"It's more real than real gold. Master Mei said that my daughter's romantic luck will come soon. If she is good at seizing the opportunity, she can get married this year. Look, I even asked for a marriage talisman for my daughter. Master Mei said that she should wear it on her body to attract romantic luck." Wei Dalei said as he took out a pendant tied with a red string.
Wei Dabao turned the pendant over and over in his hand to examine it. It wasn't bad looking, it was obviously made of glass, but he quickly spotted the flaw: "Didn't they say it meant luck in love? Why is this pendant a chrysanthemum?"
Wei Dalei coughed. He really didn't pay attention to whether it was a peach blossom or some other flower. "Who cares if it's a chrysanthemum or a peach blossom? As long as I can attract the flowers, that's all that matters."
Wei Dabao was a little suspicious, "Which coal master are you talking about?"
"He's the Coal Master outside the city. He's very good at predicting marriages. People from dozens of miles around come to him for predictions. People from other provinces come too. He's very famous."
"I think he's just bragging. I heard there's a coal miner who loves to fool people. He sells a glass pendant for a hundred dollars. He's going to make a fortune from this."
Wei Dalei quickly covered her mouth and said, "Wife, don't say anything nonsense. As the saying goes, sincerity is the key to success. Please put this pendant on our daughter and maybe it will really attract love."
Wei Dabao nodded obediently: "Okay..."
The couple was discussing their daughter's lifelong affairs when they heard someone knocking on the door.
It turned out that her second sister-in-law Dou Wan knew that she had been bored in the hospital for a few days, so she specially asked a few sisters to come over in the evening to play cards with her to relieve her boredom.
Wei Dalei had just hurriedly cleared the dishes to make room for his wife. The women who had arrived were all prominent wives in the county, wives of the county's top officials. If anyone didn't give them face, they would all scramble to come.
It was very easy to get two tables together.
One table was for people who lived in the same compound as Dou Wan, and the other table was for people from the Public Security Bureau, all of whom were invited by Dou Wan.
The ladies are all in their thirties and forties. They like to chat and go shopping together.
Sometimes we get together to play mahjong. We don’t play for big money, but just to kill time and improve our relationship.
Wei Dalei was serving the ladies, serving them tea and water.
Several wives of the Public Security Bureau workers were flattered to see the director personally pouring water for them. They felt they couldn't handle it and had to stand up and take the water themselves every time.
This delayed everyone's card game, and Wei Dabao's chubby mouth pouted a little. Wei Dalei quickly said with a smile: "Don't be polite, everyone. I'm your waiter today. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming to accompany my wife and have fun. You guys play cards and I'll take care of the water."
The wives secretly envied Wei Dabao in their hearts. Look at how good other men are. In order to make their wives happy, they even serve them, the wives who are subordinates.
No wonder people say that first-class men are capable but have no temper, and they spoil their wives like children; second-class men turn their wives into men; and third-class men drive their wives crazy.
It seems the more capable a man is, the more he takes his wife seriously. No, I have to have a fight when I get home tonight.
The ladies were all laughing and joking when someone asked about Wei Dabao's condition. Wei Dabao, while playing cards, said, "The disease came on really fast. I was just standing there and couldn't stand any longer. I was lucky that Xiaolin was there and rushed me to the hospital. Otherwise, you wouldn't be playing cards with me today, but saying goodbye to my body."
The ladies sighed and lamented the impermanence of life, and then the second sister-in-law Dou Wan spoke.
