After listening to my words, Boss Yu nodded, knelt at the head of the bed and stopped paying attention to me.

I shrugged my shoulders helplessly, talking to the rich man, and I didn't know what was going on, so I felt a big heart.

Take a few deep breaths, turn around and walk out of the ward, find a porcelain basin and put it in front of the bed, burn the guide collar paper needs to involve all the relatives of the deceased, I asked Boss Yu to call those people in, according to the order, son, grandson, daughter-in-law, godson and goddaughter to burn.

Because it was in the hospital, I was afraid that burning the guide paper would cause disgust to the hospital, so I asked Yan Qiqi if there was a problem with burning the guide paper in the hospital.

He said that before coming to the hospital, he had already greeted the hospital and asked me to do it as a spiritual place, and even set off firecrackers in the hospital.

Listening to this, I sighed again, if you have money, you are very good, and you can do whatever you want. If you were an ordinary person, let alone set off firecrackers, I am afraid that you would be kicked out of the hospital by burning a guide paper.

When the guide collar paper was burned, many people came to the entrance of the hospital and watched outside, and Yan Qiqi wanted to close the door.

I said that if you can't close the door by burning the guide collar paper, it will offend the deceased and make the funeral not go well. He didn't say anything to me, took out his mobile phone and made a call, waited for five or six minutes, and more than 20 strong men came, drove the onlookers away, and then guarded the door.

To tell the truth, when I saw this scene, I was nervous, for fear that if I didn't do this funeral well, the lord would be disgusted, and these strong men would beat me up, and then carry me out and throw me out.

This society is very realistic, the poor are always three points shorter in front of the rich, and I was the psychology at that time.

After driving the onlookers away, I glanced at the deceased on the bed, with a sallow face and white lips, which belonged to the normal appearance of a dead person. I put my mind at ease and leaned against the wall to smoke a cigarette, I wanted to take advantage of this time to find some tools, but I was afraid that burning the guide paper would suddenly change, and this kind of thing was not easy to say, so I stayed in the room all the time.

Due to the large number of relatives of the deceased, it was about 7 o'clock in the evening, and the guide paper was not burned until 7 o'clock in the evening, and at 7 o'clock in winter, the sky was already dark, so I found a gong, a roll of earth red, three pillars of incense, and a kettle. (Earth Red: A type of firecracker that is louder and much better than ordinary firecrackers.) ）

After getting these things, I was about to talk to Boss Yu, he glanced at me, and said a little unhappily, "You just went to ask for water?" What is the difference between my million-dollar funeral expenses and those ordinary funerals? ”

I glanced at myself and realized that since it was a big funeral, I definitely couldn't be as casual as an ordinary funeral in terms of clothing. I smiled bitterly, walked out of the hospital, called Qing Xuanzi, and asked him to borrow the best Taoist outfit.

It is unlucky to find someone to borrow clothes in the New Year's month. However, I didn't know any other Taoist priests except Qingxuanzi, so I had to talk to him.

After hearing this, he told me to pay great attention to the funeral, not to miss any details, and not to say any more gossip, and asked me to rent a motorcycle to go to their village to get it.

I said hello to Boss Yu and rented a motorcycle to go to Qingxuanzi's village, which was only a mile away from Dongxing Town, and it took five minutes to reach Qingxuanzi's village.

There are a lot of things at the entrance of the village, not only funeral clothes, but also commonly used funeral tools.

Seeing this situation, I knew that Qing Xuanzi was taboo about the funeral in the first month, but he just put things at the entrance of the village, and no one came.

I called him to say thank you, then tied the things to the back of the motorcycle and headed straight to the hospital.

Back at the hospital, I changed into a Taoist costume, it is worth mentioning that this Taoist costume is not an ordinary Taoist costume, but a red and white robe with two golden dragons embroidered on the back, a white dragon embroidered on the front, loose sleeves, and all black below the waist.

After changing clothes, I found some white linen and said to Boss Yu: "The children and grandchildren will go to the river with me to ask for water, and you need to tie white linen on your head, and you can't let your black hair be exposed, otherwise it will be regarded as unfilial piety and will affect the water." ”

He asked me why.

I said, "The so-called invitation to water has two meanings in it, one is to lead the soul of the deceased to the dragon lord in the river to take a look, so that the dragon lord can protect the soul of the deceased, and the other is to use the filial piety of his descendants to impress the dragon lord, so that the dragon lord can give the 'purifying holy water' to wipe the body of the deceased, so as to have a good background in the next life." (There are many kinds of water invitations, and in Taoism, sacrifices such as asking for rain are also called asking for water.) The water here refers to a funeral ceremony, the land of the two lakes, this kind of ritual is very popular, until now almost all funerals will have this step, the specific process is similar, the degree of excitement depends on the economic ability of the host. ）

When he heard this, he took the white linen, tore a piece and wrapped it around his head, and then tore a piece for each of his children and wrapped it on his head.

"Little brother, I want to do my filial piety for my mother-in-law, can I go as a daughter-in-law?" Boss Yu's eldest wife walked up to me and asked softly.

I glanced at her, when the old man was dying, she was the saddest, I nodded, and said, "According to custom, the daughter-in-law of the deceased can go or not, since you ask for it, then go with us!" ”

As I spoke, I took out another piece of white linen, tore it for her, and said, "Wrap it on your head, and go to the river to ask for water later, you must be sincere." ”

She thanked me and stood beside Boss Yu, staring at the deceased on the hospital bed.

"Little pretty boy, our three sisters are going too!" Boss Yu's other three wives came over.

Now, I am a little embarrassed, in our rural area, as a daughter-in-law, I can only participate in the water invitation, and I can only do it alone. How can there be a reason for four, if you go to four, it will definitely attract strange things.

Immediately, I shook my head and said, "I can only let that aunt go, the three of you guarding the old man's body here are also filial piety, there is no need to follow to ask for water." ”

"Brother Yu, people are your daughter-in-law who is marrying home, and she is doing her mother-in-law's funeral, why can't they go! If outsiders see that the eldest sister is alone, they will think that the three of us are grandmothers! Among the three of them, the youngest woman said coquettishly while pulling Boss Yu's arm and shaking it.

The sound was so loud that I got goosebumps when I heard it. Sometimes I really don't know what those rich people think, life is just 1. 25 liters of that thing, looking for so many wives is not afraid of running out in advance1. 25 liters with Hades.

Boss Yu was shaken like this, his calm face eased, patted the woman's arm gently, and said, "Baby, you all go!" ”

After speaking, he turned to look at me and said, "Yaoyao is right, they are all the wives I am marrying, how can there be any reason for my mother-in-law's funeral and daughter-in-law not going, this matter is not negotiable, the four of them must go." ”
