Chapter 241
The little couple were busy with each other, and it was the end of June in the blink of an eye, and at this time, the coffin shop had already been newly arranged, just waiting for Chu Yi to put the newly made seven coffins in the shop. These seven coffins are mainly remembered for a display function, the most common version made of pine wood and only polished, some with wood lacquer to retain their original color, and some painted black or brownish-red.
The most exquisite is the Nanmu coffin, the coffin at this time is a big head and a small one, pay attention to the head of the north and the south, the big side of the head, the small side of the foot, Chu Yi to this Nanmu coffin both ends are carved with complex patterns, the side of the foot is auspicious cloud pattern, the top side of the head is a big longevity word in the middle.
After the overall polishing, the black lacquer is used as the base, and some golden yellow pigments are used to outline the patterns on both sides, especially the big longevity character is particularly eye-catching, and it is a good coffin with a good mouth, which is placed in the middle of the coffin shop seven coffins by Chu Yi.
Ready for all this, seeing that there are still more than ten years, it is about to be the Midyear Festival, the little couple discussed the opening day of the coffin shop on the day of the Midyear Festival, mainly close to the Midyear Festival, the paper money shop is already busy, if you prepare for the opening of the coffin shop at the same time, I am afraid it is too busy to take care of it.
There is also a coffin shop opened by his own family, which is not like a restaurant or restaurant, which is lively and lively, and then there are some preferential activities, and people will come to the door one after another, if there is no real need, who will have nothing to do to visit the coffin shop. So the little couple was thinking that on the day of the Midyear Festival, the wholesale trading was basically busy, but there were still a lot of retail investors who came to buy paper money.
Besides, Shen Luzhu thought that his family opened a coffin shop, and he was engaged in funeral business, and he chose to open it on the Midyear Festival, which could be regarded as complementing each other, and he was begging for a fortune in disguise.
When the Dragon Boat Festival will be in the mountain village, Zhao Cheng also asked Chu Yi if he wanted to make more copper coins to burn paper before the Midyear Festival, after all, during the last Qingming Festival, because only a large number of paper ingots were produced, there were many people who went to the shop to clamore for copper money to burn paper.
The little couple thought about it, or asked Zhao Cheng to still follow the original plan, focusing on the production of paper ingots, after all, the Yang family has mastered the practice of mass production of copper coin burning paper, even if there was an accident during the Qingming Festival, but if you want to snatch the wholesale trade of copper coin burning paper with them again, it is still very easy, and the sales of paper ingots are also very good now, and there is no need to bet on whether the Yang family's workshop will have any accidents.
Sure enough, this Midyear Festival, the output of the Yang family's copper coin burned paper did not have any accidents, and it was still wholesaled to various shops at the price of the Chu family.
The little couple was imitated here, and they didn't see much impact, and they were still thriving every day, but the Yang family, who robbed others of the business, was not good, to be exact, the old man of the Yang family was even worse.
Although the Yang family has been asking Lang Zhong for treatment, but in the end, he is a rare person, and he has eaten a lot of all kinds of decoction and remedies, but not only has he not improved, but his body is getting weaker and weaker, and now he is sleeping most of the day.
Yang Fangwen is the most filial among the three sons, and he also deliberately went to Ningchuan Mansion, which belongs to Xing'an County, and invited a famous doctor who is said to be very experienced in this field to come over and treat his old man.
But after seeing the situation of the old man of the Yang family, after diagnosing the pulse and looking at the prescriptions he had drunk in the past few days, he sighed and said, "I already know the patient's condition, it is indeed a stroke caused by a rush to attack the heart, and these prescriptions are also symptomatic medicines, and there is no problem."
When the old lady of the Yang family heard this, she hurriedly asked, "Since there is no problem, why is the old man's health getting worse and worse?"
Na Langzhong reassured: "Don't worry, old lady, answer me a few questions first, what is the patient's temperament on weekdays, but he loves to be angry and has a hot temper?"
"This ...... Indeed, such a temper is that it is necessary to get angry at every turn."
Lang Zhong continued to ask, "But it's a joy of meat
Wine, don't like the heat?"
The old lady of the Yang family nodded again and again, and said secretly in her heart, is this really a miracle doctor? Otherwise, how could you know so clearly: "Yes, not at all."
Lang Zhong nodded to show that he understood, and then talked to everyone about the situation of the old man of the Yang family outside: "Although this illness is caused by a sudden fire, it is just an introduction, the patient is short-tempered, likes to be cold, and has a heavy diet of meat, the liver meridian is hot, the kidney is not absorbed, the lung meridian is deficient and hot, and he is close to old age, and his body is already like the end of a strong crossbow, even if there is no such thing as this stroke, I am afraid that it is just a hard support."
As soon as they heard this, Old Lady Yang and Yang Fangwen instantly panicked: "This, how is this good, please ask the divine doctor to save your life!"
Na Langzhong shook his head and said, "I'm not a miracle doctor, just an ordinary person who knows a little bit about the art of Qihuang, the patient's current state, it is impossible to recover to the original state, but if he can recuperate well, slowly try to make it not continue to deteriorate, and it is still feasible to save his life."
