The best mysterious doctor

Chapter 9: A Funeral Full of Loopholes

When I was about to pack up the ladder and go there, I heard a shout from the opposite yard, and I immediately leaned over and listened to it.

The one who spoke was the head of our village, who was in the same family as Grandpa Liu, also surnamed Liu, named Liu Naisheng, who was older than my grandfather, and we all affectionately called him the old village head.

I'm sure I couldn't hear his hoarse and vicissitudes of voice: "Everyone, today the old head Liu went, and you have all seen it. I invite you to come today to help the boss of the Liu family and settle the funeral. It's done.

I discussed it with the boss of the Liu family and the old Outou, and I will invite everyone to dinner tonight, and get up to go up the mountain tomorrow morning. "

As soon as the old village chief's words fell, there was a burst of surprise.

"So fast? Isn't it going to stop for more than three days?"

"Yeah, why so fast?"

"Hey, the Liu family has lived a poor life for the past two years, so let's get rid of it quickly and forget about it."

Amidst the discussions, the old village chief Liu Naisheng waved his hands, sighed and said, "Yes! I said something that shouldn't be said,

That bastard bastard Liu Quan wasted a lot of money when he was alive. Look at our village now, no one's house is built with brick buildings, only Liu's house still has muddy walls.

Although it has slowed down a lot in the past two years, the days are still quite tight, and this kind of terrible thing happens again, and it will be uncomfortable for anyone who puts it on.

Now the life in our village is getting better day by day. The folks in the big hometown are all stretching out their hands and pulling each other.

Alright, everyone stop talking, this matter is settled like this, after dinner tonight, everyone will get up early tomorrow morning to go up to the mountain.

Old Outou has calculated that 05:30 tomorrow morning is an auspicious time, and please come and help me at that time. "

Sure enough, the coffin was only parked for one day, and the coffin would wake up tomorrow morning, which was too hasty.

According to the rules, no matter what happens, the coffin has to be parked for three days before it's passable, but Grandpa Liu's coffin is only parked for one day, is it wrong?
I wondered in my heart, I had only heard of the selection of the day before, but I had never heard of the selection of the hour. At 05:30, it will be six o'clock after all the procedures are completed, just in time for the time before Grandpa Liu died.

And looking at the posture of the old village chief and my grandfather, is this trying to get the coffin out of the coffin during the whole day?Could it be that Grandpa Liu was really scared to death by something?

Although I am young, I have been with my grandfather since I was a child. I still understand a lot of these rules, and I found out the problem easily.

"It's easy to say, the old village head has spoken, how can he not help!"

"That's right, Brother Liu Tai also helped our family carry the coffin last year. We must help with this favor."

"Don't worry, come tomorrow morning."

The people in the village are relatively simple, a few guys say what you say to each other, and everyone is very loyal. Naturally, other people have no objection. After all, they are all in the same village. Everyone can see each other when they look up. When encountering such a thing, everyone can understand.

"Come on, let's start the banquet. Today, my old Liu has prepared a box of Red Star Erguotou for everyone, and I have enough to eat and drink all of them."

The old village chief tore open the wine box at his feet, and put it out next to my grandfather's table.

During the whole process, the old village head and my grandfather were busy, and Liu Tai and his wife never showed up, which made me feel strange again.

It stands to reason that this kind of matter should be handled by a filial son himself. What kind of thing is it to let the two old men wait on the guests outside?
What's more, my grandfather is still wearing Taoist robes!

What he should do now is to chant mantras around the coffin instead of greeting guests outside.

Could it be that Liu Tai is a Taoist priest in the house, and my grandfather and the old village chief are dutiful sons outside?
Phew, what am I thinking about?

I was thinking about it, and someone over there has already asked.

"Hey, old Outou, I said, where is Liu Tai? We are all about to have a banquet, and we haven't seen anyone else. Who are we giving this gift to?
Where is his wife?No matter how I look at it, there is no one in the main room except for a coffin, this is not right! "

Called Liu Dazhuang, he was the first batch of people in our village to make a fortune by running mountain goods business in the town.

In those days, those who had [-] in their hands were from the families of the rich.Households of ten thousand yuan are all rich families.

Liu Dazhuang lived up to his name, he was big and thick, tall and mighty, and he looked naive.

Don't look at him as stupid, if you take him seriously, then you are purely stupid.

My grandpa used to say that big people have big wisdom.

This Liu Dazhuang is the kind of person with great wisdom. He can figure out some details better than a woman.

How else can people know that they are selling mountain goods in the town, but others don't?
Moreover, Liu Dazhuang asked this question very well, and when he saw something was wrong, he directly used the gift money to talk.

In fact, no matter in that era or now, rich people have enough confidence to speak. When this guy suddenly asked, other people also saw that something was wrong. There is no reason why a filial son is not around when someone is dead in the family.
You don't have to entertain guests outside, but you always have to keep a vigil in front of the coffin, right?
That's great, Xiaozi didn't see it either, he only saw a coffin, which is too unreasonable.

You must know that these people also came with gift money, but so far no one has received the gift.

Everyone knows that Liu Tai's mother-in-law is a cheapskate, how could she be missing in receiving gifts?

But now such a strange thing has happened, no one is at the host's house, but two outsiders are helping with the funeral, how can we not make people suspicious?

Everyone had doubts in their hearts one by one, and began to discuss quietly again.

"Yeah, where did Liu Tai go? Did you see it?"

"Where can I see it? His wife doesn't seem to be there either."

"No one accepts the gift, his wife is definitely not here, how can Meizhi not be here for collecting money?"

"Haven't you heard? When Liu Quan died in the first year, the Liu family was haunted by ghosts?"

"Don't mention that, who in our village doesn't know about that? Do you need to say it?"

"What I mean is, is this old Liu head coming back to make trouble like Liu Quan?"

"I guess it is. Why else would the old Liu's family only park the coffins for one day? I guess it's because they're afraid that something will go wrong again."

As soon as these people mentioned it, I immediately remembered that when Liu Quan died two years ago, his elder brother Liu Tai organized a funeral for him under the strong opposition of Grandpa Liu.

I still remember that Liu's family was poor at that time, but Liu Tai insisted on selling three dans of rice from his family for Liu Quan's funeral.

Liu Tai said, Liu Quan is my own younger brother. No matter how wrong he did in life, after death, everything will be over. Even if I sell everything, I have to send it to him.

The coffin was not a good one, it was bought with money, and the shroud was seven layers, and even crossed the brazier, singing rituals and other expensive items were done.

At that time, Liu Tai was crying so loudly, which shows how deep the relationship between the two brothers is.

It's just that the funeral was ready, and when the coffin was about to wake up, something happened.
