Fortune Teller.

Fortunately, Qiao Ran came home in time the night before, and asked Mother Qiao to make another twenty or so pork and cabbage fillings.

Otherwise, Qiao Ran would go out again this morning with the smell of leeks in his mouth.Tsk, a fortune teller and leeks really don't deserve each other.

This time, Qiao Ran arrived at eight o'clock sharp, which was just right.

However... Guiling had no business all morning.

Lying sprawled on the master chair all morning, Qiao Ran was chewing happily while holding a large bag of potato chips.In the trash can at his feet, there were already several empty snack packaging bags, and there was a large bag of unopened snacks on the low table beside him.

Even a regular customer like Uncle Li is somewhat incapable of accepting this image.

As a fortune teller, you don't need to be a fairy, but at least you have a bit of a shape, right?He had his legs crossed, holding a pile of snacks in his arms, and there were still crumbs of snacks on the corner of his mouth.Anyone who reads it will not believe that this is a fortune teller, right?

"Little Qiao, hurry up and tidy up here, your snacks are thrown everywhere. People just want to count on you, look in the door, yo, you little brat who just eats snacks, who wants to come in !"

Lao Li pointed to the snacks in his arms on the table, and sighed with his hands on his forehead, why does he like to eat snacks so much for such a big baby?His daughters are not so fond of food.

"Uncle Li, can we stop calling him Xiao Qiao?" Qiao Ran has corrected this name countless times, but Uncle Li can't remember, and still likes to call him Xiao Qiao.

Lao Li had called him Little Boss a few times before, but this title, even though it sounded awkward to Qiao Ran, seemed out of place.

"If you don't call me Xiao Qiao, what's your name? At your age, isn't it appropriate for me to call you Xiao Qiao? Should I still call you Old Qiao?" Lao Li didn't read many books, and he didn't know what Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao were. fluently.

"Just call me..." Qiao Ran thought for a while, his surname is really hard to call, "Uncle Li, you should call me Qiao Ran."

"Hey! That's a lot of life! Isn't Xiao Qiao very nice, nice to hear and easy to remember." Lao Li felt very good about Xiao Qiao's name, and he sounded like a person in a painting. Delicate and beautiful.Isn't it right for Qiao Ran?

"All right, Uncle Li, I'll be happy with you." Qiao Ran didn't bother to argue any longer. Xiao Qiao should be Xiao Qiao, anyway, she was often called that in the past.

Qiao Ran is the third child in his family, so he was often called Xiao Qiao since he was a child.Qiao Ran was young at that time, so she didn't know what was special about Xiao Qiao, but she just thought it sounded good.Therefore, every time someone called that, Qiao Ran would clap her hands and answer "Hey." with a smile.

And his elder brother, Qiao Yang, was called Big Joe.Qiao Ran didn't know why Qiao Yang would be very angry when someone called him that, so he ran to ask.

At that time, Qiao Yang pulled him and said angrily in his ear, Big Qiao and Little Qiao, that was scolding you!

When Qiao Ran heard this, she was naturally unhappy. She felt that she was stupid like a mentally handicapped person when she answered that way before.Therefore, if someone called him Xiao Qiao Xiao Qiao again, he would just stare at him angrily.

As for Qiao Yuan, there is no such name as Er Qiao or Zhong Qiao, so she is naturally spared.

Xiao Qiao was naturally very dissatisfied with this, and racked his brains to come up with an unpleasant nickname.

Qiao Yuan was quite dull when she was a child, and she was a foodie. Sometimes her mouth itch and she wanted to eat and she had no pocket money, so she sold her clothes, schoolbags, and everything else that could be sold at the price of cabbage. Snacks hopped home.

It's not surprising that Qiao's mother saw this kind of thing a lot, she just blocked the door every day.Qiao Yuan came home, she had all her clothes and schoolbags, so she came in; if she wasn't there, she threw them out.When are you willing to throw away all the snacks, and when will you let them in.

However, Qiao Yuan is to snacks, just like Grandet is to money, if he throws them away, it would be fatal. At any rate, he bought them with great difficulty and worked so hard to bring them back.

So Qiao Yuan wore thin clothes, found a place that wasn't so cold, squatted on the ground and ate the snacks in her arms.

To tell the truth, Mother Qiao was not willing to let such a small child freeze outside, but if he didn't teach him a lesson, the child would not be able to remember the words, so he had to watch him suffer from the cold.

But who knows, this child would rather squat outside and eat it all before coming in than throwing it away.Mother Qiao found it hard to understand. She didn't give less pocket money, did she?As for being so greedy?Let outsiders see it, and think she abused the child!

That's fine, Mother Qiao only hopes that if she remembers it after freezing once, she won't do it again.In the end, Qiao Yuan sold the clothes again in a few days.

Last time, who was so cold with snot and tears all over his face, who pulled the corner of her clothes to promise not to sell clothes to buy snacks again?

Oh, I was still sucking my finger at that time, I really didn't learn my lesson, maybe it was because I finished the snacks when I cried, right?

Mother Qiao suddenly felt that her education had failed too much.It's okay for Qiao's father to be greedy, but he actually gave birth to an even more greedy Qiao Yuan, and Qiao Ran also has a faint tendency to become a foodie, one by one, alas, just Qiao Yang to save her a little worry.

