Chapter 1 1.He's Not Here?
Tang Fei stared blankly at the empty street corner and let out a sigh for a long time.
He had been squatting here for three days in a row, but the fortune-telling stall that had been on the corner had never reappeared.
As a visiting professor of psychology at L University, Tang Fei is actually very busy, and the reason why he spent three days here is because he is waiting for someone - a young man who sets up a fortune-telling stall on the street corner very close to S University. For no other reason, the fifth anniversary party of the graduation of the 09 psychology class was about to be held, and a few classmates could not be contacted, so this difficult task was handed over to him, who had the most extensive connections in L City.
There is a person who has never been in contact with others since graduation, and these other people include him; But he knew that this person was in this place, because every day for the past five years, he had to stand in the blind corner of the street for half an hour, watching this person collect the stall and go home.
That man goes out every day, rain or shine.
However, the young man who was tired and sick and had to go out of the stall did not appear for three consecutive days, as if he knew that he was going to come and disappear on his own initiative.
He finally found a reason to get closer, but the young fortune teller seemed to have disappeared, and even if he used his connections, he couldn't find out his whereabouts.
The cabbage that has been guarded for five years is not known to be arched by the pig when it comes to harvesting. The thought of this possibility made his back stiffen.
Tang Fei raised his hand and pressed his sore brow, a little regretful for his recklessness.
"Young man, I see that you have been here for three days, are you also waiting for someone?" Suddenly, the voice of a middle-aged woman sounded behind him.
Tang Fei: "? ”
Someone was talking behind Leng Buding, Professor Tang was secretly annoyed that he was too unsuspecting to even notice that someone was approaching, and when he turned around, he saw a middle-aged woman dressed plainly. The woman is about sixty, looks younger than her actual age, and is dressed decently, except for a pair of gold ear flowers that have been carefully dyed on three sides, she does not wear other jewelry, the cultural level is not easy to say, but you can see at a glance that the temper is not good.
Overall, she is a gentle old aunt.
The old aunt didn't care about Tang Fei's attitude, but seeing that Tang Fei didn't immediately deny it, she asked again: "Did you also let the young man who set up a stall here tell his fortune?" ”
Tang Fei: "? "Could it be that this person has been cheated and turned back to turn over old accounts?
The old aunt smiled and began to chatter: "It seems that you are similar to our family." He glanced at Tang Fei with eyes that I understood and understood, "I won't tell you, I feel ashamed: this young man told my son's fortune at the beginning, saying that my son and that wife can't have children, and they have to leave, and they can only see their children after 40, at least a dragon and phoenix fetus." At that time, my son was 38 years old and his daughter-in-law was newly married and in love, and at that time, I was so angry that I didn't give him the fortune-telling money, and I kicked him when he opened his eyes. When I went back to tell my daughter-in-law, she also had a mustard in her heart, and she actually left my son half a year ago, so angry that I took a broom to smoke the child again. ”
At this time, Tang Fei reacted, probably calculated her accurately but didn't believe it. People always like to listen to good words, but most of the things they hear at the time don't like to hear.
Some people just like to be amorous, and they can clearly say "the marriage is bumpy, there is a divorce, and the heirs are flourishing after forty, so you don't have to worry" and then persuade a little to relax, he prefers to say so carefully.
Thinking of this, as if affirming his opinion, Tang Fei nodded.
Seeing Tang Fei nodding, the old aunt thought he was curious: "I didn't expect that my son had already gotten along with others outside, that woman still has a married man, and it is because I am sorry for my daughter-in-law that I am doubly good to her, think about it carefully, how can there be such a show of affection everywhere when I get married, my son is ashamed that he has left the house, and the house and car are left to the daughter-in-law." You know what? ”
"......" Tang Fei felt that this involved a moral level, and there was such a lesson from the past, he didn't know how to talk, so he could only look at the old aunt with an inquiring gaze.
The old aunt took his hand diligently: "I didn't expect the young man to be right, when my son divorced, the woman's husband also died, and the two quietly received the certificate, only more than four months, this new daughter-in-law gave birth to a pair of big fat grandsons, and the days are really after my son is forty years old." The more she spoke, the more excited she became, "I haven't only found one or two fortune tellers, but even if it's a god with a bunch of pennants, I've never seen such an accurate calculation, what kind of blind calculation is this, it's just a divine calculation!" No, it's heavenly. ”
Tang Fei thought to himself, that kid really has two or two skills. Feeling the weight on the old aunt's wrist, she saw a bulging shopping bag: "Then ...... you"
"Of course, it's the grandson's full moon, so he has the cheekiness to send red eggs, and then double the previous fortune-telling money." The old aunt was very happy, and people were happy to talk a lot, "When I left, I said it, if it was not accurate, I saw him hit once and again, but he said that it was accurate, and asked me to give 20,000, and afterwards I came to see it every three or five times, he was there, and I told me that I would not run away." I'm busy serving the confinement child, and people have said that they have come to thank him for the past two days, and I have saved all the money in the card, and I have waited here for three days but I have not seen anyone else......"
Listening to others praising his cabbage, Professor Tang felt that he really had a vision, a vision!
"I'll tell you the truth, he is my student, and he usually sets up a stall here, I often come to take a look, he is indeed a little busy these days, and he didn't come out in time. I'll go back to his house, things...... I'll take it for you? Tang Fei raised his eyebrows, he had already inquired about the address, and now he even had a reason to come to the door.
The old aunt waved her hand again and again: "Then how can it be done, you must apologize in person." ”
Tang Fei thought for a while: "Otherwise, if you give me a contact information, I will bring things over for you first, so as not to delay your work, and let him contact you himself to ask for the password." As he spoke, his business card had been stuffed into the old aunt's hand.
The old aunt couldn't shirk when she saw his enthusiasm: "That's ...... All right. Out of caution, she still only gave the happy egg, but the card was taken back into her pocket along with the business card.
Professor Tang didn't say anything, but always smiled warmly. His gaze was gentle, but he seemed to have the ability to see through people's hearts, and the old aunt was ashamed of herself, and she didn't dare to look at him, so she could only turn her gaze to the business card.
"Wow! I didn't expect you to be my son, the owner of their head office. ”
When Tang Fei heard this, he was happy: "You relax, he lives alone, maybe he didn't come out of the stall when he caught a cold in the autumn season." You go back first and get busy, I will let more sisters-in-law and wives take a month of maternity leave, it is not easy to give birth at an older age, and I have to rest for a few more days. ”
The old aunt thanked her repeatedly, and gave Tang Fei another happy egg, and then ran happily to the next family.
Tang Fei weighed the two small bags in his hand. I haven't been in that boy's house yet. ’
