Chapter 57
After waiting and waiting, Mo Xiang didn't come upstairs. Mo Yan pushed open the balcony door strangely. Downstairs, Mo Xiang was arguing with Heitan with a red face, while the peddler kept waving his hands in embarrassment, and backed away again and again. .

"Whoever gave the silver first will own the red fruit. Why should I share it with you?"

Li De looked impatient. He was just about to go upstairs when he saw this maid excitedly heading towards the peddler. He immediately changed his route and put the broken silver in the peddler's hand first, saying that he would buy the basket. red fruit.

Hmph, last time this rude and pungent maid made trouble for him. The two of them quarreled in the street, which made him feel very ashamed. Li De suddenly felt an indescribable pleasure when he was about to come out.

It was almost time for dinner, and the peddlers on both sides of the street were carrying empty baskets, Mo Xiang looked around, only the peddler in front of him had lychees, and if my lady wanted to eat them, she would buy them no matter what, Heitantou in front of her It must be intentional to step in!
"Hey, there's a whole basket here, can't you spare some for me?"

Although Mo Xiang was angry, she was still nice to speak. If the other party knew the current affairs, she probably wouldn't refuse.There is a big basket full, how can King Nanping eat so much?

"Excuse me."

With a smug look in Li De's eyes, with a sullen face, he pretended to be serious, "This is not for people to eat. Our master's horse has worked hard all the way, so we need to comfort it, otherwise it stops halfway and loses its temper. Is good?"

The other party spoke in a strange way, satirizing the old horse in Yushi's mansion, Mo Xiang couldn't hold back immediately, her lady wanted to eat this lychee, so she wanted to compete with the horse for food?

"Heitantou, what do you mean? Your master knows that?"

Mo Xiang put her hips on her hips and squinted her eyes. She was sure that it was Heitantou's careful intention to find trouble, but King Nanping didn't know about it.Besides, a big hole was opened in the wall of the inn a few days ago. This kind of secret thing is a disadvantage for my young lady. For the sake of reputation, the young lady is very forbearing. Must not be the same as a pug.

"I don't know, it's none of your business. I have already given you the silver. This red fruit has nothing to do with you."

Li De raised his eyebrows, gestured to the shopkeeper, and was about to go upstairs. When Mo Xiang saw this, she immediately became angry. She had never seen such a villain who didn't know etiquette. She turned her head and said to the shopkeeper, "Little Brother, I know that it is not easy for you to earn money, I will pay twice the price, and the fruit belongs to me."

"This... This is not acceptable, people gave money."

The shopkeeper quickly waved his hands, not knowing what to do, he struggled and said, "My house is not far from here, otherwise I'll go back to the village to pick some and send them over before dark."

Lychees are everywhere in Luzhou, but it’s late, and the villagers have already returned home. The shopkeeper arrived in Luzhou city a little late because of the delay on the road, and he was worried that this big basket would not be sold. There are customers.

"But I don't want that much, how can I let you run errands?"

Mo Xiang knew that it was not easy for these people. When it was dark and the city gate was closed, the peddler in front of him would only have to sleep overnight in the common bunk of the inn. People can't afford to offend, so they came up with such a compromise.

"Heitantou, let's wait and see!"

Mo Xiang shook the handkerchief, and went upstairs angrily, thinking about how to explain to her own lady when she went back, not to mention that she didn't buy lychees, and even quarreled with Heitantou again.

Mo Yan saw it, and when she saw Mo Xiang going upstairs empty-handed, her eyes flashed teasingly, pretending not to know, "Mo Xiang, why did you have such a flirtatious chat with Guanshi Li?"

"Miss, I'm sorry, the maidservant failed to buy lychees."

Mo Xiang first admitted his mistake, and then talked about Li De's various crimes like a cannonball. There is that kind of master who is like a fairy, and it is so unreasonable to be a servant.

It was a hot day, and Lu's appetite was not good. For dinner, she only ordered some porridge and side dishes. Mo Yan thought that she could finally stay in Luzhou, and she should go out to taste the local specialties. She saw a good restaurant not far away.

