Rebirth of the pastoral landlady

Chapter 390 Extra Wreath
When it was getting dark, when Liang Yuzhong's brothers were about to see through the official road in front of Jinxi's house, old Liangtou finally came back through the twilight.

According to the previous agreement, the big guys just rushed to meet the old Liangtou, but no one asked where the old Liangtou went and what he did.

Seeing his sons and daughters-in-law like this one by one, the words that Lao Liangtou had pondered over and over all along the way were useless.

At the same time, seeing Liang Yuzhong and the others' unpretentious worries, Old Liangtou felt a little uncomfortable. He wanted to confess, but he struggled a few times and finally kept silent.

The days are so calm and busy, the golden rapeseed flowers are falling, the broad bean flowers are blooming, and the purple and white petals are swaying in the warm wind of spring.

The fry in the fish pond of Jinxi’s family are growing up crazily, and the chicks in Mrs. Sun’s arms are like fluffy little yellow balls. Under the leadership of the hen, they occupy the world of the side yard and chase each other in the grass under the fruit trees. foraging.

When the mountain behind the village is full of azaleas, the annual Ching Ming Festival is ushered in.

There are many rains in the Qingming season, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls.

During the Ching Ming Festival, all the large and small shops in this area will be closed for one day, even the county yamen master.

On the morning of the Ching Ming Festival, thin raindrops began to float in the sky, one after another like cow hairs, falling on the bluestone slabs on the ground, leaving a faint watermark.

"Xi'er, are you ready? Your father and the others have everything ready and are waiting for you in the main room!"

After breakfast, Mrs. Sun hastily knocked on Jinxi's door and urged her.

"Mother, that's all right, you help me get a bamboo hat." Jin Xi responded, holding a small water bottle in her hand, and was evenly sprinkling water on a handful of enchanting apricot blossoms stuck in the big bottle in front of her.

This apricot flower was sent by Wending yesterday, he came to say goodbye to her.His grandfather in Yunzhou has sent no less than seven waves of people to urge him from years ago to now, but Wending failed to make it.

This time during the Ching Ming Festival, Wending planned to return to Yunzhou.

"Xi'er, just wait patiently for me for a while, at least five days, at most ten days, when I come back from this trip, I will come to your house to hire you!"

Before he left yesterday, he held his hand and made a promise.

The corners of Jin Xi's lips curled up slightly, looking out the window as the rain brushed against the green bamboo leaves, wondering where his chariots and horses are now?It is thousands of miles away to go to Yunzhou!
"Xi'er, I found the bamboo hat." When Sun's voice sounded from outside the door again, Jin Xi had already changed her shoes and came out.

"Your hall brother also came from the county earlier, and now your father is talking with you in the front hall." Sun said while putting on a bamboo hat for Jin Xi.

Jin Xi was very happy to hear the news that Liang Lihui was coming, and hurried to the main room in front of her.

Liang Lihui, who hadn't seen him for a long time, seemed to have lost some weight, but his spirit looked good. When Jinxi passed by, Liang Yuzhong was asking Liang Lihui about this year's autumn scientific expedition.

Judging from Liang Lihui's detailed answers, he seems to be fully prepared for this year's autumn exam. Compared with the nervous and taboo mentality of the past few years, he now has the confidence to win.

Liang Yuzhong couldn't help smiling with satisfaction, Jin Xi came over with a smile, followed by Mrs. Sun.

Jin Xi and Liang Lihui gave a slight bow, looked him up and said, "Study is indeed a serious business, so we can't delay it, but my elder brother's body can't be sloppy. I saw that my elder brother lost a lot of weight when he came back this trip. !"

"Yeah, I did lose weight twice. Li Hui, you have to stay at home for the Qingming Festival this time?" Sun asked.

Liang Lihui stood up when Mrs. Sun came in, and hurriedly replied respectfully after hearing this: "I plan to go back to the county after lunch."

"There is also an old black-boned hen at home. You can take it with you when you go back to the county. The old hen soup is very nourishing, especially for those who stay up late to study like you." Sun said generously.

"Mother, if you really want to make up for the eldest brother, why not send the chicken directly to Aunt Taozhi, and let her cook it for noon, and it will be troublesome to take it to the county town?"

Liang Lihui was never good at these warm greetings among women, so he just stood aside and rubbed his hands gratefully, not knowing what to say.

Because of the drizzling rain, Mrs. Sun left the young third and fourth at home.Jin Rou is unwilling to go, so the only person who goes with Liang Yuzhong is Jin Xi.

In the backyard of the old Liang's house, Liang Yuzhou and Liang Lisheng were waiting there. When Liang Yuzhong led Liang Lihui and Jin Xi into the familiar east wing room, the atmosphere in the room was very dull.

Especially the old Liangtou, sitting there holding a dry tobacco pole in his hand, puffing out smoke rings with a sad face and sighing.

Jin Xi glanced around the room and saw the grave-sweeping and worship objects piled up in the corner, and immediately understood why the atmosphere was so gloomy and oppressive.

Because this year is the first Qingming Festival when Mrs. Tan passed away, according to the customs in this area, the married daughter's family has to put a wreath on Mrs. Tan's grave and burn it.

