Chapter 316, Returning Home in Glory (please subscribe!)(2/3)
There was a new grave on the side of the road. It had not yet covered the soil, and it was covered with a bamboo blanket drying with rice. The coffin could be vaguely seen.
A sesame oil lamp was lit in front of the coffin. This is the customary lantern of the Xiao family who shines on the underworld for the deceased to shine on the road. It should be lit as soon as it dark, and it will be lit for 7 nights in a row. That is, the first seven.
With just one glance, he realized that the time of the deceased was wrong, and now he was a burial. He had to wait for a good time to move again to cover the soil. Although this scene is rare in their rural areas, there are still one or two of them every now and then.
Run! If you don’t run, your mother’s spirit will be vented! Li Heng thought this way, and with one step forward, he rushed out and sang loudly while rushing.
"Yeah, Li Heng? Li Heng! Are you Li Heng?"
Just as he ran a hundred meters, a female voice came from under the road, anxious and excited, which scared him.
Li Heng shone the flashlight and was a little dumbfounded.
Isn’t this Zou Jiao, an old classmate in elementary school, after graduating from junior high school, he went to Zhuzhou next door to work in Zhuzhou. I haven’t seen him for many years. Why are you here at night?
He rubbed his eyes: "Lao Jiao?"
"Ah, you still recognize me." Zou Jiao seemed very happy and tried hard to climb up.
Li Heng instinctively took a step back, and took another step back without insurance: "Why are you here alone?"
Zou Jiao Xiemei was almost crying: "Don't you think I'm a ghost, do you?"
Li Heng smacked his lips and reached out to pinch her face. He felt warm and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Lao Jiao, are you afraid of staying here alone?"
Upon hearing this, Zou Jiao said depressedly, "Do you think I want it, my shoes are slipping, and I have gone down the mountain."
After chatting, I found out that she was back from outside today, and was almost the same as herself. She was frightened by the new grave in front of her and kept running forward. As a result, she fell on this uphill section and then slid down the icy road to the bottom of the mountain. It took a lot of effort to climb up.
She asked, "Did you come back from the capital?"
"Yes, you saw me on TV?"
"I saw it. The New Year I spent outside, there is TV. Your Spring Festival Gala is the 6th program, which is so amazing."
"How did you choose to come back today?"
"I ran back. The boss asked me to be his wife. I didn't want to, so I ran away overnight."
Li Heng was speechless and slowly remembered it. It seemed that her boss had fallen in love with her and was always good to her, but she was about 10 years older than her and she couldn't accept it, so she ran away.
Li Heng asked: "Didn't you go with your relatives? Where are your relatives?"
"She's married there, and there are two children," Zou Jiao said.
There were companions on the road, and neither of them was so scared. As they talked, they entered the entrance of the village.
There is a production team living at the entrance of Shangwan Village, with five ponds facing each other. Even if it gets dark, there are still many children playing with firecrackers outside. Hehe, it’s so fun.
"By the way, Li Heng, is your second sister married?"
Zou Jiao has been a follower of her second sister Li Lan since she was a child. She is still a follower of her later generations, and she has a very good relationship until she is old.
Li Heng said: "Not yet, you will see her later."
The two of them are in the same production team, and their homes are in Group 3 of Shangwan Village. After Group 1 and Group 2, they finally arrived at the intersection.
The intersection was quite lively at this time. Many people stood under the eaves of the Chen family and chatted. After a rough sweep, they heard it again. Everyone gathered together and it turned out that they were discussing the rebuilding of the bridge.
"The great writer is back! The great writer is back!"
"Tian Rune, come out and pick you up a baby!"
"Chen Zi, your man is back!
Suddenly, someone saw Li Heng with sharp eyes and immediately shouted loudly. Many people were picking up the same thing and followed them to join in the fun and howled.
The mixed shouts were like a nuclear bomb thrown on the calm lake, and it suddenly resounded through the gourd mouth of Shangwan Village in less than three breaths. Dozens of families in front, back, left and right stretched out their heads and then walked out.
Although Shangwan Village has no TV and no signal, and it is impossible to watch the Spring Festival Gala, Li Heng’s Spring Festival Gala is a big event!
The town is full of news. Many new wives from other villages went back to their parents' homes to pay New Year's greetings, and even talked nonsense, directly praising Li Heng as three heads and six arms, and praised him as a god in the sky.
It was a thrill, and in an instant, men, women, young and old squeezed over, and Wuyang had no less than 120 people.
The man named Liang was also there, and his wife, Fat Aunt, was there, but the couple hid behind the crowd and watched secretly. After all, they had a grudge against the old Li family, so how could they dare to blatantly? But they were also curious. Everyone in and outside the village spread Li Heng so magically that they could hear the legend wherever they went, and they felt itchy.
There was no trouble with the fun and shouted, "Oh! Aunt Fat, you are here too. Go ahead and click ahead,
The old Li family is now very developed!”
When he heard this, Fat Aunt snatched her feet awkwardly, turned around and ran back to her home, then slammed the door and closed.
