Rebirth: I Raise a Husband in Another World
Chapter 24 Ancestor Worship at Qingming Festival
Lin Han stood at the door and shouted: "Auntie, are you home? Is anyone home?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Aunt Zhang replied, "Yes, yes, yes. What's up, Lin Han?"
Lin Han took the seeds and walked back: "Then I came in, Auntie. It's like this. I've finished planting my land, but I still have some seeds left. I'll give them back to you."
After a while, Lin Han arrived at the door of Aunt Zhang's house.
Aunt Zhang: "Oh, just keep the rest for yourself. Why bring it back? What if you need it in the future?"
Lin Han scratched his head: "Well, I don't think I will be able to use these seeds until at least next spring.
Instead of wasting it with me, why not return it to you? You have plenty of land at home, so you can use it if you want to grow vegetables?"
Aunt Zhang looked at Lin Han's smiling face and didn't know what to say.
He sighed: "You are good in everything except being too polite. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Thick skin pays off'?
But with your physique and strength, you can still eat your fill even if you're not thick-skinned."
Lin Han felt embarrassed by the praise. If his teammates from his previous life saw him like this, they would be shocked.
Teammate: Boss, didn’t you always believe in taking what you need? When did you become so shameless? Did you go to Northeast China to get a bath?
Lin Han: What are you talking about? I have always been thin-skinned. What happened before was due to the environment.
Teammate: Tsk~ That was all due to the environment~ (Refer to Ali Gaduomei Yangyangsan's tone)
Sorry, let’s get back to the topic.
Lin Han: "Then, Auntie, where should I put the seeds?"
Aunt Zhang was still putting things for the Qingming Festival ancestor worship and tomb sweeping into her backpack. Hearing this, she didn't even look up and casually pointed to the location of the table.
Said: "Yes, just put it on the table."
As soon as Lin Han came in, Aunt Zhang had been busy putting things into the backpack. She could see it clearly from where Lin Han was standing.
Aunt Zhang packed some candles, incense, wine, paper money, green rice dumplings and firecrackers.
Lin Han looked at these things and couldn't help wondering: "Paper money, firecrackers, are there any festivals these two days?"
Please forgive him for not remembering that it was Qingming Festival. Since the end of the world, humans have been waking up every day to fight zombies and have long forgotten the time of traditional festivals.
So Lin Han asked what he thought was the dumbest question he had ever asked: "Auntie, are there any festivals these two days? Why are you packing all these things?"
Aunt Zhang laughed when she asked this question. She was surprised and asked, "Lin Han, are you dreaming?
Tomorrow is Qingming Festival, don't you have anything to prepare?"
Hearing this, Lin Han was shocked: What! It's actually the Qingming Festival, what a stupid question I asked.
Oh my God, I haven’t prepared anything. Is it too late to buy anything now? It’s too late to get to town without a car.
It doesn't matter. Qingming Festival ancestor worship only requires a few things. As long as paper money, incense, candles, firecrackers and wine are there, it doesn't matter whether the other things are there or not.
I have candles at home, and you can ask Aunt Zhang if she has the others. If she does, I'll buy some for her. If not, I'll go to the village chief's house and ask. Okay, that's what I'll do.
Lin Han's brain worked at high speed and he quickly came up with a solution.
He calmly asked Aunt Zhang: "Aunt, you know that I have been living in a daze these days and I don't even know who I am.
I forgot about Qingming Festival and didn't prepare anything. Does your family have any extra paper money, incense, firecrackers, or wine? If so, I can buy some."
At first, she didn't understand why he forgot about Qingming Festival, but after hearing his explanation, Aunt Zhang said she could understand.
After all, young people are forgetful. Now they live alone and have no relatives at home. It is normal that they cannot take care of some things.
Every household prepares things for ancestor worship. After all, ancestors need to be worshipped not only on Qingming Festival, but also on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Aunt Zhang: "Hey, it's not a big deal. I have plenty at home. How much do you want?"
When Lin Han was in modern times, his parents prepared the items for ancestor worship at home, and he would just go with them to sweep the graves.
I've never prepared it myself, so I don't know how much I need.
Not to mention the end of the world, you don’t know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident, so how can you care about worshiping your ancestors?
Now I don’t know how much I need. If I had known this earlier, I should have learned more knowledge when my parents were around, otherwise I wouldn’t be so blind now, Lin Han thought.
Lin Han smiled awkwardly and asked shamelessly, "Auntie, these things are usually prepared by my parents. I don't know how much I should ask for. How about you give me what you think is right?"
His words made Aunt Zhang feel guilty, and she was very upset: Oh my God, why am I so bad at speaking.
Lin Han's parents have both passed away, and he is now the only one left in the family. From his demeanor, it can be seen that his family conditions were not bad before.
I should have thought that he didn't need to prepare these things. Didn't I just hit a sore spot by asking this question? Oh, I really am. Look at my mouth.
Aunt Zhang's eyes were full of guilt, and she quickly comforted Lin Han: "It's okay, Lin Han, it was my fault just now. I forgot about your family's situation.
Just tell me how many graves you want to sweep, and I'll know how much you need."
Lin Han didn't expect Aunt Zhang to be so sentimental, but it didn't do him any harm, and he was very touched.
Lin Han did not find any information about the graves of the original owner's parents from the original owner's memory, so he planned to build a new grave for the original owner's parents and also one for the original owner.
Lin Han: "Auntie, I'm sweeping two graves."
Aunt Zhang asked again: "Are these two graves in the same place, or are they separate?"
Lin Han: "In the same place."
Aunt Zhang thought for a moment and said, "If the two graves are in the same place, all you need is a handful of incense, two strings of firecrackers, and a stack of paper money. As for the wine, a little in a water gourd will be enough."
Aunt Zhang took out the things and handed them to Lin Han as she spoke.
Lin Han: "Okay, thank you, Auntie. I understand that you didn't charge me for the seeds before.
But you have to pay for these, after all, you bought them with your own money, right? How much are these, Auntie?"
Aunt Zhang originally wanted to say that she would not accept the money, but seeing that Lin Han was so determined, it would be inappropriate not to accept the money.
So he decided to charge her according to the original price she bought it for. "Okay, then you can just give me ten cents."
Lin Han: "It's so cheap, Auntie, please don't cheat me."
Aunt Zhang thought to herself: This kid is too cunning. Fortunately, I didn't let him get away with it.
Aunt Zhang calculated the market price and was not afraid of Lin Han's questions. She was very confident.
"If you don't believe me, just go out and ask around. The things my aunt bought are the cheapest and lowest quality ones at the market, and they're only worth this much."
Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening everyone!
