MTL - The Age of Rebirth: Lazy Man’s Hot Daughter-in-law Has Space-Chapter 431 Reluctant to be buried with Guo Acai
Chapter 431 Unwilling to be buried with Guo Acai
Needless to say anything else, Zhou Yan, the eldest grandson of the house, is clearly recorded in the genealogy.
This place is far away from the city, and people have all moved out, so there are few disputes.
The ancestral hall has basically been preserved as it was, because Zhou Hanqing moved out the entire village of the Zhou family with great fanfare, so many spiritual seats have also been moved away, and the spiritual seats of Grandpa Zhou Hanqing's generation have not been displayed outside.
Two grandfathers surnamed Gu brought Zhou Yan and Liang Xiaonan to the ancestral hall. In the small room, only the spirit tablets of Zhou Hanqing and Yu Fanghua were placed on the incense table. The two grandfathers said that no one had been there.
If someone asks, they will say that they are too old and unwilling to move away, so they set up a spiritual seat for the master and wife to guard.
Will not tell anyone that the real tombs of Zhou Hanqing and Yu Fanghua are actually here.
Grandpa Gu took Zhou Yan and Liang Xiaonan out of the ancestral hall and went halfway up the mountain. Finally, I saw the legendary Zhou family's ancestral grave.
A green hill with several chair-like tombs. The top of the hill behind the cemetery is raised and raised on both sides, while the middle part is sunken inward, shaped like an incense burner.
This is the legendary pattern of the incense burner. The burial of the ancestors here is bound to make the fortunes of the younger generations smooth and prosperous.
According to what Zhou Hai said, they were looking for the neem tree, and the grave under the neem tree belonged to Zhou Hanqing and Yu Fanghua.
Yet they found the neem tree, the ground was clean, no tombstones, no tombs, nothing.
At a distance of 50 meters from that location. There is a stone tablet less than three feet standing, and the words on it are extremely simple: quiet.
Liang Xiaonan and Zhou Yan probed down at the same time, and sure enough, there was nothing under the tombstone.
At the neem tree, the two went down spiritually, and immediately at a depth of more than three meters underground, they saw a masonry tomb with a roof, two black-painted coffins, and two stone tablets standing on the top of the coffins.
A tombstone is embedded with a black and white photo of Zhou Hanqing, in a suit, with a slicked back hair, not like a businessman, but like a scholar.
Another stone tablet, written "Tomb of My Wife Yushi Fanghua", was erected by Zhou Hanqing.
The photo on the tombstone is a photo of Yu Fanghua when she was young, with deep eye sockets, delicate nose tip, almost perfect face shape, and a strong bookish look. In the eyes of Liang Xiaonan, a native of the earth, this appearance "debuted directly" in minutes .
This place is indeed inaccessible, and now there is no development of real estate and tourist attractions everywhere like in her previous life. This small declining fishing village is not much different from the wilderness.
It is estimated that this is also the main reason why Guo Acai and some interested people did not pay attention to this place.
The two kowtowed on the ground in front of the tombs of Zhou Hanqing and Yu Fanghua.
Zhou Yan held Liang Xiaonan's hand and said solemnly: "Grandpa, grandma, this is my partner, named Liang Xiaonan. I will show you old people today. Please accept her, like her, bless her, and bless her."
He said again: "Grandma, we plan to take away your dowry first, because Aunt Guo Acai is here, and they will find it here sooner or later. We have a secret space that the world cannot find, so we take it away first.
We won’t waste it, and we won’t waste it. When the time is right, I will even share it with my cousin Chang’an, or I will give him the same amount of money. "
As for Zhou Weiyu, forget it, find your own grandma to divide the property!
The dowry is in the basement of their ancestral hall.
"Back then, it was popular to marry a daughter from a rich family in Yuedi. It was a real red makeup for a grandma to marry a grandfather. The marriage of a grandma became a miracle that people in Yuedi and Modu talked about."
Zhou Yan said to Liang Xiaonan very seriously, "It is said that grandma has a lot of dowry, so Guo Acai always wanted to find it before us."
Precise sacrifices were made in the cemetery. The two old men surnamed Gu took them to the cemetery and stopped talking. They stood watching from a distance.
In fact, they were also observing Zhou Yan.
