Grave Robber: I became a mortician

Chapter 156 Punish Lao Hu for Kneeling on the Washboard

"Ha ha!"

Seeing that there was no one around, Shirley Yang purposely glanced at Hu Bayi's legs.

"111? Are you this big? It's probably bragging, but the truth is like a toothpick."

Being underestimated, Hu Bayi immediately became impatient: "Do you want to find a place to try? However, mine is very big, you have to bear with it!"

Shirley Yang slammed on the brakes, and Hu Bayi almost lost his balance and was thrown out of the car.

"So don't look for a place anymore, or just in the car, just let others see, is it really big?"

Shirley Yang is bold, but Hu Bayi is a little timid.

It's fine if Blind Chen can't see, but Ye Yun and Fatty are his brothers, if they show their brothers in front of them, Hu Bayi will want to die.

"Just kidding, don't take it seriously!" Hu Bayi concealed his embarrassment.

"Lao Ye, fat man, let's go, we have to walk next time, we have to hurry, otherwise if we don't arrive after dark, it will be very dangerous to rest in the woods at night."

Hu Bayi quickly changed the subject, picked up his luggage and got out of the car.

Hu Bayi led Ye Yun and the others into the nearby forest.

Under the leadership of Hu Bayi, Ye Yun and the others walked in the forest for about two hours and came to a valley.

It is very strange that there is an inn in the valley.

"This place is called Zhelong Mountain. The Wuding Jinxian fragrant tea grown here is famous and tastes good. It is irrigated by the melted snow from the snow-capped mountains. Every year when tea is picked, tea merchants will come to buy it."

"This inn was opened by my comrades-in-arms and their family. They entertain tea merchants every year and earn some hard money."

While introducing, Hu Bayi brought Ye Yun and the others to the front of the inn.

It is said to be an inn, but it is actually more like the kind of farmhouse that will be popular 30 or [-] years later.

That is to say, on the gate, there is a signboard of 'Colorful Cloud Inn'.

In front of the gate, there is a long table with some local specialties, tea, herbs and so on.

At this time, a little girl of sixteen or seventeen saw someone coming, and ran out of the house excitedly to entertain the guests.

"Brother Hu!"

Seeing that Hu Bayi was the leader, the little girl became even more excited, and rushed towards Hu Bayi with surprise on her face.

"Ha ha!"

Seeing this scene, Shirley Yang sneered, and said jealously: "Brother Hu, you are so affectionate, no wonder you are bragging about yourself, did you let her try your toothpick too?"

Seeing Shirley Yang misunderstood and jealous, Hu Bayi was actually a little happy.

After all, if a woman is willing to be jealous of you, it proves that she must care about you in her heart.

While Hu Bayi was happy, he quickly explained: "You misunderstood, she is the younger sister of my comrade-in-arms, her name is Peacock."

"Since the death of my comrade-in-arms, I have taken time to visit his family every year. I regard her as my own sister."

"Besides, she's not yet an adult. If anyone dares to touch an underage, I'll be the first to kill him."

Hearing Hu Bayi's explanation, Xue Liyang finally turned the cloud into sunshine, and at the same time said affirmatively: "That's right, anyone who dares to touch an underage should die."

While the two were talking, the peacock had already come to Hu Bayi, and said excitedly: "Brother Hu, you are finally here, do you know that I dreamed about you last night..."

Hearing what Peacock said, Shirley Yang's expression changed again.

Hu Bayi knew something was wrong, so he quickly changed the subject: "By the way, is your sister-in-law at home?"

"exist!"

The peacock called out quickly: "Sister-in-law, Brother Hu is here!"

Following the peacock's call, a young woman walked out of the inn, only 27 or [-] years old.

"Old Hu, you are here again!"

When the young woman saw Hu Bayi, she also smiled.

"You are in the capital, and you still trek across mountains and rivers every year to come to our Yunnan. It's been a hard journey. It's better to come here less in the future."

Hu Bayi shook his head: "It's okay, just treat it as a tour, and I promised Shuanzi to take good care of you."

Hearing Hu Bayi say Shuanzi's name, the smile on the young woman's face disappeared and she became a little sad.

Hu Bayi knew that this was his quick talk and mentioned the woman's sadness.

That Shuanzi was Hu Bayi's comrade-in-arms, but unfortunately he died, and his poor newlywed wife also became a widow.

It is not ancient times now, and women are not required to observe festivals for their dead husbands. This woman is not only young, but also beautiful. It stands to reason that it is no problem to find a man.

But at that time, Shuanzi's younger sister, Peacock, was still young. In order to raise her, the woman chose to stay, maintain the inn, and raise Peacock.

Seeing the sadness on the woman's face, Hu Bayi quickly apologized: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, it's all my fault!"

The woman forced a smile: "It's nothing, by the way, you must be tired after coming all the way, Peacock, hurry up and pour tea, I'll go to the kitchen and prepare food for you."

Peacock invited everyone into the inn and immediately made a cup of tea for everyone.

It's not time to pick tea yet, so there are basically no guests, and the whole inn looks very deserted.

Hu Bayi fumbled in his pocket, only found a few tens of dollars in change, and immediately looked at Shirley Yang, who was the richest among all the people.

"Sydney, do you have any money with you? Lend me some."

"This time it was too urgent, I didn't have time to go to the bank to withdraw money."

Xue Liyang knew that Hu Bayi was going to help the widow of his comrade-in-arms, so he was very generous. He opened his wallet and took out several thousand yuan and one or two thousand dollars.

"These should be enough for the two of them to live for a year and a half, right?"

Fortunately, at this time, money is still very valuable. In the 80s, most people's monthly salary was only one or two hundred at most.

Hu Bayi wanted to give the money to the woman and Peacock, but seeing such a huge sum of money all of a sudden, the woman and Peacock were unwilling to accept it.

"No, brother Hu, your money is too much, we can't accept it."

"Yes, Lao Hu, every time you come, I am both happy and scared. I am glad that you can still come to see us."

The widow of the comrade-in-arms said: "What is scary is that you bring us things and money every time you come. It is not easy for you to make money, and you are not married yet. You should save the money and marry a wife!"

The fat man said in time: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry about it. Our old Hu is very capable. This money was given by his future wife, so you can keep it!"

The fat man said, and glanced at Shirley Yang: "If you don't accept it, Lao Hu's future wife will be unhappy, and Lao Hu will probably be fined to kneel on the washboard!"

Hearing what Fatty said, the widow of his comrade-in-arms smiled and looked at Shirley Yang immediately.

"Lao Hu is so lucky to have found such a beautiful wife."

Looking at Shirley Yang, Peacock, who was originally happy, suddenly looked disappointed.
