all the way

Liu Xia and Mao'er exhausted all kinds of tricks, and Liu Changqing and Sun Chang'e left Liujialing to live with them for a long time. After returning home, the two were depressed for several days, then regained their energy, and sat together to revise at night plan.

In the end, the two decided that if they don't plan to decorate now, they might as well take advantage of the comfortable season and move early. When the weather gets cold, the whole family will come. They don't have so many pavements here, and Liu Yun and Liu Lei both This little guy is now used to living in a cave, so I'm afraid the building is too cold.

If you want to move, you have to choose an auspicious day, and if you choose an auspicious day, you have to find a fortune teller.

Although Liu Xia can rest on time on Sunday, he has to work all day on Saturday. He rushed home from the construction site, and every day was after 07:30, so he was still very nervous when he went home on Sunday.

If he had taken advantage of Liu Chuan's car, Su Xiaohui, Liu Wei, and Liu Rui could have left half a day earlier, but in order to wait for him alone, everyone had to stay until midnight.

The whole family, including Liu Chuan, would not let Liu Xia run back and forth so hard, so Liu Xia and Mao'er don't leave every week now.

This Sunday, the two decided to fix the time for the move.

When Liu Xia was in Rongze High School, he knew that there were several fortune tellers who had been squatting on the Zehe Bridge in the old city all year round.

On Sunday, after breakfast, Liu Xia and Maoer first went to Gudukou Road to buy pork ribs, potatoes, and cabbage, and then rode to the Zehe Bridge.

Out of a dozen or so people, Mao'er immediately took a fancy to an old man with a white beard and a bit of a fairy spirit sitting under a big willow tree.

The two sat down on the ponytail and explained their purpose of coming. The old gentleman asked them to report their birth date and the approximate direction of the room.

The two of them were surprised at the same time: "Is it necessary to ask for a date of birth when you move?"

The old man said: "Why don't you look at it? The auspicious day of the zodiac is not a fixed day, or why don't those married people get married on the same good day?

As long as there is good or bad luck, it means that different people have different fates, so the auspicious days are not at the same time, the horoscopes are different, and the auspicious days of the zodiac are also different. "

The two felt that the old man's words were very reasonable, so they reported the horoscope honestly.

The old man lowered his eyes and twirled his fingers for a while and said, "The best day is next month, which is the fifth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar. It is suitable for offering sacrifices, praying for blessings, making a stove, moving house, and moving into a house. It is suitable for the stove to be lit at the time of day."

Liu Xia and Mao'er glanced at each other, very satisfied with this day.

There are still two full weeks, and it should be neither hot nor cold until now, and the preparation time will not be too hasty. Although they don't plan to decorate, they still have a lot to prepare, and the bed and cabinet are still there. Did not buy, there are some small things need to be added.

Liu Xia took out his wallet and asked, "Sir, how much is it?"

The old gentleman said calmly and kindly: "Divinations are always given by customers based on their wishes, and there is no need for them." He suddenly seemed to ask Liu Xia casually: "Are you sure you remember your birthdays correctly?"

Liu Xia felt that his question was a bit strange, and the title was also very interesting, so he asked jokingly, "Why did you say that, sir?"

But the cat got angry, and said unhappily to the husband: "It is impossible to remember wrongly, my uncle watched my birth, how could he remember my birthday wrongly?

My uncle is the youngest in my family, my grandma, my uncle and my three uncles, four uncles and five uncles all told me what the family was like when my uncle was born, and said that the rooster crowed first when my uncle landed Hey, I won't remember his birthday wrong. "

Mr. Nianxu smiled and said: "Many people will confuse the solar calendar and the lunar calendar, or get the time wrong. Another thing, I think your two birthdays are very good, so I have this question, little brother, you Don't be angry."

Liu Xia didn't have any change, so he handed a five-yuan one to his husband and said, "Give me three yuan!"

The old gentleman took the money with a smile, but when he changed the money, he not only gave Liu Xia three yuan, but also handed him a few copper coins: "Little brother, since you are here, let's count it as a marriage by the way, at your age It's almost the same, it's all about guesswork;

I've already opened an account, and I'll treat this trigram as if it's nothing to do, and it doesn't matter if you pay or not. "

Liu Xia held the copper coin and thought it was quite amusing. He looked at the cat and found that the little guy was also looking at the copper coin in his hand with great interest, looking very curious.

He asked Mao'er: "I want to know if my uncle is married or not?"

Mao'er nodded like a pounding beans: "I think."

