The next day, early in the morning.
The red moon receded, the sunrise the east,
On the fourth day of the fourth month, it was the Qingming Festival. It was appropriate to sweep graves and pray for blessings.
Especially since the revival of the Crimson Moon, the Qingming Festival was much more important than before.
In fact, all the Ghost Festivities in the old calendar had a huge rise in status.
This was the reverence people had for the unknown.
He prayed that in this era where ghosts were resurrecting, there would be merits from his ancestors and blessings from immortals.
Chen Sufang was a village woman from an old neighborhood nearby.
He was 61 years old this year and was uneducated. He had been working in a small textile factory on the street.
A few years ago, because she was helping her colleagues change shifts, she was in a hurry to go home at night and fell on her foot.
Some of them were disabled.
Naturally, he couldn't continue working in the textile factory. He was fired and went home.
Seeing that she was about to retire, the children did not want their elderly mother to go out to work, so they took the opportunity to let her enjoy life at home.
However, Chen Sufang was someone who couldn't stay idle. She ignored her family's dissuasion and found a job as a cleaner.
Before dawn, Chen Sufang had already put on her cleaning clothes and went out.
Her right foot was obviously tilted dozens of degrees, and only one side of her foot could support the ground.
This was the aftermath of his injury back then.
In the eyes of the young people of this generation, being a cleaner was a thankless job.
Most people even looked at this class with a strange gaze.
Especially when an old lady with a limp was in this industry.
However, in Chen Sufang's opinion,
He had lived on the street for most of his life, and every blade of grass and tree was familiar to him.
It was like his own small courtyard, like his own home.
It was already very good to be able to clean his own courtyard in his spare time and get a salary.
Before dawn, Chen Sufang went out.
She had been busy for two hours and had already swept more than half of the streets she was responsible for.
At this moment, the sky was already bright.
There was only one intersection left. Today's work was considered complete.
There was a convenience store at the last intersection. It had a strange name, convenience store 444.
The boss was a very handsome young university student. He had no parents and was a very nice young man.
When Chen Sufang was tired of cleaning, she would spend two yuan extravagantly to buy a bottle of water to drink.
It wasn't to quench his thirst. He just wanted to help a young man who had no parents run his own shop.
Chen Sufang thought about it and looked at the location of the convenience store. The strange thing was that the convenience store was not open today.
She retracted her gaze and sighed. Every family had their own difficulties.
At the intersection, there was a small abandoned temple.
This temple had always existed in Chen Sufang's memory.
At that time, the Bloody Moon hadn't arrived yet, and Xu Cheng's area hadn't been developed yet. It was just a small village.
When Chen Sufang was young, she would often come to this temple with her family to burn incense and pray for blessings.
At that time, her family was poor. She had never gone to school and was illiterate. However, according to the elders in the village, this small temple was already desolate.
But he worshiped an extraordinary immortal.
He seemed to be the legendary ruler of hell.
"Earth Monarch."
Chen Sufang looked at the end of the bluestone path and muttered.
She took the broom and began to sweep carefully.
This place was actually not under her jurisdiction.
However, all this while, when she was cleaning the road, she would always sweep the road as well.
The morning breeze today seemed to smell better than usual.
There was a faint sandalwood smell. Someone must have come to the temple to pray.
At the thought of this, Chen Sufang cleaned even more seriously.
We can't embarrass the gods in the temple. We have to clean up their homes.
However, due to the inconvenience of her legs and the fact that she had been working for more than an hour, she was already panting.
He swept all the way to the end of the road.
Chen Sufang looked at the temple in surprise.
"Eh, when did this place get renovated?”
Brand new red bricks were built in the originally dilapidated place, which made Chen Sufang very curious.
In addition, she was a little tired, so she simply walked into the gate of the wall.
He sat on the steps not far away from the small temple to rest, and he sized up the familiar temple that had suddenly become unfamiliar.
The statue in the temple seemed to have been renovated. The god now seemed to be young.
This master's craftsmanship is really not bad.
Smelling the sandalwood fragrance in the temple, Chen Sufang smiled and narrowed her eyes.
Da-da-da!
Footsteps sounded in her ears.
Hearing the voice, Chen Sufang hurriedly opened her eyes and raised her head.
A young man in black robes walked out of the temple.
She was not surprised by the young man's clothes.
Nowadays, there were all kinds of clothes on the streets.
Moreover, there was nothing wrong with wearing retro clothes when visiting a temple.
However... From the end of the road to here, he did not seem to see anyone coming to worship the small temple.
This young man…When did he come over?
She looked at the young man in confusion. The young man smiled at her in a friendly manner.
Chen Sufang felt that this smile was very familiar, but she couldn't remember it.
She nodded and smiled at the young man.
Who knew that this young man seemed to be very familiar with her and directly spoke to her in a gentle voice.
"Aunty, why are you sitting here to rest? Don't catch a cold in the morning.”
The handsome young man seemed particularly enthusiastic, a little like his grandson at home.
