Asti Girl Carrying the Curse
Chapters 110. The Coming of Various Events
The matter of the wedding invitation of Mbak Almira is temporarily kept neatly safe. Asti meant to keep it, so that Joko can arrange her heart first. Until his cousin's sister was quite ready to hear the news of the wedding of the woman, which will be held two weeks to come.
Fear among the young men who work in the tent stall was careless talking about the wedding invitation Mbak Almira. Because many of their families or acquaintances also get the same invitation. In fact Mas Danu, also knew the family of Mbak Almira, who lived in the village adjacent to his home. Although it is opposite on the main road, on the border that divides the region into two different districts.
Mas Danu, who is an only child, always asked for permission to take Joko's car every time he went home . Almost once a month, he always took his father regularly to RSUD in the city. It would be very risky to take a middle-aged man with an unhealthy body on a motorcycle back and forth from home in the village to a city that is quite far away.
" Mas Joko's. Two days ago I was looking for Mas Barep, you know!" say Word.
" He's heard about Jago, huh ?"
" Where would the boys of the biker gang open such an important secret to us, which is just a crumb rempeyek rebon..."
The absurdity of the Word was immediately greeted with another laugh. Two other employees were still busy cleaning vegetables to wash. They will only spend the stock of raw materials for the next two days. The boss still looks exhausted. But it is also forced to monitor the development of the process of preparing merchandise for the tent stalls.
The young man during the pilgrimage tried to take care of all members of his family with all his heart. From his parents to little Akbar. The baby was also not too fussy when he was there.
" That's by - by her, I've set up at the table. Each crackle has a de label name each. May I change if the wrong size is a little..."
Joko's men finally took the black crackle bag according to their name label. The bag was already prepared on the table in the side yard. In the bag there is prayer equipment in the form of prayer, songkok to prayer beads. There is still a bottle of zamzam water and a box of candy typical of the Arab country.
Sure enough, the songkok that Joko chose for each of his men did have to exchange with others. Sometimes the thin body of the Word even the size of his head is large. Only the crackle that says Mas Danu's name has not yet been in the brain - swished by them. Because the man came yesterday a little afternoon. Besides being a little long at home. He would stop by to buy condiments in other markets.
Ms. Ning came the next morning escorted her nephew on a motorcycle. He was very happy to see Asti, Akbar and Ninuk looking healthy today.
It turns out that in her village, Mbak Ning is harvesting mangoes. So he brought many types of mangoes planted in front of the house. All the mangoes were put in sacks. Similar to a sales person because the sack is quite large and placed in front of the motorcycle of his nephew who was driving to this house.
" This Dawn is for Mas, the same as Mbak Ning family in the village!" call Asti.
The young man was the son of the elder sister of Mbak Ning. He received a bag of food, zamzam water and a prayer mat. After the young man decided to return to his village which was almost an hour from Asti's house, riding a motorcycle..
" It's in the good rut, Sister Ning!" Pinta Ninuk . When looking at a sack of mangoes that have been sorted contents. Bu Jum had already separated the ripe mangoes and the ones that are still clawing.
" Sip, Ma'am!" Ma'am Ning replied quickly.
He went to the kitchen to get a knife and a container from a plastic bowl. Together with Bu Jum they peel some mangoes curd while preparing spices in the form of chilli, salt and brown sugar, will also be more delicious if the spice is given a little tersasi grilled.
Asti took out two packs of bags made of simple cloth. He gave it to the two women who worked in this house who always helped him take care of and take care of this house.
Bu Jum kissed the prayer rug, mukena and veil Asti bought in the city of Medina. " Thank you, Asti. The fragrance of the Holy Land is different. May Madam Asti have much fortune and her life is always a blessing!"
Mr. Roh and Mr. Yanto also got almost similar parcels, prayer mats and squats. Actually giving by - therefore not a necessity for people who are Umrah. But the simple-minded villagers regard the by-by from the Arab Land as a blessing to them. So Asti ordered quite a lot of parcels for the neighbors from the Bu Haji Anissa store, a week before they left.
Equally derived from Arab lands, all hajj and by-products were sold at Bu Haji Anissa in the shophouse. Moreover, Asti has chosen nuts and candy that has been packed in a neat bag so that it looks attractive when given to neighbors and others as souvenirs.
Some mothers who are members of their umroh groups even to the point that some are buying gold jewelry, as well as some other luxury items such as watches. Asti only buys as necessary, goods that are not too expensive but there are benefits for people who receive it. So more he bought prayer equipment, also for some non-Muslim acquaintances, Asti bought food and souvenirs only.
Fortunately Lek No and Bulek Ratih had agreed with Asti's plan beforehand. They agreed to register themselves for the pilgrimage. About when the time of departure, hopefully God still gives the couple a long life and ease of sustenance to pay the payment of the cost of Hajj from the rice fields and gardens.
Akbar slept very well after lunch. While Ninuk was engrossed in enjoying mango dishes beside the house. There is Bu Jum, Mbak Ning and Mas Yanto who joined.
There is even Mas Firman who also likes to eat spicy rujak. Asti didn't dare, considering he had ever been ill with typhus. It is better that he enjoys pieces of ripe mangoes on the plate. This mango fruit tastes very different sweet, fresh and smells good.
Other when purchased at the market or by the side of the road. Because most traders, buy mangoes that are young or raw. Later the fruits are put into the water soaking drugs such as carbide or alum and then sprinkled for a few days so that it ripens quickly, so it can be sold immediately and make money.
Some of Joko's men went shopping at the city market with him. They shop for vegetables and various food additives in stalls in the form of meatballs, sausages and shrimp crackers.
" Mr Asti, many neighbors who say thank you for being given by-by. " Report Mr. Roh.
" Yes, Sir. Just a little, the important thing is flat and all the neighbors part."
" Thank God, Ma'am. I am also very grateful, for being given complete prayer equipment!"
Yesterday, Lek No handed over two of his new gloves. He said he was given by members of Mas Adam's family because they stayed one room with him in the hotel. They were always helped by Joko and Lek No sincerely during the worship trip.
The holster, too, was put into a bag of crackles along with prayer mats and squats from Asti to Mas Yanto and Pak Roh. It seems that the more we give to others, the more our fortune flows.
Also Puspita had stopped by briefly to hand over money from selling goods in the store. On Friday, he will take Puspita shopping to Klewer Market in Solo. He got information from one of the shop owners there, if he had a new model skirt and culott for wearing hijab women.
Of course Puspita wants to come with the invitation Mbak Asti. It was also brought by-by the gift of the beautiful woman. Then he decided to go to the market to open a shop.
It turned out that the results of the Puspita report were very neat . The store's income has also increased. It seems that Asti needs to find one more employee to help Puspita in the store. Hopefully they will stay safe.
It is much easier to hire employees from others, without any kinship. They really do the work they do..Also trustworthy.
Unknowingly, Asti holds a contract letter from one of his ruko tenants, Mr. Warsaw. He had less focus on overseeing his business because of his late health was not good. While his son had not lived with them in the opposite village. The man will close his business in Asti's shophouse by not extending his contract lease again this year.
