Old Man Lu regained the kind and kind expression of his elders, sat back on the sofa, and said while looking at the talisman seal in his hand: "Come here, one for each person, you can take it with you in the future... Well, there's also a town house charm, yes, you can have one in each house, just put it on the entrance of the house. 【】”

The second granddaughter-in-law was full of surprise and dissatisfaction and said, "What's the use of this thing? ”

Old Man Lu raised his eyes and looked at her, and said kindly: "Calm your mind and calm your mind, and get rid of yīn wet Lou."

Jiating, don't underestimate this small piece of paper, if it can really circulate in the social market, a talisman is worth at least 20,000 yuan, and a town house talisman is worth 50,000 yuan. ”

Everyone couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded after hearing this, isn't it just a piece of Huangxi paper? Could it be that this talisman can really have the legendary effect?

After the granddaughter-in-law was taken aback, she snorted coldly as if she was not to be outdone, and said, "So what? ”

Lu Xiangan smiled and said, "Last time when your grandfather was sick, the talisman seal I gave him was drawn ......by Ma Liang."

"Huh?"

Everyone was more and more surprised.

They knew very well that last year, Jiating's grandfather was seriously ill, and once fell into a coma and talked nonsense, and finally Jiating's mother's family invited Mr. Lu to go over and take a look, hoping that this old man who was quite a legend would give a fortune calculation to see what his fate was. At that time, Old Man Lu gave him a talisman to wear in front of him.

As a result, the old man, who was seriously ill that night, woke up.

And now my body has recovered a lot.

According to Jiating's grandfather, he no longer had sleep insomnia and often had nightmares.

"This" Jia Ting was suspicious in half a letter, and said, "Who knows if it's true or not." ”

Old Man Lu smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

During the Chinese New Year, the performance of this granddaughter-in-law was really unpleasant.

Fortunately, no one has the same knowledge as her, and in order to please the old man, and out of curiosity, they all gathered around, took the talisman seal from the old man Lu's hand, and looked at this thing with great curiosity in his hand? There are some dark red sè lines on it, and the shape of the composition seems to be irregular......

Is it really worth tens of thousands, and there is no market?

After distributing the talismans, the old man got up and said, "Let's eat." ”

A few people hurriedly worked to eat Zhang Luo's meal, and a large round table was also set up in the living room, and Lu Lulu and their generation accompanied Mr. Lu to eat in the living room: the others went to the dining table on the other side of the restaurant to eat and sat at the table just holding up the wine glass, and the old man Lu suddenly thought of something, so he instructed the restaurant: "Children under two years old, don't wear the talisman directly on your body, you have to boil it, and I will tell you how to boil it after eating." ”

In the bedroom opposite the dining room, Jia Ting, who was about to put on the talisman seal for the child, shuddered, quickly took the talisman back into her pocket, and walked out with the child in her arms.

At that time, everyone already knew what Jia Ting was doing in that bedroom with the child.

It was past four o'clock in the afternoon.

He Shang, the eldest son of the Huazhong City Public Security Bureau's family, came to the house to pay New Year's greetings!

This made Ma Mingquan and Li Mei feel a little flattered, you must know that no matter how good the current economic conditions of their family are, from the traditional mentality, they are not as good as the status of the official family from the businessman.

And at this time period, I don't know how to entertain He Shang......

The good thing is that it is. He Shang didn't make their family so embarrassed, and after sitting at home and chatting a few words, he got up and said that he was going to Li Hong's house to pay a New Year's greeting, and then he had to rush back to Central China City, he said with a smile: "New Year, sometimes it's busier than usual." ”

This is true, Ma Liang deeply agrees.

It's just that Ma Liang really didn't expect He Chamber of Commerce to come to his house on the first day of the New Year. It made him feel a little sorry and unhappy.

Originally, he and Li Yongchao had already discussed how to go to the merchant on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year to pay New Year's greetings, but the two drove around the township and county to pay their respects to the New Year, and the time was not enough, and Ma Liang had to go to Old Man Lu's house first. Therefore, he and Li Yongchao decided where to go tomorrow

If you go in the afternoon, it is not convenient. Who doesn't drink at noon?

Drunk driving is not a no-go.

I never thought that the other businessman would rush ahead of them and come to the house to pay New Year's greetings.

