Chapter 945: The Lazy Man
Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Jinlu was also speechless. There was such a lazy person in the world.
‘Was it not uncomfortable to be in the same courtyard as a corpse?
However, such a lazy person… Even if he buried the corpse, it was impossible to bury it too deep. Therefore, the two of them dug for a while and saw the rotting corpse. There were still some… indescribable worms on it.
Jiang Jinlu’s hands trembled and he almost vomited.
This man was very lazy. When he was digging, he actually did not have much energy. It was mostly because Jiang Jinlu was using all his strength. Otherwise, they would probably have to dig for another two hours before they could see the corpse inside!

Jiang Jinlu turned his head and glanced at his eldest senior sister who had been sitting next to him.
However, her expression did not change. It was as if she saw an extremely ordinary object and was not afraid!
“Senior Sister, should we get a blanket to wrap it up now?” Jiang Jinlu asked.
Xie Qiao shook her head. “Get him to move the body out and clean it up. Someone will carry the coffin over in a while. I ordered it when I left yesterday.”
Jiang Jinlu agreed.
This man did not want to move. His wife loved to be clean when she was alive, but now… she had been buried in the ground for so long. To be honest, it was not pretty. The stench was very pungent, and there were many parts of her body that were gone, her internal organs were also gone. Only her clothes
and hair were left, and the texture of her flesh… there was not much left. It looked very disgusting.
“Now that the corpse has been dug out, if you don’t continue working, not only will your wife find a wild soul to accompany her, she will probably be filled with resentment and make you suffer and be poor for the rest of your life,” Xie Qiao added.
‘When she said this, the man was moved.
He had no choice but to believe the words of the master.
Others thought that he had dragged his wife out of the city to be buried, but he had never denied it. Moreover, the people here were busy, and their relations.h.i.+ps were not that good. He also hardly spoke to his neighbors, therefore, he did not tell anyone that he had buried his wife in the courtyard.
However, the master actually knew.
So how could he not believe it?
This person took his time and tiptoed around. As he vomited, he cleaned up. Xie Qiao found a stool to sit on. She was not in a hurry and waited slowly.
‘When the sun set, the coffin arrived and a few people who played music instruments came in as well.
At this time, the corpse was also almost cleaned up.
The body was too smelly, so it was not suitable to be left for a long time. They put it directly into the coffin and it was carried out.
“Senior Sister, where are they going to bury the person? Aren’t we going?” Jiang Jinlu asked.
“We went outside of Mengjiabao yesterday and found a good place with good feng shui. We have also made an agreement with them. Now that we have received the body, they will help us bury it. It’s late now. We can go back after we receive the money,” Xie Qiao replied.
She had agreed with the people in the coffin shop yesterday.
Therefore, she did not need to do it herself.
This ghoul had low requirements. It was fine as long as she could leave from here and under the pomegranate tree.
“He’s so poor… Can he pay..?* Jiang Jinlu was a bit suspicious and almost persuaded his eldest senior sister not to take the money. Fortunately, when he was about to say it, he remembered his senior sister’s angry look and held it in.
To be honest, when his senior sister was angry… She was very scary.
“He can’t refuse to give me the money just because he says so.” Xie Qiao smiled and walked over.
This man did not follow those coffin carriers out. After asking for the address, he collapsed in the courtyard and stopped moving.
“Three hundred and fifty cash,” Xie Qiao said as she stood there.
The man’s heart skipped a beat. “I don’t have money…”
“You don’t have money? Your wife said that the mouse hole in the comer of your house has all your belongings. It’s a total of 500 cash, and she left you 150 cash for food. If you can’t find a way to make a living after spending it, you’ll starve to death.”
The man’s face was ashen. How could that woman tell others where his family’s wealth was?!
Jiang Jinlu was stunned.
How did she know?! He suddenly felt that someone was staring at his house…
