Spoiled by Eight Uncles Novel novel Chapter 293

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? 

They were planning on buying a burial plot because the old man came back with the flyer one day. 

To put it in a good way, their family was open–minded about life and death. They saw it as a natural phenomenon. 

However, was it the case? 

Claire felt suffocated. 

The old man put down his cutlery and said, “I’m full, you guys can continue,” 

After speaking, he trembled as he got up and went back to the room. 

Ken blurted out after seeing the door closed, “Claire, why did you make Dad disappointed? Dad is old and why can’t you grant his final wish? 

“You’re right, I’m useless because I only earn four thousand dollars a month and don’t have the money to buy a burial plot for Dad! If I had the money, I would’ve given Dad what he wanted without hesitation,” 

“How selfish are you?” 

After Ken finished speaking, he went back to the room. 

Claire bit her lips and tried her best to hold back her tears. 

However, Claire could not hold it back and tears dripped. 

Was she wrong? 

Was she wrong for being calculative about her brother? 

Claire’s mother sighed, “Don’t take it to heart dear… You know how your father is,” 

Claire sibbed and said, “What did I do wrong, Mom? Lola’s father said he’ll divorce me if I paid the full price for the plot,” 

Claire was confused. 

# 

Some things should not be said to mothers. 

It was not certain if her mother would tell her father about what she said earlier. However, it would be difficult to get along with her son–in–law if she did so. 

The old lady was silent and had a look of pain. 

“I’m so sorry for you, Claire. You see, your brother isn’t married yet so, you have to take care of him,” 

“Think about it, your brother has a partner now. If his partner knows that he is such a useless and incompetent man, there might be a problem.”
