In the next few days, Zhao Youliang was in a state of confusion, as if he was a walking corpse without a soul.
Mechanically, he burned paper for Grandma Wen Mi during the daytime wake, and at night the mayor sent someone to forcibly send her back to the paper-making shop.
Fortunately, out of habit, he was able to burn incense and offer offerings to the two dolls on time like a machine.
During this period, Huang Jiaxian never came back. Xiongba and the others didn't know what happened to Granny Mi that night, and they were stupid.
The main reason is that Xiong Ba is stupid. As for Chang Jie... he still only says, "My parents are both dragons, but I am a maggot. How can this make sense..."
So I was just anxious and didn't know how to persuade Zhao Youliang; how to cheer him up again.
This state lasted until Granny Mi was buried. Zhao Youliang finally felt better under the persuasion of Mrs. Yingchun.
However, these seven days of hard work had made him noticeably thinner.
The whole person seemed to be seriously ill, and he was particularly unenergetic.
While drinking the egg and lean meat porridge specially cooked for him by Mrs. Yingchun, Zhao Youliang remembered another important person - Shopkeeper Sun.
"Sister, where is Uncle Sun? Why haven't I seen him these days?"
"It stands to reason that in this last scene for my mother-in-law, he won't miss her."
At this point, Zhao Youliang stopped suddenly and jumped up from the stool.
"Uncle Sun, isn't he sick? Is he seriously ill?!"
"No, I have to go over quickly and take a look!"
Mrs. Yingchun, who was busy, saw this and quickly held Zhao Youliang down.
"What are you thinking about? Uncle Sun is fine. He seems to have gone out."
"Oh, by the way, this is his letter to you."
"You've been living like a ghost these past few days, so I'm not in a hurry to show you."
After receiving the letter, Zhao Youliang hurriedly opened it.
For some reason, he suddenly had an extremely bad feeling in his heart.
In the letter, shopkeeper Sun just said that he had gone to work for Zhao Youliang and accompanied the corpse exorcists, and he would be back in seven days at most or one day at least.
If he really cannot come back, all his family property will be inherited by Zhao Youliang.
At the end of the letter, he explained in detail where the bank card was, where the house deed was, the bank card password, etc.
Of course, all of the above are duplicates.
One belongs to shopkeeper Sun, and the other is for Granny Mi.
Next to the signature of the letter, in words that can only be seen by those with Yin and Yang eyes, there is this sentence:
Quantum, you are an honest boy.
My uncle and my old sister are both gone. I am just worried that you will suffer a loss.
Remember what my uncle said: There are no good people in this town!
Just in case...just in case you can escape the entanglement of the paper shop, remember to leave here quickly.
Go as far as possible and never come back!
After reading this will-like letter, Zhao Youliang burst into tears again.
Counting the days, today happens to be the eighth day since Shopkeeper Sun left.
So... wouldn't it mean that he is in danger and will never come back? !
As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Youliang, who was already extremely weak, immediately fainted.
The frightened Mrs. Yingchun quickly called for help from her neighbors, and together they treated Zhao Youliang.
I don't know how long it took, but when Zhao Youliang woke up again, what came into view was the big yellow dog's face.
When their eyes met, both sides were shocked by the other's ugliness.
So they all turned their heads and rubbed their eyes in disgust.
"Gou, Brother Gou, thank you for staying with me." After a moment, Zhao Youliang, who realized that he had lost two relatives, couldn't help but take the initiative to ease the relationship.
Unexpectedly, the big yellow dog didn't appreciate it. He didn't even pay attention to the guy, and just went to the street to tease the bitch while wagging his big butt.
As soon as the big yellow dog left, Mrs. Yingchun walked in with hot soup.
Seeing Zhao Youliang wake up, his face was full of surprise.
"Oh, Quantum, you're awake! You've been unconscious for half a day, but you've made the mayor and the others anxious!"
Mrs. Yingchun's words made Zhao Youliang a little confused: "Mayor? I don't know him well. Why is he anxious?"
Mrs. Yingchun sneered, obviously looking down on the mayor and others.
"What else is there to be anxious about? There is no one to care about the paper shop and no one is offering incense!"
"What else do you think?"
"If it weren't for this, they wouldn't even ask if you were dead!"
"I have seen through this group of people..."
Before Mrs. Yingchun finished speaking, she heard the mayor's voice coming from the back door.
"Eldest niece, what have you seen at such a young age? Can you tell me if you can?"
As he was talking, the mayor and several representatives with big surnames walked in.
Of course, they all went through the back door... As for the front door of the paper shop, even if they were killed, they wouldn't dare to get too close.
Even though they saw all the big shots coming, the aggressive Mrs. Yingchun still didn't give them a good look.
And he said angrily: "As a widow, what else can I see through this family?"
"See through that some people are worse than dogs!"
After saying that, he twisted his slim waist and plumped up his hips and continued busy, leaving only the mayor and others looking at each other in confusion.
Fortunately, Zhao Youliang was there, and she didn't want Mrs. Yingchun to offend these "real power" figures, so she hurriedly stood up to greet her.
"Here are the leaders? Come in and sit down quickly!"
"My house is dirty and I don't like to clean it up. Just don't mind me."
Upon hearing this, the mayor quickly put down the canned yellow peach he was carrying and pretended to come over to help Zhao Youliang.
"Quantum, please stop being so busy. Are you feeling better?"
"I heard that you were sick, so we brothers decided to come over and take a look."
When Zhao Youliang heard this, he pretended to be flattered.
It wasn't that he knew the inside story behind Granny Mi's death, but that Mrs. Yingchun had just told the mayor about the real purpose of coming to see him.
"Why did my minor illness alarm several leaders? It's a sin."
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I'll just rest for three or two days!"
What followed was a burst of awkward chatting that was not nutritious at all. Readers who have experienced similar things should have a deep understanding of this.
After a while, a middle-aged man finally couldn't help himself and revealed the true purpose of his trip.
"What's the quantum? Because Granny Liu left in a hurry this time, she still has 20,000 yuan left with us."
"You are her heir, and we sent you the money specially."
There is a hidden hint in the book: The reason why the promise to the old man was changed from 200,000 to 20,000 is because there is no evidence to prove it.
Therefore, this group of unscrupulous people discussed in private and simply gave Zhao Youliang a discount - until he was "broken"!
Just like that, it suddenly went from 200,000 to 20,000!
Although Zhao Youliang didn't know the specific inside details, he vaguely felt that he couldn't accept the money, even if he was beaten to death!
So I tried my best to shirk it and found various reasons to shirk it.
Seeing Zhao Youliang giving up life and death, the mayor and others felt happy: Wouldn't this be better?
They even saved 20,000 yuan!
Feeling happy in his heart, he praised Zhao Youliang fiercely.
What a modern good young man, a role model for the residents of the town, etc.
If it weren't for the serious age discrepancy, Zhao Youliang would have been praised as a good student and an outstanding young pioneer...
