As the title says, today’s extra update is naturally because it’s Cheng Xiaoshi’s birthday!
July 13th is the day when Lao Jia published this book, which is also Cheng Shi’s adoption day and birthday, so I will add another chapter~
Happy birthday to Cheng Shi, and happy weekend to everyone~
...
At six o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still scorching.
Cheng Jia squatted in the shade at the entrance of the alley, picking his toes, and listened with interest to the fortune teller at the stall next door.
The guy running the stall was new and he had never seen him in the nearby park.
As for his ability...it's just so-so, he just makes a living by talking.
Standing in front of the stall at this time was a young couple. With their youthful faces and clear eyes, they were obviously students from a nearby technical school.
It’s really easiest to make money when you’re young.
As the little girl came out of the supermarket and saw the fortune-telling stall, she couldn't move and insisted on dragging her boyfriend to have her fortune told. The male student sneered at this but couldn't resist and was dragged over.
Without saying a word, the master handed out paper and pen and asked them to write a word.
The little girl asked curiously: "Master, I haven't told you what it is yet?"
The master laughed and waved his hand, saying, "If you don't consider this a match, I'll give you some money."
With just these words, the girl smiled and pulled the boy's sleeve, saying, "Look, look, I told you that my predictions are accurate, but you still don't believe me. He knows that I'm here to predict marriage."
The male student secretly rolled his eyes, smiled and patted his girlfriend's head, while avoiding her sight and silently said to the master:
"It's fine if it's cheaper, otherwise it's not worth it."
The master curled his lips, stretched out five fingers and scratched his head, which meant: 50% off.
The male student was still not satisfied, but he couldn't resist his girlfriend's interest, so he could only sigh and take the money.
Seeing that the money had been paid, the little girl nervously wrote the word "real" on the paper. The male student said helplessly:
“Why are you writing my name?”
The little girl laughed and said, "Humph, I just want to see if you are sincere to me!"
After seeing this word, Cheng Jia raised his head and looked at the boy for the first time. After just a glance, he came to the conclusion: he is not as good-looking as Xiaoshi.
The master happily picked up the calligraphy, looked at it for a long time, and muttered:
“Reality, complexity is reality.
The upper part is called "roof", which looks like a house and means a prosperous family; the lower part is called "string", which is often wrapped around the waist and often symbolizes a lot of wealth.
The two of you have good fortunes. If you can support each other and love each other, it will definitely be a good match."
After the master finished speaking, the three people present, Cheng Jia and the male student all curled their lips, but the little girl looked expectant, and kept pulling her boyfriend and saying:
"Did you hear that? We are a perfect match.
But Master, I wrote in simplified Chinese, why do you have to count it as traditional Chinese?"
The master said solemnly: "It is not easy to have a prosperous family with abundant wealth.
From the simplified to the complex, it means that the two of you have a bumpy road in your relationship, and you both need to stick to your own heart. "
The male student was obviously unhappy after hearing this. He glared at the master, but saw him happily raising his ear with a cigarette between his ears.
The male student was stunned, then laughed out of anger and pretended to hit the boy, but after showing his fists he nodded helplessly.
The master received the signal and immediately put on a smiling face: "But I think both of you are people of deep love. Good things also take time and effort, and they will eventually bear fruit.
If you two get married in the future, don't forget to leave a glass of wedding wine in the direction of my stall when you serve the wine, so that I can also share in the good fortune."
The little girl left contentedly after hearing this, but when the two turned around, the boy rolled his eyes and dropped half a pack of cigarettes on the stall.
The master picked up the cigarette box and saw that there was only half a pack of cigarettes inside, and they were the cheapest ones. He kept muttering "What a loss".
Cheng Jia saw it, smiled and said nothing.
After a while, Cheng Shi came back with a small schoolbag.
Today he did not walk back by himself, but was driven back by his classmate's mother. Today was his classmate's birthday, and the child's parents held a birthday party and invited all the children to play.
Cheng Shi didn't want to go at first, but when Cheng Jia heard that he could cook one less meal, he sent him away.
At this time, the person came back. He hurriedly wiped his hands on the canvas of the stall next door and went to greet him.
The master spat in annoyance and looked at the muddy handprints on his two feet. He didn't know whether to wipe them off or not.
When Cheng Jia led little Cheng Shi past the alley again, the stall owner saw that little Cheng Shi had been looking at him, so he said teasingly:
"Brother, why don't you tell this kid's fortune?"
Cheng Jia squinted at the master and sneered, "How much do you want to pay?"
"?"
Listen to what you are saying!?
Who gives money to whom?
The master's face fell: "Why are you eating and taking at the same time? Aren't you afraid of teaching your child bad habits? Your son is listening."
Cheng Xiaoshi tilted his head and repeated Lao Jia's words: "How much do you want to pay?"
"???"
you......
OK, OK, OK.
The master laughed angrily. He threw the half pack of cigarettes in his hand on the stall and said unhappily, "Is it enough?"
To be honest, Lao Jia was a little tempted, but Cheng Shi curled his lips and returned the cigarette.
"He doesn't smoke, change to something else."
"????"
No, you picked it?
Am I begging you to tell my fortune or what?! ?
Okay, even if I beg you!
I have to have my fortune told today.
The master was furious. He quickly took back the cigarette box and paid another 5 yuan, saying, "Is that enough?"
Xiao Chengshi thought for a moment, then turned to Lao Jia and said, "If he really gives me money, he must have bad intentions. Let's go back."
