    Although it is an express hotel, it has everything you need, including two single beds, bedside tables, coat racks, bathrooms, air conditioners, TVs and telephones. What is surprising is that there is free wifi in the room, but the speed is really slow.  It's so slow that smoke comes out of your head.  After cleaning up his personal hygiene, Liu Jinpeng called home to report that he was safe, then went to bed and turned off the lights to sleep.

    Although Ye Ling was covered with a thin quilt, she was not sleepy at all. Instead, she had a night chat with Liu Jinpeng.  She doesn't have as many thoughts as other girls. No, it should be said that she has a lot of thoughts, but she is not on the same level as other girls.  She asked with great interest about Liu Jinpeng's plans and intentions, which was the same as other girls, but it was just out of pure curiosity.

    Liu Jinpeng also talked about some of his previous experiences as a single donkey traveler. For example, he once walked more than 70 kilometers alone without meeting anyone on the way. He could only eat dry food and drink cold water. In the end, he even ran out of dry food.  I had to dig wild vegetables to eat.  Fortunately, this experience only happened once, and from then on, he was able to accept various emergencies calmly.

    As the two of them talked, they gradually became a little sleepy. First, Ye Ling stopped talking. Liu Jinpeng said a few words but got no response. He raised his head and looked at the other side. She had fallen asleep with her mouth half open.

    The weather began to improve the next morning. It rained for half the night yesterday and the ground was still wet, but fortunately it did not affect travel.  While eating breakfast on the street in the morning, Ye Ling couldn't get used to the local pasta and stopped eating after one bite, so he bought her porridge and pickles. Liu Jinpeng had to get rid of the things she didn't eat.

    Today we will set off from Honghu City to Xiaogang Town, a small town on the edge of Honghu Lake.  It combines the beauty and elegance of a small town in the south of the Yangtze River and the rough style of a small town in the north.  Xiaogang Town is not far from the city, only 14 kilometers, and you can get there in a short time along the newly built asphalt road.

    Ye Donglai is buried in the hilly cemetery in the northeast of Xiaogang Town. This is the best cemetery found nearby.  In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the Ye family moved from the north to settle in Huguang, probably to escape the nomads from the north, or to avoid military service, or to avoid repeated raids by bandits and officers and soldiers.  In short, the Ye family moved to Huguang and spent about a hundred years expanding their family's fields.

    But by Ye Donglai¡¯s grandfather¡¯s generation, it was obvious that getting food from the fields was not as good as working in a factory.  And there are fewer and fewer tenants leasing land.  The current situation forced the Ye family to make changes.  Ye Donglai's father was one of the first Ye family children to study abroad. After he returned to China, he brought many novel ideas and had a great influence on young Ye Donglai.

    Ye Donglai and his younger brother Ye Nanfeng belong to the first generation born after the war. After finishing middle school, they decided to go to the United States to make a living.  This move was supported by the old man.  But he has never been able to return to the land where he was born and raised.  The story of him and his brother is not what this book is about.  He and Ye Nanfeng were just a microcosm of the times at that time.

    Ye Donglai knows that he will die eventually, and he hopes that he will return to his roots, but Ye Ling has no such worries.  She didn't have the time to consider such a thing.  Even to her, there was no so-called concept of kinship. The Ye family itself was sparsely populated, and the interactions among its branches were relatively indifferent. Ye Donglai and Ye Nanfeng were even more isolated from other clan members when they left the country.

    And she has no contact with the Man family of her mother, Man Boli. This surname is also very rare among Chinese, so if she really wants to find it, she can definitely find it.  But for Ye Ling, she had no memory of what her parents looked like. Apart from seeing them in photos, all she could remember was Ye Donglai.  And her mother, Man Boli, had voluntarily betrayed her family's will in order to marry Ye Nanfeng. The Man family no longer considered Man Boli to be a member of their clan, and Ye Ling would not be so hot-tempered as to be cold-hearted.

    So Ye Ling lives a very simple life now. Her main life trajectory is to revolve around Liu Jinpeng. She has never been shy about her purpose, which is to be Brother Yixiu's wife.  It would be perfect to have a few more children that you can play with in your free time.  As for the other sisters, well, that is an issue that cannot be interfered with, so it is better not to consider it.

    The Comet prototype car is parked in the cemetery parking lot. From here, you can see the cemetery gate without any obstruction. There are several small kiosks near the gate, which sell flowers and memorial supplies. Of course, they are all environmentally friendly.  Firecrackers are not allowed to be set off in this cemetery, so there is no smell of gunpowder smoke that can often be smelled, and there are no red confetti on the ground.

    Although it didn¡¯t rain, the sky was overcast. The leaden sky and a few wisps of cold wind occasionally drifted by, making it look like a storm was coming.

    After the two got off the car, they registered at the cemetery gatekeeper. This was a necessary procedure.  Knowing that they were sweeping the tomb, the gatekeeper opened the small door to let them in, and reminded them: "Don't stay too long. It has just rained recently, and the gloomy atmosphere is quite heavy." He must have said something.Well intentioned, you can see on the notice board next to it that a few weeks ago a woman who was in poor health fainted as a result of staying in the cemetery for two hours.

