Chapter 162: Third Grandpa Explains

"What's going on?"

"There's a power outage?!"

"No, it's still lit in the kitchen and in the east and west rooms!"

"The light bulb is broken."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€

People are talking and speculating.

Seeing this, Hao Fujian hurriedly said to his eldest son Hao Lancheng: "Boss, is there any light bulb at home?" Hurry up and change one. ”

Hao Lancheng hadn't moved yet, "pop", and the lights turned on again.

"Hell, the lights are going crazy too." Someone scolded.

"I guess it's a bad contact." Hao Lancheng explained self-deprecatingly, which can be regarded as the best answer.

People's affection is stable and stable.

Don't use the author to explain, everyone knows what is going on:

It turned out that when Tian Qingqing saw that the third grandfather Hao Fumao was about to hand the written family separation list to the "director", he immediately transmitted the black girl and asked him to extinguish the electric light. Then in the dark shadow, he swapped the one he wrote with the one written by Hao Fumao. In order to exaggerate the atmosphere, the lights were deliberately turned on a little later. Seeing that his grandfather Hao Fujian asked his uncle Hao Lancheng to get the light bulb, he transmitted the black girl again and turned on the electric light.

"It's cool outside, come inside, read the family mile, come and listen, press the handprint." "Director" shouted outside.

The five men from outside soon came to the hall.

As soon as I heard that the family list was read, Basket Caiye and Dai Shujuan also came over and wanted to hear how the family list was written.

The "director" coughed, cleared his throat, and then said to everyone: "The separation list has been written, I will read it to you now, and if there is no opinion, everyone will sign and draw the seal-press the fingerprint!"

"Listen, everybody, I'll read it below, ah!"

Just listen to the "director" read aloud:

"'It is now proved that:

"'Hao Lancheng and Hao Lanshun are brothers born to the same parents. The two are united, filial piety to their parents, everyone has a good reputation, and the sun and the moon can be seen.

"'The two brothers read that their parents were old and liked to be quiet, and now they decided to let their parents move to live in Hao Lanshun's house to enjoy the blessings of their old age.

"'Considering that his father Hao Fujian still has the ability to earn work, the second elder set up a separate account and settled separately. The two brothers shared the burden of the shortfall, as well as the illness and death in the future. The second elder must not be neglected under any pretext.

"'It is hereby certified.' ”

As soon as the "director" was finished, everyone present was stunned.

It was very quiet in the hall. The air seemed to be frozen, and a match could light a raging fire; You can also hear the sound of landing when a needle drops.

"Hey, Director, that's not what I wrote? How did you tamper with it? ”

A moment later, Hao Fumao first broke the silence and asked sharply.

"The black and white paper is here, and I don't have a second one in my hand, can you say that you didn't write it?!" "Director" raised the proof in his hand and discerned it reasonably.

"I didn't write it at all! Not a word. Hao Fumao said, took it over again, and looked at it himself.

Immediately dumbfounded:

Isn't! The words in black and white are clear, the same as what the "director" just read.

Look at the handwriting again, which one did you write it yourself?!

"It's weird! I didn't write it like that, how did it come to this? Hao Fu stroked his forehead with his hand, looking embarrassed and puzzled.

"What about the handwriting, isn't it yours?"

When the basket Caiye heard that it was not written according to his own meaning, he was already angry and his chest was burning. But her brain turned quickly, and when she saw Hao Fumao arguing confidently, she thought about whether someone had replaced her. Forced to ask.

"The handwriting looks like mine." Hao Fumao replied awkwardly, and then patted his chest and said: "Speak with your conscience: I never wrote it." What I wrote is to the effect that two brothers are separated, and the two elders are in charge of the other. The eldest is in charge of his father, and the second is in charge of his mother. Each is responsible for food and daily life, and the elderly are sent to the end. ”

"How did this happen?!" Hao Lancheng slapped the table and glared angrily.

Hao Fumao knew that it was difficult to distinguish a hundred mouths, so he hammered the table with his hand, "coughed", and sat down on the chair behind him, unable to increase his dejected head.

Tian Qingqing saw that his actions had caused such embarrassment to the innocent third grandfather, and he blamed himself very much.

Thinking that they are neighbors to the east and west, and they are uncles and nephews, this misunderstanding is incomprehensible, and it will be difficult to get along in the future. After thinking about it, he went up to the table of the Eight Immortals, covered his hands with the space wall, picked up the brush on the table, and wrote on the white paper on the table in full view of everyone:

This is providential, and it has nothing to do with others. bullying the elderly, breaking blessings and longevity; Be kind to your parents and enjoy your family; The second son complied, and the blessing was long; There is a slight difference in the pool, and the family is ruined. ”

Then he used a brush to type a big "X" on the family separation list written by Hao Fumao, and then threw the brush and the family separation list on the table.

When everyone saw the brush standing up and writing on its own, they were already frightened and frightened. Seeing that such a text was written, one by one they were convinced that it was indeed the gods who made the will, and wherever they dared to slacken, they all knelt down nearby and kowtowed on the ground.

