Picking mulberries

Seeing that the Ching Ming Festival is approaching, because Cui Shicheng and Cui Shiying have been thinking about repairing the graves for their parents, Qiu Yang wanted to help them fulfill their wishes during the Ching Ming Festival.

Qiu Yang called his uncle at home and asked him to help find a Feng Shui master.When Qiu Jingdong heard that his nephew was moving the ancestral grave for the boss of the company, he was very concerned. Not only did he provide Qiu Yang with several, but he also detailed their "performance" one by one, so that Qiu Yang could choose among them.Qiu Yang relayed his uncle's introduction to Cui Shicheng, the two discussed for a long time, and finally chose a Feng Shui master who often helps people find burial places.

"You are a real person, you are too superstitious, you are nagging." Cui Dongxu saw that Qiu Yang's mobile phone was constantly chattering with his uncle every now and then, so he couldn't help but say something.

"This can't be careless," Qiu Yang said seriously, "Some Fengshui masters are good at choosing the foundation of houses, some Fengshui masters are good at choosing the site of temples, and some Fengshui masters are good at choosing the site of tombs. Like our college, there are divisions of majors."

"Hey, I see you, wearing a cassock is a Buddha, and wearing a Taoist robe is a celestial master, superstitious enough." Cui Dongxu was speechless, what a ghost, what kind of education did this guy grow up with? Could it be that he was entrusted in the temple since he was a child.

"You're attacking our faith again, isn't it? It's agreed that we want to share the beauty while reserving differences." Cui Shicheng was very pleased to see that Qiu Yang cared so much about his parents.

"There is a limit to seeking common ground while reserving differences. You are a bit deeply poisoned by the feudal legacy." As an atheist who has been educated by the party for many years, Cui Dongxu is already very tolerant in some aspects, but in order to move a grave, he made it so cumbersome. It's hard to see it.

"How can it be said that this is a feudal legacy?" Qiu Yang said tirelessly, "Feng Shui has always been based on science, otherwise how could it have been passed down for thousands of years, not to mention the folk, it is just the gentry who have read poetry and books It is also its loyal supporter. Take an example, some people have been buried for hundreds of years, why is the body still not decomposed?"

"That's because he was rich when he was alive, and his descendants have the capital to take anti-corruption measures for him after his death." Cui Dongxu said angrily.

"There are many ancient tombs excavated, and the funerary objects are dazzling and magnificent, but the coffins have rotted long ago, and the bones are not left, while some tombs are shabby with shabby objects but the bones are still very complete. What does it mean? It also depends on the feng shui of the burial site. Looking at the feng shui, it involves the direction of the sun and the shade, the direction of the water potential of the mountain, the microclimate formed by the entire surrounding environment, etc. With a shovel and a shovel, one can analyze the water filtration from the sand content in the mud. Well, by looking at the flowers and plants on the ground, you can tell the pH of the soil, and by comparing the extension direction and density of the surrounding branches, you can judge the soil erosion on the ground. Feng Shui actually has a lot of knowledge in it, not a sentence The legacy of feudal society can be obliterated. Why when it comes to Feng Shui, people nowadays, especially party members like Xu Xu, conclude that it is superstition, and believing in Feng Shui is a manifestation of ignorance. This is because the level of science and technology in the past was not high, and many The phenomenon cannot be explained in current scientific terms. Even if it can be explained, ordinary people will not understand it if they tell him, and no one cares. Therefore, Mr. Feng Shui likes to associate these taboos in Feng Shui with the ghosts and gods that ordinary people fear. At the same time, it is very mysterious and mysterious. If you choose this piece of land, your descendants will have no worries about food and clothing. If you choose that piece of land, you will have a small disaster every year and a big disaster every three years. When you hear this, the common people will be jealous. Do you understand the real reason? It's not that important anymore."

"Okay, okay, for the sake of your good looks, I'll trust you." This guy didn't talk nonsense in front of him once or twice. Thousands of sentences can't refute him at all, forget it, let him go.

"Don't dislike what A Yang said. You are a senior intellectual and a famous university professor. Teaching and educating people has influenced a large number of people. You should respect science and stop labeling us feudal superstition." Cui Shicheng After listening to Qiu Yang's long speech, it was very to his liking, and he liked this "illegitimate child" more and more, but he didn't want to see his own son any more.

"Okay, I'll convince you guys." Cui Dongxu shook his head with a wry smile.

"Whether you believe it or not, you have to go with us when your grandparents move their graves, and you have to do a good job in the procedures that your descendants should do." Qiu Yang was lenient, with the air of being in charge .

"Of course I will. I just oppose you pretending to be a god and a ghost. I'm not a [-] who doesn't understand the world. Do whatever you want. Respecting the dead is the most basic human nature, let alone my grandparents." Cui Dongxu nodded.

