Woman 30: I regained my life after divorce

Zhou Honghai walked to the end of the field and took off the shovel and pickaxe from his shoulders.

Zhou Xinyao followed and came to the end of the field.

I saw that this was a small piece of land, with short tombs located in an orderly manner.

Zhou Xinyao remembered coming here with her father when she was a child. It’s just that more than twenty years have passed...

"Xinyao, do you remember that I brought you here?"

Zhou Honghai turned around and looked at Zhou Xinyao with a smile.

Zhou Xinyao nodded slightly, I remember.

Zhou Honghai sighed and smiled happily.

"Just remember, this is the ancestral grave of our old Zhou family. This one belongs to your grandparents, and that one belongs to your great-grandfather and great-grandmother..."

Zhou Honghai was afraid that Zhou Xinyao would forget, so he introduced them one by one.

Zhou Xinyao had mixed feelings, and tears had already blurred her eyes.

After burning paper on each grave, Zhou Honghai returned to the field and took the package from Zhou Xinyao.

"According to seniority, your brother should be buried in this row. He is the first one in this row..."

Zhou Honghai couldn't help crying as he spoke.

"dad……"

Even with thousands of words on her lips, Zhou Xinyao didn't know how to comfort her father.

Crying may be a kind of release.

Zhou Honghai held the package and cried for several minutes. He slowly raised his head and stared straight ahead.

"According to our customs here, someone like your brother who got into trouble and died outside cannot enter the ancestral grave. We can't violate the rules of our ancestors, so let's bury him under the ground."

Zhou Honghai said as he hugged the package and came to the front of the field.

Zhou Xinyao also followed and saw that a small pit half a meter deep had just been dug under the ground. Compared with other tombs, this small pit looks a bit shabby.

"Tianlin, don't blame dad. You can rest here first, and dad will come find you later~"

"dad……"

Zhou Honghai's words were like sharp knives piercing Zhou Xinyao's heart.

"Dad, I don't allow you to say such things, I want you to live well," Zhou Xinyao said resolutely.

"Live well? Oh~ live well..."

Zhou Honghai sighed, maybe in his heart, he no longer has any attachment to life.

Without enough time to feel too sad, Zhou Honghai carefully put the package into the pit.

"Tianlin, please feel aggrieved here for now. When you have time and a place, I will move you to a better place."

Zhou Honghai murmured to himself, went to the edge of the field, picked up a shovel, and filled in the small hole bit by bit.

"Xin Yao, you have to remember this place~ I don't expect you to come visit us once a year in the future, just remember where we are buried."

"Dad... please stop talking..."

These words really hurt Zhou Xinyao like a thousand arrows piercing her heart.

Suddenly, beams of bright light came from the path next to them and shone on the two of them.

Zhou Xinyao suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Old Zhou, I could have guessed that you would come here."

A short, fat, middle-aged man walked over with a flashlight.

Zhou Xinyao also recognized that this person was the head of their village.

"How are you, fourth uncle~"

Zhou Xinyao forced a smile and greeted.

The village chief ignored Zhou Xinyao and walked straight towards Zhou Honghai.

Zhou Honghai smiled slightly and greeted: "Hong Liang~"

The village chief glanced at the newly filled grave and smiled contemptuously.

"Did you bury Tianlin here?"

Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Zhou Honghai had no choice but to say frankly: "Yes, I will bury him here."

"Hong Hai, do you know the rules here?" Zhou Hongliang asked in a low but oppressive voice.

Zhou Honghai timidly replied: "I know."

"You still bury me here after knowing it? Not only do you disrespect the old Zhou family, you also don't take these people in our countryside seriously."

Zhou Hongliang said, turning around and looking at the few people below the ground.

Zhou Xinyao followed Zhou Hongliang's eyes and looked down. She had seen all these people, and some were even close relatives of her own family.

"Uncle, are you here too?"

Seeing her uncle standing at the bottom of the field, Zhou Xinyao hurried up to say hello.

"Coming~"

Zhou Hongjiang replied coldly, with his hands on his chest and an angry expression.

Zhou Xinyao smiled awkwardly and stood aside a little unnecessarily.

"I also know the customs of my family, so I didn't bury Tianlin in the ancestral grave."

Zhou Honghai said, pointing to the rows of staggered tombs.

“But I’m afraid it’s not okay to bury it here, right?”

The village chief said and looked down at the head of the field again.

None of the people standing below the ground looked good.

Zhou Honghai knew that he was indeed in the wrong, so he asked humbly and pitifully: "Then where do you think Tian Lin should be buried? We can't let him wander away all the time, right?"

The village chief smiled slyly and said, "I know a good place to bury it, just next to the big willow tree at the west end of the village."

Zhou Honghai was suddenly startled and said with a wry smile: "That place is not very good, there are some buried there over the years..."

Zhou Honghai did not continue speaking for fear of upsetting some people.

For many years, the people buried in that place were all the criminals who were not allowed to enter the ancestral graves according to Ke Ming's order.

Zhou Honghai really couldn't bear to bury his beloved son in that place.

"It's not like you can't see him if he's buried there. I think it's pretty good~"

Zhou Xinyao saw that Zhou Honghai was crushed, so she stepped forward and said: "It's not good, the people buried there are..."

Zhou Hongliang raised a cold eyebrow and threw the cigarette in his hand heavily on the ground.

"What's buried there?"

The tone of Zhou Hongliang's words sounded as if he wanted to eat people.

Zhou Xinyao took the initiative to greet him just now, but he didn't even acknowledge her, and now her tone was so aggressive.

Zhou Xinyao couldn't stand it anymore, so she replied in a higher tone: "The people buried there are all evil and unforgivable people."

"Yes, it must have been over a hundred years. Those buried there are all things that were hacked and hacked to pieces."

Zhou Hongliang said, walking around Zhou Xinyao, and continued: "But your brother is not a good thing, so I won't wrong him if he is buried there."

Zhou Xinyao suddenly turned red with anger and wanted to curse.

For the sake of the fellow villagers, Zhou Xinyao swallowed her anger and continued with a smile:

"Village Chief, it's a new era now, so don't talk about those customs and rules. The person is gone, so let him be buried here safely."

"Are you educating me? Do I need your education? It takes a few days to study, right?"

Zhou Hongliang blew his beard and stared at Zhou Xinyao.

"I didn't educate you, I just wanted to say..."

"Stop talking, dig out the things and take them away!"
