Xinyazhai folk tale (joke): The will of a miserly ghost

The will of the miserly

Once upon a time, a miserly rich man, before dying, called his two sons to him and asked the boss, "After I die, what are you going to do with my funeral?" ”

The eldest son replied, "Father, you have regarded money as your destiny all your life, and I dare not spend money on it, not only to do a good job of your funeral, but also to spend less money." I'm going to buy a two-person burnt cake and give you one to hang on one foot. Find two more wild dogs and you'll be dragged away. ”

The rich man was furious: "Bastard, don't two burnt cakes cost money too!" After saying that, he asked the second elder, "After I die, what are your plans?" ”

The second elder saw that the boss's method was not good, and after thinking about it, he said: "Although you are thrifty and thrifty, but you are fat and strong, you can cook and sell meat, not only to do a funeral for you, but also to make a sum of money." ”

The rich man exclaimed, "Good! Good! Then he instructed, "However, you should be careful not to sell meat to your uncle." ”

The second son asked, "Why?" ”

Rich man: "Because he is old on credit, he doesn't give money!" ”
