Liaozhai Ghost Story

Chapter 61 Zhu Weng

There was an old man in Zhujia Village, Jiyang, who was more than 50 years old and died at home on this day. The family hurriedly took care of the funeral, and suddenly heard a shout in the coffin, wishing the old man would die and be resurrected.

The wife was overjoyed and quickly asked him what was going on. The old man Zhu said, "I was already dead, but on the way to Huangquan, I thought of leaving you alone and take care of the children for food, clothing, housing and transportation. It's not fun to live in this way, so I specially came back and asked you to go with me."

My wife thought he was talking nonsense and didn't pay attention to it. She smiled and said, "This is not bad, but I'm a big living person, and I won't die for a while."

The old man Zhu said, "It's not difficult to die. You can cook as soon as possible."

The wife smiled and ignored it, but the old man urged him repeatedly, so he had to go out of the door, delayed for a few quarter of an hour, and came back to coax him: "It's all right."

The old man ordered her to go back to her room to make up again. His wife didn't go. The old man kept urging him. He had no choice but to dress up a little and came out in a skirt. When the daughters-in-law saw her dress, they couldn't help laughing secretly. Zhu Laoweng pointed to the bed and said, "Lie down."

The wife said, "The children are all here. What does it look like when we lie side by side?"

The old man Zhu was so angry that he couldn't help beating the wooden bed and said, "What's funny about lying down and dying together?"

When the children saw that their father was angry, they also persuaded them. The wife had no choice but to lie down side by side with her husband. The family looked interesting and covered their mouths and smiled softly. They smiled for a while and suddenly found that something was wrong. Zhu's wife's eyes were closed, and the smile on her face was restrained, and her breathing stopped. Reaching out and touching her body, her skin was cold and had been dead for a long time.
