Chapter 868 No grass on the grave

Liu Hailong also didn't expect that the situations of two brothers who share the same mother would be so different. Of course, this must have a lot to do with one's personality, so he said with a slight surprise, "Degui is in such a miserable state now." When did this happen?”

Peng Defa sighed and said, "When we first received the demolition money, everyone was living a good life. Even if we stopped working, it would last until we were old. But the second brother was too greedy and he was not the type to do business." My son didn't know it yet, and he did business with some bad friends whom he met from somewhere, and learned a lot of bad habits. As a result, he lost all his money within two years. At that time, I tried to persuade him. After all, we are brothers, so we can't let him go all the way, right? Who knows that this unlucky thing won't listen to me, and keeps saying that we are separated from each other, so don't teach me like an elder brother is like a father. Him? Do you think it’s bad luck to have such a brother?”

Liu Hailong persuaded him a few words after hearing this, "Everyone has his own destiny. Since this is his own choice, he can't blame others... By the way, hasn't my cousin's health always been good? That year Why do people say it’s gone?”

This was Liu Hailong's casual question, but Peng Defa's expression changed unexpectedly, and he said hesitantly, "My mother... my mother's health has long been not as good as before. In the early years, the family had no money and was reluctant to go to the city. People go to big hospitals for physical examinations, and then the conditions at home finally get better, but then the person suddenly passes away. "

Seeing the difference in Peng Defa's expression, Gu Hao knew that the old lady's death was not simple, so he said to Liu Hailong, "It's a rare trip for us... why don't we pay homage to her first!"

When Liu Hailong heard this, he quickly agreed, "It's really time to visit my cousin. If she hadn't brought Haifeng to make money, how could I have been able to marry a wife at that time? It's a pity that Haifeng's life is not good... …The conditions of our two families have gradually improved, but she has no chance to see it.”

When Liu Hailong mentioned the missing Liu Haifeng, Peng Defa said with a normal expression, "This is all fate... Don't think too much, maybe Xiaofeng is enjoying happiness somewhere we don't know right now?! "

Gu Hao has always been very accurate in reading people. In addition, Peng Defa is just an ordinary person. Regardless of whether Liu Haifeng’s disappearance has anything to do with his mother, he should not be aware of it. Otherwise, when he sees Liu Hailong or hears someone mention it, He would not act so calmly when Liu Haifeng's name was mentioned... This could be seen when he just mentioned his mother's death, because he was obviously a little nervous.

After hearing this, Liu Hailong smiled bitterly and said, "I hope...then let's go see my cousin first, and then find a restaurant to eat."

Although Peng Defa didn't want to take Liu Hailong to worship his mother, he couldn't resist the over enthusiasm of his cousin and his brothers-in-law. In the end, Peng Defa had no choice but to take them to their family's old grave, which is located in In an old forest in the center of the scenic spot...

Meng Zhe and Deng Kai, who had been waiting outside, did not expect Song Jiang and the others to come out so soon, so they went to greet them. Only to find that there was a middle-aged man among their companions, and they immediately guessed that it might be Liu Hailong. A cousin, Song Jiang reacted quickly and introduced Meng Zhe and Deng Kai to Peng Defa as their friends who came to work together this time. He took the opportunity to tell Meng Zhe that they were going to pay homage to a deceased elder, and asked them if they would follow. If they didn't want to go, they could go back to the hotel on their own.

But Deng Kai has always been a man who likes to join in the fun, so he naturally refused to go back to the hotel first, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, we have nothing to do anyway, and if we go with you, we can help get things..."

When Song Jiang heard this, he glanced at Peng Defa with a guilty conscience. After all, it was somewhat strange to follow an outsider to visit the grave of someone he didn't know. However, Peng Defa did not show any doubts about this, but looked hesitant to do so. Call your unsatisfied younger brother and ask him to come with you to worship my mother. Liu Hailong saw Peng Defa's thoughts and took the initiative to say, "Would you like to ask Degui to join us...?"

Peng Defa became a little angry after hearing this and said, "I got angry when I saw that loser. He didn't come last time I asked him to come during the Qingming Festival... This unfilial descendant has wasted my mother's most beloved son in vain!!"

Although he said so, Peng Defa still called his second brother in the end. Unexpectedly, the guy was not willing to come at first. What kind of grave would he go to if he was not old enough? He also said that he was doing something outside, but later he heard Peng Defa say that Liu Hailong was here, so he reluctantly agreed...

The old tomb of the Peng family is located in the center of the scenic spot. If there are no local villagers with you, you must buy a ticket to enter. However, Song Jiang and his party took Peng Defa's minibus, so they passed the gates smoothly. , and then came to a bamboo forest.

At this time, Peng Defa parked his car on the side of the road, pointed to an old grave in the forest in front of him, and said generously, "That is the old grave of the villagers... Back then, the government took care of the elderly in the village and promised them We can forget about being buried here after we die, we have to go to the mass cemetery in the city.”

Liu Hailong nodded and said, "The environment here is indeed very good... the old people in the village are lucky!"

Unexpectedly, while the two were talking, they suddenly saw a plume of green smoke coming out of one of the tombs. It seemed that someone was worshiping, so a group of them quickly moved the burning paper and tributes from the car and placed them in front of Peng Defa. We walked into the old graveyard in Shangbao Village...

Choosing a cemetery to look at the graveyard was Gu Hao's strong point, so from the moment he got off the car, he looked at this cemetery with all his eyes and ears. As a result, when he followed Peng Defa to the tombstone of an old man named Zhao Shunfang, , his face suddenly changed slightly... In fact, Gu Hao didn't need to look at this grave at all, but anyone with eyes would be able to see that something was wrong.

It was early summer, and all the other graves in the cemetery were covered with green grass, but not a single weed grew on Zhao Shunfang's grave, which looked very abrupt. Moreover, not only was there no grass growing on the grave, but The soil in the tomb is also faintly green-black, but the mountain soil here is yellow, so this tomb looks particularly different.

Everyone else knew there was something wrong with the grave bag when they saw it, but no one said a word. Only Deng Kai, who didn't understand anything, opened his mouth and said, "Don't say it, the descendants of this family are quite diligent...even the ones on the grave Not a hair of grass is left!”