"Son, I'm relieved when you say that." Cui Shicheng was quite satisfied, and wondered in his heart whether Qiu Yang was more considerate than me in considering this family.

"I said, Layman Qiu," Cui Dongxu said playfully, "Didn't you say that the company's affairs are relatively busy recently, and you two who are at the helm don't care about it, so you won't be afraid of any trouble."

"The company has its own rules and regulations, and the factory has its own system. Follow the steps and manage people. If A Yang and I divert our attention a little bit, what can happen? Recently, you always speak out of order. I really don't like to listen to it." Cui Shicheng heard, Not happy anymore.

"Company affairs are important, but housework is more important." Qiu Yang said to Cui Dongxu.

"Housework?" Cui Dongxu was taken aback for a moment. This household chore is also the Cui family's chore, so it has nothing to do with your old Qiu family.

"Of course it's housework. Although my daughter-in-law can't be on the stage, she still knows some rural etiquette. It's not right to help Uncle Cui." Qiu Yang's face was not red and his heart was beating.

"Daughter-in-law?" Cui Dongxu couldn't close his mouth in shock, wishing he could tear the brat's mouth open.That's fine, you little goblin is well-trained.

"Daughter-in-law? I'm afraid that's not the case." Cui Shicheng, an old goblin, is even more capable of cultivation.

"Well, even if it is a son-in-law, as the old saying goes, a son-in-law is worth a son-in-law, and it has to be your own housework." Qiu Yang said with a smile.

"Well, that's the reason." Cui Shicheng nodded.

"Daughter... son-in-law?!" Cui Dongxu's brain short-circuited for a while, and he couldn't remember it for a long time. What kind of treasure is this young and old playing here?

"You can call him whatever you like, I don't care." Qiu Yang pursed his lips in joy.

"I have something to say," Cui Dongxu pinched Qiu Yang fiercely, "The skin is getting thicker and thicker, it will be impossible if you don't cut it for you."

"We still have a long way to go, and there are still many problems to be solved. If you don't have a thick skin, how can you handle it? If you don't have a thick skin, you won't be able to withstand the repeated bombings of my parents in the future." Qiu Yang was right.

"That's right, that's the reason." Cui Shicheng still had the same expression.

"Dad, you know this sentence, right?" Cui Dongxu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Didn't I express my attitude to you a long time ago, of course you have to go on your own way in the future, you can't always stand still."

"Even if you tolerate us, there's no need to be so over the top." Cui Dongxu sighed, it's really close to Zhu Zhechi and Mo Zhehei, after staying with this little wonder for a long time, his own father has finally become an old man Wonderful.

"I have been conquered by A Yang a long time ago. I just like him. Why don't I recognize him as my son-in-law? There are so many people in the company who say that A Yang is my illegitimate son, but I haven't refuted the rumors. If you play the trumpet everywhere, you will overdo it."

"You're awesome, I'm convinced of You." What kind of world is this, why can't you get used to it all of a sudden, Cui Dongxu said angrily, "If this is the case, why don't you recognize him as your son? It's easier."

"It's a good idea, Ayang, what do you think?" Cui Shicheng struck while the iron was hot.

"Okay, Dad." Qiu Yang immediately climbed along the pole, and it was a slippery climb.

"Oh, I have a headache. You guys continue to discuss your great achievements. I'll go upstairs and lie down for a while." Cui Dongxu couldn't digest it for a while, and went upstairs with his forehead pressed.

Qiu Yang invited Cui Shiying, who was watching TV in the living room, to the Buddhist hall in the west hall, and consulted her on matters such as whether the materials for the coffin and the tombstone should be buried together.Cui Shiying and Cui Shicheng discussed for a long time, and decided to bury their parents together, and the coffin should be made of old cypress.

In the next few days, Cui Shicheng and Qiu Yang ran around the countryside very frequently, and sometimes when they returned home, it was already midnight.Cui Dongxu was afraid that Qiu Yang would be tired, so he reminded his father to ask Gao Minhong from the company to drive back and forth.

When it was time for the new burial, Cui Dongxu asked the school for three days off.Going back to Cui’s home in Jiepai with his aunt, Cui Dongxu was overwhelmed by the grand scene in the village. Although his grandfather’s generation did not have any brothers, everyone in the clan came from the same ancestor. For Cui Shicheng and Cui Shiying as parents The matter of moving the grave is very important, and all the family members at home come to help.What Cui Dongxu didn't expect was that his father had been away from home for half a century without hearing from Liao, yet his grandfather's homestead was still there, and it had been guarded by his grandfather's cousin named Cui Baoxian. An old man in his 90s, The body is still quite healthy.Cui Shicheng didn't understand the rural customs at all, and it was inconvenient for Qiu Yang to intervene. Cui Baoxian presided over the relocation of the grave this time.

