Chapter 308: The Death of a Pig and the Funeral
I couldn't rule out whether there was a problem with his cousin, so I asked, "What does your cousin do?" ”
Boss Shi snorted and said what could he do, didn't he just graduate from college and didn't find a job to stay at home, waiting for the second half of the autumn to be recruited as a soldier?
As soon as I heard it, it was only June: "Then your wife's cousin's house conditions should be good, and he can play at home for several months." ”
"Where!"
Boss Shi's face was full of disdain: "Their family is the same as mine, poor jingling." The last time his sister was sick, it was my mother-in-law who gave the money, and he is about to get married again in the second half of the year, I guess! You have to recruit our family. ”
"Fuck, my mother-in-law guards me like a thief, and she is generous to her nephew, so isn't it 350,000 yuan? Never seen it again. ”
"I originally thought that he would have to pry a lot of money from our house to get married in the second half of the year, but who knew that this kid came to me yesterday to buy pigs, saying that he wanted to support himself and raise pigs to sell money to get married. But why do you think he wandered around and went back, and he didn't buy the pig? Could it be that it is too hard to raise pigs, and you still want to rely on our family? ”
As soon as I heard Boss Shi's words, it was reasonable, but it was also a little strange.
Where is the reason why you swear to say what you want to do, the posture is all set, and then you go to dangle for a while and then retreat? There are ghosts, there are definitely ghosts.
Is it ......?
Thinking of this, I hurriedly asked Boss Shi, "What kind of clothes did your wife and cousin wear when they came here yesterday?" ”
"Clothes?"
Boss Shi was stunned for a moment: "I didn't pay much attention, does Master Xiao have anything to say?" ”
I said that I used to go to the countryside with the old man, and I heard the old man say that if a pig dies inexplicably in the process of feeding, then the owner can't eat the meat, even if he eats meat, then the soup of the meat and the water in the pot after cooking the meat can't be poured into the pig's rancid water, otherwise the other pigs will die if they eat it.
What's even more mysterious is that the owner of this house can't go to other people's houses in the near future.
Otherwise, wherever you go, the pig will surely die.
At that time, the old man was an old man, who said that the pig he had worked hard for more than half a year was gone, and the veterinarian also said that the pig was not sick at all, which was very strange.
The old man went to peel off the cocoon and found out that the old man had a distant cousin and nephew.
When this niece was young, her husband was crushed by a car and broke her leg, and the family couldn't afford it, so she had to do heavy work and carry things to make up for her husband's medical expenses during her pregnancy, but she was still a step late, and her husband's leg could only be amputated because he did not have timely surgery, and he became a one-legged lame child, making it difficult to make money.
Since then, her temperament has changed greatly, and she regards money as her life.
Not only did he drive a harvester to help people harvest wheat and rice in summer and autumn to make money, but he also raised dozens of pigs at home.
Later, for some reason, more than a dozen of those pigs died inexplicably.
It was also a veterinarian who said that there was no illness or disaster, and it was a pity to throw it away.
The niece cut up the dead pigs and smoked them into bacon, and when she couldn't finish eating them, she gave them to relatives and friends everywhere.
The old man also received two pieces of bacon.
At that time, it was summer, the rural vegetable shortage season, the old man suddenly got two pieces of meat and was very happy, and it was estimated that it was the pork of his nephew's family last year.
Who knew that the meat would be fine if it was eaten, but the two pigs that the old man had raised for more than half a year died violently for no reason.
The old man was heartbroken and asked the old man to investigate.
In the end, he learned that after he ate the boiled meat given by his niece, the leftover idea of cooking broth was poured into the pigweed for his own pigs, which caused the tragedy.
In general, once someone dies of a pig inexplicably, the family must not go to someone else's house in the short term, otherwise someone else's pig will die.
Boss Shi's wife's cousin came and the pig died, and his cousin specified that there was a problem.
"Fuck it!"
When Boss Shi heard this, he suddenly realized: "Master Xiao, I remembered when you said this, that kid came to me yesterday is really abnormal!" ”
"Usually that kid is arrogant and lascivious, but his poor jingle is always outside pretending to be a big money, and I don't know where to get a large bunch of car keys, hanging them around his waist and tinkling. I don't eat 100 yuan for food, and I don't wear clothes that are not brand goods. ”
"It's worse for you to ask him to wear some of our work clothes than to tell him to die."
Boss Shi said and pulled the smock on his body for ten yuan a piece: "Say that people are poor and have an endless appearance, and no one looks down on you if you wear it." But yesterday the boy came, and he was wearing the same wool blue cloth tunic that I had worn for forty or fifty years, the kind my parents wore when they got married when they were young. My dad wore it for decades, and then the cuffs wore out and he wore it directly to feed the pigs. ”
"That kid wore yesterday is the tunic suit that their father usually wears with bamboo and chopping pigweed!"
"That's a problem."
