My Loyal and Lovely Husband

Chapter 71: Going to the Grave



They walk to the grave one after another, and they find the grave of Jin Weiwei’s mother.

Before they arrive, Jin Weiwei blames Jin Dabao in heart, for he even doesn’t remember her mother’s Memorial-day. He must not have come to worship her mother those years. The grave hasn’t been cleaned for many years. It must be weedy and hard to find now. However, On arrival, she soon finds the tomb through her memory.

To their surprise, the tomb is not much neglected, but it has been tidied up. There is a circle of brick and stone roofs around with a new tombstone here.

This is quite different from the small mound in the memory of the original Jin Weiwei.

If Jin Weiwei is not literate to read “Xiaocui” on the tombstone, she really can’t believe that it is her mother’s tomb.

“What’s happen?”

Jin Weiwei puts down the sacrificial offerings in her hands, and walks around the tomb which is completely different from the surrounding mounds. Finally, she fixes her attentions on the new offerings in front of the tomb.

Jin Weiwei turns her head and looks at Little Rich. They both look puzzled.

There is no doubt that they are not the only ones who know that today is her mother’s Memorial-day. Someone has come in advance.

Moreover, this person must come not only this year, otherwise the tomb couldn’t be maintained so well.

But who is he?

What’s the relationship between him and Xiaocui?

Jin Weiwei remembers the fat monk in Quan’an temple and the money in the forest. She becomes more confused about Xiaocui’s identity.

However, she and Little Rich have no idea now. They have been puzzled for a while, and finally give up.

Jin Weiwei kneels in front of the tomb, puts down the sacrifice, pours a full glass of white wine, and sprinkles a circle around the tomb.

“Mum, I used to be stupid and didn’t come to worship you. I’m unfilial……Don’t worry. Now I grow up and could take good care of myself. The silver coins you gave me have been kept well now. I won’t let them be robbed again… ”

The sun is gradually setting in the west, and the breeze is blowing on face. Jin Weiwei suddenly feels sad.

Little Rich also kneels next to her, kowtows to his mother-in-law for three, and then helps Jin Weiwei up.

“What’s the matter?”

“Nothing. I just suddenly remember something…… Let’s go. He is waiting for us at home. ”

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the two leave the cemetery and walk towards the village side by side. The setting sun has drawn their shadows long. A gust of wind blows. The joss papers scattered by Jin Weiwei in front of the grave are blown away.

“Little rich, will Jin Dabao get into my room?”

“Yes.”

Little Rich answers without much thinking. Jin Dabao is not an honest man. Surely, bad habits are hard to change

They arrive home soon, and the door is still closed. Now, Tao Xiaoqing should be in the butcher shop and prepares to close the shop.

Jin Weiwei and Little Rich enter the room quietly. Just at the door, they find that the leaf has fallen on the ground.

Two people look at each other and know the situation.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Jin Weiwei gets into the room and checks. Jin Dabao is so agile that he leaves no traces. Moreover, nothing is lost.

Jin Weiwei smiles: “No one could steal my money! No way!”

Little Rich glances at her, with a hint of inquiry.

In fact, there is no place to hide money inside and outside the house. He wonders where Weiwei hides the money that even Jin Dabao can’t find it after rummaging.

Jin Dabao can’t find the money. He must be very angry.

After confirming that nothing is lost in the room, Jin Weiwei walks to the kitchen quickly. They had their lunch at Qian’s today. Weiwei found Little Rich was restrained and didn’t eat well, so she wants to cook for him as soon as possible.

“Oh! You are back! ”

Just after Weiwei finishes cooking, the voice of Jin Dabao suddenly comes from the gate. He and Tao Xiaoqing come back from the meat shop.

Jin Weiwei comes to the table with the last dish, and says indifferently: “Where else can I go if I don’t come back?”

“Welcome back. I’m tired and hungry after working all day…” Looking down at the dishes on the table, Jin Dabao becomes unhappy at once. “Alas, why there is no meat dish? Our shop is a butcher shop. Why are you too mean to cook meat dish! ”

His words suddenly arouse Weiwei’s anger in heart. She shouts: “Jin Dabao, how shameless you are to ask for meat? Don’t you remember what day it is today?! ”

Jin Dabao is stunned and says: “What day? No matter what, why are you so angry? Anyway, if you can’t rent your shop, don’t vent your anger on me! ”

“Today is August 25. It’s my mother’s memorial-day. It’s the essential etiquette to eat vegetarian food all day today. As her husband, you not only fail to go to her grave, but also want to eat meat. You’re shameless!”

Jin Dabao opens his mouth and calculates the date. Today is August 25. It seems to be the memorial-day of her mother.

“Then you…… Then you could have told me. You are too cruel. Who are you scaring? If you don’t want me to eat, then I don’t eat… ”

Jin Dabao knows his fault, so he stops talking and sits on the farthest stool from jinweiwei.

During the dinner, no one speaks again. After eating, Jin Dabao suddenly asks:

“How about your visit to the county today? Did you rent a shop? ”

Jin Weiwei suddenly stops for a while, and comes up with an idea.

“Well, don’t mention it. I haven’t rented a shop at all. It’s not so simple as I think!”

Jin Dabao turns his eyes and says: “I’ve already told you that it’s not so easy to open a shop in the county. Staying in the village and selling meat is good enough, right?”

To be honest, Jin Dabao doesn’t want Jin Weiwei to go to the county at all. If she succeeds, she will influence his second sister’s business. Although Jiang Qingshou won’t let him go back at all, but Jin Xiaodie is still his sister. He is much closer to her in relationship than to Jin Weiwei. He feels guilty for he fails to finish Jin Xiaodie’s task. If Jin Weiwei couldn’t go to the county, he would be relieved.

Jin Weiwei looks at Jin Dabao’s cunning face, and silently shows a mocking smile.

After so many incidents, Jin Xiaoyan and Jin Xiaodie will not keep Jin Dabao anymore. Jin Dabao will follow her like a cumbersome burden. How can he freely eat and drink every day?

Her father should afford for her new shop.
