Rebirth begins with the collapse of the dowry

Chapter 122 122 [The best person in the previous life]

Xingshu Terrace!
Xiaojiang Village is a mountain depression with a relatively high altitude.

There is an ancestral tomb of the Chen family that is relatively "recent".

Grandpa Chen Yang and his grandma are buried in the ancestral grave.

That is, the parents of grandfather Chen Jingwen and their elder brother three.

Because of this.

This tomb is also the last stop for Chen Yang and the others to go to the grave to burn paper every year.

And even if someone is absent, lagging behind, or dividing up the work, they have to obediently reappear when they arrive at this ancestral grave.

You even have to put away your smiling face completely and treat it very seriously.

Especially those dolls who chased and slapped along the way and only cared about firing cannons.

Anyone who dares to put on a gesture of indifference will immediately be reprimanded by uncles and fathers.

In Chen Yang's view.

This is actually a kind of eccentricity.

Because the solemnity of the uncle and the others will only be revealed when facing this grave.

Moreover.

All the way down to pay homage.

Almost everyone seems to have discussed it.

In the plastic bags that each held in their hands, they all left the most ghost paper and firecrackers for this ancestral grave.

It was like this when Chen Yang was young, and it is like this now.

This "eccentric inheritance" is estimated to continue for some time.

Until grandparents died.

When Chen Yang arrived at the last ancestral grave covered in sweat.

A lot of people have gathered here.

One of them was the first time Chen Yang saw him today. When he left home, this person hadn't appeared yet.

His name is statement.

A young man who looked about the same age as Fade Chen.

In Chen Yang's impression.

The statement is the second grandson of the second master Chen Detai.

in the past.

Chen Yang and Chen Chen didn't communicate much with each other as cousins.

There is no contact throughout the year.

But this did not prevent Chen Yang from being deeply impressed by the statement.

no way.

Unlike his previous life, he was an unknown junior in the Chen family from the beginning to the end.

Statement is the most outstanding junior of the Chen family, and can even be said to be the best of the three generations of the entire Chen family.

If it is said that Chen Juan is the first junior among the direct descendants of her grandfather to be admitted to university soon.

That statement was the first junior in the entire Chen family to be admitted to university.

And actually.

He is now a college student.

I am a sophomore.

And the academic performance is very good.

It is one of the top ten universities in China, and it is a college student.

This gold content is very sufficient.

Just that.

It was Chen Yang and his cousins ​​who couldn't be compared.

Chen Yang was not particularly clear about the situation after graduating from university.

After all, they are just cousins.

Usually there is no contact.

He only knew that after graduating from the statement, he joined a very good company, and soon became successful.

An annual salary of one million is all within reach.

The girlfriend is also from a big city.

Later, he simply settled down in a big city.

Take his parents over.

It is no longer that I will come back to the grave to burn paper at the end of every year.

to be honest.

Chen Yang in his previous life was very envious of the statement.

I think the latter is a proper winner in life.

But at the same time he knew.

It is stated that in order to get out of the poor mountain valley and stay away from the backward and poor Northwest, it also paid a huge price.

Chen stated that his family was poor when he was a child, and sometimes he couldn’t even eat enough to eat. During school, he often wore single clothes for the winter.

But no matter how difficult the conditions were, he did not give up studying, but worked harder.

This is the reason behind the success and fame.

In the statement, it actually perfectly explained the principle of "bitterness first, sweetness later".

and so.

Not only in Chen Yang's heart, the statement is the best person in the Chen family, but in everyone's heart, it's the same.

Chen Yang just didn't expect it.

The first meeting between Chen and Chen in this life was at Xingshutai's ancestral grave.

"Statement, why didn't I see you just now?"

Chen Yang took the initiative to say hello.

From the point of view of age, he is 3 years older than the report, and he is his cousin.

"Hey, brother Yang, I have diarrhea in the morning"

Hearing Chen Yang take the initiative to say hello.

The statement also hastily turned around and smiled.

He is a very optimistic and easy-going young man.

He didn't have the aloofness of the legendary Xueba.

At least when facing the Chen family, no one has seen it.

"When did you come back, you turned white?"

Chen Yang walked over to show his acquaintance, and patted Chen on the shoulder to ask.

As far as he knew, the place where he went to university was in the south, where the climate and environment were relatively good.

Been there for a long time.

Skin changes.

This is really true in the statement.

Chen Yang was more or less impressed by the statement he made before going to university.

At that time, the skin was dark and yellow.

Unlike now, it seems to show that a layer of collagen has been regenerated.

"Hey, what's white, it's not bad if it's not black, I came back on the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month"

Chen Chen helped Chen Yang pat the dust off his butt, and answered with a smile.

He was also somewhat surprised at the moment.

Because in the impression.

Chen Yang's cousin has always been taciturn, and he hasn't talked to him much in the past few years.

What happened this year.

It feels like a different person suddenly.

Oh, that's right.

It might have something to do with money.