I thought for a moment: "You said that since he loves face so much, he is going out here with you, and it is impossible to wear tattered styles from decades ago." I think it may be that their pigs are dead, and they are wearing this clothes that usually feed pigs and hanging around here, and they want to kill a batch of pigs on your pig farm, and he wants to harm you. ”
Boss Shi was shocked and suspicious: "No... No, what did he do to me? I'm usually very nice to him, he goes to our store to get cigarettes, and I give an average of two dollars cheaper per box! Why did he harm me? ”
Xie Sifei couldn't listen to it anymore: "Call him here and ask?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Boss Shi suddenly realized, hurriedly took out his mobile phone and pressed it a few times, and instantly squeezed out a smiling face: "Hey! Cousin? Oh, my future brother-in-law! ”
"I'm looking for my cousin, please ask my cousin to come to our house today, I have a few good pigs here, doesn't he want to buy pigs? Tell him to come and have a look, plus his cousin bought a wild goat at the market yesterday and stewed some soup with matsutake and ginseng, why don't you come and drink it with your cousin!? ”
"What? Coming soon? Okay, good, waiting for you! ”
Boss Shi hung up the phone with a smile, and his face immediately sank.
After a while, a voice sounded outside the pig farm: "Cousin-in-law! Is my cousin-in-law here? It's me, Wu Guojun! Open the door! ”
The three of us looked at it, and we really saw a young man in a woolly blue tunic standing outside the door.
However, his yellow-haired old Gao really doesn't match the upright style of the tunic suit. But when I saw that Zhongshan was sickly, I knew that he didn't run.
Boss Shi also glared at him angrily.
Huang Mao didn't know it, and when he saw Boss Shi, his gums were exposed, and he looked flattering: "Hey, hey, hey!" Cousin-in-law, I'm coming! Open the door for me! ”
Boss Shi was immediately furious, and rushed out and punched him hard.
The force of this punch is not light, and the weak little yellow hair was lifted to the ground, and he didn't understand why for a long time, covering his face and being aggrieved like a shy little lady in a palace fighting drama: "Cousin-in-law, why are you beating someone?" ”
Boss Shi was even more angry, rushed up and picked him up from the ground, and greeted him again with a rain of slaps and fists: "I'll beat you?" I'm going to kill you! ”
"Cousin-in-law!"
Wu Guojun, who was skinny and chicken-like, had no power to fight back against Boss Shi, so he could only howl and cry: "Cousin-in-law! People say that if you catch a thief, you will get dirty, and if you catch a traitor, you will get a double! Everything has to have a reason, why do you hit someone for no reason? ”
"For no reason?!"
Boss Shi slapped him again: "Why did you beat you, don't you have a little score in your heart?" ”
Wu Guojun trembled: "No, really, no." ”
"I'm going to let you die today!"
Boss Shi slapped him again: "Lao Tzu asked you, is your pig dead?" ”
"How is that possible?"
Wu Guojun immediately denied it: "The pigs raised by my father are all alive and well in the pen, how can they die?" Besides, isn't it a big loss if the pig dies? Cousin-in-law, why are you cursing people? ”
Boss Shi raised his fist: "I won't curse people, but I will beat people." If you don't tell the truth, I'll beat you. ”
Wu Guojun cried with a sad face: "What I said is the truth!" ”
Boss Shi was not so easy to fool, and immediately said when he heard this: "Okay, then let me ask you, your father has a lot of pigs, since your pigs are not dead, what pigs do you buy from me?" ”
Wu Guojun's eyes rolled: "My dad said that the more pigs, the better, and besides, I won't get married soon, raise more pigs and sell more money in the second half of the year, so as to make up for the deficit in my marriage!" ”
"You're still quibbling!"
Boss Shi shook his mobile phone: "I just asked your village sister Rong on WeChat, your pigs died of illness last month, and the corpses were thrown in the ditch and no one cared about them, and the villagers in the rotten nearby paddy fields went to the village chief's house to complain, and you also quarreled with people complaining, saying that people and dogs take mice, is there such a thing?" ”
When Wu Guojun heard this, he couldn't help but mutter: "Is he nosy, the ditch is public, what is the pig throwing in the ditch to hinder them?" ”
Boss Shi raised his eyebrows and grabbed Wu Guojun: "You admit it!" ”
"When the pig died, you still wore the clothes that your father fed the pigs to hang here, what the hell are you doing?"
Wu Guojun trembled in the face of Boss Shi, for fear that the sandbag-sized fist would fall down again and again, and shouted again and again: "Don't, don't!" Cousin-in-law! You told me that it wasn't my intention, someone made me do it! ”
"Who!?"
Boss Shi scolded sharply: "If you don't give a fucking explanation today, I'll beat you to death!" ”
"I say I say!"
Wu Guojun was probably scared by Boss Shi: "It's my aunt!" My aunt made me do this! ”
When Xie Sifei and I heard this, we were both taken aback: Aunt Wu Guojun? Boss Shi's mother-in-law?
Boss Shi was also dumbfounded: "She... Why did she do it? ”
