The Return of the General to the Field

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the sky began to rain early, but this did not hinder today's activities.

Waking up on a big beech bed, Meng Wu looked at someone who was shrinking into his arms again. An emotion called satisfaction filled every cell of him, thinking of the words that Ah Heqian had ordered ten thousand times last night. Emphasizing to himself that he must be told to get up early, Meng Wu playfully pinched his husband's nose. "Hmm~~" Xia He groaned, his eyelashes trembled, and he opened his eyes. "Husband?" "Didn't you say you want to get up early? Get up." Meng Wu put down his hands as if nothing had happened, lifted the quilt and got out of bed. .

Xia He himself doesn't know that he still has the attribute of staying in bed. In the past, he had to get up early and work in the dark every day. Naturally, he was not qualified to sleep late. Some time ago when he was with her husband, he would habitually get up early. How about lying in bed early in the morning?It must be that the quilt is too warm in winter.

Xia He yawned, took the clothes Meng Wu put on the bed and began to put them on.Meng Wu had already started to light a fire in the kitchen. Although he couldn't help much in the kitchen, he still knew how to light a fire.

Xia He first cooked a large pot of glutinous rice balls for breakfast. He said that the most amazing thing about his husband is the amount of food. He can eat the usual three men's portions, and he eats in a hurry. Usually, he eats half of it. Putting down the bowl, he picked some dishes and put them into his mouth from time to time, watching himself eat with great interest. The key is that although my husband eats fast, he is not rude, which makes people hate, but he has a sense of ease.Putting away the bowl and letting Meng Wuna wash it, Xia He put the pot on the stove, poured a small amount of vegetable oil, and started frying things like rice cakes and glutinous rice blood sausage.Fry a small bowl of each, and take a bowl of sweet cakes, a bowl of crisp sugar, a pot of wine, a few empty bowls, and a handful of incense. Xia He shouted to Meng Wu outside the kitchen: "Husband, it's done, Bring the firecrackers, let's go!" Meng Wu put the disc-shaped firecrackers into the bag, and threw a few fireworks into it by the way, although they couldn't be seen during the day, they sounded good.

After walking out of the village, Meng Wu saw Xia He walking on the muddy mountain road with a basket in his arms, so he was afraid that he would fall, so he simply put his arms around his waist. Xia He held the basket in one hand and a paper umbrella in the other, thinking: The mountain road is not wide , and walk side by side, not afraid of accidents, forget it, my husband always does things that I don't understand.Xia He leaned a little further into Meng Wu's arms.

The two went to the tomb of Meng Wu's grandfather Ah Mo first, perhaps because they came early and did not meet anyone who was an eyesore.Meng Wu hung up a string of firecrackers, Xia He first cleared a small space in front of the tomb, placed the things he brought one by one, inserted the three lit incense sticks in the gap between the tombstone and the ground, and then lit the tombstone. Pass it to Meng Wu.Meng Wu lit the fuse of the firecrackers, and the sound of crackling firecrackers echoed in the mountains.

The ones lying on the ground were not Meng Wu’s own grandparents. It was hard for him to have any emotions. Meng Wu didn’t speak, and Xia He didn’t say anything. After the firecrackers were burned, Meng Wu told Xia He to pack up and rush to the next place. .

This is the tomb of Meng Wu's father and father. The two tombs are very close to each other and stand side by side under the shade of trees. Like the previous two tombs, Meng Wu didn't have any extra emotions when looking at these two tombs, but after all Even if he occupied the body of his son, Meng Wu respectfully held the incense in both hands and made three bows.

Meng Wu went to light firecrackers, Xia He laid out things one by one, unlike Meng Wu, he was very excited, "Father, Dad, I am your son's husband Xia He, you must see Me when I was a child. My husband just married me this year. Although I am not good-looking, I must be a good person. I will take good care of my husband. I like him very much and he is satisfied with me. I hope you will not dislike me Me. Father, Dad, I will live a good life with my husband, I hope you can bless my husband and me in heaven. "

Meng Wu was standing a few steps away, the deafening sound of firecrackers made it difficult for him to hear what Xia He was saying, but it was those words, Meng Wu just stood aside and looked at the devout people in front of the tomb.

"Husband, I'm back." Xia He packed up his things and greeted Meng Wu. Meng Wu mentioned that there were two firecrackers and a bag of fireworks left, and walked to Xia He and said, "No, let's go see my father-in-law." , Really!" Xia He's eyes were full of surprise. "Of course! Will I still lie to you?" Xia He was very excited when he heard the affirmative answer, and thanked God once again for allowing himself to become this person's husband by mistake.Xia He held a basket in one hand and an umbrella in the other, with tears on his face that seemed to be crying and not falling.

According to folk customs, after a brother marries a man, he is a member of his husband's family, and he is not eligible to go to his family to worship ancestors and visit graves. Xia Cheng is an outsider, and Xia He is his only descendant. If Xia He does not go, it is equivalent to No one can go to pay homage to him.How pitiful and pathetic!

Father has a very special meaning to Xia He.Meng Tao beat him hard when he was a child, and he would sneak to his father's grave and cry about his grievances, as if he was being hurt by someone, but when he became more sensible, he didn't go there anymore, after all, he knew how to do this at that time It didn't have any effect, and it made my father worry about himself under Jiuquan.

The father's grave was overgrown with weeds, and the weeds turned yellow and lodging in winter, making it even more desolate.Xia He laid out the things one by one again and lit the incense.Meng Wu lit all the remaining fireworks and firecrackers, and let the exploded red debris fall on his hair and shoulders.

"Father, Ah He came to see you. I haven't been here for a long time. I'm afraid my father is worried. Father, I am living a good life now. I am married and my husband treats me very well. You don't have to worry about me anymore down here." ..." As he spoke, Xia He couldn't help crying. Xia He never cried out, just choked up and let the tears flow. This is a habit developed over the years. If you cry out loud, you will be beaten It was even more powerful, and it would make the two stepbrothers clap their hands and laugh with joy. Over time, Xia He would never cry again.It's just that every time Xia He cries like this, Meng Wu feels very distressed. Meng Wu knows that Xia He needs to vent like this, but he can't see Xia He cry after all. He walks over and helps Xia He to lean against him On the shoulder, a big hand patted Xia He's back, "Ahe, don't cry, my father-in-law will probably think I'm bullying you when he sees it."

Xia He gradually stopped crying, Meng Wu helped him wipe away his tears, and he turned his face away in embarrassment.I couldn't control my emotions for a moment so that my husband saw the joke.Seeing that Xia He had stabilized his emotions, Meng Wu pulled Xia He to kneel down in front of the grave, "Father-in-law, I am Meng Wu, Ah He's husband, and I swear that I will treat Ah He well for the rest of my life. Please rest assured and hand over your son to me. He turned to look at Xia He, "If I can't do it, let my father-in-law come and settle the score with me."

Xia He had never felt so relaxed. The drizzle was still falling. Meng Wu held an umbrella in one hand and put his arms around him in the other. The two walked back slowly.