Helpless, Qiao Yuan really loves snacks deeply, tough measures won't work, so Mother Qiao can only give him more pocket money, and just ask him to stop selling clothes...

Later, Qiao Ran and Qiao Yang made up their minds and called Qiao Yuan "Second Idiot", calling him "Two Idiots" all day long, which was a joy.

Qiao Yuan didn't take it too seriously, as long as she didn't grab his snacks, it didn't matter what she called him.

Regarding this, Qiao's mother was also very helpless. There was one big foodie in the family, and two snacks, and Qiao Yang was the only one who ate with her, and only ate occasionally.

If Mother Qiao regretted the most in her life, it was not being able to straighten Qiao Ran back then.

At that time, Qiao Ran had already developed a tendency to become a foodie, and Qiao's mother originally planned to find a time to teach him a good lesson, talking about the disadvantages of eating too much snacks, and scaring him.

As a result, before the plan was implemented, Mother Qiao went on a business trip, which lasted for half a month.

When she came back, one big and two young were sitting in a row on the sofa, each with a pack of snacks, and a small mountain was piled up on the table.

Qiao Yang, on the other hand, was sitting alone on the side, writing homework quietly...

For a while, Mother Qiao had the illusion that "eating snacks is right, not eating is wrong".

Undoubtedly, in the past half a month, Qiao Ran has gladly joined the foodie camp and registered as a permanent member.

"Little Qiao, can you move around anyway?" Seeing that Qiao Ran was no longer obsessed with address, Lao Li started nagging again.

In the end, Qiao Ran couldn't help it, so she got up and packed up the whole room of snacks.It was also fortunate that he did this, because after the inside was cleaned up, some guests came to the door.

This time, it was two people who looked like brothers.They were all quite strong, their arms were twice as thick as Qiao Ran's, and they all wore gold chains around their necks. As for the style, Qiao Ran couldn't appreciate it, but felt that it was quite similar to what Wangcai wore at home.

Well, two local tyrants, the judgment is over.

The older man spoke first: "Mr. Xiao, my brother and I heard from friends that your calculations are quite accurate, so we came here specially to do some calculations."

Qiao Ran likes this kind of guest, with a good attitude and a sincere tone, he doesn't look like the kind of person who comes here to test and crack down on counterfeiting.

"It's your father's illness?" The visitor didn't beat around the bush, Qiao Ran simply got straight to the point.

Seeing Qiao Ran say exactly what he was thinking, the man froze for a moment, and then said: "Yes."

If before entering the door, he still had doubts about the recommendation of his friends, now, it has disappeared without a trace.

Being able to say exactly what the guest wants is enough to explain the problem.

"Xiao Mister, what is the result of the calculation?" This time it was the younger brother who spoke.

Qiao Ran touched her chin, pretending to be deep.It's not that he can't figure it out, but that the answer is hard to say.

Let's be honest, offending people, telling lies, and smashing the signboard, it's really not a good choice.

The father of the two brothers has been hospitalized for several months because of cancer.During this time, the old man's health has improved a lot, and the old man's [-]th birthday will be in half a month. The family wanted to take the old man out to celebrate.

You can ask the doctor, but the doctor said that the old man only seems to have improved on the surface, and his condition is still unstable, so he is not allowed to leave the hospital.

Because of the old father's illness, the two brothers also searched a lot of information on the Internet these days, and read a lot of stories about how doctors cheated patients with money.

Originally, such a major matter concerning life should not be believed in unfounded rumors, but the two of them saw that the old man was really fine, and they were faintly shaken.

In addition, the old man himself did not want to be stuffy in the ward all day, clamoring to be discharged from the hospital.

After such a commotion, the hearts of the two brothers were even more shaken.That's right, who wants to stay in the hospital and suffer if he can be discharged from the hospital?It's money-burning and troublesome.

But even though they thought so, the two of them were still a little uneasy, and they were entangled and upset. A friend introduced Guiling, saying that if Mr. Xiao calculated that the old man was fine, he would be discharged from the hospital, and if there was something wrong, he would continue to live. Where can't you celebrate a birthday?

The two brothers didn't believe it at all. A fortune teller is at best a charlatan. Can he really count a flower?

But I couldn't make up my mind, so I simply gave up and handed over the decision to the fortune teller.

Even if his condition suddenly deteriorated outside, it was Qiao Ran's fault, not theirs.One hundred questions about this life, just try to find peace of mind.

After weighing for a long time, Qiao Ran still felt that he shouldn't lie to others. This is his bottom line in fortune-telling and his bottom line in life. "The old man has three days to live."

"What?" The two of them thought that Qiao Ran would say that they could be discharged from the hospital or continue to be hospitalized, but they suddenly came up with an answer that was not an option.

The two brothers didn't hear clearly, but Lao Li who had been standing beside him did.Right now, he was standing behind the two of them, anxiously waving his hands at Qiao Ran, trying his best to make his mouth more subtle.

Qiao Ran was facing Lao Li, so he naturally saw his little movements, tilted his head and thought about it, sweating and falling asleep?What's this?Is it a disease?

I couldn't help but sighed in my heart, tsk tsk, this old Li knows a lot.Then he said the words to the two of them again with great certainty.
