Little wealth

"Sir, we are not here to tell the fortune. We want to see how many days." Zhao Amu sat down on the stool in front of the stall, and told the fortune teller that he wanted to tell the date for his son and build a new house for his little one. The son sees it as a good day to get married.

After asking the horoscope, the fortune teller counted with his fingers.

Zhao Amu interjected and said, "Mister, it's best to set the date of entering the house and the date of the child's marriage on the same day, and see if there is a suitable date in the second half of the year."

"The sixth day of next month is a good day. It is advisable to start construction. If you want to build a house, you can start construction at the third hour of that day." The fortune teller pinched his fingers and calculated the time and direction, and told which direction the house faces. .

Then count the days of moving into the house and getting married, "There are two suitable days for your child to get married and move into the new house together. One is at the end of August, and the other is in the twelfth lunar month. I don't know which one you want."

"The one in August is after mid-autumn, on the 29th, and the one in the twelfth lunar month is in the third day of junior high."

Zhao Amu turned to her son and daughter-in-law, "Do you think it's better to be in August or the twelfth lunar month?"

Josh thought for a while, and said: "It's still the one on August 29. Don't we start construction next month? Hurry up and move in at the end of August. There are too many things in the twelfth lunar month, and that will It’s also cold, and the weather in August is really nice, neither hot nor cold.” He thinks it’s mainly because the twelfth lunar month is too cold, if he can move to the new house earlier, who wants to live in the old house now and enjoy the cold wind!

He wanted to build the house before winter, just to have a less cold winter.

"Mum, I also think August is a good day." Hearing what his brother said, Zhao Hu felt that August was also a good day.

"Hehe, since you have all agreed, let's choose August 29th, so that you can marry Brother Chen into our family earlier." Zhao Amu is also quite satisfied with the days of August. , The earlier the date is set, the son can get married and marry his husband earlier.

Now that his son and daughter-in-law had agreed, he went back to confirm the date in August with the fortune teller.

After confirming the date, the fortune teller calculated the time and reminded some things that need attention.

"I don't know. If we want to dig a well at home, where is the best place to dig it? Do we have to pick a day to dig it?" Josh remembered something and asked.

The fortune teller reported a few good days, "When your new house is built, just dig it on the left hand side of the gate."

"Hey, okay, sorry to bother you sir." Zhao Amu got the date written on red paper by the fortune teller, paid a string of copper coins to the fortune teller, got up and was about to leave, "Let's go, we all have the date It looks good."

"Huh?" Mr. Banxian touched the copper plate, his white eyes seemed to be able to see people, and the eyeballs inside moved a bit, looking in a certain direction, and said: "This little husband, can you let me touch it?" A bone?"

Are you calling him?Josh stopped when he was about to walk, and stretched out his hand out of nowhere.

A pair of slightly cool hands held his hands. To his surprise, these hands did not look like the hands of poor people, and there were no calluses on the fingertips.

He stared into the eyes of the Japanese half-immortal, thinking that this half-immortal gentleman was pretending to be blind, right?In his previous life, he knew many fortune tellers who pretended to be shrimps to tell fortunes to others. Most of them used a few words to deceive people.

In turn, Josh felt that maybe he was thinking too much, maybe other people's eyes were invisible, so there was no need to pretend at all.

In his previous life, he worked as a reporter. He traveled to many places with the team, and also investigated and understood the local folk customs in many places. Therefore, he has always held a half-belief attitude towards fortune-telling and horoscope testing. Things are completely wrong, but that doesn't mean that these things are completely right. In short, if you believe in what you have, you have it, and if you don't believe it, you don't have it.

"Your fate..." The fortune teller frowned slightly, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Is there something wrong with my fate?" Josh swallowed subconsciously. Could this fortune teller really see something?At this moment, he suddenly felt a little regretful in his heart. He knew that he should not have stretched out his hand just now.

"No, your fortune is very good, your destiny is rich and powerful, and it will get better and better in the future." The fortune teller let go of his hand and said.

Josh breathed a sigh of relief, put his hand back, took out a piece of silver from his pocket, put it on the table, and said, "Mr. something.

He hurriedly turned his head and said to E Mu and Xiao Hu who were waiting there: "Let's go, the child and his father are still waiting for us, let's go back quickly." , let's go quickly!

"Hey, okay, let's go."

Zhao Amu also heard what the fortune teller said just now about his daughter-in-law being rich and powerful, and couldn't help but feel happy for his son and daughter-in-law. If the daughter-in-law is rich and powerful, doesn't it mean that his son will also become rich and powerful?And the little grandson in the future will also be able to eat and wear warm clothes, and will not have to live a hard life in the future. How can this not make people happy?

