Chapter 470: Muddled Ghost
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lull was filial. She was afraid that Mrs. Way would be too tired from accompanying through the night, so she did not let her go over at night. The original plan was for Lull and Gran to take turns keeping watch, but Gran said that he would be tired from working during the day, so he did not keep watch. He let her, an old woman, go. He said that it was fine to keep watch. She would just sleep in the hospital. Mr. Way had the same idea. Later, it was Lull who felt sorry for her mother and went to keep watch alone, staying up every day.
Mrs. Way: “If Lull heard what you said just now, wouldn’t she be sad?” If not for the fact that Mr. Way had cancer and exposing his lies in public would make him unhappy and affect his condition, she would have explained to the old men and women below just now.
Mr. Way disagreed with Mrs. Way. “Isn’t this what a daughter should do? What’s there to say? I’m warning you, don’t talk nonsense with those people in the neighborhood. When others find out that our Gran doesn’t have much money, who will be willing to marry into our family?”
Mrs. Way’s heart turned cold, but she didn’t say anything in the end. She also knew that Gran wasn’t married yet. He was lazy and useless. He wasn’t even willing to take care of his terminally ill father. Who would be willing to marry their daughter into such a family? Hence, she could only suffer for the time being. However… Mrs. Way couldn’t help but nag again. “Then it’s too tiring for Lull to take care of you alone. You’re unwilling to hire a caretaker.”
Unexpectedly, Mr. Way said, “Hire a caretaker? If others find out, they’ll think that we don’t have a daughter!”
Mrs. Way was speechless. She said angrily, “Muddle-headed!”
No one saw that there was really a ghost circling above Mr. Ways head. He chuckled. “That’s right, it’s a Muddled Ghost!” The entire family was muddle-headed. He liked it too much! His son was muddle-headed. He didn’t know how to be filial to his parents and didn’t know how to work hard. He wanted everything. The two elders were muddle-headed. They felt that their daughter was capable and living well. Their son was poor, so it was only right for their daughter to help their younger brother. Of course, Lull was the most muddle-headed. She knew what her parents and younger brother were like, but she felt that her parents were old, so she shouldn’t argue with them. She felt that her younger brother was insensible, so she had no choice but to take care of him more. It was a mess both inside and outside the house. She was really muddle-headed. He liked this. When the Old Master died, he would move to Lull!
Muddled Ghost sighed comfortably and crossed his legs as he hummed a tune.
On the other side, Walton had already moved the tomb to Peace Cemetery. The sales manager of Peace Cemetery was dumbfounded. A few days ago, the sales manager of Evergreen Cemetery who was with him was still showing off to him, saying how good his performance was and how much his commission was. He bought a new car and went around saying that Walton was the living signboard of Evergreen Cemetery. As long as the Walton family tomb was there, the Evergreen Cemetery would not have to worry about performance. In the end… Walton suddenly moved the tomb to their cemetery.
The sales manager of the Peace Cemetery was surnamed Hedges. At this moment, he was extremely terrified. He invited the Waltons in carefully. It was already prepared inside. However, Walton’s decision was too sudden. The tombstone was usually custom-made. Even if it was urgently processed, it would take a while to carve, so the tombstone was not ready yet.
Manager Hedges wiped his sweat. “President Walton, that tombstone… isn’t ready yet…”
George: “It’s fine. As long as you can do it before four in the afternoon.” Manager Hedges nodded repeatedly. “Of course, of course…”
Amelia suddenly said, “Wait a minute…” She looked at the ancestor who had followed them. Those Daoists were unprofessional. She had held the ancestor’s hand along the way. On the way, she asked the ancestor what kind of tombstone he wanted. The ancestor said that it had to be in the shape of an auspicious cloud. As for the tombstones of the other ancestors… He said more than ten different shapes in one breath, saying that they could not be made the same, so at least he could still admire them and kill time.
Amelia counted with her fingers. “Ancestor said that he wanted a tombstone in the shape of an auspicious cloud. He said that he was tired of looking at rectangular ones! He also said that Great-Great-Great-Great Grandpa wanted a bow- shaped tombstone, Great-Great-Great-Great Grandma wanted a flower- shaped tombstone, Great Great Grandma wanted a phoenix, Great Great Grandpa wanted a dragon…”
Evergreen Cemetery.
Manager Moh heard that Walton had already gone to the cemetery. His nemesis, Manager Hedges, ran up and down to custom-made tombstones for Walton. He heard that he had also made many styles, such as bows, auspicious clouds, longevity peaches… He was so angry that he kept scolding Manager Hedges for being a lapdog, but other than scolding him a few times, he could not do anything else..
