As the title says, I took a nucleic acid test yesterday afternoon and took a bus home at 1 a. m. today. My train was originally scheduled for 2:30 p. m., but it was delayed three times and didn't depart until after 6 a. m.
After getting on the bus, it was delayed again. It was supposed to arrive at noon, but it didn't arrive until after 5 p. m.
Then, after exiting the station, I queued for another hour to get a nucleic acid test. There were hundreds of people in the queue, but only one testing window, so we could only wait in line slowly.
After another hour-long taxi ride, I finally got home around 7 PM. My head was completely spinning, and I could barely walk straight; I felt like I was still on the train, swaying back and forth...
Finally, let me explain why it's essential to go home: to avoid being criticized.
The ancestral graves in my area are all located on various hilltops or in the wild. So every year before sweeping the graves, we have to clear the weeds and wild trees around them. It's hard work, as anyone who's done it knows. There's the sun, mosquitoes, snakes and ants... We have to cut down trees, clear the weeds, and repair the graves. After we finish, we're covered in sweat.
My dad used to do all this, but as my old friends know, he was diagnosed with a heart attack last year. Although he recovered without serious injury, it's impossible for him to continue doing these jobs.
I had originally planned not to do any worship or weeding this year, and to wait until next year or another time this year. But my dad said that even if we didn't worship, we still had to weed. The old man is stubborn, and I couldn't persuade him otherwise, so I had no choice but to come back and weed. If I hadn't come back, my dad would definitely have secretly weeded by himself.
There are currently ten ancestral graves to worship at in the family, so up to the days leading up to Qingming Festival, the number of updates will likely be around four, with a chance of reaching six.
Finally, I love you all.
