Chapter 1164 What to do when you encounter such a neighbor 51
When A-Zhuang saw Zhang Chenghua, she looked around but didn't see any spirits. At the moment, she couldn't communicate with any spirits.
However, there is another way.
Because the client wants to return, she will not use methods beyond the client's capabilities in these matters unless absolutely necessary.
"We haven't seen the old man's spirit yet, so we can't communicate with him. If you're not in a hurry, Mr. Zhang, when you get back, please burn plenty of paper money for the old man. I didn't tell you how much last time, probably because we didn't have enough money. As far as I know, it's very expensive for spirits to appear in dreams in the underworld."
"Over the years, Mr. Zhang probably hasn't burned a lot of paper money for the old man, he's just going through the motions on special occasions, right?"
In fact, let alone Zhang Chenghua, most people worship the dead for their own solace and remembrance; very few people actually believe that it is useful.
In fact, the setting of this world is quite useful.
"What if we're in a hurry?" Zhang Chenghua asked subconsciously. Actually, it wasn't that urgent; it was just one night.
He just wanted to know if this Master Yi, who didn't look like a master at all, had any other way to communicate with the old man.
Azhen said, "If we're in a hurry, we'll have to use other methods to get the old man to come up here, but that will require a lot of paper money to open the door."
These are all rules that A-Zhen has recently figured out. After all, she won't be here anymore, and if there's anything urgent, the client won't be able to do it without a set of rules.
Having accepted this task, she was determined to complete it perfectly and satisfy the client.
Such a blessed person will receive much in return, and the soil she takes away from this world will contain even more richness.
"Does that mean a ghost-summoning ritual is needed?" Zhang Chenghua immediately understood, as this was similar to what he knew.
A-Zhen nodded: "That's right. If you're not in a hurry, I don't actually recommend doing this. You should go back and wait for the old man to appear in your dream. If the old man doesn't come, then you can use this method. After all, asking a ghost to open the door requires more ghost money, and it's quite tiring for Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Chenghua finally understood; he needed to burn paper money for the deceased.
This setting is more acceptable to people.
Xu Jun had told him about burning paper money before.
He had noticed Xu Jun's excessive dependence on the old lady, and initially thought it was just Xu Jun seeking comfort, but he didn't expect things to be more complicated.
He believed that Xu Jun wouldn't lie, but only by experiencing it firsthand could one truly be convinced.
So he decided to go back and burn paper money to see if the old man would appear in his dreams tonight.
It's a family matter, and it might involve some shameful things. It's best for family members to know, so as not to embarrass themselves.
After seeing Zhang Chenghua off, Xu Juncai asked Azhen if it was possible to meet the deceased in reality. When Azhen shook her head, he had no choice but to give up.
"Then can you open your third eye?"
Azhen naturally denied it, since it wasn't something the client could do.
Perhaps in the future, as the world evolves, it might happen, but it certainly won't happen now.
"Forget it, I shouldn't ask for so much. I'll just go back this weekend and cook some extra for my grandma."
"Won't burning too much have any effects?" Xu Jun asked with some concern.
Azhen smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, don't worry. Not everyone is as sincere as you are. The conversion rate of ghost money isn't that easy. The old lady received more because you are filial and genuinely want her to live a good life."
“I think that burning paper money for the dead with such sincerity is very rare.”
"That's good. The old lady is the person I care about most. I'm so happy to know she's doing well. It won't affect anything. I'll go back every week to burn incense and firewood. I'll make sure she doesn't have to do anything over there and can just enjoy her life." Xu Jun was in a good mood. Since learning about this, he still had the opportunity to be filial to the old lady, and he had no regrets.
Azhen smiled as she walked out of the office. Just as she returned to her workstation, she received a message from Yi Shulan saying that someone had arranged to discuss storing ashes that afternoon. Because she had to work during the day, all appointments were scheduled after get off work.
To be honest, it actually suits many office workers quite well.
"What does Mr. Zhang want with you?"
"Yi Huan, you seem to be quite favored by President Zhang lately."
"Let's talk about some work-related matters," A-Zhou said.
Not getting the answer I wanted, my colleague lost interest.
While A-Zhuang was working, those sitting nearby began to whisper among themselves.
"I've heard that Mr. Zhang is still unmarried..."
"Yi Huan is actually quite good-looking."
"If I looked like Yi Huan, I would have married a rich man long ago."
"I've been with the company for several years, and I've never heard of Yi Huan dating anyone."
The sound was far away and very faint, yet Azhen could hear it.
This is unavoidable. Even without this incident, many people would gossip about the client behind their back because of their appearance.
She pretended not to hear and continued working.
She has no intention of quitting this job; the client will have to resolve these issues upon returning.
Now that Xu Jun knows her abilities, and that contact with such a person is beneficial to the client, she still prefers that the client continue working here, even if it's just as a mascot.
For Xu Jun, having such a person by his side is definitely beneficial; it's a win-win situation where they complement each other and achieve mutual success.
The main reason is that Xu Jun is an upright person, and with an old lady watching over him, he won't have any other ulterior motives. She feels very comfortable letting her client contact him.
When A-Zhu got off work and got home, she saw Yi Shulan downstairs.
The other party is inspecting the newly installed elevator, and the workers are already testing it.
The people in the same building were somewhat wary when they saw Azhen and Yi Shulan, fearing that the two might cause trouble.
Yi Shulan's expression wasn't good; she was mainly disappointed and saddened by the faces of these people.
Fortunately, these things all happened in an instant.
Now, she won't take these things to heart; it's not good to get angry at herself.
"Let's go, dinner should be ready," Yi Shulan said to Azhen. "After we eat, it'll be about time for our appointment."
A-Zhou naturally had no objections.
Everyone watched the mother and daughter leave, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, though a strange feeling lingered in their hearts. Yi Shulan had been quite a handful that day; her unusual quietness today seemed odd.
But the other party really didn't cause any trouble.
“It seems Yi Huan is about to start dating someone. If things get messy again, it might scare the guy away,” Jiang Shaolan suddenly said.
She immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all asked her how she knew.
Jiang Shaolan said with a hint of smugness, "That day I saw a young man follow Yi Huan into the house. I was downstairs and stayed there for quite a while. This young man was quite handsome, but he didn't know how to handle things. He actually came empty-handed. But, Yi Huan is already thirty-five. Don't be so picky. In the current situation, it's good enough that someone is willing to take her. There's no need to be so picky."
