Chapter 443
Before the vernal equinox, construction of the corridor bridge and pavilion on the water plank road in Shuangtang Village began. Within two days, Xiao Gong also came back to Shuangtang Village from the company to take charge of the planting and rectification work of the old well ground greenhouse .
Previously, Su Qinghe asked Su Zhiliang to solicit opinions. After learning that Su Qinghe came out to rectify the living environment in Shuangtang Village, most of the people not only had no objections, but also eagerly helped and appealed to other people. Thought work.
In order to improve the village, some people who are relatively well-off donated a lot of money, and even a few old people who moved to the city sent their children back to the village, wanting to see Shuangtang Village with their own eyes. The process of rectification.
Doing nothing but doing two things, Su Qinghe handed over all the public works of Shuangtang Village to the Municipal Design Institute. He had only one requirement, that is to make Shuangtang Village a park-like living environment according to local conditions, and the related supporting facilities should be done well. beautiful.
The town was happy to facilitate this matter, and all the relevant procedures were given a green light. In a word, Shuangtang Village is your boss Su's territory. As long as the villagers have no objections, you can do whatever you want.
The people in the nearby villages saw how lively Shuangtang Village was, and their eyes were red with envy, but they had nothing to say. Who would let Shuangtang Village have a big boss, and would be willing to throw money into the village.With their help, Shuangtang Village once again gained the limelight in the whole town, and Su Qinghe became a prominent figure again.
Su Xiaoting was very happy. There were so many workers pouring into the village at once. Every day when she came back from get out of class to pick up bottles, she found soft hands. All tanned.Everyone knows that this is the apple of the eye of Party A's boss, who not only lets her play, but also guides her from time to time in her spare time.
Against this background, the spring equinox has arrived quietly.
The vernal equinox is a solar term that is considered more important in Nanling Town. In addition to the increase in rain after the vernal equinox, it is also because the period from the vernal equinox to Qingming is the peak period for sweeping graves.
Earlier, seeing that the vernal equinox happened to be Sunday this year, Su Qinghe and Su Zhiliang decided to go to the mountain to sweep the tomb on the vernal equinox day.
After breakfast, Bai Zhi helped obediently put on the sun protection clothing and sun hat, and wrapped the little guy tightly.Because of the rain in Qingming last year, I didn't take Guaiguai to visit the tomb. This year, the vernal equinox was earlier, the weather was good, Guaiguai grew up a bit, so Su Qinghe wanted to take her along.
"Guaiguai is still so young, what do you take her to do? Can't you just take her there when you go back to the ancestral hall to burn paper?" the old lady nagged, very dissatisfied that Su Qinghe wanted to take Guaiguai up the mountain to visit the grave.
Before Su Qinghe could speak, he obediently shouted first: "Go~~"
She has been at home for so long, and she hasn't been to the mountains a few times. After pestering Su Qinghe for a few days, Su Qinghe agreed to take her there. How could the old lady dissuade her.
Su Qinghe said with a smile: "Grandmother, you heard it, the little guy pestered her to go, I didn't force her to go."
The old lady turned her back and said nothing.
Su Qinghe smiled, carried the hoe and hugged Guaiguai, and went to join Su Zhiliang's family.
In previous years, during the tomb-sweeping on Qingming Festival, Su Zhiliang would go up the mountain to clean up the weeds growing from the tomb in advance, and when Qingming came, everyone would pack lightly.But this year, the tomb-sweeping was carried out on the day of the spring equinox earlier, so the workload was naturally heavy, and all three members of Su Zhiliang's family were dispatched together.
I didn’t bring any sacrifices. I used to carry three vegetarian dishes up the mountain with my shoulders. Later, my family was small and I found it troublesome, so I stopped carrying the burden. I just brought incense sticks, paper money, firecrackers, a bag of bread, a bag of candy and biscuits, and a bottle of Coke. Make tea, a bottle of Sprite for shochu, and when you turn around to burn paper in the ancestral hall, just bring three vegetarian dishes.
