Chapter 41: Bai Boan (Part 1)

Bai Juan was so angry that she stretched out her hand and slapped the back of Bai Boan’s head: “Whose grave did you to pee?”

Bai Boan covered the back of his head and curled his lips aggrievedly: “It’s Mr. Zhou’s family. Originally, father didn’t want to set up a tombstone. He ran to our old house to compare and then laughed at us for not setting up tombstones for our ancestors. Father and mother didn’t have the intention to discuss this for a while. It can be done next year, but he said that the family waiting for a year to set up tombstones is lacking filial piety.”

Seeing Bai Juan’s angry face, Bai Boan’s voice had a trace of strength: “Mr. Zhao watched father and mother discuss this matter, and then interrupted them and said that his family had a ready-made monument, which was originally ordered by someone else. The other party is not in a hurry to use it, so he can give it to us first, and then quote a price of 10, 000 yuan. Father wanted to agree, he became so anxious to build tombstones, but I stopped him.”

Bai Boyan looked at Bai Juan with a pitiful expression: “Aunty, you know, I am getting married to Xiao Ya at that time, I needed money everywhere. I don’t think it’s worth spending 10,000 yuan. Grandfather’s grave doesn’t have tombstone for more than 10 years, what’s more, great-grandfather died even earlier! He died more than 20 years ago. In the past, our ancestors were only covered with the straw mat. Who set up tombstone?”

Bai Juan looked up and said with gritted teeth: “But still, you shouldn’t have thought about urinating on other people’s graves!”

Bai Boan said angrily: “This is our family’s business, but Mr. Zhou went to our house and talked as if, if we didn’t build tombstone right away, our Bai Family’s are great sinners. Later, after I chased him out, I went to some familiar aunt’s house in the village to ask about it. I learned that Mr. Zhou cut some corners and used low-grade level stones to build monuments for others. The owner of that tombstone came to check the material before it was engraved, he didn’t like it so he didn’t buy it. Then Mr. Zhou went to our house and wanted us to take it. Not only he wanted us to buy that poor-quality tombstone, but he also doubled the amount. How can he so immoral.”

Bai Juan also felt angry after hearing it. If it was the usual time, she would have put her hand on her waist and scolded Mr. Zhou and his eighteen generations of the ancestor. But now, it was not the time to care about this, his nephew has bad luck and going to die soon.

“Did you urinate in front of his ancestor’s grave?”

Bai Boyan shrank his neck: “His ancestral grave is not too far away from ours. I saw it when I passed by during the day. I went to his father’s grave at night…”

Bai Juan almost fainted when she heard it. This was her own nephew. If it was someone else, she would definitely say that he deserved it.

“Little Master, didn’t you say that there are basically no ghosts or undead in our cemetery? What’s happened to my nephew?”

Lin Qingyin said helplessly: “The cemetery belongs to yin. Is the scope of the cemetery in your hometown very large?”

Bai Juan nodded awkwardly: “The ancestral tombs of every family are basically connected in a piece of land. Except for those who have moved away over the years, there are still hundreds of graves…”
