How easy is it to bury a corpse?

When a person dies, he always needs to have a coffin to hold a corpse. If the broken coffin is one, he will have to pay five taels of silver. If both parents die, two coffins will cost ten taels.

If the funeral is in a hurry, I can’t save money by asking someone to dig a pit to build a grave. Then the problem arises, how many taels of silver will be needed for the wages.

Money, money, a rush.

Jiao Jiao and Jiao Sheng searched for two broken straw mats and barely covered their bodies for their parents, and then sat in the room and cried to each other.

Where can I get the extra money from the family except for the four walls?

The girl walked in, and wrote a word on the ground with a charred branch in her hand. Jiaosheng wiped away his tears, looked at the word and said, "Sell!"

Jiao Jiao was furious when she heard this: "What did she write?"

"Sell." Jiao Sheng repeated.

Jiao Jiao also went up to see the words on the ground. Jiao Sheng had known the words with the husband in the village. Jiao Jiao's words were taught by Jiao Sheng after learning them from his husband, so he also recognized some words. The words on the ground were very neat, and they were indeed sold characters.

Jiao Sheng murmured: "Selling oneself to bury your father, this is indeed what the opera is singing..." Then the thin boy raised his pretty face and looked at his sister waterily...

Jiao Jiao suddenly burst into tears: "Selling your body to bury you a big-headed ghost! This mute, what bad idea is going on! I don't want to sell myself! If my parents were alive, they wouldn't agree to let me sell myself. If I sell myself, it would be a shame for my family..."

The girl shook her head speechlessly, "If your parents are alive, who will you be buried in the world?"

The girl lowered her head and wrote two words on the branches.

Jiao Jiao completely jumped: "You mute, what are you writing nonsense! I said I don't want to sell yourself!"

"Jiao Jiao, Aying is not saying to sell you, she is saying to sell dowry."

Jiao Sheng looked at the words written by the girl on the ground using branches, so neat and so beautiful, and it was better than the teacher's writing.

dowry!

Jiao Jiao jumped up in shock, it would be better to sell her.

The dowry was bought for her by her parents for many years, just to make her living expenses when she married into the Ding family one day. The Ding family is a rich man with a radius of hundreds of miles. His son looked for flowers and asked about them. If he hadn't had the disease of flowers and willows, how could he marry her with the Jiao family? So what if he had the disease of flowers and willows? Hasn't it been cured? He was a serious young lady after marrying himself, and had a group of maids and servants serving him! From then on, he got rid of the life of a lower-middle peasant, and flew up to the branches and turned into a phoenix, but now this mute actually made her sell... the dowry!

Jiao Jiao looked at the girl hatefully.

The girl's pale face looked at Jiao Jiao with big black and white eyes, which made her feel unfilial, making her feel that not selling her dowry is unfilial.

"You mute, what do you think! If you want to sell you, I won't sell your dowry!" Jiao Jiao shouted guiltily.

The girl lowered her head and wrote a few words. Jiao Sheng said as she wrote quietly: "You don't need it..."

As soon as Jiao Sheng finished speaking, a noisy sound rang outside the door.

"Who is here?" Jiao Jiao asked vigilantly, with a frightened expression on her face.

Jiao Sheng looked at the girl and said, "A Ying, stay here and don't move, I'll go out and take a look."

The girl nodded quietly and watched the siblings walk out cowardly.

For some reason, a feeling of pity surged in the girl's heart.

The children who lose their parents are like young swallows who have lost their shade.

Thinking of his parents, a clear pain flashed through the girl's heart. The pain was like a sharp knife stabbing, causing her whole body to twitch.

The girl held the table with one hand, held the chest with the other, and bit her lips, as if she was trying to suppress the heartache and prevent it from flooding her limbs.

Jiao Jiao hysterical screams came from outside: "Why should I break off the engagement? Why should I break off the engagement? I don't agree to break off the engagement!"

Jiao Jiao thought in panic: The stinky mute said that the dowry was to be sold because she didn't need it anymore, and the Ding family really broke the engagement. This stinky mute was simply a crow's mouth!