Ma Liang can have such a mentality, let alone Li Yongchao Li Yongchao knows very well in his heart that although he has superior family conditions and can be regarded as getting ahead in the county, compared with He Shang's identity, it is still not enough. And He Shang was able to personally visit his home to pay New Year's greetings to his father......

To put it bluntly, it was because He Shang wanted to go to Ma Liang's house to pay New Year's greetings, and by the way, he went to pay New Year's greetings to Chairman Li Hong and Li.

Ma Liang naturally accompanied He Shang to Li Yongchao's house.

As Shang said himself, he didn't stay at Li Yongchao's house for long, and after sitting idle for a while, he politely refused the banquet and hospitality of Li Hong and Li Yongchao's father and son, and said goodbye and left with a smile.

When he got in the car and was about to leave, He Shang suddenly thought of something, and said to Ma Liang through the Feng window: "Liangzi, do you have time on the sixth day of the first month?" ”

"Huh?" Ma Liang smiled and said, "I want to go to Beijing on the sixth day of junior high school." ”

"Oh, Mr. Xue called me before, saying that he was thinking about coming to Central China City on the sixth day of the new year" He Shang thought for a moment and said, "Since you don't have time, then let me tell her." ”

Ma Liang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call Mr. Xue for New Year's greetings in a while." ”

After seeing He Shang drive away, Ma Liang said a few polite words to Li Yongchao and Li Hong, and pulled Xiaobai to his home.

At this time, many children in the village were running and jumping happily on the street, and the sound of crackling firecrackers rang out from time to time.

Brother Liang, do I want to go to my godmother this year to pay New Year's greetings? ”

"Huh? Do you want to go? ”

"Okay, just make a phone call." Xiaobai pursed his lips, suddenly diverted the topic, dragged Ma Liang to the store, and said excitedly: "Brother Liang, buy me a few huā cannons, you see those children have them, I also want to have fun."

"What are you doing with that girl!"

"No..."

In the end, he couldn't resist Xiaobai's begging, Ma Liang agreed to come down and take Xiaobai to the village

The store bought a few huā cannons that rang when they were dropped. I also accompanied Xiaobai on the street for more than half an hour. Then the brother and sister returned home satisfied.

If it weren't for He Shang mentioning that Xue Shiyuan was coming today, Ma Liang would have really forgotten Xiaobai's godmother.

Think about it, since I promised to let Xiaobai recognize Xue Shiyuan as my godmother, from the perspective of etiquette, Xiaobai must always give Xue Shiyuan a New Year's greeting for this big New Year.

The general manager called early in the morning to greet the New Year, and even let the little guy who had just babbling shouted several times on the phone before he made up a sentence "Godfather, New Year, good, goodbye, New Year, la", this word was a meal, and Zhu Mingyi kuāng said word by word next to him.

It's like *Ming Yi kuāng Ma Ji is a godson.

So now that I think about it, Ma Liang found that he was really negligent of many people and love, and when he ran around to greet the New Year in the morning, he also called several college roommates to pay New Year's greetings, and then called Jiang Biyun and Wei Miao respectively. When I called Jiang Biyun, it was better, the two of them really chatted and joked with each other, and Ma Liang's initiative made Jiang Biyun extremely happy, and even apologized to Ma Liang for the first time, because he didn't call Ma Liang first, so when he called Wei Miao, the two of them didn't say anything, just said hello to each other, and then there was a little silence in the middle, Wei Miao asked: "When will you come to Beijing?" ”

"Well, the sixth day of junior high school."

Ma Liang did not hide it, because it was obvious that he was bound to go to Wu Qiong's house in Beijing to pay New Year's greetings, and Wei Miao could naturally guess it.

"Oh."

Next, the two didn't say anything more, said goodbye and hung up the phone.

I didn't even say the words "we went to Beijing to have a meal together".

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, light snow.

Start in the morning. Snow began to fall sporadically in the heavy sky, and the temperature seemed to drop by a few degrees all of a sudden.

Ma Liang politely declined the invitation of a few friends to play cards, and sat at home and read a book peacefully.

For a lot of people. On the fifth and sixth days of the first lunar month, this year is equivalent to the end of the year, such as the opening of stores, as well as those migrant workers who go out to work, as well as many people from enterprises and institutions, the work of the new year will be fully launched.

