Amelia, William, Elmer, and Ling looked at the crybaby ghost without saying a word, not knowing how to respond.

The crybaby ghost said, “After I left the tenth company, for some reason, the other companies didn’t want me anymore.”

William said, “There’s a blacklist in corporate recruitment, right? You should be famous in the industry.”

The crybaby ghost nodded. “Maybe. I had no choice but to beg the original supervisor of the company to let me go back. If she didn’t agree, I would go to the company every day to wait for her.”

Amelia shook her head. “Aiyo, this is so annoying!”

The crybaby ghost thought of her heartache and shed a lot of tears. “The former supervisor was annoyed by me. He said that since you like to cry so much, you should just go and be a professional mourner! You can cry all you want in one go! When I heard that there was actually such a profession, I returned to my hometown and became a professional mourner.” Among the people in the surrounding villages, she was the most professional at crying! Other people would cry for a few minutes at the beginning, but later on, they would start howling without tears. She was different. When she sat there and listened to the tragic suona, her eyes turned red. Her tears were like pearls with a broken string. She started crying before the coffin was lifted out of the door. When the coffin was buried, she still cried when she walked back. Those who didn’t know the truth thought that she was the daughter of the deceased! Just like that, she became famous and became a celebrity mourner. Dozens of villages, even the county city next door, could hear her name.

“The rich people in the city looked for me to cry.” The crybaby ghost was quite proud to say this. “Winter is the time when my business is at its best. Many old people die before winter. I almost mourn two times a day. I can get 700 yuan or 1,000 yuan a day. Sometimes, I can even give 1,000 to 2,000 yuan if I meet someone easy to talk to.” She could earn 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a year just by crying. It was more than other decent people working.

Amelia and William were amazed. They had really learned something today!

Amelia asked excitedly, “Is the professional mourning business so good?”

The crybaby ghost shook her head. “Only I earn a lot. Typically, professional mourners can earn 50,000 to 60,000 yuan a year. The best is only 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. Those who cry unprofessionally can only earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year.” She was different. She cried for real.

“Won’t you be blind if you cry so much?” Amelia looked at her eyes curiously. They were very, very red, even redder than a rabbit’s.

The crybaby ghost shook her head. “No, I just have to drink a lot of water and eat more salt.”

William was speechless. He did not expect this crybaby ghost to cry so scientifically. Her tears were water and she had been crying all day, so she would drink more water. There was salt in tears, so she would replenish her salt content too.

“So how did you die?” Amelia asked the main point. Logically speaking, the crybaby ghost was a professional mourner and would not bother others. If she cried and got money, she should be fine.

At the mention of this, the crybaby ghost’s eyes turned red again! She said, “Later on, I got married. My in-laws saw that I was earning money, which was why my husband married me. However, after we got married, they despised me for crying all the time. My husband didn’t speak up for me. When I gave birth, it was difficult for me to give birth. The child died when it was born. My in-laws said that I had committed too many sins. They said that they wanted a divorce, but they said that I had brought bad luck to their family and wanted me to give them money to apologize for the rest of my life.”

William didn’t expect there to be such a person. The family looked down her profession but still married her. After marriage, she miscarried, so they blamed the wife for having bad luck?

Amelia looked at her sympathetically. “And?”

Unexpectedly, the crybaby ghost burst into tears. “They asked me to divorce my husband, but I still had to give them the money. Then, they used my money to send a betrothal gift and married a second wife for my husband! The second wife also had a difficult time giving birth. She gave birth to a stillborn child. Without a word, they looked for me and beat me up. They said that my bad luck had infected them, causing their family to lose two children in a row.”

Amelia said angrily, “Then don’t give them money! You’re already divorced! Run!”

The crybaby ghost: “At first, it was like this. I saw that something was wrong and ran away. When I saw a person walking towards me, I ran because he looked a little familiar but I couldn’t recognize him. But no matter how I ran, my in-laws could find me. They pressed me down and kowtowed to their dead child, my ex-husband’s wife, and even their dog!” All because her crying was unlucky!

Amelia did not understand. “Since they despise bad luck, they should hide as far away as possible. But they’re still asking you for money. Aren’t they afraid that if they spend your money, it will be even worse?”
