Chapter 67

"The door is locked, and it's pitch black inside. There must be no one there."

People in Yancheng have the custom of lighting up lights until dawn on New Year's Eve. Even if they are sleepy and cannot keep watch until dawn, they still have to light up a lamp until dawn at home, which indicates that the coming year will be bright and prosperous.

"Master Jiujin, I have asked the people next to me, and they said that they were happily preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, and their son, who hadn't been back for many years, was going home for the New Year. He was very happy. But for some reason, the door was suddenly closed and locked. silhouette."

The pig butcher threw himself on the door and watched and listened for a long time through the crack of the door.

Although Tang Qing was mentally prepared, he still felt very lost. At the same time, he felt an inexplicable tension and panic.

Eighteen pee, eighteen pee, are you really that afraid of the old leader?What is your relationship with him?
Old dragon head, old dragon head, what kind of person are you?What kind of festivities do you have with the Li family?Master Li, the day you scolded Li Zhong and Li Cheng angrily on May [-]th, you acted like a gentleman.

Li Li, Li Li, what are you doing leaving Yancheng again?Have you ever owed a huge amount of debt?Why do you owe a huge debt in just half a year?Are you the richest person in our city?

Tang Qing didn t utter a word on the way back, and his steps were heavy, which was the complete opposite of the urgency when he went there.

Butcher and Aunt Shanghai followed behind, having doubts in their hearts but not daring to ask more questions.

"Go back first, I'll go for a while."

Tang Qing was extremely depressed.

"Ala is fine, Xiang Xiang eats too much at night, just in time to digest and digest."

"That's right, that's right, I'm too full to eat, my face is white, and I'm digesting."

The pig butcher heard what Aunt Shanghai said, and echoed it repeatedly.

"I'm really fine, you go back."

Tang Qing turned around an intersection and headed northwest, regardless of whether the pig killer and Aunt Shanghai followed or went back.

At this time, the night sky in Yancheng is harmonious and peaceful, and the festive voice of the TV comes from the windows of every household:

"Flying to the spring, the spring tide is surging and the world is new."

"Fly to the spring, the spring breeze is mighty and the mountains and rivers are beautiful."

"Flying to the spring, the spring is infinite and the motherland is good."

"Flying to the spring, the spring is full of Wanjiale."

……

The 2000 Millennium Spring Festival Gala began.

I don’t know why, Tang Qing doesn’t like watching singing and dancing shows, and I don’t like to watch Qingqing, I, My series, of course I don’t have the time to watch it. I am busy in the store all day during the day, and I just want to sleep well when I go home at night feel.

"Huh? Where is she going?"

The pig butcher saw Tang Qing walking straight along the ring road below Lushan Park instead of going up the mountain through Lushan Park.

"Isn't Yi the Li family's old house?"

Aunt Shanghai was also beating her heart, thinking that Tang Qing was going to the Li family's old house, but she went all the way, not knowing where she was going.

It is also strange that after more than half a month of light rain or light snow, these thirty nights were sunny and warm.

Tang Qing felt a little hot after walking for a while, and unbuttoned the old padded jacket on the outside to reveal a small padded jacket inside.

Tang Qing's winter clothes are different from others. Others usually wear a sweater after thermal underwear, and a cotton jacket or down sweater outside.

Tang Qing doesn't like to wear tight thermal underwear, and he also thinks sweaters are expensive.

She wears a small padded jacket directly behind a summer T-shirt in winter. This small padded jacket is said to be a small padded jacket, but in fact it is a small, outdated padded jacket that she used to wear. It looks ugly when worn outside, but she is reluctant to throw it away. Just wear it inside, and wear the padded jacket newly bought in recent years on the outside.

Throughout the winter, Tang Qing looked rounder, rounder like a penguin.

Now this penguin rolled and rolled to Xishan Cemetery.

"Hey, what's the last thing you do here for Chinese New Year?"

Aunt Shanghai stood at the entrance of the tomb and dared not go in.

"Let's wait here for Master Jiujin to come out."

The entrance of the tomb passage is also the exit, and Pig Killer and Aunt Shanghai did not enter the tomb passage.

Tang Qing walked to the tomb alone, and she came to her husband's tomb first.

"Who?"

