Li Feng patted the urn of Liu Yu's ashes on the passenger seat and said, "Brother, you are home, please be happy."
This place belongs to a poor village, and there are bumpy loess roads all the way. Fortunately, Li Feng's off-road vehicle has a higher chassis, otherwise it would be difficult for ordinary cars to get in. Li Feng heard Liu Yu say that there is an uncle in the family who has not yet graduated from the fifth service. This
My father and Liu Yu’s grandfather are the same grandfather. The Five Servers refers to the five generations of people. There is a saying that "we are relatives within the Five Servers". This is to use the above sentence to push up five generations, starting from the great ancestor, the great ancestor, and so on.
Great-grandfather, grandfather, father, myself, all those whose blood relationship is within these five generations are relatives, that is, people who have the same great ancestor are all relatives. From the great ancestor to yourself, there are five generations, and they become the fifth generation. After the fifth generation, there are no more
Intermarriage is also possible if there is a kinship relationship. Generally, when there are weddings and funerals in the family, people within the fifth server will participate.
Li Feng wanted to find Liu Yu, his uncle. Without relatives from the fifth server to attend the funeral, he would be really lonely. Li Feng didn’t want to see Liu Yu going to a funeral without even a relative. Li Feng drove his car to Liujiazhuang and watched from a distance.
It's not big, just a little bigger than Lijiagang, with about a hundred households. Looking from a distance, there is no one at the entrance of the village, only a few small black dogs chasing each other. Maybe the noise of the car alerted the villagers, and a few snot-nosed kids were patting each other.
The buttocks ran out, and they were riding bamboo poles under their crotches, which made them feel like they were galloping freely. However, when they saw Li Feng's car, several children shrank their heads timidly.
"Come to uncle, uncle will give you sweets." Li Feng smiled and waved to the children, but who knew that the children turned around and ran away, leaving behind a puff of smoke. Of course, the loess dust raised the smoke. Li Feng was a little troubled.
It is clear that rural people are not stupid nowadays. They often teach their children not to talk to strangers or talk to strangers, otherwise they will get drugged and become confused and run away with others. (-< Shuhaige>-Net.)
The little kid didn't listen to the warnings from the adults at home. Li Feng, a stranger, suddenly broke in and asked for sweets. A group of children thought they had met a bad guy, but before Li Feng figured it out, four women came out of the village, shouting and holding their hands.
Still holding a fork and shovel, Li Feng saw from a distance that something was wrong. What did these people want to do? Li Feng quickly shouted Uncle Liu Yu's name. "I'm looking for Liu Fu, is he here?"
"Liu Fu? Are you really here to find Liu Fu?" A middle-aged woman asked in surprise as she pulled her little girl. The woman's name was Guo Honglian, and she was Liu Fu's mother-in-law. Liu Fu worked in a lumber factory in the town.
When did you get to know the person in front of you? He was from the city at first glance. Li Feng was in the capital these days, and he had unknowingly taken on the air of a city person. Guo Honglian, who had never been out before, saw such a sophisticated city man for the first time.
People, I still can’t believe it.
"Yes, do you know where Liu Fu is? I have something to discuss with him." Li Feng nodded. Several women heard that they were looking for Liu Fu, an acquaintance of them.
"Honglian, this is your relative. When did you have such a relative? They look quite rich." The woman next to her murmured in a low voice. Many looked at Guo Honglian with envy, but Guo Honglian thought for a long time that her home was full of people.
Shangougou farmers, I have never heard of any rich relatives.
"I don't know, maybe it's the boss Liu Fu." Guo Honglian thought for a long time and felt that this was more likely, but wasn't Liu Fu working in the town? "Liu Fu is in town and won't be back until noon. I
This is his house, what do you want to do with him?" Guo Honglian spoke without any stage fright, but the little girl next to her secretly glanced at Li Feng and the brand-new car behind him from time to time. Li Feng didn't know what this man was thinking, but he found Liu Fu's family
That's fine, but we still have to wait for Liu Fu to come back. Li Feng must know the customs here. There is a saying that there is a custom in three li, especially in the mountains. The customs are different in different places. Can the ashes of people who died outside enter the village?
Two theories. (-< Shuhaige>-Net.) Although Li Feng doesn't care about these taboos, he can't help but consider other people's taboos.
"Liu Yu, Miaomiao, the only one in Liu Manao's family, has died. This family has no descendants." Many women felt a little sad in their hearts when they heard this. They said that someone had left their village, but they didn't expect that their family was so gone. Finally, their son was now dead.
But after all, they were not close relatives, so everyone sighed.
"I am Liu Yu's friend. This time I made a special trip to send him back. Fallen leaves return to their roots." Chinese people have an attachment to their hometown that is difficult for outsiders to understand, and it is difficult to leave their hometown. Ai Qing once said, "Why do I often have tears in my eyes? Because"
I love this land deeply. The biggest dream of every wanderer is to return to his hometown, because their souls are integrated with the land of their hometown, just like flesh and blood, which is inseparable. God has given us a pair of invisible wings - to pursue our dreams and
Wandering, however, is more about returning to your homeland. If you don't return home in rich clothes, you will let yourself rot in your homeland.
