Chapter 62 Farewell
  I paused in taking out the money and turned to look outside the courtyard.

The person who spoke out was Aunt Zhou who didn't know when she would be back, that is, the married daughter of the Zhou family whose natal family was bitten by a ghost baby.

At this time, she was wearing linen and mourning, and her eyes were red. It was obvious that she had just returned from a funeral. When she saw me looking at her, she spat hard on the ground:
  "Shameless thing!"

"It would be great if you married my nephew! In this way, my brother and my nephew will not die, and that bitch will not see my brother dead and fight for property with my mother, and the two of them will not poison each other. Gone!"

"It's all your fault! You said you don't want a man and won't marry my nephew, but you licked your face and found a decent-looking man to sleep with. You take the things that others give you every day. Damn you! How shameless!"

It turns out that several members of the Zhou family are dead. This is the rare good news in the past half month.

This family was full of evil, yet they died so easily.
  I thought they would come and cry and beg a few times in the end until they couldn't be saved?
  Aunt Zhou yelled angrily:

"It's not dark yet, so I dragged the man towards the house! I can't tell you how many times I've slept with this man! I must tell all this today so that everyone knows what you are like. The goods——”

Aunt Zhou's words stopped abruptly, and she pointed at the open door of the Zhi Ma Xiang Shop behind me with wide eyes. She was speechless for a long time.

Gong Shuji also turned his head and glanced at the main room, but when he turned his head, I had already noticed that Xiao Shishi's breath disappeared into the altar.

I pretended to pick up Gong Shuji's arm:
  "Brother, you see, she has already discovered it. We don't have to pretend anymore. It's better to choose a different day. You can stay here, right?"

Gong Shuji was stunned by my move. It wasn't until I pushed him into the main room and locked the door that he finally came to his senses:
  ".Little white girl, this is not a joke."

Gong Shuji kept retreating, holding up a gesture of surrender, with a helpless but sincere smile on his face:

"Don't do anything stupid."

I glanced at him, took out the money I carried with me, counted enough and put it in his hand:
  "I know, but I don't want to show off my wealth. I don't want to count the money in front of the old lady."

"The last eight urns have been received. I will bury the last few skeletons tomorrow. I will leave this village and go to the town to open a shop. I still have some things that I would like you to help pack."

Gong Shuji was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said:
  "It turns out he is really a long-term worker."

"Okay, fortunately you said it today, I have to leave tomorrow too."

gone?

I was stunned when I saw Gong Shuji put the small items that could be packed into various boxes according to my instructions, and folded the chairs, while nodding and saying:

"Yes, my father and I are leaving."

Seeing that the past half month has been calm and the second uncle can't be found, so he is ready to leave?
  Doesn't that mean that my second uncle will come back to me soon?

My heart moved slightly, and I quickly took out a hundred yuan and wanted to hand it to someone, but I found that the other person was bending down to move something. I don’t know what kind of brain I used at that moment, but I moved my fingers and took advantage of him bending down again. With a little effort, he stuffed it into the opponent's collar:

"Well done, here's a tip for you."

Gong Shuji, a man over 1.8 meters tall, was directly stunned to the spot by the power of this one hundred yuan. With my not very sensitive sense, I could detect the sound of him being petrified from top to bottom.

After realizing it, I felt a little embarrassed and immediately started to pack away the bottles and cans.

Gong Shuji took a long time to lift up the hem of his clothes, took out the one hundred yuan from his clothes, and pondered for a long time:

"It looks a bit like an irregular place, rewarding irregular practitioners."

"But if I go to sea, the money will be a bit short."

In half a month, this was the first time I heard Gong Shuji say such words.

He is different from the quiet and calm little carpenter he was when he was with his father, and he is also different from the gentle demeanor that he used to do Tai Chi when talking.

At this time, he looks more like a young man of this age group. He has many jokes that young people are familiar with, and he can also speak a little pornographically. I am really happy too:

"I thought you looked like someone who would angrily denounce such behavior."

Gongshuji shook his head:

"That's not the case."

"If my father hadn't insisted on taking me to find someone for revenge, I would have been in graduate school, and in fact I would have been just an ordinary student."

"I think you are about the same age. Have you also given up your studies?"

I nodded and didn't elaborate.

In fact, when my second uncle sent me a message asking me to come back, I had already applied for suspension of study.

Whether you want to go there or not depends on when your second uncle comes back.

Gong Shuji smiled again and handed the banknote back:
  "Then you have more opportunities to spend money than me. Although it is a pity, I do not plan to continue my studies in the future. My father is also old. This time when I return to Wangcheng, I plan to learn the craft from him and open a shop instead of going out. gone."

It is very consistent with my impression of Gong Shuji from being in contact with him for the past half month. He is gentle, humble and happy-go-lucky.

But I do sincerely want to give the other person money.

Especially the news that the other party is leaving is simply too good for me.

I can almost conclude that the second uncle will definitely come back after the other party leaves. There is no reason to take back the money given out of joy.

The two of us tried to shirk it, but I really couldn't stand it, so I accepted the hundred and handed him fifty:

"Then half for each person, it's fair."

Gongshuji also laughed, and finally accepted the fifty yuan, helped me with the work for five hours, and called a taxi to deliver all kinds of things to the town before returning home.

Knowing that the other party was leaving, I felt my breathing became much easier.

On the second day, I walked much faster on the mountain road carrying eight urns and eight skeletons.

When I walked to the entrance of the Wan Cave, I was able to adjust myself.

Sure enough, as soon as today's eight corpses arrived, without me needing to name them, a large number of ghost babies rushed towards their mother's bones.

A few ghost babies shouted happily, while more ghost babies let out harsh cries.

The scene fell into chaos for a time, and even the screams of the bloated ghost babies had no effect. The ghost babies almost went berserk several times.

When the time came, I took advantage of the situation and offered to send them to death. Seeing that no one was waiting for them, a large number of ghost babies could only agree with tears.

Today, the three kilns are almost unoccupied, and batches of corpses of ghost babies are being taken out for cremation.

I worked almost all day before sending all the ghost babies in the potholes to death.

Until the last one——

I wiped the sweat off my head, raised my head and caught my eye with the lone distended ghost baby hanging on the stone wall.

She seemed to have something to say. Did she not want to die?
