Chapter 293 You Should Take Care of Your Brother
Lilly looked at Josh surprised.
Why does Josh want to go out at night?
“There are a lot of taboos during the Ghost Festival!” Lilly counted with his fingers. “It’s best not to go out at night, but if you do go out, you can’t call out other people’s names, so that the ghost wouldn’t remember
their names,”
“Secondly, you can’t wear clothes with your name on them,”
“Thirdly, you shouldn’t pat others on the shoulder. If someone pats you on the shoulder, don’t turn around. If you hear someone calling you from behind, don’t answer them,”
Hannah interrupted, “I won’t turn around, I’ll act like a zombie and turn around menacingly. Do you think the ghost will be scared to death?”
Lilly gave a thumbs up, “You’re awesome, Hannah!”
Josh sneered. “You’ll be scared to death by ghosts,”
After a pause, he thought that Hannah and her brother had good reflexes,
Forget it, even if they saw the ghost, they would probably stare at it.
The ghost would roll its eyes and be too speechless to deal with them.
“What’s next?” Josh asked.
Lilly continued, “Don’t wear red underwear and sit where you shouldn’t be.”
Josh asked hurriedly, “For example?”
Lilly replied, “Like on other people’s graves!”
She took a bug bite from the duck as she talked.
The duck legs made by Grandma are delicious!
Josh muttered, “Who in the world would sit on someone else’s grave…”
But Hannah opened her mouth in a daze.
She was tired from playing today and thought that she sat on a rock.
She seemed to be sitting on someone else’s grave.
-Hannah

Big head Hannah pulled her trousers quickly. She was relieved that she was not wearing red underwear.
“And then?” she asked.
“You can’t take pictures, you might accidentally take pictures of the ghosts and it might come back with
you,”
“Don’t eat the offerings, competing with ghosts for food will bring you bad luck,”
“Don’t step on the ritual papers…”
“Don’t…”
Lilly stated a lot of things.
Josh was speechless as he did not know there were many taboos during Ghost Festival.
Hannah had a headache as no one could remember all these taboos!
Meanwhile, the Clay family was also eating, but the atmosphere was extremely gloomy,
Upon hearing that their kids did not buy the burial plot, his mouth gaped.
Claire did not have the appetite to eat, she put down her cutlery and said, “Dad, don’t think about it too much, it’s not that we’re not buying it…”
Before he finished speaking, the old man waved his hand, “Why are you talking about this? Let’s not talk
about it!”
After finishing speaking, he said to himself, “I only have a few days left, I don’t care if I die. Most importantly, all of you have your lives to live. Don’t worry about me, you can just bury me anywhere,”
Claire was speechless for a moment.
No one would discuss this matter. Which family would discuss which burial plot to buy when they were about to die?
“Your father still has a couple of days left, and I urged your brother to get married as soon as possible. However, the other party is still thinking about it…”
If his partner knew what condition his family was in and how Ken depended on his family for everything, they would not dare to marry him.
It was alright if she did not marry him. However, if the rumors got out, no one would want to marry Ken and Claire’s mother could not bear to see him being single…
Claire said stubbornly: “But why should I pay? I also have a family to feed. I paid for the down payment when he bought the house, and I paid for all of Dad’s hospitalization and therapy sessions. Why can’t he pay 100,000 dollars?”
The old lady sighed, “Isn’t he broke?”
Ken suddenly opened the door and shouted, “Mom, did you know what she said? She told me to sell the house!”
Claire said anxiously, “Ken!”
Ken added, “Why can’t I tell Mom about it? Don’t you think you’re too much?”
The old lady was stunned and did not know what to say. She could only persuade them one at a time. Eventually, she went back to her room powerlessly.
The old man was eavesdropping on their conversation. He immediately sat by the bed when his wife
came in.
The old lady complained, “Do you think it’s okay for them to quarrel?”
The old man bit his lips, “It’s wrong for Claire to make her brother sell his house!”
She had money but was not willing to spend it on him.
He did not believe that his son–in–law was going to divorce Claire.
His son–in–law made a lot of money and Claire had a well–off family.
But what about his son? His son worked very hard, and his income was not even one–tenth of his sister’s.
Shouldn’t siblings help each other out?
In addition, Ken was not married yet because the bride said she wanted a dowry of 200000 dollars.
According to him. Claire should pay for Ken’s marriage so he could die in peace.
A sensible daughter shouldn’t let her parents worry.
And now they’re arguing at home…
