In the ordinary world, I am the son-in-law of the Sun family

Chapter 240 Qingming Festival

After the white horse passed, it came to Qingming Festival in a blink of an eye, and just on Friday, the dolls and teachers ushered in a three-day holiday.

During the Qingming Festival, it rains heavily, and the pedestrians on the road want to die.
Today's weather is just like what is described in the poem, the fine rain melts into the white mist, moistening everything silently.

"Hello, listeners, today is the fifth day of March. Welcome everyone to continue to listen to our program The Voice of the Country. Today is the Ching Ming Festival. We will hear the voices from the frontiers."

The loud sound of the radio came from the cave, Wang Manyin opened the wooden door, and thick white mist immediately poured into the main room.

Wisps of white smoke rose from the chimney on the roof of the kiln. Hei Zai wagged his tail and stared at the chickens and ducks in the chicken coop. A sweet smell of pumpkin permeated the surroundings.

"Eat pumpkin stewed rice again?" Wang Manyin asked while washing his face as he walked into the kitchen.

Lan Hua nodded, "Dahai loves to eat. It just so happened that my mother brought two old pumpkins over yesterday. Don't eat them and waste them."

Wang Manyin was noncommittal, washed his face and rode the tricycle out of the shed, brushed off the stains on it with a brush, and cleaned the inside of the car.

Then, put the previously bought liquor, incense candles, paper money, apples, and bacon and other sacrificial items into the car bucket.

"Godfather, are you going out today?" Dahai got up and asked while brushing his teeth.

"Your godfather is going back to Wangjiazhuang to worship the ancestors." Lan Hua said with bowls and chopsticks in her hand.

Dahai blinked, not knowing what he thought of, and the movements of his hands slowed down.

Wang Manyin clapped his hands and said casually, "Da Hai, get dressed after dinner, let's go see your grandpa first."

Dahai's eyes lit up, he nodded quickly, rinsed off the foam in his mouth, and then ran to the table to eat.

Although Dahai has been very happy since he came to their house, it is impossible to forget his grandfather after all.

Occasionally when he was sleeping alone at night, he couldn't help but think of the scene of living with his grandpa together.

Especially when he first came to live at his godfather's house, he couldn't help but think of his grandpa. When he was sleeping alone at night, he always wondered if he was dreaming, and if he could see his grandpa again when he opened his eyes the next day. .

Of course, whenever he is sad, the warm bed can always bring him an infinite sense of security, and his dear godfather and godmother are guarding him outside, so that he can sleep with peace of mind.

Afterwards, life got better and better, and there were more and more happy days, and I seldom thought of my grandfather, and I really integrated into the new life.

But today is the Ching Ming Festival, so I should go see my grandpa and tell him that I am living happily now, that I have food, drink and clothes every day, so that he doesn't have to worry about it down there.

He had already planned to wait for his godfather to leave, and just find a reason to go out to play and visit his grandpa. Unexpectedly, his godfather still remembered his affairs and wanted to go to see his grandpa with him.

After eating the delicious pumpkin stewed rice, Wang Manyin took Dahai to the place where Dahai used to live. Of course, Lanhua stayed to take care of the two children.

When I came to the cemetery of Grandpa Dahai, a small soil bag stood here alone, covered with weeds, and I didn't know there was a cemetery here.

Wang Manyin wore a bamboo hat on his head, put the tribute aside first, and cleaned up all the weeds with a hoe and sickle, exposing the small soil bag.

Then put joss sticks on the grave, put a small glass of white wine, a plate of bacon, and an apple, and put the joss sticks neatly.

Then Dahai was called to kneel down, and the two tore apart the paper money in their hands one by one, and then lit them together.

Dahai's eyes were red, he kowtowed three times, and said with a sob: "Grandpa, I am Dahai, I'm back to see you."

"Did you see mom and dad? I'm living a good life with my godfather now. I eat well, dress well, and I can still eat meat. You don't have to worry about me."

"Don't worry, grandpa, I will study hard, and I will come to see you every year in the future, and I will repay godfather and godmother well."

Dahai babbled on for a long time, while Wang Manyin also reflected on whether he should bring Dahai to the cemetery more often.

It wasn't until the incense candles burned out that Dahai stood up and said, "Godfather, let's go back."

Wang Manyin nodded, lifted the military hat on his head, and took his hand to return the same way.

Grandpa Dahai's cemetery is located on the mountainside, and it is full of thick fog as far as the eye can see, and the village below can't be seen at all. The wind blows the fog, and a sudden chill hits.

"Godfather." Dahai suddenly called out on the road.

"Ok?"

"Nothing." Dahai raised his head and grinned.

Wang Manyin reached out and touched his head, and said funny boy, Dahai didn't reply, but just held his hand tightly again.

"Dahai, let's visit your grandpa more often in the future, it's pretty pitiful for him to be here alone." Wang Manyin said warmly.

Dahai nodded, and his footsteps seemed to become much lighter.

Wang Manyin looked down at him, then knelt down to let him rest on his back.

When he got home, he let Dahai go into the cave to play by himself. After talking to Lanhua, he rode a tricycle towards Wangjiazhuang.

When I came to Guanzi Village, it was still as lively as ever. Dozens of round tables had been set up in the wheat threshing field. The mothers-in-law and women were busy preparing for lunch. Pots of corn wine and loose wine were also brought out, ready to eat Qingming wine.

The children followed the man's house to the back mountain to worship their ancestors. Not long after they left, Wang Manyin greeted those sisters-in-law and sisters, and hurried to the back mountain with tributes.

When they came to Houshan, Wang Hongshan was leading the men and dolls in Wangjiazhuang to clean up weeds and place tributes, and Wang Manyin hurriedly joined them.

"Man Yin, you're here, I thought you wouldn't come." Wang Hongshan said, patting him on the shoulder vigorously.

"Uncle Hongshan, how can I not come back about this matter, the old ancestor must not come to me in the middle of the night." Wang Manyin replied with a smile.

"Smelly boy, no matter how big or small, sit at a table with me later, let's have a good drink or two, it's rare to go back to the village, how are my two nephews and grandchildren, and you too, don't hug us to let us care Rare." Wang Hongshan complained.

"Uncle Hongshan, if you really care about the two boys, come and sit with me at home after lunch, and let you see how fat Lanhua has fed the two boys."

Wang Hongshan laughed twice, "I hear what you mean, do you still want to leave in the afternoon? There are enough alcohol in the village today, and no one can sit down sober."

"Drink it at noon, sober up at home in the afternoon, and eat grilled fish at my house in the evening. They are all caught from the field and are fresh."

The two chatted for a while, and after all the weeds in the tombs were cleaned up and all kinds of tributes were placed, everyone knelt in front of the graves of their closest elders and began to worship their ancestors seriously