Hearing this, Liu Xia shrugged at him, "Smelly cat, I knew you wanted to." Saying this, without even thinking about it, he casually threw the copper coins on the red gold velvet cloth in front of him.

Mr. stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes to look at a few randomly scattered copper coins, and did not speak for a long time.

Both Liu Xia and Mao'er were a little impatient, and Liu Xia couldn't help but ask, "Is the hexagram bad?"

The old gentleman slowly shook his head and said, "It's not that it's bad, but...how can I tell you?

Little brother, let's put it this way, you just need to remember that your marriage was happy in the end, and many other things that don't go well are just passing away, leaving no trace, so you don't need to take it to heart. "

Liu Xia and Mao'er stared at each other in astonishment for a moment, and then Liu Xia asked: "What do you mean, my marriage is not going well, will I... divorce? Then, remarry?"

The gentleman looked at him silently.

Liu Xia laughed: "Sir, you really know how to joke. It's impossible for this kind of thing to happen to my family. If I dare to tell you like this, if I get married and married, I probably won't be able to keep my legs."

The cat grabbed all the copper coins and said to the fortune teller: "You must be talking nonsense, my uncle has the best life, so he wouldn't tell you that!

Do the math for me, I'll see if your calculation is accurate, if not, let alone give you money, I still want to beat you, tell you nonsense that my uncle will get divorced, hum! "

As he spoke, he also casually threw the copper coins out.

The old gentleman lowered his eyes and looked at it for a while, and said: "It seems that blessings are poor, but life is expensive, and expensive is expensive, and it is more expensive when you are expensive. When life is expensive, blessings will come, and blessings will come when blessings are noble." The old gentleman caressed Xu Yi smiled and said: "Little brother, such a good hexagram, shouldn't you give the old man a little more pocket money?"

Liu Xia and Maoer, who have copied a large number of classical Chinese inscriptions since they were young, understood the old man's half-classical Chinese and half-vernacular Lungua without poetry or words. Although it sounds a bit confusing logically, in general There is no doubt that it is a very good hexagram.

Because of Liu Xia's bad hexagram just now, Mao'er wanted to refute the old gentleman, to prove that what he said was inaccurate, so that he could safely come to the conclusion that his brother's hexagram just now was also inaccurate.

But the old man's first sentence was really right, he wanted to refute but couldn't speak, Mao'er was a little speechless for a while.

Lying is not Mao'er's forte, but for the sake of my uncle, Mao'er does not hesitate to argue: "Anyway, what you just said to my uncle is nonsense, not at all, I won't give you money, hey uncle What are you doing?"

Liu Xia took out two ten-yuan bills and handed them to the old gentleman: "Thank you! If my nephew really tells you about such a blessing, I will bring a generous gift to thank you, sir."

The fairy-like old gentleman took the money aloofly: "No, one day you think that what I said has come true, just send me a big pennant, the bigger and more eye-catching the better."

Mao'er looked angrily at the 20 yuan in the old man's hand, and was 100% sure that it was definitely an old liar: Uncle's monthly salary is only 56 yuan, and he can earn more than 20 yuan by making nonsense, and what else does he want? Pennant, what is it not a liar?

Liu Xia pushed the bicycle and whistled melodiously happily.

Mao'er angrily walked beside Liu Xia, refused to take the car, and angrily said to Liu Xia: "That stinky old man is obviously talking nonsense, why did you give him money? Give back so much, just give 20 yuan, 20 yuan can buy How many things do you know?"

Liu Xia looked at him with raised eyebrows, finished playing the main theme of "Love You is Hard to Say", and then said to him: "Don't you know, good cat? You can rely on anyone's money, except fortune-telling money. I heard your grandma say that only the dead can owe money to a fortune teller.

There is another kind of person, the fortune-teller will take the initiative not to accept his money, because his fate is too bad, and the fortune-teller thinks his life is so contemptible that it is not worth a fortune-telling.

Your life is so good, of course my uncle would like to thank that old gentleman heavily. "

Mao'er looked at Liu Xia in surprise for a while, and then argued: "He's just fooling around, talking nonsense, he even said you would get a divorce."

Liu Xia stopped and hugged the cat to the beam: "No, he said that my marriage will be happy in the end, but I understood that I might get a divorce.

Now that I think about it, maybe when I first got married, I would occasionally quarrel and get angry like others, right?It's not going well, it's just that it wasn't so smooth and happy at the beginning. I think I may have misunderstood just now. "

The cat is still very unhappy, lying on the handlebar listlessly: Uncle will not only get married, he will also be unhappy when married, what kind of nonsense is this!

