"Qing'er, if you open the small vine box, you might be able to solve the mystery of why your grandfather set up red and black tombstones."
"Dad, if it was really Master Li and Aunt Li who meant it, grandpa shouldn't do this either!"
"Li Li, does Li Ya's father mean the same thing?"
"That's what he meant and he couldn't do it. After all, he was still alive at the time. If Li Li, Li Ya and people in society said that their father could have lived to ninety-nine, wouldn't grandpa become a sinner?"
"Don't you still know your grandfather's principles of conduct?"
"But this matter is different. You can't ignore the righteousness over there and lose the justice here. The dead are always important, the living are always important, the past is always important, the present and the future are important."
"Qing'er, it's important to continue with the funeral arrangements right now. We can't let sisters Li Li and Li Ya stand in front of the tomb holding the relics, right?"
"Don't worry, I will arrange it naturally."
Tang Qing and his father had a brief conversation in front of Aunt Li's grave, then turned back and put the bricks in their hands back to their original place.
Squeak, squeak, squeak...
The two tombstones, red and black, were closed again.
Then there was a crisp sound of "crack!" and the green brick cracked into pieces.
Tang Qing hurriedly leaned over to pick it up. The fragments turned into pieces, and the words on them disappeared without a trace.
"Grandpa, you are so smart!"
Tang Qing was filled with emotion. She turned around and called to the contractor:
"Assign people to take care of the tomb. Reinforce the parts that need to be reinforced first. Contact the builders for details."
"Master Jiujin, don't worry, I promise not to let anyone get close to the grave."
The contractor immediately went to arrange the work.
Tang Qing walked to Li Li and Li Ya and said softly:
"Why don't you cry anymore? You should cry at this time, cry loudly."
"Why are you crying so loudly?"
"I cried all my tears just now and I can't cry anymore."
Li Li was puzzled, and Li Ya told the truth.
"Everyone is looking at you, thinking that after you two get the baby, they won't miss your mother."
Tang Qing explained.
"That way I won't cry. Do I need to cry in front of them?"
Li Li's "miscellaneous" energy came up.
"Master Jiujin, we are sad because we are sad. There is no need for us to act for others, right?"
Li Ya still wanted to say this in her heart.
"Oh, it's up to you, but Aunt Li must be very disappointed in the tomb passage. I didn't expect that after waiting for more than thirty years, I would still be lonely."
Tang Qing shook his head and sighed.
"Qingtuan, please explain clearly, why did my mother only find loneliness?"
Li Li handed the small rattan box to Li Ya and stepped forward to question Tang Qing.
"It seems that my grandfather was not wrong in sealing the tomb with soil. If it was wrong, I will help you two sisters open the tomb!"
"What do you mean? What's wrong with you? You don't answer the question!"
"I knew you two sisters couldn't hold it in any longer. You wanted to ask my grandfather why he set up two tombstones, red and black? Why did you engraved your father's name on them so well? Isn't that right? Come at me if you want.
! Everyone is watching. It’s time for everyone to comment and give justice to your Li family and punish our Tang family."
"Tang Qing, don't think that I don't dare, I'm trying to save face for your Tang family!"
"Haha, have you finally spoken out what's on your mind? I had already anticipated this when I was talking to my dad just now, and my grandfather had also anticipated this, so he said that if there is any offense or anything wrong, please forgive me.
Bear with me. I think you don’t want to bear with me at all, so there’s no need to bear with me. Come on, scold my grandfather in front of everyone and scold our Tang family!”
"Since you said that, I won't be polite."
Li Li turned to face the grove and said loudly:
"Dear fellow villagers, thank you for coming to attend the memorial ceremony of my father and mother, and also thank the Tang family for their help to our Li family in the past. But I have to announce that from now on, our Li family will cut off all contact with the Tang family.
From now on, the water in the well will not interfere with the water in the river!"
"sister!"
Li Ya came over and pulled Li Li's clothes.
