Funerals in neighboring villages are very lively, weddings and funerals are always a good time to gather together, even many relatives in this village who have relatives in neighboring villages also go to have a meal together, such events always have some banquets For noodles, with a handful of vegetables at home, you can eat with oil in your stomach.

The person who was going to be buried was an old man who was over eighty years old. There were many children and grandchildren in the family, and with the help of distant relatives and neighbors, this funeral was extremely lively.

The sound of the monk chanting scriptures accompanied by the sound of the suona can be heard across a small forest. Ji Mo hesitated when he was called to watch the excitement, but he got Uncle Li's consent, so he went to make a living with his short legs .

When eating at this kind of big table, it’s easy for children to shuttle around and eat. Ji Mo is a thief, he doesn’t want to eat other people’s saliva, and he guards the door of the kitchen to steal the dishes, as long as his hands and feet are quick , I can carry away a plate full of dishes, and when I meet someone, I can fool the person who only says to help serve the dishes.

After I was full, I just went to watch the fun, and I couldn't see the neat red coffin, which was buried in the soil, and even the two paper figurines went underground to serve.

There were many round tables in the big yard, and a group of people came and went like a running mat. The one who brought Ji Mo and the others was Huang Tao, the kid from the Huang family, the one who pushed Ji Mo down and lost his teeth. He has always been a leader in the village. The kid king of this age group is like a bandit in the Tiger Roaring Mountain Forest wherever he goes, with a group of younger brothers.

Ji Mo wasn't qualified to enter, he was young, and he didn't know how to do anything, and the older kids didn't like to take him to play, but Huang Tao was still young, and he caused others to lose their teeth, even if it wasn't his intention. I felt a little sorry, and later avoided the adults to find Ji Mo.

Ji Mo boasted that he was too old to hold grudges against children, and the other party didn't intentionally make him lose his teeth, and this matter ended after a meat bun.

Then, the two children didn't have much hatred, so Ji Mo became one of the younger brothers, and he would run around with the children in the village.

After Ji Mo finished eating by himself, he brought the plate to Huang Tao, "Eat quickly, I got it from the kitchen, no one has touched it." I don't count it, since I didn't eat much anyway.

Children were never allowed to sit at the table, Huang Tao and the others stood by the table, that is, before the next wave of people arrived and the last wave of people had just left, they could sit there and eat some leftovers , Seeing Ji Mo come over with a dish to show his merits, he didn't care that the dish was not full enough, so he grabbed it with several pairs of chopsticks.

"I can't see, you're pretty smart!"

Some people praised it, but they really didn't think of this idea, mainly because they were a little afraid of adults.

"Then, let's go get some more, these are all meatless."

Some people feel that eating is not enough.

These days, the family can only eat some meat when they have something to do during the New Year. There is no such thing as eating every day. That is, after Ji Mo followed Uncle Li, he can eat a few more meals of meat that no one is fighting for. It doesn’t take long, it seems Just got fatter, not looking like a starving ghost anymore.

"What do you take? If you take too much, you will be beaten if you are eye-catching."

Huang Tao was still a little clever, so he suppressed their thoughts, but he led a group of people to steal food. The joy after success was far greater than the satisfaction of being full.

There were too many times, and they were discovered later. A group of Piboys were chased by adults and ran for a certain distance. After leaving the compound, they laughed happily.

Ji Mo also laughed, and then saw the two young men, they were sitting at the door, as if they were entertaining guests, chatting under the tree.

Remembering what the third sister asked last time, Ji Mo hesitated for a moment, wanting to get closer to that side, but was dragged away by Huang Tao and the others.

I still have a little obsession with this matter when I go back. It would have been nice if I had asked in the past.

He was a man who could show his thoughts on his face if he had any concerns. Uncle Li saw it and asked. Ji Mo never kept a secret from him, and directly said things that he didn't have time to ask.

"Ask a fart, two diggers, what kind of people!"

Uncle Li was very disdainful, and directly sprayed him back.

Those who dig soil are grave robbers. If they are more elegant, they can also be called Tufuzi, but don’t expect to hear any nice words from Uncle Li. It sounds good.

Qiuxiangmeixiang, half a catty, tomb robbery is a job that is to kill children and grandchildren in the eyes of serious people, but in the eyes of the poor, it is actually a half catty thing. When farming and business can’t survive, digging graves is nothing. , using the money of the dead to live one's own life, from a certain point of view, it seems that there is a sense of rational allocation of resources.

It's dead, it's useless to ask for so much money, isn't it?

Ji Mo has no disdain for this profession. He is a materialist and does not believe in ghosts. From a rational point of view, it can only be said that people are forced to have no other way of life, and they have to do it as a last resort. , It's not worth promoting, but it's not a matter of life or death.

