Chapter 51 I'm a good person
Chapter 51 I'm a good person
"Junior brother, please stay a few more days. You have come here with great difficulty, so you should let me show my hospitality..."
In the early morning before dawn, Uncle Jiu's sincere, cordial and earnest voice of seeking retention was heard from the charity cemetery.
However, Taoist Simu looked at Uncle Nine who was holding his arm and not letting him go, with a look of rejection on his face:
"No, Senior Brother, I still can't. Jiale is waiting for me at home. If I go back late, Jiale will be worried..."
Seeing that no matter how much he tried to persuade his junior brother to stay here for a few more days, Uncle Jiu sighed helplessly:
"Well, since you insist on leaving, I won't try to stop you. Have a pleasant journey, brother!"
Hearing Uncle Jiu's words, Taoist Simu couldn't help but twitch his lips, and then shook the copper bell in his hand very firmly:
"Ding-ling-ling~ Folks, it's time to go home~"
"go!"
As Taoist Simu rang the bell, the zombies that were hammering nails immediately put down their tools:
"...Bang!"
Then they quickly lined up, as if they were afraid of being left behind.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
The rows of zombies seemed to be a little more listless than when Taoist Simu first arrived.
"Folks, dance with me!"
"I jump, I jump, I jump, jump, jump!"
Holding a lotus lantern in his left hand and shaking the Sanqing Bell in his right hand, Taoist Simu ran towards the distant forest at an extremely fast speed.
The zombies behind him also followed him quickly and lightly, running away as if there was a great terror behind them.
Seeing that it was still dark, Taoist Simu and the other zombies left without waiting until dark.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, who heard the noise, held hammers and nails, and watched Taoist Simu leave from afar, their eyes full of reluctance:
"Why did Master Uncle leave like this? Why didn't he stay in our charity cemetery for a few more days?"
After hearing Qiu Sheng's words, Wencai nodded, and then said with a look of regret:
"Yes, Master. If Master Simu had left one day later, our charity cemetery could have been completely renovated."
"Master Simu is so amazing. He alone is as effective as the entire renovation team in our town, and he is even more efficient than them."
"Now that Master Uncle has left, we will have to do the rest. Master, why don't you keep Master Uncle for another day..."
When he finished speaking, Wencai looked at Uncle Jiu beside him with a very resentful look.
Seeing Wencai's face full of resentment, Uncle Jiu's expression suddenly became serious, and then he slapped Wencai on the head:
"You kid, if you don't work hard, do you still want your uncle to help you do all the work for you?"
"Your uncle has helped you complete most of this huge project, why are you still not satisfied?"
"Okay, there are only some minor details left. You and Qiu Sheng can work together to finish it today."
"After we finish our work, we'll take a day off and I'll take you out to play so you can all get out and broaden your horizons..."
Although he was scolding Wencai, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but reveal a hint of regret in his eyes.
What a pity, what a pity.
If I had known earlier, I should have let Simu take advantage of the first day he arrived to command the zombies to work. What a waste of a day.
After hearing Uncle Jiu's words, Wencai, who had just been trembling and cowering beside him, suddenly jumped up excitedly:
"Really? Master, are you really going to take me out to play? That's great. I've never been out of Renjia Town since I was a child. I can finally go out and broaden my horizons!" Not only Wencai, but even Qiu Sheng, who had already guessed that they were going to Tengteng Town, couldn't help but feel a little excited at this moment.
After all, we're going out of town to have fun.
Although the fun was just a side activity, it was enough to make him happy.
Seeing Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai being motivated by his encouragement, Uncle Jiu nodded seriously:
"Do your best, and I'll take you out to play when you're done!"
After hearing what the master said, Wencai became motivated and started hammering everywhere with the small hammer in his hand. He looked very excited.
Suddenly, I was really encouraged by Uncle Jiu!
However, when Uncle Jiu looked at Qiu Sheng, he was surprised to find that Qiu Sheng was not working hard, but was fiddling with his bicycle:
"Qiu Sheng, what are you doing?"
When he said this, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but reveal a hint of curiosity.
It makes no sense!
Normally, with such encouragement from him, shouldn't Qiu Sheng be as excited as Wencai and want to use all his strength to work? Why is he so abnormal today?
Hearing Uncle Jiu's question, Qiu Sheng, who had already taken off the two wheels of the bicycle, answered while busying himself:
"When Tingting was here, I learned from her that there is a thing called a wheelchair in Western countries, which is specially prepared for elderly people with mobility problems."
"I thought a wheelchair is a chair with wheels, so I planned to use my bicycle to make a seat for my seventh uncle."
"Next we have to go to Teng Teng Town. It's such a long journey, and it's more comfortable to sit in a wheelchair than to walk all the time..."
After hearing Qiu Sheng say this, Uncle Jiu, who was just curious about what Qiu Sheng was tinkering with, suddenly turned pale.
Good, good, good boy!
When you get such a good thing, you don't think of your master first, but instead give that old guy one to sit on.
Okay, okay, you are the only one who is filial!
Thinking of this, Uncle Jiu subconsciously looked towards the recliner next to him with a gloomy face.
At this moment, Song Feng, who was lying on the recliner, also turned his head and looked in the direction of Uncle Jiu:
"Hehehehe..."
After hearing the words that just came to my ears, I looked at the smiling old guy opposite me. At this moment, that smile was becoming more and more dazzling.
At this time, Qiu Sheng, who was busy modifying the wheelchair, did not realize that because of his words, his two elders were jealous of each other.
However, he did not subconsciously add fuel to the fire at this time. He just looked at Uncle Jiu next to him as if he suddenly remembered something:
"By the way, Master, according to the estimated time, will Tingting be able to arrive at the port today and get on the ship in the afternoon?"
After hearing what Qiu Sheng said, Uncle Jiu instantly became serious and then pinched his left hand:
"If there is no delay on the way, Tingting should be resting in the inn near the port now."
When he said this, Uncle Jiu looked at Song Feng beside him with emotion.
Although this old guy doesn't look like a good person, he still has some principles in his way of doing things.
Just the expansion of the temple at least saved Ren Tingting one thousand yuan in "family extinction fee".
If it weren't for this old guy, even if he showed up, Ren Tingting probably wouldn't be able to leave Renjia Town so safely.
Facing Uncle Jiu's gaze, Song Feng smiled even more kindly. After all, he was a "good man"!
