Chapter 51: The Dead Man's Business

Yan Hong's introduction of his daughter and son-in-law is puzzling. His words are short and may not be clear. Ji Conan wanted to find out more, so as not to regret it.

Ji Conan asked: "What is the dead man's business you are talking about?" ”

"That is, if someone dies in a family and needs to do a funeral, invite my son-in-law to go." Yan Hong said.

The old man didn't make it clear. Our eldest daughter and son-in-law were selling wreaths and papyrus, and our son-in-law sang and danced and was often invited out to sing and dance. A woman suddenly interjected, this woman is Yan Hong's wife, and she is Yan Hong's family.

Ji Conan listened to it and understood what they were doing, a bit similar to the funerals in the Han area, the customs are similar, but the content is different. He didn't ask any further, but probably understood what he meant.

"Isn't that an industry that never loses its job?" Shen Jing asked. Shen Jing said this to mean that someone will always die. Death is like a burning candle, and death is like a lamp going out. Generally speaking, gritting your teeth in a coffin shop is about hating people and not dying. Nowadays, people are afraid of death, because they don't know anything about death, and if they know the truth about death, they won't worry.

"That's, it's definitely not going to be unemployed. To ensure the harvest in drought and flood, he can really do it. Men are afraid of choosing the wrong line, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. It seems that you have cultivated a good daughter, chosen the right son-in-law, and added glory to your family. Going out is also a well-known figure, no worse than others. Ji Conan added.

"And what is your little son doing?" Shen Jing asked.

"After graduating from college, my youngest son worked in a small town pharmaceutical factory. He loves to read, has no bad hobbies, and studies when he has nothing to do. In his spare time, he likes to delve into problems. Always reading books all day long, doing questions, reading books, doing questions, rarely playing, people worry about whether they are nerds, who sees everyone and says, afraid that reading will become a pedantic. We heard the rumors outside, and we were also worried, and we also advised our son to read less, but he didn't listen, he always loved to learn, and we saw that the books were all big, but he didn't, he liked words, liked books, this is really not hereditary. He was later admitted to graduate school. After graduation, he worked in a Sanjiu pharmaceutical factory. Yan Hongjia said.

"What about your eldest son? Surely it is also excellent, right? Ji Conan asked.

"He works at the Yiling Veterinary Station and is a veterinarian." Yan Hong said.

"Okay, your two sons are promising. I know that veterinarians are very popular in rural areas, and every family in rural areas is engaged in breeding, and there must be health problems in the breeding process. This is inevitable. If you are sick, you have to be treated, if you don't treat it, let the pig and the cow die of illness, and I can't bear it. Ask a veterinarian for sure. If you hire a veterinarian, you have to spend money, which is not negotiable. Money must be paid to make it possible for the livestock to heal and not suffer economic losses. Togo said.

"Well, they didn't make a mess for us. If you don't make trouble, you're a good son. Now raising a son is the same as raising an enemy. Some people say that raising a son is raising a creditor. This debt will never be known. It is difficult for a clean official to decide family affairs, and this may be the case. The son asked Lao Tzu for money, it was justified, there was nothing to say, just give it. Our sons were too embarrassed to ask for money, but always asked us if we were short of money to spend. This is really strange, it completely changed the style, I was not like this when I was a child, I always liked to ask my father for money. Yan Hong said.

"And where's your little daughter?" Shen Jing asked.

"Studying in Kyoto. This girl doesn't apply grease and powder, how did she do it? Dressed a little old-fashioned, we can't get used to it, persuade her to buy some beautiful clothes, she doesn't, a little money, just spend on studying, buy books spend the most money. There is no way, if you don't listen to the persuasion, you won't say anything, and you will be quiet. It's better to have more than less. Yan Hongjia said.

Ji Conan thought to himself, this is a relatively good family. The four children basically have a good life, compared to the people in the same village, it is considered a prosperous family, this is the benefit of the family style, the family style is good, the children grow up smoothly, completely beyond the range of parents' expectations, to parents unexpected surprises, and surprises constantly, which is amazing.

After chatting for a while, they got up and took their leave, and returned to their lodgings. Shen Jing came today, mainly to help Ji Conan and Togo, not to live. The purpose of giving her room was to hold some hygiene training activities here in the future, so that she could first identify which direction the door was opening.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, Shen Jing was leaving. Ji Conan didn't want to go back to the county seat, so he said to Togo: "Togo, I don't want to go back to the county seat today." Will you go back? ”

"I can't go back, I am needed here. Yan Bo is installing water pipes there, and when the cement comes, construction will begin. I couldn't pull away. Togo said to him very seriously.

