Chapter 15 Pulling Carrots
"Uncle Nine, about the burial of my father's coffin, I wonder if you chose an auspicious day?"
"Master Ren, I advise you to think about it again, this kind of thing is better than being still. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"I have already thought about it clearly, and the feng shui watcher said that after 20 years, the coffin must be relocated and buried, so that it will be beneficial to our family. ”
Seeing that Master Ren had made up his mind, Uncle Nine did not persuade him again, and when he pinched his fingers, he chose an auspicious day:
"Well, we'll break ground in three days from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. ”
As soon as Master Ren heard that Uncle Nine should do this, he was also relieved:
"And what do we need to prepare?"
"Money, of course!"
Don't guess, it's a moth out of Wencai, and it's really stupid. Seeing that Wencai was neither big nor small, Uncle Nine was also very angry:
"And how much do you want?"
"Of course it is...."
At this moment, Wen Cai reacted: he had trespassed, so he quickly took back the five fingers that were stretched out. Facing the ninth uncle who was not good-looking, this guy withered directly, drooping his head and pretending to be an ostrich.
However, Master Ren has a big family, and this little money is not in his eyes at all, for him, as long as things are done beautifully, everything is not a problem.
"Small meaning, small meaning....."
At this moment, a waiter came over and whispered in the ear of Master Ren:
"Master Ren, Huang Million is here, right over there. ”
"I'm sorry everyone, I'll be with you, go and say hello, please. Waiter, get some tarts and serve them up. ”
"Okay, wait a minute. ”
As a result, as soon as Mr. Ren left the table, another waiter came over with a large tray. He first put a jar of white sugar in the middle of the table, and then put two cups of drinks in front of everyone, one white and one black, which should be milk and pure coffee, Chu Nan guessed.
"Master, one black and one white, which one to drink first?"
"Are you thirsty?"
And seeing that this café is so exquisite, Chu Nan is also a little restrained, which makes me feel embarrassed after drinking instant coffee for so many years, especially the teapot and teacup that hold the coffee are also exquisite, quite a bit of Turkish tribute porcelain.
However, if you haven't eaten pork and never seen a pig run, there are so many pretending criminals on TV, there is always one suitable for this situation.
"Uncle Jiu, this black is pure coffee from foreign countries, and ordinary people can't get used to its bitter taste, so you can add some milk and sugar, so it will be much softer. ”
Hearing Chu Nan's prompt, Uncle Nine breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he still has the foresight, otherwise he will really be embarrassed.
Just when Ninth Uncle Shi Shiran was adding milk, Wen Cai was already staring at the jar of sugar on the table.
"I'm going to add more sugar...."
Don't laugh at it, during this period, there was a shortage of materials, the gap between the rich and the poor was huge, and those children from poor backgrounds really didn't even eat sugar.
At the moment of speaking, the waiter also sent the egg tart, to be honest, Chu Nan is a northerner, and he doesn't like desserts very much (except sweet zongzi), so he didn't do it, but introduced it to Uncle Jiu:
"This is foreign dim sum, which is made of flour, cream, milk, sugar, ghee, eggs, etc., but this is also the same as Chinese dim sum, each family has its own secret recipe, you old people try it. ”
Seeing that Uncle Nine made a move, Wen Cai dared to stretch out his hand. At this time, he was eating happily with a mouthful of egg tarts and coffee, but the smile from the heart made people feel a little sad.
"Master, the egg tarts are delicious, can we bring them back to Qiusheng?"
At this moment, Chu Nan was really impressed by Wencai. Although Qiu's life is usually a little out of tune, and he often pits him, he can still think of his brother when he is happy, which is definitely commendable.
At this time, Master Ren is not there, but Miss Ren is here, and it is obvious that she has also changed her opinion of Wencai.
"Waiter, a few more tarts to pack. ”
"Okay. ”
"I'm really sorry to break the bank. ”
"Uncle Nine is polite. ”
-----------
Three days passed in a flash, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day for the old lady to lift the coffin, and Chu Nan also had to join in the fun.
At this time, in front of the tomb of the old lady, the altar was built high, with high incense red candles, seasonal melons and fruits plus three tribute wines, in short, this time the old man attached great importance to the tomb.
First of all, the ninth uncle in an apricot yellow robe, put on three sticks of incense, followed by Master Ren, and his legendary nephew, the security captain.
"Uncle Jiu, back then, Mr. Feng Shui said that this land was difficult to find, and it was a good hole. ”
Uncle Nine looked around, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, the terrain is open, and it is really a good yin house.
"Yes, this cave is a dragonfly point**, also known as the hidden dragon's nest and the dragon's nest, which can prosper the descendants and enrich future generations. This hole is three zhang long and four is actually a four, wide and long one zhang three, and it is really a three, so the coffin can not be buried flat, and it must be buried by law. ”
Hearing what Uncle Nine said perfectly, Master Ren stretched out his thumb:
"That's amazing, Uncle Nine. ”
"Master, what is a French funeral? Is it a French funeral?"
"Nonsense!"
At this moment, a group of strong laborers with big shoulders and round waists walked over, and they were all villagers of the town. Take a part-time job in your spare time to earn some extra money.
"Uncle Nine, are you done worshipping God?
"That's it. “
Seeing Uncle Nine nodding, a group of people bulldozed the tombstone and grave bag with a chatter, and then excavated the coffin.
Seeing that the villagers were busy, Qiusheng was bored waiting, so he asked Uncle Nine for the previous question:
"Master, what exactly is a legal burial?"
"The so-called legal burial is a vertical burial, I don't know if I'm right?"
It is not so much that Uncle Nine is answering his disciple's questions, but that he deliberately said it to Master Ren.
"Yes, Mr. Feng Shui said that if the ancestors are buried upright, the descendants must be great. ”
"Isn't that great?"
Hearing this, Master Ren shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"In the past 20 years, my family's business has become worse and worse, and now I can only barely keep my old capital. ”
And Uncle Nine had already seen the clue, and it was only at this moment that he took the opportunity to ask:
"Then Mr. Feng Shui has a grudge against your Ren family?"
"Hatred?"
"Did Old Lady Ren have a holiday with him before his death?"
Master Ren thought for a moment, and finally provided a message:
"This piece of land originally belonged to Mr. Feng Shui, and my father knew that it was a good hole, so he bought it for a lot of money. ”
"It's just a lure, is there any coercion?"
Hearing such a sensitive question, Master Ren just smiled and was embarrassed to speak.
"I think you must have coerced, otherwise, he wouldn't have fixed you, and he also put cement on the dragonfly point. ”
"Ah, what do you mean by that?"
"As the so-called snowflakes cover the top, dragonflies touch water, and the coffin head can't touch the water, how can he order water? He still has a little conscience, let you get up in the coffin in 20 years, it will harm you for half your life, not your whole life, and it will harm you for one generation, but not for your eighteen generations!"
At this time, I heard the group of migrant workers shouting: "I see the coffin!"
Hearing this, Uncle Nine and Master Ren hurried over, and the coffin head was indeed exposed in the grave. Since the coffin was buried vertically, it was really difficult to excavate, so the villagers planned to pull the coffin out of the pit like a turnip.
"Do your best!"
"Hey!"
With the help of the gantry and pulley, a dozen or so people tossed for a long time, and finally pulled the coffin out of the grave.
"Slow, slow, gentle..... Good!"
"Loosen the rope, nail it!"
