Chapter 22: Child Ghosts
"It's all about burning shrouds for the dead these days. I've partnered with a big funeral home... Oh, grandma, have you forgotten the doctor's advice not to worry about trivial matters? If you don't get better soon, you won't be able to be discharged soon."
Song Mian's words really worked. Chen Guiying stopped asking questions and said, "As long as the work goes well, Nannan, your Aunt Shen will be back from getting lunch soon. Let's eat together then."
Song Mian agreed and asked tentatively, "Grandma, when my parents opened the funeral clothing store, how much income did they usually make per month?"
"Of course business is booming, otherwise we wouldn't have died together while driving a truck just to make a living... Oh, let's not talk about these sad things. Nannan, haven't you always known that our family is not well off? Why are you suddenly asking this?"
"Nothing, just a casual question." Song Mian endured it and swallowed everything that had happened to him.
My grandmother is old and has many taboos. If she knew that she had encountered a ghost in a funeral clothing store, she would definitely be very worried.
At first, I thought that maybe grandma could know something about the system, but after a few probing questions, Song Mian realized that grandma knew nothing about this.
However, she could tell that her grandmother might be hiding something else from her.
After accompanying grandma to finish the meal and watching her fall into a deep sleep again, Song Mian tiptoed out the door.
"Aunt Shen, you've worked so hard taking care of my grandma recently. Thanks to your help, I'm able to make some money. This is my bonus for you this month." Song Mian took out a thousand yuan and forced it into Aunt Shen's pocket. "Aunt, my grandma still needs your care in the future. Please take the money and don't hide anything from me. I can even give you a raise in the future."
"Xiao Song, have you figured out something?" Aunt Shen heard this and asked Song Mian tentatively.
"Aunt Shen, is it someone from my family who comes to look for my grandma again?" Song Mian guessed easily that only someone from the Song family could come and embarrass her grandma.
Aunt Shen sighed: "You should know better than me what those people in your family are like. They always come to intimidate your grandma. The hospital security has driven them away many times but it's useless. I wanted to inform you, but your grandma insisted and I was powerless..."
"Grandma doesn't want to embarrass me." Song Mian's face looked very solemn.
The doctor told her that there was a failure rate for her grandmother's surgery, and that only by doing her best to keep her grandmother in a good state of mind could the success of the surgery be guaranteed.
Not to mention that after the operation, grandma will definitely need a quiet environment to recuperate in order to recover smoothly.
People from the Song family keep coming to disturb grandma. It would be strange if she could have a good health.
"Xiao Song, you're a good child. Listen to your aunt's advice. If things don't work out, transfer your grandma to the VIP ward." Aunt Shen continued, "Although it's expensive there, all the treatments are the best, and your family won't be able to bother your grandma anymore."
"I remember the price of the VIP ward is three times the normal price..." Song Mian took a deep breath, "Aunt Shen, I will find a way to raise the money. Before that, please help my grandma."
Aunt Shen couldn't bear it and wiped her red eyes: "Don't worry. It's not easy for you as a girl. If it really doesn't work out, wait until the operation is over and take your grandma away from Haicheng. Otherwise, your life every day will be too hard."
"Thank you, Aunt Shen. I'll consider it." After thanking her, Song Mian went to see her grandmother's attending doctor.
She had just paid more than 300,000 yuan for surgery, and had originally planned to have her grandmother undergo surgery immediately in the near future.
But now it seems that she can't be impatient.
After discussing with the attending physician, Song Mian learned that the best time for her grandmother's surgery was one month later.
During this period, she needs to earn enough one million to send her grandmother to the VIP ward for the best treatment.
After setting the goal, Song Mian left the hospital and returned home.
Song Mian quickly cleaned the store and forced himself to cheer up.
Since she couldn't hide from the Song family, she had to make money as quickly as possible and try to take her grandmother out of misery as soon as possible.
After sleeping for a while, Song Mian got up and started preparing to cook.
Prepare all the ingredients first. Song Mian was busy from five in the afternoon to nine in the evening, and finally served ten dishes, two soups, two desserts and two fruits on the old antique long table in the house.
The long tables put together are seven meters long and three meters wide.
Several servings of various dishes were prepared on the long table. When Song Mian was ready, Lin Jiaojiao also came with Xiao Shitou and his friends.
Although I searched the news in advance and learned about the pain that children have to endure after being abducted.
But when Song Mian saw these child ghosts with his own eyes, he was still surprised by their miserable appearance.
Not only were these children dressed in rags, but half of them were disabled.
If a person's body is incomplete before death, their soul will also be incomplete after death.
Some of these children were missing their hands, while others had their arms severed at the elbows.
Some were lame, some had broken legs, some were using crutches, some had thick bandages wrapped around their heads, and some even had burns and explosion injuries on their faces and bodies.
The key point is that they were not very old when they died.
Xiao Shitou is considered to be of medium height among these child ghosts. Most of the other children are even smaller than Xiao Shitou, and look only about six or seven years old.
The only three who looked older were only twelve or thirteen years old.
Seeing Song Mian looking at them without saying anything, Xiao Shitou looked a little overwhelmed and explained to her: "Sister Song, I'm sorry, we can't change our appearance when we die, so it looks a little scary. But don't worry, we washed our hands before coming here, so we won't dirty your shop."
"I know. I won't dislike you either. Come, sit down. I have prepared a lot of delicious food for you." Song Mian said, and quickly arranged for the children to sit down with Lin Jiaojiao.
Song Mian handed the bowls and chopsticks to the children one by one.
As soon as the children took the small bowls of white rice, they could immediately smell the aroma of the food.
There were all kinds of delicious food on the table, including braised pork, lettuce with oyster sauce, three fresh vegetables, sweet and sour spare ribs, fried meatballs, peach cakes and small cakes. At first glance, they were all delicious things that the children could rarely eat. The children did not dare to touch them for a while.
"Remember, eat slowly!" Holding back his saliva, Xiao Shitou picked up a piece of tender braised pork and put it into his mouth.
