Chapter 65
The old town was lively and peaceful.

But now the small town is lifeless, completely devoid of popularity.

Occasionally, one or two people can be seen on the street, and they all look in a hurry.

Seeing such a scene, Qian Nanyi felt a little emotional and sad.

I never thought that after those officers and soldiers who were like wolves, tigers and leopards came here, it would be like this.

The sadness in Qian Nanyi's heart filled his whole heart.

Finally, Qian Nanyi arrived at the place Zhao Tianle's mother had mentioned.

The shroud and coffin shop is really the only shop still open in the whole town.

The boss is an old man who looks to be in his sixties.

At the moment, he is sitting in front of the shop, dozing off on a chair.

Qian Nanyi walked over.

The old man probably sensed it and opened his eyes.

"Is there something wrong, child?" The old man's voice was a little hoarse, and it didn't sound pleasant.

Qian Nanyi nodded, then said, "I want to buy a coffin and a shroud."

The old man frowned and looked at Qian Nanyi. The child in front of him was about seven or eight years old, and he was wearing a single shirt. Probably because he hadn't changed it for a while, the clothes looked a little dirty.

But the girl is very energetic. Although she is a little fat and ugly, her big sparkling eyes make people a little surprised.

The old man has rarely seen such bright eyes in all these years.

"Where's your adult?" The old man asked tentatively.

When it comes to adults, Qian Nanyi feels sad.

"My only family member was beaten to death by officers and soldiers yesterday. I am the only one in my family. Grandpa, I want to buy a coffin and shroud for my grandpa. Do you have any more here?"

During this period of time, many people died, and Qian Nanyi didn't have much hope.

The old man sighed again, and looked at Qian Nanyi with some pity: "Son, come in with me."

As the old man walked into the shroud shop, looking at the shrouds hanging on the walls and corners, as well as the coffins in the middle of the hall, he felt a little desolate no matter what.

"The coffins are selling very well recently, and this is the only pair left. It's a thick coffin."

The meaning of the old man is still very obvious, and Qian Nanyi also knows that the prices of thick coffins and thin coffins are different.

Qian Nanyi originally wanted to buy a thick coffin for the old man, so he asked without hesitation, "How much is this thick coffin?"

The old man glanced at Qian Nanyi in surprise, feeling a little surprised, after all, the child in front of him didn't look like a rich person at all.

"Have you thought about it, child? Do you really want to buy this thick coffin? You must know that the price of this thick coffin is a bit high."

Qian Nanyi was very sure: "Grandpa, my grandfather was very good to me before he was alive. Even if it costs a lot of money, I will bury my grandfather generously. I can't let my grandfather go away in such a poor way."

Qian Nanyi's words made the old man feel even more distressed, and he sighed and said, "Well, this is the last coffin for me. This coffin is made of high-quality wood. You can see that the workmanship is also very good, and it will not change in 20 years. It will perish, and it can be regarded as the treasure of my coffin shop. Since you want it today, I will be a favor, and I won’t take your money anymore. Just give me one, two, five hundred dollars. This It's the lowest price."

Qian Nanyi felt that the price was reasonable, and the old man was not lying.

I thanked the old man very gratefully, and then said: "I still need some shrouds, but I don't know what to buy. Grandpa, you can help me with ideas. All the men in our village have been taken away, so I don't know what to buy." It is impossible to hold a funeral, and I plan to choose a better time to bury Grandpa safely."

After hearing what Qian Nanyi said, the old man said: "Since there is no funeral, it's easy to do. You need to buy shrouds and quilts. If you want your grandpa to live a good life in the underworld, buy some paper Burn them down, you can also buy spirit rooms and the like, these are all your choices, if you buy too much, I can ask someone to deliver them to you."

Qian Nanyi nodded, and bought everything the old man said.

After calculating the money, the old man gave up some more money and received the whole number.

The old man really kept his word, and when Qian Nanyi finished choosing, he asked his family to help deliver all the things to Qujia Village.

The desolation along the way always makes people sigh with emotion.

When Qian Nanyi was on the road, he also learned that the business of the shroud store has been very good recently, so that he sold all the coffins that have been hoarded for many years. It is considered that Qian Nanyi is lucky, and Qian Nanyi also has money. I just bought the last coffin in this town.

When Qian Nanyi bought these things back, the women in the village were a little surprised.

No one thought that Qian Nanyi could be so willing to give up money, nor did he think that Qian Nanyi had money like this, this could be regarded as a small surprise.

Those who deliver the coffin leave immediately after delivering the coffin.

Most of the women in the village knew the etiquette of funerals, and Qian Nanyi naturally knew when it was an auspicious day, so he chose the nearest time to bury the old man well while it was dark.

When the old man was buried, Qian Nanyi's tears were also shed. She has lived for hundreds of years, and she has never felt so sad.

The heart-wrenching feeling made Qian Nanyi gasp in pain.

It hurts my heart, and I also hate those officials who have no conscience.

At his old age, these officials can do it, how could it be like this.

Deep hatred attacked Qian Nanyi's heart little by little.

This hatred must be avenged, and this corrupt dynasty should also be toppled.

The lives of the people are in ruins, and those in power can't see it. What is there left for such a dynasty.

Qian Nanyi seems to have found his goal.

After burying the old man, Qian Nanyi stayed at home for two days and planned to go out for a walk. She would never forget the purpose of her coming here.

Not just wanting to stay alive.

I greeted Zhao Tianle's mother and the people in the village. She said that she wanted to go back to her hometown to have a look while she had nothing to do in winter.

Of course this is an excuse, but it is very useful to the people in the village.

Because everyone knows that Qian Nanyi has a hometown.

Although she was very worried about Qian Nanyi, Zhao Tianle's mother felt relieved when she saw Qian Nanyi's dress.

Qian Nanyi put down his bun, his hair was disheveled, and soot was smeared on his face. Now Qian Nanyi looked like a beggar.

Zhao Tianle's mother worriedly asked: "Nan Yi, have you really decided?"

Qian Nanyi nodded, and said with certainty: "Auntie, I will come back after the Chinese New Year. This is my grandfather's home, and I will not lose my home, but I want to go back to my old home, after all. That's my home too."

Everyone has their own choice, not to mention Qian Nanyi is a very assertive person, Zhao Tianle's mother can only send Qian Nanyi out of the village worried.