At dinner time, various pedestrians on the road and hawkers on both sides of the road packed their things one after another and prepared to go home.The master and the servant had just arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, where a waiter in the restaurant was gesturing non-stop with an old man in ragged clothes.The old man looked very old, with a white beard, a red face, no wrinkles on his face, tattered clothes, but the starch was clean, and the edges of the cuffs and hem were damaged and white. He had a cloth bag hanging diagonally and carried it on his shoulder A flag, "Six Yaos test people and things, seek good luck and avoid evil".

"This girl, why don't you come to this old man to take a test? Personnel and everything are fine."

The old man was arguing with the clerk, his eyes lit up immediately when he saw Mo Yan, and his beard curled up, "You and I are destined, so what if you only need two hundred coins?"

"Oh my god, two hundred wen, why don't you grab it!"

Mo Xiang is like a kitten with fried hair, his eyes are round and round. At the current price, one penny can buy two steamed buns, and two hundred cash is a month's wages for a lot of strong laborers. The appearance of my young lady taking advantage is really annoying.

"How about it, girl, are you interested? As long as you put the three copper coins in your hands, clasp your hands tightly, think about the things you have measured, let the measured information be integrated into the copper coins, put your palms together and shake them, put them into the eight trigrams plate, and throw them six times By forming a hexagram, you can know what you are measuring."

Seeing that Mo Yan was very interested, the old man tried his best to explain the usage of Liuyao, and took out a gossip plate from the bag in front of him.Seeing that he was relieved, the clerk of the restaurant immediately went into the inner hall. He didn't want to waste time with this crazy old man. He had heard before that there were people who could measure characters, read physiognomy, and touch bones. He hadn't heard that copper coins can predict good luck .

"it is good."

Mo Yan thought for a moment, then immediately nodded her head in agreement. Perhaps others would regard this person as a lunatic, but she was different. She was so old but had a rosy complexion. At least she knew how to take care of her.

Mo Xiang stomped her feet and didn't comment on her lady's prodigal behavior. Anyway, it was only two hundred coins. In case she ran out of money in the future, she returned to the capital and continued to blackmail the two ladies, Li and Zhao. She suddenly felt that this was a way to get rich Shortcut to the road.

According to the old man's instructions, Mo Yan threw a total of six times. The old man furrowed his brows tightly, his demeanor changed, and he became extremely serious, muttering words that Mo Yan could not understand.

"I want to test someone's luck because she has been seriously ill before."

Mo Yan observed the old man's face, and then slowly revealed it.Mo Xiang was at the side, stunned for a moment, and realized in an instant that the person her lady mentioned was the most noble woman in Dayue, the Empress.

"This person is dead."

The old man shook his head and sighed, "Girl, the person you tested is dead. Not only is he dead, but his bones are probably turned into slag."

Mo Yan just wanted to continue asking, but the old man picked up a big banner behind him, hurried away, and said as he walked, "A vision from the sky, demon stars are rampant!"

"What?"

Seeing her young lady's thoughtful expression, Mo Xiang was confused, and wanted to catch up with the old man to give money, but in the blink of an eye, she disappeared in the alley.Mo Xiang stomped her feet, returned annoyed, and whispered, "Miss, don't worry about it, maybe you are a liar?"

"Then what if it's true?"

Mo Yan looked at the sky, and there was a smear of red sunset glow on the far horizon, covering the entire Luzhou City, which looked very strange. She shook her head and sighed, and walked into the restaurant with Mo Xiang. For some reason, her intuition told her that the old man Everything she said is true, maybe others don't understand six-line fortune-telling, but she knows a little about it in modern times, and I only heard that it is very accurate, especially when it comes to fortune-telling.

The Empress has passed away, and she has been gone for a few days without getting any news, but what does the old man mean by the second half of the sentence?There is no bone residue left, is it a miserable death, or is it taking longer than expected?There is no impenetrable wall in the world. After the heavy fog, the truth will be revealed soon.
