Chapter Seventy-Six: Buying a Coffin

The dawn in Shayu County is particularly early, and the morning sun shines warmly on the ground. The bustling flow of people on the streets of East Street, the sound of hawkers, cars and horses, the sound of footsteps coming and going, and the sound of talking, drive the whole street to be lively.

In the room of the inn, a little girl with a delicate face and a thin body slowly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw unfamiliar furnishings and unfamiliar rooms, and she immediately became vigilant. Mother, didn't I stay by my mother's side before? How can you suddenly wake up in this place? She thought to herself, I won't just get out of the tiger's den and fall into the wolf's den, right?

She looked around her, and there was no one! It's better to go first. She wanted to run, but as soon as she ran to the door, she almost pretended to be full of Ziling who passed by outside the door.

"Ah, how reckless you kid!" Ziling screamed in fright at the sudden situation.

Qing Xing was stunned for a moment, and after a second, she ran out sideways from Ziling's side.

"Hey, you're back!" Isn't this Yuzhi's daughter? Ziling looked at the little girl's back and shouted anxiously.

Mo Ran heard the shouting and hurriedly walked out of the door to intercept her. Mo Ran moved and came to Qingxing.

"Do you remember me? Where are you going? ”

"Sister, it's you, I thought I was sold, that's why I ran away. I, my mother is gone, I-I-want to go home and do my mother's funeral. Qing Xing went from choking to crying.

"It's okay to do things later, you have to remember, you said you wanted to pay me back before. Be a man of your word. ”

"Hmm. I will definitely repay my sister's money, make cattle and horses for my sister, and repay my sister's great kindness for slaves and maids. Qingxing wanted to leave after speaking.

"Do you have the money for the funeral?" Mora grabbed her.

"Nope." Qingxing lowered her head and wrung her fingers, and whispered.

"Oh, take it. Give you a day for the funeral and come back to me before dark. ”

Mo Ran took out a silver ingot from his arms and stuffed it into Qing Xing's hand. The tears in Qing Xing's eyes were like beads with broken threads, constantly falling down.

Qingxing suddenly knelt down and kowtowed heavily to Mo Ran, unable to speak emotionally. After knocking and leaving in a hurry.

Mo Ran said to the air in front of him, "Why don't you go and have a look?" ”

From the inside out, there seemed to be a cold wind blowing past the people, making everyone shiver in the daytime.

Mo Ran came to the room of Xiaoxin and the others.

"Godmother, who was the little girl just now?"

"Well, it's just a debt to me now, but now it's our new member. Xiaoxin, do you lack a maid? ”

"There is no shortage of godmothers, I can take care of myself and don't need others to take care of me."

"Xiaoxin, although you have never told me about your life experience. However, godmothers can see some things that others can't. For example, the trace of purple qi that shines from your body. Xiaoxin, purple is precious, which means that your identity must be either rich or expensive. In these days in the desert, you have to be alone in everything, and it really hurts you. Therefore, the godmother wants to find you a maid and a companion. Anyone will have some secrets in their hearts, about your life experience, if you don't tell me, I won't ask, and when you want to tell me, I will naturally know. ”

"Thank you godmother for your understanding, I will tell my godmother in the future. Now everything is subject to the arrangement of the godmother. ”

"Mother, you are eccentric. Yun'er also has an unusual identity, and she is either rich or expensive. Why don't you let that young lady be Yun'er's maid. Yun'er pouted.

"Yun'er, you want a maid, have you asked a few sisters behind you?" Mo Ran squatted down on one knee, put one hand on Yun'er's shoulder, raised her eyebrows, and gestured to Yun'er with her eyes.

The four girls behind Yun'er all looked at it with blazing eyes, and Yun'er only felt a chill behind her.

"Okay, Yun'er was just joking, when I didn't say it." Yun'er put on a smiling face, but the smile was more ugly than crying.

The end of West Street in Shayu County.

In front of Qingxing is the last shop at the end of West Street in Shayu County, and the moss and cobwebs on the walls at the end of the street show that there are few people here, and it is very desolate. Usually people who pass by here will avoid it from a distance, for fear of being contaminated with bad luck.

At the entrance of the store, where the plaque should have been placed, a black coffin cover was hung, on which were written with white paint the eye-catching words "Liang Ji Coffin Shop". In the shop, large and small coffins are placed in an orderly manner. Some coffins resemble matryoshka dolls, stacked in sizes from large to small, saving space. There is also a kind of gift. Placed on a shelf, exquisitely unusual. Some people can't figure out that there are still coffins used as gifts? You don't know that. As the saying goes, promotion and fortune, take the homonym, send a small coffin to others, and hang it in a high place, implying promotion and wealth. However, seeing these large and small coffins put together, normal people will feel creepy.

"Uncle, I want a good coffin." Qingxing walked into the coffin shop with heavy steps, and said to an uncle in the coffin shop with red eyes.

"There are good coffins, willow, pine, and cypress, but I don't know if you have money, little girl?" The shopkeeper of the coffin shop looked up at Qingxing with a dry cigarette in his mouth, and then lowered his head and went to work.

"Yes. But uncle, don't you say how do I know if it's enough? ”

"Hey, this girl. I have a good willow coffin here, and it costs three taels of silver. Do you want it? "It's as if there's money to buy it.

"Yes! I want it now, can you find a few people to help me bury me? Qingxing took out the silver ingot (ten taels) that Mo Ran gave her and handed it to the uncle who was working.

Yo, I can't see it, this girl is dressed in tatters, she is so rich, the real person doesn't show her face, she looks away.

"Little girl, you are really lucky, this good willow coffin was originally prepared by Wu Yuanwai in the county for his seriously ill father, who knew that his father's illness suddenly improved two days ago, and he didn't need it anymore, so you can buy this coffin. It's not expensive to charge you three or two, if you don't believe it, you can ask around if it's this price.

Generally, we don't cover the burial or something, and you come by yourself, and there is no adult to accompany you, which is quite pitiful. Otherwise, the coffin and the burial coffin will charge you a total of four taels, and I will definitely find someone to help you do the scenery, what do you think? After receiving such a large ingot of silver, the boss changed his previous careless attitude, and immediately put on an honest and reliable look, and quickly found money for Qingxing. It's true that money can make ghosts push ghosts, no, maybe it's money that can make ghosts push ghosts.

"Well, there's Uncle Lao." Qingxing silently shed tears and took the silver recovered by the boss.

"Little girl, where is your home? You leave an address, and I'll ask two guys to carry the coffin for you. After that, I'll help you find someone to take care of the shroud paper money and other trivial matters, and then go to your house, and the address of the burial is you choose? Or by the way, I'll help you find someone to see? ”