It is said that his cousin got rich this year.

thought here.

The statement couldn't help but clenched his fist.

In fact, he also likes money very much, and he especially wants to make money.

From childhood to adulthood, I have suffered so much and worked hard to learn.

I just want to learn skills one day and turn them into money.

In this way, he won't have to live the hard life when he was a child, and his parents don't have to stay in the poor mountain ditch, facing the loess and the sky.

Sufficient food and clothing and thinking**!

He stated that he has no great ideals and ambitions.

Changing the status quo of the family is the most steadfast dream since childhood, and it can also be said to be the goal.

……

The memorial ceremony for the last ancestral tomb is over, on the way back.

Chen Yang chatted with Chen Chen a lot.

For example, Chen Yang asked and stated what major he studied in university, and whether he planned to return to Dongchuan Province and Haishi for development in the future, or stay in the big city where he studied in the south.

Another example is the statement asking Chen Yang, how did he think of starting a financial company, and what is the future development direction of Xinze Finance Company.

In short, the two were talking and laughing, and in the eyes of others, they seemed to be very familiar with each other.

"Oh, I'm afraid it will not be easy for these two boys in the future"

This is the emotion expressed by the fourth father Chen Dequan.

The fourth father, Chen Dequan, is the only educated person among his father and his brothers, who has attended junior high school.

When Chen Yang was young, his fourth father was the teacher of Xiaojiang Village Elementary School.

It's just been a few years.

Village primary schools were gradually banned.

The fourth dad's teaching ability is not good enough to be dispatched to the township primary school.

In the end, he went home and started farming.

"Yes, one is a famous college student, and the other is doing well in business, with an annual income of hundreds of thousands, but relatively speaking, I am more optimistic about the statement."

Chen Dejun immediately nodded.

The reason why he is not very optimistic about Chen Yang is that he thinks that once young people have money in their hands too early, they are likely to go astray, toss around, and soon turn upside down.

Especially young people without much culture.

It's not that he has any prejudice against Chen Yang from the bottom of his heart.

After all, I really want to talk about it.

The relationship between him and Chen Yang is obviously closer.

"Let's keep the phone number with each other. You are a college student, educated, and have a high vision. I can ask you for advice on any problems I encounter in starting a company in the future."

Chen Yang really wanted to get closer to the statement.

It doesn't have to be a statement.

I just feel that there is no harm in getting closer to someone who is such an outstanding person.

What he just said was not all prevarication.

In the future, I might really have to consult with Chen about starting a company.

One must have self-knowledge and awe.

He, Chen Yang, was able to set up a Xinze Finance Company in Haishi.

Not necessarily in those big cities.

This is the most striking proof.

***
The busiest time of Chinese New Year is New Year's Eve.

Especially a big family like the Chen family with many people.

Everyone gathers together to worship the elders, have a New Year's Eve dinner, set off firecrackers, play a little gambling, drink a little wine and so on.

That was real joy.

All the men, women and children of the Chen family gathered together.

There are fifty or sixty of them.

Seven o'clock in the evening.

One by one.

Soon they all came to Chen Deyuan's house.

This is the same as in previous years.

After all, getting married now depends on age and seniority.

No one can compare with Chen Yang's grandfather, Chen Jingwen.

That is to say, the little dad's house is spacious enough.

In addition to the three living cave dwellings, several new south houses were built last year.

Otherwise, with so many people rushing all at once, I don't know where to receive them.

Worship is full of seriousness and cultural undertones.

Several old men and women were sitting on the kang.

Father and his generation stand in a row.

Chen Yang and his generation stood in a row.

The generation of Chen Yang's nephew will fight again.

According to the order of seniority, kowtow to the old people in turn.

This custom has existed since Chen Yang was born.

It looks cumbersome and feudal.

But actually.

Chen Yang recognized that this custom would continue.

After a few years, this custom was abolished.

But the family etiquette is completely messed up.

The younger generation does not greet the elders when they see them, but just concentrates on playing with their mobile phones.

This behavior abounds.

It looks really angry.

People's hearts are not old, and the world is declining.

The family style is gone.

It's strange that the social atmosphere is not crooked.

Many people say that electronic products have poisoned the younger generation.

From the perspective of the Reborn.

Chen Yang disagreed with this statement.

Every era has its specific era products.

It is also bound to eliminate some things.

Feudal etiquette should indeed be eliminated.

But we can't just eliminate them all at once just to keep up with the fashion.

There are still excellent things that should continue to be passed on.

Just give an example.

Kneeling down and kowtowing is really not good, and women and children have to be taken care of, as well as those who are physically inconvenient.

This link can be removed.

You should greet the elders and say a few words of blessing, right?

Otherwise, what is the so-called New Year greetings?

From lying on the bed at home and playing with the mobile phone to another family's sofa and continuing to play with the mobile phone?

Family education and family style are very important.

If these two points are not taken seriously.

That's even without electronics.

The younger generation will also crash.
