After walking around for a while and satisfying Lin Xiaole's curiosity, the three of them prepared to visit the grave.
The group of people climbed up the hill and arrived at the grave of the deceased.
There was a family visiting the grave nearby. When a young man was lighting firecrackers, a naughty child behind him lit a string of firecrackers and ran away.
The man was shocked by the sudden explosion of the firecrackers and ran towards the place where the naughty child had thrown the firecrackers.
The firecrackers kept exploding, and the man could only cover his ears and run backwards. Amidst the crackling sounds of the firecrackers, he kept jumping and dodging the firecrackers that exploded beside his feet.
This was the real graveyard disco!
Of course, Lin Xiaole would not cause trouble like the naughty child. After the group of people successfully paid their respects, they went back directly.
After lunch, Uncle left with Lin Caishang and Muffled Dun. They were going to visit Aunt's parents.
Mother Li, Aunt, and Eldest Aunt pulled Uncle to the table and started playing mahjong.
"You only know how to play mahjong." Li Dongsheng grumbled behind his back and went into his study.
The mahjong culture of Sichuan did not discriminate between men and women, old and young. He actually wanted to play mahjong too, but Mother Li excluded him.
Li Xu had nothing to do in the afternoon, so after playing with Lin Xiaole for a while, he decided to bring Lin Xiaole out to play.
He brought Lin Xiaole to Lin You who was watching the game at the mahjong table with her arms crossed.
"Cousin, I have nothing to do in the afternoon as well. Why don't I bring Xiaole out to play?"
Lin You was stunned. She was reluctant to be separated from her child for an entire afternoon, but when she saw Lin Xiaole staring at her, Lin You could not bring herself to reject her.
"Go, Xiaole, you have to listen to Uncle."
Lin Xiaole hurriedly nodded and said timidly, "Mom, do you want to go together?"
"Cousin, come with us too. I'm afraid I can't take care of Xiaole alone."
Lin You was a little moved. "Can I?"
Lin Xiaole cleverly held Lin You's hand. "Uncle, let's go."
Li Xu did not have a domestic driver's license. His license was from Korea. If he dared to drive on the road and got caught, he would be considered driving without a license. He would probably still be in the detention center when the next LCK competition started.
Lin You did not have a domestic driver's license, so the three of them could not drive.
The three of them first went to Du Fu Cottage, which was not far away. It was less than two kilometers before the taxi arrived.
Thousands of years ago, the Min River flowed eastward from Dujiangyan, creating the fertile plains of Chengdu. With Chengdu as the center, the reputation of the Land of Abundance spread everywhere.
Looking at the red and wet areas at dawn, the flowers are heavy in Guan City.
The great poet Du Fu had wandered from place to place throughout his life. He had passed through countless cities, but he had only lived in Chengdu for three years and nine months. However, only Chengdu had a deep connection with Du Fu's name.
In the eyes of countless scholars, Chengdu was the place where Du Fu recited his poems.
Du Fu and Chengdu's scenery had already become one entity. When Chengdu's scenery was mentioned, people would associate it with a great poet who once lived here.
People learned about Chengdu from Du Fu's poems and praised the beauty of Chengdu. Chengdu's scenery was spread along with Du Fu's poems.
The current Du Fu Cottage had been renovated and beautified by later generations. Of course, it was not as simple and crude as when Du Fu wrote The Song of the Cottage Broken by the Autumn Wind.
The three bought tickets and entered the Cottage. Lin Xiaole was very curious about everything and kept exclaiming.
"Wow! This place is so big. Does Mr. Du Fu live here alone? He must be very rich! "
"Of course. Let me tell you, Du Fu was a big landlord in the Tang Dynasty. He was very rich. Xiaole, learn well. In the future, your house will definitely be bigger than this place."
Lin You was in tears as he listened. He only hoped that Lin Xiaole had a bad memory. Otherwise, Lin Xiaole's teacher would have a hard time in the future.
If Lin Xiaole's teacher said that Du Fu was poor and did not even have enough to eat, Lin Xiaole would be the first to disagree. His house was so big. Did he look like a poor person? Even my uncle said that Du Fu was a tycoon.
Lin Xiaole nodded seriously. "In the future, when I buy a big house, can Uncle come and live with me?"
"Good boy. Uncle will be basking in your glory in the future."
Li Xu rubbed Lin Xiaole's head. Lin Xiaole chuckled.
Lin You looked at the happy smile on Lin Xiaole's face and did not correct Li Xu's words.
The three of them walked to a stone tablet. Beside it was a stone statue of Du Fu. It was thin and tall.
Lin Xiaole did not know how to read. "Mother, what is written here?"
Lin You took a look. "This is a poem by Mr. Du Fu, 'A Song About a Thatched Cottage Broken by the Autumn Wind'. In August, the autumn wind howled angrily, sweeping me away."
Lin Xiaole was dizzy from listening. "What does this mean?"
"Look, Xiaole. We can tell from the title. His house was broken by the wind, and Mr. Du Fu sang loudly. What does this mean? A tycoon! When a house is broken, a new house can be built. Of course, he sang to celebrate. He changed his house just like that. Don't you think that Du Fu is very rich? "
Li Xu made up a bunch of nonsense again. Lin Xiaole did not understand but felt that it was impressive. He quickly nodded.
"Uncle, you are so amazing. You know everything."
Li Xu smiled faintly. "If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask. Uncle can tell you everything."
Lin You had never understood why Lin Caichang said that Li Xu was unreliable and liked to talk big. Now, she understood.
Mr. Du Fu's coffin can't hold on any longer!
They walked and stopped along the way, accompanied by Lin Xiaole's exclamations and Li Xu's serious nonsense.
A huge lotus pond came into view. However, there were no lotuses at this time of the year. The koi in the pond were red, black, and white.
Lin Xiaole leaned against the railing and looked at the koi swimming in the water excitedly.
"Mom, why are the fish here so big?"
Li Xu took a closer look. There was something wrong with the scene. The fish were all big and fat. They were so fat that they could barely swim. They were almost three to four times bigger than the normal koi that Li Xu had seen before.
Lin You did not know how to explain it. "Maybe it's because these fish are eating too well?"
"If you don't lose weight when you're young, you'll only be sad when you're old! Xiaole! You must exercise more. Don't eat until you're a big fatty like those fish. "
"Isn't it good to be a little fatter? Grandpa and Grandma always tell me to eat more. "Lin Xiaole did not understand.
Li Xu asked in return, "Did you see Mr. Du Fu's statue just now?"
"I saw it. His house was broken, so he was singing there to celebrate."
This young man's comprehension ability was not bad.
Li Xu was also stunned. "What's so special about Mr. Du Fu's appearance?"
Lin Xiaole thought carefully. "Very thin."
"Yes, thin. So, if you want to become a tycoon like Mr. Du Fu, you must not become a big fatty. Do you understand? You must exercise more and be healthy so that you can earn money to buy a big house in the future. "
Lin Xiaole nodded seriously. "I must exercise more and be healthy so that I can buy a big house in the future."
Wanting to be a tycoon at such a young age, Li Xu was really a nuisance.
