Chapter 616: Returning Home to Visit Graves
Not to mention Lu Qingye, even Meng Chuyuan himself felt that it was shabby. "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Before bringing you here, I should have found someone to repair their grave."
Because no one has taken care of this place for a long time, it looks like a wasteland. Meng Chuyuan's eyebrows revealed a mixed color, "I really have to build a better grave for them someday."
In fact, she had wanted to find time to come back and repair their graves, but she didn't expect that one day, she would bring Lu Qingye to them first.
Lu Qingye didn't care, and this also showed that Meng Chuyuan didn't treat him as an outsider.
When Lu Qingye heard Meng Chuyuan's proposal to repair the grave, he asked, "Do we need to move their graves?"
He felt that the area was too desolate, the location was remote, and the road was difficult to walk on. Because it had rained not long ago, their feet were covered with a thick layer of mud, and their trouser legs were wet with water from the weeds.
Meng Chuyuan shook his head. "As time goes by, let them stay here."
Hearing her say this, Lu Qingye followed her meaning and said, "Then if you miss them in the future, I will accompany you."
…
Meng Chuyuan quickly cleared the weeds around, then placed offerings and burned incense.
She said to Lu Qingye: "The one on the left is my dad, and the one on the right is my mom."
After she finished speaking, she held up the incense, knelt on the ground, and knelt three times without saying a word.
Meng Chuyuan raised his eyes and looked at his parents' graves. After a few seconds of silence, he spoke succinctly: "Dad, Mom, I'm married. The man who married me is Lu Qingye. I brought him back to see you today."
After the worship, Meng Chuyuan stuck the incense sticks into the mud.
Lu Qingye followed her through the formalities, "Dad, Mom, I'm your son-in-law, Lu Qingye. Don't worry, I'm here. I'll take good care of her for you and won't let her suffer any injustice."
Meng Chuyuan also brought a bunch of letters, which she wrote when she missed them over the years. She put them all in envelopes.
She also put the invalid marriage agreement in a document bag and threw it into the fire.
"I'll burn something for you." Meng Chuyuan's voice was flat: "Whether you think it's garbage or sincere, just treat it as fun."
These things are quite private, and she is willing to show them to them, because she actually wants to be completely open with them.
Meng Chuyuan wanted to use this way to tell her parents that even though they were no longer in this world, did not see her grow up with their own eyes, and did not give her a decent home... she did not blame them.
I believe they didn't want to be like this at the time.
…
Meng Chuyuan knelt for a long time.
She didn't get up until everything was burned out and the fire was out.
She didn't even feel her legs go numb from kneeling.
Lu Qingye asked her: "Is there anything else you want to say to your parents?"
Meng Chuyuan lowered his eyes and said calmly, "I don't know what to say."
She only said two sentences to her parents, and Lu Qingye knew it.
He stood up and reached out to help Meng Chuyuan, "Then get up first."
With Lu Qingye's support, Meng Chuyuan slowly stood up and stood for a long time before his legs relaxed.
Lu Qingye noticed that the sky was a little darker than before, and the dark clouds on the horizon were also lowering. "It looks like it's going to rain soon. Let's go back."
"I still want to go pay my respects to Grandma Tong." Meng Chuyuan glanced at Lu Qingye, "Why don't you go back to the car and wait for me."
When she came, she prepared two tributes, one of which was for Grandma Tong.
Lu Qingye picked up the things beside him and took her hand, "I'll go with you."
"Oh well."
Because the weather was really bad, it was cold and the roads were slippery, and they didn't bring an umbrella with them when they got off the car, so after burning incense for Grandma Tong, they stayed for ten minutes and then left.