    Liu Jinpeng guessed that it was because she cried too hard, but the notice stated that it was caused by heavy yin energy, and the woman¡¯s family seriously invited a heavenly master to perform the ritual.  Some villagers said this was because they were too resentful or blamed their relatives for not coming often enough. Liu Jinpeng thought this was all nonsense.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The two of us walked along the stone road to the back of the hill walking along the stone road. Ye Donglai¡¯s tombstone is located at the back, which is a better location, and a lot of money was spent on it.  After finding the more conspicuous tombstone, Ye Ling placed the flowers she bought earlier in front of the tombstone, squatted down and touched the photo on the tombstone.

    "It's been half a year, uncle, how are you doing? Ye Zi has come to see you. I hope you don't blame me for not coming too little."

    Liu Jinpeng's eyes were a little moist, and he blinked quickly, but the atmosphere was soon broken by Ye Ling herself, and she continued: "Uncle, you will definitely forgive me. The war ahead is tense, and Ye Zi cannot be separated. This  A lot of things have happened in the past six months, and I really want to talk to you about it."

    Hearing Ye Ling joking like this, Liu Jinpeng stretched out his hand and tugged her hair to tell her to pay attention.  Ye Ling turned back and smiled: "It doesn't matter. My uncle is the best to me. No matter how crazy I am, he will never blame me." After saying this, she put her arms around the stone tablet and put her face on the photo.  , muttering words that no one could hear.

    After a while, Ye Ling let go of her hand and turned around to wipe her tears. Liu Jinpeng stretched out his hand to pull her up, but she said: "Brother Yixiu, you promised to marry me in front of my uncle. Can you propose again now?"

    Liu Jinpeng was a little dazed.  This is different from his plan. Ye Ling smiled and shook his hand and urged: "Okay, Brother Yixiu?"

    "Are you sure?" Liu Jinpeng asked, squeezing her hand. Seeing her nodding, he said, "Your wedding dress is still in the car. Let me get it for you."

    Since she wants to do it.  Then try to do your best.  Just forget about planning.  When Ye Ling heard that there was a wedding dress, her eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "Okay. You are still hiding this thing, you are so cunning."

    Liu Jinpeng smiled, turned around and went downhill to get his things. He happened to be wearing trousers and a white shirt today. When he returned to the car, he could temporarily change his jacket into a black suit.  The gatekeeper felt a little strange when he saw him coming out alone. Liu Jinpeng explained that he wanted to get something and he wanted to ask a few more questions, but Liu Jinpeng stopped him with a tip and promised not to cause environmental problems.

    The wedding dress was packed in a suitcase, covered with two layers of paper bags and plastic bags. After taking it out of the car, Liu Jinpeng put on a black suit and bought a bouquet of lilies at the door. Although they were not perfume lilies, they were okay.  The gatekeeper watched for a long time and still didn't know what this man wanted to do, but since he didn't intend to cause trouble in the cemetery, it didn't matter.

    After entering the cemetery and letting Ye Ling put on her wedding dress, Liu Jinpeng once again followed the steps of proposing, knelt down on one knee, held up the ring and asked, "Will you be my bride?"

    Ye Ling burst into tears with joy and forced Liu Jinpeng to put on the ring. She tried her best to suppress her emotions and said to the photo with sobs: "Uncle, have you seen it? I am not alone now. You can rest assured. I have a rest."  Brother will take good care of me."

    When her intense emotions calmed down a little, Liu Jinpeng planned to take her away from here. The original plan was all scrapped, and he had to do whatever he wanted.  But Ye Ling didn't intend to let it go. She grabbed Liu Jinpeng and said with bright eyes, "Did you forget one of the steps?"

    "What?" Liu Jinpeng was confused, but he saw Ye Ling slowly closing her eyes.

    He patted his head. He had indeed forgotten an important step, so he reached out to hold the girl's shoulders, tilted his head and kissed her gently.  Ye Ling immediately became dissatisfied: "Brother Yixiu, how can you be so unfavorable to one another? I clearly see that you and Liu Liu are not like this."

    No matter what, she would never allow herself to be worse than Liu Liu. That time she secretly saw the two of them hugging each other tightly, but this time there was even a punch distance between him and her.  Liu Jinpeng didn't know how to explain to her the difference between a normal kiss and a ceremonial kiss, and Ye Ling definitely didn't care about this difference. He had only one solution to this.

    That means following her request.

    Ye Ling was satisfied. For the first time, she discovered that kissing could actually cause dizziness. The suffocating feeling as if lacking oxygen was so wonderful.  When she fell limply into Liu Jinpeng's arms, she couldn't help but complain: "Brother Yixiu, you have never kissed me like this before. Liu Liu has been laughing at me like a child. It's all your fault."

    Liu Jinpeng smiled and said, "To make it up to you, do it again?"

    &nbsp"Then let's do it again, but this time Ye Ling tried her best to open her eyes to see Liu Jinpeng's expression, but she was surprised to find that he also had his eyes open, and immediately shouted in disbelief: "Ah, why are you doing this? Kissing  It¡¯s time to close your eyes! I hate it!¡±

    Liu Jinpeng quickly explained: "I want to see your beautiful face clearly. Okay, okay, I will close my eyes again." He didn't dare to accuse her of opening her eyes, so she didn't have to do anything else today.  Let¡¯s discuss this issue.

    No matter what, kissing can never replace food. In the end, the two of them left the cemetery clinging to each other.  The janitor watched them leave, counting the money and muttering: "Rich people really have nothing to do, so they come here to get married." (To be continued)
