My years as a fortune teller

I slowly returned to the alley, with more and more doubts in my heart.Forget it, take a break, and try to ask another hexagram after getting up.The last time he failed at Jiufeng Mountain, I don't know if it will happen again this time.

As I was walking towards the courtyard with this thought in mind, I suddenly saw a figure lying on the courtyard door furtively.Could it be that this is a thief? I'm too brave to come to this yard to steal things. Don't you want to mess around?

Thinking of this, I took a few steps forward lightly, and then rushed over.Before this person could see who I was, I threw him to the ground.I haven't figured it out yet, I just punched my head and covered my face.

This kid wants to struggle, shit, I weigh more than 200 kilograms, you can break free if you want to.The kid hadn't received a few punches before he started yelling and admitting defeat.I certainly didn't mean to let him go, but his begging for mercy also drew the rest of the people out.

Among these people are people from our yard and people from other yards.When Meng Xiaoxia saw that it was me who was beating someone, she immediately stepped forward and pulled her away.I wanted to go up and kick him, but suddenly I realized that this person looked like Mr. Meng's apprentice, Lai Yuejin.

As soon as I thought about it badly, I immediately pretended to be drunk and said, "Damn, this kid is lying on the yard door and watching secretly. He's not a peeping tom, he's also a thief. Xiaoxia, call and go to the police station immediately. ’ My tongue tied a little as I said those words.

Lai Yuejin covered his face when he heard this, looked at me and said, "Look, do you think I'm a thief? You beat people without seeing clearly, and even beat me to death. It's dark!" He said, covering his cheeks with tears streaming down his face.

I hiccupped, took a closer look and quickly said, "Oh, isn't this Xiao Lai? Who beat you up like this? Let me tell you Brother Zhang, if you hit my brother, you hit me in the face .Let’s go now, and give him a good meal.” He burped again as he spoke.

Meng Xiaoxia hurriedly covered her nose and said: "How much wine did you drink? Oh, it's true, Weiwei, you two help each other and help Brother Zhang in first. I'll go and bandage Brother Lai. It's all right now." Everyone go away!"

Shen Weiwei and Zheng Qing came over to support me, entered the courtyard and returned to my room.After the two girls helped me to lie down, Zheng Qing twisted a wet towel and put it on my forehead.Then the two girls saw that nothing was wrong, and walked out of my room one after the other.

In fact, I wasn't drunk at all. Today I was mainly talking about things, and I didn't drink much at all. I didn't even finish a bottle of wine.Compared to that day at Grandpa Sun's house, he drank much less.

I just don't know what happened to the two old men today, it makes me feel weird.It seems that there is a feeling of leaving a last word. Did the old man feel something, so he told me like this, it could not be that the old man's time has come!

After thinking of this, I sat up slowly.But it's wrong to think about it. Am I missing something somewhere?I rubbed my forehead and thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't figure it out.

That's when I heard an "Ouch" from outside, and Meng Xiaoxia's voice: "Why, a big man, why are you so afraid of this pain? You said you were in a good yard and didn't come in, so you insisted on lying on the door blind Look. It's all right now, I was beaten up as a thief."

I covered my mouth and snickered twice, then threw down the towel, opened the door and walked out unsteadily.Lai Yuejin, who was sitting in the yard applying medicine, saw me coming out, jumped up from the chair and hid behind Meng Xiaoxia's buttocks.

I deliberately pretended not to know, sat on the steps, took out a cigarette and lit one for myself.Then he looked at Lai Yuejin and said, "Little Lai, why can't my good brother hide when he sees me? Brother, I didn't offend you, right? You can't keep hiding from me like this, can you?"

Lai Yuejin slowly leaned out half of his body from behind Meng Xiaoxia and said, "Brother, I still dare to see you. Look at how you beat me up like this. If I come out again, I won't be beaten to death by you." here."

I pretended to be surprised when I heard it, and then said, "Did I hit someone?" After pretending to think for a long time, I slapped my head and said, "Yes, it seems that I hit someone. I remember I hit a thief. How could it be possible to beat you? Could it be that you are the thief?"

When Lai Yuejin heard this, he ran to the door of Mr. Meng's house in fright.Then he said to me: "I just wanted to see if Sailang was there. Who knew you would come up from behind and beat me half to death. This would still call me a thief. You are too much!"

Meng Xiaoxia hurried forward, pulled me back and said, "Brother Zhang, you really misunderstood. Although Sailang didn't bite him, he was very timid. Even seeing Sailang, his legs became weak from fright."

When I heard this, I looked at Meng Xiaoxia and said, "You can guarantee this matter, he is definitely not here to be a thief? If Mr. Meng comes back, you will be responsible for anything missing at home." Then I turned and went into my room .

I went back to the room and took out the money in my pocket and counted it. I took out a few and came to the door and looked at Lai Yuejin and said, "Here, I was wrong just now. I will use this money to see a doctor. If it is not enough, come ask me again." want."

Lai Yuejin's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he didn't dare to come to get the money.I went over and grabbed the kid, stuffed the money into his hand, and said angrily: "You kid didn't know how to shout at that time, or if you struggled and ran away, it would be over."

Lai Yuejin stretched his neck forward, swallowed his saliva and said, "Brother, look at how strong your body is. After you threw me down, I couldn't move. No matter how hard you made me struggle. And your fist It's as big as a bowl, can I resist it?"

I picked up my fist and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Well, I will treat you as unlucky. I also drank some wine just now, so I was a little dizzy and didn't see clearly. Normally, I wouldn't be like this Mess." Said and patted him.

I don't know if it's because of the strength in my hand, or if this kid did it on purpose.I slapped him, and he looked like he was about to fall to the ground.After taking two or three shots in a row, this kid almost fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

Meng Xiaoxia looked at us and smiled, but didn't say much.But from her eyes, I seemed to see a trace of panic.Could it be that there is already something that cannot be said here, and is there such a flustered look in his eyes?

But everything in the yard remains the same, and nothing has changed.The only thing that was different was that the door of Mr. Meng's room was tightly locked, but the door curtain was pulled up high, and the glass on the door was shaking so that people's eyes hurt a little.

The door of Mr. Meng's house is still the old-fashioned door.There are two panes of glass above and a carved wooden panel on one side.This kind of door was very common in courtyard houses in the past, but it is rare now.However, temples and Taoist temples in some places also use such wooden doors.

There is nothing suspicious about this, but why are Meng Xiaoxia's eyes flustered?Oh, by the way, it's Lai Yuejin's problem.What is this kid doing here today? He clearly knows that Mr. Meng is not on a business trip today.And came here on purpose, is there any purpose?

Thinking of this, I walked to Lai Yuejin's side again, patted him lightly and said, "Brother, I was really sorry just now. Your elder brother, I had a drink with two old friends today, and I will invite you when I have time tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. You drink as an apology."

Lai Yuejin was nervous when he heard it, and then said loudly: "Brother Zhang, I can't drink. The master said that I am not allowed to drink, and that people who drink will delay things." Then he whispered in my ear: " Brother Zhang, I'll call you tomorrow. Make an appointment and I'll treat you to a drink."

Then he patted me, turned around and walked out of the yard.I scratched the back of my head, looked at Meng Xiaoxia and said, "Why did he come, and left without saying anything?" Meng Xiaoxia shook her head helplessly.

At this moment, Lai Yuejin suddenly ran in, looked at me and said, "Sorry, I forgot the business." Then he ran to Meng Xiaoxia's side.Although there was some distance between them and me, the boy deliberately raised his voice a decibel and said, "Sister Xia, Master wants me to tell you to prepare with confidence!" After speaking, he turned around and ran out again...
