Chapter 1210: Fear in the unknown
Chapter 1210 The unknown is the fear
"Qian'er!" Xiaoqian's mother came back with a pot of soup and a few symbols in her hand. She came in and gave it to Yu Minglang.
"Quickly, it's burning outside the community-eh, there are guests at home?" Xiaoqian's mother nodded politely when she saw Qi Yuxuan, turned her head and confessed to Minglang.
"Hurry up and take it out and burn it along the north side of the community."
"What is this?" Yu Minglang looked at the pile of yellow paper wrapped in a little speechless.
"Receive the soul charm, I begged someone to paint it with great difficulty. Our Qian'er must be frightened today, so I hurriedly burned it. By the way, you can carry a bottle of wine down again, and get some wine and pour it on the road. , Burn a few more pieces of yellow paper to pay tribute to those lonely souls and ghosts, and finally put the incense in."
Qi Yuxuan watched Xiaoqian’s mother talking like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
"Um...Mom, in our family's hospital, is it not appropriate to burn these?" Yu Minglang said euphemistically.
Not to mention that he himself doesn’t believe in these burning papers or something, and that he, as the company’s president, takes the lead in engaging in these superstitious activities at the entrance of the courtyard. Isn’t that appropriate?
If Dad sees it, it won’t be ink for a day?
"Why is it inappropriate? Don't care what kind of hospital you are, if people are scared, they have to be called souls! If they are scared and stupid, it will delay my grandson... What should I do with my daughter? I can ask, this will have to be a family The main man burns, or I want to burn it all back."
Xiaoqian rubbed her temples, "Mom, can you stop being sacred all day long?"
"What is the gods and the way? Mom is not for you! You think this is a good beg, I have been in line for a long time! Hurry up, people say that it is not good for Qian'er not to burn, and it is not good for a child if it is not burned!" Mother Qian looked at Qi Yuxuan while scolding her daughter.
"Brother, are you my uncle's colleague? I think you are a bit familiar?"
"I am the face of the public, and everyone looks familiar." Qi Yuxuan said with a smile.
Xiaoqian’s mother tilted her head and thought for a long time, but didn’t think of it, "Is that so, how do I think I have seen you somewhere..."
"I am Xiaoqian's PhD supervisor. Come over to talk to her about homework today. We will meet a lot in the future."
"Oh! It's the teacher, did my girl trouble you?"
Xiaoqian’s mother doesn’t understand what a doctoral tutor is, but she is accustomed to the polite words she heard from the teacher.
"She is very smart. It is my luck that I can receive such a smart child. You are blessed to have such a good daughter."
"That's not it!" Xiaoqian's mother likes others to praise her daughters, and she just sat on the sofa and started showing off.
"My daughter is excellent in character and academics, and she is also very filial. Our neighbors in the neighborhood envy me, she—"
"Mom, you don't watch TV anymore?" Xiaoqian couldn't bear to interrupt, her mother was a little embarrassed to praise herself so much.
"It's okay, let your mother say, I also want to know more about your situation."
Listening to Qi Yuxuan's words, Xiaoqian's mother instantly became energetic. She thought that Qi Yuxuan's questioning was like a home visit of a primary school student, and immediately started the mode of complimenting her daughter.
"My girl was smart when she was a child, and her grades did not fall into the top three of her grade. In the college entrance examination, if it weren't because of illness and disorder, she would have been the college entrance examination champion-Ming Lang, don't stand, hurry up and burn the paper!"
Qi Yuxuan looked at Xiaoqian’s mother and then at Xiaoqian, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, but it was a calculation.
"Baby Qian, go with him, just as a suspicion for your mother. I will give your mother a simple ‘treatment’ here, so that she will definitely not have a psychological shadow."
"Okay." Xiaoqian was convinced of Qi Yuxuan's words, got up and went out with Yu Minglang.
Xiaoqian followed Yu Minglang downstairs, Xiaoqian complained.
"You say my mother, I will ignore her, she looks pitifully and unbearable, but look at her, she is too superstitious to do these things every day!"
Yu Minglang found a place where no one was leeward, and patted the beauty on the head, "Go and let the wind go, someone will call me!"
"Wow!"
Xiaoqian was speechless when he saw that he really took out a lighter to prepare.
"My mother is uneducated, and you are uneducated?! How did you get your two master degrees? I will go to Yu Gang and ask him to tell you against superstition!"
"Who told my mother to say that not burning is bad for you, and that it is not good for children if not burning... If she says that not burning is bad for me, I really won't burn."
Yu Minglang muttered, is it easy for him, the dignified vice president is reduced to burning paper, and he has to sneak into it while others are not paying attention!
"Tsk tsk, these feudal superstitions have captured the fears of you people in this way. If you scare a few words, you can believe it!" Xiaoqian doesn't believe it at all. It sounds foolish. .
"I don't believe it, I just think it's a bit of a response to gambling with you and your child." Yu Minglang usually treasures Xiao Qian, and now Xiao Qian has a child, he can't listen to any bad things.
"So, nowadays, some gods like to scare people like this. If you don't believe it, you will be unlucky for many years. If you don't do this, the whole family will die--"
"Hey, isn't that the South China Tiger?" Yu Minglang couldn't hear these extreme words now. He also learned Xiaoqian's clumsy topic-shifting skills, and pointed to the sky.
Xiao Qian gave him a funny push, "Why are you so boring!"
If it doesn’t sound good, everyone will respond, but more people would rather believe it.
In fact, some superstitions are also taking advantage of people’s weaknesses. People have the psychology of avoiding evil and seeking good fortune. If you add a word of unbelief, you will suffer some retaliation. Most people will feel scared. Pushing revenge into the world after death or the future, anyway, I can't see it now but it makes people feel a shadow.
"Did you know that unbelief letters were very popular in the early years? It is just to bundle some small money on a letter, and then the letter will be unlucky within a few days if it is not written."
Xiaoqian nodded as soon as Yu Minglang said, "Yes, we have set up a special team. I organized the children in the yard to look around, and I took all the money down and threw it away. In the end, it seemed that there were several dollars in the collection. "
The few dollars at that time were huge sums of money! The big guy bought snacks and opened a celebration banquet.
"This letter captures the weakness of people’s hearts. Luck, death, and the world after death are all unknown worlds to us. We are always afraid of the unknown, and then get some money to attract people’s attention. , Using greed to intimidate, a small unfortunate letter contains so many psychological sayings, so psychology is not far away from us, it is often liars and bad guys that have more psychological weaknesses than ordinary people, Xiaoqiang You said that when the old unit was training, why did it have to take you to see the execution of the death penalty?"
"Remove the fear of death for us. I feel terrible because I have never seen it before. If I have not seen it, I will imagine a lot. But if I have seen it and discovered it, it will be so, and it will be calm."
The irresponsible author recalls the small theater (this bowl of chicken soup is free): We are always afraid of the unknown. Before listening to the three words of the crematorium, we felt scared. We went to the crematorium to deal with the funeral of our relatives and saw that there. The staff wore heavy makeup in high heels and pointed to the ashes storage boxes with the toes of their shoes. Then they realized that death is just a journey of life. Knowing that there is nothing terrible, but they will be sentimental again. People who leave to me are memories of the past, except for a small box, cherish the person in front of me, because I don’t know if I can see it in the next second, maybe one thing is forever, no one wants this kind of sentiment, but life is Never let anyone go.