A group of people carried hoes and big bags and small bags, and went up the mountain from the side of the old well ground shed. Since some people went up the mountain to take care of the lychee trees some time ago, the weeds on the mountain road have been cleared, so the mountain road is not difficult to walk.
Obediently being hugged by Su Qinghe, but she didn't dare to let her walk the mountain road by herself, if she didn't pay attention to her feet, she could roll down the mountain.She can help, too, with the bag of joss paper money on her wrist, looking left and right along the way.
Last year, Su Qinghe took her up the mountain to pick lychees and beat mangoes, but she was still young at that time, and she forgot about it after so long, so this time she went up the mountain, she found everything novel.
"Father~ what is this~"
"This is the lychee tree, darling, do you still remember the lychees?"
Blinking obediently, she felt very familiar. She frowned and tried to recall, and finally remembered, "Zhizhi~ Dad~ I have eaten Zhizhi~~"
As she spoke, her saliva flowed out from the corner of her mouth, and then sucked it back, laughing a few times.
"Father~ when~ can you eat Zhizhi~"
"Hurry up, in a few months, you can eat it on Guaiguai's birthday!" After finishing speaking, Su Qinghe sighed. When the lychee matures, Guaiguai will be two years old.
"Birthday~" Guaiguai was pleasantly surprised, "Birthday cake~"
"Yes, you can have cake on your birthday!"
"Father~ what is this~"
Of course, not all of the mountains are full of lychee trees. There are a few ridges planted with eucalyptus, which is one of them. Su Qinghe replied: "This is eucalyptus, a tree that can be sold for money!"
"Sell money for money~" Guaiguai was self-centered and happy. Along the way, she pointed at Su Qinghe and asked Su Qinghe about everything she saw. Su Zhiliang helped answer some questions that Su Qinghe couldn't answer. Guaiguai just thought it was an eye-opener. There are so many things on the mountain.
What Su Qinghe and his party went to first was not the grave of his grandfather or his parents, but before the sun was strong in the morning, they went to the farthest grave first, and had to climb two mountains. It is said that the person buried in that grave was his grandfather's grandmother According to Su Qinghe's understanding, it should be the highest tomb among all the tombs to be swept during the Qingming Festival, and it is the only one. No matter how tall or of the same generation, no tomb can be found.
After turning over a mountain, obediently with sharp eyes, he saw Su Xiaoting who was drilling into the wild grass, "Sister~ sister~~"
Su Qinghe followed her gaze, and could vaguely see a head, he smacked his lips and looked at the boy, the little guy's eyes are not so big for nothing.
In this way, it can be found that there is a person in the grass.
Su Xiaoting didn't expect to meet Su Qinghe and the others. She was startled when she heard Kuaiguai calling her. She got out from the pile of leaves and grass. She ran to join Guaiguai, looked at Su Qinghe and his group and asked : "Uncle Qinghe, are you going to worship the mountain?"
Su Qinghe frowned and nodded, "Why did you run up the mountain by yourself again, I said why I didn't see you in the morning."
"I went up the mountain to pick wild fruits to eat!" Su Xiaoting said, and took out a large handful of small red fruits from her pocket, "I still want to bring them back to my sister to eat. It's delicious, sweet and sour."
Kuaiguai's eyes lit up, she begged Su Qinghe to put her down, ran to Su Xiaoting, grabbed a prickly bubble and stuffed it into her mouth.
Su Qinghe didn't stop him, he recognized that it was indeed the prickly pear, when he was a child, he often picked it and ate it when he went up the mountain with his family to visit graves.
But for the scene in front of him, he didn't think of such a long time ago. Instead, he thought of the scene when he saw Su Xiaoting for the first time last year. That day when the old well was weeding, Su Xiaoting came down from the mountain and took out a handful from her pocket in the same way. wild fruit.
Last year, she gave Bai Zhi a handful of ripe purple-black sour rice.
Today this handful is the newly ripened red prickly prickly pear, and she gave it to obediently to eat.
I didn't think to feed him the first time twice, so I was very angry.
