withered grass on the side of the road.

The dew in the late autumn morning wetted the uppers of her white boots, and when she stepped on the withered grass, the soles of her shoes were soon covered with grass clippings.

Presumably it was because the carriage couldn't get in inside, so they went on foot.Seeing that Su Wenqing was not in a good mood today, Su Yizhao stopped talking.

Su Wenqing walked without saying a word, and the two of them stopped after about a cup of tea.

Here is a mountain depression, along the path twists and turns, and finally arrived at the destination.

Su Yizhao looked back and found that this place was already a dense forest. If she went back the way she came, she would probably get lost.

Turning his head and looking ahead, he found that there were two simple tombs, very close to each other.

The grounds are kept clean and weeds have been cleared around.

The tombstone is just two wooden boards, and the strange thing is that there is no inscription on them.

Su Yizhao was surprised, even if there were no descendants, wouldn't there be other relatives?At least engrave a name, right?
If it is inserted like this, it will only be a nameless lonely grave!
Without saying a word, Su Wenqing took out incense candles, paper money and oranges from the cloth bag.

Su Yizhao guessed that it was a tribute just now, so he was not surprised.

He didn't open his mouth until Su Wenqing took out the last roast chicken in the food box and put it on the plate.

"Light the incense sticks!"

Su Yizhao immediately picked up the torch and lit two pairs of joss sticks.

Su Wenqing kowtowed to the two tombs first, and then poured wine in front of the stele of one of the tombs.

He stared silently, Su Yizhao carefully observed his side face, trying to find something.

"Come and kowtow!" Su Wenqing said to Su Yizhao after getting up without further explanation.

I don't know whose tomb it is, so I kowtow.

But Su Yizhao felt that the dead were the most important, so kowtowing was fine.After kowtowing respectfully in front of the two graves, Su Wenqing motioned to kneel down and burn paper money for a while.

"This is my father's close friend, and that is his first wife." After a long while, Su Wenqing explained.

"Then why not engrave characters?" Su Yizhao couldn't help asking.

"Wait for their descendants to engrave it!" Su Wenqing's voice was a little choked.

Su Yizhao turned his head and glanced in surprise, "What about their descendants?"

After Su Wenqing was stunned for a moment, she said, "I don't know where to go!"

Su Yizhao didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, there's a reason not to engrave it, right?
After the paper money was burned, Su Wenqing said to Su Yizhao: "You go down first, my father will come right away!"

Su Yizhao can understand that there should be something to say, but he doesn't want to let himself know.

She turned around and walked in the same direction as when she came and went slowly, waiting for Su Wenqing to catch up.

Su Wenqing wiped the two tattered wooden monuments with a handkerchief, and murmured, "Wait a little longer! It's not time yet."

Su Wenqing quickly followed. After the two got into the carriage, Su Yizhao looked up at the depressed Su Wenqing, hesitant to speak.

After waiting for a while, Su Yizhao said: "Father, why haven't you visited Auntie for so many years?"

This was the first time she asked. Before, she thought that the scumbag father might have forgotten their mother and daughter, so she didn't want to ask more.

But how did Su Wenqing and the others know her birth date?
Su Wenqing was taken aback by Su Yizhao's question, and then said: "Actually, my father didn't even know that your aunt gave birth to you."

Then Su Wenqing began to tell the story of his acquaintance with Wen Yu. In fact, the plot is very vulgar.

Back then, Su Wenqing was suppressed by her family to end the scientific examination, so she returned to her ancestral home.

It just so happened that Wen Yu's family was in decline at that time, so he was exiled outside, deceived by others, and sold to Ren Yazi.

Wen Yu looks good!That Ren Yazi wanted to sell him to a brothel, where would Wen Yu be willing to follow?

So he ran out while his teeth were dozing off.

After Ren Yazi found out, he chased after the mountain with his thugs, and happened to meet Su Wenqing in Fangshi, and what happened after that must be a hero saving the beauty.

He redeemed Wen Yu's body, but during the end of the game, the old master disciplined him severely, so he didn't dare to take him back to the mansion.So I bought another small yard and placed it outside.

The two have been together for more than a month. Originally, they were in love with each other, and the days were very sweet.

But who would have expected that one day Wen Yu would learn from Su Wenqing that he had married, so he would make a fuss.

"Your aunt has a strong temper, and she had a big fight with me. I was also angry at the time, so I didn't go to see her for several days, thinking that she was a little tempered, and the anger disappeared after a few days. But after a few days, When I went back to the courtyard, I found that it was already empty.”

Su Wenqing sighed as she spoke, "How did I know that she was pregnant? Since then, there has been no news of her. Who would have thought that she would go to Jiangnan with only a few pockets while she was pregnant?"

Su Yizhao understood, so Wen Yu left, and Su Wenqing didn't look for it anymore.

It's not easy to find someone, and as time goes by, Su Wenqing might have forgotten about Wen Yu, after all, the time we get along is short.

"Then how do you know where my aunt and I are?" Su Yizhao asked.

"Of course she wrote to me. At that time, her health was getting worse and worse. Maybe she thought that she would die soon and leave you to suffer alone in this world. So she wrote to me and told you about your situation."

Then Su Wenqing was full of emotion, saying that Wen Yu's temper was too twisted, and she couldn't forgive him for so many years.

If she hadn't died of illness, she probably wouldn't want to tell Su Wenqing that he still had a son living outside.
