Chapter 24. Crazy daughter thank you @zephyrjanet for the crown)
I think many people may have encountered the following situation. Walking on the street, suddenly a middle-aged and elderly man with a simple or even ragged foreign accent walked up to him. Some of them even held a child in their arms. They
He will first ask you for directions, and then look very embarrassed and tell you that he actually lost his wallet and has been hungry for many days. Please give me a few dollars to buy a cake.
At least I have encountered such a situation, more than once. Since I am a person with relatively rich experience in fraud, so when it comes to these people's tricks to defraud money, I often tell them with my eyes that I have seen through you.
, why don’t you run away for your life? But what would you think if the person who said these words to you was not a stranger on the road, but your own flesh and blood relative, and suddenly said such words with a foreign accent?
At the end of July 2010, I remember it was the second day of Guanyin Bodhisattva’s birthday. Hu Zongren called me, his voice sounded very reluctant, and he asked, are you okay this afternoon? I said no, I’m free.
.He said that you should come to your godmother.
The godmother in Hu Zongren's mouth is Granny Huang. This guy is like a chicken, a chicken, a dog, a dog, and he calls after Fu Yunni. Although Granny Huang and I are familiar, we don't get married except during festivals or when we meet her.
When I'm not in good health, most of the time I call her to express my concern, but usually when she comes to her door, it's usually when I need help or when I encounter some trouble that I can't solve. Although I am considered a person who never goes to the Three Treasures Palace for anything.
, but when Hu Zongren called me over with a very unhappy tone, I was still inevitably nervous.
Because I was also worried. After all, Granny Huang was old and had diabetes. It was impossible to say what happened to this elderly person. So I was a little nervous and asked Hu Zongren, what happened? Was Granny Huang not in good health? Hu Zongren
He said, no, Fu Yunni's brother-in-law wanted to drag me to my godmother this morning, saying that my godmother had something to ask of me. After I came here, I felt that I could handle this matter myself. Who knew my godmother had to do it?
I want you to come with me, and I want us to do this together. I asked Hu Zongren, what is so mysterious? Could it be that your Xuanyuan Society found Granny Huang? Hu Zongren said no, oops!
Just ask him when you come here! The phone bill is very expensive!
Before I could reply, this guy hung up the phone with a bang. It could be heard that he was a little unhappy this time. Because in terms of strength, I may not be able to win against Hu Zongren. Compared with him,
I may have more theoretical knowledge. Granny Huang insisted that I go with her. Unintentionally, she seemed to think that Hu Zongren was not good enough. Although Hu Zongren is an honest and upright person with many shortcomings, he is always trustworthy.
My friend. His weakest point is that it is easy for others to guess his thoughts, especially me. So after lunch, I took Sister Cai to Granny Huang’s house.
In the past, when Sister Cai and Fu Yunni met, they would chat non-stop, like two sparrows. But that day, Fu Yunni kept a gloomy face and looked very unhappy. I originally wanted to tease Hu.
Zongren, did you fail to turn in all your homework? But since there are elders here, I feel embarrassed to joke about it. When Granny Huang saw me coming, she took Fu Yunni’s hand and said to Yunni, “Goddaughter, you
Let me tell you the cause and effect of the matter.
Fu Yunni said that yesterday was Guanyin's birthday, so she accompanied Granny Huang to the temple to burn incense and perform rituals. It was just like the first and fifteenth day of every month. There were many people who came to burn incense, and they all looked very pious.
But there was a middle-aged man who bought a handful of very thick incense and then knelt down respectfully. While silently reciting a wish, his nostrils slightly opened and he started crying. Fu Yunni said that at first, the man just
He endured the crying, but soon he started crying without caring about the eyes of others.
Hu Zongren was obviously still unhappy with Granny Huang insisting on my coming. He interrupted and told me that he was just crying and unrestrained. I rolled my eyes at him and thought to myself, you are a monkey wife and men shouldn’t interrupt when you talk.
You know, you are really ignorant. As expected, Fu Yunni also glared at him, and then continued to tell me that because the man cried so loudly and couldn't hold it back, it was the Bodhisattva's birthday and everyone came to congratulate him.
Even though she was suffering, she said it silently in her heart, so the man's cry quickly attracted the attention of many people around him. Fu Yunni said that because whenever there was such a ritual, she would stay by Granny Huang's side.
, helped her distribute some of the "sacred water" prepared by Granny Huang herself to the people who were devout believers. The man's cry naturally attracted the attention of Granny Huang and Fu Yunni.
Fu Yunni said that she was different from Granny Huang. Although Granny Huang was very talented, she was already full of compassion. However, she had only been practicing Buddhism for a few years, and when she first met us, she would catch ghosts from time to time.