However, the whereabouts of Liang Yumei, the only daughter of the Tan family, is still unknown. Zhang Daqiang's family, who had a marriage contract with her, also broke the engagement with the old Liang's family after waiting for half a year.

Can't wait for the wreath from the daughter's family, the granddaughter who married out will take up this responsibility, but the granddaughter who married out of the old Liang family so far is Liang Jinlan.

The second room was expelled from the family tree of the old Liang family by the old Liangtou, and it was even less likely that Liang Jinlan would come to visit Tan's grave.

"In such a situation, your mother will be shameless on the ground! It's shameful, let outsiders laugh at you!" Lao Liang raised his eyes, glanced at the people in front of him, and sighed.

Liang Yuzhong and the others all bowed their heads. Although Jinxi came from the new society and never believed in such particularities, everyone believed that when she went to the country, she did as the Romans did. Everyone will think that the man with the Pot Duan Ling card is not going to work.

Jin Xi was also silent, so, in this silence, everyone set off for the mountain behind the village.In order to avoid being bumped into by the villagers as much as possible, so as to ask about his daughter's wreath making, the old Liangtou even took the big guy with his head sullenly, and did not hesitate to take a detour on another mountain road to Tan's tomb.

Jin Xi secretly feels sorry for the good face of old Liangtou, you are going to take a detour up the mountain, but around Tan's tomb, there are also other family's ancestral graves in the village, you can hide for a while and you will never be able to avoid it for the rest of your life.When someone else comes over to sweep the grave, don't you still bump into him and ask?

Alas, Jin Xi secretly shakes her head, intentionally lagging behind by two steps.

Liang Lihui and Jin Xi seem to have a tacit understanding, and he is also two steps behind.

"Is there any news from Huhai?" Jin Xi asked in a low voice, the news from Huhai is naturally about Liang Yumei.

Liang Lihui frowned slightly, and said: "During the Chinese New Year, I was busy helping my father-in-law with the county government affairs, so I wasted some time to investigate. I finally managed to free up some time ago, but I didn't expect that there would be a lot of trouble on the other side of the lake. The clue to you is broken, which is why I haven't sent you a message for a long time."

Jin Xi nodded slightly, and continued to ask: "About the matter of finding Aunt Mei'er, brother, you can put it aside for now, there is less than four months to go before the exam, you should concentrate on preparing for the exam. Finding someone, I'll take over."

"Xi'er, do you have connections in Huhai?" Liang Lihui asked.

Mingshan Pavilion has a sub-building in Huhai County. The restaurant is generally mixed with dragons and snakes, and there are people from all walks of life. It should be okay to help inquire about someone.

I didn't think about borrowing this power before, because I didn't think clearly about the relationship between myself and Wending.Now that everything is clear, then all of this will be their shared property in the future, so Jin Xi will naturally have to put great thought into it.

Jin Xi smiled and said, "I will do my best, unless she leaves Huhai County."

Liang Lihui nodded, pondered for a while and was about to speak again, when suddenly, Liang Liqing's exaggerated exclamation came from the front.

"Grandpa, uncle, look quickly, there is a big wreath in front of grandma's grave!"

"What?" Lao Liangtou, who was walking behind the old Liangtou, who was climbing the mountain with his hands behind his back, was shocked when he heard the shout from the young boy in front of him.

"Fourth brother, Mo Hun said, you are delusional!" Liang Lisheng's first reaction was to scold Liang Liqing. Given the fact that it is there, it is impossible for anyone to send a wreath!

"I don't have dizziness, it's true, you see!" Liang Liqing shouted, pointing to the gap between the lush pine trees in front of him.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, Liang Yuzhou immediately shouted: "Young boy Qing is right, there seems to be a wreath in front of my mother's grave!"

So, the big guy didn't say much, and rushed to Tan's grave in three steps and two steps. The mountain path after the rain was wet and slippery. Old Liangtou almost fell down several times. Fortunately, Liang Yuzhong followed By his side, hold him in time.

"Oh, it's really a wreath for your mother, and it's a big wreath!"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Old Liang said excitedly, then turned his neck and shouted in a trembling voice towards the lush forests around: "Mei'er, are you back? Come out, Dad won't hit you, and he won't beat you." scold you……"

"Mei'er, come out, your mother will forgive you for your big mistake..."

Old Liang's face twitched with excitement, and he cried out to the surroundings.Liang Yuzhong supported the old Liangtou and asked Liang Lisheng to set up sacrifices and incense paper firecrackers.

There were two grave-sweeping villagers over there who were startled by the noise, and they all turned their heads to look this way.

Jin Xi and Liang Lihui had just climbed up and happened to see this scene.

"Father, don't be in a hurry to shout. There is a pair of small elegiac couplets hanging on the side of the wreath, and there are words written on them! Maybe it's Mei'er who's back, and I don't know if it's Lan girl!" Liang Yuzhou said, striding towards The big wreath goes.

"Oh, it's all wrong!" Liang Yuzhou slapped his thigh suddenly, and shouted at the old Liangtou who was still crying for Liang Yumei behind him: "Father, they didn't send them, this wreath is someone else!"
