Chapter 038: Starfire
Shui Changning carried the things he bought and returned home.
Lu fell in the kitchen, and today it was her turn to cook.
Smoke curls from the empty window of the small kitchen, like an ethereal mist of forest shadows.
The fence is falling on the firewood, the suburbs are smoking, how do they feel like a home, the two of them are like a little mouth who eloped!
Qianying was busy in the kitchen, and he smelled the scent of rice.
Shui Changning was stunned.
This is a ridiculous idea.
Shui Changning has insight into everything, the entangled relationship around Lu Luo is too deep, and he wading in this muddy water is hurting others and hurting himself.
I can see everything clearly, and Shui Changning's heart is like a hole in fire.
His original personality was cold, and his thoughts flashed, and he quickly cut them off, leaving no spark at all.
When he returned to his room, he saw that the pastries and cloths he had bought had become hot potatoes. He thought about it, and the next day he gave the pastry to the old blacksmith, and the cloth was stuffed in the gap of the bed as a rag.
"How's it going today?" During dinner, Lu Luo asked him.
Shui Changning lowered his head to eat, and only said after a while: "It's the same." ”
Lu Luo thought that he had no business and was depressed, and he didn't dare to mess with him.
Shui Changning has always been expressionless, and Lu Luo didn't see anything.
The next day, Shui Changning continued to tell fortunes on the street, and when he left, he seemed to be carrying a pastry box, Lu Luo wanted to ask, but he had already gone away.
Later, the little blacksmith told Lu Luo: "Mr. is open." ”
Lu Luo was surprised: "He didn't tell me." ”
"It's true, he also bought pastries to thank us for the tea." The little blacksmith said happily, "I sent it twice, so polite!" ”
Shui Changning didn't tell Lu Luo, and Lu Luo didn't mind, so he smiled.
There are more and more people looking for Shui Changning's fortune telling, and what many people are asking for makes Shui Changning feel incredible.
Unless something really important, such as a woman's marriage, a man's future; Anything else to get rich and lucky, he is all nonsense.
So, some people say that he is very accurate in fortune-telling, and some people say that he doesn't know what to say, and he is too young to calculate well.
He earns a little every day, sometimes hundreds of copper plates, sometimes one or two taels of silver, which is actually higher than the old blind man's income.
He handed it over to Lu Luo, because Lu Luo was responsible for the procurement of firewood, rice, oil and salt at home, and Shui Changning didn't care about trivial matters.
"It's not bad, you can support your family!" Lu Luo teased him.
Shui Changning didn't answer, frowned, and was a little unhappy when he said to Lu Luo that he was also "raising a family".
The two of them are not a family.
Lu Luo immediately understood, and changed the topic with a smile.
After that day, Lu Luo felt that Shui Changning was still a little unsafe.
"Do you dislike me so much?" Lu Luo also slandered.
Fortunately, Lu Luo quickly found something to do, and he could leave for a while to alleviate Changning's dissatisfaction with Lu Luo.
It's still Uncle Bai who helped Lu Luo find it.
Look at the things of Feng Shui.
"To the northeast of our town, twenty miles away, there is a Zhuangzi surnamed Qiu. Something has happened in Qiujiazhuang in the past two years, and the patriarch always wants to find someone to take a look at feng shui, but he can't meet a reliable one.
Last time he went into the city to visit Wei Yan, he learned that Wei Yan had closed the shop and scattered the guys, and the old couple was ready to have a step-son and live a down-to-earth life.
He came to see me and asked me if my Xuannu was still there, and if I was free, I would like to invite you to go to Qiujiazhuang and show them Feng Shui. ”
Uncle Bai has relatives and friends in all directions.
Lu Luoguang was waiting for the news of Sang Linzhu at home, and he was also impatient.
There's something to do, she's happy to do.
The villages everywhere have seen some customs and customs, and it is not in vain that she came to southern Xinjiang.
"Did you tell them that I think Feng Shui is about collecting money?" Lu Luo asked.
Uncle Bai nodded: "I said it!" I have come first today to speak of this. Qiujiazhuang is not rich, and they can't take out a few hundred taels of silver, they can only make up twenty taels, and they will give you some rice and grain for the rest. ”
Lu Luo was originally a magician, and he didn't give money or force.
Nowadays, I always think of Master's words, no matter when you want to help the common people, this is accumulating virtue and doing good.
Twenty taels is enough for Lu Luo and Shui Changning to buy two months of rice grain.
In the past, twenty taels was not enough for a meal, but it was far away from Lu Luo.
After the 10,000 taels of silver tickets couldn't be redeemed, she is now wearing a cloth skirt and a wooden hairpin, and her life is very poor.
Twenty taels is also money.
"Okay, I'll take a trip, and you let Patriarch Qiu lead the way." Lu Luo said with a smile.
Uncle Bai was very happy, and felt that this Xuannu was not arrogant, and gave him face very much.
If Uncle Bai didn't move Lu Luo, he would probably feel very embarrassed.
Lu Luo maintained Uncle Bai's prestige, and Uncle Bai naturally couldn't let Lu Luo suffer too much.
On the second day, the Qiu patriarch arrived at Uncle Bai's house, and Uncle Bai said a lot of good things for Lu Luo: "Xuannu is very good at magic, she went to show Wei Yan feng shui last time, and asked for three hundred taels of silver, and when she came to your Zhuangzi, she was looking at my old face."
Twenty taels of silver is not enough for other people's hard-earned money. According to me, you don't care about any food, give an extra 100 catties to the Xuannu. ”
This, Patriarch Qiu accepted very much: "Uncle, don't worry, we will never treat the Xuannu badly." ”
On the same day, Lu Luo met Patriarch Qiu.
Patriarch Qiu is in his sixties this year.
The patriarch of each village is the grandson of the eldest house with that surname.
Patriarch Qiu is the thirty-second eldest grandson of Qiujiazhuang, and after his father died, he became the patriarch.
The patriarch has more power than the patriarch, equivalent to the "emperor" of a village.
In this era, the clan was a place where villages gathered, and its laws were not understandable to later generations, nor were they understood by the loose ethnic groups in Luluo's city.
In the backward villages of the frontier, the prestige of the patriarch is higher.
The law of the county town cannot control those remote villages, so the words of the patriarch are equivalent to the law of a village, that is, the patriarch has the power of life and death in this village.
This is something that the city does not dare to imagine, and it does not exist in the future.
Patriarch Qiu was also kind, and he was very respectful to Lu Luo and Uncle Bai.
"The first time Xuannu went to your Zhuangzi, I was afraid that she would not be familiar with her, so I would go too." Uncle Bai said.
Uncle Bai knew that Lu Luo was from the Central Plains, and he might not know some things about Qiujiazhuang, in case she suffered a loss, Uncle Bai felt that he couldn't stand her.
The road of more than 20 miles was very painful when it was bumpy, but Uncle Bai insisted on going.
Lu Luo wants to go to Qiujiazhuang to see feng shui, and she may not be able to see it properly in one or two days, and she may have to stay for a few days, so she explained to Shui Changning: "Don't go out to tell fortunes these days, so as not to miss the news of Sang Linzhu and keep it at home, right?" ”
Shui Changning nodded, he had already returned to his previous attitude, and he had no opinion on Lu Luo.
"The mountain road is difficult, so be careful." Shui Changning Road.
"It's okay, Uncle Bai will accompany me." Lu Luo said.
Shui Changning nodded.
Early the next morning, Lu Luo followed Uncle Bai and Patriarch Qiu to take the ox cart of Qiujiazhuang and went all the way to Qiujiazhuang.