"Hahaha..."
The people nearby were amused and laughed.
However, the gray man named Liang was very thick-skinned and watched the fun in the crowd like a ok-all.
There was too much noise outside, and the people from the old Li family came out. Li Jianguo, Tian Rune, grandma and Li Lan, and his second aunt and second uncle, as well as a cousin.
At the same time, the Chen family on this side of the road also came out. Chen Gaoyuan, Chen Xiaomi, Chen Xiaohong, Chen Zijin and Chen Zitong and others, and there were Mr. Chen slowly hanging behind him, as well as several old friends from the village.
Although, at this moment, hundreds of people gathered at the intersection, including men, women, and young and old, Li Heng only had his own eyes.
The same goes for Zi, following the crowd and looking at him happily.
Looking at each other, two seconds later, Chen Zijin happily crossed the crowd to pick him up, wanting to help him carry something.

Li Heng didn't care about this and hugged Zi in front of the old and young men in the village and hugged him excitedly.
I was embarrassed during the summer vacation of the previous year. I will help my wife get back during the Chinese New Year this year!
"Wife, I'm back."
"Uh-huh.."
There are too many people, and Chen Zijin is very shy, but being held like this by her man, she feels very sweet inside. When she stares at the face in front of her, tears can't help but burst into tears in her eyes.
At this moment, she has no regrets in this life and death.
After hugging for about ten seconds, Li Heng let her go and was about to call someone and elders, he never wanted to make a shout in front of him.
"Brother-in-law!"
This brother-in-law was shouted by Chen Zitong on the back, her eyes were bulging.
Zhong Lan, hiding in the corner of the second floor, watched the scene of her eldest daughter hugging the kid through the gap in the curtains, and listened to her younger daughter's "brother-in-law". She was immediately angry and called out, but she was helpless.
Now it is no better than the past. That boy soars into the sky and she has no choice but to do anything to him.
Zhong Lan was not upset and left the window, but stopped in place before walking far. After a while, he quietly touched the window, pulled open the curtain with his fingers, pulled out a gap, and continued to observe the situation outside.
Li Heng held his eldest daughter's hand and greeted Chen and Li's family all the way, and took out a scattered bun from his backpack for the young and old men watching.
Not only that, in addition to cigarettes, there is also candy, a large bag of candy, which is said to be his and Zijin's wedding candy.
This kid is good at being a human being, and he has a lot of face.
Zhong Lan's eyes were on her eldest daughter's face that was overjoyed. Later, she looked at her younger daughter who was grabbing candy.
I couldn't help but curse: You damn girl, you usually have to be like a monkey, and you look down on me three, five, and ten,
Today, Li Heng laughed so hard that he couldn't stop giving him a candy. I was so angry that I was so angry. You ungrateful wolf.
"Sister-in-law, who are you calling me?" My sister-in-law Chen Xiaoyun didn't go outside. She just woke up and was holding a cup of tea in her hand.
Zhong Lan turned around and said unnaturally: "Xiaoyun, you are awake."
"Well, Li Heng is back? Let me see." As he said that, Chen Xiaoyun walked over her sister-in-law, bent down and opened the curtains wide by her palm, and happened to see Li Heng taking her eldest niece back to the Li family.
After a while, Chen Xiaoyun stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, if Zi Jin doesn't come back tonight, don't go over and make trouble."
In fact, she believed that her sister-in-law would not make trouble. After all, her niece stayed opposite her door for several nights before the New Year. Although her sister-in-law was sulking, she did not stop her.
But now that Li Heng is back, his sister-in-law, who is afraid that she will lose her mind, has a mouthful of her.
Zhong Lan said unhappily: "Now that their wings are hard, you all put down your face and stood up."
Chen Xiaoyun laughed and comforted her: "Those who know the times are heroes. In a family like ours, their face is sometimes valuable, and sometimes they are not valuable.
I like Li Heng so much, even if I want to stop him, I can't stop him. I won't help them."
Zhong Lan whispered, "Did you ask you to be a lobbyist?"
Chen Xiaoyun did not hide it: "My sister-in-law is smart, she can see through it at a glance."
Zhong Lan paused, his hands were tangled together, and said lonely for a long time: "That boy is very popular. Even the old man finally tangled and intervened clearly. Please don't worry, I won't make trouble."
Chen Xiaoyun opened her mouth, but she wanted to speak but stopped.
Fortunately, Chen Gaoyuan came in at this time, "Xiaoyun, Xiaomi has something to do with you."
Chen Xiaoyun knew it was an excuse for the elder brother to send him away, so she responded immediately, walked out, and closed the door.
Chen Gaoyuan walked over and took his wife's hand to the chair and sat down: "I'm sulking again."
Zhong Lan said, "I dare not."
Chen Gaoyuan knew his wife's temper and poured her a cup of hot water.
Zhong Lan asked coldly, "Why didn't you go to the Li family? Your two daughters have both gone."
