Chapter 154: CH 87.3

For the convenience of walking on the mountain road, Qin Lu also changed the suit he wore yesterday with a pair of trousers and a sweater inside his jacket, looking more refreshed like a young man full of energy.

Then the two went up the mountain.

The mountain roads are really not easy to walk on. Qin Lu had been to some places with rough terrain when filming before, but the crew considered safety issues and did not choose particularly difficult road sections.

Not to mention the fact that this uphill road leading to the destination is not crowded with many people every year. People only go there when they visit graves, so the road is overgrown with weeds.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Qin Lu found that his clothes were stained.

If Jiang Liucheng hadn’t bought him a pair of boots to wear, his shoes under his feet might not be able to walk because of the thick layer of mud.

On the mountain road, after the rain, you can see a small pond piled up in some potholes everywhere, and you may step on it if you are not careful.

Jiang Liucheng looked back and saw that Qin Lu had stepped on it a few times. Thus, he decided to intervene and say, “Follow the route I took. Some small puddles are covered with grass, so it’s hard to see with the naked eye.”

Qin Lu also saw that, so he didn’t try to be brave. He simply followed the path Jiang Liucheng took and sure enough, he didn’t step on the puddle again.

The distance to the tomb is not particularly far, but because it is on the mountain, and the recent mountain roads are not easy to walk, it is only supposed to be half an hour to walk, but it took them more than that.

“This is still relatively fast.” Jiang Liucheng deliberately picked a section that is a little easier to walk unto. If it is going in another and usual direction, it will take longer.

When they arrived at their destination, Qin Lu saw a tombstone. The weeds around it had been cleared away, and there were traces of scythes on it. It seemed that someone had come to cut the grass on the grave not long ago.

“When I have money, I’ll hire someone to come here regularly to remove the weeds.” Jiang Liucheng explained, putting down the basket in his hand.

Qin Lu put the basket in front of the tombstone. There were some yellow paper and candles in it, which Aunt Guo helped prepare in advance. The basket in Jiang Liucheng’s hand contained some food. He took them out and put them in front of the tombstone to set it up.

“Is this a custom in your village?” Qin Lu has never seen such worship for the dead. In big cities, relatives would bring a bouquet of flowers to worship them, let alone burn paper money.

“The more remote the place, the more particular it is. We have already counted it here, and there are not many customs left.”

Jiang Liucheng said while lighting candles and a few sticks of incense. He then distributed three sticks to Qin Lu. After they made their worship, the incense were inserted on the small mound in front of the tombstone.

It was Qin Lu’s first time doing this kind of thing, and he was a little unfamiliar, so he imitated Jiang Liucheng’s movements to offer incense.

After doing all this, Jiang Liucheng introduced Qin Lu to his grandfather. “Grandpa, I found another partner who I want to live with. His name is Qin Lu. I don’t know if you will be angry. Although he is a man,  I really want to marry him. Even if there would be an accident ought to happen, I will not have a second one who’d I’d rather spend my entire life with..”

Qin Lu raised his brows. “There will never be accidents. I will be bound to you in this life. Now, don’t scare grandpa. Since I have inherited his mantle, I have an obligation to take care of you and love you forever.”

Jiang Liucheng smiled and said, “What did you inherit from grandpa?”

Qin Lu stretched out a leg, enough to make Jiang Liucheng smile. Liucheng followed his gaze to Qin Lu’s legs and saw the boots on his feet. He said, “I am the most suitable person for these boots, and they have been passed down to me.”

Jiang Liucheng couldn’t help laughing, “It is just a pair of boots. Why are you calling it a family heirloom?”

Qin Lu thought for a while and thought it was okay, “These heirlooms are not bad, and when our descendants have someone they like, they will pass these boots on to him.”

Jiang Liucheng: “Our offspring?”

Qin Lu: “Although we won’t have one, we can adopt one. There are many children in the offshoots of the Long family, and not every offspring can get the attention of the main family. When the time comes, you can pick one at will, if you like children.”

Jiang Liucheng: “You should better pick good.”

Qin Lu: “That’s what you said.” 

The two chatted casually. Upon seeing that the candle was almost burned out, Jiang Liucheng burned the paper money next.After burning it, he pour water on it and then pack up their things with Qin Lu before they go down the mountain.

Back in the village, Jiang Liucheng returned the basket to Aunt Guo. Seeing that it was still early, he then decided to take Qin Lu around.

Xinghua Village is the place where he has lived for more than ten years, and his and Guo Qifan’s footprints have been left in many places.

Jiang Liucheng led him to an apricot tree. “This apricot tree is the oldest one in our village, and it still bears fruit when I was young. At that time, Guo Qifan and I often climbed up to pick apricots, and we are still on it later. It has been carved.”

He turned around and found the words carved by two people in a corner.

“The goal is Q big?” Qin Lu read out the above words.

“Guo Qifan didn’t study well at the time, and then he set a goal to take the Q University exam with me. I would give him extra lessons every night. Although he was born deficient, fortunately he made up for it the day after tomorrow. In the end, Guo Qifan passed the exam by one point. At that time, the two of us were the only two students in Xinghua Village who was able to go to Q University. The village committee was very happy, and they even pulled up a banner at the entrance and exit of the village to celebrate. He also gave Guo Qifan and I a bonus as a reward. Guo Qifan was also proud of this achievement of ours. It’s been a long time, huh.”

“What about you?”

“Me?” Jiang Liucheng thought for a while, “I’ve been studying since I was a child, and everyone in the village thought that I would definitely be able to pass. I was recommended and didn’t take the exam, though. When I was helping Guo Qifan with tutoring, I also gave tutoring to a few students in the village who did not do very well in their studies. Although they did not do well in the exams like Guo Qifan, they all went to a good school, and everyone is very grateful to me.” Because he has the experience of helping others make up with their lessons, after he went to college, he often found time to be a tutor.