"Brother Ji, I have hands and feet, I can do it myself, women don't let me have eyebrows, don't look down on women, we women are worth half the sky, I don't need you to accompany me, I'll go back by myself." Anyway, I'm in charge of Hecun alone. Shen Jing was a little unhappy, and she said to them angrily that it was actually aimed at Ji Conan. Ji Conan didn't care, pretending not to hear.

Ji Conan thought to himself, he only came back yesterday, and he came back today, and most of the time for this work was on the road, and there was very little time to really work in the village. I can't help it. The project points are too scattered, and the Yangtze River is separated by the Yangtze River on the north and south sides, after all, it is not as convenient as being on one side.

But this choice is not something he can decide, he can only obey. Now that Shen Jing wants to go back, why not accompany her back? Do good deeds to the end, otherwise you have done a thousand good deeds, and because you have not done one good deed, you have erased all the good deeds you have done before, and you will become a sinner for eternity. No wonder Confucius said that only villains and women are the most difficult to raise, not without a little reason, nor is it sexist, but it is a real thing.

Thinking about it, I felt extremely frightened, this person is not a fuel-efficient lamp, there is really no way, Ji Conan had to go back to the small city with Shen Jing.

Returning to the county seat and going ashore, Ji Conan paid special attention to the wreath shop, but still didn't see it, maybe the speed was too fast, or the faΓ§ade was not big, the signboard was too small, and he always flashed by, but he didn't see anything.

In the evening, Shen Jing took the initiative to cook. She made some rice wine, and then baked pancakes, and ate well in the evening, which was very comfortable. When I drank the wine, I was a little drunk. Recently, I have been too nervous at work, but after drinking, the pressure has been reduced a lot. Ji Conan went to take a bath first, not wanting to be humble until the last wash. After washing, he came out and said to Shen Jing, "I'm sorry, I'll wash first." I'm going to sleep, good night! ”

"Good night!" Shen Jing also said these two words to Ji Conan.

Then, Ji Conan went to bed.

I was just about to lie down when I received a call from Miss Liu, the person in charge of the unit. She first asked about the progress of the project, and he made a brief report, and then said to him: "You have worked hard! Organize the work of the recent period, write it well, print it, and mail it to Jiangcheng City. ”

"Okay, I'll send out the report tomorrow." Ji Conan said, then closed the phone, collapsed and fell asleep.

In the morning, a ray of sunlight illuminated the room, Ji Conan woke up and saw Shen Jing staring at him, he asked her, "What are you doing?" ”

Shen Jing said: "Seeing that you slept so sweetly, the snoring shook the sky, I thought it was a pigsty." ”

When Ji Conan heard this, he was not angry with Shen Jing, and knew in his heart that Shen Jing loved to be poor, so he forgave her. However, if you want to have a further relationship with Shen Jing, I'm afraid you can't. Men and women are not kissed, these are not explained, and they are not clear, so don't think about it too much, divert your attention, it's nothing, as long as you don't cross the thunder pool, the moral court is judged, and you don't have bad intentions in your heart, and you can get along in harmony.

Breakfast was eaten outside, and Shen Jing paid the bill.

Just after breakfast, Lao Tan of the branch called Ji Conan and asked, "How is the progress of the Hecun project?" ”

Ji Conan said: "I haven't gone yet." In the past two days, I have been busy settling down in Ping Village. I planned to go to Hecun today to have a look, but I didn't expect Miss Liu to call to urge the project progress report, and I will send the report out today. ”

Lao Tan understood and pressed the phone in the office.

Ji Conan and Shen Jing found a typing and copying shop, and he dictated it, asked the typist to type out the report, and then asked Shen Jing to proofread it, and in less than an hour, it was all done, and after printing, Shen Jing paid the printing fee, asked for a receipt, and then went to the post office to mail the project work report.

Shen Jing saw Ji Conan's talent and admired it very much, and said, "You can really do it, you don't need to make a draft of the oral report." ”

"The report is very simple, what you do, just record it truthfully, in fact, you have already prepared a draft, but it is just an oral description of your own experience, and there is nothing to admire." Ji Conan said.

"How do you remember that clearly?"

"This is not difficult, we have a workbook, often record daily things, it is not easy to forget, when there is nothing to look at, you will know how to summarize, write a report."