The old man of the Yang family is not good, no matter what the Yang family thinks in their hearts, at least on the surface, they are lifeless, and there is no joy and anger at all.
But the private actions have never stopped, Yang Fangwen and Yang Fangwu brothers are not in harmony with each other, and they both want to take advantage of the days when the old man can still have time to wake up, so that he can behave well, otherwise if he really can't wake up one day, or can't recognize people, according to the consistent behavior of the old lady of the Yang family, most of this business will inevitably go into Yang Fangsheng's pocket.
The old lady of the Yang family was worried about her father-in-law's body on the one hand, and on the other hand, she was not idle, and under the pretext of letting the third Yang Fangsheng be filial piety in front of the hospital bed, she directly sent someone to the ancestral house in the countryside to bring people back, Yang Fangwen and Yang Fangwu both knew that the old lady was afraid that the third child would suffer a loss and pave the way for him.
On the morning of the Midyear Festival, the neighbors who came to Chu Ji's funeral to buy paper money suddenly found that the plaque on the face of the Chu family was replaced with a particularly large one, directly across the middle of the east and west courtyards, but it was still covered with a red cloth at the moment, and it was impossible to see what was written on it.
"Boss, has this plaque been changed? Why is it covered with a red cloth, as if it has just opened?"
Shen Luzhu replied with a smile: "Auntie, my house is going to reopen, the shop in the west, I have opened a coffin shop again, and there will be firecrackers and lion dances at noon, if my aunt is free, how about coming over and watching the excitement together?"
The aunt's eyes widened in surprise, and she looked at Shen Luzhu incredulously: "Yo, the shop in the west has also been taken down by your family, I don't see it, you little couple are quite capable."
"How can there be, auntie, in fact, when I first moved over, I went down together, but I haven't thought about what to do over there, and I think about it, the old business of funeral is the most familiar, so I packed up and prepared to open."
The aunt took the paper money handed to her by Shen Luzhu, and said with a smile: "Then congratulations to the boss, I'll send these things home first, and come to your house at noon to see the excitement!"
"Cheng, I'll wait for my aunt."
There were a lot of people who went to Chu Ji to buy paper money in the morning, and they basically knew that Chu Ji had opened a coffin shop again, and they were invited by Shen Luzhu Anli to come to their house to watch the excitement.
Seeing that the time is getting closer and closer, there are more and more people who come to Chu Ji to wait and see the excitement, and many neighbors know that Chu Li has opened a new shop, and they all come to watch and congratulate.
Jiang Juan leaned in Shen Luzhu's ear and whispered, "Cousin-in-law's trick really works, look at this person, it's not more than when other people's restaurants open, there are fewer people coming."
Jiang Juan and Jiang Quan, the sisters and brothers, came from the previous one, and the brothers Shen Songjie and Shen Changshan came together, all of whom came specially to help cheer.
Originally, Shen Zeqi and Shen Songjie were together, but before leaving, Liu's mother's family came with news, saying that her grandfather was going to be bad, so Shen Changshan came over on behalf of the second room.
Chu Ping originally wanted to come, but on this day set by Chu Yixiao, he really couldn't get out of his body, so he begged Jiang Quan and asked him to help him congratulate him, and by the way, he also did his job, and said that after returning to the village, he invited Jiang Quan to eat and drink.
Just after the hour, the drum music sounded in front of the funeral door of Chu Ji, and with a tight drum beat, the red cloth quilt on the plaque
Chu Yi lifted it down with a bamboo pole.
Probably because it was a coffin shop, not like other shops, saying something like I hope you would patronize more, Chu Yi only bowed deeply in the congratulations of everyone, and after thanking everyone for their support, he didn't say more.
In order to attract more people's attention, the little couple specially invited the lion dance team this time, and performed for half an hour.
The bustle outside has dispersed, but the courtyard is still continuing, the little couple booked a large private room in a nearby restaurant, and wanted to invite relatives and friends who came to have a meal, as well as neighbors with good relations, which is to celebrate and express gratitude.
But Jiang Quan said that when he went to the restaurant to eat, he didn't have the hot pot barbecue that Shen Luzhu did, and it was interesting to drink and eat meat.
Chu Li's neighbors were also interested in hearing this, and they all said that they could try this.
In the end, I had to put up four large tables in the east and west courtyards, hot pot barbecue, hot meat and wine, I was afraid that the preparation was not enough or someone did not like these food, and specially ordered two tables of noodles, and asked the restaurant to help send them to their own yard.
Ding An was on duty today, and he took the maid to the east courtyard of the Chu family after being on duty in the evening, and saw that the courtyard was preparing lively, so he stepped forward to congratulate Chu Yi with a smile.
"Brother Chu, I'm sorry to be late, congratulations!"
"Brother Ding is really here, come and sit in the house, and you can start the meal in a while, and Azhu has prepared a lot of delicious food today."
Ding An looked around, and saw the pot that had been boiled, as well as skewers of meat and vegetables, and smiled even more: "I have long heard Miss Jiang and Brother Jiang Quan talk about it, saying that these hot pot barbecues made by my brother and sister are very delicious, it seems that I and Yaya are blessed today."