"Our Ding family wants to break off the engagement, and you Jiao family can't let it go!" a man shouted fiercely.

Then several men shouted together: "Submit the wedding letter! If you don't hand it over, you will smash your house!"

"Don't hit my sister!" Jiao Sheng's voice.

"Don't hit my brother..." Jiao Jiao cried.

There was already a mess outside crying, and several men with thick waists and round arms surrounded a pair of weak siblings, fierce and evil spirits, just like Vajras.

"Swoosh" several green lights flashed, and several men screamed and then fell to the ground.

Jiao Jiao and Jiao Sheng were holding each other and curled up together to prepare for the beating. The hitter suddenly fell down and fell to the ground one by one, grinning. There was a blood mark on each of them on their faces, with bloodstains seeping through them.

Jiao Sheng was confused, Jiao Jiao grabbed his clothes and pointed under the eaves, looking shocked.

Jiao Sheng followed Jiao Jiao's fingers and saw the person standing under the corridor, and said in a lost voice: "A Ying..."

With Jiao Sheng's call, Jiao Jiao saw clearly that the man was actually the mute! Just after a glance, she was frightened by the mute and shuddered. Her whole body was filled with murderous aura, and the expressionless face was filled with coldness and indifference.

Could it be that this mute injured these men?

This thought flashed through Jiao Jiao's mind and was immediately denied by herself.

How is this mute... possible?

The men of the Ding family have already climbed up from the ground one after another. They look at me and I look at you, staring at you, making it incredible. Who injured them just now?

In this yard, except for this sibling, the girl under the roof.

Could it be that girl? How is it possible?

This thought flashed through the men's minds, but they immediately rejected it.

The girl stood so far. If it were her, what weapon would she use to hurt them?

The cold and painful feeling of the blades on their faces, and the men still felt scared when they thought about it.

What weapon is that powerful?

The girl had no weapons in her hand, only a branch, burnt and black branches.

The girl took the branch and pointed at the man who pointed at him and signaled him to come over.

The man who was doing this was still hesitating, and the girl had already lowered her head and wrote on the ground with branches.

When Jiao Sheng saw the girl for some reason, he suddenly calmed down. He plucked up the courage to shout at the man who was doing, "What are you still standing there? A Ying asked you to go over, she has something to say to you!"

The man who was sent to the devil came over.

The girl had already written the words and looked up. Although her fair face was not blood-colored, her black and white eyes were full of agility, like a deep pool, and she fell into it with a glance.

"Boss, what did she write?" the men asked the man for what they wanted.

The man who was looking at the ground and recited: "Pay money with one hand and break the engagement with the other!"

The man understood the girl's meaning, and instantly distorted his eyebrows and raised his tone: "Did you, the yellow-haired girl, say that you want our Ding family to pay the money before you can hand over the marriage letter?"

The girl nodded lightly, as quiet as the wind.

"Who from Jiao's family dares to bargain..."

The girl suddenly threw away the branches in her hand, raised one hand, and a leaf was sandwiched between her index finger and middle finger.

The girl's brows frowned slightly, indicating that she was angry.

The black and white eyes covered the agile light and covered it with a layer of murderous intent.

The man gasped: The weapon turned out to be leaves!

No wonder there were a few green lights. Jiao Sheng was excited to think.

The men covered their scratched faces and retreated one after another. The pain that was like a blade sank into the skin had not yet disappeared...

The girl moved her fingers gently, and the leaves flew out like arrows between her fingers. When passing by the men's heads, accompanied by the strange sound of wind, which made the men instinctively shorten their heads.

When the men touched their heads and confirmed that it was still on their necks, the leaves had already sank into the trunk of the lightning-striped tree.

Everyone was so quick that there was such a unique art in the world!

Jiao Sheng was completely let go now, and his timidity was swept away. He shouted to the men: "You are just the minions of the Ding family and you can't make the decision. Let's go back and report to you Master Ding quickly. Pay the money with one hand and the marriage letter with the other. As for the amount of money..."

Jiao Sheng glanced at the girl and stretched out five fingers: "It costs at least five hundred taels!"
