It was the Lesser Heat, and it rained at night, making the weather surprisingly cool.
The Wenxi family got up early, took the things they had prepared and went to Mopan Mountain.
This day is the anniversary of my uncle's family's death, and they would go there to pay their respects every year at this time.
Mopan Mountain is planted with pine and cypress trees, which are evergreen all year round. Everywhere you look, you can see lush greenery. The environment is extremely quiet and peaceful, giving people a sense of solemnity.
There was no traffic jam on the road, so the family of three arrived earlier than usual. There were very few people entering the mountains, and the occasional bird calls and cicada chirps made the mountains even more quiet.
Most people are afraid of such places, but Wenxi is not averse to them. Every time he comes here, he has a very special feeling. His heart is surprisingly at peace, as if he has escaped from the hustle and bustle of the world for a short time and gained a moment of tranquility.
My uncle and aunt were very loving when they were alive, and they were buried together after they passed away, along with their unborn child.
This is an upscale area, and it is kept very clean by a dedicated staff. There is not even a weed, but Wen Xi still has the habit of wiping the photos on the monument with his own hands.
The photo has faded a bit, but the couple's appearance is still clearly visible.
My uncle has gentle eyes and a modest demeanor, while my aunt has soft, dignified features. They are a perfect match, both of them have the softest temperaments and are especially fond of the children in their family.
Wen Xi wiped the photo with a handkerchief and quietly stepped aside.
"Brother and sister-in-law, we are here to see you." Wen Chengyi said softly.
He lost his usual harsh voice and spoke softly and slowly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the peace of the people below.
"Everything is fine at home, don't worry." Wen Chengyi muttered as he poured two glasses of plum wine, one for his brother and one for himself.
Tianxiang brand plum wine is Wen Chengli's favorite. Every year, Wen Chengyi comes to have a few drinks with his dearest brother.
After Mu Fu put down her sister-in-law's favorite flowers, she took out the things she had brought and arranged them in an orderly manner. Wen Xi also helped.
These are all my great uncle and aunt’s favorite foods when they were alive, as well as chocolates and candies that children like to eat. If my little nephew could survive, he would be in elementary school by now, and this would be the time when he is most greedy.
Civilized sacrifices are advocated now, but Wen Xi still brought a small brazier and prepared to burn a copy of the university admission notice for his uncle and others to see.
She was admitted to an art school in advance and received the notification letter from Y University a few days ago.
After lighting the copy and putting it into the brazier, the flame grew from small to large and began to burn fiercely.
In the flickering flames, Wen Xi vaguely returned to the past.
Her uncle and his wife's first child died before the age of one month. Heartbroken, they loved these younger generations even more. When she was very young, she drew a portrait of her uncle and his wife. She didn't know what to do at that time, so she just drew it randomly. Her painting skills were comparable to disfigurement. But her uncle treasured it and kept it, jokingly saying that the painting would appreciate in value when she became famous.
It seemed as if he was very sure that she could become a painter.
At that time, she painted the walls of our house in a terrible way. Even her parents couldn't stand it and wanted to beat her. But her uncle protected her and helped to clean up the mess. He cleaned the walls and let her continue painting...
My great aunt studied fashion design and always made many beautiful clothes for her. At that time, shiny princess dresses were popular, and the dresses made by my great aunt were both beautiful and stylish. None of her friends who wore skirts could compare with her.
Talking about the love the two of them showed her, it would take three days and three nights to finish.
