Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11654

Yang Hua'an's tomb is located in the ancestral cemetery of the old Yang family.

In fact, until now, the so-called ancestral cemetery of the Yang family is really a mess.

The so-called ancestral grave, going back in time, actually includes Old Yang's grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, and biological mother, Little Old Yang, Little Old Yang's wife, as well as Yang Hua'an, Yang Hualin, and Yang, among others.

As for Old Yang's grandparents, they were not buried here, but in Yuncheng in the south.

More than ten years ago, Old Yang asked Yang Huaming, Yang Ruoqing and others to go to Yuncheng to recognize their relatives, recognize their ancestors with the Yang family there, and bring the tablet of an ancestor to Changping Village.

Later, the Yang family in Yuncheng... disappeared.

Today, only the Yang family in Changping Village remains. The old Yang family here are all descendants of old Yang’s grandparents who stayed here, and they also constitute the clan of the old Yang family.

However, there are only about five or six clan members in total, and Old Yang has only one son, who has passed away. His grandson lives away from home all year round and rarely comes back.

Therefore, the old Yang family in Changping Village today specifically refers to the lineage to which Old Yang and the Tan family belong. This lineage is very powerful and has produced many great figures.

There are both men and women, and I will not go into details here.

At this moment, the large group of people spent less than half an hour crossing mountains and rivers and finally arrived at the ancestral cemetery of the old Yang family.

"Everyone stop and listen to me." Old Yang led the team here personally. Although the old man is over 80 years old, his body is very strong.

Crossing mountains and rivers is no problem for him. At this moment, he was standing at the front of the team. He stood on a stone, raised his hands to the people behind him, and made a gesture of silence.

Everyone below raised their heads and looked at the old man on the commanding heights.

"Today, our main purpose of coming to the mountain is to save the boss Hua An. This must be the first priority."

"Secondly, since we have a large group of people going into the mountains and have brought all our gear with us, why don't we just clean up the ancestral graves of our Yang family, pull out the weeds, chop the dead branches and leaves, and pick up the dead branches and leaves, and clean up the house for our ancestors and deceased relatives, okay?"

"to make!"

"Okay, let's do the taboo first. After that, the third brother will assign specific tasks to everyone!"

In front of the ancestral tomb.

Everyone was a little dumbfounded when they saw the scene before them.

Yang Yongqing scratched his head and looked around, then asked Yang Huazhong: "Uncle San, are you sure this is our ancestral grave? Why does it look so unfamiliar to me?"

Yang Yongjin turned his head and glared at Yang Yongqing: "Why do you look unfamiliar? I was here last month during the Qingming Festival."

Yang Yongzhi said: "To be honest, I also feel that it is unfamiliar, really..."

Yang Huazhong looked around and said, "It may be because the grass and trees have grown too fast in the past month or so. In addition, we didn't take care of them during the Qingming Festival last time and let them grow wildly. Now they have grown so fast... we can hardly get in!"

Indeed, it is no wonder that Yang Huazhong spoke in an exaggerated manner. Bamboo, maple trees, azaleas, thorns everywhere, and many trees and weeds that cannot be named, all grew lushly around the dozen or so graves, like a pair of huge and dense hands, holding the cemetery tightly in their palms. It does not look like a ancestral grave at all, but a small bamboo garden.

"The plan has changed. We have to clear a piece of land first, otherwise there will be no place to put the offerings. What do you think, Dad?" Yang Huazhong had no choice but to go to Old Yang and ask for instructions to change today's steps.

Old Yang had also been sizing up the situation. Hearing this, he could only nod and say, "Alright, hurry up and clear a passage to your eldest brother's grave first. After you've finished offering sacrifices, it won't be too late to clean up other places later."

Yang Huazhong understood that there was no time to waste.

"it is good!"

Next, Yang Huazhong began to distribute tools to everyone, including hatchets, axes, hoes, shovels, and twine gloves.

The men were responsible for cutting down the trees, weeds and thorns, while the women followed behind, tying up those things with ropes made of rattan or straw brought from home. They would then take them down the mountain on their way home and put them on the mule cart at the foot of the mountain to dry and cut for a few days. It was like going up the mountain to collect firewood, killing two birds with one stone.

Yang Ruoqing also joined the busy team, and from time to time she glanced at the children not far away. The children were left there with Linglan, Shaoyao, Xiuhong and others to look after them, and they were not allowed to run around.

After a busy period, everyone cleared a passage and a space in front of Yang Hua'an's grave to place offerings and the brazier for burning paper money.

Yang Huazhong led Yang Yongjin to squat in front of the grave to place offerings and burn paper.

Yang Huazhou led everyone and began to line up in several rows in front of the grave according to their age and seniority.

Old Yang, being Yang Hua'an's father, stood not far away, holding a pipe in his mouth, smoking it intermittently, with tears welling up in his cloudy eyes, as he kowtowed and knelt down at the sight of the people in front of him.

The old man blew out a smoke ring, and his eyes slowly moved from the crowd to the grave of Yang Huaan, who had been cleaned up. He stared at it for a long time, and the old man couldn't help but let tears roll down from the corners of his eyes. He turned sideways and raised his head to look at the mountains behind him. Beyond the mountains were mountains, and there were mountains all around, layer upon layer, with blue sky and white clouds...

Boss, it would be great if you were still alive!
People, it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. No matter how lively things are after death, it is meaningless. Only when you are alive, can you eat, run, drink and sleep, you have gained.

Boss, if I could, I would like to give you some of my life span, but unfortunately, the King of Hell won’t allow it…

As for the others, after the ceremony, everyone rested on the spot, drank some tea they brought from home, and ate some snacks to replenish their energy.

Then, as usual, the children were taken to play nearby while the adults continued to work. Since they were all here today, they might as well clean up the ancestral grave site in one go.

Because the next time I came to the mountains was the Ullambana Festival on July 15th a few months later. Maybe the weather was too hot at that time and people would not clean up the graves. So, we had to wait until the twelfth month of the year to go into the mountains to worship our ancestors and clean up the graves.

A pass busy.

The sun moved silently overhead.

The children were too hot, so Lily of the Valley and Peony took them to a nearby grove to cool off.

After a while, suddenly, Lily of the Valley and Peony came over in a panic with their children.

"What's going on?" Yang Ruoqing was the first to notice something was wrong and quickly put down what she was doing and went over to meet him.

Logically speaking, there should be no wild animals in this grove. Even if there were, they should have been scared away by the firecrackers set off by everyone.

But the lily of the valley said, "There is a cave over there in the woods, and there is movement in the cave."

Is there any movement?
Yang Ruoqing was surprised and glanced at the children. Except for Niu Niu, Jun'er and Yongxiao, who were too young to come, all the other children in the family came.
