Chapter 262 The best old man in the village
When I first arrived, I didn't pay much attention to the situation in the village, but now I see that there is a house shrouded in a faint gloomy aura.
Feng Zhi also saw it: "Why is there a yin energy?"
"Go and take a look and you'll know." Su Nuobai said as he walked towards the village.
Lu Heyu saw them walking towards the village: "What's wrong?"
"Something seems to be wrong with a family. Let's go and take a look." Su Nuobai said and walked away.
This family's house is the best in the village. It is made of blue bricks and large tiles, and is particularly conspicuous among the adobe houses.
When Diao Liangji came back from selling firewood, he saw a lot of officials standing under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, but he didn't dare to go over to look.
He returned to the village with an empty shoulder pole and saw Su Nuobai and the others standing in the village: "Master Su, why are you here?"
Su Nuobai turned to look at him: "Do you know who lives in this household?"
"Uncle Mao lives here alone. He has two sons and a daughter who are all very filial. Both sons are businessmen. He was asked to go to the city to live with them, but he didn't want to."
"So, the two of them pooled their money to build this big house for him in the village. Their children will come back to see him whenever they have time."
"He is the best-off old man in our village, and we envy him so much."
Diao Liangji's eyes were full of envy as he spoke.
"Go and notify his family to come back for the funeral!" Su Nuobai said lightly.
"Ah!" The envy on Diao Liangji's face had not yet faded, but when he heard the news, he was unable to react for a while.
"Master Su, you said Uncle Mao is gone?" asked the villagers around.
Su Nuobai nodded: "He probably died last night. Has anyone seen him this morning?"
The villagers looked at each other and finally shook their heads.
Someone also called the village head and knocked on Uncle Mao's door, but there was no response after knocking for a long time.
Then someone found a ladder and climbed in from the outside to open the gate.
By the time the villagers found Uncle Mao, he had already died in bed.
The head of the village and others looked at Su Nuobai with more respect. This Master Su was really amazing. He even knew that the person was dead.
"Stop watching and go prepare for the old man's funeral. You also have to notify his family members." Su Nuobai was speechless after being stared at.
"Yes, yes, yes." The village head quickly arranged for everyone to prepare for Uncle Mao's funeral.
Generally, when there is a wedding or funeral in the village, the villagers will help out together, and the preparations are quite efficient.
Su Nuobai looked at Uncle Mao who was standing and arguing with Old Yu, and felt a headache.
He called the two of them to a corner and asked, "Mr. Yu, what's going on?"
"He said there was something he hadn't told the children, and he refused to go with me no matter what." Old Yu felt a headache looking at Uncle Mao. This old man had a very stubborn temper.
They forcibly dragged him into the underworld, but he ran away before he even got inside.
Su Nuobai looked at Uncle Mao and asked, "What other wishes do you have?"
Uncle Mao didn't know Su Nuobai, and he hesitated and refused to say anything.
"Mr. Yu, you go back. I will send him down here when the time comes." Su Nuobai saw that the old man was very stubborn. If he was forced to go to the underworld, he would probably become a grudge.
Old Yu nodded: "Then I'll trouble you."
Su Nuobai waited until he left before looking at Old Yu: "Then you just wait, I've already sent someone to notify your son and the others."
"I heard the villagers calling you Master just now. You are Master Xuan, right?" Uncle Mao looked at her and asked.
Su Nuobai nodded: "Yes."
"Then can you let my child see me later?" Uncle Mao looked at her expectantly.
"Aren't you afraid of scaring them?" Su Nuobai thought the old man was quite interesting.
Uncle Mao thought about it and seemed to feel that it was not appropriate: "I just want to explain some things to them in person. I don't feel safe leaving it to others."
"Okay, it's okay if they are not afraid." After Su Nuobai said that, he asked Feng Zhi and the others to watch him to prevent his evil spirit from hurting others.
Uncle Mao's children all run small businesses in nearby towns and cities. They don't actually make much money on weekdays, but they are just slightly better off than the farmers in the village.
When the village head sent someone to inform them, both of them still looked incredulous.
"I went back to see my dad two days ago and he was fine. How could he just be gone like that?"
But when the two of them saw that the villagers did not seem to be joking and hurried back, they realized that their father was really gone.
The married daughter also rushed back in a hurry. When she entered the house and saw the dead Uncle Mao, she burst into tears.
Uncle Mao was so distressed watching from the side that he turned around anxiously: "Don't cry, don't cry, Dad didn't suffer."
But no matter what he said, the three children couldn't hear him.
Uncle Mao looked at Su Nuobai: "Master."
Su Nuobai walked up to the three of them and said, "Come with me."
The three of them heard on the way that it was Master Su who discovered that his father was dead. They had also heard of this Master Su.
"Master Su, what do you want from us?"
"Your father has something he wants to tell you in person. If you're not afraid, I'll let you meet him. If you're afraid, I'll let him tell you orally and I'll convey it."
Su Nuobai looked at the three people with red eyes crying.
"Master Su, please let us meet my father! I didn't even have the time to say goodbye to him." The three of them burst into tears when they thought of this.
Su Nuobai raised his hand and waved in front of the three people: "You have two quarters of an hour, so make it short."
After she finished speaking, she left the house, leaving time for Uncle Mao and his family.
Uncle Mao saw the three children and said, "Don't cry. Dad just hasn't explained some things to you, and I'm worried."
"Dad!" The three of them couldn't stop crying.
"I've kept all the money you gave me over the years, as well as the house and land deeds, and I've had no use for them. After my funeral, go get them from under the third slate tile at the foot of my bed."
"This money is divided among the three of you. Although your eldest sister is married, you still need to leave her some money for self-defense. You two brothers must take good care of her and make sure she doesn't get bullied."
"Also, if you don't come back in the future, don't keep the farmland, crops, and house at home. Sell them all for money, and you can live a more comfortable life."
"From now on, there will only be the three of you siblings. Don't be like others who quarrel over money. You must remember that only when brothers are united can they achieve great things."
"That's all I have to say. Live a good life from now on, and your mother and I will rest in peace in our graves."
After Uncle Mao finished speaking, he smiled and looked at the children. He wanted to reach out and touch their heads again, but he couldn't reach them anymore.
Su Nuobai calculated the time and came in: "Now that everything has been explained, it's time for me to send you to the underworld."
"Master Su, can you perform a ritual to help my father pass away?" The three people looked at Su Nuobai and asked.
