Chapter 196: The Exaggerated Fortune Teller
"Second brother, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Xinyi turned around and asked in a low voice.
"It's nothing, anyway, you just send him away." An Pengfei glared at the man and said to Jiang Xinyi again.
"You can't know him, do you?" Jiang Xinyi asked suspiciously.
As soon as An Pengfei wanted to deny it, the man spoke; "Xiao An, you are too inauthentic, you ran to the capital to enjoy the happiness by yourself, and you don't care about my brother." The man was not angry, and ran his fingers at the cotton in the hole in his sleeve.
"Do you know this big brother? Did you come to him? Didn't you come to apply for a job? Jiang Xinyi hurriedly asked.
"Jiang Gongzi, don't get me wrong, I just saw the notice and came to you." The man hastened to explain. He was very satisfied when he saw that Jiang Xinyi was not disgusted with himself because of the tattered clothes he was wearing. As he spoke, he glanced at An Pengfei.
"Since you know the second brother, you must also be from the rivers and lakes, don't you feel condescending to me when you come to me?" Jiang Xinyi asked with a smile.
"What is Qu Cai, Jiang Gongzi don't laugh at me, I'm also tired of the things on the rivers and lakes, I don't know if Gongzi will take you in?" The man asked directly.
"You're a robber who kills people and sets fires, aren't you?" Jiang Xinyi asked in a low voice.
"I swear to God, no." The man replied in a knowing whisper.
"Then you're a flower thief, aren't you?" Jiang Xinyi teased him in a low voice.
"Absolutely not, I'm still a virgin." The man replied in a serious whisper.
"If you enter this house, you have to obey my orders, you are not so chic and comfortable in the rivers and lakes, can you do it?" Jiang Xinyi asked again.
"Hehe, don't worry, this Jiang Gongzi, this kid can stay here, I can do it, and I will definitely not cause trouble for you." The man pointed his finger at An Pengfei on the side and said.
"Then are you good at martial arts?" Jiang Xinyi asked excitedly.
"How can I say this, except for this kid, there are really few people in the rivers and lakes who are my opponents." The man said confidently.
"Then you are very light, aren't you?" Jiang Xinyi asked again.
"Light work? This can be spelled with him. The man replied with a smile.
Great, Jiang Xinyi is very satisfied, very satisfied, she finally recruited a powerful one, whoever dares to come to trouble in the future, let them look good, hum!
"Jiang Gongzi, did you agree to take it in?" Seeing Jiang Xinyi's expression, the man tried to ask.
"However, there is a question I want to state in advance, and you can make a decision after listening to it." Jiang Xinyi reminded him.
"Don't worry, I won't drink too much in the house, and I won't cause trouble outside and cause you trouble." The man patted his chest and said.
"It's not a problem, if you work here with me, just take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and don't pay wages, are you willing to do it?" Jiang Xinyi asked with a grin.
"Yi Xin, don't worry, he lacks nothing but silver, maybe you can't turn over your funds, and he will be generous." An Pengfei understood on the side that this person Jiang Xinyi had taken a fancy to him, and couldn't help but "interject" and say.
"Hehe, Xiao An is right, I don't lack money, as long as I can stay here." The man said with a smile.
"Okay, that's it, you can come over the day after tomorrow, but shouldn't you tell me what your name is, or what should I call you?" Jiang Xinyi moved the pen and paper in front of her forward.
The man picked up the pen, wrote a few words with a smile, and then said goodbye to Jiang Xinyi very chicly, and said to An Pengfei with a wicked smile; "Xiao An, see you the day after tomorrow." Then he hummed a little song and left.
"Shangguan Hong?" Jiang Xinyi chattered.
"What? This guy even told you the name? An Pengfei heard Jiang Xinyi's chatter, and walked over to pick up the paper and read it.
"What's wrong? Is it + passion fake, then it doesn't matter. Jiang Xinyi said disappreciably.
"It's true, it's a name that only a few of us know, but he told you." An Pengfei said in disbelief.
"This shows that people think I'm a trustworthy person, unlike someone, who has been dating for a lifetime, and his eyes are still flowery." Jiang Xinyi couldn't help but give him another slap.
It's over, this girl really holds a grudge. An Pengfei felt that his forehead was about to sweat.
"Xiaohuai, so well-behaved, let's go to dinner." Jiang Xinyi pinched the nose of Xiaohuai, who was sitting in her arms, and said.
Xiaohuai nodded obediently, it was almost noon, except for going to urinate with An Pengfei once, he really never left Jiang Xinyi's sight, and he had been sitting quietly on Jiang Xinyi's lap, which made it difficult for people not to feel distressed.
Lunch was eaten in a small shop nearby, Jiang Xinyi didn't even drink wine, and when she was full, she picked up Xiaohuai and urged An Pengfei and Haizi to hurry back to the house, she was afraid that Xiaoping and Xiaohui would not be there if they came.
After waiting in the house for an afternoon, no one came to apply, let alone Xiaoping and Xiaohui.
Fortunately, the young man from the furniture store came to tell him that the customized things had been driven out, so Jiang Xinyi went to pay the money.
