Bone Picker

Chapter 3 Repentance
Finally made it to my birthday.

At eight o'clock this morning, five luxury cars drove to my door on time.

The five families got out of the car, they greeted each other, and entered my house talking and laughing.

There are three people in each family, but it is not a family of three, but besides the father and daughter, there is also an accompanying person.

These people looked like they were knowledgeable people. Obviously, they were Fengshui masters hired by five families, and one of them was a Taoist priest.

They sat down after offering incense to my grandfather, and I made tea for them.

But no one picked up the teacup, and everyone's eyes were full of disgust.

They are all expensive now, and they look down on the rough tea I make.

"We came here 18 years ago, the agreement between our five families and your grandfather, you should know this." Li Changqing, the head of the Li family, said first.

"I know." I nodded.

Five girls lined up and stood in front of me.

They looked me up and down, with different eyes, curious and disgusted.

"Jin Yongge."

"Muzi Li."

"Wang Xiaoquan."

"Di Tingting."

"Shi Xiaolan."

Five girls said their names one after another.

The five parents looked at each other, and the expert they invited also made eye contact, each thinking in their hearts.

"Mobai, it's like this!" When Li Changqing said this, he glanced at me, and he said, "We brought our respective daughters here to get to know you, young people, it's no problem to make friends, as for you I ordered a doll, let me see."

"Uncle Li, what do you mean by that?" I was quite surprised, this was straight to the point of regretting the marriage, and judging by the posture, the five families obviously discussed it.

"Mobai, don't worry. Sit down and let Uncle Li analyze it for you. See if what I said makes sense." Li Changqing took my arm and motioned me to sit down. He still put his arm around my shoulder, as if He seems to be very familiar with him.

He said to me in the tone of an elder: "Mobai, you are old too. You are an adult and sensible. We are now in a new society, and marriage also pays attention to free love. It is not like the arranged marriages of the older generation. No? They can’t be unwilling, let’s tie them up and marry you, it’s illegal, right?”

I nodded cooperatively. Seeing me nodding, the faces of the others showed secret joy.

"Marriage today is all about pleasing two people and agreeing with each other. Marriage is based on the voluntary and deep feelings of both parties. Don't you think so?" Li Changqing asked me again.

"Yes." I nodded cooperatively again.

Seeing me nodding again, the others were delighted, thinking that I was young and easy to deceive, and it seemed that Li Changqing had already grasped me.

"Mobai, they are all the same age as you, and they are all studying, they are not yet married, and they all have their own ideals and beautiful life plans. Before we came, we also asked them what they meant. They all disagree with this marriage." Li Changqing pretended to be very helpless, and said: "But our five families have all received the kindness of your grandfather's search for dragons and acupuncture points, and we have to repay this kindness. Your grandfather passed away, and our five families are busy. The whole village is very envious of helping grandpa handle the affairs behind him beautifully, isn’t it?”

"En." I took a deep breath and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, it's all right! As for you, we definitely can't ignore you, we've already made arrangements for you." Li Changqing winked at the parents of the Shi family.

The parents of the Shi family took out a red book from their bag, pushed it in front of me and said, "Our Shi family is in the real estate business. This is a villa in Panshi Yayuan, a real estate under our company. It has a total of 360 square meters. is you."

He glanced at my house and said: "The old house you live in now is still a tile-roofed house. It has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is almost becoming a dilapidated house. This is Uncle Shi's wish. You can accept it."

Li Changqing took it and said: "Your house has not been renovated yet, our Li family does custom-made furniture, the hardcover of your house and all the furniture and appliances in the room, Uncle Li has packaged it for you, and must use the best materials."

The parents of the Wang family took out a car key and a green book from their pockets, handed it to me and said, "This is the Cayenne I just picked up from the 4S shop, it has your name written on it, and this is your wedding car. "

The parents of the Jin family went on to say: "We will help you find a suitable girl for a blind date. If you like it, our five families will help you arrange the wedding. Uncle Jin will cover the bride price, gold and silver jewelry, and wedding banquet expenses for you. .”

Finally, the parents of the Di family said with a smile: "Mobai, look at the wedding room, wedding car, wedding, including the object. Our five families have all arranged for you. Now you only need a job. You learn to pick bones from your grandfather. But now that cremation is practiced, this craft is useless. Our Di family is engaged in the funeral industry, which just matches your craft. Uncle Di will arrange a lifelong job for you, and let you be in charge of one of his cremation Field, what do you think?"

As soon as the words came out, everyone looked at me. As long as I nodded and agreed, then their goal of regretting the marriage would really be achieved.

I'm young, but I'm not stupid, so you want to get rid of me with just this little thing?
I glanced at the five families, smiled wryly and shook my head.

What a painstaking effort.

Wedding room, wedding car, object, wedding, work, all covered.

If it was someone else, he would have been grateful to Dade for agreeing.

But I am not someone else, I am Li Mobai.

I am a living dead with no tomorrow and no longevity.

For these extraneous things, I don't care at all.

What's more, these five marriages are based on the five geomantic treasures found by the luck of five generations of our Li family.

Compared with these five geomantic treasures, this seemingly attractive condition is nothing.

"These five marriages were made between my grandfather and your five parents. I can't make the decision myself." I smacked my lips and said.

As soon as the words came out, several parents looked at each other.

"But your grandfather passed away." Li Changqing glanced at my grandfather's portrait.

"If my grandfather is still alive, would your five families dare to regret the marriage?" I asked them back.

"You..." Li Changqing's face fell instantly, and he said: "We are not discussing with you now, but to inform you of our decision, and we have given you so many things. Your life has been fulfilled. This is something that many people have struggled for a lifetime, and our five families will help you solve it in an instant."

"Yes, Mo Bai, don't be shameless."

"Do you think these are not enough? It doesn't matter. If you think it is not enough, you can ask for any conditions. As long as we can do it, we will promise you."

"Young people should not be greedy..."

Others agreed one after another, and some even yelled, shook their faces, slapped the table, and forced me to accept their conditions.

Although I am young, I am not a brat. I followed my grandfather from childhood. I have never seen what kind of people. How can I be intimidated by these people?