"Just go aside and hold the small box."
Li Li pushed Li Ya away.
All the people watching the excitement in the grove didn't dare to make a sound, but when they heard Li Li announced that they were cutting off all contact with the Tang family, they suddenly went crazy.
"What? This Li Zapo wants to sever ties with the Tang family?"
"Isn't Master Jiujin's work in vain?"
"Isn't this just repaying kindness with hatred?"
"How about repaying kindness with hatred? Keep watching the fun."
"Yes, the show has just begun."
…
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet!"
Li Li waved desperately in the direction of the grove, but there was still a lot of noise in the grove.
"Just be quiet, be quiet, I have something important to announce!"
The grove slowly became quiet.
"Everyone, I know some of you will say that I repay kindness with enmity, but I want to ask you, is it our Li family's enmity or their Tang family's enmity? Thirty years ago, my father, a living person, had a tombstone erected.
Do you think that a human being can do such a sinful thing?"
Li Li was filled with anger and gritted her teeth.
"That's true."
"This Tang Shatou is a man with clear grudges. How could he do such a thing?"
"Could someone be framing the Tang family?"
…
The discussion started again.
"Everyone, I have decided to choose another place to bury my parents. My mother died unjustly, and she can't see the light of day even after she dies. The good grave will be covered with soil. My heart is bleeding! My father was buried in Tang Dynasty.
The family cursed him to death through evil means, and he could have lived for decades more. But we just knew each other as father and daughter, and he left us sisters. My heart is bleeding!"
Li Li burst into tears.
There was silence in the grove.
"Everyone, I want to hold a grand funeral for my parents to pay homage and comfort their souls. Starting from noon today, I will book all the hotels in Shancheng, and everyone can go to the funeral of my parents.
feast."
Li Li's decision overturned the grove.
"Is it possible? Book all the hotels in Shancheng?"
"Everyone can eat there? How much does it cost?"
"Is she Li Zapo from Yancheng? You can tell or do it!"
"There won't be any other requirements, right? Otherwise, what's the point of such a good thing?"
…
"Everyone, I have only one request. Everyone come to my old home on Lushan Road to offer three sticks of incense to my parents. On the day my parents are buried, everyone comes to see them off, and everyone gets a return gift at the funeral meal!
"
After Li Li finished speaking, she turned around and called to the contractor:
"You immediately lead your engineering team to smash my parents' tombstones!"
"Auntie, isn't this, this, this bad?"
The contractor stepped back as he spoke.
"Don't call me aunt in the future. Will you smash me?"
Li Li glared at the contractor.
The contractor trembled and sat down in front of the grave. His mouth was wide open, but he couldn't speak.
"Coward!"
Li Li went over and kicked the contractor, then pointed at the engineering team members standing beside the grave and said sternly:
"You guys! Come here!"
The engineering team members looked at the contractor and Li Li. Most of them stood still. Two or three of the more courageous engineering team members walked up to Li Li and asked timidly:
"Boss Li, what are your orders?"
"Smash them right away, the sooner the better!"
Li Li hated the red and black tombstones in front of her.
"Boss Li, your parents' names are already engraved on this tombstone. If it is smashed, it will be bad for the two old people and you two sisters."
He stepped forward to dissuade him with his feet and head.
"This is none of your business. You guys should smash it to me immediately. Whoever smashes it will get 500 yuan in wages!"
"Okay!"
Man dies for money and bird dies for food. As soon as Li Li said that she would give five hundred yuan to whom, more than a dozen engineering team members swarmed up and quickly smashed the two tombstones into pieces with hammers.
"Liya, put the small box aside first, and you and I can pull out mother's coffin together."
"Sister, Grandpa Tang once said that mother's coffin must not be touched."
"It's all a trap set by that ugly old man. He's harmed our family. Do you still listen to him? Come here!"
Li Li didn't wait for Li Ya to approach, and took the lead to get into the tomb passage.