Hongguang Cable Factory has been put into production again in the fourth year of the first year.

At more than ten o'clock, Ma Liang's mobile phone rang, and he looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Xue Shiyuan calling.

Pressing the answer button, Ma Liang smiled and said, "Mr. Xue, hello." ”

Judge... Ma, are you at home with Xiaobai? ”

"Well, here it is."

"That's good, I'm here uninvited this time, and He Shang and I will come to your village in a while..............."

Ma Liang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "That's really a distinguished guest, don't be too fast, I have to clean the house quickly." ”

"Hehe, see you later."

Hung up the phone, Ma Liang shook his head with some tears and laughter, got up and walked outside. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, he called Xue Shiyuan to pay New Year's greetings, and asked Xiaobai to chat with Xue Shiyuan in person. Unexpectedly, Xue Shiyuan would change his plan..., and came to Central China City one day early.

Ma Liang didn't think that Xue Shiyuan only came to Huazhong City to visit Xiaobai.

Because a character of Xue Shiyuan's status will never spend his time on this intimate relationship. In Ma Liang's view, Xue Shiyuan should have come to Huazhong City under the banner of discussing some business with Lu Yanyun, the chairman of Yum Group, to pay New Year's greetings to the old man of the Lu family.

This is the way of interpersonal relationships, Lu Lianyun is a partner and a big bull, and Lu Lianyun's brother is a high-ranking official in the province, even better.

In the living room, Xiaobai was leaning on Li Mei's arms, watching TV together.

Now Xiaobai has really become the most precious existence in the family, and people often say that the girl is her mother's little padded jacket. This is not false at all, look at the current Xiaobai, while watching TV, he also withdrew the jiāo like a record of melon seeds for Li Mei to eat, and Li Mei is not allowed to record it herself, but Li Mei can be happy.

"Bai, your godmother will be here in a while." Ma Liang stepped forward with a smile and said.

"Huh? Are you sure? Xiaobai tilted his neck and said with a smile: "Godmother is better than kissing mother." ”

As he spoke, Xiaobai hugged Li Mei's neck and kissed her face fiercely!

Li Mei couldn't be happy, and said, "When did Xiaobai recognize his godmother?" I've never heard you mention it" is reasonable, as if she is not a godmother, but really Xiaobai's own mother.

"A big boss in Tangshan, named Xue Shiyuan, is a typical strong woman and billionaire." Ma Liang explained with a smile: "When I first received Xiaobai last year. happened to be with Xue Shiyuan to talk about business, and when she saw Xiaobai, she didn't like it, so she recognized it as her goddaughter.

Later, I took it seriously, I thought that people were just saying some polite words, but I never thought that Xue Shiyuan was serious. ”

"You kid, where is there anyone who casually recognizes his relatives?" Li Mei was disgusted, then quickly got up and walked to the back room, and said, "The guest will be here in a while, and you have to wake up your father." ”

Ma Mingquan was on the night shift yesterday, so he hasn't gotten up yet.

The power plant didn't have a holiday during the Chinese New Year.

Speaking of this incident, it really made Ma Liang quite helpless. Even if the family's economic conditions are good now, it is not bad for my father's salary of thousands of yuan a month. Not to mention anything else, now the old man smokes every day is soft China, but he still drives a motorcycle to work.

No one can persuade them.

Ma Liang didn't persuade him much about this, and his father was at work, so it wasn't a matter for him to be idle all of a sudden.

Ma Mingquan was woken up from his sleep and learned that Xiaobai's godmother would arrive in a while, and she was a billionaire, so he hurriedly dressed and prepared to wash up.

I didn't think that as soon as I walked out, there was already a sound of talking outside.

The guests are already coming into the house.

yes, my face was washed.

A family of four hurriedly walked out of the hall door to greet them.

I saw Xue Shiyuan, who was wearing a black coat and stepping on high heels, and was graceful and luxurious, accompanied by He Shang and his secretary, and entered the courtyard with a smile.

"Hello Mr. Xue."

Ma Liang strode forward and reached out to shake Nose Shiyuan.

Xiaobai followed closely, looking up at his little face, extremely cute and extremely sweet and greasy: "Happy New Year, godmother!" ”

"Hey, Xiaobai is so good." Xue Shiyuan bent down and reached out to hug Xiaobai, while holding Xiaobai's cheek a few times with a bit of numbness, he kissed it fiercely, then turned his head to take the red envelope that had been prepared from the secretary's hand, stuffed it into Xiaobai's hand, and said, "Damn, good girl, this is the New Year's money, take it!" ”

Thank you, godmother. ”

"Good ......"