Shen Jing was still skeptical.

Ji Conan paused and said, "You will write the next report, okay?" ”

"Not good. I can't write well. It's better for you to write, it's fast, it's good. Shen Jing said.

"I used to work in a law firm, and I used to help people write, which may be a bit basic, so writing is not very difficult." Ji Conan said.

"No wonder, this one, it's still a little credible." Shen Jing said as if relieved.

After arriving at the post office, Shen Jing bought a registered letter envelope and put the report in it. But when writing the zip code and address, he got stuck, and hurriedly sent a text message to Feng Feifei's fat girl. After about half an hour, Feng Pang Nizi replied, she said: "I was in class and did not reply to the text message in time. ”

Then she sent the zip code and address to Ji Conan's mobile phone. Ji Conan was puzzled, how could it be? It's Sunday. How can you work so hard that you don't even rest on your days off. Is it really that busy? Maybe it's putting on a show again, right?

Ji Conan didn't dare to think about it, so he wrote the zip code and address on the envelope. Then let Shen Jing paste the stamp and hand it to the staff sitting inside. The staff indifferently took the envelope, weighed it on the electronic scale, and said, "It's not enough, I have to add eight yuan." ”

"Didn't you just weigh enough?" Shen Jing asked.

The staff said impatiently: "Just now, now is now." To send or not to send? ”

Shen Jing still wanted to argue.

Ji Conan said to Shen Jing: "Forget it, give her another eight cents, it's not out of her own, the agency will reimburse her." ”

"Even if it is reimbursed, you have to fight for it, so that they don't hurt others in the future." Shen Jing said.

Ji Conan said to the staff: "Please help send it." As he spoke, he took out ten yuan and gave it to the staff, and the one inside gave Ji Conan two yuan.

It's over. Coming out of the post office, Ji Conan said to Shen Jing: "Obviously, I weighed it just now, and the stamps have been pasted enough, but the problem is just now, it may be that the paste has wet the envelope and increased the weight." If she wants to, she will give it to her, there is no reason to talk about it. This is an industry monopoly, and there is no way to do it. Who said there is no private courier business here? Forget it, bear with me, otherwise, this report will not be sent. ”

"A small county town is a small county town. Enterprise monopoly, overlord clauses, domineering, let those express companies and logistics companies clean them up! Shen Jing said indignantly.

"Just know. No one can help it. As long as we can complete the tasks assigned to us by the agency, why bother with her too seriously? Ji Conan said.

They said this as they walked back. Summer is coming, the leaves are very thick, the river is yellow, the water is very fast, if it is not for the Three Gorges to intercept the Yangtze River, this section of the water is even more surging. The unknown bird jumped deftly on the branches, and sang some beautiful and melodious songs, but humans could not understand them.

The small city is located in the canyon, which is relatively closed, except for the heat by the Yangtze River that is carried away by the flowing water, most of the heat is in the canyon. Therefore, the small town and county town are relatively hot and humid.

Ji Conan and Shen Jing wore summer clothes, Shen Jing's lines looked extraordinarily smooth, Ji Conan saw it, it was not normal not to be tempted, but considering many factors, he didn't dare to make a mistake. Men chase women, mountains across the mountain, women chase men, interlayer yarn, the current situation is that Shen Jing is chasing Ji Conan, so as long as Ji Conan relaxes his mouth, or relaxes his requirements for himself, Shen Jing will be easy to succeed. But Ji Conan was reluctant to do so.

In the evening, after dinner and taking a bath, Ji Conan was about to sleep, and Shen Jing asked: "How many villages are written in this work report?" ”

"Wrote two villages."

"Which two?"

"Hecun and Pingcun."

"Why didn't you write about Izumi Village?"

"The project of Baiquan Village is to make a water cellar, and the contract for the water cellar puzzle has not been signed, so it is difficult to write. I'll write it in the next report. ”

"Does the person in charge of the unit have any opinions?" Shen Jing continued to ask.

"There should be no opinion, go to sleep, it's not early." Ji Conan said.

"It's too early to sleep." Shen Jing said.

Ji Conan closed the door and slept. Though man lies down, his heart is restless. He thought, anyway, he wouldn't have anything to do with Shen Jing, it was hot, so he just opened the door and slept.

He thought, he didn't turn on the light, Shen Jing couldn't see anything clearly, opened the door and slept, it was much cooler. So, he tiptoed up, opened the bedroom door, and went back to bed.