To scare people, Fu Yunni told Granny Huang that she was going to see what was going on. She walked up to the man and asked him first, uncle, why are you crying. The man saw that she was a young girl, so he ignored her.
Fu Yunni pointed to Granny Huang who was sitting in the temple not far away and said, that is her godmother and the person who donated the temple. She asked you to speak out if you have anything to say.
Some people had gathered around because of the man's crying. Some of them felt that they should not act in front of the Bodhisattva, but most of them were just watching the fun. When the man heard what Fu Yunni said, he became energetic. Because
The temple donated by Granny Huang is famous for its efficacious effects in that area, but the prerequisite for it to be effective is that you must be sincere. So Fu Yunni helped the man up and asked him to worship and place incense first, and then follow her over, saying
Tell us what happened.
Fu Yunni told me that all of this was actually what Granny Huang meant. Most of the time Granny Huang was not in the temple, she opened the door to do business and took money to do things. But what she received was only small amounts.
It can be done for a hundred dollars. But in the temple, which was donated by herself, Granny Huang felt that she had to take care of this matter for the Bodhisattva. Fu Yunni said that when the man came inside, Granny Huang would temporarily
He closed the small wooden door of the temple to prevent outsiders from hearing, and asked the man to talk about what happened to him.
As I said at the beginning, the person who was recruited this time was this man’s daughter. Fu Yunni said that the man’s daughter was probably about the same age as Fu Yunni. The man himself was from a company and had some capital. Usually this man’s daughter was about the same age as Fu Yunni.
Such private enterprises are often passed on to the next generation to continue running the business. The man's daughter is a shrewd person and quickly picked up the business. At a young age, she became a member of the company's board of directors.
I was surprised and said, "Board of Directors? How big a company that must be!" Hu Zongren said, "It's quite big. The annual output value is over 100 million. How can it not be big?" Fu Yunni then said, "The man's daughter started growing up when she was a teenager."
I studied abroad and only returned to China in recent years. Because of my advanced thinking and advanced ideas, I was entrusted with important tasks. And when this man felt that it was time to slowly hand over the company to his daughter, something suddenly happened to his daughter. The man said
, my daughter didn’t get married. Although she bought her own house, she still lived at her parents’ house most of the time. And he himself was busy and sometimes had many social activities, so he would come home late. But half a month ago, after returning home, he found that
My daughter is still awake and watching TV in the living room.
Fu Yunni said that it was not entirely true that she was watching TV, because the TV already had a signal ball with no program. At first, he thought his daughter had fallen asleep while watching TV, so he went to take pictures of her.
His shoulder said, Weiwei, let’s go into the house and sleep at such a late hour. As a result, his daughter did not fall asleep, but was looking straight at the TV, with her feet together, her toes on the ground, and her body sitting upright.
Not even blinking. When the man saw his daughter like this, he thought she was distracted at first, so he used a little more force on his hands. Before he could say anything, his daughter was kicking her legs and waving her hands in a heart-rending manner.
Shouting:
"I don't know you! Don't come here! I want to go home! I want to go home!"
Fu Yunni went on to say that the man was frightened by his daughter's sudden and strange behavior. Before he could recover, his daughter was like a puddle of mud, slumped on the sofa. The man's wife heard her daughter's misery
After calling, he immediately came out of the room. When the man came back, he asked him what happened. The man was also confused and did not answer his wife. Instead, he asked his wife if his daughter went out to drink tonight? Why did he suddenly
He went crazy all the time. His wife said no, she had been watching TV with her daughter after dinner, and she was still laughing. When she saw that it was almost time, she went back to her room to sleep, and she told her daughter before going to bed.
Don't play too late because you have to go to work tomorrow.
The man said that his wife was also a senior official in the company, but since her daughter returned to China, she retired early and lived leisurely at home. He said that his daughter went abroad when she was very young and he had not taken care of her much in his life. He wanted to take advantage of her.
Now that the family is reunited, let's make up for it. The man went on to say that just when the couple didn't know what to do, his daughter slowly sat up from the sofa again. Her hair was messed up because of the previous roar and struggle. She was still
He didn't look back at the couple, but continued to sit on the sofa in front of the TV. Even his posture was the same as before. The only difference was that he was sitting very upright before, but now he tilted his neck as usual.
My eyes were fixed on the TV, which had no programs.
The man said that he gave his wife a look at that time and asked her to try to get his daughter back to the room to rest. His wife walked to her daughter lightly and was about to help her up with gentle words,
His daughter suddenly turned her head and looked at her mother, and then said to her mother in a childlike tone with a foreign accent:
"Auntie, my family lives at No. XX on XX Road. Can you take me home?"