Xue Shiyuan, who seemed to have just recovered from the excitement of seeing her goddaughter, hugged Xiaobai and didn't let go, turned her head and smiled and said, "This is the eldest brother and sister-in-law, right?" Happy New Year, Happy New Year..............."

"Okay, all right." Li Mei hurriedly said: "Quick, quick, it's cold outside, go and sit inside." ”

A few people walked into the house laughing and laughing.

Ma Liang followed at the end and looked at Xiaobai's innocent face in Xue Shiyuan's arms, and couldn't help pouting, and made an calculation in his heart~ Okay, once upon a time, after graduating and entering the society, it would be good to earn 180,000 yuan a year. But now, not to mention how much money you have, how much money did you earn in the New Year? Not to mention that he and his parents and uncle, Li Hong gave the New Year's money, only on the first day of the Lunar New Year, at Mr. Lu's house, Lu Lao gave 10,000 yuan, Lu Lulu gave 1,000 yuan in the red envelope, and in the bank card Lu Lianyun gave, 80,000 eight! and those fù girls of the Lu family, adding up to more than 10,000!

Today, look at the thin red envelope given by Xue Shiyuan......

It must be a bank card too!

Good boys.

Xue Shiyuan came this time, as if she was really just to see Xiaobai, but she didn't plan to stay longer, and after politely rejecting Ma Mingquan and Li Mei's hospitality, she was about to say goodbye and leave, and she had to go to Central China City.

But before leaving, she said in a consultative voice, "Pony, let's go to the city together?"

Let Xiaobai also accompany me more. ”

Ma Liang was not easy to refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

It's nothing more than a matter of having a meal at noon.

I made a call to An Bingpan, who was staying in the cable factory, and soon An Bingpan drove over, and a group of three cars drove towards Central China City.

As Ma Liang thought, Xue Shiyuan came to Huazhong City to pay homage to Old Man Lu for a New Year.

They had already been to Old Man Lu's house.

And at noon today, He Shang booked a box at the Central China Hotel to set up a banquet to entertain Xue Shiyuan, and Lu Lianyun would also go.

Located at the intersection of Renmin Road and Zhonghua Street, less than 200 meters away from the municipal government, Huazhong Hotel is the best five-star hotel in Central China.

Around noon, vehicles were parked outside the hotel.

After Ma Liang got out of the car, he took Xiaobai's hand and walked towards the hotel with a smile. An Bingpan followed him, looking around dutifully.

Suddenly, An Bingpan frowned.

He saw an old man.

An old man scavenging at the parking lot in front of the hotel on the side of the road, bent down to pick up the drink bottles thrown away by pedestrians on the side of the road.

This would have been nothing surprising.

But An Bingpan felt that this old man who was scavenging was very familiar, and he must have seen it somewhere.

He instinctively felt that something was wrong with this old man, it stands to reason that he was just an old man scavenging, and there is no shortage of these people in society today, even if he has seen it, it is not unusual.

Ma Liang noticed the abnormality of An Bingpan's gods, slowed down a little, and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"That old man, I think I've seen it somewhere." An Bingpan said very seriously.

Ma Liang followed An Bingpan's line of sight, and couldn't help laughing: "An old man scavenging waste, I've seen a lot of strange things, hehe." ”

An Bingpan nodded, as if he was really making a fuss.

As they spoke, they had already entered the hotel.

Xiaobai stopped Ma Liang very naughtily, raised his arm and shouted: "Brother Liang, hug!" ”

Ma Liang was stunned for a moment, and then hugged Xiao Bai, he noticed that Xiao Bai made a look at him, as if he had something to say.

Sure enough, Xiao Bai put his arms around his neck and leaned into his ear, and whispered: "Brother Liang, that old man outside is a warlock!" ”

"Huh?"

Ma Liang was immediately stunned, his footsteps stopped, and he turned his head to look out through the wide glass door, and saw that the old man who was scavenging was walking on the side of the road with staggering steps, looking for valuable things. On his body, he also carried a worn-out woven bag filled with plastic bottles ......@.
