The hunted castle

One day, Geronimos was invited to a ceremony by his uncle Samuel S. Stingysnout. But no one want to go to Penny Pincher castle, because Stingy family are a bit stingy. (Stingy, adjective, means placing too much point and so money and not wanting to spend it. One of the Geronimo's distant relatives is Stingy family.) Let me show you the reasons, they are so funny. "It's colder than icey cheese there, because they want spend the money to turn on the head. There's never anything to eat there, because they won't spend money to put cheese in the fridge. It's so dark and spooky there, because they won't spend money to turn on the lights."

You know what? Every Stingysnout family members has their own way to save money. They may wake up early to read their neighbors newspaper. They may recycle of bedsheets to make blouses. They may refuse to pronounce double letters, so they can save their breath. They may wear three pairs of long underwear, so they don't need to turn the heat on. They may never laugh to save energy. What a funny and stiny family. And what will happen in the following story? Let's keep reading.

When they arrived the castle, they were told that Uncle Bigwig was passed away, and he left a will. It says "I, Bigwig Stingysnout, heir of the Stingysnout estate, leave all that I own, by which I mean Penny Pincher Castle, to Uncle Samuel and Uncle Samuel alone"

They're all asked to attend Bigwig's funeral. But it was strange that Bigwig's coffin is so light. And finally it found out empty. Until here, you must think that this is a horrible story. The monster or ghosts may showed up next time. So do I.

But we're wrong. In fact it's a romantic story. In the next minute, one of Geronimos fall in love with one of Stingysnouts, and they decided to get marry. This makes Uncle Samuel unhappy and fainted again. Because wedding means cost much money. You know for Stingysnouts money even more important than their life. Anyway, there is no choice for him. He has to prepared for the wedding and here is the menu for the wedding.

For Geronimo, there is also an interesting ending. He got an admire, Zelda Stingysnout, in the wedding. She is a journalist. What will happen between Geronimo and Zelda? Let's imagine a picture in our mind.
