Chapter Five Hundred and Fortieth: Ancestral Land

Hekou Village, Qinghe Town, a very ordinary small village, is located by a small river flowing into the bay, with smooth traffic. The road was built twenty years ago. A few years ago, Chen Mo also donated some money to renovate it.

After so many years of development, the villagers have already had a good life.

This is the location of Chen Mo's ancestral home, and the ancestral halls are all here. I went to elementary school here, and later moved to Huacheng to study because my parents had to work.

The past few years have been the New Year of Binhai City and Huacheng. This year, at the ancestral home, Chen Mo also came back with Xiaoyu and Wushuang.

It is already afternoon, and it is not too cold when the New Year is approaching. Under the reflection of the sun, it is a field where gray and green meet. Buffaloes are on the slope. I vaguely see some people pulling bean sprouts in the fields, and some are drying bean stalks. Cultivation in the next spring, white smoke in the wilderness. The sky is mottled with white clouds, the blue is clear and translucent, and there is no turbidity of the city's gray-blue.

The picture is harmonious.

This was the first time Wushuang saw Tian Ye, and was hugged by Chen Mo and looked around excitedly through the car window.

"Rake, is that a cow? Unlike a cow, there is a calf."

"Yes, it's a water buffalo, not like a cow. He can help the farmer uncle plough the land."

"Rake, there's a fire there."

"That was my uncle cooking bean stalks and planting rice when spring came." Chen Mo said.

"Oh." The little girl nodded, seemingly understanding, and then pointed to the sky: "What kind of bird is that bird?"

"Swallow, look at its scissor tail."

For Wushuang, all of this is novel, and Chen Mo answers all the questions on the road.

The three vehicles crossed the field and soon entered the village.

As the Spring Festival is approaching, a couplet of welcome home is written at the entrance of the village. There are also small colorful flags and plastic lanterns hanging above the road, which looks very festive. Occasionally, you can see a banner with yellow characters on a red background, how much money the boss has donated to his hometown.

Seeing Chen Mo's car passing by, there was nothing on the side of the road, and the auntie who was playing cards and chatting muttered, "Whose car is this? It's so beautiful, it should be very expensive."

"Old Chen's family, the child has developed after college, and opened a very powerful technology company.

A billionaire with a net worth of more than 100 million yuan, the primary school in the village and the middle school in the town are built with the money donated by their family. The cultural stage and temples in the village, as well as the renovated roads, are all newly built by their family's donations, which is a blessing. "

"Are the children of the old Chen family married?"

"I heard that I got married, and it cost a lot of money to run it in Binhai City."

"It's a pity that the old Chen family has only one child. I remember when I was in elementary school, my daughter was still a classmate with him."

The uncle and aunt at the head of the village are gossiping, and Chen Mo's car is also close to the house.

The brand-new four-story villa building has a large and small yard with fields in front of it. Compared with some old small bungalows around it, it is a bit abrupt.

At home, Shao Xuemei was busy in the kitchen, washing vegetables and stewing soup. Chen Shanhe sat in the living room, his face flushed with joy.

In order to live, they had to settle in Huacheng for a long time, but this is the root after all. The ancestral temple and the ancestral cemetery are all here, and the children are also promising, so they come back to repair.

"Why haven't you come back yet? Didn't this kid talk about the entrance to the village?" Chen Shanhe sat in the hall and looked out through the window from time to time.

"You've said it ten times in these two minutes," said Shao Xuemei, who was busy with dinner.

"I don't know if Wushuang has lost any weight." Chen Shanhe didn't care, drinking a small tea while waiting.

When the two were talking, the vehicle had stopped at the door. Chen Mo got out of the car with Wushuang in his arms, and Chen Shanhe also left the teacup and walked out of the house.

"Grandpa, my parents and I are back." The little girl said sweetly when she saw Chen Shanhe.

"Hey, come back, come over and give Grandpa a hug and see if you have lost weight." Chen Shanhe hurriedly greeted him, took Wushuang from Chen Mo's hand, smiled very happily, and walked into the house with Wushuang in his arms: "Grandpa gives it to you. A room is set up, there are many dolls that Wushuang likes, go and see."

