Fan Yingying sat on a small stool in front of the hexagram stall with her things. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The old man asked her, "Girl, are you measuring words or divination?" Is it to see love? Or is it a career? ”
Fan Yingying originally didn't agree with these in her heart, and said casually: "You just take a look, I don't understand anyway." ”
The old man stared at Fan Yingying and looked at her face carefully, and asked Cheng Chen to pinch her fingers, her face suddenly changed, and she stared at Fan Yingying in shock, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "Girl, your eight characters were originally quite heavy, but they brought too strong evil energy, which caused their life to be too weak, which is not very good!" ”
When Fan Yingying heard this, she didn't believe it at all, but she was a little embarrassed in her heart, and accused the old man with a calm face: "You are really interesting, other people's fortune tellers are all good to listen to, you are good, what do you not hear, don't you want to make money?" If I hadn't seen you an old man basking in the sun here, it was not easy, and I wanted to take care of your business, I wouldn't be a hexagram, why are you like this! Not only did he not appreciate it, but he actually cursed me! ”
The old man hurriedly explained: "Girl, I just see that you are a good person, so I will be honest with you, or I will be okay to pick up the guests and not be happy to listen to it, isn't it sick, and besides, I am so old, there is really no need to lie to you." ”
The old man asked her, "Have you had good luck lately?" Think about it yourself. ”
Fan Yingying thought about it, since she beat the female ghost and let herself go, it seems that she has indeed been transferred, first her father's unit is willing to continue to be responsible, and then her brother's work has eyebrows, and she has always been able to pick up a little money recently, as long as she takes the bus, there must be a seat, and even the square dance downstairs that has been annoying her has stopped because of the demolition, and just now, she bought a lottery ticket casually, and actually won the 5,000 yuan jackpot.
But maybe it's all just a coincidence, right?
Fan Yingying thought, maybe the old man said these words, it was just a general means of fortune telling, first say something bad, and then let her spend money to break the disaster, to put it bluntly, it is still a cheat.
Thinking of this, she settled her mind, and just wanted to refute it, the old man said again: "Everything in this world is prosperous and must decline, do you think that you can usually encounter so many good things one after another?" Luck is always good and bad, if you think about it, who can be particularly lucky all the time, is this kind of thing possible? Is it normal? Can you really settle down now? ”
Fan Yingying didn't answer, she didn't believe what the old man in front of her said at all, she only felt that her kindness had been let down, she took out twenty yuan from her wallet and threw it to the old man, turned around and left.
She walked around the street for a while, a little tired, and didn't take the bus, but took a taxi home.
When she got home, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and recently the community she rented began to be demolished, and the houses along the street were demolished a lot.
The path under her feet was so potholed that she tripped and straightened up to kick the stone that was in the way. She carefully looked at the gravel under her feet, and sighed a little, originally she was thinking about staying at home for two days during the summer vacation and returning to school early, so that she could not only live outside with Gao Bo, the two of them would be close to each other, but also find a temporary job to earn some pocket money after the start of school, which she had come over during the previous holidays.
She sighed, she thought that pie in the sky would let her pick up a piece of jade pendant and get rid of poverty and become rich in one step, but she didn't expect it to be a scourge.
Fan Yingying pursed her lips and thought about it, fortunately, she bought a scratch ticket today, and she won 5,000 yuan for two yuan, which can be regarded as comfort compensation.
Thinking about it like this, her mood was relieved a little, and she pondered that when she returned home tonight, she would stay at home from tomorrow onwards, and wait for Gao Bo to come back.
Walking along the path, on both sides are the kind of small barns in the past, the old buildings used to be, and now because the demolition aisle is full of debris, Fan Yingying carefully walks through the middle of these garbage.
I also saw a half-new sofa halfway down the road, and it is estimated that some people just don't want to throw things in the aisle outside.
She walked around the edge of the sofa, and as soon as she looked up, she saw Mrs. Li, who lived on the fifth floor, walking towards her.
Fan Yingying hurriedly stopped and greeted her: "Grandma Li." ”
Old Mrs. Li didn't say anything, but just looked at Fan Yingying with a very strange gaze.
Fan Yingying was used to it, and she didn't take it seriously.
This old lady Li lives downstairs in the rented house of Fan Yingying and Gao Bo, widowed, and is an old man with a very eccentric temper.
It is said that she came down from a post in the railway, the work is good, and she has labor insurance when she retires, but she has always lived alone, I heard that her wife died five or six years ago, and the neighbors said that she had a pair of children, but Fan Yingying has never seen anyone from her house since she moved here.
People like to be quiet when they get older, and Mrs. Li has always looked down on Fan Yingying and Gao Bo, and felt that the two children were too noisy, so she came to the door several times and asked them to be quiet and not to stumble.
Fan Yingying reasoned with the loss, and thought that Mrs. Li was a lonely old man who was very pitiful, and every time she met, she always greeted her warmly, and Mrs. Li always ignored her, and she didn't care.
Passing by Mrs. Li, Fan Yingying didn't look back and didn't see Mrs. Li standing in place, looking at her with complicated eyes.
Fan Yingying carried things into the corridor of her house, climbed the stairs step by step, and when she passed by the fifth floor, she saw that the door of Mrs. Li's house was wide open, and a bunch of people were making a lot of noise there, Fan Yingying glanced in through the door, and wondered in her heart, usually this old lady Li's house was cold and deserted, and she never saw outsiders, but now she saw a few people supporting an elderly woman to comfort, the woman was crying with tears all over her face, choking and muttering, why did her mother just leave?
Fan Yingying just turned around to leave, when she heard this, her body suddenly froze, and she turned around in a daze, and saw that the room was clearly crying.
This, Mrs. Li is dead?
The corridor was too narrow for the stretcher to come up, and there were two men in the room carrying the body of Mrs. Li out of it, covered with a piece of cloth, and the dead silence of white flowers.
Fan Yingying hurriedly turned around and walked upstairs, took two steps and couldn't help but glance back, and caught a glimpse of the bulging bulge under the white cloth.
Fan Yingying was stunned, stood stupidly in place and remained motionless for a long time before she came to her senses and ran back home.
