Is there a large tomb where they can be buried together?”
Chen Min shook his head: "I don't know that.
Didn’t you just say that?
The mountainous land has just been auctioned, and we still have to wait for developers to invest in it."
“…the environment is quite good.”
Wang Qing was obviously moved, "It's not far from the city."
Chen Min couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, Brother Hu, do you plan to come back to Rongcheng for burial in a hundred years?"
"Of course!"
Ahu answered first: "We are from Rongcheng, so naturally we have to be buried here.
It's just that the environment of the cemeteries in the city is not good now, they are very crowded, surrounded by factories and other things, and they look quite polluted.
We worked hard when we were young and finally didn't have to live the life of Datongpu.
When you are old and dead, how can you bear the small monuments squeezed together like sardines! It is better to buy them in the suburbs - this place is very good."
Everyone is already old, so there is no need to shy away from talking about such topics, even in a tone of discussion and longing.
Chen Min explained: "If I want to go back to my hometown in Rongcheng, I really don't support buying a cemetery in the city.
The mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the air is good, the environment is good, and it is only a ten-minute drive from the city, which is not far at all.
Since you are coming back, you might as well come here and buy it. Then we might as well buy it together and have a companion."
"Hahaha!"
Ahu laughed: "That's right! What a good idea! If you can chat every day, your life will be easier."
"Everyone is gone."
Cheng Tianyuan joked: "Why are we talking about living a good life?
I don’t know if we can chat about it, but it’s a good suggestion to get together.”
Ahu quickly asked: "Ayuan, do you want to join in the fun?
If you like it, you might as well buy a few and line them up in a row."
Cheng Tianyuan hesitated a little and said, "I'm not sure yet. I have to discuss it with my wife."
Chen Min shook his head: "Ayuan has no use at all.
His hometown is in Chengjia Village, which has its own mountain area. Villagers in the village can go up to the mountain for burial without any restrictions.
His parents are buried on the mountain, and he should come back in the future."
"uncertain."
Cheng Tianyuan chuckled: "Lingling may want to stay in the imperial capital.
I also want to stay in the imperial capital.
I heard Ah Heng say before that a new cemetery has just opened near their sanatorium and the environment is quite good.
Later, my aunt died and was buried there.
Lingling asked Ah Heng to ask Aheng and said that he wanted to choose a few spacious places to buy."
Ahu couldn't help but advise: "You are from Rongcheng, it would be better for you to return to your roots after falling leaves."
Cheng Tianyuan glanced at him and explained: "It's not that I don't have feelings for my hometown, it's that I... I want to be buried with my wife.
Wherever she is, I am.
The children are now working and living in the Imperial City, and they probably will not leave the Imperial City in the future.
Being close to her and being close to the children is more important than anything else."
"Right."
Ahu muttered: "Stay closer to the children. The children can only visit you during the Qingming Festival and Double Ninth Festival."
If it's thousands of miles away, a three-hour flight would be too troublesome.
In the beginning, I might come once every one or two years, but as time goes by, I may not be able to come again for several years."
Chen Min joked funnyly: "They are all dead, only a few bones are left - what do you expect?
Will it come or not? Will it come often?
Do you still think you know it yourself?"
Everyone laughed.
Wang Qing tilted his head and looked at his wife, whispering: "...let's come back.
Buy it nearby and you and Amin will be friends."
"good."
Ahu nodded in agreement: "Anyway, we will live and die together.
This is our hometown, it’s better for us to return to our roots after falling leaves.”
Chen Min suggested: "When someone else comes to develop it, I'll go and ask first.
If there is one that is suitable and spacious, let me know."
"okay!"
Ahu smiled and said: "I'll leave this to you! It's better to buy it first.
As we get older, who knows when we will leave one day! Children will not care about such things, they are busy with their own business.
We’d better prepare everything we need to prepare ourselves so that we don’t have to rely on them to do it in the future, which we won’t be satisfied with.”
Chen Min nodded in agreement: "I thought the same way, so I wanted to pay attention to it in advance and buy it first if I had the money.
If you have more money, you can buy a few more as investments."
“Invest in everything!”
Ahu laughed and scolded: "Are you short of money?
crazy for money!"
Chen Min laughed and said, "Isn't that right? Nowadays, prices related to land or real estate are basically rising every year.
Since the price can rise if you buy it, wouldn’t it be nice to make the last round of investment and make a profit if you can sell it? If you can’t sell it, use it for your own use.
Anyway, who won’t be buried in the loess in the end?”
Everyone laughed loudly! Cheng Tianyuan couldn’t help but sigh: “In a flash, our heads were all gray... In the past, we drank in front of the roaring river, talking passionately about what we were going to do in the future.
Now that I'm older, I have to find something to lean on even when I'm sitting, and I can only discuss finding a cemetery while looking at the green mountains and loess."
"yes!"
Ahu curled his lips: "There is nothing we can do.
How do you say that - no one has ever died since ancient times.
Isn’t that true?”
Wang Qing nodded.
Ahu continued: "Humans, everyone must die.
At our age, we have done everything and tasted everything, including sweet, bitter, spicy and salty.
There is nothing to be afraid of, really.
I can take everything lightly.”
Chen Min couldn't help but advise his friend: "Ayuan, why don't you discuss it with your sister-in-law.
It would be nice for us to be neighbors in a row from now on."
"No."
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "If I want to go back to Rongcheng, then I can only go back to Chengjiacun.
After all, that is the old base of our old Cheng family.
But I still prefer the imperial capital."
Ahu smiled and said: "Wherever my sister-in-law is, he will follow her."
Cheng Tianyuan chuckled: "My parents and I still have some different ideas.
They are all natives and are deeply influenced by traditional culture.
They have the idea of returning to their roots after falling leaves, and I respect them.
However, I have spent most of my life in the Imperial Capital, and I will probably end up there in the future.
Lingling should be the same.
In this case, just bury her nearby, as long as I can be with her, it doesn't matter where she is."
Ahu couldn't help but ask his wife, "Um - how do you say that sentence?"
Wang Qing smiled and replied: "We were born in the same quilt and died in the same acupuncture point."
"Yeah!"
Ahu laughed and said: "That's it! Romance for our elders!"
Chen Min's eyes were filled with obvious envy, and he whispered: "This is not what those young people nowadays who are afraid of marriage and childbirth can understand..." "Of course they can't understand it."
Cheng Tianyuan sighed: "As society develops and material conditions are very good, people's pressure becomes even greater.
Today's young people don't like to take responsibility and pay more attention to themselves.
The more conditional a marriage is and the more materialistic love is, the less likely the marriage will be stable and strong.
They are covered with the same quilt, but their thoughts are different.
If you keep talking about divorce all day long, how can you think about being buried together when you die?"
Chen Min smiled bitterly: "The three children around me... say all the time that they don't even have the motivation to fall in love - it's really sad."
