The husband is the hunter

Chapter 52

Visiting Shen's grave is not an ordinary thing for the Fang family sisters.

The three sisters were silent all the way, especially Fang Lin.The oiled paper bag containing the incense paper money in her hand was crumpled by her. Fang Li glanced at her worriedly, and asked her younger sister in a low voice, "Sister Min, what's the matter, big sister?"

Fang Minxu, who is always full of energy, has been too busy these two days, and there is a faint bruise in her eyes. Hearing the second sister's question, she raised her head and said in an uncertain tone, "Probably because I am afraid that mother will worry, after all Eldest sister has always been filial and severed ties with the Fang family, although it is reasonable to marry elder brother Duan, it is inappropriate in the eyes of outsiders."

Fang Min's words are not unreasonable, but Fang Lin has thought about it a long time ago. There is no mother in the world who does not want her children to live a good life. She thinks that Mrs. Shen will understand her decision, and what makes Fang Lin angry at this moment is another thing.

When Mrs. Shen passed away, Mrs. Fang didn't want to bury her in the family's cemetery, saying that it was a bad luck. In the future, the descendants of the Fang family would not be able to have a son. Naturally, the Shen family couldn't tolerate it, and the two families had a lot of quarrels. God, the corpse really can't be put away anymore. Fang Lin, who was only ten years old at the time, said that her mother liked the scenery in the mountains the most, and she wanted to bury her mother in a small mountain not far from the village. Only after the war ceased, a lively funeral was held.

In the first one or two years, Fang Laosan would take them to the graves to pay respects. Later, when Mrs. Hu entered the house, she never went there again. Even on the Ching Ming Festival, Mrs. Hu used the excuse that her father would handle it because her family was busy. Let sister Fang Lin work at home.

Fang Lin always thought that her mother always thought about her father before she was alive, and that even if her father didn't miss her love, he would miss her kindly. , The road leading to Shen's tomb is knee-deep in weeds, and there is no sign of anyone stepping on it at all, which only shows that no one has been here for a long time.

The distance is not far, passing through the grass where the road can no longer be seen clearly, a small solitary grave can be seen standing there in the distance.

The grave was also overgrown with weeds, and Fang Min tripped on the sole of his foot, only to find that an unknown animal had dug a nest in the grass.On the left and right of the grave, two willow trees that have lost all their leaves are swaying their branches in the wind.As the saying goes, willows are planted to make shade. This tree was the day Shen was buried. Fang Lin broke branches from the mountain and planted them here. Ten years later, the willows have grown into trees as thick as bowls, and the three sisters have grown up. .

Fang Lin put down the candle paper money in her hand, took the shovel in Fang Min's hand, and cleaned up the weeds near the grave. Fang Li and Fang Min seemed to realize that the desolation here was chilling, and they followed Behind Fang Li, the weeds that had been cut off by the roots were gathered together and burned, exposing the yellowish-brown surface of the land.

After finishing all this, Fang Lin led her two younger sisters to kowtow to Mrs. Shen three times in front of the grave, and then took out the joss paper money and set them up.

Fang Min took out a flint from his sleeve and handed it to Fang Lin. With a bang, the sparks fell on the paper money and ignited with the wind. Fang Lin lit the candle again, staring at the new soil just dug up from the grave, and endured it for a long time. Tears finally flowed down.
