Chen Lin came over and asked for my opinion. I couldn't figure out why for a while, so I asked them to seal up the place as the horse face had commanded. The coffins of these two sons and mothers don't look abnormal now, as long as they don't move, there must not be any abnormalities in a short period of time. On the contrary, I was a little curious about the horse's face.

To say that this son and mother is really not an ordinary evil, ordinary people are afraid to avoid it. Even if Maoshan is the best at this kind of thing, I'm afraid it will have to send several sect masters to work together at the same time. But this horse face seems to be full of confidence in the broken son and mother, and I don't know where he came from.

Old man Zheng said: "This Chengfeng Dao chief is a little more ambitious. Little brother, he can let out his words before, and tomorrow he will make some mediocre people have nothing to say. Hey, this mediocre person, isn't that what we mean? ”

I smiled and said, "Then let's take a look at it from the side, and it won't be laborious." ”

Old man Zheng sighed and said, "Alas, it's really more popular than people!" While he was talking, the second uncle of the Chen family had ordered someone to dig up the inner courtyard of the two coffins and seal it, walked up to us, smiled at me, and said, "This little brother is Lin'er's friend, right?" ”

Before I could reply, the middle-aged fat man had already turned to Chen Lin and said, "Lin'er, if you have time, take your friends to the town for a walk, and don't come in this inner courtyard." By the way, your second uncle will also contribute to your father's funeral, so you don't have to worry. ”

After saying that, he led a few people out. Listening to Chen Lin, her second uncle has already separated and lives in other places. But at this time, even if he is allowed to live, this fat man probably doesn't have the guts.

Chen Lin said apologetically to me: "I'm sorry, Xiaojing, don't pay attention to my second uncle." ”

I smiled and said that it was okay, and said to Old Man Zheng: "Master Zheng, weren't you invited by the second uncle, why did you leave you here?" ”

The old man Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't it useless to look at the old man?" Then he said with a bitter face, "Now I don't even have a place to live." ”

Chen Lin's little face was swollen and red, and he said, "Master Zheng, my second uncle didn't mean that either. Look, why don't you stay here for the night? ”

Old man Zheng was overjoyed, and agreed repeatedly, saying, "Then I happen to be a companion with my little brother, let's have a little wine in the evening." ”

I looked at him in surprise. The old man Zheng's face was embarrassed, and he said: "I saw that the little brother had extremely high attainments in the tomb bureau and had a lot of insights, so I wanted to ask for advice." ”

As soon as I heard this, I felt even more strange in my heart. To be honest, my initial impression of this man was quite bad, sleek and arrogant. I didn't expect him to say such a thing.

Old man Zheng's face turned red, and he heaved, "Since what happened back then, the little old man has been fascinated by the funeral affairs of the cemetery. It's just that I don't have a master to lead the way, so I can only ponder by myself and take many crooked paths. Although the little brother is young, the expert knows if there is one as soon as he makes a move, and the little old man wants to be cheeky and ask for advice. ”

I was so impressed with this little old man. It seems that this man really likes the funeral business. In recent years, there are really not many people who like our industry, and the more I look at this little old man now, the more pleasing it is.

Chen Lin led us to the guest room. The Liu family's house is already big, with countless rooms, and at this time it is a special period, and the whole house is empty, but now there are a few more of us, and we are finally a little angry, and even Chen's mother's face is better.

Chen Lin showed me the way, and I went to the room to find Qingzi. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Aoko sitting by the window reading a book. The books she usually reads are still on my back, probably from the bookshelf here. I took a look at the room, and it was quite elegantly furnished, and my bedroom was opposite, so close to my liking.

I put my bag away, moved a chair and sat down next to Aoko, lay down on the table, tossed and turned for a while, and then kept scratching my hair.

"What's the blame?" Qingzi turned a page of the book and said coldly.

I said in distress, "There's something I can't figure out." ”

Aoko didn't pay any attention to me anymore. I tossed and turned for a while, and I was really a little impetuous, so I put one hand on my cheek, rested on the table, stared at her, and after watching for a while, I was even in a much more comfortable mood.

"Chen Lin's mother said that she made some red date cakes, which seem to be delicious, I'll go get some for you?" I said with my face between my hands.

This time, Qingzi finally ignored me, and said "um". The dead woman was indifferent to other things, but she was quite interested in some delicious and beautiful things.

I got up and went to the back kitchen, still thinking about the two iron coffins from before. Although the analysis of the horse face is reasonable, I always feel that something is wrong. Probably the horse's face is from the perspective of their bull-nosed Taoist priest, and I am from the perspective of our funeral industry.

Later, I happened to bump into Chen Lin, and when I heard that I wanted red date cake, he immediately took me to get two plates. We stayed at Chen's house that night, and Chen's mother was busy with everything else, and her haggard face was a little ruddy. After all, when there are many people, the family is hot, and it is much stronger than the cold wind and rain of their mother and daughter before.

Qingzi had eaten red date cakes, but she didn't come out to eat in the room. The old man Zheng really went to bring two bottles of wine and said that he wanted to drink with me. Chen Lin also drank most of the cup with him. After a few glasses of wine, the old man Zheng opened up and kept talking.

I listened for a while, this little old man has really worked hard for our industry, and compared to ordinary insiders, it is already a lot stronger. It's just that he is only self-taught after all, and many things are hearsay, and some of them are even completely misunderstood. He didn't say a single question, I answered one, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Later, after dinner, the little old man still had to pull me to talk non-stop, but Chen Lin's girl had eyesight, and came over to say that everyone was tired, and she should rest early tonight, so she persuaded the little old man to go back to the room.

I was so drunk that I didn't dare to enter Aoko's door, so I sneaked back to my room. I washed my face, left the door open, and went to bed. It's all a habit, and when Qingzi sleeps across from me, I don't close the door.

For a while, the wine was strong, but I fell asleep in a daze. I don't know if I was still thinking about the two coffins in my heart, and I woke up suddenly after sleeping until midnight. Then I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep again.

After turning over in bed for a long time, he simply sat up, glanced at the other side, and asked, "Did you sleep?" ”

After a long time, I heard a sentence from the other side: "What are you doing?" ”

I was happy for a while and said, "It's nothing, I just can't sleep, I want to talk to you." ”

After a while, I dimly heard Aoko's "um". I babbled on and on about what had happened. When I used to be at home, every time I came back from outside, no matter what happened or not, I always told Aoko what happened during the day during the meal.

Although Aoko usually doesn't express her opinion, as long as I tell her, I feel at ease.

"I always feel that something is wrong today, but I can't think of anything wrong." After finishing speaking, I really felt a lot more comfortable and thorough, and I was not so irritable. After a long time, seeing that Qingzi didn't speak again, he probably went to sleep. I couldn't help but get up from the bed, put on my shoes, and tiptoed out the door.

When I walked to the door, I only heard a faint sentence floating out of Qingzi's room: "If you think it's wrong, that's wrong." When I heard this, my heart was hot, and I went out as quietly as I could, and when I came to the courtyard, I had been alone for a long time.

After the music, I touched the kitchen and took a big bowl, filled most of the bowl with water, and then walked out along the yard. A few white-skinned lanterns hung in the Chen family's house, swaying in the wind. I followed the aisle to the front yard and saw that the coffins of the six members of the Chen family were still parked there, and there were still a few bunches of incense burning next to them.

At this time, it was already past the hour, it was getting late, and the courtyard gate had long been closed. I climbed over the wall and walked slowly along the empty stone path, looking up at the stars in the sky as I went.
