Corpse Recovery Diver

Lin Fu'an wasn't angry, just nodded awkwardly, "Indeed."

Chen Shoumen: "Master, if we don't make a decision soon, it will be too late to prepare."

Lin Fu'an turned around, looked at Lin Shuyou, and shouted, "Ah You!"

"Hm... huh?"

Lin Shuyou rubbed his eyes and opened them.

Lin Fu'an: "We'll listen to you, you tell us, how should we entertain the guest?"

Lin Shuyou: "Grandpa, Master, I already said, entertain like when my university classmates come to play at my house."

Upon hearing this, Lin Fu'an and Chen Shoumen's eyelids collectively twitched.

Is this something you can play around with? It's possible to mess up the great situation at hand.

Lin Fu'an gritted his teeth and slapped his thigh hard:

"Let's do it as Ah You said!"

…

Early this morning, before dawn, Lin Fu'an sat at the circular door of the inner hall and started drinking tea.

From morning to noon and then afternoon, tea was consumed pot after pot. Being old, he couldn't hold his urine well, yet afraid of missing the guest while using the toilet, Lin Fu'an had to endure holding it every time until he couldn't anymore, then rushed to relieve himself, and quickly ran back to sit down, pick up the teacup, and continue drinking tea.

Lin Fu'an's son, Lin Shuyou's father, was assigned to sweep the yard inside the inner hall.

He had been sweeping for most of the day, but the old man instructed him to keep sweeping, without clearing all the fallen leaves, always having some left to sweep.

Lin's father truly wanted to touch the old man's forehead temperature, but facing the old man's sharp look while holding his urine, he ultimately didn't have the courage.

At the back of the inner hall is the temple house, where Chen Shoumen was lying on a couch at the entrance, a table in front of him holding scriptures and a lottery tube.

He was more comfortable than the old man, as he was in the back with the left hand holding a brush, the right hand pressing the lottery tube, squinting for a nap.

Today, the temple worshippers were diverted early, entering the main gate being arranged by temple disciples to take another incense offering path.

At the gate of the temple, Lin's mother stood holding a full basket.

As for Lin Shuyou, he was required to sit at the tea stall opposite the temple gate drinking herbal tea.

Lin Shuyou supported his elbow on the table, rested his chin in his palm, facing his back to the temple gate direction, then fell asleep.

Lately, he had been extremely sleepy.

And honestly felt that there was no need to act offish with Brother Xiao Yuan and the others.

However, Ah You didn't take this matter to heart, but the child was very mindful.

Upon sensing the guests arrived, the child directly opened a vertical pupil for Ah You.

"Buzz!"

"Thud..."

Lin Shuyou crushed the table beneath him, collapsing to the ground, the bowl and dishes originally placed on it shattered all over.

Tan Wenbin: "Is this your Fuzhou custom, sweep away the dust, peace through shattering?"

Lin Shuyou forcefully closed his eyes, reopened them, and the vertical pupil closed.

"Brother Bin, Brother Runsheng, Brother Xiao Yuan!"

Tan Wenbin was carrying a big cake, followed by Run Sheng carrying two large bags of incense.

The cake was to celebrate the old man's birthday, the incense was for the temple.

Tan Wenbin grumbled, "I thought you made some progress, coming up with an excuse with Mr. Li about your grandpa's 80th birthday, turns out it's really your grandpa's 80th birthday!"

Lin Shuyou: "It's fortunate timing on my grandpa's part."

Tan Wenbin looked at the cake in his hand, "Couldn't make it fresh in time, I asked them to piece it together, there's even a circle of peaches inside.

If you'd told me earlier, I could have brought some Nantong specialties when I left."

Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin, the Nantong specialties I brought home last Spring Festival, no one at home ate them."

Tan Wenbin: "It's the thought that counts. How about you sneak them out now, and I'll carry them in?"

Lin Shuyou: "Can't sneak them out."

Tan Wenbin: "Why?"

Lin Shuyou: "They're now offerings by my grandpa."

Tan Wenbin: "Alright alright, let's go in, Run Sheng and I are hungry, is there food?"

Lin Shuyou: "Yes, my mom went to buy groceries before dawn."

Tan Wenbin: "It's really too kind of you, preparing the meal early for us, waiting for us to start eating."

Lin Shuyou: "The meal's not ready yet, my mom is still holding the basket, stepping in place inside the temple gate."

The four walked into the temple gate.

Just walked in, they saw a woman with a basket walking past them.

Lin's mother: "Ah You, who are they?"

Lin Shuyou: "Mom, they're my classmates."

Lin's mother: "Ah, your classmates came, what a coincidence, I went to buy groceries just now... at noon... just returned this afternoon."

You take your classmates to play for a while, I'll go cook and call you when it's ready."

Lin Shuyou: "Okay, mom."

Tan Wenbin: "Sorry to trouble Auntie."

"No trouble, hehe, no trouble."

Lin's mother smiled and walked towards the kitchen, swayed after a few steps with a numb leg but still pushed through to steady herself, moving forward step by step.

Everyone pretended not to see.

Under Ah You's lead, everyone continued walking inside.

Reached the circular door, Lin's father spoke up: "Ah You, who are they?"

Lin Shuyou: "Dad, they're my classmates."

Lin's father: "Oh, classmates came, hahaha, good... ouch!"

Lin's father tried to straighten up but couldn't, continued to stay in the sweeping posture like a dedicated stooper.

Entering the circular door, saw Lin Fu'an pick up his teacup, drinking tea.

"Ah~ smash."

Satisfied tasting the tea, his gaze shifted forward, then slowly turned, as if just noticed.

"Ah You, who are they?"

"Grandpa, they are my classmates."

"Good, classmates come from afar, you must treat them well."

"Okay, grandpa."

Tan Wenbin carrying the cake: "Grandpa, wishing you blessings as vast as the East Sea, longevity like the Southern Mountain!"
