080 Worship
Li Baitian's family is in business, and businessmen are often a little more superstitious than us. Li Baitian always feels that today is very evil. Especially after we directed him to drive the car out, it was obviously a good way to go. He said that he had been wandering around for a long time but couldn't understand it, so he felt it was very strange.
I think he is blind?
Today is the Ghost Festival, especially this place is a public offering group. Li Baitian told me not to scare him. It is said that I will not do bad things in my life, and I will not be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door when I work night shifts, so I have no scruples about this. Li Baitian may have done too much in the past.
There is a dirt road on the mountain, which is very narrow, uphill and downhill. The car is not driving smoothly, and the width of the road is only for one car to travel with it. Li Baitian parked the car on a relatively wide open space. Above the open space were many rows of tombstones, buried by some deceased people without ancestral tombstones.
The land in Li Baitian’s family circle is not very far from here, but the car can’t drive it.
Take out the prepared grave offerings from the trunk. Yuan Ze and I said it was a bit exaggerated that the rich man is the rich man.
Just as I was about to walk to the ground where he was circled, I saw two figures walking down from afar, dressed in a gorgeous manner, and the woman. Yuan Ze also took a look and was stunned.
Li Baitian looked over and was stunned for a moment.
At the beginning, we would pay more attention because it was unsafe on the mountain. It was rare to say that women came to worship alone. It was still two young women. If we pay more attention, it was because these two girls looked familiar.
This is Liu Shuyu and one of her little sisters.
The two of us naturally also saw clearly whether Li Baitian was considering whether to say hello? What can be guaranteed is that at least after Liu Shuyu left Beijing, Li Baitian had never seen her again, except for dreaming that she had a bad life.
Liu Shuyu had approached and did not avoid us. The little sisters around her were troublesome and urged her to come and say hello.
We met head-on.
There is a public cemetery above. Liu Shuyu is obviously here to visit the grave. Her father is gone, so he should be here to worship her father.
"It's such a coincidence." Li Baitian said hello calmly. Since everyone has come, it doesn't seem appropriate to pretend not to know each other. That thing has passed a long time ago. It's actually impossible to say that Liu Shuyu is blamed. However, there was a relationship back then.
Yuan Ze and I thought we couldn't have a relationship with Liu Shuyu, and we almost had a fight last time, so we naturally didn't talk.
Liu Shuyu smiled coldly, "Isn't this July half past? Are you here to worship your grandpa?"
Li Baitian nodded and planned to leave, but Liu Shuyu was still lukewarm, "What a coincidence, I'll come to see my son."
Son... I almost forgot about this. The relatives who died in Liu Shuyu not only had a father, but also a son. After cremation last year, Liu Shuyu brought the ashes back. Of course, this is her turn to take charge of the matter.
This topic is a bit heavy, and Li Baitian didn't plan to talk to her. To be honest, we always feel that the misfortune of the child has something to do with us. If we were more determined at the time, it would not have led to such a tragedy. The child is always innocent.
Li Baitian smiled a little reluctantly, and had no malice towards Liu Shuyu. He glanced at the direction he was going to and said, "Then I'll go up first."
Liu Shuyu didn't say anything, and the little sister around her interrupted, "You don't go and see it. If it weren't for you, the children would be one year old."
As he said that, he gave Li Baitian and I a blank look one by one.
Yes, we admit that we were not determined at the time and we were wrong. But it was not appropriate to rely on whom. After all, it was Liu Shuyu who was pregnant with someone else's child and was born before Li Baitian. We didn't mean it, but Liu Shuyu did it on purpose.
It has been this time, is it meaningful to argue about whose fault?
We didn't want to argue with them, so I pulled Li Baitian's arm and looked at the direction I should go. Li Baitian didn't say anything, so the three of us left first.
When I left, I heard a disdainful sound of "其" and I don't know who sent it.
To walk to Li Baitian’s land, you need to climb some mountain roads. This tomb group is still immature, and many roads have not been spread out, so you can only walk around.
I looked back at Liu Shuyu and her sisters, and the two left hand in hand, one of them seemed to be on the phone.
Li Baitian said: "I really didn't expect to meet her."
I said, "You didn't expect too many things, you're going to do evil."
Yuan Ze pulled me and made it easier for me to climb through the road ahead. Li Baitian stopped and sighed, saying, "Did I give her a little less money?"
Li Baitian only gave Liu Shuyu 20,000 yuan at that time. The Li family would certainly not care about other hospitals. How much did Liu Shuyu leave in the end? I don’t know.
But out of his thoughts at that time, Li Baitian didn't want to give too much. Why did Liu Shuyu give it? He felt a little sad.
I said, "If you can, don't think about it. Let's live your own things now and don't get involved."
People like Liu Shuyu can only hide. If you get involved, you have to have trouble with her. She just relies on provocation and lives a life and is too peaceful, and she probably can't stand it.
