430.Chapter 430 (55)
I nodded, smiled apologetically at the tall guy, and picked up the little girl's body from the side and placed it on the right side of the beggar.
Since the coffin was so small that it was impossible for the little girl to lie down, I had to take the beggar's right hand and put the little girl's head in her arms, so that the two of them would take on a motherly holding position.
After doing this, I asked Lao Wang if it was okay, he glanced into the coffin, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I have seen mother and son in the same coffin before, and it is almost the same!" ”
Hearing him say this, I put my mind at ease, and asked the senior guy to put the coffin lid up, the senior guy seemed to have some opinions just now, stunned for a while, and finally walked to the position of the coffin lid, and closed the coffin lid with several other eight immortals, leaving a small gap.
After they had finished the coffin lid, I asked Lao Wang if he needed to make an offering table in front of the female beggar. He thought for a moment and said: "It stands to reason that you can't get an offering table, otherwise it will be two funerals, so let's move Shen Jun's offering table to this one, it can be regarded as an explanation for the deceased."
As soon as the words fell, the little boss on the side came over and said thank you to Lao Wang.
I know what he means by thanking him, Lao Wang proposed to move the offering table somewhat, but in fact, he put the female beggar and Shen Jun together, so that this funeral can eliminate some of the sins of the female beggar in her life and make her have a better background in the next life.
Originally, I didn't agree with Lao Wang's approach, mainly because Yin Qi is more important and there can be no deviation. However, Lao Wang said, although Yin Qi is important, let me not forget how the female beggar died.
When he said this, I suddenly remembered that the female beggar had drowned, and that the evil spirit was also heavier.
Thinking of this, I didn't say a word, but immediately moved the offering table, burned some yellow paper, and inserted a pair of candles at the front and back ends of the coffin.
After doing this, I was afraid that I would not be able to suppress the evil spirit of the female beggar, so I asked the Wu butcher for a small pig-killing knife, Made, the Wu butcher is also a ruthless master, and a pig-killing knife was stunned and asked me for 200 yuan.
I asked the senior to remove the lid of the coffin a little bit and place the pig-killing knife on the female beggar's chest.
As soon as I did this, Lao Wang frowned and asked me: "Nine Guys, it's not good to put a pig-killing knife!" It will hurt the soul of the deceased. ”
I shook my head and said helplessly: "In any case, this funeral is mainly based on Shen Jun, even if the female beggar is angry, it can't change this fact, and putting a pig-killing knife can temporarily calm the evil spirit, and when the coffin is sealed, it shouldn't be a big problem to take it out again." ”
"Are you sure?" The little boss leaned over and asked.
I nodded and said uncertainly, "Should... It should be a question, after all, the main and secondary aspects of the funeral are clear. ”
After speaking, I remembered about the tomb, so I asked the eight immortals who were digging the tomb if they came, and he said that those eight immortals could come over in the afternoon.
Subsequently, a few of us discussed the funeral again, it was all trivial, about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and the sister-in-law shouted at the door, 'It's time to eat'.
"Chen Baxian, Uncle Wang, Uncle Gao, Miss Wen, the four of you go to dinner, I am guarding the hall here so as not to let the corpses of my uncle's family 'cold'." The little boss glanced towards the door and said.
To tell the truth, I have always been a little wary of the little boss, and I don't worry about him staying in the hall, mainly because I am afraid that he will do something on the coffin, so I shook my head and said, "No need, you go out to eat with Lao Wang and them, and I can stay in the hall." ”
"Chen Baxian, you still don't believe me?" The little boss's face changed, and he said in a deep voice.
I didn't answer his question, so I gave Lao Wang a look at them, meaning that they were going to eat.
Seeing that I ignored him, the little boss smiled bitterly, stood up and walked out immediately, and as he passed me, he paused and whispered a word.
I had some hearing problems, and I couldn't hear very clearly, so I asked Lao Wang, what did the little boss say. Lao Wang told me that the little boss said a name, Cheng Xiaocheng.
Hearing these three words, I was stunned, the little boss only studied in high school for a week, and he didn't know Cheng Xiaocheng at all, and more importantly, I never mentioned Cheng Xiaocheng to him, how did he know?
Thinking of this, I walked over with an arrow step, grabbed him by the collar, and said angrily: "How do you know Cheng Xiaocheng?" ”
He smiled, didn't speak, and walked towards the door.
