Chapter 3999 The nagging of ancestral graves

Zheng Wenzhi is one of the most upright and selfless officials Su Mu has ever met, and he has no selfish desires in his heart. In the officialdom of Jiangnan Province, if you say Zheng Wenzhi's words, you will give him a thumbs up and praise him.

Being an official at this level and winning such a reputation is already a success. In fact, in Su Mu's view, people of this level of Zheng Wenzhi are no longer limited to the so-called officials, but become rulers. If the Heavenly Kingdom is regarded as a big game, each province will be a small game.

Zheng Wenzhi is the ruling man of this game of chess.

Officials serve the people, but rulers must transcend this concept and position themselves to serve the country. As long as every ruler can imprint such a concept into his bloodline and urge and supervise the issuance of every government order at all times, why worry about not being prosperous in the country?

After saying goodbye, Su Mu sat in the car and flipped through the documents given by Zheng Wenzhi. It took not long to finish reading them. Then he closed his eyes and thought about it in his mind.

I have to say that this is a very practical policy, and the content is very simple. It is to answer the questions of entrepreneurship of university professors in the current society. Should we start a business? In the past, we would definitely have a one-sided and comprehensive denial. If you are a university professor, you should perform your duties. Teaching and educating people is just how can you do business? Isn’t this not doing your job properly?

But now both the government and schools have adopted support policies for this behavior. Under such a general premise, this matter is very promising. Imagine that those professors who complete teaching tasks in schools can really free up their hands to start a business, not only can they create more social value, but also solve the problem of reemployment of labor.

This is a good thing. But this policy does not seem to have much impact on Lanfeng City, because there is no decent university in this remote prefecture-level city. You don’t even have a university. How about the professor industry? No wonder Zheng Wenzhi got a vaccination in advance, saying that even if it doesn’t work now, it will be a matter of operation in the future. Although there are no universities in Lanfeng City, if this policy is applied to Tianzhou City, it might be possible to make a breakthrough.

Then the enterprises created by university professors are moved to Lanfeng City to form a chain effect, which is a good path for economic development.

Su Mu began to sketch this blueprint silently in his heart.

Otherwise, everyone says that Su Mu is the God of Wealth, and his head is active. If this road is not open, I will take another one. As long as I can achieve the final goal, I will try to walk on any road. As long as one can be passed, it will bring you great benefits.

"Let's sleep for a while. There are still a few hours before we can get to Suzhuang." Su Mu said softly to Ye Xi.

"I'm fine, don't have to rest, you can take a break." Ye Xi said with distress, feeling that Su Mu seemed to have lost a lot of weight over the past period of time.

"I'm not tired either." Su Mu shook his head and signaled that it was okay.

The car moved forward smoothly, but Su Mu's heart had already flown to Suzhuang. It was not as timid as the countryside. He just thought that he had taken his wife home with his legitimate wife this time, and he felt indescribable, and it was very wonderful and excited. He couldn't help but hold Ye Xi's hand tightly. The two looked at each other and smiled. Although they didn't say anything, they were in the same mood.

Suzhuang.

When Su Mu and the others returned home, the entire village had already started to cause a sensation. Every time Su Mu came back, it would be a big event in Suzhuang. As the most promising person to go out of this small village, Su Mu has become the catchphrase for every parent to educate their children. Now that this role model is back, who can take the children over and take a look?

Su Mu was immune to this situation. After returning home, he took Ye Xi to formally meet Su Laoshi and Ye Cuilan, this made the two old men extremely excited. The parents Ye Xi called out from his mouth were like a warm and refreshing sweet spring, which merged into their hearts.

"While there is still time to eat, I will take you to the ancestral grave to kowtow to your grandparents." Su Hushi rubbed his hands happily.

"Old man, is it necessary to go now? It's okay to go tomorrow." Ye Cuilan dissuaded.

"It can't be tomorrow. This is not a worship of ancestors. It's not a special grave. It's just a matter of going to the grave. It's just a matter of going over and talking about it. It makes them happy, so don't be too deliberate." Su Laoshi's mood was a little loud.

“That’s…”

"Mom, it's okay. It's still early anyway. Ye Xi and I accompanied my dad to the ancestral grave and we will be back soon." Su Mu hugged Ye Cuilan's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Yes, let's accompany dad to report the good news to grandparents." Ye Xi also said.

Since Su Mu and Ye Xi agreed, Ye Cuilan stopped saying anything. After preparing some sacrifices for Su Lao Shi, they asked them to go and return early. Although Ye Cuilan had politely dissuaded her before, she actually knew how heavy Su Lao Shi had for her parents. It would be normal to want to tell the deceased master and the old lady that her grandson had such a big deal to marry a wife.

If there is no filial father, how can there be a filial son?

The Su family established their family with filial piety and was famous in the village.

Su Mu certainly knew where his ancestral tomb was. As long as he was from Suzhuang, he would not say who didn’t know. If he didn’t even know the location of his ancestral tomb, he would be poked and scolded by everyone. Every household in Suzhuang has his own ancestral tomb, which means that as long as his family members die, they will be buried in the ancestral tomb.