Hao Lancheng and Basket Caiye also kowtowed and prayed: "Grandpa Fairy forgives, the little one doesn't dare to divide the old man anymore." Let the elderly be together and share the blessings of their old age. ”

Everyone kowtowed, stood up and saw that there were three pieces of paper with different characters written on the table of the Eight Immortals: one was the "Book of Heaven" written just now; One is the certificate that the village chief reads; One is a family separation list written by Hao Fumao.

What stunned everyone again was: on the family separation list, there was a big "X".

"That's the one I wrote, look at it. Because it was written according to your will, it disobeyed the gods and was marked with a big X. It can be seen that I did not tell a lie just now, you have misunderstood me. ”

Hao Fumao hurriedly picked up the family separation sheet he had written, held it up and said to everyone, in order to clear his injustice.

"That's it, don't say anything." The village chief was shocked and said: "As the saying goes: 'Everything persuades people to stop hiding from ignorance, and there are gods in raising their heads'. All of us here tonight have blasphemed the gods. It is also deserved to be punished. In the future, we must be honest in our words and deeds, and the gods will forgive us. Hao Lancheng, Hao Lanshun, there is a book from heaven here, you can do it. ”

After the village chief finished speaking, he turned around and walked out the door.

When the others who came saw this, they also followed and walked out.

Hao Fumao saw that everyone was gone, and he also wanted to leave the place as soon as possible, so he said to Hao Fujian: "Second brother, it's not early, your family will discuss it...... I...... Went back. ”

"Third uncle, you sit for a while." Hao Lancheng got up and stopped Hao Fumao, who was about to turn around: "There are too many strange things tonight. You are the highest of your brother's Chinese Cheng dΓΉ, you have to explain to us, otherwise, you won't be able to sleep tonight. ”

Hao Fumao glanced at him and said in his heart: "Now you know that you can't sleep!" What did you do earlier? ”

In fact, Hao Fumao did not agree with such a family separation method. This afternoon, the second niece Hao Lanxin cried and found him, asking him to persuade Hao Lancheng to become a couple of two people and not to separate the two old men. He persuaded him, but to no avail.

He didn't want to come tonight, and he couldn't stand Hao Lancheng's hard pull. He often participates in such events, and almost all those who write family lists are written by him. Because of the situation, I had to come.

Things are going to be strange tonight. Especially that bowl of lo noodles with marinade, how can it fly well? It also floated steadily into the Dongli room. The bowl of noodles was clearly aimed at the second sister-in-law.

Everyone was stunned, and he was so scared that he couldn't do it. If it weren't for the crowd, he would have run out long ago.

Later, there was a matter of changing the content of the separation list that I wrote, and I felt that it was caused by an unfair separation, so I wanted to leave as much as possible.

But seeing that Hao Lancheng's attitude was very sincere, he felt that it was inappropriate. After all, it is an uncle and nephew, and there are no four fingers close to each other, so it is better to persuade or persuade and persuade and correct it. He didn't insist anymore and sat back on the chair he was sitting on.

Basket Caiye also made a thief and hurriedly stammered: "Yes, third uncle." The road you have traveled has been better than the bridges we have walked. I heard that when you were young, you often traveled from south to north and saw a lot. It is the most literate of the older generation. You are telling us the meaning of this 'book from heaven', and the village chief said that 'there are gods with three feet above your head', is it true? ”

Hao Fujian also saw tonight's problem and knew that there must be a "god" secretly helping. And the "Book from Heaven" has already been made clear. This kind of thing, in the family, is something that can be understood and unspeakable, and the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law have to ask, just to hear what others think about this matter. He said to his younger brother Hao Fumao:

"Third, if the children ask, you will tell them what you know (in fact, the real meaning is "pick what you can say") and solve the doubts in their hearts. ”

How could Hao Fumao not hear the meaning of the second brother's words? He lit a large front door cigarette, took two puffs, pondered for a while, and said slowly:

"Actually, I haven't been studying for a few years, and I can't make any big senses. Since you are willing to let me say it, I will tell you about it on a case-by-case basis.

"The eldest nephew and daughter-in-law asked the village director if it was true that 'there are gods with three feet above the head'? I can say this to you: This is an old saying in China. It has been around since ancient times.

"'Advise people to stop hiding everything, and there are gods in their heads', which can be understood as: don't think that you have done something unseemly, and you will pass the test without telling others. Three feet above everyone's head, there are gods watching you at all times. That's what we often say, 'People are doing, and the sky is watching.'" The meaning of this sentence is to warn us not to do bad things, or to do bad things in an attempt to get by. The gods are everywhere and all the time, you may be able to deceive people, but you can't deceive the gods, and sooner or later you will suffer a certain amount of retribution.

This sentence can also be extended as: 'Do not do bad things for people, but there are gods in the three feet of your head; Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, only to fight for early and late. ’

For this aspect, there is also a wise saying: good thoughts have just arisen, although the blessing has not come, the evil has been far away; Evil thoughts have just been born, although the disaster has not come, the blessing has gone away......" (to be continued) RS