When the person walked away, the fortune teller behind picked up a piece of silver that was put down on the table and put it in his arms, and murmured, "It's strange, how can someone change their fate against the sky?" Was he wrong? Or is it true that someone changed his life against the sky?

There are still people coming and going on the street, and no one comes to tell fortunes in front of the small stalls.

After a while, a man in black came over to help the blind fortune-teller put away the stall, and the tall man led the blind man back the way he came...

***

When they came back, seeing his son's aggrieved face and red eyes, and people around him looking at Carpenter Zhao with condemning eyes, Josh almost didn't laugh out loud.

"Em~" The child stretched out his hand to hug him as soon as he saw him. This time, Josh reached out and took the son into his arms, and took a sip on the child's tender face, "Hey, baby Didn't you listen? Didn't I tell you to go and come back? Why are your eyes still red, do you miss me?"

The little baby buried her head in his neck and didn't speak, probably thinking about it.

Seeing an empty bowl on the table, Josh asked, "What did you eat just now?"

The child didn't answer, but turned to look at Dad.It was the child's father who answered, "I ordered a wonton for him."

"Oh, you guys have eaten wontons. Are you full?" Josh touched his son's belly and found it was a little round. It seemed that he was not too full, but there was something in his stomach.

"We just went to see the date of the husband, and it is scheduled to start next month, and there is still about half a month. Don't we still have to order bricks and tiles, why don't we go and order bricks and tiles first." Josh hugged the child They sat down and asked the boss to serve them a pot of tea.

I originally thought that I made money today and wanted to take everyone to a restaurant to have a good meal, but seeing that the children had already eaten, I thought that they still had a lot of things to do. After asking everyone’s opinions, I decided to It would be nice to have something to eat at this tea stand.

Then I asked their mother and uncle's opinions, and asked for a bowl of noodles for each of them.

Before the pot of tea was finished, their noodles came.

Josh asked the boss again for a small bowl, made a small bowl for himself, pushed the rest to another man, and said, "You're going to eat, we have to go shopping and order bricks and tiles after eating, I'm running out of time." It feels like it's almost noon after arriving in the town, and there are not as many people on the street as when they first came in.

"Is yours enough?" Zhao He asked, looking at the big bowl pushed over, and then at the small bowl in front of Fu Lang.

Josh glanced at his own bowl and said, "Ah, I have enough, you can eat it, if you don't have enough, you can ask for another bowl." Usually when they eat as a family, he and his children should have the smallest amount of food.It's not that he ate less, but that the family ate too much.

He felt that their child was still young, and when he grew up, he might be just like his own father...

"Okay, I just ate half a bowl of wontons." Hearing Fu Lang's words, Zhao He took the bowl and chopsticks, picked up the noodles with the chopsticks, and took a big bite, feeling that the noodles were not as delicious as his own Fu Lang's.

Zhao Hu was outspoken, saying at other people's stalls that the food made by others was not as delicious as his brother's, and he was not afraid of being kicked out by the boss.

While eating the noodles, Josh even fed the child two mouthfuls. Maybe the child had eaten just now, but now he turned his face away after taking two mouthfuls, so he didn't continue to feed the child.

After a few people ate noodles, they paid the money and said hello to the owner of the tea stall, and put their cart and fish here, asking the boss to take a look for them, and they will come back after shopping.

Then they went to order the blue bricks and tiles used to build the house. These things had to be ordered in advance, and they paid a [-]% deposit. When the time came, the store would send someone to deliver them to their homes.

After ordering the blue bricks and tiles, Josh thought about his brother-in-law's marriage again, and asked his mother, "When Xiaohu gets married, do we still want to wear those things? Should we go to the embroiderer to make them, or buy them?" Go back and do it yourself?"

"We can make it by ourselves, and we have to make the wedding pillows together," Zhao Amu said.

"Oh, let's go to the cloth shop by the way." By the way, he also wanted to go shopping.

Cloth Village is not far in front, and it was the store where they bought things the last two times. Josh went in familiarly, and all the shopkeepers in the store recognized him.

This time they came to buy things for getting married, and they bought a lot at one time, from wedding wedding clothes to quilts, pillows, quilts and so on.

Thinking that when the family moves into the house, there will be new quilts and pillows, Josh thought of buying the ones from that time together, picked out one piece of cloth and put it aside, and went on to pick out the second piece...