There was a time when cremation was advocated, but in Suzhuang, the habit of burial was still retained. It was not that it was not followed, but that the concept of burial had long been deeply rooted in each of them. In addition, the policy has been relaxed now, so burial is basically the main focus.

Where to place the ancestral tomb is not something that can be decided casually, but it must be specially invited to see it before making a reservation. People who look at the cemetery have different names in different places, but in the final analysis, they are three words: Feng Shui master.

Everyone hopes that after the death of their ancestors, they can be buried in a place with good feng shui and also protect their descendants. This is a habit passed down from generation to generation and a custom that has been imprinted in the hearts of most people.

Behind a slope in the back mountain of Suzhuang, here is the Su family’s ancestral tomb.

As long as the Su family's ancestors lived here for generations, they were all buried here after their death. Of course, if the Su Mu family is directly affiliated, only his grandfather and grandmother's cemetery is here. The rest are relatives in a neighborhood, so don't worry too much.

Everyone has descendants. If you go to other people’s graves to burn incense and kowtow, it will be unruly.

The place in front of me is different from the other tombs, and it is obviously cleaned and repaired after surprise. Su Laoshi will come here to remove weeds and draw words when he has nothing to do. By the way, he will burn some paper money for his parents and talk. This has become one of Su Laoshi's daily habits and is a natural formation over time. So if Su Laoshi leaves here and lives in a big city, he will feel uncomfortable all over.

"Ye Xi, this is the cemetery of our grandfather and grandma." This was not the first time Su Mu came here, and whispered to look at this familiar place.

"Ye Xi." Ye Xi nodded.

Su Hushi walked to the grave and bent down. He started to pull out the weeds very skillfully, and then said to Su Mu and Ye Xi: "You two come here and kowtow three times to grandparents, and then tell the old man that you are married, that's fine."

"Dad, that's that simple?" Su Mu said in surprise.

"Nonsense, how complicated are you? People have passed away. Can you still want to call them up? Just let them know that their grandson is married. The ancestor worship matters will be discussed until you get married." Su said with a high-brow brow.

"yes."

Su Mu quickly pulled Ye Xi and knelt in front of the grave side by side, looked at the tombstone and said in a deep voice: "Grandpa and grandma. I am Su Mu. Today, I will bring your granddaughter-in-law Ye Xi to worship you and tell you. I am married. If you have spirits in the sky, you will bless us to live our lives happily for the rest of our lives without illness or disaster."

Ye Xi said the same thing.

"Grandpa and grandma, I am your granddaughter-in-law Ye Xi. Today I will come to worship you with Su Mu. As Su Mu's wife, I will take good care of him in the future, so you can rest assured."

The two kowtowed respectfully.

"It's done, go back. Your mother is still waiting for you at home. I'll clean it up here." Su Laoshi waved his hand.

"Dad, let me accompany you." Su Mu hurried forward and said.

"What are you doing with me? I can do this little thing by your dad myself, so you should accompany Ye Xi back. She doesn't know this way, so hurry up and go home." Su Hushi began to urge him impatiently.

Su Mu had no choice but to take Ye Xi home obediently.

When Su Laoshi was the only one left here, he took out all the prepared cake, fruit, tobacco and wine from the basket next to him, then squatted beside the tombstone, picked up the bottle, poured some on the ground, and lit a cigarette and put it on the stone in front of the grave.

"Dad, mom, honestly, I'm here to visit you again. I haven't been here for a while. You are all good there, right? I believe you will definitely live a good life, because our family's life is getting more and more prosperous now, so you don't have to worry about anything at all."

"Did you hear it just now? Xiao Mu brought his wife Ye Xi to kowtow to you. How about it? You are still satisfied with Ye Xi's granddaughter-in-law? Tell me, this granddaughter-in-law, and it's hard to find this granddaughter-in-law. It's his kid's blessing to marry Su Mu."

Crash.

A breeze blew, whirling the leaves beside them, and it also brought the unburned paper money on the ground, floating in the air, like red butterflies dancing playfully.

"My mom and dad, I know you're here, just be able to hear it. Dad, when you are alive, you often tell me that you should train your grandson Su Mu well and have to train a college student. Even when you die, you will be chanting like this. I haven't forgotten your advice. Our family now has college students, and there are only two at once. Su Mu and Su Ke are both very successful."

"I know better than anyone else. According to the old rules, Ye Xi can only come to worship you after entering the door, but the couple really cannot compare with ordinary people. They are all capable. Su Mu is an official and is very busy at work. Ye Xi is a businessman, and is even more busy than Su Mu. So I thought to let Ye Xi come here to worship you now, and I hope you don't think too much and don't be angry."

"Dad, mom, don't talk nonsense with you. Today I'm here to tell you that our family has joined again. When will I see you when I have time? I will come to see you again. Every time I burned the paper money, I will spend it as much as I should. Don't be reluctant to leave it. Save all my life and enjoy it. The children are still waiting for me to go back to cook at home, and the villagers are waiting for me to go back. How about it? Your son is very powerful now, right? Mom and Dad, I'm leaving."