"Thank you grandpa, this is the lollipop that Aunt Min gave Wushuang. It's delicious! It's for grandpa." The little girl took out a lollipop from her pocket and handed it to Chen Shanhe.

"Hey, good, good." Chen Shanhe smiled more than a month.

"Grandma has it too."

"Hey, okay, grandma likes it very much, Wushuang is really sensible."

Shao Xuemei was happier than receiving a piece of gold when she took the unparalleled candy.

Chen Mo and Xiaoyu moved the packed things out of the car, and Black Eagle, White Pearl and Mo Nv all came to help. Xiaoyu bought a lot of things, and the trunks of the three cars were full.

"There is no shortage of things at home, why do you buy so many?"

"It's all clothes, New Year's goods, and wine for Dad that Xiaoyu bought for you." Chen Mo held up the gift box in his hand. He usually doesn't have time to buy these things, so Xiaoyu buys these things.

"Xiaoyu doesn't need to buy so much next time, I have it all at home." Hearing that Xiaoyu bought it, Shao Xuemei showed a kind smile: "You wait, I'm cooking, and it will be fine soon."

"Let me help." Xiao Yu said.

"No, it'll be fine soon, you don't need to trouble one more person. The ancestral hall was not repaired before, and you haven't come back in the past few years. Now it is the first time. Shanhe, you accompany Xiao Mo and Xiaoyu to the ancestral hall to offer incense." Shao Xuemei said.

"Yes, let the ancestors meet our daughter-in-law and my good granddaughter." Chen Shanhe hugged Wushuang.

The ancestral hall was next to the house, and it was passed on to Chen Shanhe's generation, and he only had one son, Chen Mo. However, after the ancestral hall has been repaired, there are many things that should be there, and the decoration is also in a retro style. Tablets are old, with new paint.

"Our Chen family was originally prosperous. During the Anti-Japanese War, when your grandfather came home, grandmother and grandmother had already passed away. Brothers and sisters fled, and those who left were nowhere to be seen.

Grandpa and grandma left early. Dad didn't read much, so he didn't have much ability. In those years, he ran around and could only support Chen Mo. The family will depend on you in the future. "

Chen Shanhe lit incense and handed it to Chen Mo and Xiaoyu, his face full of emotion.

Chen Mo and Xiaoyu both took the incense and put it on the incense burner solemnly. Wushuang also bowed in a proper manner and put the incense on the incense burner.

"Okay, worship your ancestors, and go back to eat." Chen Shanhe hugged Wushuang and did not give Chen Mo and Xiaoyu a chance to hug.

After dinner and shower, it was already night.

Chen Mo changed into casual clothes and walked out of the house with Xiaoyu and Mo Nu, and Wushuang.

Every Spring Festival, behind the temple in the village, there will be a stage to watch a play.

Chen Mo donated money to build a cultural stage here, as well as a square and some sports and fitness facilities. The aunts and aunts in the village all dance square dances here. In the past two years, the stage has come to perform, and the village committee will organize square dance performances.

Today's villages are not as closed and backward as described by the outside world, and their living standards are almost the same as or even better than that of ordinary families in cities.

The people in the village, uncles, aunts, and children, didn't care much about the news, so they never saw Chen Mo, and the family went out for a walk, and no one bothered them. Chen Mo didn't want to make a fuss, everyone knew it, so he asked his father to refuse the welcome ceremony in the village.

However, seeing Xiaoyu and Mo Nu are too beautiful and have outstanding temperament, people on the road will always take a second glance and ask the people next to them whose children this is.

"Rake, what is that? I want it too."

Xiao Wushuang saw the marshmallow stall surrounded by children not far away, and was full of curiosity.

"That's cotton candy, Dad bought it for you, Xiaoyu, do you want one too?" Chen Mo walked over with Wushuang and asked casually.

"I'm so old, so I don't want it anymore." Xiao Yu smiled and shook his head.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and the cultural square in the village is very lively. There are street stalls selling toys, snacks, rabbits and tortoise pets, snacks and barbecues, hoops, and theatergoers.

Many people returning home from other places will come out for a walk, and the lively atmosphere is very harmonious.
