Chapter 390 - 380: Reluctant to Let Go
Tomb-Sweeping Festival rain drizzles down.
Tomb-Sweeping Festival is a school holiday, as well as a day for tomb sweeping.
Though there is a custom of not bringing women along for tomb sweeping, Qin Guanglin didn’t care at all. His own wife, shouldn’t he bring her to meet his old dad?
Driving his family to North Mountain Cemetery, he didn’t just bring food like before. He Fang picked several bouquets of flowers from the nearby flower shop, following Qin Guanglin, turning left and right, they arrived at the secluded grave. They cleaned up the dead branches and fallen leaves around it and then offered incense.
"Dad, I’ve come to see you again."
Qin Guanglin gazed at the photo on the tombstone, feeling quite sentimental.
"In the blink of an eye, I’m almost as old as you were...Tch, sigh, it’s an inevitable journey. I wonder if you felt the same way looking at me, the little guy, as I feel now."
"Your granddaughter is four now, she can run and jump, healthy and well, all is good. You don’t need to worry about anything. I have a wife, and a daughter too, life feels complete. Just need to get through that thing in two years, then it’ll be truly perfect, you’ll have to bless me..."
He Fang, holding an umbrella, nudged him gently. What nonsense he was talking.
"This is my wife, He Fang. Attracted by fate from a thousand miles away, marrying her was also a blessing from the ancestors of the Qin family. My mother really likes her... I like her too, haha. The house I burned for you last time, are you used to it? This time, I brought you a car, a Maybach, much better than the beat-up car I drive..."
The light drizzle didn’t affect the blaze in the fire basin; flames leaping and casting flickering shadows across Qin Guanglin’s face. In a low voice, he murmured about recent events, how since he became a father, he understood the difficulties his own father faced.