"You are Xiaoyu's friend, please come quickly. The car can be driven in. Xiaoyu's old house is often cleaned by his uncle. I will take you there." Li Feng asked Guo Honglian and the little girl by the hand to get into the car, but
Guo Honglian refused several times and refused. Li Feng pulled several times, and finally let Guo Honglian sit with the little girl in his arms. Maybe it was the first time he rode in a car, so his body was a little tight. Li Feng followed Guo Honglian's instructions and walked all the way to a small courtyard.
Although the wooden doors are a bit old, they are not decayed. There are three adobe houses with gray tiles. The yard is not big, and Li Feng parked his car outside.
"This is Xiaoyu's house. His father died early, and his mother took him to do some small business in the town. He lived a good life at first, but how could he know that, oh, God is so cruel, what a good person.
Ah. The whole family of three is gone. Alas, this is the kitchen, it can’t be used now." Li Feng opened the door and saw the earthy floor, the old-fashioned table and the Eight Immortals table, which were a little worn out. A few bamboo chairs, side
The upper two bedrooms are hung with floral curtains instead of copper dogs. The red dragon and phoenix embroidery on them is a little faded. It seems to be a bit old. It was probably left behind when Liu Yu's parents got married. The room is empty, with only
Two painted red boxes and canopy beds.
Except for a bit of dust inside and outside the house, it was still in good condition. Li Feng thought that Liu Fu must be a good person. He could take care of the deserted yard for so many years. There are really not many people who can match his heart. It's a pity that he won't be here anymore.
At home, I still don’t know much about Liu Yu’s burial, and there are still many things I need to ask for advice on. Although I have money, I still have to respect the Liu family’s rules in handling this matter.
"Go home and have a sip of tea. His father won't be back for a while." Guo Honglian is an honest and friendly peasant woman who doesn't know many words, but when guests come, she doesn't have anything to entertain her at home, but she must have such a sip of tea. Li Feng originally
I didn’t want to bother you, but after thinking about it I decided to forget it.
Li Feng really wanted to start the car, but Guo Honglian stopped him. "No, my house is two steps away." Li Feng followed Guo Honglian's pointing to the place. It was a short white snake-shaped path. The yard of Liu Fu's house was higher.
Li Feng looked at the car and saw that it was not easy to get in. Forget it, just leave the car here. Li Feng took some gifts with him, and there were a few gadgets left in the car, so he took them out.
When Li Feng saw that he took out the puppy doll, the girl's eyes lit up. The little girl looked longingly at the cute and fluffy puppy in Li Feng's hand. Li Feng chuckled and put the puppy into the little girl's hand.
, but the little girl didn’t dare to hold it and looked at her mother.
"We can't have this." Guo Honglian waved her hand. Li Feng didn't expect that such a small stuffed puppy could do anything.
"It's okay, this thing is not valuable. I was given a lot by others. Little sister, take it, don't be afraid." Guo Honglian saw Li Feng saying and stuffed it into her daughter's hand. The little girl looked forward to her mother. Guo Honglian gritted her teeth.
, nodded. "Girl, kowtow quickly." Li Feng was stunned, why are you still kowtowing? Li Feng quickly stepped forward and grabbed the little girl who wanted to kneel down. "You can't do this, get up quickly."
Li Feng didn't expect that the kowtow ceremony was still popular in this small mountain village. "Should, should." Guo Honglian said, still thinking about asking the woman to kowtow. Li Feng tried to persuade her for a while. He secretly felt that he was not acting recklessly, but he was still facing the problem. The mountain village here is closed.
, there may be a lot of customs left. If you do something wrong, people may not say it on the surface, but they may whisper it secretly.
A little stuffed dog made the little girl happy. She jumped up and down along the way, and her little gray face showed a smile of joy from the bottom of her heart. Li Feng felt that children in mountain villages are easily satisfied, and one toy can last a year.
, two years, three years, or even the entire childhood.
Li Feng didn't know that this was the first time that the girl in front of her received a toy from someone else. The family didn't have much money, so how could he sell toys to her? His brother's milk money wasn't even enough. The little girl was only four or five years old, but she looked like she was in her mid-twenties.
She looks like she is three years old. Although she eats enough food every day, she has no nutrition and is very thin. Li Feng mistakenly thought she was three years old at first, even though she knew she was already five years old. The little girl's hair is a little yellow and her face is very thin. Compared to
The baby looks much prettier and cuter than the little girl in front of me.
The yard of Liu Fu's house is made of stones and is clean. There is an old man sitting in the yard playing with a one or two-year-old baby. When the baby sees his mother coming back, he runs over and hides behind Guo Honglian and timidly stretches out his little head to steal.
Look at Li Feng. Li Feng saw the little guy, he was very cute.
"Haha, come to uncle, I will give you a little doll." Li Feng shook the rag doll in his hand. The little guy is a villain after all. Looking at such a beautiful doll, he ran over and looked at Li Feng expectantly. "This
For you to play with." Li Feng grabbed a handful of little dolls and little girls who had never seen candies and distributed them to the two children.
"Old man, you are in good health." Li Feng saw Guo Honglian helping the old man up. He was a little thin, but he was in good spirits.
"Haha, it's okay, I just can't move much, sit down quickly." The old man asked Li Feng to do it, and Guo Honglian helped Li Feng pour a cup of tea, using tea leaves picked by herself.