However, in ancient times, this matter was extremely strict, and anyone who found it was a capital offense.

Thinking about it, those two people are really not good candidates. If the death penalty is committed one day, won't they implicate the family?

"Ah, then can I tell Third Sister about this? So that she won't worry about it." Ji Mo didn't want to be killed because of this kind of relationship one day, and his mission has not been completed yet.

Uncle Li pondered for a while, then shook his head, "If the people don't raise their officials, they won't be investigated. If you let the word out about this kind of thing, everyone will be out of luck. Your third sister is young, so you will naturally forget it in two years. There is no need to say that." Too much, so that when something happens to them, they will find you."

Uncle Li was able to discover the other party's occupation by relying on his experience, not really having any evidence. If the limelight spread and things got bigger, the trouble would be his own in the end.

Ji Mo thought about it, and it was the same reason. In ancient times, no matter how early marriage and early childbearing were, there was no such thing as getting married at the age of 14. How can the third sister wait for two years? When she is fifteen or sixteen, those two don't know Where did he go? He wasn't from the neighboring village, he just came to help. After the matter was over, he would definitely leave.

With his thoughts settled, Ji Mo began to study his system tasks, and his current tasks have now changed.

[Current task: professional knowledge learning - (1/100)]

The main task remains the same, but the current task has changed since the last time I saw the paper-making. Specifically, I personally participated in the paper-making. Although Mr. Li gave few or no explanations, the tasks are arranged one by one. He participated in pasting the paper, and also carefully watched the process of binding the bamboo strips into a skeleton, as well as the final drawing and filling. He watched the whole process, which can be regarded as learning.

Teaching and learning is not simply book knowledge, but also includes oral description and practical hands-on. It should be like this. Therefore, there is a "1", which seems to be good, but the "100" makes people feel a little overwhelmed. Depressed.

A pair of children, boys and girls is considered "1", and "100" is one hundred pairs of children, boys and girls. Calculated according to the time of this work, it is about 20 days, let's count it as a month, only one, twelve a year Months, twelve a year, that one hundred will take eight or nine years, this does not rule out that some of them have headaches, or no old people died at all, or the years of war and famine...

Uncle Li is not fifty this year, and he is over 40. Even if he looks healthy and can live to be 80 years old, it doesn't mean that he will still pierce paper in another ten years. What if he doesn't?Is your study a waste of time?

Can I be a teacher at that time?

Thinking of this, Ji Mo felt a sense of urgency, and always wanted to do something quickly to speed up the process. First of all, he wanted to expand the scope of trading. There were only a few nearby villages, and the scope was still too small.

It would be great if I could go to the town. Many nearby villages will come and go to the town. There are many people in the town, and there are many rich people. It will cost a lot of money. Does Uncle Li have so much money to go there?

The problem of money is always a big problem. Ji Mo mentioned to go to the town a few times, and Uncle Li also satisfied him. He took him there twice. The town is indeed much more prosperous and rich. Ji Mo tentatively expressed his desire If you want to live in the town, you will definitely be able to make more money.

"If you have money, you can come and live here, but I don't have it." Uncle Li said a word back to him, money will defeat any idea.

The past few times were not in vain. He Laozhi, the paper seller in the town, introduced business to Uncle Li twice. They are all from the town, and they are considered rich. The virgin boys and girls can be considered high-end.

Ji Mo did it twice. The first time he used high-quality snowflake white paper, and he didn't use bamboo strips to make bones inside, but pure paper. After playing around for a while, looking at the final coloring and drawing, although I still feel that the red face hurts my eyes, I have to say that high-end is high-end, and the feeling is different.

Another time I used the paper made by Uncle Li himself. This time it was really fine from beginning to end, and even the paint was new. That’s it. Uncle Li was still not satisfied. Very good, can also be used for errands, worthy of the price.

After two rounds, Ji Mo was pleasantly surprised to find that the progress behind the current task did not go according to one-to-one pairs. The difficulty of these two times may have increased, and the progress has also been more. From this point of view, it is necessary to complete this major. Knowledge learning may not take a few years, as long as the difficulty is kept high.

It's a pity that in a full year, there were only those two times that were difficult, and the rest were almost the same as the first time. After those two times, He Laozhi took the introduction fee and publicized it Because otherwise, there are still some people nearby who can compete with Uncle Li.

Among other things, there is also a longevity material shop in the town, from coffin boards to wreaths, paper men, paper money, ingots, candles and incense, all in one package, most people also like to go there to buy, it is convenient and comprehensive, but Uncle Li This kind of doing the same alone is not so popular.