Amidst the sound of firecrackers, the sound of funeral music, the din of banquets, the sound of Taoist priests performing rituals, and the sound of monks chanting scriptures, Cui Dongxu listened to Qiu Yang's arrangements in a daze, and when it was time to kneel down, he bowed obediently and offered incense. When it’s time to offer incense respectfully, when it’s time to toast, toast politely, and when it’s time to raise the flag, hold the flag sadly.After two days, I was exhausted.

After moving the grave, Cui Shicheng and the others stayed overnight at Cui Baoxian's grandson's house.Cui Shicheng and Qiu Yang talked with the members of the Cui clan for a long time due to various aftermath matters involved. Cui Dongxu, as the grandson of Chu Qiao, of course had to deal with the affairs on the scene and stayed up all night.

The next day, Cui Shicheng returned to Qingyuan with his parents' spiritual tablet.When they got home, Su's mother had already prepared the brazier, and everyone stepped over the brazier one by one, dusted off all their clothes, and then entered the door.Cui Shicheng placed his parents' memorial tablets beside the Buddhist hall in the West Hall, and asked Gao Minhong to book a box at Xianlai Vegetarian Restaurant.

After lunch, the whole family sat in the living room and chatted for a while. Cui Shiying told Su's mother what he had seen and heard at her natal house, and Cui Shicheng and Qiu Yang interrupted from time to time to explain.Cui Dongxu didn't have much energy at first, and he felt sleepy after eating too much, so he went to take a shower and went to bed after resting for a while.

As soon as he fell into bed, Cui Dongxu's eyelids drooped, and he felt in a daze that his body had left the bed, and he was floating out in a sea of ​​clouds, mountains and mist.

When his feet were firmly on the ground, Cui Dongxu opened his eyes and saw, isn't this the grave of his grandparents just repaired yesterday? Why is it back again?Looking to both sides, there was no one around, so Cui Dongxu got anxious and called Qiu Yang Qiu Yang at the top of his voice.After shouting for a long time, Qiu Yang didn't see him, but two muntjacs appeared suddenly, and he didn't know whether they came from the bushes behind or got out of the grave.

The two muntjacs are very cute and naive, they look like two young muntjacs.Jizi was not afraid when he saw Cui Dongxu, but instead squeezed his head to Cui Dongxu's legs, as if to comfort Cui Dongxu.Cui Dongxu saw that the two young deer were cute, so he reached out to touch their heads, but unexpectedly they ran away before they got close.Cui Dongxu looked at them disappointedly, but the two muntjacs turned their heads at the same time, as if beckoning him to follow.So, Jizi ran in front, and Cui Dongxu chased after him.After chasing and chasing, the deer ran into a piece of mulberry sea and disappeared.

Cui Dongxu, who couldn't find the deer, looked at Sanghai in front of him, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt familiar, and the more he looked, the more he felt that he had seen this scene before.After reminiscing for a long time, I suddenly realized that the same Sang Hai appeared in the dream more than ten years ago, but at that time he came chasing scarabs, and later saw a man in white who sang very nicely, and wanted to chase him. Met a fortune-telling old man with white beard.Will I be able to meet that good-looking man in white this time, or will I run into that fortune-telling old man again?

When Cui Dongxu was thinking about where to go, two people came vaguely on the opposite road. They had been talking, and they sounded like a man and a woman, and they were still very young.Cui Dongxu hurried up to greet him, and when he got closer, he said, hey, these two people are very familiar.

The two people who came from the opposite side saw Cui Dongxu, their expressions were more pleasant than Cui Dongxu's, and Dr. Cui immediately called Dr. Cui.Cui Dongxu was very happy to meet an old friend here, and when he opened his mouth to call Brother Xiucai and Sister-in-law, he suddenly felt something was wrong and couldn't call him that.Then how to call them, Cui Dongxu was stunned for a moment.

"Dr. Cui, why are you here?" the woman walked over and asked.

"Oh, I came chasing after two deer."

"Oh, my husband and I also chased those muntjacs, they are so cute, I want to take them home and raise them." The woman poked behind Cui Dongxu, "Yeah, it's right behind you, Come, come, help me drive them into the yard."

Cui Dongxu turned around and looked, sure enough, the two young deer were looking up at him.So, he folded behind the muntjac and started booming, and the two muntjacs were obedient, and they followed the couple in front with a bang.Booming and booming, Cui Dongxu felt that he was getting farther and farther away from them, so he shouted again, "Wait for me, wait for me..." With a sound of "Porong", Cui Dongxu stepped on the air and fell back.

Cui Dongxu was startled and woke up from the fright. When he opened his eyes, Qiu Yang's affectionate eyes were right in front of him. He was really frightened. He pushed him away and said angrily, "Stinky boy, You're crazy, I don't know I'm too old to be frightened."