Beside the Zehe Bridge, the fortune-teller was rubbing the copper coins in his hands, and looked at the direction Liu Xia and Mao'er were leaving: Looking at their faces, they were both young men, so why? Put together, will it be like this?

Liu Xia whistled cheerfully and cooked rice and ribs and stewed potatoes with the cat. When he was taking a nap with the cat in his arms, he was still grinning when he lay down.

Mao'er squeezed the two corners of Liu Xia's mouth and said, "Uncle, don't laugh anymore, if you laugh any longer, you'll be laughing stupidly, and you can't come back when you laugh your mouth behind your ears."

Liu Xia broke free from Mao'er's hand, and kissed him on the forehead: "As long as you can enjoy happiness in the future, my uncle will admit it with a silly smile. Alas, our Mao'er has a precious life and is the most blessed person. Haha, God has eyes, our baby will be rewarded after suffering—”

The cat stuck its head in the socket of his neck and muttered: "When did I suffer? Except that you miss you so much when you go to school and feel that the time is a bit difficult. I always think that my life is beautiful, more beautiful than anyone else."

After getting up during the lunch break, Liu Xia took the cat all the way to the shopping mall, bought bowls, plates, chopsticks, towels and other small things and sent them home, and then rode to the furniture world near the train station , Picking furniture with joy.

But recently, they have seen too many beautiful furniture in the pictures, and their eyes have been spoiled. In the huge furniture world of thousands of square meters, there is no bed, cabinet or sofa that catches the eye.

But they will be moving in two weeks, and it’s impossible not to buy it. At that time, they still want to rely on the whole family to live here for a few more days. They don’t even have a place to sleep. How can they keep people?

Finally, the two of them saw a milky white leather-wrapped bed in a separate room, which was not bad. The price was one thousand and two with a mattress.

Liu Xia asked the seller to put the most expensive mattress with a asking price of 1000 yuan on it, sat and sat on it solemnly, and even lay down on the test bed, and then cut the price down to [-] yuan, but in the end he simply If you don't buy the land, leave.

Liu Xia and Mao'er had made up their minds, Liu Chuan knew a lot of people in Rongze, and reported to him the base price after bargaining today, and he would find an acquaintance to buy it tomorrow, and it would definitely be cheaper;

Also, they knew that Fu Dong's mattress was [-] yuan, and his sister bought it from an acquaintance. They forgot to ask Fu Dong what brand the mattress was.

Liu Xia and Mao'er have already agreed on the basic principle of buying furniture: resolutely refrain from such careless things as buying a bunch of cheap rags with money, and buy what you want, especially big-ticket items.

The bed is the most important piece of furniture besides the house in the cat's heart, so we must try our best to buy the best one.

In the evening, Liu Chuan, who just came back from Liujialing, came. Su Xiaohui had classes in the evening, and he was fine at home alone. A while ago, he and Liu Xia were busy with each other and rarely saw each other. Recently, whenever he had time, he would come to visit Look at Liu Xia and Maoer.

Liu Xia told him about buying a bed, and Liu Chuan said: "Okay, the home is yours, you can do it yourself, I will show you the bed frame tomorrow.

You don't have to worry about the mattress, I'll find a car, and I'll go to Yuancheng with Fu Dong and drive back. "

The next day, when Liu Xia came back from get off work, the bed and mattress were already in the room he had prepared for Liu Changqing and Sun Chang'e. The total cost was 20 yuan, and the mattress alone cost [-] yuan.

For the rest of the money, Liu Chuan suggested to Liu Xia and Mao'er that it would be more appropriate to buy a sofa. The family members cannot live here for a long time, and there is no such thing as putting clothes, but whether it is family members or other guests, when they arrive at home, There must be a place to sit, right?

Liu Xia and Mao'er thought about it, and felt that the sofa is indeed more practical under the current situation.

One of Liu Xia and Mao'er had to go to work, and the other had to go to school, and they didn't have time. It happened that Liu Chuan was relatively free recently, so he drove, followed by Fu Dong, and went to Yuancheng again.

When Liu Xia and Mao'er came home at night, they saw a vermilion wooden sofa with dark red sponge cushions with flowers on it, although it was far from the thick and warm sofa that Liu Xia and Mao'er wanted It was a long distance, but the two of them knew that this was definitely beyond the value of the 800 yuan they gave Liu Chuan.

But Liu Xia didn't get too entangled. When he came back the next night and saw that all the curtains in the house were neatly hung, he accepted it frankly.

