Chapter 164 Ghost Marriage

Looking at Wang Haogu who was pulled out, Wu Ming's eyes showed no pity.

Even he knew that if he couldn't bring Wang Haogu back, Little Narcissus' mother would be heartbroken.

But long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Wang Haogu gambled to the bone, and Wu Ming made a decision that Xiao Narcissus' mother could not make.

Whether it is right or wrong to do so, Wu Ming doesn't know, and doesn't want to know.

He just abided by his own heart. Presumably, Little Narcissus' mother couldn't understand, but without such a bad gambler as a burden, the future life will be much easier.At the very least, there is no longer any need to worry about Wang Haogu losing money and having to sell his sons and daughters to make money.

"My lord, when an ordinary person enters the underworld, after seven days he cannot return to the sun, but he is really dead. Look, should I imprison him for a few days and let him suffer a lot before sending him back?" Zhu Yuanwai didn't know Wu Ming. Meaning, couldn't help but stepped forward to ask.

Wu Ming waved his hand and said coldly: "No need, just lock him here and don't let him leave the village. In the future, if there is a law of destiny, someone will take him away!"

The fate here means that after the little Narcissus becomes a fairy, she may come to the underworld to find Wang Haogu.

At that time, whether Little Narcissus took Wang Haogu out or reincarnated him was beyond Wu Ming's consideration.

All he had to do was to leave Wang Haogu in the underworld, and stop going out to harm his family, so as not to make any new tricks.

"Master, the new uncle is about to start!"

When Wu Ming was about to leave, suddenly a hag came from outside and brought news of the new uncle.

Hearing that the new son-in-law is coming, Wu Ming, who has never seen a ghost marry, has no plans to leave immediately, just in time to see who the new son-in-law is.

Crackling, there was a burst of firecrackers outside.

With the support of a group of ghost servants, a shy boy in a red dress with a red flower on his chest walked outside the door.

This young man looks to be in his 20s. Although he looks good, he is shaking even when he walks.

Wu Ming fixed his eyes and found that the new uncle was actually a living person, no wonder he panicked and lost his composure.

"Yue, father-in-law!" The new uncle walked to Zhu Yuanwai's side, the panic on his face did not diminish.

Zhu Yuanwai was somewhat displeased, and said sullenly: "Mei Ouchang, you are the one who wants to take my daughter, what are you doing in such a panic?"

"Father-in-law, it's the first time for Xiaosheng to come to the underworld, and he is inevitably a little scared!" The handsome Xiaosheng named Mei Ouchang looked at the ghosts in the yard with fear, and cold sweat dripped from his face.

Zhu Yuanwai's face darkened, but he didn't feel comfortable in front of Wu Ming, so he said in a muffled voice, "My lord is a yin official who patrols the sun, so hurry up and come here to pay respects."

"Xiaosheng Mei Ouchang, I have met, I have seen Lord Yinguan!" Mei Ouchang glanced at Wu Ming, with a smile that was uglier than crying, just like a dead parent.

Wu Ming frowned slightly, looked at Zhu Yuanwai, then at Mei Ouchang, and asked, "Don't be afraid, I'm just like you, I'm also a man in the underworld, and I'm just an official in the underworld. I see you, It seems a bit reluctant, what's going on?"

"My lord, you have to make the decision for me!" Mei Ouchang knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and begged again and again: "I am originally from the underworld, and these evil spirits have done a lot of evil and insisted on forcing me to go to the underworld to get married." , my lord, you have to be careful!"

Hearing this, before Wu Ming opened his mouth, Zhu Yuanwai trembled angrily, pointed at Mei Ouchang and cursed: "Mei Ouchang, you, you really lost your conscience! You kept saying before that you are willing to take me Your daughter is your wife, you are going to go back on your word!"

"Your daughter is a ghost, and I'm a living person. How could you take her as your wife? You're trying to kill me!" Mei Ouchang refused to accept it at all, and argued loudly with Zhu Yuanwai.

Wu Ming looked at them with great interest, with a three-point smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Interesting, what's going on, who can tell me?"

Before Mei Ouchang could open his mouth, Zhu Yuanwai explained what had happened.

This plum lotus grows long, and was a scholar three years ago, living in poverty.

One night, he and his classmates got drunk, and when they happened to pass by the cemetery of Baliupo, they fell asleep uncontrollably.

Zhu Yuanwai's daughter saw that Mei Ou was pitiful, so she felt compassionate and showed up to take care of him.

In the middle of the night, after Mei Ouchang woke up, he saw a woman taking care of him, so he couldn't help complaining.

It turned out that it was his classmate's high school candidate, and Mei Ouchang wanted to borrow some rice.As a result, at the wine table, that classmate taunted him very much, and this led to the drunken incident later.

Hearing Mei Ouchang's complaints, Zhu Yuanwai's daughter couldn't bear it, and often took some silver taels to find Mei Ouchang in the middle of the night.

After three years of peace and stability like this, Mr. Mei Ou felt that his level had improved a lot, and planned to go to Fucheng to take the exam for juren.

As a result, when I arrived in Fucheng, I found out that corrupt officials are rampant now, and if there is no money to dredge the examiners, they will never be selected.

There is no way, Mei Ouchang begged Zhu Yuanwai's daughter again, and Zhu Yuanwai found out.

