Chapter 57: Good Things Are Coming

After our family chatted a few words about the funeral and the joy, my grandfather saw that I had no appetite, so he went back to my house and took a jar of marinated curd from the basement, which had been marinated for about three months, and could be eaten in the jar.

Knock knock

Outside, there was a knock on the door, and the voice was very urgent, interrupting our meal.

My grandfather was wearing rain boots and a bamboo umbrella, and when he walked out of the yard to open the door, he heard people outside the door shouting at my grandfather, "Ouch, Xu Laohan, your black dog is dead, so I have been knocking on the door for a long time!" That's what, that's that...... The little green snake is not there? ”

I know who it is, the old man Wang who lives next door, and he doesn't come and go all the year round, because their family knows our surname Xu, and they have always been unfriendly with the people in the village, so they don't move around at all.

Several times when the village chief brought people to me, he asked the old man Wang first, so I didn't have a good impression of this old man, especially when I asked my daughter, I put down the dishes and chopsticks, closed the door of the living room, and didn't plan to let him in.

Although Nianbai is half snake and half human, when someone says that she is a green snake and is afraid of her appearance, she is very disgusted, because she was born by me.

Seeing that I was so unfriendly, my grandmother also put down the dishes and chopsticks, patted the table, took away the genealogy in my hand, and said angrily, "Cherish your current life, you are a businessman now, and you are a guest when you open the door!" ”

There is no money to be made, and it is still lost, what kind of businessman is it?

The five resentful spirits who were reburied last time, their children and grandchildren were stingy, although they said that they were free, and they were given a bag of rice and a basket of eggs at that time, but they all ran away at a critical time, and they came to blame me afterwards.

If it weren't for the sake of being a human being and not being a snake, I really wouldn't want to atone for my sins and redeem these resentful spirits.

Now that there is nothing to do, I have to go to the Three Treasures Palace, and now this middleman is either looking for my grandfather to inquire about something, or he has something.

I nodded, got up again to open the door, and heard Wang Laohan and my grandfather talking and laughing, and the two of them hooked shoulders as if they had reached a consensus.

I frowned, clubbed my chin, and fell into deep thought.

What did these two people talk about?

When Wang Laohan was talking to my grandfather, his eyes looked at me from time to time, and he showed a mouthful of buckteeth, and he smiled.

After my grandfather closed the door, he walked towards me with an umbrella and a peach blossom smile on his face.

"Old man, what happy event for you to enjoy, that old king is not a good thing, don't promise people casually."

"Good thing! Meddlesome! His family wants to do a happy event, three days ago, but unfortunately this snow has been falling, the next one keeps delaying, Wang Laohan's son marryed, married is from the next village, so I want to borrow the tree hole house to do the happy event, of course I don't agree. ”

The son of the old Han family?

Not dead a few years ago!

My eyes widened, first at that time, my grandfather told me, saying that I would borrow the funeral not to borrow the joy, and in the blink of an eye, someone came to borrow the tree hole house to do a happy event, and I knew that I was not happy.

Grandma was anxious when she heard this, so she immediately picked up her crutches and went to beat her grandfather.

"Old thing! If you don't agree, you'll be happy, right? His son has long since died, who will marry! Even if you get married, it's a happy event. ”

I didn't stop my grandmother, on the contrary, I felt that my grandmother played well.

This grandfather is good at everything, but he can't distinguish between good people and bad people, as long as others ask him, he can't find the north.

Anyway, the house is mine, borrowing a tree hole house, impossible! This is a place where I do white things, and I can only borrow it for funerals, not for happy events.

Ouch

Oops

When my grandfather was beaten with a cane, he wailed one by one, and when he came to pull my sleeve, I turned around and pretended not to see it.

"But the bride is dead! Dead people understand, right? It hurts me to death, Wang Laohan's family has an ancestor who is also surnamed Chen, when Chen Tang Guanren's family, a joy and a funeral were done together, and it didn't matter at all if he was happy, not to mention that he was happy for the dead, the premise was that he could not bring Nianbai on the seventh day of the first month, otherwise he would frighten the woman, and people would not be happy to marry. ”

Celebrate the dead? It's over, and the coffin will be reburied with Wang Laohan's ancestors.

One joy and one funeral, doing it together, it's really the first time I've heard of it.

This is equivalent to a phantom marriage, which is indeed not a happy event, but it is Wang Laohan who found me, and I am afraid that I will .......

I stood up, drank a glass of water, shook my head and firmly disagreed with the borrowing.

Grandpa cautiously looked at my grandmother's face, "Wang Laohan said, if this thing is done, he can give us 50,000 yuan, and at the same time give us a guard dog, as well as a basket of radishes and two bags of rice. ”

Fifty thousand?

For the first time, those who are willing to give money to change coffins are the key to sending so much.

If you say anything else, I believe that although this old man looks rich at home and is not short of money, he is really not good at being a man.

Grandma was originally very angry, but because she listened to her grandfather's words, she was a little skeptical like me.

I started rummaging through my school bag, finding the yellow calendar, muttering words I didn't understand, and counting them with my fingers.

Then I poured water overnight and told me to spit in it, which I did.

I saw my grandmother grab a handful of honeycomb ash from the ground and put it in the water, "Hey, there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south." ”

Crash

When the water splashed on the ground, two words quickly appeared.

big

lucky

I breathed a sigh of relief, looked at my grandfather in my hand, took a hot towel and put it on his face.

"Grandpa, I took this job, but let Wang Laohan pay a deposit of 30,000 yuan first, I'm afraid that he will frame me."

The deposit of 30,000 yuan can allow me to repay the loan for four months and save some living expenses at the same time.

It's okay to improve your life, you don't have to take Nianbai, it's snowing outside, this child is spending the winter, and he won't run out if he sleeps very soundly.

Grandpa covered his cheeks, nodded, and went out with an umbrella again.

In less than half an hour, it was back.

When I came back, I had a sack in my hand, and as soon as the sack was opened, it was really 30,000 cash bills, and they were all 100 yuan.

It was the first time I earned so much money on my own, and since I was dropped out of school, I have been helping my grandparents do some things to supplement the family.

With my grandmother predicting this, my inner struggle was finally let go.

In Uncle Ge's customer book, the first customer file was written, which was Wang Laohan's daughter-in-law.

Wang Laohan's son died of illness, a year ago, he was only twenty-six when he died, it is a pity that he is not married, and it is a good thing to have a ghost.

So, I went back to my house and started to read the yellow calendar, and used A31 to look up information on the Internet to learn how to bury and how to hold this wedding.

I was too excited, and then I went to the living room to look at the bowl of lard fried rice, and a can of marinated tofu was completely tasteless, and I could finally improve my food, turkey, pork legs, and pork ribs were waiting for me.

Good days are coming!