The curtains are still the same as in the original dormitory, with sea blue background and white dots, but this time, they are made more carefully, each one has ruffles, and there are many pleats, making it very beautiful to hang.

With the sofa, and once the curtains are hung, the feeling of home will come.

When Liu Xia and Liu Chuan were talking on the new sofa in their new home, Mao Er sat beside Liu Xia and looked around the actually empty living room several times.

He looked at the house in his eyes, but he kept thinking about the past few days in his heart.

The money for the daily expenses of the family is placed in the drawer next to the bed of the three-dou table, and it is not locked. Except for the time when Liu Hai went abroad, Liu Xia never let the money in it be less than 100 yuan.

But Maoer almost never has more than three yuan. He thinks that if he saves a little more, his uncle will feel less anxious when he wants to rest one day.

But Maoer has been carrying more than 30 yuan in his body these days. Starting from Monday, after returning to school with Liu Rui every day at noon, he would run along the path to the Zehe Bridge to look for the fortune teller.

But he never saw that gentleman again, and asked several other fortune tellers next to him, and he got the same answer every time: "He usually doesn't sit in a stall to make divination, he is a wanderer, if it is not for the fortune teller, it is always unreliable, Afraid of being found by others to make trouble, who would wait to see Youxiang?

Don't look for him, kid, you won't find this kind of person at all. "

Mao'er didn't believe what these people said, he thought it was the wrong time for him to go.

At noon on Thursday, the second period was physical education class. He lied and said he was not feeling well, asked the teacher for leave, and ran to Zehe Bridge again, but the old gentleman was still not there.

Mao'er was very uncomfortable. He never believed in the fortune teller's words before, but this time the person who was counted was my uncle. No matter how good it was, he would rather believe it than nothing. He was willing to pay more , Let that person count a good fortune for my uncle, my uncle must have a good fortune that is most worthy of fortune telling.

Mao'er fell on Liu Xia's body, thinking about how to tell the fortune teller if he found it tomorrow.

Liu Xia thought he was tired, so he adjusted his posture so that he could lean against his arms: "Sleep, be good, my uncle will carry you back later."

The cat nodded and closed his eyes:

If that gentleman is talking nonsense, then my uncle's life must still be as good as it is now;

If he is not talking nonsense, then he said that my life will be very good in the future, and I still have great blessings. As long as I give all my blessings to my uncle, won’t my uncle still have a very good life? Is it dead?Then what am I afraid of?

Yes, that's it, Liu An, you have to study hard, become a noble person like the fortune teller said, and win more blessings for my uncle, so that my uncle can enjoy happiness for the rest of his life.

As for the shitty marriage, it’s not perfect, as long as I can earn more money for my uncle to enjoy, my uncle can live a good life without that shitty marriage...

When Liu Chuan left, Mao'er didn't fall asleep at all, but he still asked Liu Xia to carry him back to the dormitory.

Mao'er pretended to be asleep and let Liu Xia tuck him into the bed, and didn't go to wash. After Liu Xia finished washing and lay down, he put his legs on Liu Xia's waist and took a few deep breaths: "As long as uncle Here, as long as the uncle is good, the rest is optional.

Liu Xia hugged the little guy tighter, pinched the earlobe: "Hey, I'm like a police dog again, I really gave you the wrong nickname, it should be called puppy.

Have you smelled enough?Does it smell good? "

Mao'er didn't feel any embarrassment in pretending to be asleep and let the uncle hug him, so he said openly, "It smells good, but I can't smell enough."

Liu Xia admitted that he was not as thick-skinned as a cat: "Okay then, I will continue to smell it in the future, sleep now, and prepare to welcome your grandma and the others in good spirits tomorrow."

The fifth day of the Lunar New Year happened to be Sunday, and because the auspicious time for lighting the fire was Chen Shi, Sun Chang'e and the others couldn't catch up when they came from their hometown, so they had to come one day earlier.

At dusk on Saturday, as soon as Liu Xia jumped out of the car, he saw the cat followed by a group of little guys running towards him.

Liu Yun and Liu Lei yelled at him from afar: "Uncle, uncle, go home, grandpa and grandma are waiting for you to come back and eat fragrant rice!"

Liu Xia didn't even bother to explain to the team members, so he ran over laughing, put Liu Yun on his neck, picked up Liu Lei, and ran home with Mao'er and Liu Xin.

He has already smelled the aroma of dumpling stuffing coming from his new house, and seen several friendly figures in the warm light.
