Bone Picker

Chapter 4 The Young Taoist Priest

"Have you brought all your marriage letters?" I asked the five parents.

"Bring it." Several people said in unison, and took out the marriage certificate from their pockets.

"Well, just bring it with you. If you don't agree to the marriage, you can burn the marriage certificate in front of my grandfather's portrait. Burn the marriage certificate to my grandfather and tell him the reason. Let him know the reason." I turned my head. Looking at the portrait of my grandfather.

"Burn it and burn it."

"He came here to call off the engagement. Since his grandfather has passed away, let's burn it to him."

Three parents have already walked up to my grandfather's portrait, took out their lighters, and prepared to light the fire.

But Li Changqing and Di Huayou from the Di family looked at each other.

Li Changqing squinted at me and asked me, "Mobai, did your grandfather explain anything before he died?"

Upon hearing Li Changqing's question, the three parents who were about to light the fire stopped for a moment and turned to look at me.

I haven't waited for my answer yet.

But Li Muzi said unhappily: "Father, what are you talking to him about? We have received a little kindness from his grandfather. We not only died for his grandfather, but also considered for him, buying him a house and a car, finding a wife, What else can he do to arrange work?"

"Yes, I can't figure it out! Yes, maybe our five families have been guided by his grandfather and have some luck, but the success of our five families is not all due to the hard work of everyone's hands to achieve what we are today Achievement? The so-called three points are destined, seven points depend on hard work, this is what we worked hard on our own, does it have anything to do with their Li family?"

"Anyway, I've made it clear to him. Whether he likes it or not, he accepts it, and everyone is happy. If he doesn't want it, we can save money. As for those so-called feudal superstitions, anyway, I don't believe them. We belong to the new society. Successor, believe in science, not in these things."

"And each of our families has its own master's advice, who can break the trap set by his grandfather."

These girls spoke out one after another, and the Feng Shui masters were also very proud.

Only the young Taoist priest among them closed his eyes and said nothing, as if he was meditating.

The so-called master Fengshui masters of the other four schools, I have observed them, they are money-losers with little skill, only this Taoist priest who closes his eyes and meditates, I am a bit confused.

Li Changqing strikes while the iron is hot and urges me: "Mo Bai, does your grandfather have anything to say?"

I shrugged, glanced at everyone present, and then spoke slowly.

"My grandfather explained to me before he died."

"What did you explain?" As soon as these people heard my grandfather's explanation, they immediately cheered up.

"He told me that the five marriage certificates you gave to our family were pasted on my bed board with brown mats on them. He asked me to lift the brown mats today and look at the five marriage books. If the girl's name is still there, choose whoever."

After I finished speaking, the five people looked at each other and at their feng shui master.

Li Changqing said: "It doesn't hurt to have a look."

"Yes, yes, it's okay to have a look." The other four parents echoed, huddling together to keep warm and cheer each other up.

"Then if the names of our five girls are still there, how do you choose?"

"Yes, if they are still there, won't we go back to the original point?"

"Let's just take a look. We don't want to get married. If the names are gone, it's God's will."

Anyway, they are determined to regret the marriage, but they are worried about what my grandfather left behind, and want to see what it is.

They hurried me and followed me into my room.

I hugged the quilt and pillow to the side, and then pulled the brown mattress, and five marriage letters lined up, came into view.

The five marriage letters were originally written in ink on red paper, but after 18 years, the red paper has faded, and the words on it have become yellowed and doubled.

These people all gathered around, carefully looking at the marriage certificates, looking for their own marriage certificates.

"Hahaha, our Li family's characters are blurred and we can't see Muzi's name. We Muzi don't need to marry anymore." Li Changqing couldn't hide his inner joy, laughed loudly, and said what was in his heart.

"It's the same with our Wang family. Xiaoquan's name has also faded and can't be seen anymore. Xiaoquan doesn't need to marry anymore."

"Our Xiaolan's name is the same. The red paper is moldy, and the place where Xiaoquan's name is written is torn. I can't see the name."

"The same goes for our Jin family and Di family. We can't find our daughter's name."

"Everyone is happy."

This group of people cheered and laughed happily.

"Mobai, since God's will is like this, then we can only follow God's will. It's not because we broke the promise, it's because God doesn't allow you to marry the daughters of our five families."

"Okay, then go and burn the marriage certificate." I stepped aside and accepted it generously.

The five parents took out their marriage certificates, walked up to my grandfather's portrait, and each took out a lighter.

Li Changqing said to my grandfather's portrait: "Mr. Li, we came to the appointment today. According to your instructions, we lifted the brown mattress on the black and white bed and found that the marriage certificates were moldy and there were no words on them. Since God's will, Then we can only follow God's will and return the marriage certificate to you, and the marriage contract between your family Mo Bai and our five daughters will be cancelled."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Li, although we can't be in-laws, we are also good friends of your Li family. Thanks to your kindness in the past, the five of us have flourished in our respective industries and flourished day by day. Your old man Don't worry, we won't ignore Mo Bai."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Li, our five families will help Mo Bai find a suitable girl, let them get married, continue the incense of the Li family, and also buy him a car, a house, and a job, so that he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life."

These parents echoed and prepared to set fire to the marriage certificate after speaking.

At this moment, the Taoist priest who closed his eyes and meditated suddenly opened his eyes and said loudly: "Wait a minute, the other four of your families will not marry, but Tingting from the Di family will marry."

Everyone turned around suddenly and looked at the young Taoist priest.

Not to mention that the other four families were dumbfounded, the father and daughter of the Di family were also dumbfounded.

The head of the Di family walked quickly to the side of the young Taoist priest and asked in a low voice, "Master, why did you say that?"

"Don't ask, do as I say." The young Taoist didn't tremble, looked at the other four families, and said, "Since your four families have withdrawn, then burn the marriage certificate. The Di family is willing to marry their daughter to the Li family." , marry Mobai, and complete the engagement."

"This..." The other parents were puzzled, looked at each other, and then at their Feng Shui master.

The feng shui masters of the other four families were also dumbfounded. They were scammers who mixed up money. They thought they were just going through the motions today, but they didn't expect a Taoist priest who didn't fit in.

They all pretended to be thinking about something, and after a long time, they couldn't tell why. They all looked at the young Taoist priest in unison.