As soon as Tang Qing approached her husband's cemetery, two black shadows dodged into the nearby cemetery one after the other.

"come out!"

Tang Qing took out the razor and walked slowly towards the cemetery where the shadow dodged in.

"If you don't come out again, I'm going to start!"

Tang Qing raised the hand holding the razor high, and pushed aside the cypress branches beside the tombstone with the other hand.

"I'll let you play tricks!"

When it was too late, Tang Qing cut off a cypress branch with his razor, picked up the cypress branch with the other hand, and slapped the two black shadows behind the tombstone hard.

"Don't fight, don't fight, Qing, it's us."

"It's us, it's us, Qing!"

Two old men turned out from behind the tombstone.

"What are you doing here?"

Tang Qing took a closer look and found that the two black shadows turned out to be his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

"Let's go out for a walk."

"Let's go, I'm too full to eat at night, let's go."

The father-in-law and mother-in-law were obviously embarrassed to see Tang Qing here, and Tang Qing also knew that he knew what to ask, what could the father-in-law and mother-in-law do when they came to Xishan Cemetery at night?Look at my son!

Is there anything more sad than losing a child in old age, and a white-haired man giving away a black-haired man?

"Could it be that you have been here for four years at Thirty Nights?"

This year's New Year's Eve is the fourth New Year's Eve since my husband left.

"Ah."

"It's hard for you to miss him so much."

The father-in-law and mother-in-law stood in front of their son's grave, crying.

"He probably doesn't want you to do this!"

Tang Qing looked at his name on the tombstone, but felt very peaceful in his heart.

When the tombstone was erected, her father-in-law and mother-in-law strongly opposed Tang Qing's engraving her name on it, and her parents also persuaded her to think clearly. It is not so easy to erase it now.

According to the customs of Yan City, if a wife wants to remarry after her husband dies, she cannot engrave her name on the tombstone.

Tang Qing not only engraved his name on the tombstone, but also erected a tombstone for her husband in the name of his wife.

It should have been "the deceased father so-and-so, signed son Xiaoqiang", but now it is "the deceased husband so-and-so, his beloved wife Tang Qing and his son Xiaoqiangli", which means that Tang Qing will be the wife of the deceased husband for life and cannot remarry.

"Qing, we know you are a good boy, but you are still young after all."

"Qing, last time I had absolutely no other intentions, I did it for your own good."

The father-in-law and mother-in-law persuaded Tang Qing while wiping tears.

"What do you talk so much about? Today is New Year's Eve, let him go out and have fun, beat old K and play Pai Gow, I don't know if he has learned it. I guess he still likes to stay at home and watch the Spring Festival Gala with Xiaoqiang, Well, then let him watch the Spring Festival Gala with Xiaoqiang at home, and I will cook him snacks at that time, allow him to drink an extra bottle of beer, and eat two more braised duck feet. You can eat as much as you want, this time I will braise it The saltiness is just right..."

Tang Qing took out two braised duck feet from his padded jacket pocket and put them in front of the tombstone.

"Son, your daughter-in-law is the best in the world!"

"Son, don't worry, Xiaoqiang is fine, and we are all fine."

The mother-in-law and father-in-law burst into tears.

"Master Jiujin, are you alright?"

"Master Jiujin, what happened?"

The pig butcher and Aunt Shanghai heard that Tang Qing was not alone in the crying, and hurried to the tomb.

"It's okay, please send Xiaoqiang's grandparents back first."

Tang Qing walked to the innermost part of the tomb passage.

"Master Jiujin, where are you going?"

"Pig-killer, I told you to send Xiaoqiang's grandparents and Shanghai aunt first and then go back, so there are so many words?"

Tang Qing didn't look back.

The pig butcher didn't dare to ask more questions, neither did the two old men and the Shanghai aunt. They all knew Tang Qing's temper, and she wouldn't tell you if she didn't tell you.

Tang Qing came to Master Li's tomb with the help of street lights on both sides of the cemetery.

On New Year's Eve tonight, the management staff probably turned on all the street lights in order to let the people lying here have a bright New Year's Eve.

"As expected, someone has been here!"

Tang Qing walked to Master Li's tomb and took a look. There was a pile of burnt paper ashes. He probed it with his hand, and there was still temperature. It is estimated that this person has not been gone for a long time, and he may still be nearby.