The following story is simple. Zhu Yuanwai agreed to contribute, but asked Mei Ouchang to marry his daughter, and bluntly said that his daughter is a ghost.

Chief Mei Ou didn't want to agree at first, but when he heard that Zhu Yuanwai was willing to pay him a thousand taels of money to clear up his relationship and buy a real estate, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Plum lotus root grows, is Zhu Yuanwai right?"

Wu Ming looked at Mei Ouchang, only to hear the other party grit his teeth and say: "That's right, but at the time I panicked, so I agreed in a daze. Now that I think about it, people and ghosts are doomed to end badly. How can a person marry a ghost wife, and I ask the adults to make decisions for me!"

Guiyiyou, being rich is a famous saying through the ages.

Mei Ouchang is already a Juren at this time, even if he fails to win the Jinshi, he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

If you want to blame, you can only blame the current Mei Ouchang, who is no longer a poor scholar who can't afford to eat, how can he be willing to marry Zhu Yuanwai's daughter.

"Mei Ouchang, since you know the difference between humans and ghosts, why did you agree?"

Wu Ming remained calm, and asked again: "Let me ask you, if you don't have Zhu Yuanwai's money, you might be able to get it? In addition, Zhu Yuanwai bought the property for you in Fucheng, what are you going to do?" What to do? If you want to ruin your relationship, these things."

"grown ups!"

Mei Ou gritted her teeth, and said in a bitter voice, "I shared 1000 taels in total. I'll write down an IOU and pay back the principal with interest, right?"

"puff"

Hearing this, Wu Ming laughed straight away. This plum lotus boss really knows how to settle accounts, and this business is really profitable.

"Why are you laughing?" Mei Ouchang was puzzled and couldn't help asking.

Wu Ming shook his head, looked at the dark-faced Zhu Yuanwai, and said, "If you are about to starve to death, and someone gives you food to keep you alive, it is not a meal, but a life.

You feel in your heart that you just owe Zhu Yuanwai 1000 taels.But I think that without the 1000 taels, you are still a poor scholar who can't afford to eat. Do you understand?Well, since you want to ruin your relationship, it's not impossible.I went to raise people's fame, and after returning the family wealth intact, I will make the decision to let you get together and leave. "

"Ah, isn't that going out of the house?" Mei Ouchang's face changed drastically, and he was stunned.

In his original thinking, returning the money he spent would take three to two years at most.At that time, as a human being, I will not be able to let the birds fly.

But now, if you want to regret the marriage, you have to lose your fame and hand over all your family property, which is really terrible.

Seeing Mei Ou's face as long as a mourning concubine, Wu Ming didn't want to say anything more, and asked directly: "If such a condition can be agreed, I will take you back to the sun now. Tell me, let me ask you one last time, Do you want to ruin the relationship?"

"Don't ruin it, don't ruin it, why don't I marry you!" Mei Ouchang shook his head repeatedly, his intestines were about to regret.

Without the fame of juren and the wealth of his family, wouldn't he become that poor scholar again.

It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

Mei Ouchang, who has enjoyed a prosperous life for a year, but never wants to be the old self again, it is simply a nightmare.

"father"

Suddenly, a loud voice came, and a young girl in a wedding dress came out of the room: "Father, let him go, I don't want to get married anymore!"

Hearing this, all the ghosts in the courtyard were in an uproar.

With a dark face, Zhu Yuanwai pointed at his daughter who came out, and said angrily, "Nonsense, how can you do it if you don't marry! Your wedding invitations have been sent out, and the whole village is watching, why don't you marry?"

"Father, Mei Lang said that he would never dislike me as a ghost, but now he still dislikes me!"

The girl was crying with a handkerchief, although there were no tears, but full of sadness: "His heart is gone, what's the use of you keeping him, what's the use of me marrying him, it's just a different dream in the same bed !"

Hearing the girl's words, Mei Ouchang was both guilty and happy, with a very complicated expression on his face.

Zhu Yuanwai stared blankly at the wine table in front of him, and suddenly raised his big hand upwards, overturning the wine table to the ground, Yang Tianchang sighed: "Forget it, forget it, people and ghosts have different paths, human and ghosts have different paths!"

Under the witness of Wu Ming, a farce ended like this.

Afterwards, Zhu Yuanwai did not pursue the responsibility of Mei Ouchang, nor did he claim back Mei Ouchang's family property, but sent him to the world disheartened.

As for whether Zhu Yuanwai's family had a story with Mei Ouchang later on, Wu Ming didn't know.

Yang world.
Back in Yangjian, Wu Ming truthfully told Little Narcissus' mother about Wang Haogu.

Hearing that Wang Haogu went to the underworld and wanted to borrow money from the ghost to gamble, Little Narcissus' mother didn't speak, but just nodded expressionlessly.

There is nothing more sad than heartbreak, and through this incident, Little Narcissus' mother has completely given up hope for Wang Haogu.

Seeing this scene, Wu Ming whispered a few words of persuasion, then turned and left.

So far, Wu Ming has almost dealt with all the trivial matters in Liaozhai, and there is nothing to miss anymore.

"Little Narcissus, we will see you again in the Immortal Realm. As for the others, it doesn't matter if you see them or not!" Wu Ming let out a breath, took a last look at the world of Liao Zhai, and thought to himself: "System, let's go back."
