The old man didn't care about competing with the old peasants. He looked at the old woman in surprise: "What are you doing here?" What does that mean? ”

The old woman smiled and said, "The time for you to die is also continuous." I've lived enough. Isn't it? Die in one's bed. But I'm not going to make a big fuss like you. I was quiet when I was alive, and I was quiet when I died. ”

Then, she dragged the old man: "Okay." Stop worrying about these kids. We're both dead. It's time to go to the underworld, and it has nothing to do with the world. ”

The old man sighed a little: "If you die, I will die too." We're both dead. ”

The old woman said, "Yes, we are all dead. Stop losing your temper, let the jokes end, let the ghosts continue to laugh. ”

Then, in our astonishment, the old lady had gone ∵ to the door, and she whispered, "Leave you neighbors behind." Bury the two of us. There's a little money in the drawer, and it's a little bit of your pay. We have no children, no daughters, and we don't have to inform anyone. ”

Then, the two men walked out of the alley and disappeared.

We were stunned for a moment, and then we carried the old woman into the coffin.

The elder brother searched in the drawer, and sure enough, there were several hundred dollars.

Wushuang said suspiciously: "When we first came in, the old woman's yang energy was still very strong, and it didn't look like she was going to die. Moreover, the living life is dying, shouldn't it be a mistake to hook the soul? Why didn't you see it just now? ”

I said, "Just now, it seems that she doesn't want to live anymore. She's so old, and her body is not good after all. You just said that she is yang, but it is just compared to other old people. Such an old man, once he has the idea of death, I am afraid that he will die very easily. ”

Wushuang still didn't understand: "Why did she die?" Is it just to persuade this old man? ”

I nodded, "Seems to be." Hey, these two people have a really good relationship. Look at the two of them, both dead together. ”

The old farmer put the cigarette butt on the ground and extinguished it. He laughed: "Good feelings? Not necessarily. Stranger, you don't understand this. ”

Then he hurried to his house.

When we returned to the old farmer's house, we were just in time for him to run out with his son in his arms. He showed us the child: "Masters, what's the matter with my son?" Why hasn't he woken up yet? Isn't the old man gone? ”

I reassured him, "Don't worry. Your son was once ghosted. The child is young and has weak yang energy. Being eroded by the ghost qi like this, it is inevitable that it will be a little unbearable. I drew a talisman for him, pillowed it under his pillow, and raised it for two days. ”

The old farmer looked at the senior brother and pointed at me and said, "He is also a Taoist priest?" ”

Senior Brother looked at my peachwood sword, nodded and said, "Very powerful Taoist." ”

The next morning, the child woke up. The old farmer thanked us for his kindness and kindly invited us to stay in his house for a few more days.

Wushuang and I planned to wait for the fat man to come back, so we gladly agreed.

At noon, the neighbors helped bury the old woman and the old man.

It can be seen that everyone is very dedicated to their funeral. It looks like the dead are the greatest.

Wushuang and I watched for a while and found a very interesting phenomenon. The wreaths sent by these neighbors were all for the old lady, and the paper money that was burned was also burned while chanting: "The old lady is going well." "How, how.

I asked the old farmer, "It seems that everyone hates this old man, but they like this old woman very much." ”

The old peasant smoked a cigarette and said, "The old man is really annoying, it's nothing. However, everyone can't say that they like this old woman, at most they pity her. ”

I asked curiously, "Pity her?" Why pity her? ”

The old peasant didn't say it directly, but she sold it, and she asked me: "Last night, when you listened to the old lady, what kind of person did you think she was?" ”

I thought for a moment and said, "This old woman is quite reasonable. And when it comes to reasoning, the head is the ......"

The old farmer nodded and said, "The old lady is from out of town. It seems that everyone in the city is beautiful, and when they were young, they went to school and studied, and Confucius and Mencius could read it. Some people say that she can even speak foreign languages. However, no one has ever seen her say it. Not only has no one seen her say it, but even Chinese characters are rarely seen written by her. When she first came to the village, she was seen reading, and later she burned it. ”

I looked at the two grave bags that were gradually piling up, and asked curiously, "This old lady sounds quite legendary." ”

The old farmer sighed, rolled up another cigarette, and said, "What is there to be a legend?" Actually, two or three sentences are over. Didn't the old woman say it? It was the daughter of a rich family in the city, and then we had a war, and the whole family was killed. The old man went to the city when he was young, and the young man, who was strong in blood, couldn't look past it, and risked his life to save her, and from then on, the old woman followed him with all her heart. ”

I praised: "Heroes save beauty? That's pretty good. ”

The old farmer smiled and said, "What's good, you young people just don't understand." The old woman found out after she got married. The old man couldn't read a single word. And the temper is very stinky, when a sentence is not right, it will scold people at the lightest, and it will be done at the worst. ”

I couldn't help but be speechless: "Beat your wife? ”

The old farmer nodded: "This kind of thing, I can't stand it on any woman." What's more, the people are from the city. At that time, the neighbors all watched the excitement and made bets, and some people said that the woman would have to leave in three days. Some said, "In five days...... As a result, after more than ten years, the two of them did nothing, and they did not hear their family quarrel again. ”

"To be exact, since the day the old lady burned the book, I have not heard a quarrel between their family. At first, everyone thought that the woman from the city was very capable, and finally subdued this violent temper. Later, when I got in touch with more, I realized that it was all like that. This woman is smart, she knows what to say that men are happy and what men are unhappy about. Therefore, he never spoke out of sincerity, just to make the family peaceful and not let the neighbors see the jokes. ”

Wushuang said bluntly: "Then how uncomfortable is she?" Why didn't she get divorced? ”

The old farmer lit a cigarette and said, "Everyone also wonders, why didn't she get a divorce?" Later, everyone guessed, maybe, this old woman felt that this man saved her life back then, and she should repay her kindness. That's why I've given my life here. ”

When I heard the old farmer say this, I suddenly had a terrible thought in my heart: "According to what you say, the old lady committed suicide last night for ......."

The old farmer nodded and said, "Anyway, I think she doesn't want to be embarrassed in this world anymore." She was tired enough, and after a lifetime of worrying, she finally boiled the old man to death. A few days of peace passed. I didn't expect the old man to be uneasy when he died......"

Wushuang and I came to ∵ with the mood of observing the funeral of this model couple, but when we were depressed, the more we thought about it, the more unpleasant it became.

We went back to the old farmer's house and did nothing all day, and then we simply taught those Taoist priests.

I waited like this for three days. At noon on the third day. I heard a familiar voice at the gate asking, "Excuse me, is there a group of Taoist priests living in this house?" ”

I was eating. The voice is heard. I threw the steamed bun and rushed out. The action was so fast that he almost kicked the table.

I ran to the gate, and before I saw anyone, I shouted, "Fatty, is it you?" ”

Standing on the street, sweating profusely and asking for directions, it was indeed a fat man.

When he saw me, he was silly: "Xu You, so you are here." ”

Standing next to him was an old-fashioned Zhang Xin: "It's really hard to find a place to step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it......"

I scratched my head: "What do you mean?" Are you looking for me? ”

Zhang Xin hurriedly said: "Oh, I'm a mandrill, I don't know much idioms, I used it wrong, I used it wrong." ”

Then, the two of them walked in with me shoulder to shoulder.

The fat man saw that he couldn't care about what he was eating. Soon took my place and gobbled it up.

When the old farmer saw that such a large tonnage suddenly came, his face turned green. Then count on your fingers: "Nine, ten, eleven...... Well, we've got eleven people in our family. ”