After everything was delivered, those small workers placed all the furniture according to Jiang Xinyi's instructions. Jiang Xinyi checked it again, and then went to the street again, transported the bedding and customized clothes back, and customized a few sets of women's new clothes, and also customized a set for Xiaohuai.
Jiang Xinyi asked the female shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear store to help, temporarily took care of a few mothers-in-law, went back to the house together, wiped the furniture and everything, and then put the bedding and hung the curtains.
The quilts and curtains of the male workers are all light blue, and the quilts and curtains of the female workers are pink. Male and female workers also live in two courtyards.
Jiang Xinyi looked east and west, thinking about what kind of atmosphere it would be when the yard was full of people!
"Yi Xin, this house is almost cleaned up, when will we move here?" An Pengfei asked behind Jiang Xinyi.
"Let's go to the nearby fortune teller booth and pick a good day." Jiang Xinyi replied that she couldn't wait to move in, although Jiang Xinyi was not "superstitious", but housewarming was a big event, and it was also auspicious.
After getting into the carriage and heading to the street, Haizi saw a fortune teller stall at an intersection and stopped the carriage.
Jiang Xinyi got out of the carriage first, and An Pengfei also followed with Xiaohuai in his arms.
"Are the two sons looking at faces or fortune tellers?" The hexagram stall is an old man with a white beard, who looks like the Tai Bai Xing in Journey to the West.
"Old gentleman, we don't look at each other, we don't tell our fortunes, and we want to pick a good day to move in to the newly bought house." Jiang Xinyi sat down as she spoke.
The old gentleman asked the direction, and then asked Jiang Xinyi's eight characters, and Jiang Xinyi told him the eight characters of his birthday in modern times.
The old gentleman didn't turn over the yellow calendar, pinched his fingers, and chose three good days, wrote them on paper and handed them to Jiang Xinyi, the latest day is the day after tomorrow.
"Old gentleman, the previous owners of the house I bought died unexpectedly, and the people in the capital said that the house was a murderous house, I don't know if there was anything to say?" Jiang Xinyi asked curiously, wanting to hear how he would answer herself, anyway, in her impression, fortune tellers rely on their mouths to eat and cheat money.
"If you want to ask this, I'm afraid you have to ask the old gentleman to go to the house to have a look." An Pengfei said on the side.
"No need, no need, just rest assured, judging from your eight characters, Childe is a lucky star on his head, no matter what the environment, there will be no danger and danger, and the danger will be turned into a disaster. Moreover, Childe has a master around him to help him, so he doesn't need to worry about anything. The old gentleman stroked his beard and smiled.
"Did you hear me, I'm Fuxing." Jiang Xinyi said triumphantly to An Pengfei. Anyway, she doesn't care if this old gentleman is deceiving people by saying nice things, she just needs to feel comfortable.
Jiang Xinyi picked up the purse and wanted to take out the silver, but the old gentleman immediately opened his mouth to stop it; "The son doesn't need to pay the silver, the old man has something to ask for."
"What's the matter, old man, please tell me." Jiang Xinyi asked curiously, she couldn't think of anything she could help him.
"The old man dares to see Childe's palmistry, I wonder if Childe can agree?" The old gentleman said.
When Jiang Xinyi heard this, she looked down at her hand, and hesitated to let him see it? He doesn't know how to take the pulse, so he shouldn't find out that he is a woman.
Let's see that this old gentleman is really pleasing to the eye, so let him see it. Thinking of this, Jiang Xinyi stretched out her hand, but as soon as she reached halfway, she quickly retracted it.
"Male left, female right, I forgot, I'm sorry." Jiang Xinyi smiled and stretched out her left hand.
The old gentleman hurriedly wiped his hand on the placket of his clothes, and then carefully held Jiang Xinyi's hand as if he had found a treasure, and watched it intently.
An Pengfei seemed to be more curious than Jiang Xinyi, and he was still nervous, so he also stepped forward and clinged to the stall tightly.
Jiang Xinyi wanted to hear what the old gentleman could say, "Childe's hand is peculiar, show me that hand again." The old gentleman said to Jiang Xinyi with a smile.
Jiang Xinyi was also embarrassed to refuse, so she made up her mind and changed her hand.
Time seemed to stand still for the old gentleman. I saw him staring at his hands, motionless, like a wax figure.
"Old sir, old sir?" Jiang Xinyi shouted softly.
There was no reaction from the person on the other side.
Jiang Xinyi looked up at An Pengfei and asked; "Did the old gentleman use a secret weapon to point the 'acupoint'?" She couldn't pull her hand back if she wanted to, she was clutched tightly.
An Pengfei also felt strange, and just wanted to put down Xiaohuai and check the old man's body. I saw that the old gentleman's eyes began to move, and he looked at Jiang Xinyi excitedly.
"Are you alright, old sir?" Jiang Xinyi asked as she withdrew her scratched hand.
The old gentleman didn't speak, stood up and left the stall, walked in front of Jiang Xinyi, and sorted out his military appearance from the gray bun, to the placket, the hem of the shirt to the sleeves, just like a soldier standing in front of the mirror when he went out.
Then he bowed to Jiang Xinyi three times respectfully.
"What are you, sir?" Jiang Xinyi asked puzzledly, could it be that she was the reincarnation of some immortal in the sky? How could it be so exaggerated?
