Zhang Jiaqiang felt that he was unfilial. Because he had to be buried, he did not even dare to do the funeral, and quietly buried his father in the cemetery in the middle of the night.

Once he thought of all these things, Zhang Jiaqiang felt that the dignity he thought in his heart was nothing. He returned to his hometown not to work hard, but to atone for his sins. I want to stay on this land where my father has spent his whole life until he dies in the future.

As soon as he said this, Zhang Lan felt that there was no need to persuade. Zhang Jiaqiang did this carefully. He has his own set of perceptions and ideas. There is no need for outsiders to impose what is best on him.

Zhang Lan changed the topic: "Drink and drink, don't talk about the past. We can't change what happened, just live the best time in the future."

"Zhang Lan, I'm inviting you to drink today because I have something I want to discuss with you. You can see if it can be handled well. If you think it's difficult, just pretend I didn't say anything." Zhang Jiaqiang raised his glass and clinked it with Zhang Lan After having a drink, he spoke.

"You have to tell me what it is first. If you don't tell me what it is, how can I know whether it is easy to handle or not?" Hearing Zhang Jiaqiang speak, Zhang Lan breathed a sigh of relief. He was not afraid of you saying it, but he was afraid that you would keep drinking. explain. After what you said, everyone feels at ease when eating and drinking.

If a friend like this from the same village asks for help with small things, Zhang Lan will help him if he is able.

If nothing else, it’s because my parents live in the village and all their relationships are in the village. I’m doing a small favor. The reason is not that there will be any reward now, but that the elderly family members will have face in the village and live in the future. It's more comfortable.

Nowadays, many people who live abroad and have elderly family members in their hometowns feel that they may not return to their hometowns to live in the future, and any human connections they have are gradually broken off.

It's not that there's anything wrong with this approach. After all, there are all kinds of people in the countryside. Not everyone can encounter the same simple folk customs as the legend.

In the past, living in rural areas allowed us to see more clearly what naked human nature was. It’s so common to hate you and laugh at you but not.

The reason is that there were no more options in the countryside at that time. Most people spent their entire lives dealing with the few acres of land in front of them, and the family's livelihood depended on the weather.

In this case, it is for a mouthful of food in times of famine. In good years, it is common for two families to have a blood feud in order to occupy more land.

The idea of ​​favoring sons over daughters was also established under this situation. If your family is sparse, some people will take advantage of the fact that they have many children and exchange them for one of your children.

Later, as society developed, farmers who were originally tied to the land still had more choices.

When people have the right to choose and have other livelihoods besides farming, they naturally start to pay attention to other things.

It depends on what kind of family a married woman values ​​in the first place, and how many brothers can establish a family. It began to gradually change into whether the child can make money, whether the burden on the family is heavy, and what benefits it can bring to the family.

In just ten years, the initial frown after giving birth to a daughter turned into laughter. "My daughter is a caring little cotton-padded jacket" has become a saying on most people's lips.

Zhang Jiaqiang asked Zhang Lan to help with something that was neither big nor small. He wanted to ask Zhang Lan to show his father a good cemetery. He had already found several locations. When Zhang Lan was free, he would go check out the one he chose. Just the location.

He doesn't expect to find any wealth or anything like that, as long as he can keep his family in peace. I don’t ask for any big help, I just ask for it to not be a hindrance.

He had asked people to see the current location of the cemetery a few years ago. People said that the location of the ancestral grave was not very good. It was still a little strong at first. Later, due to the construction of waterways and signal towers, the location of his family's cemetery no longer had any strength. .

What Zhang Jiaqiang said is similar to the situation of the ancestral tombs in Zhang Lan's family. Similarly, when the water conservancy was built, the trend at that time was that feudal superstition must be overthrown, so many people did not care whether it was damaged or not.

Zhang Lan and his team also started to remedy the situation because something happened not long afterward.

A small part of Zhang Jiaqiang's family position was destroyed, but the future generations have developed well. Not to mention rich and powerful, but the families are all safe and sound.

So even after they found out that it had been damaged, the families had no intention of moving the ancestral grave.

When the theory of Feng Shui became popular again in recent years, Zhang Jiaqiang's father began to think about finding a good location for his own use. The reason is that too many people have been buried in the ancestral graves of Zhang Jiaqiang's family. At most, Zhang Jiaqiang's generation is buried, and there is no room for those below. Each family needs to find a way to change land or find a location.

He feels that Zhang Jiaqiang will live in a big city from now on. Now that he has found a good location, the family will not talk about anything else. Even if the next three or four generations will not come back often in the future, they will have a place to bury someone in the future.

At that time, Zhang Jiaqiang's father felt that he was still young, and he only kept the matter of finding a cemetery in his mind. All he wanted to do was to search slowly first, and not be anxious if he found a suitable location, just in case he could find a better one.

Nowadays, there are not many or no ready-made places around Qingshan Village. Some of the newly built cemeteries are based on the old graves, and some are transformed into the places you want according to the terrain.

Among the several locations Zhang Jiaqiang found, three were near Qingshan Village, and two were near his aunt's home. His aunt's house is in a village not far east of Qingshan Village, which is closer to the mountains. Most of the residents in the village have moved out, and now most of the people living in the village are old people.

Since coming back, Zhang Jiaqiang went to his aunt's house several times. During the chat, he heard that Zhang Jiaqiang wanted to find a good cemetery for his father, but there were not many suitable places in Qingshan Village.

His aunt said that in the past two years, people from out of town often came to look for places to bury graves around his village, so if Zhang Jiaqiang couldn't find a place, he could look for them in their village. No matter it's money or something, because the Zhang family is strong, they won't be like other outsiders who charge hundreds of thousands for a third of the land, and have to pay extra every time they enter.

Zhang Jiaqiang found several places by himself based on drones and satellite maps, and had not yet checked with his master. Now there are too many people in Zhang Lan and his eight villages looking for a good cemetery. Zhang Jiaqiang is worried that if he finds someone who doesn't know his identity, he will be cut off after looking at the place.

This is not because Zhang Jiaqiang is unfounded, but similar things have happened in nearby villages. After one family asked Feng Shuixian to find a good place, they went to discuss the location with the owner, but they couldn't reach an agreement for a while because of money.

As a result, the Feng Shui fairy who was hired was careless and told the person where he wanted to be while having dinner. As a result, someone with money came to the house and took over the place.