"Say, how do you know Cheng Xiaocheng?" I'm a little anxious, Cheng Xiaocheng has always been a piece of meat in my heart, and I can't tolerate her being wronged.
He still didn't speak, just glanced at me, and was about to go again. At this moment, I was completely anxious, and when I raised my hand, I smashed it with a punch, which happened to hit him in the face, and in an instant, some blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Chen Jiu, you disappointed me so much!" He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, dropped such a sentence, and left.
I was stunned, what did he mean by this? I was about to pull him, Lao Wang and Gao Lao came over, one person and one hand on my left and right shoulders, Lao Wang said: "Jiu Yanzi, you are too much, the little boss is also the master's family, you beat the master's family like this, it is against the professional ethics of the eight immortals." ”
"Yes, personal grievances should not be resolved in funerals." The tall guy chimed in.
Hearing them say this, I pinched my thigh, the severe pain made me calm down a little, and I exhaled a few times, thinking in my heart, did something happen to Cheng Xiaocheng in Tibet?
I don't know what's going on, the more I think about Cheng Xiaocheng, the more irritable I feel in my heart, and at this moment, the sister-in-law at the door shouted again, "The people in the hall are cooking!" ”
"Jiu Yanzi, you go to dinner with Gao Lao and Miss Wen first, I am here to guard, remember, this is a funeral, don't have any conflict with the Lord, otherwise it will be a big taboo, remember, remember." Wang patted me heavily on the shoulder.
I resisted the irritability in my heart, nodded, and walked out, as soon as I went out of the door, I saw three Eight Immortal Tables on the Pingdi, and the Eight Immortal Tables on the left and right sides were full of people, all of them were those women from Walker Village, and there were five Eight Immortals sitting at the table in the middle, which were thin monkeys.
I looked for the little boss in the crowd, and to my disappointment, he wasn't there.
"Chen Baxian, Gao Lao, here." The skinny monkey at the middle table shouted at us.
I hummed, and walked towards the eight immortal table in the middle, the dishes were not bad, stewed chicken, braised pork, cold fungus, steamed fish and our famous dish in Hengyang, white tofu boiled fish mouth, and a bottle of Sprite, Huiyanfeng liquor, and beer were placed in the middle.
really responded to the ancient poem, Mo laughed at the farmer's wine, and the guests were full of chickens and dolphins in the harvest year.
"Sit here!" The skinny monkey moved the stool out of the way and let me sit in the upper seat.
I took a look, we are very particular about eating here, only the elders can sit on the upper seat, these eight immortals present, I belong to the youngest, how dare I sit on the upper seat, so I pulled the tall guy over, and I sat down on the right side.
To be honest, in the face of this table full of dishes, I don't have much appetite, and I have been thinking about Cheng Xiaocheng in my heart.
Just when I was stunned, Wen Xue sat down next to me and asked in a low voice, "Is Cheng Xiaocheng your little lover?" ”
I glared at her, ignored her, stood up and took the liquor, got up, poured some liquor for the senior guys, and poured myself a full amount of liquor, planning to borrow wine to relieve my sorrows.
"Chen Baxian, you can't drink enough, drink less, the funeral will start tomorrow, you can't have an accident, besides, you still have injuries on your body." The tall guy took my bowl, put his bowl in front of me, thought for a moment, poured out some liquor, and said, "You can drink a little!" ”
Seeing his movements, my heart warmed, I don't have many friends, and I don't know many people, but these eight immortals take good care of me, just like relatives.
I nodded, and suddenly remembered that Qing Xuanzi and Stuttering were still tinkering with the culvert by the river, so I asked the thin monkey, "Did someone send the food for Qing Xuanzi and Stammer?" ”
"Oops!" The skinny monkey patted himself on the head and said, "Forget about the two of them, I'll go and bring them food!" ”
At this moment, there was a hearty laughter behind him, "Xiao Jiu, you kid still have a bit of a conscience, and you know that Xiaodao is hungry." ”
Hearing this, I turned my head to see that Qing Xuanzi was standing behind me, he looked a little tired, his robe was stained with a lot of mud, and he stammered and stood next to him and called out to me Ninth Brother.
I hurriedly stood up, asked Qing Xuanzi to sit down, and asked him, "The culvert matter is solved?" ”