There are many unworthy descendants, and they don't know what Zhou Yan is.
Seeing how accurately they found the address of Zhou Hanqing and Yu Fanghua's coffin, they were very surprised.
This shows that Zhou Yan is indeed Zhou Hanqing's grandson, and his wife's own grandson, not Guo Acai's grandson.
After the sacrifice, the two went back.
"Grandpa Gu, this is my partner, Liang Xiaonan." Zhou Yan first introduced Liang Xiaonan to prevent the two old men from distrusting Liang Xiaonan and daring to say something.
But Liang Xiaonan found an excuse and walked away. She and Zhou Yan were not married. These old men have been able to guard the Zhou family's ancestral hall for decades. In addition to being extremely respectful and grateful, they must also take their thoughts into consideration.
Women should seldom come to inquire about men's affairs, she understands!
To put it bluntly, she didn't want Zhou Yan to be embarrassed.
"Young master, the tombs of the master and wife are here. Except for the two of us, Zhou Hai knows, and no one else knows." The old man said, "Before the master went, he told us that he didn't want to be buried with Guo Acai, so Leave the empty tomb on Zhouqian Island to Guo Acai!"
Zhou Yan didn’t say anything. It was normal for rich people in the old days to have several wives and concubines, but Guo Acai had great ambitions, and he was focused on replacing Yu Fanghua, and even wanted to move Yu Fanghua’s coffin so that she was next to Zhou Hanqing.
Everyone in the clan disagreed. In the end, she took a lot of money and demanded that she be treated the same as Yu Fanghua.
The clan reluctantly agreed, and two identical coffins were placed on both sides of Zhou Hanqing's coffin, one on the left and the other on the right, except that under Yu Fanghua, the clan elders secretly added an extra brick.
Even if it was an empty coffin, an empty coffin just for show, they still needed Yu Fanghua and his step-wife Guo Acai to have a high and low status.
That is to say, only Zhou Hai and Rong Yongtai know where the property is, and only Zhou Hai and the Gu family brothers know the cemetery.
Rong Yongtai died, and Zhou Hai and the Gu family brothers were also dying of old age.
So the old men are in a hurry! Things have to be handed over to the rightful owner quickly.
Zhou Yan came out of the cemetery and said to the two old people: "Grandpa Gu, I'll go with you to see the house."
The poverty of the two Grandpa Gu's family is beyond imagination, it can be said that the family is destitute.
Zhou Yan took Liang Xiaonan's hand and said, "Xiaonan, I want to give them some food."
Liang Xiaonan also thought the same way. A few loyal servants consciously guarded the dead master for decades. The best time and years are spent in this lonely and desolate place. This affection is as heavy as a mountain.
"Whatever you want, I will listen to you." Liang Xiaonan said, anyway, there is nothing missing in her space, and even if there is something missing, there is still time for temporary production.
According to Zhou Yan's request, Liang Xiaonan released a truck from the space, put 20 sacks of rice, 10 bags of flour, corn, sweet potatoes, soybeans and other grains, and also loaded a lot of vegetables, dried noodles, etc. of a large truck.
They went back and forth, Gu Da and Gu Er didn't expect that Zhou Yan and Liang Xiaonan carried all the food on their shoulders to the stone house.
Liang Xiaonan thought about the seafood in the space, and seeing that they didn’t even have an extra big vat in their yard, he discussed with Zhou Yan and put out some wine jars, and put seafood and river fresh in them.
There are a lot of fish in their space, if Zhou Yan can build a pond, he would like to build a seafood pond for them and put more fish and shrimp.
Before leaving, Zhou Yan gave them 2000 yuan each. He decided that in the future, he will cover the daily necessities of the two old people and send food every year. When they are old, they will take care of themselves.
Before he left, Liang Xiaonan left them clothes, steamed buns and pancakes, and steaming Wanjia Hanging Stove Duck.
There are a lot of things that can be given, but it is hot in summer, if you give too much, it will break.
The two old people couldn't help crying, the master and the young master are both benevolent and righteous.
After delivering the supplies to the two elderly people of the Gu family, Zhou Yan took Liang Xiaonan to the ancestral hall again.
Zhou Hai said that Yu Fanghua's dowry was buried under the ancestral hall by Zhou Hanqing during his lifetime.