We finally arrived at our destination. I don’t know what Yuan Ze thought, but standing in front of Grandpa Li Baitian’s tombstone, I was very pious inside, although I had never seen this old man before.
Three people squatted down to burn paper money. I remember that every time my mother took me to the intersection to worship, she would say a few words to her ancestors, and Li Baitian was very silent.
I said, "Don't you tell your grandpa something?"
Li Baitian glanced at me, "I don't know what to say."
OK, he didn't say anything. While handing the fire paper into the fire, I was like my mother saying, "Grandpa, we are Li Baitian's friends, accompany him to see you. It's the holiday, you can eat and drink there, bless Li Baitian and his family, grandma is in good health now, uncles, aunts and sisters are living well, Li Baitian is now sensible, and he has also won awards at the film festival. Don't worry."
Li Baitian looked at me and smiled.
He bought too many things. We cooked them for half an hour and let the fire be roasted. After the fire was finished, Li Baitian wanted to kowtow to his grandfather. I looked at Yuan Ze and said that I didn't know if I should say something.
According to the local customs of our side, Yuan Ze is Li Baitian's brother, and Grandpa Li Baitian is his grandfather. He has to knock, so Yuan Ze knocks.
What about me...
Emma didn't care, so I kowtowed. In front of the deceased and the elders, we were serious and didn't make any jokes. When I kowtowed, I walked down from the gods and thought that I would pay my respects to Li Baitian to worship my grandfather once. This friend did a lot of deeper work.
In order to prevent wildfires, we still did not rush to leave. We had to wait until the fire burned out before we could rest assured.
"Hey Yuan Ze, are you two finished getting engaged?" Li Baitian asked in a chatty tone.
Yuan Ze replied, "The hotel has not been booked yet, wait a few days."
Li Baitian smiled a little strangely, as if he was running out, and said, "It's enough, why don't you just come to the door to propose marriage?"
Yuan Ze looked at me with a gentle smile and said, "It's enough to do it before she goes abroad, there's not that much attention."
Li Baitian smiled again, and saw that the fire was almost burning out. He picked up the plastic products on the ground and planned to go down the mountain and threw them away. He said nothing and turned around and walked down the mountain.
Yuan Ze and I followed behind. Yuan Ze was afraid that I would fall, but in fact, I wouldn't be that so cute.
Just after walking a few steps, a crowd of people appeared in front of me. There were seven or eight, either wearing vests or shirtless. At that time, we were still a little far away, and what I saw was those people holding things, iron sticks, etc.
We didn't think about anything else. Who knew what these people were doing, and just wanted to not provoke them, so we found a place to move aside and gave them the way.
But the few people got closer and closer, and their eyes were on us.
Li Baitian reacted the fastest and whispered, "Run!"
Yuan Ze probably realized that he pulled me and ran in a certain direction. Li Baitian also ran, and then those who carried steel sticks suddenly caught up quickly.
Is this going to rob or kill someone? I really can’t react at this time and I know how to run away.
There is really no road on the mountain, just a piece of grave. When we come up, we pay attention to it. Don’t pass by someone’s tombstone. Now we don’t care about anything. As long as the road is smooth, we can run as fast as we can.
The purpose of Li Baitian and Yuan Ze is to protect me, so Yuan Ze pulled me to run hard, while Li Baitian deliberately slowed down a little and followed us.
These two were 400-meter sprinters back then.
I don’t care about anything, just running, and of course there is no such thing as tripping over a tree branch. It’s just that the road on the mountain is difficult to walk, and it’s really hard to run fast. There are many people there, so if we go to chase us in a few directions, it’s easy to block us.
The fastest person there was already catching up with a stick. I felt like I was finished. Today, the iron sticks that were scattered were determined, and I felt like the sky was dark.
At this time, I don't care about being afraid.
The fastest man there caught up with Li Baitian and waved at Li Baitian with a stick. Li Baitian was quite flexible and avoided it, but the entire itinerary was delayed.
He had a large plastic bag in his hand, which was the one who just loaded the paper money. Li Baitian picked up the plastic bag into a long rope, put it on the other person's neck, tied his neck tightly with the bag, and kicked the man's butt, and the bag tightened even tighter.
I turned around and was considering whether to help Li Baitian, but the iron bar gang had all caught up and stopped in front of Li Baitian.
Li Baitian held this person and looked at the group of people hesitating whether to take action. They were very fierce, "I'm Li Baitian, aren't you looking for me?"
Yuan Ze and I also stopped. Looking at the scene, the people seemed to be urging Li Baitian, but they might not let us go.
Yuan Ze wanted to walk up and help Li Baitian, but he had to protect me. He looked around and probably was looking for weapons such as big wooden sticks.
Li Baitian didn't look back, but said, "Yuan Ze, take Zhou Wenxue away, hurry up!"
Chapter completed!
