My master is invincible

Chapter 82

After my father finished speaking, he patted me on the shoulder, turned around and entered the room. I was in a daze for a long time. First love is not necessarily true love, but it is definitely the first time a person has tasted the taste of "love".

That night, I didn't sleep, and I had a lot of things on my mind. Finally, I listened to my father's words and planned to move my grandfather's grave and then go to see Cheng Xiaocheng. Grandpa's grave is the most important thing at hand.

It was just dawn the next day, and I washed my face with cold water, and my mind cleared up a bit. Logically speaking, Lang Gao knew about the affairs of the No. minutes by car.I made a phone call to him and asked him the reason. He kept squeaking for a long time, and finally choked out a sentence, "I don't want you to have anything to do with her, so I kept it from you."

I understand what he meant, he was afraid that I would be in love, and I didn't blame him for hiding me, so I asked him to come to my house the day before the grave was moved, and after finishing the grandfather's business, he would accompany me to lie in No. [-] Middle School, and he agreed.

Hanging up the phone, I stayed in the room for a while, and when I looked up, I happened to see my father preparing breakfast and bringing it out. He said: "Jiuzi, the grave will be moved in two days, and your grandpa's new coffin hasn't arrived yet. It's too late to do it now, and I mean go to someone else's house and take a break."

"I can't buy a new one? Why go to someone else's house to return it?" I was a little puzzled.

"New coffins are too expensive. Our family now costs 1 yuan. A new coffin costs three to four thousand yuan. If you go to someone else's house and return a small one, it will cost about a thousand yuan." Father put breakfast on the table , sat down.

"Anyone willing to quit?" I asked.

"Yes, Lao Wang said that a man in Liujia Village made a fortune and planned to make a big coffin for his parents. It would be a pity to throw away the small coffin, but it would be unlucky not to throw it away, so he planned to dispose of it cheaply." Father frowned. , with a hint of self-blame in his tone.

The big coffin and the small coffin that my father talked about are actually two types of coffins: the sixteen-height coffin and the ten-height coffin. The so-called sixteen-height coffin and the ten-height coffin seem to be bigger than the ten-height coffin, but it is actually the opposite. The coffin of Shiliuhe is much smaller and thinner than that of Shihe.

Making coffins is very particular. A carpenter without certain skills cannot make a good coffin. In the past, coffins had straight edges and corners, but now they have evolved into five strands and three circles. To make the effect of five strands and three circles, the selection of materials is harsh. There are many, if you make a ten-fold coffin, you will use ten wooden boards as the material. If ten wooden boards are used to make a coffin, the material used must be thick, and only thick ones can produce that effect.

The sixteen-fold coffin is much more random in terms of materials. A coffin made of 16 yuan planks is like a puzzle, and the wood will naturally be much thinner. The whole coffin looks far worse than The ten-fold coffin is beautiful, just like a foreign house or an adobe house.

According to rural customs, the coffin the deceased sleeps in is big enough and thick enough to be comfortable, and the posterity will also have face, but in the eyes of our Eight Immortals, a coffin is a coffin, and there is no difference between ten and sixteen. Anyway, they are all coffins. Emphasis, lightness, as far as the coffin is carried by wheels, we prefer to carry the sixteen-fold coffin because it is light.

It’s a bit far away, so let’s get down to business, I stood up and sat down next to my father. I understand his self-blame. According to rural customs, the coffin used to move the grave must be larger than the previous coffin, and our family’s economy is not good. , A ten-fold coffin costs at least eight or nine thousand, and even better materials cost tens of thousands, and some even cost 10,000+ or ​​hundreds of thousands. These things are incomparable.

"Then return the coffin, I believe grandpa can understand us!" I patted my father on the shoulder, and asked him to go to Liujia Village to return the coffin, and asked Lao Wang and some people in the village to help transport it back. Just treat them to a meal.

My father nodded, then asked me for a mobile phone, called Daoist Qingxuanzi, and briefly talked about the relocation of the grave, and the other end of the phone readily agreed. When my father asked him about his salary, Qingxuanzi said , according to the general Taoist priests, he can't break the rules.

The people who should be called to move the grave are almost all called, and now there is only one chef in charge, and the Eight Immortals who carry the coffin. When it comes to the chef in charge, they are usually helped by their relatives, who cook meals to greet those who come to move the grave people with relatives and friends.

However, on the day when the grave was moved, my father and I were to be filial sons and grandsons. My mother was sick and couldn’t go to the ground in bed. But this culinary skill is still good. My father and I talked it over and agreed.

Afterwards, my father called Shang Lao Wang and some laborers from the village to Liujia Village to buy coffins. I was thinking about the Eight Immortals at home. With Fatty Guo’s face, he was one, and Lao Wang’s vicious appearance was also one. I have no clue about the six Eight Immortals.

Most of the Eight Immortals are from poor families, where the nobility and good fortune come from, and in the end, they have no choice but to find some people with vicious looks.

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally came up with an idea, such things as luck and nobility are innate, and there is no way to do it, so I plan to draw something on the faces of Gao Lao and the others to make them look a little fierce , the effect should be about the same.

Thinking of this, I called Gao Lao and the Eight Immortals, told them the auspicious day, and asked them to come over for breakfast that morning and break ground at noon.

For the next two days, our family was busy with moving grandpa's grave, and Joyce stayed by my mother's side all the time. What surprised me was that this beautiful girl was carrying a walkman all day long, no matter what. Why, a pair of earplugs are always hanging in my ears, I called her several times to help me get something, but I didn't hear it, it made me want to smash the Walkman.

On the night before the grave was moved, Fatty Guo came with gauze on his head and a large bag in his hand. The first sentence he said when he entered the door, he yelled, "Brother Jiu, you are so unkind, I am hospitalized!" How can I let you pay for the money." Then, he took 1 yuan and threw it into my hands.

I was stunned, and then I remembered that on the day I was discharged from the hospital, I paid a deposit of [-] yuan for Fatty Guo. After a long time of quarreling, Fatty Guo wanted to return the money to me, and said harsh words, not to accept the money, brother I had nothing to do, so in desperation, I had no choice but to accept it.

Originally, I had 1 yuan at home. I spent a lot of money on things in the past two days, and there was only some salary left. Even the red envelope money, my father and I were scratching our heads, thinking that the red envelope should be less. up.

Now Fatty Guo has refunded the 1 yuan, so that our family's economy is not so tight, and some living money can be sealed in red envelopes. This is the case for poor families. Whether it is white or red, the economic aspect will always be clear.
