Chapter 225 (1/2)
The location of the graveyard chosen by Qin's father and mother for Qin's grandfather and grandmother is very good. It is a little away from other tombs. Then, looking down from this location, you can see a large golden paddy field.
And the Daishan group in the distance.
The view is wide.
Originally, the Qin family was not bankrupt. Qin's father spent a lot of money to specially invite Mr. Feng Shui to locate and see the cave, and built the cemetery in advance.
At that time, the Qin family had money. Qin's father built two turtle shell tombs for Qin's grandparents.
Two tortoise shell tombs are together.
Each turtle shell tomb has a tomb mountain and a tomb court. The two turtle shell tombs are close to each other for worship.
But when Grandpa and grandma Qin died, the Qin family was bankrupt, so Dad Qin didn't have much money to spend at their funeral.
The tomb turtle didn't do it, but made a round mound of soil.
The road from the nearby mountain road to the ancestral grave is not paved with cement. This path is easy to be covered with thorns and miscellaneous trees.
It takes a long time to cut trees every Qingming Festival.
A few days ago, when she learned that Qin Lang would come back with her grandchildren, Qin's mother specially asked Qin's father to come in advance and cut down the thorns and miscellaneous trees on the small section of the road from the nearby mountain road to the ancestral grave.
Because of the heavy rain in summer, these thorns and miscellaneous trees grow very fast. They were cut once during the ancestor worship on the Qingming Festival, and now they have grown very tall.
If you don't cut it once in advance, you can't beat people.
When Qin Lang helped Qin's father up, Qin's mother was cutting weeds at the grave.
Qin's father came over and saw the tomb where the tomb turtle had not been repaired. His eyes were red. He said to Qin Lang, ”Lang Lang, when your grandparents died, our family was bankrupt and had no money to repair the tomb turtle.”
”Now that you have money, we have to repair your grandparents' graves. This is a perfect turtle shell tomb, which can better bless you and Xuanxuan them.”
When Grandpa Qin died, it happened that the Qin Lang family went bankrupt not long ago. The family really didn't have any money. They still borrowed money from their relatives to hold a funeral.
Ordinary funerals cost at least thirty or forty thousand yuan.
The Qin Lang family spent 35000 yuan.
Fortunately, Qin's father bought the coffin for Qin's grandpa and grandma in advance, otherwise it would cost more money.
Later, when grandma Qin died, Qin Lang's family slowed down a little. Qin's father spent more money and spent 45000.
But there is still no money to build a tomb turtle. It uses a soil tomb.
Qin's father blamed himself for this. He thought he had so much money, but when his parents died, he couldn't give them a grand funeral.
There is no way to repair the tomb turtle into a complete turtle shell tomb.
This has always been a great regret in his heart.
Qin Lang knew this, because every year when he came to visit the tomb on the Tomb Sweeping Day, he saw his father burning paper money at the grave. His eyes turned red. His mother patted his father on the back. They whispered that they had saved money. They chose an auspicious day to repair his grandparents' grave.
”Dad, it's no problem. You find someone and I'll pay for it.” Qin Lang said.
Father Qin nodded.
Because other parts of the turtle shell tomb need to burn a lot of money, when he repaired the tomb in advance, he had already repaired it. Now he can repair a tomb turtle for 50000 yuan, a total of 100000 yuan.
When grandma Qin died three years ago, he consulted about the price. At that time, one cost more than 40000. Now in the past three years, the labor cost has increased. Two, a total of 100000 yuan, can be done.
Thinking that he could repair the grave for his parents, Qin's father was in a much better mood.
It's sunny today. The afternoon sun is a little poisonous. Su Shihan put down the sunshade and mosquito net on the babies' stroller.
There are still many mosquitoes on the mountain in summer.
The bruise on Qin's father's knee is almost better. He and Qin Lang squat in front of the grave. Qin Lang is responsible for placing meat, wine glasses, fruits and incense candles.
After putting things in place, Qin Lang took a sickle and helped Qin Ma mow the grave, because there were two graves. One cut slowly.
If two people cut it, it will be much faster.
Yutong and Kexin are lying in the stroller. Xuanxuan starts to 'uh huh'.
Su Shihan took Xuanxuan out of the stroller. After the little guy was taken out, he didn't hum. He grabbed it in the air with his small hand, and then looked around with big curious eyes.
Look at Qin's mother mowing at the grave, Qin Lang mowing at another grave, and Qin's father squatting at the grave and whispering to the grave.
Then he turned his head and looked into the distance.
Look here, look there.
I'm not afraid there are two graves here.
Su Shihan doesn't understand the rules of ancestor worship, because her parents are doing these things when she goes back to the Tomb Sweeping Day every year. She only needs to worship three times when she is burning incense.
After the grass at the grave was cut, Qin Lang and Qin Ma came down and began to pour wine into the wine glass, burn paper money and light incense candles.
After inserting the incense candle, start burning incense.
After burning, there was smoke. Su Shihan looked at the direction, holding Dabao in one hand and pushing Yutong's stroller in another position.
Qin Ma also came to help and pushed Kexin and Xuanxuan's stroller to a place without smoke.
Then tease Dabao, ”Xuanxuan, you don't lie in the stroller. You have to come out and see. Xuanxuan in our family is so brave.”
