Chapter 92: Small Actions
Sun Xizi has been said to be a person since he was a child, and some people say that he is almost forty years old, why is he still as thin as a monkey, because he has many eyes and can't get fat.
When he was young, Sun Xizi was so poor that he couldn't open the pot, and when he grew up, he wanted to make money. Now there are three brick houses and two garages in the village, and listening to his daughter-in-law showing off outside, the family's savings are more than 100,000.
This Sun Xizi doesn't have a good job, he is a cattle breeder, where did he get so much money? If this is an outsider, others will have to figure it out, but Sun Xizi is a person, everyone thinks it is normal. This guy is not an ordinary little pick, whoever borrows a farm tool from him, he has to ask for money.
This time, the old Jin family held a funeral, and it was Sun Xizi who found Wang Mazi, and Wang Mazi got a lot of gift money for Sun Xizi. When Wu Ming went back, he heard Wang Mazi say this, so he asked curiously: "Since Sun Xizi took the money from it, why did he say that the gift money was halved?" ”
"He wanted a fixed number, 200. Lao Jin's family gave me 1000, even if the gift money was halved, he still took 200, but I took 300. ”
Wu Ming heard this, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you are developed now, and you can earn more for a funeral than you can for selling two coffins." ”
"I'm not your grandfather, your grandfather is a living bodhisattva, I have to support my family and eat."
"What are you talking about, didn't my grandfather raise me?"
"That was your grandfather's foresight, he was afraid that after he died, no one would have these lonely ghosts in the village, so he accepted you as a successor."
Wu Ming smiled and didn't continue the topic. Back at the Jin family, Wu Ming and they were a little late, and when they saw Sun Xizi and Jin Kui's father talking in the house, they dragged Wang Mazi to the spirit shed quietly, although the spirit shed was watched, but it was still quite deserted, Wu Ming whispered a few words to Wang Mazi, Wang Mazi's face was ugly, he shook his head and said no, Wu Ming glared at him and said: "If you don't do it, then I won't do it, you can do it yourself." ”
Wang Mazi sighed when he heard this, and walked out silently.
Wu Ming came to the house at this time, and Sun Xizi and Jin Kui's father were still arguing about the Lin family's theft of the body. Wu Ming heard Sun Xizi and Jin Kui's father say: "This can't be like this, I took the body for no reason, and I have to make him compensate." ”
Jin Kui's father sighed and said helplessly: "Don't toss, Lao Lin is right, it's our family Jin Kui who is sorry for their family Lin Hao, if Jin Kui hadn't told Lin Hao to pry the store, Lin Hao wouldn't have gone to the labor camp, and he went down the wrong path with those who didn't care." ”
"You can't say that, our family Jin Kui also went in, why didn't he like Lin Hao."
"That's when I bought a car for Jin Kui, and he didn't have time to spare."
"Dad, you can't do this, my brother will settle the account, this compensation must be demanded, they are stealing corpses, desecrating corpses, when they get to the city, we sue him, he has to be sentenced to two or three years. Ask him for 20,000 yuan, which Jin Kui earned for you. ”
Wu Ming couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but interject: "If Lao Lin is sentenced to two years, you will have to be sentenced to one and a half years." Sun Xizi, you have spent all the money you earned, Jin Kui died, you asked Wang Mazi to preside over the funeral, and asked him for 200 yuan. Then I did it again at the funeral, and the rope that carried the coffin was so strong that it suddenly broke, and you made it. It was you who deliberately left Kim Kui's body to rest for a day. ”
"Nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense, Lao Lin said that he was able to take the corpse unknowingly because you gave them an internal response, and then Lao Lin gave you money."
Sun Xizi didn't expect that Wu Ming would know about this, he was a little stunned, and he was a little dumb all of a sudden. When Jin Kui's father saw it, he was so angry that his beard puffed out, and asked him to go out to get the rope to carry the coffin.
When the rope was taken back, there were really knife marks on the broken part.
"I didn't make it."
Sun Xizi was stupid, and hurriedly explained, as soon as the words came out, he was slapped by Jin Kui's father.
"Your brother is dead, you money-obsessed bastard, and you still use him to make money, be careful of your retribution."
Jin Kui's father was so angry that he smoked, and discussed it with his family, and Jin Kui was buried.
Just when Jin Kui's father was discussing with his family, Wu Ming watched Wang Mazi walk in, so he leaned over happily and asked in a low voice, "No one saw it." ”
"No, if we do such a immoral thing at a funeral, what will we do if we suffer retribution."
"There are so many retributions, with me, it's okay."
It turned out that what Wu Ming whispered to Wang Mazi just now was to ask Wang Mazi to find a knife and cut a few marks from the rope that carried the coffin.
How to speak for the deceased, in the past few months, Wu Ming has experienced so many lives and deaths, and he can be regarded as having some experience. Don't wait for the dead to tell you, the dead will never speak, if you feel they need help, just rack your brains and do it. This is done in the heavens, and they have to do something so that they can act in the sky.
The re-burial was presided over by Wu Ming, who took a wicker stick and beat it into the coffin three times. muttered in his mouth: "The living soul comes out, and the dead soul enters." ”
After doing this, put Jin Kui's body in it, and put the coffin in the coffin and bury it. Wu Ming smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, when the funeral is over, your brothers will come back to make a funeral, and there will be nothing left." ”
"Someone asked why the funeral?"
Wu Ming said: "It's just drinking and talking nonsense in the spirit shed." ”
When the coffin left, Wu Ming said to Jin Kui's father again: "When these brothers who carried the coffin came, did they give each of them two packs of cigarettes." ”
Jin Kui nodded, this is the rule of the village. Although the village is all about helping, at least you have to give people two packs of cigarettes.
Wu Ming said: "I am adding two packs to each person, because they carry it twice. ”
After the funeral was completed, Jin Kui's father gave Wang Mazi a thousand yuan, but Wang Mazi didn't dare to accept it, but Wu Ming said, "Take it." Wang Mazi was very happy, fold it, fold it, and stuff it into his inner pocket.
Wu Ming was ready to leave, and a woman wearing linen and filial piety found Wu Ming, who looked like a child with a ponytail. Wu Ming has seen her, she is the saddest person to cry at the funeral, and she is the new daughter-in-law that Jin Kui has just married for a year.
This new daughter-in-law's name is Ye Qing, eight years younger than Jin Kui, and she is only twenty-three this year. Ye Qing gave Wu Ming a package, saying that Jin Kui originally wanted to hand this over to the city police station, but he didn't expect to have a car accident when he went to the city.
"Why give it to me?" Wu Ming asked in confusion.
"I think our family Jin Kui didn't die in a car accident, I don't have any status as a woman in the family, I see that you are a good person, I want you to help me say something, I read the contents of this package, and I won't get it."
As soon as Wu Ming looked at the package, his brows locked together, and judging from the shape of the outside of the package, it was an urn inside.
