Just as she was thinking confidently, a noble lady in a cheongsam and a fur coat sat in front of her stall, followed by a servant with a fierce look on her face.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry, we can't tell fortunes after midnight. Please come back tomorrow night at nine o'clock!" Nan Xixi declined politely. Her clear eyes were full of water, revealing an ethereal aura that was untainted by the world. The gleam in her eyes just now was gone without a trace.
"I don't tell fortunes. I just want to ask you to be my daughter-in-law!" Dong Jinrong smiled gently and kindly.
Nan Xiaoxiao was slightly surprised, but acted politely and responded softly, "I'm unlucky with men. I have a tough life. Men who get close to me never have a good ending.
Thank you for your kindness.”
Came here to find a match for her son? Real mother! Nan Xiaoxiao looked at the lady again and couldn't help but wonder, is she here to find someone to match her son with a woman!!!?
"It's okay." The lady smiled gracefully and gently, moving a few feet closer to her. "You have to be strong to do your job!"
"I'll take it as a compliment!"
The noble lady was rather anxious and gently interrupted her refusal, "My son is also unlucky with women. He is unlucky with girls who like him or pursue him. From childhood to adulthood, if you take the initiative to get close to his girls, you will either die or get hurt.
Look how well-matched you two are! You two together are a formidable combination.
Oh, don't worry, my son is alive!!!
And he is not a stupid son with an ugly appearance, he is the young marshal of the Zhan family, with handsome appearance and extraordinary bearing.
Don’t be so quick to reject me, this is for you.”
The lady said, handing her a valuable spring-colored bracelet, "This is the inheritance of our Zhan family's daughter-in-law. It is my sincere gift. Please consider it carefully.
Is it okay? We have to meet each other, right?
Give him a chance!
See you another day."
Dong Jinrong left in a hurry after she finished speaking, without giving Nan Xiaoxiao any chance to refuse.
As we walked out of the alley, a stylish Studebaker stopped.
She got in the car and ordered, "Give me the girl's home address tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Madam Zhan!"
-
In the alley, Nan Xiaoxiao looked down at the bracelet, frowning slightly. "Oh, isn't this too hasty?" "One is unlucky for men, the other is unlucky for women. If they were together, wouldn't it be a catastrophe, with the whole of humanity suffering? This lady is really not afraid of big trouble."
The pocket on Nan Xixi's waist, embroidered with the Chinese characters Qian Kun, moved slightly. "Xixi, you can't get married! We don't know each other at all!" "You must have ulterior motives to be in such a hurry." "Don't forget the important things!"
Only Nan Xiaoxiao could hear the strange voice coming from inside. She curled her lips and said, "Calm down, everyone. Of course I won't marry, not in this lifetime!
Besides, I haven’t found Grandmother Zushi yet!"
She is a single person, and this idea has never changed since she came here. She thinks she can't and won't do that... otherwise it would be a disaster.
She was thinking-
The unoccupied fortune teller on the side came over with his hands tucked into his sleeves, his eyebrows raised, and he looked at the priceless bracelet in Nan Xiaoxiao's hand with envy, "Little girl, from the first day I saw you, I knew you were blessed and had a bright future!
Do you know what kind of family the Zhan family that lady mentioned is?"
Nan Xiaoxiao put away the bracelet and shook her head, the corners of her lips slightly raised as she packed up her things and prepared to close the stall! "Thank you, I didn't know."
"Hey, girl, our Jiangcheng Zhan family is rich enough to rival a country. The old man of the Zhan family founded the Fujiang Bank, which is the only private bank that can issue currency now! Half of the land and docks in the six southern provinces belong to the Zhan family..."
There are also iron mines, gold mines, etc.
Master Zhan Furen, his eldest son is also the president of our Jiangcheng Chamber of Commerce.
His third son is even more powerful. He has his own army, the Zhan Family Army, with tens of thousands of soldiers under his command. He established the Defense Department in Jiangcheng to protect Jiangcheng. All the warlords in the southern provinces are afraid of him. He is a very low-key person and a rare military talent.
Girl, if you accept this marriage, your life will be settled—" The old man became more and more excited as he spoke, and he talked non-stop.
Nan Xiaoxiao smiled calmly and politely, "Oh, uncle, it's too late, I have to go home, see you tomorrow." After that, she left.
Nan Xiaoxiao never needed to rely on marrying a rich man for a life of luxury. After all, before she traveled through time, she had already earned enough money at the age of nineteen to buy her master a sixty million yuan villa for retirement. Although her family was in trouble, she was here, and everything would be better! One's in-laws were unreliable; a woman still had to be capable on her own.
After reaching the entrance of the alley, there was not a single rickshaw around, so Nan Xiaoxiao could only walk along the pitch-black Xiafei Road towards home.
She was never afraid of walking at night; ghosts would take a detour when they saw her, so she subconsciously looked up at the sky while humming a little tune.
Since she knows astrology, stargazing at night seems to have become her habit.
Suddenly, in the due east of the sky, Mars, Chiron, and Ceres intertwined and moved rapidly in a circular motion, circling faster and faster until they were about to merge into a single star. They circled near the Ziwei constellation and gradually settled at a certain point. Oh my! This is a very bad "fire luck."
Swish-
The three stars converge and become a beam of light, refracting down.
Nan Xiaoxiao seemed to see a flash of lightning passing by a few meters ahead.
This...foreshadows an explosion.
At this moment, a strong light behind her illuminated the road ahead. When she turned around, she saw a car with its headlights on coming from a distance.
The headlights illuminated the corridor-style buildings on both sides of the road. Photos of calendar girls were hung on the glass windows of the shops. The girls' smiles were particularly strange and creepy under the glaring lights.
Oh my God!
"Stop, it's dangerous."
Nan Xiaoxiao waved and shouted at the car, but the man driving the car seemed not to hear her. As he was about to drive past her, she picked up a stone and smashed it at the car window with lightning speed.
Pah-
The passenger side window was mostly shattered.
The car stopped.
